Tol, Es. nd 32 Water St. Capt. “Bill” Wicks of the State hos- pital baseball team took the local fol- lowers of the running game off their feet on Saturday when he hung up ‘the magnificent time of 1 hour 23 minutes 8 seconds for the New London to Nor- wich road records, beating out by 2 minutes 52 seconds the mark of 1 hour 26 minutes made by Tom Tuckey of Montville two weeks ago. Wicks like- wise left in the rear by 20 minutes and 52 seconds the mark of 1.44 made on Christmas day by Clifford Hilton, the plucky little Englishman who pried the 1id off the running game with his mid- wintaw offort. The three speedy en- WILLIAM H. WICKS, durance men promise a great afternoon of sport when they meet next Satur- day at Sachem park in a 15-mile race to settle the question of supremacy. Cheers for the Champion. Finishing in this city at the Y. M. C. A. building at 4.28.05, paced by Sam Austin for the final dash, Wicks re- ceived a continuous ovation from Thames square through Main street and Broadway to the finish line. Thames square was packed with peo- ple who opened up a lane for the run- ners and the automobile containing the officials, and the same was true at .the Norwich Savings society corner and up Broadway. But for Officers Henderson and Irish, the runner would have had difficulty in get- ting through, but they cleared the path effectively for the coming champion. Forgetting that the pacemaking auto was coming, Policeman Irish steppsd out into the track after Wicks had gone by, but Driver Mitchell clamped on the brakes, skilfully bringing the machine to a stop with nothing to spare between the radiator and the po- liceman. Best Time eYt. When the time was given out that made the sturdy hospital man the champion distance runner of the coun- ty for this course, the crowd split the air with cheers for Wicks, who was hustied off to the Wauregan house, where he and Austin took a bath and were soon on the streets, Wicks fin- ished with signs of leg-weariness in the last mile and a half, but his grit was good and kept him plugging along to_his star performance. The funner was given the word at exactly 3.05 p. m. at the New London Y. M. C. A, after having been put in condition for the gripd by Samuel A. Johnson of New York, who recently weént over the same route in 1.45. John L. Mitchell of this city having kindly volunteered the use of his automobile to make the pace and carry the officials of the race, took a picture of the start and then trailed in after Wicks, who was speeding down State and along Main street northward. According to the arrangements made by Sporting Editor Whitney of The Bulletin, the following officials made up the automo- bile part Allyn L. Brown, refere Roy Evans, Martin Keough and Sport- ing Editor Whitney, judges and timers. Distance Is 13 Miles. Three watches took the time as Wicks reeled off the miles and the dis- tance was measured by the cyclometer FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

This settled the ‘question of the distance which has been a mat- ter of dispute up te this time, and it was found to be 13 miles instead of 14.

Wicks took rather short steps for such a big man, but got along at a space-devouring stride and step- ped off the first five miles in 31 min- utes 26 seconds. In this stretch the miles were made as follows: ©5.26, 6.38, 6.22, 6.25, 6.35. In the second five miles he made somewhat slower time, encountering the hills between Montyille and Mo- hegan church in the eighth and ninth miles, which were his two slowest, be- ing done in 6.45 and 7.10,. The time from the sixth to the tenth miles were 6.38, 6.43_ 6.45, 7.10 and 6.17 1-2, making 33 minutes 33 1-2 seconds for the sec- ond five miles and 1 hour 4 minutes 59 1-2 seconds for 10 miles. For the even hour Wicks covered 9 3-10 miles. Going Strong at 10 Miles. After the tenth mile Wicks was still going strong. Letting himself out on Some of the downhill grades, he put the next two behind him in 6.21 1-2 and 6.20. For about the last two miles he was paced in by Sam Austin who was waiting by the read just this side of the Trading Cove bridge. At Trading cove two boys with bicycles met the runner and accompanied him back, while in_Thamesville Sherwood B. Potter and S. P. Coffey in an auto- mobile, with several Norwich men in teams, were added to the retinue that followed him to the finish. Sam Austin took the running board of the machine when Central wharf was reached, but took to the ground agaif in front of Porteous & Mitchell’s, helping to spur Wicks on to 5.27 for the final stretch, which was a scant mile, showing on the cyclometer be- tween 12 9-10 and 13 miles. No Walking on This Trip. Throughout the long grind, Wicks kept to a jog, never slowing down to a walk, although he eased up a little on the hardest hills. He ran in a white running trunks, sleeveless shirt and sneaks_ starting with a sweater on but throwing this off in the first mile. Tuckey’s Backers Not Afraid. Johnson, who helped get him ready for the runm, took the car up from New London, and was in at the finish, while a group of Tuckey's friends was assembled at the Montville station to see him pass. Others were also on the finish line and when the time wa san- nounced