The Harvard Alumni Bulletin ex- rowing against Yale on the ground that it was found impossible to keep the crew together at a higher stroke than was rowed. It is true, the Bul- letin says, that-the stroke was at, or below thirty, most of the time, and mlso that the plan had been to row considerably higher, with hope that the Yale crew, in order to keep up with Harvard, would be forced above its natural and best pace and thus disorganized. But the Harvard captain and stroke oar .found soon after the race began than it was prac- tically impossible to keep the men together even at 32 or thereabouts, and consequently that the crew went much better at a slow stroke than at a.high one. “The, fundamental trouble with the Harvard eight” says the Bulletin, “ay, it is believed, in the manner in which it was developed. The poicy for several years has been to teach .the crew to row a very high stroke, thirty-five or thirty-six to the minute for the earlier races of the season, in- cluding the Cornell race which comes late in May, and the ‘nin.a period of three weeks or thereabouts, to change radically the kind of stroke rowed. * * * This method has been gen- erally successful in the past seven or eight years, But it.fafled 6 this year either because the Harvard men did not wholly forget what they had been taught earlier fn the season, or be- cause the Yale crew was faster than in other years, or as the’ result of a coincidence of both these causes.” MOTORCYCLE ENTRIES. Local Boys Give in Their Names for Event at the Fair Grounds. The motorcycle race for local men will have Chappell and Ben Davis of Franklin, Jim Ringland of Greene- ville and H. B. Baldwin of Norwich as entries at the Fair Grounds on the Fourth of July. Charles Armes of Springfield who rides for a factory there entered the open race yesterday, and so ‘did Ben- ny Driscoll, a Hartford boy, reported to be a fiver. Both are likely to give Prescott, Cox, Burdick and Latham a good stiff race from the crack of the pistol. Manager Pedleton promises fast entries in every one of the motor- cycle races.

The Sachems, as everybody knows, have been playing gilt edge ball through the season, are working petter and better as the season wears on, and will put up a gamey exhibition of baseball. Cranker is Manager Mc- Burney’s choice to appear on the mound and he is full of confidence that the New London lad can repeat the trick he turned on the Hospital team in the early part of the season. Walsh, the old standby in the receiving line, will catch for the Sachems. In.an interview with Manager Chase of the Hospital he asserts that the Sachems cannot repeat their perform- ance in defeating his team and that he has had the boys out afternoons getting stiff practice both in the field and at bat and says that Cranker's dewdrops and floaters are due to see all the corners of the lot. The_ athletic meet is under the au- spices of the River View club of the state hospital and they have selected the following men to act as judges: Thomas J. Kelly, James L. Crawford and W. R. Stevens. The events are open only to em- ployes of the institution, and not out- siders, and are to start promptly at 1 o'clock, so as to give plenty of time for the baseball game.

