Yesterday was without result, the ques-
ton of selecting grounds for the Prince

the anage will allow the Athletic
Committee of the University Athletic
Club to select the place. This commit
tee consists of George Adee of Yale,
Lloyd McKim Garrison of Harvard,
Guy Richards of Columbia, c.. C, Guy
Ter of Princeton and C. F. Mathewson
of Dartmouth. This committee will meet
tomorrow and settle the matter in short
order. From present indications the New
York Clubs offer to lease Manhattan
Field will be accepted. The members
of the U. A. c.. Committee are impair
tial, n the objections raised py Hinkey
and Gable will not be considered as inn
portant enough to transfer the game to
another ground. AS Princeton has been
in favor of Manhattan Field from the
start the Tigers are jubilant today.

sylyania game, at the Trenton Fhir

New York April l4.-On Wall street,
sugar was the leading feature in the
stock market today and was the sub
ject of many rumors. 1t was stated
that the American Sugar Refining com
pany had decided to publish its annual
statement for 1898. on Monday, which
would show profits sufficient to war
rant the payment of an extra dividend
of per cent. 1t was said that a .
per cent. extra dividend would certain
y be declared, if not the full s per
cent. 1t was claimed that the sugar
interests had secured pledges of a ma
jdrity of the Senate that refiners would
receive protection to the extent Of 2
per cent and the necessity for with
holding the annual report no longer
existed. These points were all given
out before the opening of business,
consequently the sugar crowd was the
center of attraction when the bust
ness of the ddy was begun. Brokers
believed to represent an operator who
has manipulated most Of the deals in
sugar, were in the ring, and took
everything offered until the prices
touched; they had many followers
whose purchases sent the figures up

was called. Some of the traders tried to
realize profits and sent the quotations
down 10 962i. Renewed buying caused

a reaction TO &c, with final recovery

which f1Uctuaued within limit OF IS
