New York, Feb. 3.—The market set- tled down to its usual routine today with further general recoveries from the acute depression of the early week. Trading was_frequently apathetic, but the leaders—United ‘States Steel, Bald- win Locomotive, Crucible Seel and Mexican Petroleum—more ~or less in order named, were again to the fore, Baldwin losing ground at the end. Rails were in better favor, with av- erage galns of one to almost two points, but Erie was the conspicuous feature, making additional recovery from its severe decline.

(Special to The Bulletin) Westerly, Feb. 3.—In defeating the Baltic basketball quintette here to- night in A. O. H. hall by the score of 44 to 13, the Westerly five have reason to rejoice over two things, the victory and the unusually small num- ber of repairs needed after the game. One of the Westerly boys said that the’ team received fewer injuries than when they played the Norwich team a week ago. In losing to the Westerly team the high standing of the Baltic players was greatly shattered. They put up a stiff battle but the superior shoot- ing of the home team was too much and a large score resulted. The aud Score, | ence was very enthusiastic and quick- ly noticed the clean playing of hoth teams. - This contrast to the playing of the Norwich team was the topic of discussion among local enthusiasts who all agreed that the Baltic five are much better losers than the Norwich boys.

Mike Gibbons will box before the Capital City Boxing club of St. Paul exclusively for one year. Gibbons is to receive $20,000 for his services—$10,000 for each match, and while he may meet boxers in oth- er cities, the St. Paul boxer cannot engage in any contest without ob- taining permission from the Capital City club. Jack Dillon, George Chip and Les Darcy are the three boxers named ir the contract by the St. Paul club of- ficials and, should Darcy find it im- possible to make the trip to Ameri« ca, the club has the right to select any other formidable opponent and the names of Jaff Smith and Ted Lewis are mentioned. In signing the iron-clad contract with the St. Paul club officials, Giibbons forfeited n¥ matchmaking rights for 1916. He must meet any three men named by the club, but in protecting himself, Gibbons inserted a clause stipulating that each championship match must be at a weight not greater than 160 pounds at 3 p. m. on the day of the contest, and that at least two months Intervene between the contests. In the event of a decisive defeat for Gibbons in the first or second bout, or in a contest held elsewhere with the approval of the Capital City A. C, the club officials have the privi- lege of cancelling the contract. In signing up the St. Paul ring warrior, Louis F. Dow, succeeded in bringing to the twin cities the three most im- portant ring contests of the year in middleweight circles. Continual of- fers from many club matchmakel who are desirous of arranging a Gib- bons-Dillon or a_Gibbons-Chip fight prompted the St. Paul officials to pre- sent their $30,000 proposal to Gibbons. The offer was originally broached three days ago, but at first Gibbons was not impressed and he refused to give an answer until he had weighed the matter carefully. While riding to Superior in company with Louis F. Dow to watch the Dillon-Miske fight, Gibbons said he would be prepared to sign or turn down the offer and at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon the papers were formally drawn up. YALE DAILY NEWS ASKS FOR REINSTATEMENT Of Five Eligible Athletes—Harvard Crimson Also Favors It. For the first time in Yale history the Yale Daily News has made a de- mand upon the athletic committee of the University to reinstate LeGore, Milburn, Pumpelly, Rhett and Easton, the five athletes who were barred last September on a summer baseball technicality. It quotes the Harvard Crimson as voicing the same demand. The News insists that the universi- ty, not the men, should be blamed in this connection a story was told on good authority. It asserted that, at the hearing last week before the Yale, Harward and Princeton eligibility committee, Harry LeGore made the statement that he had laid his plans for last summer, and was to take an extended trip with relatives when of- ficlals of the basebal lassociation came to him and urged him to join the squad of ball players at Quoque, Long Is- land. He told them that he had planned to take an all-summer trip and prac- tically declined to go to Quoque when George B. Case, graduaté baseball ad- visor, added his rcquest to tkat of the other officials.

Hughey’s One Grief. Hugh Jennings admits that one.sor- row of his life i{s that he can’t get a good pitching staff. “Clark Griffith and I were talking about it,” said Hugh. ‘Put a Wash- ington uniform on any sort of a pitcher,” I told him, and he becomes a star in the box. “‘Yes,’ he replied, ‘and put a De- troit uniform on a 0 Datter and he hits .300.’ s true. Do you know that I passed up a chance to get Nap Rucker for about $500? I did. When Cobb came to us he begged me to get Rucker, but I wouldn’t listéen to him. “I also passed up Walter Johnson.

Another bomb crashed through the roof of a house and in- stantly killed flve persons. The flames from the blazing warehouses lit up the whole harbor with a red glow, against which stood out the white sails of the coasting ships, fleeing under all can- vas. Fast aeroplanes rose in pursuit of the Zeppelin, while British, French, Italian and Russian sailors operated a fireboat at a wharf and poured tor- rents of water on the fire. Generals Sarrail, Mahon and Moschopoulos, with the prefect and the mayor, organized salvage parties, but practically nothing could be saved in the warehouses. The fire was prevented from spreading to surrounding buildings. The bombs thrown from the Zeppelin weighed about 100 pounds and were dropped from a height estimated at 2,000 feet. No Such Country.
