Michael Carroll, the club’s baseball manager, and Louis Manchester, one of its mosi enthusiastic followers of the sport, have opeen doiug considerable prelim- inary work in this line and finding a ready response where they have pre- sented the plan. If a team can be found to represent the Falls, they feel that the amateur league can practical- Iy be saii to be started. Three teams which would represent different parts of the city and thus contribute in interest by the sectional’ rivalry which would be sure to result are practicall assured. Manager White of the T, A. C.'s has been seen and is ready to enter a team to repre- sent Taftville. In Greeneville, Messrs. &£hahan and Bradley have given the C. A, C. men to understand that they would go in for their part of the city. Of course, the Central Athletic club team itself would represent thie center, and with a team from the Falls in- cluded the circuit would be well filled out, it is considered. The tull‘{llm is not worked out yet in the minds of the promoters, bu general idea is to lay out a certain time for the season to last and play off their schedule—twb games a_week. Manager Carroll and Mr. Manchester, who have invited Sporting Editor ‘Whitney of The Bulletin to a place on the committee with them, have called an open meeting for next Frid in the C. A. amateur league which they propose. The move is without doubt a good ons and the formation of a league would certainly result in a most Interesting serles of games and some fine §pc the partisans of the different clubs en- tered.

OPEN MARATHON - At Polo Grounds—Plan to Get the Greatest Distance Runners of the World. New York, March 4.—Rarly next month an outdoor Marathon, open to the world, will be run off at the Polo grounds, It will be a professional sweepstakes, and it is expeected that the field will include the greatest dis- tance men in the world—Shrubb, Do- rando, Hayes, Simpson White, Syan- berg, Longboat and Maloney, and pos sibly one or two of the crack ama- teurs, The purse for which the finners will compete will be one of the biggest ever offered for a foot race. Powers and Pollok think so much of the idea that they will guarantee $10,000 or $12,000, with a percentage privilege. A conservative estimate places the at- tendance at between 30,000 and 40,000, The track w11 be laid outside the diamond and skirting the putfield.

New York, March 4—The inaugura- tion of the new president was received with passive satisfaction in the finan- cial district, so far as the operations in the stock market gave any surface indication. The cheers of the brokers on the floor upon the announcement of the swearing in of Mr. Taft were the most tangible expres: ns of the pre- vailing view. The day’s Intense dull- ness was attributfble, in no small part, to the serfou communication with all interruption of wire parts of the country. The telegraphing by cable was freer than by the land lines, und for- eign operations in this o , NArrow as was itg dimensions, we of consid- erable effoct. The brightening of the Balkan situation prompted some buy- ing of stocks and helped the opening show of strength here. There was an- other little spurt upon the announce- t of the ident.

Fans who follow ' the (Connecticut league this year will-need to take a little time to get accustomed to the looks of the téams that will represent the cities, as an unusually large num- ber of the best known diamond artiscs have received pi otion to higher company. Harry Noyes, Pete Wilson, Tom Stankard, Jack Hess, Jimmy O’'Rourke, Red ‘Waller, Beaumont, Gus Soffel and Tom Tuckey are all slated to play on other dlamonds, and it will be some time before the league will ap- pear familiar with these players miss- I ng. Of the t changes Hartford is perhaps the nardest hit, but the build- ing up will not be as difficult as in some tle other clubs, as the Capitol City still retains a fine necleus. Gard- ner, Wilson, Noyes and Casey are the players lost and Manager Tom Con- nery wili have a hard time filling the shoes of this quartette. But he has a fine list of plavers left, including Pitchers Leverenz, Evan Schuman, and Swanson, Catcher O'Leary, Con- nery, Justice, Yancey, Cobb and Fal- Ion and a s‘rong string of recruits, Springfield will lose Powell, Stankard and Hegs, with Bill Yale and Mike McAndrews likely to be dropped. Bridgeport loses the familiar faces of Jimmy O’Rourke, Red Waller and Beaumont, and New Haven will be without Pleiss, Waters, Simmons, Reischman and Paige. Holyoke wil be without Al Boucher and Jimmy Lavende”. The Meriden-Northampton combination loses a pair of stars in Tom Tuckey and Gus Soffel, and Wa- terbury leses Fitzpatrick and Farley. Springfield” Swaps for Barbour. Springfiecld has made a deal by which Louis Barbour becomes the Po- nies’ third baseman. Manager Zeller swapped Yale and McAndrews. first and third basemen last vear, respec- tively, vesterday, to the Northampton club, the trade being made through Dan O'Neil, the former Springfield manager. Barbour will be remembered as the Meriden third baseman who played the greater part of the season with that club last yvear and who pré- viously was with Holyoke, Manager Zeller has.; catcher coming who is Paul Wachdb, the California star, so highly recommended by Murray Park- er_and a left-handed pitcher is Ches- ter Dobems, who used to pitch for the Burlington, Vt.. outlaws. / McLean Coaching at Storrs, Conn.
