Battering the offerings of Politis and Hayes for total of l } hits, with plenty of extra base hits squeezed in, Jack Tobin's Corbin Red Sox burie d the kensington team by a score of 11-4 in a game played in kensington yesterday.
 Wolfe on the mound for the Red Sox pitched a nice game, never being in danger. He turned back the first II men to face him in order.

 RIVALS AND WIN
Sluesins Locals Trounce Derby Boys 17 to 5.

The New Britain Falcons came through with another win yesterday when they took the Derby Falcons into camp by a score of II to and, although it was a one-sided game, 1t was only because the Derby boys did not have the services of an efficient pitcher. In the field and at bat they were excellent and with the one ex- ception mentioned gave the locals . good battle.
 klatka, the New Britain first base man, distinguished himself by sock ing out a home run, and Sheehau also stepped into the limelight as swat ter when he got four hits in six trips -to the plate and scored three runs. Kopec also hit for 500 with two hits in four time us Some flashy fielding plays were pulled off by Kania. What, while less spectacular, is nevertheless no less worthy of mention, is the fact that the Falcons played errorlsss ball.
 The Derby boys collected ten hits off Kania's offerings, but fast fielding behind the pitcher kept these from developing into more than five runs. Magic, the Derby third sacker. played a fino game and hit well, and An drews and Macinski also played a good game for the losers,
 Following is the box score of the rsf1,n,

New York, June 50.--A surprising
 spurt by Washington, which gained
 four full games and advanced from l fourth place in the American League ! into first, with two-game lead, tenn porariy produced leader among the seven contending clubs whose fluxing provided the most interesting maior 1 league week of recent years. l Tho senatorial warriors, who have won 1 6 games of their last 19 games. 1 were riraled in the National by the Giants, who increased their lead over | Chicago from one and one-half to | four and ono-half games, and by the
 Pirates, who have gradually crept to
 within one and one-half games of 1 Brooklyn in third and are only four behind Chicago in second.
 The Giants reached the peak of winning streak Of 10 games on Tues day and have won 1S of their last i5 games Pittsburgh, playing prob- ably the most perfect baseball in either organization, Is launched upon winning cruise which totaled seven games today and which has account eh for i3 victories in the last i7 games.
 Washington's suddenly discovered ability IS largely credited to the uni- flying influence Of Harris, a young manager who has transformed a hand Of veterans into potential champions. New York ha,ted its way to its trinmphs behind steady stream Of reliable pitching by the previously discreditcd staff. Four youngsters, Wright Cuyler, Krsmer and ldc have been prominent in pittsburg's progress.
 The worlds champions and Cubs, strongest contendcrs heretofore. went into q slump with their pitchers. Chi cago did moi win a game. Tho Yankees lost six straight and feil from first to fourth but crcpt back 10 third again by taking three straight from tho Red Sox who have only partially recovered from the disastrous re- action from their long struggle at the top Hith the Yankees and Detroit.
 The Tyrers held even and CleNe- land. though somewhat shaken up in tho later part of the week. eame back strong today. Cincinnati, by taking a double header from St. Louis yester- day, reported its best record in weeks. Brooklyns pitchers performed indif- ferenily with q consequent blight on their teams success.
 Good weather allowed the teams to pay off many postponed games. The Americans participated in g contests and the Nationals in 28.

LOSS IS SLIGHT
 AS BONDS DRIFT
Slow Trading Reacts On New Financing-FOr-
 eigns Active

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Bond prices drifted aimlessly last week in the dull est market sessions of the year. Re actionary tendencies predominated but were not pronounced and when the net changes for the week were chalked up losses generally were found to be slight.
 Diminishing trading activity was ac companied by a Hull in new financing with offerings for the week approxi- mating $45,000,O0O, as compared with more than $75,OOO,O ,OO0 the week before. The most important issue of the week was a $10,O00,0O0 loan to the Paris Orleans. railroad. Other foreign financ- ing in which the public did not partici- pate included a $3,OOO,OOO short term loan granted by banking group to Jugo-slavia for railroad construction, and the purchase by banks of $2, POO, 900 notes of the Paris-Lyons-Medite railroad.
 St. Paul Stocks Break.
 Chief trading interest centered in a sharp break in St. Paul railway bonds, following publication of rumors that the road would re-adjust it's financial structure and scale down its capital in order to meet maturities of about $48,- OOO,OOO next year. On official denial of these reports the issues rallied slight ly but closed the week with net losses of l to points.
 Renewal of the $1O0,00O,O 900 credit granted by J. P. Morgan and company to the Bank of France last March to stabilize the franc was one of the out standing developments of the week. French obligations responded to the an- nouncement on the theory that exten- sion of the credit for another six months would place France in better posi- tion to obtain a long term loan of be- tween $1OO,OOO,OO0 and $200,0OOOOO later in the year.
 Berlin Wants Aid.
 Prospective foreign borrowers in this market after the Notation of the forth coming German loan include the Berlin city government and the republic of Czecho-slovakia, which proposes to con solidate it's floating debt. Important developments in connection with the German financing were reports from abroad that it would be offered on dollar basis and that French banks would assume the portion of 10000, ,OOO marks allotted to France.
 The United States theasury's offering of $35O, 100000 in certificates of indebt, edness was Oversubscribed despite the unusually low interest rate of 2A per cent for one-year maturity.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-09-15

$1O0,000,000 cerdit that the Morgan syndicate had granted to France had stimulating effect on the franc and helped to steady the whole market. Those who keep in close touch with in- ternational developments doubt whether the $200,00O,O00 loan for Germany en- visaged in the Dawes report, will make it's appearance before November.

CAR IOADINGS MAKE RECORD
 FOR THE YEAR
Steel Orders Reflect Gradual Improvement
 In Conditions
lBy Associated Prsssl

NEW YORK, Sept. >14.-Continued signs of improving conditions in indus try and renewed ease .n the money market were matters of interest in busi- ness and financial quarters last week.
 That activity continued to be on a larger scale than existed during the summer was m. le evident by the lat est statistics of, ilroad car loadings. Continuing their Aconsistent increase, loadings rose in the week ended August 30 to I ,020,000 cars, exceeding the million car mark for the first time this year. It was considered significant that whereas loadings during the early sum- mer ran about II per cent below those in theNcorresponding period of last year, the showing is now only about ' per cent short of last years.
 <Steel Activity Increases
 Reports from the steel industry in dicated that the recovery of August, which resulted in an increase of 26 per cent in ingot production was being maintained. Conditions were rather spotty and prices still somewhat un- steady, but production continued in the neighborhood of 55 per cent of capacity.
 An increase in the Steel corporations s unified orders during August came as surprise. The increase was small one and left bookings sclose to the low est point since the war started; but another small decrease had been ex- pected. This turn followed decline that began last March.
 A sharp reaction in cotton prices at- tracted considerable attention. The gov ernment report on crop conditions as of September 1 reduced the previous estimate of outurn to 12,787 ,000 bales, or by 169,0O0 bales. Nevertheless sell ing soon came into the market and car ried prices off about 21a cents to new lows for the year. The spot commodity