promptly announced their willingness to back their man to meet it. Tuckey reeled off a training run between Norwich and Montville aon Saturday afternoon. The Hospital people were jubilant over the way their man had more than fulfilled alal the predictions they had made for him. From the dark horse in the competition he had landed with one bound in the champion’s place, and they are sure things look bright for him next Saturday. First Run Is a Topliner. ‘William H. Wicks, the new cham- pion, is a native of Boston, and is 27 years old. He is about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches tall and -weighs 146 pounds. Most of his life has been spent around this neighborhood, as he was raised on a Preston farm. With his long black hair and swarthy complexion he looks not unlike a countryman of Dorando, although he said Sunday night that looks were sometimes deceiving, He captained the State hospital baseball team last season, and has also played ball on New York state nines as well as having a tryout with Fall River when Bill Austin was on that team. This is the first running he has ever SATURDAY MARKETS. Not Enéugh Demand to Sustain Prices—Many Substantial Declines. New York, March 19—10.10 a. m.— Only trivial price-changes resulted from the dull opening dealings in stocks. The movement was irregular showing both gains and losses. Ches apeake & Ohio and Hocking Valley certificates_advanced 1 and American Telephone 5-8. 11 a. m.—There was not enough de- mand to sustain prices, and the list fell on increasingly large offerings, un- til there were many substantial de- clines. The western railroad stocks and United States Steel were the weakest features. Union Pacific sag- ged 1 5-8, Southern Pacific 1 3-8, and Amalgamated Copper 1 1-4. Hocking Valley certificates got up 6 points. Closing—The market closed heavy and dull. The anxiety which showed itself in the decline in prices was due to fears that the western railroad fire- men would strike, to uneasiness over the outcome of the New York city bond sale on Monday, and to the political upheaval at Washington. Rumors were current that the American Tobacco decision would be handed down on Monday. A fresh rise in London dis. counts renewed discussion of gold ex- ports. There was a dull, hardening movement when the shorts covered but the recovery was lost again. STOCKS. Sales. n ——— Allls Chalmers pfd . 11300 Amal. Copper . . Aricultural | Beet Sugar .

But Cambridge Has Many Supporter for Crew Event on Wednesday. London, March 20.—The annual boat race next Wednesday between Oxford and Cambridge promises to be one of the most exciting contests of recent years, fully maintzining the traditional popularity of the struggle between the ‘universities. Training has virtually been complet- ed and the best judges are reluctant to indulge in predictions as to the result. The betting has been in favor of Ox-— ford, but the Cantabs have improved so much of late that the betting is now about even. Oxford won last year in a nerve- racking struggle by three and one-half lengths, but only seven of the men who took part in the event on that occasion are engaged this year. Oxtord has the heaviest crew on_record, the average weight of the men, exdclusive of the coxswain, being 177 pounds, against the Cantabs’ average of 171 3-4. Be- sides the advantage in weight, the Ox- onians appear to work better together, but Cambridge is a fine smart crew with lively action and is certain to give the opposing crew a great race. In the trials Oxford has achieved the faster time for the course by several seconds, and the race Wedne: is generally expected to be a repetition of last year's, when the result was a close contest for half the distance. Then the dark blues’ weight and strength began to tell and they drew away at the end. DUCKPIN BOWLING. Qualifying for Plexo Team—Providence Pair at Rose Alleys This Week. The second week ended Saturday at the Rose alleys in the qualifying round to make up the Plexo team for the national duck and candlepin con- gress at Bostom, leaving eight teams on_the board, of which three are tied with a score of 635. The qualifying rounds have three weeks to run yet, Those that are on the board af pres- ent are McClafferty and Sturtevant 665, McClafferty and Maisack 664, Hill and Stone, 650, Marx and McClafferty 657, Stone and McClafferty 640, Harris and Hill, Marx and Stone, Harris and Stone, all 635. Daily prize for high single at the alleys on Saturday feil to the lost of Sturtevant, who rolled 125. Manager Stone has a feature match on at the alleys this week, when Besesr and Vickers of Providence come here to roll himself and a partner a match game. Both Providence men are high stand rollers at the duckpin game, and it will take good scores by the local men to stand a chance of taking their scalps. Papke Beat Lewis in Third. Billy Papke, the Illinois Thunderbolt, knocked out Willie Lewis in the fhird round, of their scheduled 20 round battle Saturday night at Paris. The fight was for the midleweight cham- pionship. The milling was of the ‘whirlwind variety-and each started out to finish things right off the rel. The last time the two met was in Pitts- ::nm last October. No decision was ven.

