Derby, Conn, Feb. S.-Girls's teams from

There was bad blood before the game. be-
cause the Waterbury girls insisted upon the
privilege of interference, a style Of play
which the local team had always barred.
At last 1t was agreed that the first half
should be played without and the second
half with interference.
There was little out of the ordinary in the
first half. which ended with the score 10 to
6 In New Ravens favor, but the second
half from the call Of time was marked by
basketball contest in this State.

EFFORT TO FORCE FINS
INTO RUSSIAN ARMY.
Cznr Invests Governor With lniim-
tied Powers for Completing the
Finnish Battalion.

ST. Petersburg. Feb. Sin the recent de
cree in which the Gar ordered severe dis
ciplinary measures against al Finlanders
who failed to comply with their military
obligations in 1902, the Emperor invests
General Bobriokoff, the Governor of Fin
land. with unlimited powers for completing
a Finnish battalion.
The public interprets this step as giving
General BobriCkoff authority to accept per-
sons who fall below the medical and ply
steal requirements.
The fact tina the go men required for
this battalion were not secured from n.5OG
obedient recruits. apparently confirms prev
ious assertions that on.y these Firms who
are nearly certain of rejection or have legal
exemption from service offered themselves.
The stubbornness of the resistance of the
Finlanders is II further illustrated by the Gov
ernment's inability to find postal. officers
willing to sanction the opening of letters. =.
The order to open suspicious mail ana
confiscate contraband matter was prepared
last summer. The honored old Postmaster
General has resigned rather than sign the
order.
After a long interval a complaisant man
was found. whereupon the Postmasters
secretary, whose counter signature was
requisite, resigned his post and no sue
cessor to him has yet been found.

LEAD AND ZINC REPORT.
Assay Basis Prices of Both Metals
Continue Strong.

SPECIAL.
Joplin, No. Feb. s.-The assay basis price
of zinc ore continues strong at $50 TO s5
per ton for 60-per-cent zinc, but with no
sales of fancy lots. The last week the
highest price was only $3.50 per ton.
ordinarily such small of ENC
as have left the district every week OF
this year would msan a rapidlJ increasing
reserve stock. Dut TINS IS not true at this
time. because the weekly output is very
sn all, and this is caused by a shortage OF
coal that is keeping a palt of the mines
Idle all of the time. The reserve. however
is slowly increasing in quani,y. Purchas-
ing agents cannot move the zinc ore nearly
as RAPIDLY as desired. two of the roads en-
tering the field being able to Supp only
one-half the cars asked for several weeks.
The principal cause of the restricted out
put arises from a lack of fuel, and there
seems no probability that the situation will
be relieved soon, although coal dealers are
prOfuSe in promises.
The second 5CO-ton shipment of zinc ore
from the Jopi.n district, tOund for
IS due 10 leave the port of Galveston 10
morrow. completing arrangements between
the Missouri and Kansas zinc Miners AS
ISOLATION and Frank Nicholson. who had
charge of the expectation.
Before expectation was begun the assay
basis price for zinc was as per ton. and
the ore exported was sold ut a loss of -
per ton, or a basis of So. The district has
pr ofited immensely by sending abroad the
surplus stock and causing prices to resume
a normal basis. With tAe inability to Sc.
cure cars for loading out the ore the fuel
scarcity las been benencial in forcing a
limit to the output. The car stringency is
an important factor in the local sltua zion
when it is understood that there d-e about
1000 tons of ore purchased, and some CT II
paid for, that cannot be moved.
Three buyers in the field FOR lead keep
the market price of this mineral at the
satisfactory point of s5l per ton. 4 year ago
lead sold at $3.50 per ton and zinc at $S1oO.
top price. The Shipment of zinc was larger
that week than last week by b,2,9lJ. pounds.
but the lead sales were less by 2O5, 10
pounds, and the value was sieiter ,ast week
by 81. 413.

The effect OF Mgr. Guilds latest report,

to return to the original proposition made
by TIE United states to resort to arbitration
for the purchase Of the friar linds, the
settlement of the rentals. the indemnity for
damages due from the United States. and

Therefore the preamble to the bill
reads. in order to immoralize so far as the
same may be done in marble the life of
Frances E. Willard, and to show all nations
how exalted a sphere woman occupies in
the State. the following law is hereby
enacted: tetc.)"
OLD FORT MASSAC.
The succeeding three items are among the
mental class. backed mostly by the women.
1t proposes purchasing old Fort Massac
ana surrounding ground. and establishing
there a State park. Fort Massac dates to
the revolutionary War. and many a tale
of Indian and British warfare is attached
to il. II is in the southern section of the

of MasSac County. The bill provides that the
regent of the Illinois Daughters of the
Revolution and two members OF the same
organization be appointed a commission to
purchase the property on behalf of the State
and transform it into a park.
Following down the list. two appropria-
tons are reached. involving the creation of
two new and important State charitable in
stituticns. a sanitarium for consumptives,
and a colony for epileptics. Both call for
large sums. but are part of the charitable
institutions supported by all the large
States. and are expected to go through.
Men are backing two of the senti-
mental items which appear. The one pro-
pides $4,000 for the erection of a statue to
Richard Yates. war Governor of Illinois,.
and father of the present Governor. The
second would commemorate the services of
the lIllionis soldiers at the Battle of Vicks-
burg. by marking the position of each regi-
ment and battery on the battlefield.
The remainder are of the usual nature.
