Fairmount Athletic Club, New York, April 13.~Al Kaufman of San Fran- cisco, who hag aspirations to the heavy ‘weight fistic championship hdnors, met and defeated by points Tony Ross of Newcastle,” Pa., tonight, in a ten-round bout before the Fairmount A. C. Jack Johnson, the world’s champion heavy- weight pugilist, was at the ringside and simply laughed at the efforts of the men, apparently feeling self-satis- fied that no danger threatened his title from this most earnest seeker for a bout for the championship. Kaufman, according to experts at the ringside, did not show that he is in the class of the big negro, A supreme court injunction granted early today restraining Ross from meeting Kaufman did not interfere with theq arrangements of the manage- ment of the Fairmount A. C. tonight. The Injunction papers were not served and all claims against Ross' appear- ance were settled long before the men were scheduled to meet. In the opening round Kaufman showed quickly by left jabs and a handy right that he had his man's measure taken. Kaufman was cool and deliberate, almost measuring his blows, put the only telling blow that Ross sent back was a right swing on the side of the head. The first was easily Kaufman’s round, ‘In the second round Ross rushed but ‘was stopped by three left facers which drew blood from the nose. Tony bored in with a hard left to the body and took a left smash on the face in re- turn. Ross bulled towards the end of the round, but Kaufman was master of the round by & small margin at the bell. The third round found Ross willing and forcing the issue. He sent two rights to the head, getting had blows in return, and a hard left facer which made the blood spout again from the nasal organ. Ross showed unquestion. able gameness throughout the fight but Kaufman was the better puncher in every clinch and had a margin in his favor in every round. In opening the ninth round Kaufman depended on left jabs to the face and then sent Ross to the floor for eight seeconds with a left hook to the jaw. Ross came up weakly and was soon staggering around the ring from a suc- cession of right and left smashes in the stomach, Kaufman missed a great right swing for the head a sec- ond before the bell rang. REAL BASEBALL OPENING. Record Crowds Looked For Today, but Weather Man Says “Rain.” New York, April 33—Final prepara- tlons were completed today for the r opening’ tomorrow of the baseball s son, the games yesterday and today between the eastern division teams of the American league having only whet- ted the appetite of the baseball fans.

The Norwich City league, recently formed of four clubs of Norwick ama- teurs, expired Tuesday night at a meeting of the directors in the rooms of the Central Athletic club. Mana- ger Joe O’Sullivan of the Outlaws wh Wwere to represent Greeneville, stated that about half of his nine had been bid_away from him by other teams, McClafferty, Bradley, Sheehan and O’Sullivan Jeing the men he had lost, and his, financial backer had with- arawn, so that he would have to throw up thé contract to furnish a Greene- ville team. Manager Gagnon for the Lafayettes of Tattville and Manager Michael Ryan for the Independents of Norwich Towa were willing to stick'to the league, if the others would, but there was un- certainty as to what the C. A. C. team would do, and after a short discussion it was the unanimous vote that the league disband. The various managers will now go ahead and hook games for their teams independently.

Ira Plank, the star pitcher of the Northampton baseball team, reachdd Springfleld Tuesday night and stopped over to chat with the Springfield play- ers before going on to the Meadow City. Plank, who, with his brother Ed- die of the Athhletic, owns a big farm near Gettysburg, is apparently in prime condtion. He appears well pleased with the shift that brings him up into Massactusetts and sald last night that the Noithampton team will have little troubie in tweting Springfield and 1fol- yoke. He bases his claim én the fact that last year's Meriden team took five ganies frcm Springfield before drop- i cne to the Ponies, and he figures the psce would have been kept up his tewm been given support in the ths hal Silver Cty. He went to Northampton Wednesday aight. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. WAVERING TENDENCY. Market Shows Less Stability—Closed Under Consideraple Pressure. New York, April 13.—There was a ering tendency in the stock market which changed its recent sem- blance of stability. The resumption.of activities abroad after the Easter holi- day interval was partly responsible for this, the selling of stocks here for for- ein account arguing some distrust of this market's rate of advance. An ele- ment in the home speculation that feels the same distrust is not lacking, end its activities were joined to the de- pressing influence from abroad to fect the market. This element urges the lack of news bearing on events to account for the rising tendency of prices, and points out features in the tiade and crop situation that are claimed as making for decline rgther than advance. The plethoric condition ¢f the money market is allczed to be soiely responsible for the iom with wiich speculative purchases of stocks are made, and it is pointed out that the speculative activity is common to stocks, wheat and _cotton, _though causes which raise the price of these articles might be regarded as making against values of railroad stocks. For- eigh markets were reported to be dis- wuleted to some extent by the dis- turbances in Constantinople, and trad- ers in the home market sold stocks in the late dealings op the assumption that thiere may be further uneasiness abroad on that account in future. Some of the operations for lower prices to- day came from speculators who had s0ld their holdings yesterday to meet the new demand from outside sources, and, having reu'ized their profits in v, hoped to see lower prices at ~ 10 rel ;. The market was not n piints of strength, and at ng the day the show of firm- time s v \ess extended generally throughout tne The market closed under consid- . :hfe pressure and with prices run- ning off.

HOSPITALS’ LINEUP. With Wicks for Captain a Winning Season Is Expected. Manager J. A. Farrell of the Hos- pita] baseball team has done some skirmishing around in the last few days, perfecting a lineup, which he gives out as follow: Brisbois ¢, Zemke p, Austin 1b, Wick (capt.) 2b, Tim Sullivan ss, Stryhall 3b, Fowler if, Paine cf, Gardner rf. This, it is be- ‘WILLIAM H. WICKS. lieved, will be a lineup that will put up a fight that will sustain the high record made last year. In securing William H. Wicks as captain, the team is fortunate, a ball- player of experience in both profes- sional and semi-professional ranks for several years, Having played semi- professional ball in and around New York city for four years, 1904-1907, and finishing the season of 1907 with the A. J. and G. team of the New York State league, ho understands all parts of the game, As he is a hard worker he cannot fai] to install the same spirit in the players of this year's team. Last year he had a try out with the Fall River team of the New Eng- land league, but owing to an injured arm, caused, presumably, by his early spring practice, he falled to show his usual good form and returned to the hospital where his playing attracted much local attention. On account of his sunny disposition he is very pop- ular among the players and he has the well wishes of all that know him for a successful season. Manager Farrell is ready to hear from strong teams that want a date on the seehdule. Wauregan Houge Ball Team. The Wauregan house baseball tegm has besn organized with P. J. Scan- lon as captain and John R. Robinson manager and treasurer. They are prac- ticing daily mornings on the battl ground and are meking a strong show- ing already. Games have been prom- ised them by the Barbers, the Bartend- ers, the Main street clerks, and the Grocery Clerks, but the dates are mot yet set. Besides Captain _Scanlon, the con- tracts signed are with Joe Sullivan and Harry Allen,who_are pitchers, and Cole- man, Bruette, Hyman, Lewis, Haley, and T, Moran for the other positions, with Bogosshian and Morse as substi- tutes. f 4lv*l‘ll>' Hard to Dig g I | The Young would like to play tl urday morning abou M'GRATH TRAINING.
