INTENSELY DULL MARKET,

New York, Nov. 1.-The stock mar

have kept up an appearance OF anirna-

been attributed commonly to powerful
private banking interests. There was
a striking shrinkage in the total VOL

Yesterday and for several days last
week United States Steel accounted
for barely one-sixth OF the dealings

to be confined to protection against
bear attacks. Supporting orders were
encountered on the nor ming decline
and a rally ensued. Fractional gains
were retained at the close, but the tone

Guinness and neglect of the dealings
was the holiday in foreign markets.

There was a rise in the call money
rate to IA per cent, the highest for
the fall season. The progress of the
November money settlements was held
responsible. The sub treasury with

Notes on the Game.
TaNville won the toss and elected to
play with the wind in their favor, and
exactly at o'clock Referee F. Mus
grave sounded the whistle, which set
the BOYS going. 1t was soon noticeable
that Taftville was a beaten team, I'm

ing out to Sheppard. who in turn slip
ped the leather to Gordon, who easily
beat the visitors defense. putting in
beautiful center. which McGovern
muffed when a goal seemed certain.
From the goal kick the visitors right
wing carried the ball well down the
field, only to be neatly robbed by Billy
Wood. the new center half. who was
playing great game, and who with
his two partners. Buckley and Good
man. promptly broke up any attempt
at combination which the visitors
visitors left, carrying the ball down
at lighting speed and passing to Brown,
who in a flash whipped the ball into
the goal. easily beating the visitors
custodian. Thus Sterling started their
scoring, which Brown followed up add
from the beautiful passing by Under
wood, Gordon and Sheppard. Half
time, so.
On the restart the visitors right
broke away, only to be neatly robbed
by Goodman. who never allowed them
to get dangerous. Peters. the Sterling
left back, at this point twisted his
knee, but pluckily kept in his place,
and PLAYED a good accurate game
throughout Billy Brown. the visitors
center, was now working like a Trojan,
and tried hard to score. but Cardineau
proved a. hard man to beat. Although
Brown put in some lovely Shots they
were cleverly dealt with by Smith, the
home. custodian, who repeatedly drew
cheers from the spectators by his mas
terly exhibition. Gordon, Sheppard and
Underwood were cheered for a fine dis
play of combination, Gordon ending
the movement by a nice center, Which
Underwood pounced upon as quick as
a cat, and with a hard low shot scored
the fourth boa1 for the home team.
Brown quickly followed it us with an
other one. Peters at this point was
nInping painfully and was not to
blame for letting the visitors right
wing get through, when they scored
their only goal, five minutes from the
finish Final score, Sterling 5, Taft

Tenney Likely to Become Harvard
Coach

Boston, Nov. There is every prob
ability that FREQ Tenney former first
baseman of the New York Giants, will
be the coach of the Harvard baseball
squad. next year. The appointment
has not been made officially, but nego-
tiations have PASSED and now it is
believed that it is only a question of
time before the official announcement
is published. Last year Fred played
with the Lowell team of the New Eng
land league, and the fact that he is
slated to play there in 1911 may cause
him to decline the Harvard offer. But
1t is believed that arrangements will
be made whereby he will not be re-
quired to report at Lowell until the
college baseball season is over.
