Dur- _the game the Baltic band will play and ‘before the game there will be a street rrule in which the players and of- cials of both clubs will ride in auto- mobiles ‘preceded by the band to the new grounds near: the Shetucket river in the lower end of the town. Last year when the grounds were laid out they ranked among the best in this part of the state and a con- tractor has put them in tip top con- dition for this season and made a few improvements. ™ Manager Donnelly has filled out a stiff schedule and booked the All Stars for the opening date as the reputation they made last year makes | them the best drawing card in East- ern Connecticut. He expects to defeat the Norwich boys and has put the star twirler Love down to shoot ‘em wover. Ctaron will catch, as McCreedy, who was counted on to do the receiv- ing split his finger in practice last Saturday. The rest of the lineup is not fully decided as yet. Dan Mara will be on the mound for the stars and if he pitches as well as he did against Wauregan last Saturday, Man- ager Hughes has no doubt but he will return with another victory on his belt. Koski will be behind the bat. The stars go up on the 1.45 car and will be accompanied by a large delega- tion of rooters. They lineup as fol- lows: Hughes r.f, Standish, 1. f., McManus, 2b., Houlihan, ss., Fields, <. f. Calkins, 1b., Koski, c., Shahan, 3b., Mara, p. Manager Hughes has induced left fielder Calkins of the Sachems to sign with him and he will hold down the initial sack. s TAFT ERRED IN v NOT SELLING CUBS. Result is the Club Has Become Un- populal The opinion in Chicago is that Charles Taft, the owner of the Cubs, made an error when he refused to sell to the Chicago syndicate, for senti- ment has been turned against the Cubs as a resuit. The dicate that offered to buy the stock was made up of Chicago men who are well known, and had they sqfured the franchise the team would have most probably become popular. 5 | ‘When Taft barred the way to own- ership he turned a good percentage of the Chicago fans against the club. There is a lot of deep, dark mystery, by the way, about the sale of the Cubs and opinion is equally ided as to whether Murphy still owns the con- trolling factor in the elub. The outcome of this is that the new- Iy established -Chifeds are finding the way soft in Chicago and all they have 8ot to do is to put a winning team on the diamond, and there is no question that under the good leadership of Joe Tinker things will break in their favor. FAVOR SMITH TO BEAT CARPENTIER. Opinions Divided, But French People Like Gunboat’s Actions. Hver since the Georges Carpentier- Gunboat Smith match was first broached, speculation has been rife o in England and France regarding the merits of the American white hope. ‘Many and various are the opinions set forth. Apparently the French fans ‘have been following Gunboat's career closely, as they appear to have formed a more accurate estimate than that of the English critics.. In England, Carpentier’s chances are rather favored. Gunboat is said to be extremely slow in action, although hi hitting power is admitted to be above the ordinary. It is thought that he will not be able to land on the clever Frenchman. In Paris, however, Gunboat’s prow- ess is rated highly. Carpentier is ad- vised to keep away from the American and to rely upon his skill and foot-. work to avoid Smith’s dangerous blows land cleanly. should the fury of the battl /better of Carpentier’'s judgment, caus- ing him to mix it, he will be knocked through the ropes by the American’s savage onslaught. OUTLAWS’ APPEAL FILED. Chifeds Want Killifer Stopped from Playing. The appeal of the Chicago Federal league club from the decision of United States Judge Sessions at Grand Rapids in the case against the Phila- delphia National league club relative to Catcher Killifer has been filed in the United States circuit court of appeals. This formal filing followed an an- Rouncement made by Judge Sessions last week that he had allowed the Chicago Federal league club an appeal from his court. Catcher Killifer a member of the Philadelphia National league club, signen a contract to play with the Chicago Federal league club, and af- terwards went back to the Philadel- phia club. The Chicago club then asked for an injunction against Kil- lifer playing with the Philadelphia club, and this injunction was denied, the court ruling that the Federal league had not come into court “with clean hands.” The appeal asks that the injunction be granted. The appeal will probably not be taken up until the fall term of court. HARRY LORD QUITS GAME. Disgusted with_Own Playing, Veteran Retires from Ball Field, Harry Lord, the veteran third base- man and captain of the Chicago Amer- icans, has quit baseball because “he felt himself slipping,” according to a dispatch from Washington. TLeaving word with another player for Man- ager Callahan, saying that he was dis- gusted with his own poor playing, Lord left- the team in Washington and boarded a train for his home in Maine, Manager Callahan has decided to make Shortstop Weaver the captain of the club, putting Alcock on third hase and Blackburn back at second, accord- ing to the dispatch. Lord came to the Chicago club from Boston in 1910, CORNELLYATHLETES INJURED Newman Pulls Tendon—Twe Others Hurt.

New York, May 14—The deadlock was broken in the stock market to- day. Quotations advanced definitely for the recent fixed level, and deal- ings, while not so heavy, were con- siderably more active than during the last few days of abnormal dullness. Stocks of all classes shared in the improvement which put many of them 1 to 2 points higher. The' advance while slow was steady without an in- terval of heaviness during the day. Although there was no important change in the speculative outlook, traders were not at a loss to account for the day's rise. The news from Mexico was referred to as distinctly bullish. The fall of Tampico was in- terpreted as an indication that’ the elimination of General Huerta might soon be accomplished, which, it was thought, would enhance the prospects of peaceful settlement of this coun- try’s difficulties with Mexico. This feeling was reflected in a buoyant ad- vance in Mexican Petroleum issues, owing to the presumption that the company’s properties in the Tampico district will no longer be in the fight- ing zone. As the market advanced there was evidence of uneasiness among the shorts and it was apparent that the sustained rise was due partly to an oversold condition. nother influence making for higher prices was the more cheerful sentiment in regard to the Steel trade. Last night's reviews by trade authorities took a better tone and it was hoped that a definite im- provement might soon come to relieve the long depression. Speculation in . 8. Steel was the most active fea- ture of the market and it developed pronouineed strength. Sterling exchange advanced again, reaching a new high point for the movement. Bankers were of the opin- ion that gold coin could he exported profitably with demand sterling at 4.88.50 which is not far from the rui- ing lavel.

BRAVES —P-}OTEGTS GIANT’S VICTORY. Claims Snodlrl-—o;'*Cl;en- Catch was mpossible— That the Ball was Trapped. The 2-0 game won on the Polo Grounds by the New York Giants last Saturday has been protes-ed to President Tenner of the Natiopal League by President James E. Gafiney and Manager George Stallings of the Boston club. The protest is based on a_ decision by Umpire Rigler which allowed a ‘dircus fkatch,” made by Snodgrass, on Whaling in the seccnd inning. It was physically impossible for Snodgrass to have caught this ball, according to Stallings, who said he had ten reputable witnesses, seated in the rightfleld grandstand, willing to make affidavits that Fnodgrass trapped ihe ball. The play had an important bear- ing on the resul§ of the game, the Boston manager contended, because it broke up what appeared to be a bat- ting raily, a double play canceling a Tun which had crossed the plate Stallings said further that Tyler was interfered with by Doyle when Tyier was retired in a double play in the sixth, and also that four strikes were pitched to Meyers in the seventh he- fore the Giant catcher made a two- base hit which won the game. Ten Eyck Picks Syracuse Crew. James A. Tén Eyck, coach of the Syracuse University crews, has an- nounced the make-up of the crew which will represent the Orange in the first elghts race at the American re- gatta at Philadelphia on Saturday. Six of the eight men who rowed Syra- cuse to victory at hkeepsie last June will be seated. The crew will be placed as follows: Stroke, Glass; No. No. 6, Capt.
