BIG LEAGUE READY TO LIFT ‘EM National’s New Regulation of Into Effect at the End of 21 Players to a Squad Goes This Week—25 Players Limit in the American Circuit—National League Will Let Go About 80 Players. ‘With ‘the close of the Dpresent week #the clubs of the National league will enter that period of the playing season wherein the squad is restricted to 21 players. This rule, adopted at the an- nual meeting of the senior league on Dec. 8, and reaffirmed at the schedule meeting on Feb. 9, will have a decided ‘bearing on the pennant race this sum~ mer. Under the new regulation the total registration of the eight clubs will be 168 players between May 1 and Sept. 1. At the beginning of the season the roster of the league showed 254 play- ers on contract, so that more than 80 players will have to be dropped before next Saturday to conform to the new rule. The average at the opening of the 1915 pennant race was 31 players per club. In order to be within the limit by May 1 each club will have to dis- pense Wwith the services of approxi- mately 10 players. Many of these clubs have already anticipated the effect of the rule and began dropping players before the close of the spring training trips. A few were given unconditional releases, but the majority were sent back to the minor league clubs for fur- ther development. In this connection it is the opinion of big league baseball magnates that the present crop of recruits has not been up to the standard of past years. In a few isolated cases green players taken to the training camps have shown sufficient promise to warrant additional coaching and attention, but the general average has not encour- aged the idea that there were any Ty Cobbs, Walter Johnsons or Jake Dau- berts in the camps. The American league clubs will have a four-player advantage over those of the ational league, but the junior league rule permitting an enrollment of 25 players per club was not rescind- ed to conform with the new regulation in vogue in the National. As a result there will be less cur- tailing of lists in Ban Johnson’s cir- cuit, - for the eight American league clubs had but 242 players under con- tract at the opening of the baseball year. This gave an average of 30 conform with the league code In this respect. CASH FOR‘EASTERN ASSOCIATION Reported Organized Ball Imtends To Help the Mangled Circuit. From Boston comes word that or- ganized bail intends to financiailly back the Eastern association in its present sad predicament. It is stated that a pool of $8,000 is being made up to help the league and that President J. J. Lannin of the Bostop Americans has ‘been asked to chip in. The whole bus- iness sounds fishy, but there are some who think there is a great deal of truth in it. No one is saying what the $8,000 is for. The league is surely in a bad way, but there are other things it needs besides dollars. The rem- edy is not in financial help, as has been stated before. If the league was broke there is reason to suppose Mor- ton F. Plant, millionaire owner of the New London club would throw in $8,000 worth of dimes and so keep the league from beggin; As far as known, Jim O'Rourke, president of the Eastern association, has not started. to pass the hat. He is looking for people to take franchises, 80 as to complete a six-club circuit. If the baseball powers higher than class B are really as interested in minor league baseball as the Boston yarn indicates, they changed their ways. Of course, organized baseball in gen- eral is greatly interested in the de- velopments up this way, and it must be expected to put up a hot battle to the finish for such ci field, Hartford and franchise holders have been thrown out. It would never do, according to the theory of the game, to allow an insurrection in minor league circles to be successful and as a lesson and warning to other rubbering minors, organized ball would probaly want to land on the both feet. ‘Springfield. have greatly ies as Spring- ew Haven, whose players per club and necessitated the dropping of but 40 players in order to tims in this section with Organized ball will go after Hartford and New Haven FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET SHOWS REVERSAL. Reading and United States Steel Were Leaders in_the Decline. New York, April 26.—For the great- er part of today’s market session, stocks showed consistent strength, particularly coppers and other indus- trials, as well as numerous equipment and miscellaneous specialties. In the final hour practically all this advan- tige was lost, the market declining abruptly under lead of Reading and United States Steel. No specific news accompanied the sharp reversal, but rumor was just as busy with-adverse gossip ‘at that time as it had been earlier with a host of favorable “tips.” Selling of Reading towards the end seemed to emanate from substantial sources, while the extensive offerings of Steel pointed to assistance from the short interest. The gquarterly statement of the United States Steel corporation is to be issued after the close of to- morrow’s market and Chairman Gary has already intimated that the exhibit will not be especially encouraging. Prior to the late selling, new high prices had been made by some of the less prominent metal shares, their fur- ther gains being in recognition of an- other advance in the asking price of refined copper by producers, Union Pacific, Great Northern, St. Paul and other investment issues in the rail- ‘way division also were higher by 1 to 1 1-2 points. In fact the only laggards were Missourli Pacific and Missouri, Kansas and Texas Common and Pre- ferred. Affairs of the latter road are approaching a crisis in connection with the plan to extend the $19,000,000 of notes falling due May Ist. Week-end developments were main- ly favorable to the constructive forces recently at work, including as they did the optimistic views of high finan- cial and industrial authorities, togeth- er with the detailed foreign trade statement and some abatement of Eu- ropean selling. Almost the only off- setting features were the sexeral rail- road reports submitted. Atchison showed a net loss for March of $223,- 000 and Chicago and Northwestern fell behind by $458,000. . Rates for foreign exchange indicated mixed conditions abroad, bills on Lon- don showing greater firmness, while remittances to Italy were weaker. Total sales of stocks amounted to 770,000 shares. Bonds were irregular, the only strong features being copper convertible is- sues, which rose buoyantly. Total sales, par value, were $4,523,000. U. S. bonds were unchanged on call. STOCKS.

It was stated at the start, though, because Messrs. Carey and Clarkin of the Springfleld and Hartford clubs hold leases on the only available equipped ball plants in Springfleld and Hartford, and Mr. Cameron owns his own plant in New Haven. Such a condition blocks organized ball from helping the Eastern associa- tion any in thoe three cities this sea- son because it is too late to scout around for parks and get them equip- ped. But it can be expetted that the attempt to get grounds for next year will be made. It will be made, too, assuming the three club owners are allowed no chance to return to the fold. The Bridgeport meeting of the [Eastern association will undoubtedly consider the case and franchises of the Springfleld, Hartforq and New Haven clubs may be awarded to fellows to use them in 1916 and may be to use those franchises in some jay towns this season if the association thinks it can make any kind of a palying show. This means as far as organized ball is concerned there will be nothing do- ing wuntil next year at the earliest. But supposing William E. Carey, with his fine ball plant, sees himself ostra- cised and should not want to quit base- ball? The Federal league is always willing to talk business with those who will assist them in planting a minor league in New HEngland and it may be that there would be nothing else for Carey to do but to get in line with the independents. Such a condition might also confront Clarkin in Hartford and Cemeron in New Ha- ven. If all three of those fellows fall in line with the Federal league project there will be some fun in this section in 1916. There may be two ball clubs where there is none now and a hot fight to the finish, too. The situation is a rather peculiar one just now, but it is liable to have sharp and quick turns from now on.

The visitors bunched all their hits in tkree innings, but Alexander fanned ten batsmen. Strand was hit hard and both of Boston's errors were costly. In the eighth inning, Gowdy’s throw to catch Cravath off third struck the runner and two men scored. Boston claimed Cravath interfered with the throw.

I had suffered for a long time from a rash which covered my back, arms and chest. I could not sleep at night on account of the terrible. itching, and often would scratch myself until blood would flow. I had tried several aiffer- ent treatments, but received only tem- porary rellef from them. I was told about the good E. L. M. Ointment was doing, and I am glad that I gave it a trial, as I got relief at once,_and in a short time the disease was healed up nicely. I will say that E. L. M. s truly a wonderful preparatjon.
