Series Opposed. Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 6.~Hatv?rd’s practice for the game with Princeton was finished behind closéd gates in the Stadium today. It lasted only half an hour, during which there was much punting and drop Kkicking. Mahan, transferred temporarily to the second team, had a punting duel with Hardwick, in which both men made several kicks of more than fifty yards. The coa.ches expressed much satisfaction with the showing. Brickley’s toe also was in action. BRICKLEY, Star Halfback on l'Iarva.rd Eleven.

Chicago, Nov. 6-—The American league in its brief annual meeting to- day, voted unanimously against the proposal to substitute a general inter- league series for the world’s series as now played; discussed informally the demands of the players’ federation and pronounced several of them able”; appointed a committee to rep- resent it in a small convention to con- sider revision of the rules. The meeting disposed of a number of routine matters, including the re- election of Chaarles W. Somers, pres- ident of the Cleveland club, as vice president. A new board of directors, consisting of the presidents of the clubs at St. Louis, Detroit, Washing- ton and Philadelphia, was elécted, these four succeeding the other four presidentst. No trades were announced and most of the men present said they had not talked trade during the session or af- ter it. Manager Birmingham declared his team would remain intact, thus disposing of a reported attempt by the Chicago to get one of the Cleve- land outfielders. Robert McRoy said that Cady would probably remain with Boston, though the club has one su- perfluous catcher. Would Shorten Season. The league will suggest the shorten- ing of the playing season by starting it on April 14 and ending it on Oc- tober 7. The dates, however, depend on the National league agreeing to them. The date for the schedule meet- ing was not announced. Not a dissenting voice was heard when President Johnson proposed that on record as favoring league pennant winners. The plan to have a general campaign was brought up recently by August Herrmann, hairman of the National commi: and would have provided that every team in one circuit play every other {in the other, Will Grant Some Demands. It was specified that the talk on the players demands was “strictly in- formal.” The league received no of- ficlal list of demands from Presi- dent Fultz of the féderation, but a series of reforms the players drawn up had been sent to every club owner by the national commission and these were gone over in an open dis- cussion.

New York, Nov. 6.—The main move- ment in stocks today was decisively downward, although in the early trad- ing there was a small advance. In spite of the market's showing of strength yesterday no attempt was made to extend the rise, and after some further purchases by the shorts early in the day prices hegan to fall. Bulls were reluctant to take on stocks, fear- ing that some grave development in the Mexican situatign might suddenly upset the market. It was this influence, in fact, which was most effective in de- termining the actibn of the market. Reports which the street heard in the early afternoon that the Huerta admin- tration had deaided to adopt a defi- wnt attitude toward this government ponsible for the sh: dip .in the market which came at that leum and Nation- time. ‘Mexican Petr al, Railw of Mexico second prefer- red were ‘cspecially weak.

Forecasts of the month- ly statement of United States Steel pointed to a falling off in unfilled or- ders of perhaps 35,000 tons. Incoming business was said to be comparatively small. Blocks of several thousand shares of steel were thrown on the market, and the price broke rapidly for a time. Amalgamated, influenced by the drop in the London metal market, was equally weak. Railroad shares went down with the industrials, and by the time the session ended various representative yles showed losses in the neighborhood of two points. Mexi- {-can Petrolenm was weakened by ‘the failure of the directors to take action on the di®idend at the postponed me: g of the board. ' The decline in Na- tional Railways of Mexico second pre- ferfed brought it to 11, compared with 2%#1-2 earlier in the year.

New York, Nov, 6.—The executive committee gof the board of directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company at a meet- today voted that “the board of directors take such action as will result in an extension of the time with- in which holders of warrants evidenc- ing rights of subscription to convert- ible debenture of 1913 may exercise their rights of subscription and may make payment of at least the first in- stalment thereon to the close of bus- iness on November 16, 1913.” The directors, it was announced, will meet on Tuesday next.

Early in the fall n- nouncement was made that the Eng- lish methods would be used again, but since the defeat by Princeton there has béen a storm of protest from under- graduates and graduates alike.# The | protests had the effect of causing the rowing authorities to take ghe matter i under consideration. The Yale Alumni Weekly, which has supported the coaching methods “be- cause of the vital thecry involved,” to- day discusses the situation, in part, as follows: “It is a condition, not a theo- ry, that today confronts Yale rowing. The whole purpose of the graduate | coaching movement was to bring the | graduates and co-operative relation in the building of a Yale school of rowing. This has not worked out as had been expected. But that some way can be found in which it can, work out we believe is still possible. “In rowing, as in baseball and foot- kall, a permanent resident coach may be looked for, and if this coa can be a graduate of the unive o much If he cannot found maddy graduates will want be to go out into the open market and secure the | | best available man who makes the | teaching of rowing technigue his busi~ But such a man, it ought tg be | understood at the start, should be un- | der the control of Yale men.

BANQUET FOR PLANK. Two Hundred Friends Gather to Hon- or Veteran TW|rler. Gettysburg, Pa., .\ov. 6.—~Two hun- dred of Eddie Plank’s home folks gath- ered here tonight to honor the veteran orate banquet. Guests of honor were Manager Connie Mack, Eddie Collins and Harry Davis of the Philadelphia American league club, while baseball enthusiasts from all the nearby towns joined in the event. Most of those who part E in the affair were schoolboy friends of Plank and many came-~from distant towns to pay tribute to their baseball idol. As a special token a diamond scarf pin was presented from his Get- tysburg friends, the presentation being made by Judge S.

Six Teams Together After 824 Miles— Sprint Fails to Break Tie, Boston, No —An hour of sprint- ing tonight failed to break up the tie among the six leading teams in the six day bicycle race at the Arena. At ten o’clock they had made 824 miles, 4 laps. The Ryan-Corry and Coburn- Carmen combinations were one lap behind while the Kopsky-Keefe team dropped another lap and were two be- hind the leaders. The riding was slow at the start most of the racers being stiff from many falls. Jimmy Moran then sprint- ed and for an hour tried to shake off his pursuers. He had a good lead but his teammate Cavanaugh, wz slow in picking him up so that the race be- came nearly even once more.

COMMISSION MAY LISTEN TO FULTZ Lynch Belleves “Everythmg Can Be Arranged Satisfactorily”” Daley and Schalk; Wiltse New York, Nov. 6.—Under certain conditions, David L. Fultz will receive a hearing before the national commis~ sion as president of the Baseball Play- ers’ Fraternity when the players’ de- mands for changes in contract tefms are presented, according to President Lynch of the National league. Al- though Chairman Herrmann of the commission some time ago declared Fultz, as an “outsider” would not be received as the men’s representative, President Liynch expressed a different view tonight. “The demands framed by Fultz in ‘behalf of the fraternity are not unfair, taking them as a whole,” said Mr. Lynch, “and I believe that eveMthing can be arranged satisfactorily if the fraternity will send a committee of players to confer with the commission. If Fultz is a member of that com- mittee, I see no reason why he should not be heard for in a general discus- sion the players themselves will learn first hand what the commission is willing to do.” Enthusiastic Send-Off for Brown.
