At Danielson on Sunday, President Reeves of the Kastern Connecticut baseball leabue has called a directors’ meeting to discuss and take actlon on necessary points, as the opening of FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL EXTREME APATHY. Prices Drifted Back to the Lowest in the Late Dealings. New York, March 19.—The stock market became -extremely apathetic today as the belief became stronger that the gust of activity on the two | previous days might be taken to show | all the interest stirred by the intro- | duction of the tariff bill n congress. Professional ~ operators wexe disposed to close up outstanding contracts ow ing to the small prospect of any eatly tivity in the market. When prices £ged a demand developed which was taken to indicate that uncovered shorts still had some necessities to_ provide for. Their professional brethren thereupon bid up prices on them. A drive against the market was heiped by acute weakness in the Interborough- Metropolitan stocks on account of the morning’s report of new bidders for the construction of eubways under the eastern portion of the city. The con- jecture of powerful railroad backing for this new project gave its force, al- though the rumor that the New York, New Haven and Hartford was em- Dbarked in the enterprise was without confirmation. The local traction: group was affected more or less 1pa- thy. The Hill rafiroads «nd Chesa- peake and Ohio were the principal fe tures on the other side of the move- ment, the Just Jising to the highest price of its history. Prices drifted buck to the Jowes: ir the neglect of the afternoon. News was little regarded, although a Trise in copper quotations at the New York metal exchange and in the London market may have had. some steadying influence on Amarga- mated Copper. A similar effect on United States Steel was due possibly to a statement credited to Chairman Gary that a $10,000,000 battleship order | had been placed With the Bethlehem Steel company by the Argentine goy. ernment and a revivifying effect on the steel trade might be expected to result. The heavy taking of gold ¢oin for ship- ment to London tomorrow, reaching a total of $3,300,000, aroused calcula- tions as to the effect_on the money ot Time loans were called some- t firmer today. The week's outgo 1 seems to be more than offset by gains by the banks on sub- re perations and the balance of receipts ou the jor movemeng of currency. The market was free from depressing influepces from abroad and buying of optic on American s is_reported the London ket. Bonds were irregular. Total , par _value, $3,162,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. - Am. 2000 Am. 2400 A, Nide & L. pfd Teo Securities . Linseed Oil. . Locomotive. e Smelting & . pid Sngar Tiofniog: .

Har- old Young, catcher, Alfred Henault, pitcher, for the Lemons: John O'Brien catcher’ and William MeKnight pitch- er for the Eagies LOOK OUT FOR FAKE. Job as Referes in Coming Ketchel-0'Brien Fight. New York, March 19.—When Tim Hurst enters the ring of the National A. C. next Friday night to referee the ter. round bout between Staniey Ketch- the middleweight champion, and Philadelphia Jack O'Brien he will as. sume an unusual responsibility. Be- cause of O’'Brien’s reputation as a pu- gilistic faker it wil be up to Hurst to decide whether the bout is strictly on the level or not. If Hurst reaches the conclusion that anything is wrong he Il notify the club directors, who will decline to pay the men for their ser- vices as “entertalners,” while the club members will receive their “reserva- tions” back. There has been many run ors in circulation ever since Ketch- el and O'Brien were matched several weeks ago. One report has it that Ketchel will not try to knock O’Brien out and that the “inside wise guys” will try to get down bets that theP hil- adelphian will stay the limit. O'Brien is one of the best boxers in the profession, but he cannot hit hard enough to hurt such a rugged man as Ketchel. On the other hand, Ketchel is a terrific puncher and a fast, ag- gressive pugllist, who believes in rush- ing to close quarters for incessant mixups. It will be comparatively easy therefore for Referee Hurst to dete: mine whether Ketchel is trying his best or not, and as Hurst is a con- scientious, fearless referes, the club members feel that they will be pro- tected. Just why Ketchel has taken O'Brien on instead of Sam Langford is something of & puzzle, Ketchel is apparently proud of the fact that he is the middleweight champion of the world, yet he has studiously avoided a fight with Langford, who stands ready to make 158 pounds ringside for him. O’Brien has not fought a good man since Tommy Burns double cross- ed him at Los Angeles more than a year ago, and as Burns has since turn- d out to be a second rater O'Brien does not look like a first class fighter just at present. INTERNATIONAL BOWLINGPRIZES Lipman Team Made World’s Recard in Five-Men Cl Hur: Pittsburg, March 19.—The first prize winners in the three classes, five men, two men, and individual events, dur- ing the ninth annual international tournament of the American Bowling congress, which = concludes a three weeks' meeting in shis city tomorrow evening, are given below.

Jomes is heavily interested in lumber lands on the Pacific coast and named $20,000 as the pricg of his services, MARATHONER FROM FRANCE. St. Ives Is Here to Meet the Best Runners—Has Record Time of 23123, Henry St. Tves, a noted French long distance runner, arrived at New York Thursday on the Teutonlc. He will make his first American appearance in the $10,000 Marathon race to be run at the Polo grounds, New York eity, on April 3. St Ives is twenty years old and has. competed in five races, winning them all. St. Ives’ most recent claim to ath- letic fame was attested in a race over the regulation 26 miles 385 yards course held last December in Edin- burgh, Scotland, The race had as con- tesants men from England, Scotland, Ireland, France and other countries, and St. Ives found little difficulty in wag 2 . or § minutes 45 sec- onds slower than that of St. Ives.

Pennsylvania’s crew prospects are anything but encouraging this year. With only a very small minority of last year's crew back at college, and with “nothing more than a mediocre freshman squad coming in to fill their places, the conditions are such as to discourage even Coach Ellis Ward.

Jones Hasn't Heard of It Portland, Oregon, March 19.—Fleld- er Jones today ‘said, when shown the Chicago despatch: “I pamed $20,000 as my price when I came through Chicago, but I never gave it directly to Comiskey. and I have no intimation that I am to re- ceive such an offer from him, Cons: quently, I cannot say what I will do with an offer that I have not yet re ceived. I have made no plans to r turn to baseball” Floored Often But Came Back.
