"Base Ball as Usual" Is
Motto of Prexy Hickey
Chicago, Dec. Definite plans
for resumption of base ball in the
American Association next season
will be agreed upon at the annual
meeting of club owners in Minne
apolis next Friday. The positive an
nouncement rivas made today by
K Thomas J. Hickey, president of the
association, that the game would be
resucied. '
"Base ball as usual" is President
Hickey's optimistic view of the sit
uation. '
"I am confident base ball , will
come back stronger than ever," he
. said. "The situation becomes bright
er each week. The speedy demobil
ization of American forces on land
and sea meant that America, in my
judgment, is due for big revival
in all sports." '" v
Apparently the club owners hold
little fear of omens of misfortune
fox the meeting is to be held on the
thirteenth of the month with Friday
another alleged hoodso thrown
in for good measure. . S

New fork Coffee.
New York, Dec. 9. Tha meeting of
members of the Coffee and Sugar ex
change today resulted In a tie vote on the
question of reopening the marks for cof
fee futures. This left the matter In the
bands of the board of managers, who de
cided not to take' any action at this time.
Requests were received by the exchang
from both the New Orleans Board of
Trade and the San Francisco Chamber of
Commerce that the futures market be
kept closed until rejtrlctlons were re
moved from the business In green coffee,
which probably lntuenced the result of
the meeting. There seemed to be no
clear Idea among local brokers this after
noon as to further procedure and tba situ
ation was described as almoat exactly
the same, so far as futures were con
cerned, as when the liquidation of the old
Interest had been completed during th
middle of last month. No change was re
ported In the spot situation. Sales were
reported In the cost and freight market
of Santos 6s at 20 c, or the highest prices
so far noted. The official cables showed
an advance of 76 reis In the Rio spot
market. Santos spots were not quoted
and fuutres were 25 to 100. reis lower.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Dec. 9. Assertions that delays
to the crop movement had rendered Im
probable the accumulation of an adequate
winter stock of corn in the east proved
more than an offset today tor big receipts
here. The market closed strong, 14io to
2e net higher, with January 31.314 to
$1,314. and May $1.30 to $1,304- Oats
gained 4c to 14 0 and le. In provisions,
the outcome ranged from 70c decline to
40o advance.
During th first half of the session ths
bearish sentiment dominated the corn
market owing chiefly to the fact that ar
rivals here exceeded even the most liberal
estimate. Unfavorable weather conditions,
however, pointed to a check In the crop
movement, and it was (aid that rural of
ferings had been further diminished by
the setback of price Saturday and this
morning. In this connection, gossip was
current that the lateness of the crop
movement had already reached a stage
Which would compel an unusual total of
all-rail shipment east, a total that never
theless could not keep pace with
expected demand. A a result, latest quo
tations were near to th day' topmost
level. .
Seaboard demand gave Independent
strength to oats. Beside domestic ship
ping call showed revival.
Provisions reflected liberal export and
the temporary embargo here on the ex
cessive inflow of hoga.

FINANCIAL
New Tork, Dec. 9. The moderate and
Irregular improvement shown by today's
stock market was mainly ascribed to the
favorable tenor of week-end advice re
specting general trade and Industrial pros
pects, as reported by the federal reserve
board and other authorities.
Dealing were again light and contracted,
concentrating In steels, shippings, motors,
oils and several of the high grade rails,
as well as minor transportation, notably
Southern Railway and Texas Pacific.
Speculative specialties as represented by
the distilling group also formed a consid
erable part of the trading, Industrial Alco
hol gaining t points and Distillers a point.
The most extensive gain of any stock was
that of Cuba-American Sugar, which ad
vanced 164 points on a single sale. Ma
rine preferred fluctuated within a-24-polnt
range, but yielded toward the close,
despite assurances of progress in the pro
posed sale to the United States government,
and Mexican Petroleum lost halt of Its sub
stantial rise.
Sears-Roebuck, May Department Stores,
American Car, American Can and coppers
furnished the other firm to strong Issues,
metals being sustained by unofficial reports
that the war board Intends to hold the
supplies now on hand.
Unite States Steel and kindred shares
were at their best with tobaccos at the
fairly aotlve close, and Studebaker, which
ranked among the few backward Issues,
made up practically all Its loss of 1
points, utilities alone displaying heaviness.
Liquidation of Liberty bonds proceeded,
the fourth 414s making a new low quota
tion at 85.64, while the second 4'4a dupli
cated the year's minimum at 93.00. Rails
and Internationals were steady. Total sales
(par value) aggregated $10,225,000.
Old United States bonds were unchanged
on call.

ATHLETIC CLUB
OPEN TO PUBLIC
NEXTTHURSDAY
Decorators Put Finishing
Touches on Interior; Huge
Crowd Expected to At
tend1 Reception.
With artistic precision an army
of decorators and workmen is put
ting finishing touches on the inter
ior of the Omaha Athletic Club
building. The work of arranging
the carpets and furniture practical-J
iy is compieica, leaving iwo aays
more . for the minor details before
the opening day to the public, De
cember 12. The committee on the
arrangement of the building is
gratified at the complete appearance
the club rooms will present on that
day.
The entertainment committee has
arranged a reception Thursday
from 1 p.m. to 2:30 for members
who through some, recent grief may
not wish to attend the public re
ception to members Saturday night.
Public to See All Rooms
The plans and details have prac
tically been all worked out for the
inspection of the building by the
entire public of Omaha Thursday
December 12, from the hours of J
to 10 p. m. This reception will be
by the members generally, headed
by the reception committee. Sev
eral scores of ushers who know
the many details of the house thor
oughly will be in position to show
the people through the rooms. So
that the crawd will be handled
properly, they will be taken by ele
vators to the top floor, walking
down to the main floor after being
shown thoroughly through all the
rooms and shown every detail on
each floor.
Home 'for Business Men
One of the members of the Ji
ception committee said today:" We
want the entire Omaha public to
become acquainted with the nany
advantages of the Omaha Athjetic
club. So many have the impres
sion that an athletic club is largely
a gymnasium and a place just for
athletics, swimming, boxing, etc
We want them to see that it is
really a home for the tired busi
ness man where he can drop in for
a few hours and find either rest
or recreation. In the summer
many business men can find recre
ation at golf, tennis and other
outdoor sports but the new ath
letic club will give him the privi
lege of much needed physical ex
ercise during the long winter
months.
"But I believe after the public
inspection the people will find the
athletic club a place of rest as well
as a place where we can find
wholesome physical exercise."
Several orchestras will be placed
through the building1 during the
public reception, but other forms
of entertainment will be impossible
on, account of the large crowd ex
pected on that day.
The committee wishes to an
nounce that children will not be
permitted to go through the build
ing during the public reception.
