New York, Dec. 16.—Watchful wait- ing characterized the actions of the National league magnates here today. With the possibility of peace between organized and independent interests but 24 hours away, the senior league club owners passed the time with in- formal conferences and perfunctory duties until the American league peace committee could reach here from Chi- cago and the various organizations meet in formal manner. Peace Committees. While the American league and the minor associations announced the per- sonnel of their committees for the peace conference, neither the National league nor the Federal league had se- lected their representatives late this evening. President Tener of the Na- tional league stated that his organ- ization would go into session at 10.30 o'clock tomorrow morning, at which time either a committee or the league as a whole would be delegates to at- tend the conference. Uncertainty ex- isted among both the National and Federal league officials regarding the size and the powers delegated to the committee appointed té6 act for the American league. Edward Barrow, president 6f the International league, and John H. Farrell, secretary of the National Association o. Minor Leagues, will represent the latter organization at the meeting to be held here early tomeorrow afternoon. While there was much talk regard- ing the possible outcome of the peace conference none of the magnates of either organized or independent in- terests would venture to predict the ultimate outcome of the conference, the time necessary to consummate the much-desired peace agreement. Would Restore Contract Jumpers. President Tener said that he was in favor of restorinz all contract jump- ers from organized ranks to good standing and by inference made it ap- pear that such an understanding had been reached between the National and Federal leagu= officials at the re- cent secret meeting in this city. He said: “I have always believed and I now believe that no ball player should be punished unless he has made him- self morally unfit or_a real detriment to ball playing. I, for one, certainly will not vote to punish a contract breaker just because peace is to be established. It would be well for those judging him to think of the conditions and the temptatoins. Some of us can remember back to the Brotherhood the hotel where the National league magnats gathered but from nearby quarters kept in touch with the sit- uation. PUTNAM QUINTETTE JUMPS INTO FIRST PLACE. Defeated Killingly High for First Time in Two Years. (Special to The Bulletin.) Putnam, Dec. 16.—For the first time in two years, Putnam High and Kil- lingly met on the local gym floor. Putnam managed to defeat the Dan- ielson five by the score of 26 to 16. This was one of the league games in the Quinebaug Valley league and by winning the Putnam boys go into first place. Owing to the strict interpreta- tion of the new rules, there were 60 fouls called, which distracted interest from the game. At the end of the first period Putnam led, 11 to 10, and in the second half they obtained a lead that the visitors were unable to overcome. Lowe was the mainstay of the Putnam team, while Reddy played the best game for the visitors. PUTNAM. KILLINGLY. Reddy Elliott Gallup Loneardo ... Reeves Right Guard. Dirada 4 R Norton e uard.

JEWETT CITY FIVE TOO STRONG FOR DANIELSON. Borough Boys Administer an Over- whelming Defeat—Score 40 to 18. (Special to The Bulletin.) Jewett City, Dec. 16—Jewett City kept up their fine work Thursda evening when they defeated the Dan- ielson five by an overwhelming score of 40 to 18. It was a runaway from the start, Danielson having but little show. Blake and L'Heureux were the stars.

Caused by Acute Phase of Situation Between Washington and Vienna. New York, Dec. 16.—The more acute phase of the situation between Wash- inzston and Vienna was popularly ad- vanced as the principal reason for to- day’s heavy market. The flurry cre- ated yesterday by the extensive sal and resultant declines in Anglo- French bonds seemed to have run natural course. That issue was onl; moderately active today, with mini- mum quotations of 94 3-$ and 94 1-8, respectively, for regular and future offerings. Another break in exchange on Ger- many and Aust-ia accentuated the tense diplomatic relations. Marks feil to 76 and Kronen, or bills on Vienna, fell to 13 1-4, both new minimums, but marks recovered substantially later. Sterling was barely steady and froncs were strong. Dealings in stocks once more savor- ed strongly of professionalism and were confined in undue proportion to specialties. Mercantile Marine pre- ferred, Texas Company and Westing- house comprised the most prominent features, several of these far out- stripping U. S. Steel, the usual leader in_point of activit: Gians in_ these industrials and others like New York Air Brake, Cru- cible Steel, United Fruit, Consolidated Gas, U. S. Industria Alcohol, National Biscuit and the department store is- sues reached very decided proportions in the forenoon, but were largely, if not entirely dissipated before the close. General Motors common and preferred were consistently heavy, the former dropping 22 1-2 to 510 1-2 U. S. Steel reflected selling of the same character recently noted, making an extreme decline of 1 1-8 at Bethlehem Steel remained unquoted and coppers were a negligible factor. Prices were at lowest levels at the close, rails osing one to two points on enarged offerings of the more rep- resentative shares. Total sales amount- ed to 665,000 shares, Further selling of the international list was the only external evidence of the British chancellor’s plan to mo- bilize American securities. The Bank of England reported a slizht decrease in its liability reserve and infinitesimal gain in gold. Bonds were heavy, with numerous “future” transactions.

Well known football officials with the coaches | met Tuesdaday night at Philadel- | phia anq discussed their experiences of | the past season in games In various | sections of the country. Robert Max- | well of Swathmore presided. | It was pointed out that the rule pro- | viding that the only player eligible to be within the one-yard zone behind : the line of scrimmage is the one who | first receives the ball from the center | was frequently violated in the run | from fake-kick formation. i Among the plays on which a ruling will be asked is whether a safety or a touchback should be called when a player intercepts a forward pass be- hind his legal line and, under the im- pression he has made an error, throw the ball across the line back into play. A more direct ruling will be asked when an opposing center starts for- ward with the referee’s whistle on the kick-off and collides with the players kicking the ball. Maxwell told of a play at a game in West Virginia in which a small end climbed on the back of a tackle behind his own goal lina to catch a forward pass and as soon WINES and LIQUORS AFTER A GOOD DINNER while enjoying your cigars and coffee ot Benedictine good cordial a glass creme-de- menthe, or any contributes to so- ciability as well as to digestion.
