reflect much credit on them as well as
upon their teacher, Miss Langdon. The
progr anime of exercises consisted of
recitations, singing and the reading of
composition, but Of those admitted three
were so good that it was impossible to
say which was the best, and conse-
quently three prizes were given, the
winners being Hazel Morris. Lulu Kirby
and John Meara. The compositions
were upon the subject, Buds, Trees
and Flowers" and all were remarkably
we'll written for such young pupils, the
prize winners being only about eight

EQUITABLE CASE APPEALED.

Application for Leave to Go to the
Court of Appeals Granted
New York, May 5.--William B. Horn
blower appearing for the Equitable Life
Assurance society, asked the appellate
court in Brooklyn this morning for per-
mission to take the case of Emil Greeff
against the Equitable to the court of
appeals. In making the motion he said:
In view of the Importance and magni-
tude of the interests involved, and of
the fact that the decision is made by a
divided court, we presume that the
court will regard our application for
leave to go-to the court or appeals as
proper one to be granted" The appli-
cation was granted and the case will go
to the court of appeals.
The application is the result of the
decision of the court on Tuesday sus-
tanning the contention of Greeff that as
a shareholder he was entitled to S707S.-
3S, his share of the Equitable surplus,
which amounts to $1,000, 900. The suit
was brought on a demurrer from the
supreme court of Manhattan, where
Justice DAILY denied Greeff's claim, to
the appellate division of the Second jul
dicial district. The opinion handed
down Tuesday was written by Justice
Woodward, Justices Cullen and Hatch
Justice Goodrich dissenting
and Justice Bartlett not voting

BASEBALL NOTES.
Schedule Committee Fails to Agree on
a Schedule

Schedule Committee Fails to Agree on
Schedule.
The committee recently appointed by
the State Baseball league, composed Of
James Fl. O'Rourke, Sturges Whitlock
OF Derby and George Bindloss of New
London, met at the office of Attorney
ORourke in Bridgeport yesterday after
noon and looked over schedule for the
season arranged by F. l.. Beardsley Of
Derby. The schedule was gone over
carefully, but it failed to meet the APP
prevail of the committee. After some
discussion it was agreed that new
schedule be arranged, or that the pres
ent. one be rearranged so that all the
clubs in the league have an equal num-
Der Of Saturday games. Mr.. Reardsley
was instructed to so rearrange the
schedule as to meet the views of the
committee. The new schedule will be
completed in time to be presented to
the meeting of the state league which
will be held in the Hotel Garde, this
city, on the 18th inst.
There appears to be peck of trouble
regarding the status of Terry Rogers,
and where he is going to play Two
managers claim him and it looks as If
one of them would have to give way
for the other, or Rogers will not have
a chance to play ball in any of the
clubs in the state. Thomas l.. Reilly
of Meriden manager of the New Haven
team, claims that Rogers agreed to
play on his team, but that when he
sent him contract Rogers refused to
sign it, and he wants to know why
Jack Rose, manager of the Norwich
team, says that Reilly is much mistak-
en- If he says that Rogers agreed to play
on the New Haven team. Rose claims
Rogers for his club. In the meantime
the officers of the league will have
something to say about it all.
Thomas L. Reilly, supervisor of UNI
pires of the State Baseball league and
of the New Haven Baseball
club, announces the following list OF
umpires for the season of 1899: Gruber
and Malone of New Haven, Hill OF Sey-
mour, Cox of New Britain, Whitlow OF
Meriden, Hamill Of New, London and
of Wallingford. 1t is prob
able that still another man will be ap-
pointed from Norwich and vicinity.

Good Game Expected at Yale Field
To-day.

The Yale university baseball team will
cross bats with the team from Dart
mouth at Yale field this afternoon.
Dartmouth recently defeated Harvard,
and the team is the best that has rep
resented that institution for several
years. The game in consequence should
be the best that has been played here
this season. It is not decided whether
Cook or Caravan will pitch for Yale, but
it Is likely that the latter will start the
game He may be succeeded by Cook
sa the game progresses. The lineup
otherwise will be:

The stock Market.

New York, May 5.-The market was
of a highly professional order all day,
and although resistance appeared from
time to time in particular stocks, the
market was weak practically through
out. The grangers, coalers and a NUM-
Der of the specialties, particularly
Brooklyn Transit, Peoples Gas, Sugar.
American Steel and Wire, Continental
Tobacco and Anaconda were especially
weak The feverishness Of prices, ac-
companied by bear pressure, induced
considerable liquidation. London was
purchaser of moderate amount, but
not enough to sustain the international
stocks While the bank statement can
never be forecasted with any accuracy,
it is known that the banks on out-of-
town express movements and sub-treas-
ury operations showed a loss in cash Of
about $500, 600. This, together with the
understanding that to-morrow's state
ment would not reflect the $5,00O0 600
debit on account of the Spanish indem-
nifty payment led traders to assume
that tomorrow showing will not be
altogether favorable, because of the
financing of industrials and the SUBJ
scription to the Amalgamated Copper
company. The understanding, however,
that the sub treasury will cash 10000
900 indemnity warrants next week, was
regarded as likely to make a large adj
dition to the 1oanable funds which will
be reflected in subsequent bank state
ments. Domestic news was scant but
the possibility Of foreign complications
over Transvaal affairs received some
notice. There was some liquidation of
marginal holdings by spectators dis
Outraged at the seeming lack of inside
support in certain properties, and the
confident operations Of the bears. The
market closed weak at about the low
est
A fairly good tone was maintained
throughout the day in the bond market
which moved pretty much independent

On Thursllv, August 10, 4. Il. Gilbert,
AMI his daughter Claudia, will leave Sd.
lem, via the Union Pacific on visit 10
the East. They will be absent four TO
six weeks, and will pleasantly combine
business with recreation.
One OF the items under the former
head will be the laying in stock of
pianos and organs for Salem dealer
But the most important
r,atter OF business and the
main incentive to the trip, will
be the investigation Of the horseless
carriage proposition. Mr.. Gilbert pro-
poses to look into this matter thorougly
with view 10 the intr1 luction OF the
horseess carriage on the coast. lie Will
visit Chicago, New York and all the
large cities in which the automobile has
been introduced.
The questions 10 be looked
into are: whether the horseless carriage
has yet been peri cted sufficiently "a
adopt it 10 use on such roads rs we have
in the Pacific Northwest; what kind OF
motor, gasoline, el ctric or other, would
be best in this,scction; whether there are
likely 10 he great changes OF improve
ments in construction made in the I'M
mediate future; whether the cost, now
$3.50 To $250J, is likely 10 be greatly re-
duced within a short time.
At present the gasoline motor seems
10 be the favorite Tor propulsion Of th,
automobile, and no formidable rival
thereto is in sight. II seems probable
however, that the cost may be mater
ially reduced.
The example set in the bicycle trade
is likely 20 be follow in the other.
Mr.. Gilbert will look into all these
points and il the present outlook seems
favorable, he will take steps 10 cover
this territory thoroughly in the int 3rest
Of the new vehicle, probably establish
ing headquarters at Portland.
