New York, April 2.-R. L. Spotts of the New York. Athletic club, who was on the All-American team of trap shooters that won Olympic honors at Stockholm last year, led field of l30 wing shots in the 200 target event at Travers Island today with 183 breaks 10 his credit.

BROWNS NINE UNSETTLED.
Keen Competition for Almost Every
 Position on Team.

The Brown baseball squad enters it's
 last week of practice with nearly ev-
 cry position undecided. The poor
 weather since the team was taken out
 doors, a little over a. week ago, has
 hindered the development of the men greatly, and Coach Harry Pattee has
 not had the opportunity he desired to
 watch the candidates for the various
 positions. some of the men who show
 ed up well in the cage have failed to
 matef1allze in the outdoor practice. Andrews and Durgin are both fighting for first base with the former having shade inc better of the argument, although Drugin's experience last year counts in his favor. Andrews is fast on his feet and is an accurate fielder while Drugin has a, clearer head, as well as the physical advantage of be- ing taller than his opponent Dukette Tewi1i1 and Donahue are all possfbil- ities for the middle base although Donahue is not showing the form ex- hfb1ted by the older men. Dukette who has played second for two years show ed up well in the cage, but Tewhili is his superior thus far in the outdoor work, and will probably have the call when the lineup is announced Friday night.
 Reilly, a veteran. is fairly sure of his place at third. though the close fight over sfaortstop may drive him out CroWther and Johnson are both hot after the shortffeld position, and as both are good men Coach Pattee may decide to award the third base place to the loser in the contest for short stop. Captain Shell is in good form. and will undoubtedly be the mafnstay behind the bat. with Haz1ett and Wet more to help him out.

 Depression of European markets tended to check the advance here. There was some buying of stocks for foreign account, but on smaller scale than during the earlier days of the week. Reviving apprehensions as to the Balkan situation owing to the attitude of Montenegro made it plain that the foreign situat ton still must be taken into consideration. With the passing of the April settlements and easier money conditions it Is expected that some of the semi governmental niniInum discount rates. although no change in the bank of England's rate is expected tomorrow.
 Money was easier here. Call rates relaxed considerably from the high rates of the preceding two days, and quotations for time funds and com III erclal paper were shaded. The change in the money market and rath- CT extensive purchases of stocks here recently by Europe were of effect on foreign exchange rates which were lower. Rumely touched. another low point today, dropping nearly five points to 37 IA. Weakness of this issue was attributed to the statement of a director that the dividend might be passed.
