TALKS OF TREATIES.
Taft's principal address, at the Coli
scum, was devoted to the peace treat
les. The big crowd applauded when
he announced his subject and he was
frequently interrupted by them. The
audience had first shown its friendli-
ness by vigorously applauding Cover
nor Carroll when he introduced Taft
as a president whose administration
we appreciated; whose comprehension
OF public questions is as broad as the
needs OF the land, and whose courage
to do right is measured only by the
limit of human ability" Cummins fire.
quently joined I'm the applause which
marked the presidents appeal for sup
port of arbitration treaties.
HAVE INFORMAL DEBATE.
On the way out OF the Coliseum Taft
and Cummins had sort OF an informal
joint debate on the subject Of the
pending treaties. Cummins pointed
out a number of provisions which he
thought should be altered. and said he
insisted upon the treaties being de-
bated in open session by the senate.
Cummins said he had not favored
either the majority or minority re-
port of he foreign relations commit
tee on the treaties. Isn't that gener-
ally the case? Don't you usually take
A position OF your own" laughed the
president Cummins assented. The
president left for Abba at 11:55.

CHANCE FOR YOUNG
 PITCHERS WITH THE CUBS.
Withdrawal of Vic Willis and Overall
 Leaves Gap to Be Filled.

According to some of the rabid fol- lowers of the Chicago Nationals the refusal of Overall and Willis to get into line may prove blessing in disguise to the Cubs. The vacancies caused by the withdrawal of the veterans will give the recruits on Manager Chances staff real chance to make good Had the two old timers come to bat as was expected. there would of necessity have been cleaning out of superf1uQus slab men. Three pitching recruits with the best kind of records now are with the Cubs. Toney, Grifiin and Cook come with records that any bond company would accept and there will be a battle royal among them to see which can gain permanent berths with the 1911 champions.
 If Cook gets steady job he will not pitch on Sundays. He insisted on a para graph to this effect being inserted in his contract, and President Murphy and Manager Chance acqufesced- Neither of the moguls cared to oppose the young mans wishes when they heard his reasons. Cook is the son of a minister. His mother is opposed to his playing the national pastfme on Sundays, and out of respect to her wishes it was agreed that some other slabman would do the twirling Cook, while with the Peoria club of the Three Eyes league, taught a Sunday school class in the town of distilleries and it is understood he made good.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
MARKET DULL BUT STRONG. No Selling Pressure FoIlows Call of
 Congress in Extra Session.

NeW IOrky Marcns 6.@The stock market was strong today in spite of the fact that virtually tho same con ditaons prevailed as those which brought about recessions on previous days. It was the first business day since the call for the extra session of congress- was made, and. although stocks were depressed last week on expectations of the extra session, there was almost no selling pressure to- day.
 The fact that there was possibility of decisions by the supreme couft in eases affecting the status of some of the largest corporations did not dis curb the market as ofl previous Mon days. The extent of the holdings of short stocks probably accounted in largo part for tho absence of selling pressure. Selection of 8 day fort night later than was expected for the assembling of the extra session of the new congress gave unexpected lee- way for operations before the time when it will become apparent whether the tariff is to be taken up in a com prehensive way, and made bear trad- CTS reluctant to increase their hold ings.
 When 1t became apparent that the selling movement of last week was not to be continued there was some cover ing on short contracts, which, with a renewal of bullish tactics, put up prices of most of the standard stocks a point or more in the morning. There after the market was dull, but the close was generally below the top lev el. The day was one of the dul1est in several weeks.
 The annual reports of two of the in-- dependent steel compandes-Cambria and Beth1ehem-ehowed that in spite of unfavora!ble trade conditions in the last part of 1910, they had made large gains in earnings. The Bethlehem com pany reported the largest earnings in it's history With . surplus, after pay ment of fixed charges and a liberal ap- propriatfon for depreciation, of about Tho Cambr4a's net earnings increased by $z,022,0 900 to $4,946, 900. New orders of the United States Steel corporation for February were reported as being the largest of any month since early
 The determination of the interstate commerce commission to adhere strict ly to tits ruling in the freight rate cases was shown-in it's refusal to per- init the railroads to postpone with drayal of their advanced tariffs, in- stead of cancelling them forthwith. The days developments gave no indica.- tions of any betterment in the position of the roads. Advices from Chicago were that tTa0lo on the western roads was irregular. owing largely to the hesitancy of manufacturing interests.
 No changes were reported in time money, and brokers stated that the market was duller than on any previ- ous day for several months.
 The feature oI the bond market was spectacular riDe of 10 points in 'Vir- ginia refunding otxes to 67 1-4.' on tho news that the state supreme court had decided this controversy of long stand ing.

VALE HAS ENOUGH
 ON PITCHING STAFF.
Tommers Considered the Most Likely
 One at This Date.

The battery candidates for the Yale baseball team have begun their work in the gymnasium, and each afternoon it looks as if there was already suff1- cient enthusiasm to win the champion ship Only the battery candidates are having regular work, but the other members of the squad spend a great part of the tina playing handball. Ex- cept for the weekly classes of fresh men. the gymnasium floor is practically given over to the battery candidates, and after nearly . weeks work they are showing good early season form.
 Tommers /heads the list because of his work last year, and Carhart looks now like . premier catcher. Neither of them, however, can rely on a position on the team because of past achieve ments, for the bright chances for a championship nine have made all of tho candidates very ambitious to be one of tho nine first men to get their letters in the first championship game in Juno, still three months away The squad of pitchers and catchers is un- usually large. There are at least IS pitchers, and more- than that number of catchers. Some of the men will be .weeded out, but they will be kept at work in the gymnasium under the trained eye of Coach Lush, who with Captain Corey will try to make some

Owls Finished Strong And Won|
F. & M. Clerla Won First Game of Duclpin Match
 But the Hoo-Hoos Were There at the Finish

Sometimes they come back, it seems, which Is the reason why the Owls special duckpin team came out win- 'ners on Monday evening at the Rose alleys in their match. with the Porte ous c Mitchell clerks. In the first place the Porteous q Mitchell five showed how they could come back af- ter their defeat last week, for they started off the match on Monday night by leading the Owls 1T pins and looked to have the match cinched this time.
 But the Owls had flop or, two left. and when they came to the line for the second string they crashed into the pins with devastating effect until at the finish of the string they had a margin of 53 on the P. 6 Ms, which gave the Owls lead of 6 pins in the match up to this point
 This they increased by 43 pins on the third string, finishing 49 pins ahead for the grand total, 1928 to 1244.
 Captain Donahue for the Owls rolled high individual three string total of the match. PTS, and Capt. Jerry Des- mond's 274 led the F. & M. five. for high individual three string total. but Bush of the Owls i've took the high individual string with 99.

McGrath says that the Pole is to throw him twice in 90 minutes as Herman, Zbyszko's man. ager, declined to make the match on the hour basis, thinking Jack too kood' to take the risk, and fearing the dam age to the Poles reputation, if Me Grath should manage to stall him off in the hour
 Jack is now to start in training for the Pole, having been resting his sore knee which bothered him when he wrestled Gotch. Later he will try to get a return match with Gotch
 Ali Hassan, the Turkish wrestler, is 2 possible opponent for McGrath in the near future, as George Tuohey wants to match the Turk with Mo Grath- Jack says he has no fear of proving himself, the superior of the big Turk, and if Tudhey will produce a club that will put up a purse for the match, McGraths name will 20 down on the contract fast enough
