Work Started on a Four Lap Track—Will be Ready by Fall— Prospects Bright for Successful Track Team—Base- ball Nine Plays at State Hospital Today. A cinder running track which has ‘been long contemplated at the Aca- demy will undoubtedly be ready for use next fall as a local contractor started the work of constructing one Tuesday. The track will be four laps to a mile and when completed will be a top notcher. This addition to the athletic fleld at the Academy has long been desired by the students and as there is at present in the school brii- liant material for a track team, it is bound to become a successful sport at the institution. The track will ‘bound the campus and extend over in the rear of Principal Henry A, Tir- rell’s residence. The Academy will send a good siz delegation to the State Hospital this afternoon to witness the ball game be- tween the State Hospital team and the Academy. It is probable that Brickley and Hourigan will oppose each bther. The Academy boys had a Rtmol)mctloa Tuesday afternoon in spite the hot weather and have hopes of returning home with the hos- pital scalp. EVERS MAY RETURN TO THE GAME MAY 11 Braves’ Captain Not in Nearly as Bad Condition as Has Been Generally Understood. New York, April 27.—According to a statement given out today by Her- man Nickerson, secretary of the Bos- ton Nationals, John Evers, captain and star second baseman of the world’s champions, is not in nearly as bad condition as has been generally un- derstood and Manager Stallings ex- pects him to return to the club by May 11, when the western clubs make their first invasion of the east. According to Nickerson, President Gaffney, of Boston, became alarmed at the reports about Evers and sent his own physician, Dr. J. R. Herrity of this city, to Troy, to make a thor- ough examination of the star's ankle, and bring back a truthful report. Dr, Herrity reported that the extent of Evers’ injury had been greatly ex- aggerated. The doctor said that only a small bone had been moved out of place and it was now back in position. ‘Evers already is walking, though he is not putting any appreciable weight on the ankle, CLAIM OF NEW LONDON TEAM ALLOWED Against Southern League in Case of Hokg Warner, Auburn, N. Y., April 27—The claim of the New London, Conn. baseball club against the Southern Michigan league in the case of Hoke Warner has been allowed, it was announced today by the national board of arbi- tration of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues. West Ends W The West Ends defeated the local Commercial school Tuesday afternoon at the fair grounds by the score of 26 to 19. The score up to the eighth in- ning was 21 to 7, in favor of the West Ends, but owing to a sudden soreness of Pitcher Bendett's arm, due to hav- ing been hit in the early part of the game, the Commercial school was able to gather 12 runs. The West Ends, by terrific batting, forced three Commer- cial school pitchers, namely Spicer, McMann and Poppenan, out of the #d | box. Spicer, although it was contrary to the rules of the game, returned to the slab. Still the terrific batting did not cease. The features of the game were two home runs, by Schwarz and Weinstein.

YALE AND WEST POINT NINES LOOK GOOD Both Have Prospects of Obtaining the Collegiate Title. Two college baseball teams which stand out above all others in this section of the country are Yale and ‘West Point. Picking the winner in the college baseball season is about as difficult a task as there is in the field of sports, but at this stage of the game these two nines have given convincing evidences of strength. “Pie” Way, the Eli twirler, appears to be one of the best slabmen in years. After the game between the Giants FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL N!,ARKET CLOSED ACTIJVE. Extensive . Selling Movement Wiped Out a Good Part of the Early Gains. New York, April 27.—Such activity as was manifested by today’s stock market was almost wholly at the ex- pense of quoted values. _Trading in the first half of the se: sion was the lightest of any day for several weeks, but this condition was reversed in the last hour when an ex- tensive selling movement wiped out a good part of the early gains and caused some net losses. The selling was preceded by reports that Italy had recalled her diplomatic representatives at the leading Euro- Pean capitals, including Berlin, This was regarded as a new and more men- acing phase of the foreign situation and coming upon yesterday’s war news excited general apprehension. There ‘were some recoveries from lowest prices, notably in United States Steel, but the closing was distinctively irreg- ular. Steel was easily the chief fea- ture of the session, reassuming its Dlace as leader. It registered a Small decline at the outset, but grew steadily stronger with the progress of the ses- sion and was at its best when the late liquidation checked its course. The movement in Steel was watched with unusual interest, because it was expected to give a possible hint of the company’s earnings for the first quar- ter of the year. This statement, which was not issued until after the market's close, showed earnings of $12,457,809, an_increase of $1,524,639 over the pre- ceding quarter. The deficit after pay- ment of the preferred dividend was $5,389,861, against $5,606,283 reported three months ago. Coppers were less prominent than heretofors, despite a higher quotation for the metal, based on large foreign orders. Investment issues in the rail- way division evinced a firmer tendency until overtaken by concerted liquida- tion. Local tractions made some im- provement on further readjustment of capital requirements, but other divi- sions of the list, including the srecula- tive specialties, lacked especial fea- tures. The Erie road reported a March net gain of $183,000 and Missousi, Kansas and Texas, whose affairs are in pro- gggu of reorganization, gained $375,- Total sales of stocks amounted to 673,000 shares. Bonds were fairly firm on a moderate amount of dealings. Total sales, par value, aggregated $5,584,000. {United States bonds were unchanged on call, Sales. 5100 Alasks Gold M 600 Allis Chalmers pr 29600 Amal Copper 400 Am. Ag Chem 12800 Am.

