Twelfth Annual Trials Will Be: Held at Hampton October 25. has The twelfth annual trials of the Connecticut Field Trial club will be held on the club preserve at Hamp- ton. commencing Tuesday morning, October 25. The annual drawing of the club will be held on the evening before at 8 o'clock at the Prospect house. The drawing for starting or- der will take place at the meoting. The reports from the preserve are encouraging and indicate that birds are much more plenty than for mev- erai seasons past. This condition, coupled with the interest and enthusi- asm shown by all who attended the trials last year, augurs well for a most successful and satisfactory meet this yea Last fall the membership cup was won outright by Russell Perkins with Lemon's Rodfield. Mr. Perkins has now generously offered the club a new cup to be competed for annually un- der the same conditions as governed Ahe running for the old Membership cup, and has provided an intrinsically valuable and historically interesting cup of genuine antique Sheffield ware. Competition for this beautiful trophy promises to be keen and the member- ship stake will be one of the features of the trials. S. C. Bradley has again consented to act as judge. During the meet a bench show will be held, to which every competing dog will be eligible. D. A. Goodwin will judge the dogs and as the very cream of setter and pointer breeding is rep- resented in the entry lists this feature will be interesting and Instructive. The annual complimentary dinner to | the landowners and leading citizens of Hampton will be given on Wednes- day evening, October 26. Everything points to a big and clas- sy entry list and a banner event thi fall. Year by year the trials have fmproved in quality until now they | rank with the best In the country. A better crowd of congenial sportsmen | cannot be found east or west, north or south, than those who gather once a year at old Hampton for an enjoy- able time. Entries should be ad- | dressed to C. H. Gillette, secretary- treasurer, Hartford. The list close: October i2. BALTIC Blocks Three Games In American League—Other ATHLETIC CLUB Won from Workingmen’s Social Club in Deciding Game.

OPENED THE WEEK STRONGER. Stock Market Gave Sign: of More Life —Reading Conspicuous. T { | | | New York, Sept. 26.—The stock mar- ket today gave signs of more life and | | took on a semblance of breadth and | strenghth. The increased congestion the dealings in Reading as the day | | progressed lessened the appearance of breadth and restored that of narrow | professionalism, which has been the | fault of the market for some time past. | Sales of Reading made up over 40 per cent. of the day's aggregate transac- tions The stress latd by the current spec ulation on the question of raisin | treight rates was exemplified again by the Influence of the reported action of raiiroad labor orgenizations to further | the requesis of the railroads to be lowed to advance rates. Another in- fluence connected with this topic was the pains taken by Commissioner Lane o review his remarks at the railroa ate hearing on the subject of In- creased freight charges. This was tak- en s intended to deprecate the con- struction placei on these remarks in the stock market last week, which | nade them place the commissioner | definitely jof the rz opposition to the demands ads which | of the inquiry. T.ondon joined buying on a liberal scale, and | was a substantial demand also from | covered shorts. | The conspicuous strength of Read ing at first was made an argument in favor of the general advance, but later became the grounds for some doubt 4 hesitation over the general move- | ent. The news regarding the stock | vas confined to surmises over the ty of the large buyers, thess| pointing to varlous well known op- | ira of the first magnitude in spec Ulative campalgns. There appeared at | the same time analyses of the com- | pany's finances and progress calculat- ed to sustain estimates of higher value for the shares. but presenting no new | facts. The large proportion of the to- | tal Reading stock held in the treas- iries of other rallroads to influence | ie control and by estates and in- vestors make it an attractive medium always for organized market move- | ments, and makes the short interest in | the stock particularly vuinerable. Tt/ was on account of this well known | market position of Reading that sus- | picion of the movement grew as the | operations engrossed an increasing proportion of the whole market. The hardening tendency of monev | | rates was lsmoredsin the conviction | | that the causes for it were temporary | and 1ay in the preparations for the Oc- | tober settlements.
