MANY FAVOR PROPOSED
 INTERLEAGUE SERIES.
President Dreyfuss Openly Endorses Herrman's Plan For GA Game Schedule.

Pittsburgh, Nov. 8-If the sugges- tion of Garry Herman is carried out the two big baseball leagues will play an intedleague series, consisting of six ty-four games, after the close of the regular playing season next year. The chairman of the National Baseball commission is diffusing ideas these days with the rapidity of a pinwheel shooting out sparks, and his latest plan, announced in Cincinnati, is to have the American and National leagues play regular season of 112 games. After that each club to take part in eight contests with clubs in the rival organization. For instance, the Giants would take on the eight teams in Ban Johnson's league in turn.
 A number of magnates already ap- prove this plan, which was first in troduced by MT. Herman last year. but when there wasn't time in which to consider it seriously. The National commission chairman intends to again bring his plan before the magnates at their forthcoming meeting.
 President Dreyfuss of the Pittsburgh club openly indorses the scheme. Pres ident Lynch of the National league ad- mits that the plan is being discussed informally, but refuses to express an opinion on the outcome President Far rel of the Highlanders says he has heard of the plan and thinks it has merit. Charles Ebbets of the Brook lyn team also lends a willing ear to the scheme.
 The Herman plan, if put into effect, will do away with the present worlds series. As the big games are now played only two clubs are benefited financially, while fourteen other clubs are forced into idleness though the owners of them are compelled to pay the players salaries until October IS

Philadel
STIFF PRACTICE AHEAD
 FOR PRINCETON ELEVEN
Tigers Preparing for Battle With Vale on Saturday-Students Displeased with Recent Showing.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 10.-Head Coach Cunningham said here tonight that the Princeton football team will go through a stiff week of work in order to put on final touches for the game with Yale on Saturday. Scrim- images will be held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, but on the last two days the work will probably be con- fined to signal and formation drills. The Princeton supporters were not particularly pleased with the showing of the eleven yesterday in the game with New York university and feel that a much larger score should have been rolled up against the New York CTS. The team weakened perceptibly in the second half after presenting a strong attack in the initial period, a fault which cost them dear In the game with Harvard.
 Contrary to the custom of former years, the team will not leave town for a couple of days before the game.
 When it became known that Presi- dent elect Wilson might see the Yale Princeton football game, the demand for tickets rose beyond all previous records, but George A. Murray ath- letic treasurer, announced tonight that the president-e had not applied for tickets and would leave for his vaca- tion before the game takes place.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET FAIRLY ACTIVE.
Closing Was Heavy, Confidence
 Changing to Apprehension.

New York. Nov. 1o.-Au speculation 10 the contrary. the local stock market is very sensitive to the foreign sltua- ton, and any European selling or American securities such as was eX- hibited yesterday finds the profession al interests of Wall street ready to change position and allow prices to sag. fl not decline sharply. The cheer fitness of the carly part of the week exhibited in the cables from London and the continent was offset yester- day by an equally gloomy prospect re- -arding the Balkan settlement. The stability of European sentiment cannot he depended on except from day to day. The opening of the stock market and the period following during the entire session yesterday with little va ration was weak. and prices sold off easily. Considering the half day ses- sion. the market was fairly active, a total of 3se, 800 shares being traded in during the two hours. The closing was heavy and the confidence of traders changed to apprehension, and the bears held full sway as the final quotations showed losses ranging from fractions 10 more than three points. Such ex- h{bitions or strength as were mani tested were of minor importance, and fine market could n0t De cnaraclerl1eu as irregular in it's movements. The To- al conditions offered no valid excuse for a bear movement; on the contrary, the news of the day from commercial and industrial centers was very favor able. The report of the United States Steel corporation showed an increase in thrilled tonnage of 1.042,S74, the largest in its history, or a total of L. 5g42Sl tons. The local money market did not exhibit any unusual strain, and the bank statement displayed a com uaratively favorable movement. Com mercial agency reports continued to be encouraging. and on the whole for the day in an individual sense the stock market shhoUld have absorbed some incentive 10 a betterment. But it's action ignored the home assistance and demonstrated it's professional charac- for as on other days.

BROWN oUTPLAYED YALE.
But Blue Won, 10 to o-FIynn's 40- Yard Run Means of Only Touchdown.

New Haven, Nov. 10-Opportunity, but opportunity of Yale's own making, twice knocked at the door of the blue in her game against Brown Saturday and each time Yale stood on the ready and able. Through out the remainder of the game Yale was distinctly outplayed or at the best merely held her own. The triumph was Yale's by 10 to o.
 The blues first score was the re- ward of a chain of nine plays, three of which were within Browns 1-yard line. After trying in vain to start Browns end from a fake kick for nation, Flynn, in the middle of the third quarter. finally rounded his own right end for a run of forty yards, placing the ball on Browns Is yard line, from which eight line plays against a magnificent defence at last carried the bal lover the line for a touchdown, from which the goal was kicked.
 The blues second score came later as the result of a successful for wal pass of 25 yards. which placed the ball on Browns 20 yard line, from which a sledgehammer attack. right and left, came to naught on Browns 10 yn-d line, but which forced Pumpelly u try drop for goal from the 25 yard line. Pumpelly successfully made the dis tance and scored the goal.
 Only a few plays were necessary to disclose that Yale proposed to win the game. If possible. without showing her range of plays. Elect1ng to play kicking game, her preliminary line plays not only were few in number but also were of the simplest character l.. e. A4A-. zE | l., backs was the familiar square or :an- dem formation. The pass to the run her invariably throughout the game was direct from the center, and the objective point from thls formation most frequently was either inside or outside of the opposing tackle. These two plays occasionally were varied by a quarterback run outside of guard, oftener the right guard

SOUTH RIVER OFFICIALS
MUST Give ANSWER

Elizabeth, Oct. IA rule to show
cause why the borough officials OF
South River should not answer the
questions in the matter of Alexander
Carpensky against the borough, was
granted to Attorney ]. A. Herman,
of this city, by Justice James j. Ber-
gen, sitting in the Supreme Court on
motion Saturday. Carpensky was
badly burned by a hanging electric
light wire in South River in July Of
last year and sued for 5000 dam
ages, contending that the electric
light plant Is under municipal own
ership and that therefore the Off
Gals, the mayor, borough council and
borough clerk, are parties to the
action.
1t is understood that the borough
officials refused to nswer the inter-
rogations which Attorney Herman,
acting under rule of a former court.
sent to them. The case will come up
for trial In New Brunswick October
81, and Attorney Herman will go on
with the trial in spite of the fact that
the rule obtained Saturday is not re-
turnable until the next term of the
Supreme Court.
