BASKET BALL.

The Middletown business mems basket ball quintet was no match for the local business mems team in the game played in Middletown last even- ing. The Brass city boys defeated their opponents by the decisive score of g to 12. The first half ended with score a tie. 10 to 10. In the second half the Waterburians put more vim and dash into their play and they were soon leading. The lineup was as fol lows:
 Waterbury. Position. Middletown. Platt ....... forwards ....... Reed McWilliam ............... Thompson Kelsey ....... center .... McConiche F1tZSlmmonS ................ BfoWn Marggraf .... guards ..... Dempsey Cooney .... substitute .... Coegler
 Andrew Cooney. timekeeper; Schu- maker, referee and umpire.
 The Sterling basket ball team was defeated in Winsted last evening by the Winsted Y. NJ. c. A., the score standing 21 to 20. The team work of the Sterlings was far superior to that of the Winsteds, but the former were unfortunate in shooting for the bas- kets. Time and again they missed ex- cellent opportunities for scoring. At the end of the first half the score stood 14 to 10 in favor of the Winsteds. The visitors played at lightning pace in the second half. Their play was fast and aggressive. Slowly they were gaining on their opponents. But play as they might they were unable to equal their opponents score owing to the shortness of time. Schildmiller for the Sterlings and Sullivan for Winsted played the best game. The Sterlings will face the same team again in Win sted next week.

FOR OLYMPIAN GAMES.
Big Sum Is Necessary if Famous Con-
 tests Go to Chicago.

Chicago, March 16.-The committee in charge of the movement to bring the Olympian games to Chicago in 1904 has decided that the first step in that direction must be the raising of $1OO,OOO, which is half the estimated expense of the undertaking. Nothing further will be done in the matter until that sum is assured. It is be- lieved that the railroads which center here. the surface and elevated roads, the hotels and the larger business houses of Chicago will contribute liberally to the project. by which all these interests will be benefited great ly. It is proposed to raise the re- mainder of the required $2OO,OOO by private or public subscriptions.

as follows to a relative in ColumbQs: q know that Corbett can put it all over me in six rounds" said .Jenrles. tHe is a cleverer sparrer than am, and would make such a showing that he would get the decisien. In finish fight he has absolutely no chance with me, and he knows it, as everybody else does If I had agreed to meet him ne would likely have gotten the decision and would have been made to look like thirty cents. No friend of mine would have ever made such match for me, and hereafter I will make my own" Jeffries also stated that there was a disagreement with Brady on ac- count of the division of the profits of the show, "A Man from the West" in which Jeffries takes stellar role. He insisted that his percentage was en- tirely too small and that he intended to demand more. Jeffries asserted that he would not part with his trainer, Billy Delaney. 'I made bad mis- take in separating from him once be- fore. when I dropped him for Tommy Ryan I will not repeat the mistake and intend to hang on to the old man, said he.
 Joe Grim. the champion Italian prize fighter at 13S pOunuS, ana hiu W.T. Hams, champion at 133 pounds, ar rived in town from Philadelphia yes terday, and are anxious to get on match with some of the "pugs' in this vicinity.
 Last evening Manager Moe Harris. of the National Athletic club, received a telephone message from Tom O'Rourke to the effect that Walcott will come on here Tuesday and that he, O'Rourke, will be here on the next day, accompanied by Charley Mitch ell, and a number of prominent New York sporting men. The big sports all through the east seem to regard this exhibition as one of more than Ordl- nary importance as a big delegation has chartered a special train from points as far south as Philadelphia. Of course. there will be the usual ac- commodation here. The boxers are all in high spirits and the best of trim. The sale of tickets has commenced and from the way the choice ones are be- ing gobbled up the affair is going to be q grand success in every way.

RECIPROCITY CONVENTION.
About 200 Delegates from All Over Country
Meet at Washington.

Washington, NOV. 20.-Alany uf the
manufa curing Industries of the United
States were represented AT the national
reciprocity convention which began it's
sessions here Tuesday. There Were. 2o0
delegates present in response to q call
issued by the National Association of
Manufacturers at Detroit. last June.
The convention is representative of all
sections and its object Is to give ex-
preston to the views of the manufact-
urerS generally on the subject of reCi-
procity. ID. a. Thompkins of Charlotte.

lutions of greeting TO Presidet Roose-
venlt pledging its support and ex
pressing its confidence in his admins
d
chair outlined the work before the con-
vention. He said in part:
'Our aim has been to forestal tariff
agitation. not to encourage it, 1t is the
duty of this convention to harmonize
as far as possible the widely differing
opinions represented in this body and
to reduce to clear and forceful express
sion such principles as we hold in COM
mon. We are here to harmonize our
vicws not to emphasize our differences.
This is no time or place for senti-
ment, for theories or for statements
that cannot be fully substantiated by
facts. / take it we are all agreed as
to certain general propositions such as
| these:
| THAT some of the duties embraced
| in our present tariff are not longer
| needful for the existence of the indus
tries for whose protection they are i'm
| posed.
That many of our industries have
reached a stage in their development
where the home market alone cannot
absorb their entire product and conse-
quently new outlets are necessary for
their continuous operation and the
steady employment of their opera
! tiVeS.
That the establishment of more
cordial commercial relations with other
nations by means Of exchange of tariff
concessions would enlarge the foreign
| outlets of those industries for which
increased export trade is necessary.
THAT. if such applications of the
principles Of commercial reciprocity
could be made without injury to any
Cf our industries and consequent eX-
pansion of our foreign trade, would be
beneficial to all our commercial and in
drStrial interests.
The reciprocity that is wanted. to-
day. is q reciprocity that means some
thing and promises something in the
shape of tangible advantages for our
commerce. not merely expressions of
kind sentiment toward all the business
world. but an actual giving and taking
of concessions that will open wider for
us the markets of the world and broad
en- the distribution of our products
