NEW LEAGUE MOoTED.
Possibility of Alliance to Include Five
 Teams-Webster Promoter.

There is rumor of a proposition to form a baseball league to be com posed of Putnam. North Grosvenor- dale, Village, Webster. South bridge, and possibly a team from one other town. This is merely talk at present, but it may go through. If it does, it will mean the finish of the Eastern Connecticut league. Propos- als from the promoters of the new league have been made to managers of teams in the Eastern Connecticut league to jump out of their present circuit and get into one that they claim is going to be a bretter proposi- ton financially. Pin Mathieu is or ganizing the Webster team and the plan up there is to play the games at Beacon park, where the patronage is sure to be heavy.

REPORT ON CROPS
BRINGS A RALLY
Market Finds Copper Shares in
Demand on the July,
Statement
MORE GOLD TO BE IMPORTED
Export Statement Expected to
Fall Below That of the
Previous Month
MORE GOLD TO BE IMPORTED

NEW YORK, Aug. S.-The govern
ment report on the condition of grain
crops on August l and the July sta
tistics for the Producers association
were the two items of news which at
tracted the greatest amount of atten-
ton in the field district today. The
effort was more of repression than OF
stimulation on speculative activity, as
the appearance of the two reports did
not occur until the session of the stock
exchange was well advanced.
The first effect of the government
crop report was to depress prices
sharply, but a rally followed.
The copper producers report was well
received, more from it's contrast with
the predictions of it's contents than
from positive betterment in trade con-
ditions to be inferred from it's show
ing. The impression had got abroad
that a substantial increase in the sur
plus stocks on hand would be shown
by the report. An increase of only
2,254, ,661 pounds was accepted, there
fore, as an agreeable disappointment
A reduction from the months pro-
duction of S,S49,1S5 pounds compared
with June indicated an extremely mod
crate restriction of output. The rise
in the copper stocks in response to the
report was belated, following long
pause after the statistics were first
published. The stocks broke again
later in common with the whole mar
ket, but showed much resistance,
The confusion of sentiment over the
actual situation of the market was ac-
curately reflected in the feverish fluo-
tuations which followed the appear
ance of the crop report in the last half
hour on the stock market. But sup
port was accorded the market and the
rallying of coppers helped in sustain
ing the general list at the last. The
more favorable weather conditions
which have existed since the date of
the report both in the corn belt and
the spring wheat region neutralized the
effect to some extent.
The engagement of additional gold in
London today was in accordance with
expectations The British trade state
ment for July showed a considerable
falling off in values of imports and
does not promise well for the July
statement of exports from this coun-
try. which have been expected to show
the June improvement in that item
continued or extended.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $906,000.
United States bonds were unchanged

CHICAGO, Aug. s.-Wheat at no time sold
as high as Saturdays close, although May de-
livery near it. The market was first
under the pressure of hedging sales made
against cash wheat purchases and bearish do
nestle and foreign statistical news, and later
was affected by liquidation by local longs who
were preparing themselves for a possible ad-
verse government report General trade was
rather light during the last half of the ses
sion. There just little Improvement in
the premium for cash wheat here, due alto
gether to elevator competition. st. Louis, how
ever, reported better call for flour, with
millers buying September wheat Reverse re-
ports were heard from the northwest, where
Spring wheat -four, of course, is at disad-
vantage in competing with winter private
cable here reported continued unfavorable
weather in Europe, and this was something of
a help to the market at one time. other for
eign news was bearish. the government re
Bort made the winter wheat yield 45SOOO,OOO
bushels, against Ala, 900 bushels last month.
The spring wheat condition is practically un-
changed.
Corn was easier on rather free local selling
at the start, but offerings were quickly abb
sorbed by commission houses and values re-
covered and scored a slight gain. Later the
market dragged again, trade being affected
some by wheat easiness and buyers awaiting
the government report. There has been good
demand for cash corn mere touay' ms soS 80
ernment make the condition or corn 80
against S5.4 last month and crop possibility
of 81, 800 O0O 600 bushels. The condition of corn
has improved since the report was made up,
and we think the report will be accepted as
bearish. .
Oats weakened with other grains. Consid-
erable hedging during early morning, but oats
was taken by shorts. Receivers report large
consfgnments with speculative demand best
available. The government makes the oat crop
l. 900. 600 900 bushels.
Provisions were rather quiet today. There
has been support in the way Of buying Janu-
arv and some times nearby stuff by packers,
but plenty of nearby stuff is coming on mar
ket on hard spots
