Especial to The BulIetin.l

Putnam, Feb. 11.-Fritz Hanson of
Worcester, the invincible welterweight
wrestling Swede, went out of his class
tonight to wrest victory from Barrette
of Montreal, the Canadian middle
weight champion. Hanson won in two
straight falls, securing the first with
chancery and crotch hold in 40 min
utes 40 seconds, and the second with a
neck scissors and wrist hold in %
minutes and 25 seconds.
1t was far and away the best bit of
sport yet put on at the Putnam Social
and Athletic club, and the members
were on their feet applauding time and
again. Barrette was easily the favor
lite with the crowd and was picked by
many as a sure winner. Hanson went
at him from the sound of the bell, and
the struggle that went nearly fun
fifty minutes before the first fall has
never been equalled on mat in this
city.
The first half hour was an even thing,
but from then on Hanson's better gem
eralship began to be effective. Time
and again he caught Barrette in a neck
scissors that held like a steel trap, and
though the Canadian managed to break
It a dozen times or more, it was finally
effective in wearing him down and
winning the Swede the match. Han
son used hardly any other hold, and
his victory IS regarded by many as the
greatest of his career.
Bulldog Clayton of England was pres
ent and challenged the winner. Stan
ton Abbott of Providence was referee.

New Owners Set Early Date for the
Springfield Ball Players.

u
John f. cellar and William E. Carey,
owners elect of the Springfield base
ball cluS have signed the lease for
the use of the Hampden park baseball
grounds.
Mr.. cellar, who will be playing man
eger of the club, will order all hands
to report on April Z, the earliest re-
porting time for a Springfield club in
years.
The players whom Cellar is banking
en- are as follows: Catchers, Whiting,
Connor, Hirst and Cahill pitchers,
Hess, Juby, Mclean, Porroy, Zazat-
key, and probably Murray Parker;
first base, cellar; second base, Col
Inns; shortstop, Burns; third base,
Pinkerton and McAndrews; outfield.
Rising, Maggert and Waite. and an
other man with whon he is now nego-
tiating. Bill Yale will be traded,
probably to Waterbury or New Haven.
MeAndrews may also be traded, but
this point is unsettled. Pinkerton. the
new third baSeman, is said to be flashy
and a hitter. Perkins, the Holyoke
player, says Pinkerton is a star. OF
the new men, Cellar speaks strongly of
Collins in the infield and Porray, the
pitcher. He has played against Col
Inns, and thinks this fellow as good as
his name. Collins is a tall, wiry boy,
fast IN fielding, aGd is believed to have
a fine eye for the ball One of his
favorfte pastimes while playing with
MARLBORO was in banging the ball over
the fence. Down in Marlboro Billy
Fitzmaurice and Tansy, former Con-
necticut league players, were team
mates of Collins.
Burns will be kept at short. He told
cellar yesterday that if he did not hit
for $50 the coming season he would
chuck baseball at the end of the sea-
son. Cellar is planning to guard first
base himself.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
DULL STRENGTH IN STOCKS.
Days Changes Trivial in Most Cases
Double Holiday.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE dull
strength in today's market was as
cribed in large part to foreign inf1u-
ences and was an echo of the rOut
undergone by the bear element in the
speculation in the London stock mar
ket. London was a buyer of stocks
here on q considerable scale and this
was an important factor in the early
advance In prices, as shorts were in
clined to cover in view of the three
days closing of the stock exchange.
Most of the business was done during
the early part of the session, the &C
tivity declining after the London bust
ness hours had passed. Union Pacific
moved upwards with its usual strong
sympathetic effect in the whole list
The stock was faVorably influenced by
the official financial statement which
was presented by the stock exchange
in connection with the application to
list the new refunding bonds. The
admission Of directors representing the
new control to the Chesapeake and
Ohio board was made the occasion for
another demonstration of strength in
that stock. The whole of the south
ern groupAof railroad stocks was mark
ed up briskly without special explana-
ton. There was a noticeable selec-
ton of low grade bonds also for active
market movements, especially amongst
those which have been deposited with
protective committees in the course Of
Reorganization plans. Estimates Of
the currency movement We're for only
part Of the week, but they indicated
some loss Of cash by the banks. as
the withdrawal Of deposits by the
United States treasury and the ship
ments of gold to South America were
not offset by the inflow OF cash from
the interior The money market was
not perceptibly affected by this show
ing and it was supposed that some
large loans are being taken over from
the hanks by the trust companies. The
took market sank back into lethargy
in the late dealings and the days
changes proved trivial in most cases

MANAGING PRIzEFIeHTERs
Not So Easy-Six Months Wrecked the
Man Who Tried to Run John l..

