New York, Aug. 7. Early trading

in stocks was on a large scale, with

prices as a rule somewhat higher

than the previous close. St. Paul

established a new hish record, sell

the near future. Should it be as i

large as the street generally expects.

Southern Pacific's position as a market leader will be further enhanced

and some of the best and most conservative traders are predicting still higher prices for this security.

Of the grain-carrying roads, Mis

Reports from various sections of the country are to the effect that the weather has been too unseasonable and this will defer any large movement of cash oats. The advance was not well sustained, however, and the market closed with a weak undertone. PROVISIONS were higher, shorts in September were compelled to pay fancy prices to buy back their contracts. Pork had a rally of 20 cents per barrel and Lard and Ribs were

both firm and higher, with a broader market than for some time.

Two Umpires Sunday. There will be two umpires at the

Hammond-Whiting baseball game next Sunday. Whiting says anyone but McCool and Hammond says any one but J. Britt. The players on

both teams are going into the series

with a determination to win, or die

in the attempt, so it is quite mport-

ant that the arbiters be men whose

fairness is unquestioned by either

side. The Hammonds object to J.

Britt on account of a raw deal he

ave Hammond in their game with

the Oak Leas some time ago. Some

of the fans even go so far as to

charge that he sold out the' game to the Oak Leas.
