strongest in the state and has In sea-

of 80 to II. On last Wednesday night
this same team was defeated by Yale
by the score Of 40 to IL. If scores can
be used as a basis the game this even
ing should be one of the hardest and
one of the closest that the Yale team
will have to play during the present
season. The Yale men are in splendid
shape and are practicing faithfully In
order to perfect their team work, which
as has been demonstrated is one of the
most important factors of a winning
team. The next game for the univer-
sity team will be on Saturday night OF
this week, with the team from the
Washington Heights Y. M. C. A. team
of New York city.
The Yale lineup for to-nights game

The Grand.

One of the largest and most enthu-
siastic audiences which the Grand
opera house has ever held gathered last
evening to witness the championship
wrestling match between Roeber Of
New York and Atlas of Boston. Roeber
holds the undisputed title of champion
Greco Roman wrestler of the world and
is competent and willing to uphold his
title against all Corners. 1t took him
seventeen and one-quarter minutes to
defeat Atlas last evening in one of the
prettiest and most scientific wrestling
matches ever seen in this state. The
match was to finish, no holds being
barred. Roeber gained the victory by
getting the strangle hold, changing 1t
Immediately for the back hammer hold,
which did the business.
Previous to the final contest Pardello,
ROBBERS wrestling partner, had bout
with Faust of Bridgeport, which re-
suited Nm a tie. Friday night Roeber
will meet a Turk who is said to be equal
in prowess to Yousef, the Terrible Turk,
who was drowned in the Bourgogne
disaster In addition to the wrestling
bouts which occur every afternoon and
evening there is an excellent vaudeville
performance. Popular prices prevail.

the many spectacular dances, is a
beautiful feature, ar more elaborate an

equilibrist, is a decided hit performing
many seemingly impossible feats Miss
Emma Carus, the baritone, takes in all
the house, first winning the boxes with
her refined ballads and then making
slaves of the gallery boys with her

true artist. Millett, Thorne and COM

Paine. Murphy & Cos stock Letter

By Leased Wire to Paine, Murphy & Go.
 Birmingham, March 30.-Stock was vari- able today; it was weak at the start under the influence of fear of international col lision over the Samoan occurrence and the expectation of higher money. Te call rate did make record. The banks marked up the counter loans at the legal rate, but later in the day these influences were off, set by reassuring advices from Washing ton concerning Samoa The Flower stocks were among those which showed strength. Manhattan advanced about points on buy ing said to be Of the best character, and Metropolitan was strong after an early de- cline of 1 point. Rumors were current Of a close cooperation of the two transit systems. A. M. T. was weak early, but rallied later The railroad lists was a lit- tie weak The market closed excited and nervous, but with a strong undertone

MARKET FINALLY STEADY

New York, March 30.-Cotton speculation was very slack today. local traders having already evened up their accounts in antici- patton of the closing of the New York ex- change tomorrow.
 Local covering and liquidation upon about even terms were features of today's trad ing. There was very little outside interest either one way or the other after some foreign buying orders had been filled. These orders made their appearance on the opening call and with better English cables than had been looked for and light receipts they caused a steady opening at an ad- vance of 1q2 points.
 Later the market ruled easier and gener- ally quiet. From the highest time the low est prices of today the range was a mat ter of points on the more active positions. Weather news while somewhat conflicting, made a bullish impression on the market. The official map indicated frosts for parts of the Atlantic localities, but elsewhere conditions were, for the most part, favor- able and planters were reported to be push ing field work energetically.
 The market was finally steady 1@5 points net higher.
