The score was 13 to 7. features of the game were few far between, London was a trifle worse in this re- spect, Nasher being the principal of- fen Manley was on the mound for Wil- however. during the first six in- but in the seventh started to them across the pan, when he could locate it. and the Whalers laced it four cracking clean hits, which was a dandy homer by Foye. Smith went in for the last twb in- nings and held New London to two hits and struck out four men. Johnny Reiger, a brother of Fred- die. slanted them up for the visitors and was hit pretty hard in the fifta inning when six hits were obtained and kept the other five well scattered, but given very ragged support by er, who pegged wild many a time real feature that was unusual was a double play by New London on three strikes. Manley was at bat and struck out, with O’Donnell on first run- ning . for D’Andrea. but Foye dropped the ball and Manley slowed up and then started to run again and then stopped as the ball was thrown down to Nasher, who was covering second and O'Donnell was caught and th Nasher doubled back to Loveday, wha was playing first. O'Donneli, Sullivan. Nichols and Patrick hit well for the Colts and “Shaun” Sullivan also made 2 fine running catch of a hard line drive. Noonan fielded well, although he made a couple of errors upon ones that he could have eaten up with ease. O'Mara caught a good game consider- ing Manley’s wildness. The best stunt was Nichols steal of home base in the fifth inning. Tt was announced that the next game on the local grounds would be on Fri- day with Middletown.

Desmond of the Centrals Manager George Casey of ~Norwich Town, and Manager W. H. Bowen of the Greeneville teams—were present, together with Manager John A. Farrell of the Hospital team. Manager Farrell stated his proposi- tion, and as it was favorably acted up- on he immediately posted his forfeit of $5, and a twelve week schedule for his team, besinning Saturday, was drawn up and adopted as follows, all the games to be plaved on Saturdays on the Hospital diamond August 20, Norwich Town: August 27, Centrals; September 3, Greeneville; September 10, Norwich Town: Septem- ber 17, Centrals; September. 24,Greene- ville; October 1, Norwich Town: Octo- ber 8 Centrals: October 15, Greene- ville; ‘October 22, Norwich Town; Uc- .

As the Hospital team has a number of plavers that are also on other teams in the league, there wlil bo openings for more plavers. It was voted at the meeting to admit ladies free of charge to the grandstand at Sachem park. Manager Farrell of the Hospital eam was elected official scorer, tak. ng the place of Joseph P. Desmond, whose other duties are too pressing to allow him continue in this position. The addition of the strong Hospital team to the league will undoubtedly prove a strong factor in its success, the directors believe. Wakefield Will Catch for Naps. Cleveland.

Trading was more active and embraced many specialties, such as Colorado Fuel and Iron, Colorado Southern, American Beet Sugar, National Bis- cuit, American Ice, Central and’ International Harvester. The movement in these stocks was almost wholly manipulative and presumably for account of various pools. Later in the day the more active sues, including Reading. Union Pa- cific Southern Pacific, Atchison, S:. Paul. United ‘ States Steel, Amalga- mated Copper and Apgrican Smelters participated in the advance. Rumors of a forthcoming ageregation of Read- ing’s assets were once more revived, and received some credence by reason of the strength of Lehigh Valley in the = Philadelphia market. Canadian Pacific was active and strong in con- nection with reports that the company had increased its sphere of activ by the purchase of the Alian line of steamers The day adverse news features included the foreign trade re port for July, which showed another exc o imports over exports, a re- duction in the dividend on the pre- ferred stock of the United States Cast Iron Pipe company and the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against one of smaller southern- iron companies. On the other hand, marked improve- ment was reported in the general tex: tile situation, and much of the day’ news respecting crops was at least favorable. On_the stock exchange sentiment was more cheerful, traders taking the ground that the {immediate outlook seems conducive to a better marke:. The opinion, -however _was aimost wholly negative in. character, being founded largely on the belief that many contingencies have already been discounted by the present price levels and that stocks are no longer being pressed for sale. There appears to be a more active demand for the bettsr grade of bonds, and the tone of that narket offers more encouragement than for a long time past. In the late session the market be- came more brisk and a generaily higher level of prices was recorded. This advantage Wwas almost fully main- tained to the close, which was active and strong. In some quarters there was a disposition to attribute the in- reased strength of the market to the rejection of Col. Roosevelt's name “for the temporary chairmanship of the republican state convention, but this view was not seriously accepted in conservative circles. London was again a seller here at the outset, but bought moderately in the late session. The bond market was . steady throughout, with governments un- changed.

NEW HAVEN New Haven, Conn,, Aug. 18.—Thom- as Leahy, a ball player well known in the state and a former member of the St. Louls Nationals, attempted suicide at his home on Summer street tonight by cutting his throat with a razor. He succeeded in cutting the jugular vein, ‘but was found in time to stop the flow of blood and was taken to a local hos- pital, where his recovery is assured. Leahy caueht for two vears for the St. Louis Nationals, going from tnere to Indianapolis of the American asso- ciation, playing through one season and part of a second, when he was obliged to quit on account of an in- jury to a leg. From Indianapolis he went to the Minneapolis team of the same -league. but his injured leg pre- vented his playing. Last year he start- ed the season with the New Britain team of the Connecticut State league, but again his injury prevented his con- tinuing. The first of the present sea- son he played first basé for New Ha- ven, but could not continue on account of his injury, and was appointed an umpire, Which position he held until released.
