W! i‘« « u Pr» ,led Quickly and the position
sold below Tuesday’s close, letter the

support would be forthcoming whenever
necessary to prevent any material break.

on scattered room pressure.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS—Conditions remain
about as previously outlined in the local
spot market, except that factors ate now
offering a somewhat better assortment,
partly drawn from the shelf and partly
the result of a considerable overplus of
recent receipts. The demand for th*'* sta
ph- is very small, some few buyers mre
looking around among sample rooms, but
they are only taking on a few bales hc>*e
and there, and then only at prices . hadeu
in their favor. Sellers are not averse
to making slight concessions in order to
move stocks, though even that expedient
will hardly serve to accelerate die move
ment in advance of liberal new crop ar
rivals.
There was some little life in the con
tract department during the morning
hour, the result of early fluctuation*, but
as the market settled down and displayed
a definitely easier condition opci.aors ap
peared to lose interest and trading N li
away to the vanishing point. The open
ing was 1 s o 3 points below yesterday’s !
figures and the noon call level rn, new
crop commitments stood about in line
with the initial figures of the day, alter
a range of fluctuations covering 9 to 10
points.

Today’s Stock Market
By T. C. SHOTWELI.
NEW YORK. —Although American stocks were active anti showed
evidences of realizing sales in London, the opening in Wall street to
day was buoyant with all issues showing fractional advances. During
the first ten minutes of trading the gains were increased until they aver
aged nearly a point in Reading and Union Pacific. The Copper shares
also showed an improvement. Amalgamated gained 7-8, Anaconda 3-8 and
Smelters 1-2.
The Steel shares showed evidences of profit-taking at this point.
Realizing sales made their appearance, resultipg in losses of about 1-2
point from the high figures in the leaders.
The Steel shares were the chief sufferers In this movement, the com
mon declining l-l and the preferred 1-2. In connection with these if
sues, it was reported about the street that a junior partner of J. P.
Morgan is interested in a pool in the common stock and has a company
of a noted magaine editor and a director of the Steel trust who is now
in Europe, it is said they acquired their stock around 30, and as yet
show no disposition to take profits.
Westinghonse Electric was again active and strong, advancing
15 1-2 points during the first hour of trading. This makes a gain of
nearly 26 points in the last two days. It made a jump of five points on
one quotation of 10% shares.
in replying to a rumor that overtures had been made to the con
trolling interests of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron company by the
United Steel corporation. President ,T. M. Cadcn, of the Sloss-Shefflcld
company, who is in town, says that no proposition has been made to thf
controlling interest cf his company.
So far as he knows there are no negotiations pending.
Wheat and cotton were practically unchanged. On the curb trad
ing' was moderately active.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD.
IN THE SPOR TING WORLD
WIN CLARK GIVES HIS
TALE OF WOE
COLUMBIA, S. C. in connection
with Manager Win Clark's attempted
assassination by Rig Chief Render,
on the steamer Iroquois veßterday af
ternoon, while the boat was on the
high seas enroute to Charleston, a
letter from Clark whieh reached Sec
retary (libbs simultaneously with the
telegram telling of the stabbing may
be found interesting.
The big fellow was plainly much
exercised over the way his team was
shooting the-chutes, lie said:
“Dear Mr. Gtbbes—
’ Chops you think we have an aw
fill bail club, when we can't make a
run for five games.
"Thought 1 would write you a few
lines and tell you just hom it is hap
pening. First game In Savannah, 2
to 0; Buckley deliberately robbed us
by calling a ball that was at least
three fee* foul a fair hall and giving
Thiel a home run, bringing in a man
ahead of him. Valdois, Cote and Wag
non were all in the line and Rlalnlv
saw the ball wns foul. Salve, who
had held them to one hit up to that
time, was so infuriated at the decis
ion that he hit Buckley with his
glove and was fined $lO by Boyer.
. aldois also made a big kick and was
lined $lO. If ever there was a rotten
decision it was this same one and It
is a shame to lake a player’s money
for fighting for his club on such plays.
"it. looked to me and other people
as if Savannah had to win that game
anyway, having lost five out of six
away from home. The next day Volz
pitched a remarkable game and had
he been able to get one run up to the
twelfth inning would have won. Welsh
er started badly In his game, with
base on balls and then a wild throw
which helped them to tw o runs and
the game in the first inning,
won the game in the first inning.
The club is hitting very poorly,
with men on bases. That's why we
are losing. They are playing hard
ball and fielding in tine style, but the
hit we need for a run or two seems
never to come.
"We play two games today and 1
certainly hope we land one of them.
Several of our games we've played
without an error but I'm getting al
most. sick waiting for a run.
“If we 'can win today, 1 think wa
will beat Charleston out yet, as they
have a long road trip to go on, while
we are coming bark home for some
games. Dingle, of Slimier, has prom
ised to bring Cowell—his star pitcher
—over to play the last three weeks
with us. I mean to fight Charleston
to a standstill for third place.
"With best, wishes and hoping wo
do better from now on, I ant, yours,
etc.,
W. W. CLARK.
"Jacksonville, July 18."

HERE ARE A FEW ITEMS
OF ENGLISH FAIR PLAY
Ever since the United States ath
letes forming the athletic team ar
rived in England they have been get
ting the raw end of everything In
which their chances were involved.
Here are a few items of English
fair play they have been treated to;
1 The American commissioner ap
pointed hy President Roosevelt was
denied admission to the field to look
after the interests of tho team.
2 The English style of pole vault
ing was made official, which handi
capped all foreign teams.
3 Our men had to draw for heats,
which resulted in putting Americans
against each, other. This lessened
the chances of good men to figure in
the finals as only first. In the heals
could compete in tho finish. Eng
land, naturally, had many more on
tries than any other nation, and
could not be materially injured hy
this rule.
4 Tho English tug-of-war wore
heavy shoes, shod and spiked with
steel. This was a clear breach of
their own rules, but our protest was
disregarded.
5 The British committee decided
not to give supremacy through score
to any nation. It also seeks to count
all competitions as Olympic games
This would admit archery, lawn ten
nis and other divisions. Possibly
they would Include skittles and shuf
fle board, which still ciusos rare ex
citement in England.
t* They failed to display the Am
erican flag in the Stadium on the open
lug day, ami there never was a cheer
from the British when an American
athlete won a point. (*instltutlon.