Subjects in Bulletin No. 3. Labor Bulletin No. 3 issued by Com- missioner Scoville of the Connecticut bureau of labor statistics has been made public. The opening pages of the bulletin are devoted to a brief re- view of the various subjects treated upon. In his reference to New Factory or Mill Construction Commissioner Sco- ville says. “It will be interesting to note that the expenditures for the pur- pose indicated. during the® year 1908 amounted to $1,791,167, while during the corresponding period of 1909 the sum expended was $2,064,100, an in- crease of $272,973 or 15.2 per cent.” Space in the bulletin is given to a Dbrief description of the operation of the “tenement house act” in the six cities to which the law applies. The work accomplished by the five free public employment bureaus is treated upon and a statement in detail of sit- uations secured for the unemployed is printed, as is also a brief description of the system adopted and in use by the superintendents of the offices, which, the commissioner says, “has proved a great improvement in materi- al_results attained.” Regarding labor disturbances such as are characterized as “strikes and lockouts” in the bulletin, Commission- er Scoville reports as being ‘“few in number during the year and are dis- tinguished _for the absence of any semblance of lawlessness, the most im- rtant of these difficulties being that ving reference to use of the union label in the hatting industry, with its resultant serious loss in time and in wages. A complete directory of the labor or- ganizations in the state appears in the bulletin, as does a revision of Connec- ticut labor laws and a resume of legis- !Bllofl relating to the interest of labor introduced into and rejected by the general assembly of 1909, In referring to the recent verdict in the “hatters case,” the bulletin say: “The important principle was decided that labor organizations have no spe- cial rights under ‘the anti-trust law and must suffer legal penalties for practising intimidation and similar re- straints on trade and commerce. Just as any other corporation or organiza- tion much which undertakes to use an illegal weapon like the blacklist or the secondary boycott. Analyzing the de- cision, it is plain that under it an em- ploying firm or corporation is entitled to discharge its employes if contracts do not prevent, and the employes have a right to agree not to use the articles manufactured by the employer. The boycotted concern is not entitled to conspire with other concerns to deprive the boycotters of employment, or to threaten or annoy other concerns which do employ them. Similariy the boycotters must not use intimidation to discourage outsiders from handling or buying the boycotted firm's prod- ucts. Briefly stated, the parties to the quarrel must deal each with the other and refrain from drawing innocent | third parties into the controvers: The bulletin also contains brief ex- cerpts from a thesis by Lindley D. Clark, AM., LL.M., upon the legal li- of employers for injuries to their employes. AMERICAN RHODES SCHOLARS ARE POINT WINNERS. McDonald and Putnam in Oxford- Cambridge Meet—Cambridge Wins. Cambridge won in the annual inter- varsity sports with Oxford, 7 points to 3. at London, Eng., on Saturday. Ox- ford was victorious a year ago, but her gefeat Saturday was no suprise, as L. C. Hull, the American Rhodes schol- ar from Michigan, and who had been relied upon to win the 100 vards dash and the quarter mile run, as he did last year, was unable to compete owing to a sprained tendon in the heel, Both events went to the light blues. The captain of the Oxford Athletic club ap- peared from the start to have scarcely a chance of winning Saturday. The Americans, MacDonald and Putnam, won the 120 yards hurdles and_the hammer throw, respectively, but Put- nam was considerably below his usual form both in the hadmmer throw and putting thes hot. In the latter event he was able to do but 36 feet 4 inches against the Cambridge winner's low put of 87 feet. The performances as a whole were much below par and none of the records were even approached. M. T. MacDonald, an American Rhodes scholar at Lincoln college, Ox- ford university, won the 120 yards hurdles. His time was 16 seconds. George E. Putnam of Ottawa, Kan- sas, another Rhodes scholar, won the hammer throwing event for Oxford with 148 feet 8 inches. YALE’'S GREAT CAPTAIN DEAD. Jim Hogan, Football Strong Man, Passed Away on Sunday. James H. Hogan, the famous Yale football captain, died at the Elm City hospital in New Haven at 1.30 Sunday morning. An_acute attack of uraemia induced by Bright's disease, from which he had suffered for about a year and which became very much aggra- vated from an attack of srip while at work in New York in January, was given by Dr. Whittemore, one of the attending physicians, as the cause. Mr. Hogan was conscious up to within a few moments of his death. His mother and a brother and sister had accompanied him to New Haven and were at his bedside when he pass- ed away. He had given indication of a rally when the acute attack of uraemia came on and death followed immedi- ately. City League Meeting and Umpires.
