Wilkes-Harre, Aug. 19. Over twelve
hundred people at tended Athletic Park
this afternoon to witness the lirst game
botween WllkisBarre iul Toronto
teams. It was a very spirited contest.
The continual kicking of the Canadians
made life almost unbearable for Um
pire Hornung. He wax Dually forced
to line Truby $10. and remove him from
the grounds for abusive language from
the bench. Both pitchers Were effective
und the lidding wus sharp. Wilkes
Uarre won the kuiii.- by opportune bat
ting. The second gum..' was well plu,y.-d up
to the tilth Inning when it resolved itself
Into a farce. Coakle.v who occupied the
box for Wllkeu-Uarre, became- nettled
at Die poor support given him and sent
the bulls over the plate easy. The re
sult was Dial be wus batted all over the
lot und Toronto won with ease, lse
fore the- t.'unadiaus secured their lead
they ugulu acted in u disorderly man
ner und I'mplre If ..ruling was obliged
to Impose a tine of $25 on Truby who
found his way back to the grounds. A
policeman escorted the obstreperous
player from I he grounds the second
time. Seme:

SILVER GOES DOWN
WITH A THUD
Lowest Point Touched la Years Was
Reached Yesterday.
THE EFFECT OF COCK RAM'S SPEECH
Hen oa the Street Are Hopeful of the
Renewal of 'oalideace(old Im
portations Now Likely-Bunkers
Rejoice That the People See the
Fallacy of Free Silver.
New York, Aug. 19. The Immediate
effeet of W. Bourke Cockran's speech,
while not particularly noticeable in the
tradings in the Stock Exchange today,
was apparent in the hopeful expressions
of bunkers and brokers, who did not
hesitate to say that the Bryan tactics
nnd the movement of the Propocratlc
party hud been met and turned in a
masterly manner by the distinguished
orator, hut the most pronounced ef
fect was to be Keen In the sharp decline
In the price of the very metal which
Bryan and his follower worship so as
siduously. Silver was lower today than it has
been for year, und the Indications are
that the wlillo metal will continue to
decline In juice. The decline today wus
marked In both the Commercial bur sli
ver and the Mexican silver dollars. The
former fell from 65 at the opening of
the market to 65 before noon, and Mex
ican silver dollars declined from i'S to
61 cents.
The primary reason for thl decline
Is said to he the general conviction that
the silver cause cannot win. The de
creased demand in London for Indian
exchange as well as the falling off here
of the demund for China exchange have
depresslngly affected the local market.
This decline hus started talk of gold
Importation as the sterling exchange
has also declined lo a point which would
make the purchase of gold an apparent
ly good speculation. F.xperts calculate
that a shipment of 100.000 in gold bars
bought now Would produce here $4Mi.
100. which, with the expenses of freight
and Insurance would give u specie point
of 4.S5. The specie import point today
was i.S2' and 4.84 for bar gold in Lon
don. This condition also operates to
cause a decline in silver.
Bullion brokers here have made
special Inquiry in London on the mat
ter of future delivery of silver in burs.
These Inquiries have resulted in the
information that In the lust, three
weeks contracts registered for the- fu
ture delivery of silver have amounted
lo only about 60 per cent, of what they
were ut the corresponding' time last
year.
At noon the foreign exchange market
wus decidedly weaker, und bullion
brokers are prepared for a shurp de
cline. ONE OAUSK OP DECLINl-:.
Bullion Broker Zimmermnn of the
firm of Zimmerman A Forshay, attri
butes Ihe decline of silver to the dull
ness of trade with the silver countries,
such as China, and to speculation.
"While Mexican silver dollars nie
quoted at .11 'i." said Mr. Zimmerman,
"they cannot be purchased for that at
the Mexican mint. The decline, there
fore, may be said to be speculative
rather than actual. The price may ad
vance at any time or decline still lower.
It would be unsafe to predict either
way."
The Mercantile Safe Deposit com
pany holds 1.769,3S1.97 ounces of silver

One of the latest victims of the sil
ver craze is the Argentine National
bank of Argentine, Kansas, a suburb
of Kansas City. The correspondent of
the Argentine bank in this city I the
Hanover National bank. When In
formed of the bank's failure Cashier
Hnll. of the Hanover National bank,
snid:
"The Argentine bank 1 a small affair,
and does not owe ti a penny. The col
lapse of a building boom in Kansas
City has caused muny banks to go tin
der, and people becoming alarmed by
the silver craze probably began to
draw their money out of the Argentine
bank, and It bud to suspend."
At 10 o'clock it was reported on the
street that a leading banking house
had arranged to import $2,000,000 in
gold.
The stringency In time money which
has prevailed for some time wus among
the chief reason for the stock market
opening Weak today. The price which
maintained at the opening were 011 an
average of 11 point lower than ut the
close yesterday, but quick trading gave
the market something of a tone, indi
cating that It weakened condition Was
due more to speculation than to legi
timate trouble.
Considerable credit for this toning of
the market has been given to the effect
of W. Bourke Cockran's BFeech In Ihe
Madison Square C.ardcii lust night.
Thul address wus regarded as an au
thoritative declaration of the attitude
of u big majorty of the American peo
ple 011 the financial question, and the
Impression prevails that when it lias
been read abroud the effect on foreign
exchange will be of great benefit, so
fur us this country is concerned.
Mr. Cockran's speech has cheered the
temper of Wall street operators, and
the opinion is generally entertained
among them that the cause of honest
money Is certain or success. The ques
tion now confronting tlie purely specu
lative element Is whether the current
range of prices retlects accurately the
public sentiment abroad.
DIAMOND DUST.
Johnson and Berger will be today's bat
tery. A comparison of figures In the three
games with Buffalo und Toronto shows
that although Scranton lost four or Ihe
six the visiting clubs were outbutted und
out fielded. The summary is as follows:
K. II. K. K. Runs.
Scranton X .14 1:1 17
Opponents .l 52 IS 15
7 2 .1 2
With Scranton' 7 lts runs, 2 more hits.
6 less error and 2 more earned runs than
had Toronto and Buffalo. Manager llrll
fin will be pardoned for saying something
about "hurd luck." In none of the four
victories by the visitors wus the game
won without-a hard tight. Scranton won
u 14-imdng game from Toronto and lout
two 10-inulng games to the Bisons. There
Is nothing to be ushumed of, but there Is
everything to commend In the present
work of the club.
Although Umpire GufTney never made
any "bud breaks" In Scranton until his
two ostly decisions Monday, the
bleucherltes have not quite forgiven him
for those two offenses. Some of them
Jeered him yesterday when he was um
piring belter ball than ever before. The
"home club" doe not have to win In or
iler to give an umpire opportunity to do
hi best work: it I when he Is fair and
impartial under all circumstances that
he should be commended. But the bleach-
trite did not see U that way.