Way has been showing great headwork, and always does a little better in the pinches than his average. Coach Quinby, who is handling the Blue team, has developed a smoothly working infield, and the nine is above the average in baseball sense; but it is Way to whom the string of victories is most attributed. Neylgnd is the pitcher who is of- ficlating for the Military Academy. Without a doubt he is entitled to rating as one of the headiest twirlers ever seen in the college ranks. He made a remarkable record last year, and has mot lost a game to date. in spite of the fact that Harvard, Lehigh, and other strong nines have visited the reservation. The West Point team is principally recruited from the picked athletic nucleus which has been the basis for Army strength in foot- ball and other sports. Merrilat, the end on the football team, whose hand- ling of the forward passes was a big factor in the rout of the Navy last fall, is officiating at center field; Hobbs, right field; Britton, first base; Oliphant, catcher; and Coffing, second base, are all football veterans, while Captain Prichard, quarterback on the eleven, is playing a fast game at shortstop. Army men say that the grenitest all-around athletic ability ever represented at the Military Academy is enrolled this year. GAMES SCHEDULED TODAY. National Leagus. Boston at New York.

PITCHERS DON'T WORK HARD ENOUGH. Says Harry Tuthill, Trainer of Detroit Baseball Club, Pitchers don’t work hard enough, says Harry Tuthill, trainer of the De- troit baseball club and the Army foot- ball team. They are the most luxuri- ous class in the world, he opines. He says they would do muoh better work if forced to pitch {wice a week and play three other days in the out- field. He declares only one day’'s work a week makes great pitchers get slow and heavy. ‘Then ‘they are not able to perform in their best manner when called on,” he continues. “Some of the greater performances in history are credited to pitchers who toiled at least every oth- er day and sometimes had to pitch ev- ery day for long stretches. “When a manager gets hold of a 0od hitter it would do no harm to ave him work in right fleld, where there is little to do. Outfielding is not arduous work as a rule. Sometimes an outfielder will go through a whole game without having touched the ball with his_hands. - “Pitchers of today have a bad habit of thinking that there is something the matter with them. It is all im- agination. Some of them stall through a whole season by thinking up differ- ent aches and pains. Whenever they are called on to pitch there is some- thing the matter with them. I tell you they are to much pampered.’ MELVIN W. SHEPPARD SUES FOR $25,000 Because of Injuries Sustained by a Fall at Madison Square Garden. New York, April 27—Melvin W.

The greatest soccer football game of the season will be played at Annext field next Sunday afternoon, New Haven, when the New Haven and New Britain teams will face each other in the final round for the Budd challenge cup.

Al Reich, whe is matched to box Coffey at Madison Square Garden on the night of May 5, will be trained for this battle by some of the best tutors in New York. Maxey Blumenthal, Reich’s manager, is figuring on coming out a loser on the fight from financial standpoint, because of the expense that he is going to get Reich right for the battle. Willie Lewis is busy with the big fellow now, grooming him for the contest. Judging from the results of some of the contests at the Penn Relay Carni- val, this is going to be a banner year for many of the college athletes. When Ted,Meredith can step a quarter mile in 48 2-5 seconds, at this time of the year, and Alma Richards of Cornell can clear 6 feet, 5 inches in the high jump, not to mention some of the work of the relay teams more than one rec- ord is sure of a smashing when the big intercollegiates roll around. The English professional association football season closed Saturday and according to late reports from London the financial staths of the players will be readjusted before schedule play is resumed. All contracts between clubs and players will expire May 1 and the 1915-19168 contracts will show the ef- fect of the war on English sports. The soccer inagnates are drawing up a new form of agreement between player and club showing sharp re- ductions in salaries all along the line. The maximum wage of about $20 a week will be cut to $15 and $10 ac- cording to the playing ability of the men signed. In addition there will be no summer allowance except in the cases of a fwe stars of the English . soccer world. McCANN IS DUCKING EXPENSIVE POSITION Sends Letters to All Players Held by New London. Ball players signed up for the New London- team by H: Eugene McCann. are wondering just what Gene means in letters recently sent out to them. For Gene has “taken his pen in hand” to tell them he will see that they are taken care of even though there is to be no Eastern Association and then to tell them that if he doesn’t place them by April 25, or if they cannot place themselves, he will give them uncon- ditional releases. Naturally enough they are all crossed up 4dnd are won- dering how far that “I will see that you are taken care of” stuff goes in ({;17-? they do not land anything in base- all. Mr. McCann comes out with the bland announcement that the unfortu- nate conditions in the Eastern Asso- ciation has made it impossible for New London to maintain a team this year. Of course he says also that this un- fortunate condition of affairs is through no fault of the New London, club. Her evidently overlooks the fact that he and his paymaster did as much to put the league on the blink for good as any other one source did. Probably he figures that cince the league presi- dent took the stand that a man with millions could do no wrong, all the fault must lie elsewhere. Anyway that's the way Mr, McCann puts things to the players. He says hé hopes to place them and asks if they have anything in sight for themselves. In one sentence he promises they will be taken care of and that he will see to it. In another he tells them they will get unconditional releases if they are not placed somewhere by April 25.

A KIDNEY REMEDY ADVERTISEMENT BROUGHT GREAT HAPPINESS. I take pleasure in stating that I have used Dr. Kilmer's ' Swamp-Root, that I was greatly benefited by the same and have used it in my family. I had a son, when quite young he suffered from bladder or kidney affliction. I called in my physician, he attended him but did him no good.

I have such strong faith in Swamp-Root that I have never done without it in my fam- ily since the wonderful cure of my son as well as myself.