Every young fellow who knocks
about the boxing clubs thinks it's a
picnic to manage a star fighter" said a
veteran sporting man as he chatted
with several clubmen at the ringside
of the National Athletic club in New
York. the other night. Some years
ago 1 thought so myself, when I was
young and full Of ginger, and after
spending lot OF money across the
bar to make myself solid with John l..
Sullivan, became his manager. Then
it was that I could see the money
rolling into my pockets in ten and
twenty thousand stacks, but, let me
tell you. it was the warmest six months
of my life, for if I had remained Sui
livan's manager for another half year
I'd have been in my grave.
1T took me just six months, how
ever, to discover that the big fellow
was managing me instead of me man
aging him. At the end eff rc- expert

GARRISON HAD EVERYTHING.
Fred Pfeffer Says His Control Was
Marvelous-Terrific Speed.

John Clarkson never had a superior
as Il pitcher, and never will" said Fred
Pfeffer who was Chicago's star second
baseman under Captain Anson. the
other day. The Rube Waddells, the
Mordecai Browns, the Ed Walshes and
the Chfisty Mathewsons may come and
go and they may tie old John, but
none of them will ever stand as his
superior | stood behind him day in
and day out and watched his magnifi-
cent control, as confident of success,
especially in tight places. as l would
have been with the United States army
behind me. That was Clarkson's long
suit. He was master of control. be-
lieve he could put ball where ne
wanted it nine times out of ten. He
had everything any pitcher ever mad
as well. His speed was something
terrific and he could throw any curve.
However, his favorite ball was drop
something like the spitball Of today
although he delivered it without the
ointment necessary nnwaGays.
You must remember that in ms day
Clarkson had to face that wonderful
bunch of hftters Of the old Detroit
team, when Brouthers, Thompson,
Rowe, Ed Hanlon, Hardy Richardson,
Jim White, Dunlap and George Wood
were the greatest sluggers on the dia-
mond. Clarkson was their hoodoo.
Iney seldom won a game from MN.
If l remember rightly John did not
lose more than two or, three games in
all that he pitched against Detroit. /
will venture to say that if Clarkson
and Kelly. who were the famous bat
terry in 1899, were alive today $4,000
would not buy their releases.
Clarkson furnished an amusing in
cident at Harvard more than twenty
years ago. At the time he was a
member of the Chicago team and pro-
fessional coaches were not allowed at
Harvard. Clarkson lived in Cambridge
and as he needed early spring practice
he used to visit Holmes field at the
Invitation Of the varsity nine to pitch
against the candidates. The great
boxman had shaved off his mustache
that year and one day he appeared on
the field in a Harvard uniform. As
he proceeded to hand up a wonderful
assortment of curves a member of the
Harvard faculty who is still at Cam
bridge looked him over with evident
admiration, after which he went away
enthusing over "the new freshman
pitcher" as he called him. and he
never learned Of his error.

STREET CLOTHES PUZZLE FANS.
Ball Players Known to Some Only
When in Uniform.

1t is a conceded fact that two-rtirds
of the baseball fans would not recog-
nize more than a few of the players
of their own team were the players to
appear before them in street dress in
stead of uniform. In fact, some of the
most ardent rooters would pass one Of
their favorite players by on the street
without a word. They may be able to
pick out the various players on the
field, but when the heroes of the dia-
mond get on their glad rags" they are
disguised. It is also true that many
fans would not konw who was meant
were some of the ball players to be
referred to by their right names in
stead of the nicS-names which they
have borne for many a year.
