NEW YORK COTTON
New York. —Cotton made new high
ground for the movement today, first
prices being five to ten points higher on
active demand from leading trade Intev
erts for near months. Realizing sup
plied a good deal of cotton around the
opening figures. Prices worked ofr only
two or three points during the early
trading, however. Business was very
active at the start and there seemed
fresh buying through wire and commis
sion houses.
Only slight reactions seemed sufficient
to bring in a renewed demand from old
crop shirts late In the morning and
price* showed continued firmness witn
active months selling about eight to 12_
points net higher.
Fluctuations were somewhat irregular
during the esriv afternoon with prices
easing off fotir to five points from the
liesi tinder realizing. New .Top posi
tions held relatively steady on continued
covering.
Cotton futures closed steady.

Baseball Today Is Faster And More
Scientific a Game Than 25 Years Ago
At Least This is the, Opinion of Clark Griffith, Manager of
The Washington Americans, in an Article on “Twenty-
Five Years in Big League Baseball." Compares Stars of
Past With Those of Present.
(By Frank G. Menke.)
New York.— Baseball today is a fast
er, more scientific game than it was
25 years ago, but many stars of the
old days outrank the brightest, shin
ing satellites of the present age, in
the opinion of Clark Griffith, manager
of the Washington Americans, In an
article on "Twenty-five Years In Big
League Baseball," which appears in
the April issue of the Outing Maga
zine.
Griffith, after declaring that he has
been connected with the big leagues
for twenty-five years, compares the
different stars of the past and present
and furnishes some interesting base
ball history.
Charles Comlskey, now owner of the
White Kox, is ranked hy Griffith as
the greatest first baseman that ever
held down the initial bag. Grlf credits
him with revolutionizing the system of
playing first base.
He was the first man to see the pos
sibilities of the position,” writes Grif
fith. "Before his day a first base
mian was only a basket. He stood
blued to (he hag, received the balls
thrown to him, but never moved
away.
First Basing Job.
"But soon after he got the first bas
ing Job for tlie old St. Louis Browns
lie was discovered playing about
feet back of the bag and about thy
same distance to the right. People
thought him crazy and yelled to the
manager to ‘can' him. Even his own
teammates kicked. But the manager
had confidence in the brainy Com
lskey, and when he began to grab bally
that formerly scooted off to right field
for hits, and brat the runner to the
bag with ’em, the Jeers changed to
cheers
"This encouraged Comiskey to play
even farther bark and ho finally forced
the pitcher to do the unheard of thing i
of playing the first baseman's position |
when llie first baseman was fielding
ttie ball. Bo well did these innova
tions work that Comlskey soon hi"'
the other first baseman doing the same
thing.
I Griffith then stated that Anson, al
though a great player, was not Cotn
iskey's equal, that Dan Brouthers, also
a wonderful player, was rated under
Anson.
No First Baseman.
“Until Hal Chase came there were
no great first basemen during the
intervening years," wrote Griffin
"Then there came three men who give
promise of being even greatei first
basemen than those who have gone be
fore, They are Jake Daubert, of
Brooklyn; ‘Stuffy’ Mdnnis. of the Ath
leties, and 'Chick' Oandll, of my Wash
ington team. They are wonders."
Eddie Collins, In Grit's opinion, Is
the greatest second baseman the world
ever lias known.
"When we eonsider Collins there Is
no use of talking about any other sec
ond baseman of tho present day."
writes Gris.
Griffith gives Fred Pfeffer, of the old
White Box, and 'Biddy* McPhee, of the
old Cincinnati Reds, places among the
greatest men that ever worked at the
initial station.
"From their day until the eomlng of
Collins, Lajoie, the big graceful
Frenchman,' shone as th,e brilliant, star
"Herman Long, of the old Boston
club, was the greatest, shortstop I
ever have known. Other men iisvo
come slneo his time, and played the
position In wonderful style, but Long,
In my opinion, never lias known an
equal.
“Williamson, of the old White Sox,
was a wonderful shortstop in 1890. He
used to [day without a glove. Dahlen,
Corcoran, Jennings, Wallace and Da
\Mh also were marvelous shortstops.
And so Is Wagner, Hans has a bar
rel of ability, but he is not such a roxy
player as many persons think. But he
Is a wonderful batter.
Mcßrid.e
"On a par with Wagner I place Mc-
Bride of the Washington club. He Is
the best defensive man In the busi
ness, but a weak hitter. if he could
club like Wagner he would lie the
greatest shortstop of all time.
"Barry, of the Athletics, also, Is a
wonder, and Fletcher, of the Giants,
Is a mighty good man.
"Of all the third basemen I think
McGraw and Jimmy Collins, of the
Boston Red Box. were the best. Mc-
Graw was foxier than Collins and a
better hitter, but Collins was the best
fielder. He was the most graceful
fielding third baseman the game ever
haH seen. And this gives him the edge.
"Gardner of the Red Box, Foster of
the Washingtons, and Baker of the
Athletics, are the only third basemen
who can be compared to these two.
Baker Is a poor fielder; he Is awk
ward. But he is such a wonderful
batter that it lifts him up to the top
notch. Foster is a foxy fielder and
a foxy batter—a great all around man.
Gardner is a wonder, but not quite In
Foster's class.''
“Tris” Speaker.
“Trls Speaker Is tho most remark
able outfielder that ever lived,” re
marks Griffith, after according places
in tho Outfield Hall of Fame to more
than a score of the past and present
gardening stars. "He Is the best man
on fly halls that I ever have seen. His
throws are deadly. Ratters hit the
hall a mile, yet Speaker goes out to
the fence and gets them —gets drives
that other men would have to let go
for three base hits and home runs.
"Of course, it Is bard to judge be
tween Speaker and Cobh as to which
is tlie better man. Cobb is a belter
base runner and n better bailer, but
Speaker stands out bh a fielder.
"Jackson, of Cleveland, Is a wonder
ful ttirower and batter, but he does not
shine us a base runner. Milan, of
Washington, is a better ball player
than Jackson. He is a splendid field
er, splendid base runner and consist
ent .300 hitter. He Is continually us
ing his head.
"Comparing these stars with Rill
Lange, of the old generation, shows
that tho old generation suffers. Cobb
and Speaker are Lange's superiors,
and I think Milan Is almost Lange's
equal. Among tho other great out
fielding stars of the past and present
were Willie Keller, Fred Clarke, Field
er Jones, Jesse Burkett, Elmer Flick,
Huge Duffy, Mike Dunlin, Jimmy Mr-
Aleer, Fogarty and Dicky Johnson.”
“In the catching line the stars of
tho present day are not as good as
those of the other days. Buck
never has known an equal as a catch
er. I call him the heat ball player
the world ever has known. Tlie only
man who ever approached him was
Mike Kelly, of the old Chicago White
Box Kelly, 100, was a wonder, but
not quite equal to Ewing.-
"Walter Johnson Is the greatest
pitcher of today, but wonderful as he
is, there were some old-timers that
were wonders, too. Clsrkson and
Keefe were the la st In the period that,
ended In 1H93. Then came three won
ders Amos Itusie. fy Young and Kid
Nichols. And then came Mathew
son. Clarkson, Keefe and Nichols were
not quite as good as Matty and John
son are today, but Young and Itusie, In
their prime, were right along with
them.
"In making these comparisons. In
telling who I think were file greatest,
men that ever played the different po
sltiona on the diamond I am only giving
my own opinion. Homo may dlffel
with me, hut these conclusions are
drawn after watching closely the thou
sands who have come and gone since I
entered the big eague games."
