Jordan or Woody English). Such a
deal would strengthen the Gas House

the former Dodger catcher would love
to be traded to some club with a

He quarters 80 to 500 horses and mules
as well as so to 60 miIch cows on it.

In addition to owning the Cards, Sam
Breadon also has title to half dozen

Creyhound's Dinner VIII
Cost You a Quarter

When in training the dogs are fed
only once day On days
when they are not racing they dine
at six o'clock On working
days (FlOrida has matineeS as well
as evening performances) they must
wait until after the races If
you have a greyhound to dinner you
should give him raw hamburger,
ground coarsely but with all the fat
removed, pearl barley, spinach, toma-
toes, oatmeal, dog biscuit and hOminy
grits You mix all this tOgeth-
er and, if it is a very special occasion,
you add few spoonsful of cod liver
oil The ordinary portion
weighs a pound and a quarter, al
though some owners dish out rations
as heavy as two pounds The
average daily cost for a dogs board
is % cents.
Sixty to sixty-four pounds is the
ideal racing weight for a dog, but
there have been winners all the way
from forty-seven to seventy-four
At the start Of the season the weight
of each dog is recorded When
competing in race his weight must
not vary by more than two pounds
from these recorded figures
Similarly only pound and a half
weight variation is permitted from
his last weight.

gest of all betting nights was at

incidentally, owners fatty deny the
widespread story that d greyhound
which has caught the rabbit no long
err is any good for racing and, in fact,
is practically broken-hearted at the
deception that has been practiced upon
him.
They say that the dogs are bred
and trained to depend upon their sight
and that, meanwhile, their sense of
smell has suffered.

says that it is much harder to hit now

the fast ones. Gabby Hartnett is

ley, owner of the Cubs. Augie Galan
ranks second and Billy Herman third.
The late Charles A. StOneham

baseball writer, now can keep score

curve balls too quickly. During his

Annual Report Halls Rise
in Consumption as Big
Stabi|izing Factor.
By the Associated Press.

6y the Associated PresS.
NEW YORK, May 15.-Increased
consumption Of crude oil and its prod
ucts, both at home and abroad, made
for stability in the petroleum industry
in 1885 and resulted in considerable
Improvement in the industry's stock
position, it was shown today in the
pamphlet report for 1885 Of the
Standard Oil Co. New Jersey)
Consumption of crude and products
in the United States in 1885 was $751;
GAS, 900 barrels, compared with 920,-
164, 900 barrels in 1884, the report,
signed by w. G. Teagle, president,
stated. Exports of crude and its prod
ucts totaled 12S,152,000 barrels, as
against l14,507, 900 in 1884, an in
crease Of 13,645,000 barrels, or 11.sl
per cent.
Domestic consumption of gasoline
in 1885 reached the highest level in
the company's history at 434,697 900
barrels.
Stocks Are Reduced.
Despite some excess production over
amounts allowed by conservation
authorities, the report stated, In
creased consumption brought a re-
duction in stocks of crude and prod
ucts Of 22,44S,00 barrels, leaving the
industry's stock position considerably
improved. based on its relation to
consumer demands, as compared with
the end of 1884.
Most refiners did better because OF
a stronger wholesale market which
prevailed generally throughout the
year, the report stated, although prices
of refinery products were below the
level warranted by the cost OF crude.
This same factor enabled marketing
divisions to make somewhat i'm
proved showing.
As previously reported, the company
and its subsidiaries made net profit
in 1886 Of s62,863,192, equal to s2.43
a share on the capital stock, compared
with s45,618,s60, or sl.76 a share, in
1884.
Discussing foreign conditions, Teegle
said the trend in some countries to-
ward control and limitation of trade
by restricting imports was even more
pronounced than in recent years"
Scores Tax Proposal.
Discussing domestic taxes. Teagle
said:
In the United States, in 1885, our
companies paid direct taxes of s40,-
417,813 and collected and paid $42,-
395, ,653 in consumer taxes on sales.
This made a tax bill on the domestic
business alone of $S2,8l3,466, which
is equivalent to $500 per share on this
company's outstanding stock"
Concerning the present new tax bill
before Congress he said:
1T definitely appears to your man
agement as economically unsound at
this stage Of business recovery, and
in the light of the Governments ex-
pressed desire that private business do
its utmost in providing work for the
unemployed, fundamentally to change
the tax system now and thus force the
modification Of established business
and financing principles for the sole
purpose Of providing additional
revenue"
