The Colo- nials are composed chiefly of N. F. A. alumni and their lineup contains some There is no doubt but what they will put up a good game, and it is well known to local fans that the N. F. A. has pro- duced some good ball players. The Yantic team has been playing a good game and will have a strong lineup on hand to meet them. Bowers, a new pitcher, will be in the box for Yantic and Jack Meehan will do the backstop worla Bowers is an ex-league pitcher and is in great form for the game. Jack Meehan is well known to local fans and has been doing good work behind the bat, very few runners stealing bases on him. There havé been several good games played at Depot field this season, and the man- agement guarantees this one torbe no exception, Jewett City at Putnam. Putnam, July 26—Jewett City is sending a baseball team here Sunday. the 28th, that is expected to do thin, to the Putnam team. Jewett City, it is understood, will have an American league battery, while Girard wiil be on the mound for the home team. This means big baseball, but it is also taken here that the Putnam team, fastest in this part of New FEngland, will be able to put it on to the it ors. notwithstanding their big league support, which isn't worrying Putnam even a little bit Fitchville 2.

New York, July 26.—The stock mar- ket was hesitant and irregular in the first half of today’s superficial session, presumably on the failure of sensa- tional war rumors current yesterday to materialize, ibut prices hardened later, a few leaders making mix:mum quotations for the current movement. The improvement of the afternoon was concurrent with the more encour- aging views entertained by banking interests regarding the administra- tion's taxation policy and the easier tone of call money, which was more abundant. J ’ Pools were conspicuous in numer- ous minor specialties, but steels, al- lied equipments, coppers and some of the tobaccos featured the occasion: intervals of activity, maimy on short covering. U. S. Steel was easily in the fore- front, furnishing about 40 per cent. of the offerings and attaining the high- est price of the week at 108 3-8, clos- ing half a point under its best. Bethlehem, Crucible and Lackawan- na Steels, Republic Iron and Colorado |¥uel gained one to two points, Utah Copper and oils one to 1 1-2 and Gen- eral Cigars was prominent for its sud- den' rise of four points. Rails were extremely listless, Unlon Pacific, as an instance, remaining al- together unquoted until at the end, while Reading slowly regained i:s one point reversal. Sales were 335,000 shares.
