FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
SELLING TO REALIZE PROFITS
Kept Market UnsettIsd-lnroad on
Prices on General List.

New York, April 15.-There was
quite obvious distribution of stocks 60
ing on today and the selling to realize
profits kept the tone of the market I'M
settled and irregular and made consid-
cradle inroad on prices in the general
list. The selling was conducted with
caution and skill, with a view to cause
as little effect on prices as possible,
and gave evidence in that respect of
the experience in the management of
the speculative campaign. The bear
contingent made some efforts to push
the decline in prices and take the mar
lSet away from the sellers. The bear
party seemed TO be timid about ex-
tending their position, owing to the
impression of the power and capacity
Of the conductors of the campaign and
the fear that the letting down of prices
was a manoueVer to induce the bears
to commit themselves with the pur-
pose Of forcing them to cover shorts
at higher prices later The usual de-
vice of making selected stocks strong
for sympathetic effect on the general
list was adopted as a sustaining influ-
ence while the realizing sales were go
ing on. The coalers as a group were
the conspicuous example, especially
Reading, which was kept very active
throughout the session. A reduction
in prices of some grades of copper was
made at the New York metal exchange
but the copper stocks Jared no worse
than the general list. Reports were
current of some large orders being
placed for structural steel and an ag-
gregate fsnlall orders which give
promise Of raising the April total to a
record. On the other hand the rumor
that a cut was impending in the price
of steel rails was of contrary effect on
the tone Of the steel industrials. Some
increased firmness is reported in the
money market but the 2 IL per cent
rate OF yesterday for coal loans was
not repeated today. There was a gen.
eral recovery in prices in the latter
part of the day but the closing tone
was irregular again. Bonds were ir-

championship game at the POLO

go down to defeat by a score of 3 to

The game was a pitching duel be-
tween Irving Wilhelm and Leon Ames,
in which the Brooklyn boxman tired
out his New York rival. Ames did not
allow a hit in the first nine innings,
only twenty-seven men facing him in
this time. In the extra periods. the
Brooklyns batted him hard, making
four hits in the last inning.
Manager Lumley started his team
on the road to victory in the thirteenth
inning by tripling. Jordan was pur-
posely passed in the hope that double
play could be pulled off on Lennox,
who, however, singled, scoring Lum-

hits by Bergen and Burch and Schlei's

Irish Giant Lifts Indians Scalp
Jack McGrath Wins Back Championship Norwich War.
rors Rolled High, but Lost in Providence-Major
League Baseball.

Big Jack McGrath regaIned the
wrestling crown Thursday night in
his match with Chief Fighting Bear,
and in spectacular form, by winning
the third and decisive fall in the jig
time of 50 seconds. 1t was a popular
victory for the Irish Giant and the
crowd of 400 nearly raised the roof
with their cheers for the local cham
pion.
The Indian was the same tireless and
aggressive wrestler he has shown him.
self in all the bouts here, but he ran
up against McGrath when the Giant
was showing his best and cleverest
work and the Red Mans scalp was
neatly lifted in two falls out of three.
The main bout was preceded by two
preliminaries. Peter Colus threw
Young Willis in the first in II min
utes and 10 seconds, which was fol-
lowed by a ten minute bout between
Jim Popus and Peter Lewis. Two falls
were won by Lewis, who threw Popus
in minutes for the first and in
minutes 80 seconds for the second.
Joe Desmond was referee and Kid
Wilson timekeeper for the bouts.
When the principals for the big
heavyweight bout appeared for a fin
ish event. two out of three. it was an
nounced that this was to be their final
match, each having one to his credit so
far. Joe Desmond refereed and Luke
Riley was timekeeDer.
The first fall was full of effective
head spinnings and bridge work on the
part of McGrath in defending himself
and breaking out of the Indians dan
gerous holds. but the Chief finally
fastened him for the decision with a
half-nelson and leg hold in 20 min
utes and 40 seconds.
When they came back to the mat
again, McGrath went after the Indian
in lively fashion and this period was
the fastest of the evening. McGrath
won the fall in 10 minutes with head
scissors and arm lock from which
there was no escape for the Chief,
The third and decisive fall was over
and McGrath was the winner Of the
match before either the audience or
the Chief had time to catch their
breaths after the first grapple. Mr.
Grath, who was underneath. reached
through. grabbed the Indian by the
legs and hauled him down, at the same
time falling with all his weight on the
Indians chest and crushing him to the
mat for the winning fall in 50 seconds,
which, as far as known is the record
time for this vicinity in a heavy
weight match.

Levarge's Del-Hoff Colts, a team
just organized. are expected to tear
things up a little in the baseball line
as soon as they hit their stride. They
will get out for practice at once and
play a game Tuesday on the Cranberry
lot against Robinson's Wauregan House
walters. Efforts were made to get
Grant Troland to pitch because his
curves would feaZe opposing batsmen
and his strong stick work would be a
big help to the team, but he remains
firm in his resolve TO forsake the dia-
mOnd. However the loss Of Troland
will probably be more than made fIp
by signing Tim Sullivan to play first.
In all departments of the game Sulli-

NOR-TAFT PLAYERS
WILL DIVIDE PROCEEDS
New Plan to Conduct Local Ball Team
This Year-change in Admission
Price.

Arrangements by the Nor-Taft man
agement have been made with all the
players on their list TO play on divis-
ion basis this season, instead of on a
salary list, the same plan that was
worked with success in Wauregan,
Jewett City, Dayville and North Gros-
venordale last year. The team was
from a financial success last season,
although champions of the league and
this was found to be a working ar
rangernent which could be carried out
to keep the team here this season. AS
Connecticut league baseball petered
out in Norwich. there is all the more
reason to support the Norwich Taft
vile club, II the city is to enjoy any
kind Of baseball, and the local men
will directly benefit according to the
local patronage.
1t has also been decided to drop the
admission price this year at Sachem
park, both practice and league games,
to 15c instead of zoe, and the grand
stand will be 10c everywhere, which is
also reduction from last year.
