Chicago, Aug. 3l.-tP)--An unex-
pected decrease of the United States
visible supply total did good deal
to hit the wheat market today in the
late dealings. The decrease coming
at this time coincident with the COM
pletion Of the domestic spring wheat
harvest gave special to the slowness

the after harvest movement Of win

Chicago, Aug. 81 LR Wheat
prices took an early swing down
ward today influenced to a cOnsid-
cradle extent by a material decline
at Liverpool. The setback in values
abroad was in turn ascribed more or
less, to fine harvest weather in
Great Britain and other European
countries, and to reports Of favor
able crop conditions in Argentina,
some standing orders to stop losses
at various fixed limited were scored
into here by today's drop. The open
ing ! y to 2ls cents off with Deem
Der $l.5l4 to $l.52, and May $l.55A
to $l56, was followed only by u
single rally
Corn and oats were easy, sym
pathizng with wheat weakness. Re-
ceipts of corn were liberal, 324 cars.
After opening unchanged to &c low
er, December slls to Sls. cents corn
recovered and then went a little
above Saturdays finish.
Later corn was affected in some
degree by complaints of dry weather
northwest. Corn closed irregular l
12c net lower to Sc gain, December
s2ss to S2l2.
Oats started unchanged to Zee off,
December AIS to 4lg, and later held
near to the initia Figures.
Provisions were steady.
Subsequently, persisting buying on
the part Of houses with eastern con-
nections developed, and the market
showed noticeable upward trend.

Fielder Jones Conducts a

ball manager. The present generation
Of fans do not remember him, but the
Older element recall Jones when he
led the White Sex to a pennant in
1905 and later a worlds champion

That season the White Sox were
known as the ''hitless wonders" They
did not have a 800 hitter on the club.
but Nick Altroek, I'd Walsh. Doc
White, three great pitchers. stopped
the other fellows from making runs
while the Sox made their few hits
count for enough to win.
Jones was q great believer in inside
baseball. The Sox attack was mixed
up continually. When the rival club
was set for the hit and run, the Sox
hunted their way around or resorted
TO stealing bases. Few better base
running teams ever appeared in the
professional ranks
One of the favorite Sox stunts was
to wait out pitcher They would let
him pitch his hardest for seven in
n'nss, sometimes with one or two hits
off him, then bunch two or three hits
with base on balls and sacrifice
hit or two for enough runs TO win.
If the rivals made an error, the SOx
made the most Of 1t. Few teams We're
ever more alert for a slip on the part
Of the opposition It was nothing I'M
usual for them TO get a man to second
base on a Wild throw. They would
sacrifice him to third and either
squeezeplay him along or else come
through with a hit when il was need
ed \ base on balls or a hit batsman
always resulted In their favor,
With a run or two, behind classy

as well as the offense and knew how
to handle pitchers.