A 3, razor Chicago, July 1—The Federal League will invoke the Sherman anti- trust law in its fight for the services | yesterday. “that his verse ruling in the federal court of ap- peals in the Killifer case at Cincinnati Neither the ten day clause nor the reserve rule, on .which the main federal fight has been based, was directly involved in the Killifer case, he said, and with added evidence he declared himself confldent that the higher court woul sustain the 'claim of the new league. August Herrmann, chairman of the national baseball commission, when in- formed of Federal ue President Gilmore’s statement that the Sherman anti-trust law might be against .organized baseball, said: “The Federal league directors prob abiy have forgotten that we invited investigation along that line and did S0 before the present condition was thought of. We would welcome such an investigation at any time. On the other hand, we are even now contem- plating action against the Federal llag\xa along the line of conspiracy, because of their actions toward our players who are under contract. It is possible that such a course will be taken shortly. “We are not restraining Marsans and <Chase from playing, but are rtying to get these men to play. It is the Federal league who are keeping them from playing if anyone is. MOTION WILL BE MADE TO VACATE JNJUNCTION. Hal Chase Has Affidavit of Thirty Pages to Show That He Was a Free Agent. Buffalo, N, Y. July 1L—A motion will be made in supreme court here on naay for an order vacating the in- jurction granted on June 20 restraining Hal Chase. the former Chicago Ameri- can league first baseman, from playing with the Buffalo Federal league club. Notice of the motion and Chase's affidavit in answer to the complaint of the Chicago American league club were filed in the county clerk’s office today. In the affidavit, which covers thirty typewritten pages, Chase seeks to show that all kis contract relations with the Chicago team were lived up to and that he was a free agent when he sought employment with the Fed- eral league. * YANKEES MAY SECURE SERVICES OF TY COBB A Trade Might-Be Only Way to Keep the Tiger Star in Organized Ball. President Frank J. Farrell of the New York Americans could not be found in his usual haunts when looked for, which gave rise to a rumor that he had left town to negotiate an im- portant trade. For many weeks the owner of the New Yorks has been try- ing desperately to land a couple of hitters, but none of his rivals would listen to any terms even for their util- ity material. Gossip connected Mr. Farrell with an attempt to wean Ty Cobb from Hughie Jennings. Two weeks ago a million dollars would not have bought the Georgia Peach's delease from De- troit That club might as well have locked its gates as to dispose of the batting king. A change in conditions has resulted, however; from Ty's re- cent escapade in which he assaulted a butcher and broke his hand in the. process. The patrons of the Detroit team blame Ty for the present slump of the Tigers, who have won but one game in eight since their slugger put himself \ FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS IRREGULAR. Prices Moved Within a Narrow Groove Yesterday. New York, July 1.—Special influences were again effective in keeping the stock market within a narrow and ir- regular groove today. Foreign and domestic news was the usual mixture of favorable and unfavorable happen- ings, the former converging largely around crop conditions. The govern- ment report estimated this year's cot- ton area at substantially 87,000,000 acres. Condition of the growing staple is vastly better than that reported a month ago, but somewhat under the corresponding period last year. _ Several prominent railroad execu- tives were quoted as expressing con- fidence in the future, but their utter- ances were out of tune with May earnings reported by several of the larger rcads. New York Central's sys- tem reported a net decrease of $2,- 367,000, the Pennsyivania lines lost over $700,000 and Rock Island’s oper- ating _income fall off over $600,000. New York Central was the weakest of the stocks In its particular class and New Haven declin two points to within a fraction of its low record. Default of interest on vérious bond issues of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton railway, St. Louis and San Francisco railway and Rock Island company was announced, Tondon sold Americans at home and later here, disposing of several thou- sand shares, mainly United States Steel, Amalgamated Copper and Union Pacific. Another decline in exchange, fol- lowed by a speedy recovery suggested revival of gold exports. Further large cash transfers to the Pacific coast were made. I.ocal money rates were undisturbed by the shifting of loans resulting from, heavy mid-year inter- ests and dividend payments. Rallroad bonds were irregular, with sharp variations in Rock Island and related {ssues. 'Frisco refunding fours and Chicago and Eastern Illinois re- funding fours, on which interest was defaulted, advanced one and 4 1-2 points, respectively. Mexican govern- ment #s declined 2 3-4. Total bond mou, par value, amounted to $1,900,- U. 8, government bonds were un- changed on call. W TE88 5;5,: i o T ms;mism;ms sisk 100 Gon. Motors pr 100 Goodrich pr 400 Gt.

Detroit might be influenced to ordinary ‘his fiirtations with the outlaws he no doubt is in a position to dictate terms to Navin.' If Ty insists upon being traded -he probably will be disposed of, No one in baseball would go further for Cobb than Frank Farrell. The New York president has said this re- ly. Farrell, too, could . go as far as any rival either in cash or - players. He hasn’t much to offer outside of pitchers, but he could afford to give more in this line than anyone else. Chance is well fixed in box talent. There is no possibility that Cobb will stand in the way of his transfer to New York. He is fond of public acclaim, and in the metropoils he would find the adulation so dear to his southern temperament. Ty's big bat should go far toward remedying the existing evils of the Peerless Leaders hitless wonders, GAMES SCHEDULED TODAY. Americas Leagus. Boston_at Philadelphia. New Yark at Washington.

Davis, one of the local recruit pitch- ers, faced the visitors in the first game and was batted hard. Mayor did not allow Boston a hit until the sixth.

The driver is ata loss to know where to look for the source of the trouble. With the pre- valent use of the water pump in the circulating system, overheating in the majority of cases is not due to poor circulation of the water, but to fauity lubrication. “It is interesting to note that the winning car at the Indianapolis 500 mile race averaged $2.47 miles per hour travelling 500 miles, but the striking contrast of the conditions shown by the race indicate clearly the import- ance that must be paid to the lubricat- ing e&ystem of the car. “The story of lubrication is that'a fiim of oil separates the metallic sur- faces and takes the wear, but if the oil becomes too thin, it is forced out of the Dearing top readily, and the metai- lic surfaces cnme into intimate con- tact and ere rapidly worn away. It is not enough to apply lubricant indis- criminately to the various chassis varts. It must be done systematically and logically to secure the best re- <ults and insure the economical use of the lubricant.

Klem warned them and when they con- tinued their demonstration fined each, $10. This angered Manager Clark and he abused Klem in violent language.
