The Enormous Influence of American Products. New York, Oct. 00 The enormous Influence which American products are exerting in building up a credit balance abroad has been the most sig nal development of the financial situation today. Reports from all quarters show that the great American staples wheat, cotton, copper, tobacco, oil, meats are on their way to Europe, this being the season of year when Americal products are marketed abroad. Tho immediate effects of these shipments is to give the United States credit abroad which speedily can be converted into cash. These natural resources of the country promise to exert even greater Influence than the sale of American securities abroad. The latter have to some extent suffered discredit under recent pressure, but the Intrinsic value of American staples used abroad and their colossal aggregate at this period of the year, is beyond the reach of financial distrust. . The foreign sales of millions of American copper are supplemented today by reports of similar heavy export, today's shipments aloue giving a foreign credit of $14,000,000. The shipments of tobacco to Europe this year promise to break all records. Officials of the American Tobacco Company estimated today with the orders on hand that the year's exports will exceed f0,000,000 pounds of manufactured tobacco which is far in excess of tho amount exported last year. Europe Will Pay Millions. Europe will pay over $100,000.00 for this tobacco and much of this money soon will be available in this market, as the contracts with, the European

New York. Oct. .'. Rumors of the formation of a third major league, of trouble to be made by the American association and the Eastern league, two strongest of the minor leagues, unless they are given better protection and the right to draft freely from the clubs lower down in the classification: rumors of protest from the Pacific Coast league against the rule which declares outlaws all layers who join the clubs of that league for the winter season, and rumors of a dozen other sensations marked the opening of the annual meeting of the National association of professional baseball leagues in this city Tuesday. Practically nothing was accomplished at the opening session, and after two or three addresses, the secretary's report and the appointment of a couple of committees the meeting was adjourned until today, presumably for discussion among the warring factions with the idea of getting together on the disputed points. At the meeting President Powers announced that the association was in excellent shape and that the season had been a successful one. He referred to the rumors of the formation of a third major league, but stated that the national officers had no intimation of such a plan and he did not believe there was anything in it. Speech by Pulliam. Harry Pulliam, president of the National league, who was present by invitation, made a brief speech, in which he went over the present baseball situation. He said he did not approve of the players in the major leagues playing in California after the close of the regular season and stated that the national league clubs had been notified

that their players must not be allowed io soflayers on national league teams who ere now playing with the Pacific coast teams had been notified to sever their connection with the Pacific coast league teams immediately, on penalty of being declared outlaws.

GUS TAUBE FINALLY LOCATED HIS PROPERTY ONE OF THE HORSES IS SICK NEAR INDIANAPOLIS. After more than a week's strenuous search for two horses which he had purchased at the union stock yards in Indianapolis, and which were started toward Richmond in charge of a "leader," Gus Taube, a local liveryman, has found the animals. The driver was locked in the Indianapolis police station on the charge of horse thieving, but was released at TaubV? solicitation. It seems that the man placed in charge of the animals to lead them to Cambridge City, became very much frightened when one of the horses became ill just a few miles east of Indianapolis. Thinking that he would probably be blamed for abusing the horses by stock yards authorities, if he returned them there, he drove them into a farmers' barn lot and on j some pretext secured tne larmei oi nr-mlKF to earn for the animals tinI !, , 1 "rnp, f(, Tnril!inilt0ii, and til he teturned to Indianapolis, ana secured the services of a veterinary,
