 The directors of the State league hell
 their last meeting before the opening O
 the season in the Hotel Garde Tuesda,
 evening. It was unusually harmoniou for such a meeting and all arrangement
 for beginning the season were success fully completed. The schedule was pre-
 sented by George Bindloss of New Lon
 don and evoked the usual discussion
 but after a number of changes hat been made it was declared satisfactor! and adopted It is printed below.
 The directors present were Presiden Whitlock, Shelton; Secretary O'Rourke : Bridgeport; George Bindloss, New Lon don; R. c. Doe, Norwich; Canavan anc Reilly, New Haven; A. R. Penny, Mer iden; Roger Connor, Waterbury; "Jer ry'' Denny, Derby; Messrs. Kennedy and Tracy, Bristol. All filed bonds ol $500 to finish the season and paid the annual dues of $10. The New Haver franchise was formally transferred from Messrs. Reilly and Miller to James Canavan In addition to the two um pires appointed at previous meeting David Hill of Seymour. Charles Snyder of Washington, D. C., and Thomas Kel- ly of Brockton, Mass, were appointed umpires thus completing the number The two umpires referred to are D. J. Connor of Blackstone, Mass, and D. d. Corcoran of Naugatuck.
 For the benefit of the directors pres- ent, MT. Connor rehearsed his griev- ances with the Waterbury Traction company, which are at the bottom of the story that he would transfer his franchise to Danbury. The grievances were evidently worthy of attention, for the directors voted to uphold Mr. Con- nor should he make the transfer. The latter stated that 1t is not likely that the change will be made.
 James E. Canavan, the new manager of the Blues, has been very busy all week in arranging his team. He has released Dorsey and Lawler, and al- ready the other State league managers are in communication with these play CTS. So far as he can see at present, Manager Canavan expects to play these men on his team: Ashe, vollendorf and Heymerl, pitchers; Luchia and Cove, catchers; Canavan, first base: Bone, second base; Glenn, possibly, shortstop; Cusick, third base; Lepine and Hobe Whiting, outfielders. A player named Shepard, from Newburyport. Mass, will come on for trial as pitcher, and another pitcher and infielder from Bos- ton are also seeking trial. In addition to them Manager Canavan has lines out for couple of fine players whose names he does not care to divulge at present.
