(Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Willimantic, ~Sept. 3.—The American Thread company team of this city have through their manager, Johu McQuiilan, arranged for two fast games to be play- ed at Recrbation Park Sunday, Sept. 5, and Monday, Sept. 6. On Sunday The Session’s Clock company of Forestville will come to this city. This team has been hittidg a fast pace this season and mong those teams that have met de- feat at their hands are the All-Insur- ance Club of Hartford, Southington, Un- ionville, Tip Notches of Beacon Falls, North Ends of Meriden and the Hart- ford Grays. These teams have been seen in action by many local fans, and the class of game to be played here Sun- day is rated fo b of high order. The | Thread Makers will send “Johnny” Coo- ney, the no hit, no run, 19 year old won- der, into the box to face the Clock Mak- ers, and they will have to be geared up mighty straight .to Dbeat this lad. The remainder of the lineup will be the same as usual, excepting possibly at third, where it may be possible that Hamel cannot play, owing to injuries recéived in the game of last Sunday. The Forest- ville manager sends his probable lineup as follows: Fitzpatrick 3b, McDermott 1f, Downes 1b, Coughlin ss, Allaire ef, Layrenson rf, Claney 2b, Cafferty or Getlersloh c. and Maynard or Oakes p. On Labor Day the Thread Makers will play the Singers of Bridgeport. This team of ballplayers established a reputa- tion as real ballplayers when they play- ed in this city on August 26th. The game was a thriller all the way through, the fine pitching of Cooney for the Thread company team and the crack outfielding by Bakos in right field for | the Singers bringing the crowd onto their i toes whenever these men needed to pro- duce the goods. The game went nine fast innings, and the locals won in the last of the ninth on a squeese play, Coo- ney rolling a neat one along first base line, Babe Adams scoring on the attempt. The score was but 1 to 0, and the fans all hand their money’s worth. The Thread Mak-rs = us> Canavan in the hox for this game. Canavan pitched here last Suni; wonning for his team and making a double and a_ triple on four trips to the platter. THe Singers will have th same lineup: Jim Mec- Carthy 3b, Hannell cf, Haverty 2b, Cas- serly ss, Mosher 4 Jack McCarthy 1b, Creevy 1If, Bakos rf,' Wilson p. Both games will begin at 3.30 o'clock (standard time) at Recreation Park. Bluffs areen't much good in the hands of a nervous man. MARKET WAS DULL. New York Sept. 3.—The approaching protracted holiday left its impress tnon the stock market today, dealing f. away to a marked extent during the forenoon when traders were most 'n- tent upon converting their prufis into cash. Bears evinced little disposition 10 ex- tend their commitments in s of these manoeuvers, developments of ‘he session, particularly the greater ease of money ‘and impending extensive goll im- ports, offering little , inducemen: to short account. Not all of the day's advices were fa- vorable, however, cables from Drazil ggested cconomic disturbances ia that v, While the weekly surveys of jdomestic trade authorities again stress- led cancellation of orders in man | branches of business. tails forfeited little of their recent ance, but yielded in prominence to | favorites of the industrial diyision These included food, chemical, /paper and metal issues, in which some gains assumed substantial dimensions and de- noted the renewed activity of pools Among the seasoned stocks, oils of the higher grade were most favored, notably Mexican, Pan-American and California ' Petrolenms, Houston Oil and Texas mpany. Coppers were more regpon- to reports of respective sales' for ort, but Steels and equipments shad- 1 with specialties at the close. Sales mounted to 65000 shares. At 7 per cent. opening rate for call ipans. running into next week and a la- | ter quotation of 6 per cent. for the same accommodation testified to the further relaxation of money. Local banks were reported to have made time loans ex- tending over the year's end at a shade {under prevailing rates. Buying of railroad bonds continued, | with firmness in Liberty issties and th } foreign group, especially United King- doms of 193. Total sales (par value) amounted to $9,500,000. Old U.

Bullish estimates of the amount of wheat available for ex- port were chiefly responsible for the show of strength. The close was unset- tled, 1-4 to 1 3-4c net higher, with De- cember 241 1-4 to 241 1-3 and March 23 1-4 to 23 3-4. Corn finished 1-4 to 1-4c down; oats off 1-¢ to 3-4c and| provisions unchanged to a rise of lc. Buying orders in the wheat found the pit bare of sellers un ues had jumped more than six bushel for the Oecember delivery. while, attention focussed on sta‘ements from a leading authority indicating that the surplus supply in the United States 110,000,000 bushkels less than last season. Advices that rain was urgent- ly needed in Argentina counted also as a decided bullish factor. Evidence. how- ever, that as a result of the rapid ad- vance, foreigners had temporarily with- drawn from the market led to a geac- tion in the later dealings, Corn sympathized with the advance in ‘wheat, but lacked friends when the Wheat market suffered a setback. Oats ‘were governed by the action of corn. Provisions averaged higher on ac- count of packers buying. It was said good export business had been put through. @ CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
