TOO MUCH OF
 GARRISON FINISHING
Walter Camp Says Vale Football Teams Must Do More Preliminary practicing.

New Haven, Conn, April 10.-Nearly sixty men answered the call for candi- dates for the Yale football team to- night, and arrangements were made for the spring practice, which will begin after Easter, and will be longer and harder than in previous years. In speaking of football at Yale Walter Camp complimented the team of last fall on it's Garrison finish and also spoke Of similar finishes made for for mer teams. But he said such finishes were becoming too frequent for Yale teams. There must be more prelim- mary practice. he said, and this could be brought about by work in the spring. He also said that Yale must develop @ forward pass and show a greater efficiency in drop kicking. Ii Yale had shown a greater efficiency in the latter respect he said Harvard would probably have been beaten last fall when she made her frequent fum- bles.
 Head Coach Field urged the men to take up track work in order to develop more speed, saying that under the new rules speed more than strength was necessary. The spring practice will be under the direction of Captain Howe, Coach Field being tied up by his crew work

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
A SPIRlTLESS DAY. Street Shows Inclination to Do Noth- ing During Period of Uncertainty.

New York, April 10.-Stocks logged along with few changes through spiritless day in spite of the fact that there were several happenings of fa- vorable import which at other times might have stimulated trading. The course of the market today emphasized the pronounced disposition of the street to do nothing until present un- certainties are cleared up.
 Chief among those uncertainties are the forthcoming decisions of the su- preme court in the antitrust cases, and as this was the courts decision day" trading virtually stopped. after the slight amount of accumulated bus mess had been attended to at the opening, until word came from Wash ington that the decisions were not to be announced today. Then there was an attempt to bid up prices, but it met with so little success that it was soon abandoned and the market fell off slowly. the net result being a number Of trining declines.
 The fIin stocks and St. Paul were strong up to the late afternoon. Their strength was the only reflection in the market of the decision announced af- ter the close Of business on Saturday in favor of the railroads in the Minne- sota rate case. Those who have kept stated their belief today that the principles enunciated by the court were Of primary importance to the railroads and, if sustained by the United States supreme court would have a marked effect upon the future course of railroad legisla ton by states It was said that in several states in the west and south proposed 1egisa- ton of d kind similar to that enacted in Minnesota was being held in abey- ance while the Minnesota case was being adjudicated. There was some buying of standard railroad stocks on account of the decision, but the move Inent was not of sufficient size to counteract the dragging tendency of the market.
 The United States Steel corpora tion's monthly report of thrilled tonnage, showing an increase over the preceding month of less than 5000 tons, throws no new light upon the situation in that industry. being in line with expecta- tons. Latest advices from Pittsburg indicate some falling off in new busi- ness.
 Missouri Pacific continued it's down. ward course today, dropping nearly two points to the lowest price since the middle of January. The weakness of this stock is attributed largely to the prolonged uncertainty as to the future management of the property, no definite developments having followed the announcement that the road had passed into new hands.
