MINORS OBJECT TO
 TEN DAY CLAUSE. Do Not Wish to Carry Useless Players on Payroll.

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 12,-Ffve com nittees were announced by President Sexton of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues during today's session. One committee was assigned the problem of devising a way whereby a uniform style of contract can be prepared for players of the five different classes of leagues affiliated with the organization, and is headed by President Leavitt of the Oakland club of the Pacific Coast League.
 In a communication to the conven- ton, the national commission made the suggestion of uniformity. The greatest obstacle now apparent, baseball men say, is the possible insertion of a clause requiring 8 player to be given notice of release ten days prior to the time the release can be made effective. It is understood that Class A leagues are willing to work under this plan, but those in B, c and D do not favor the idea of having to carry and pay a useless player for ten days.
 President Tearney of the Three 1 league started 8 movement for a re- form in the system of drafting players, and was supported in a fight against the practices of major league clubs in claiming 8 large number of players and then making cancellations of the drafts It was voted that there shall be no such procedure by National asso- citation clubs
 During the discussion President Drey- fuss of the Pittsburg National league club charged that violations of rules by the national commissioners thecselVes were responsible for the trouble that had occurred
 Committees will commence reporting tomorrow morning, and it is said that the business of the convention will be completed during the day,
 Secretary Farrell read to inc eohVeR- ton today the list of requests from the players fraternity, No action was talk en, it being left to the committee on contracts to formulate a course of pro eedure to be submitted to the conven- ton for ratification. No objection to sending a committee into conference with the national committee and rep resentatives of the players will be made.

STRONG FOOTBALL INTEREST
 IN THE METROPOLIS
Record Demand for Seats at Army
 Navy Battle.

New York, Nov. 12-With the first of the two big football games to be played in this city scheduled for Sat urday, local interest in the gridiron sport Is rapidly rising to the standard set by college towns. Despite the oVershadowing effect of the Yale Princeton, game at New Haven, there Is big demand for tickets for the Carlisle Indian Dartmouth contest at the Polo grounds next Saturday and it is apparent that the general fol- lower of football is not underestimate Ing the importance of this meeting between these two powerful and bril- Hantly performing elevens.
 Great as is the interest in this game 1t falls short of the general enthusiasm and ticket demand in connection with the meeting of the army and navy teams cn Saturday, Nov, 29. Because of the national aspect of the annual contest between the elevens of the two United States training academies the enormous seating capacity of the Polo grounds stadium has been found Co be wholly unequal to the demand for coupons. Although it was believed that the move from Franklin field, Philadelphia, to the baseball park in this city would solve the problem of seating all those who desired to wit ness the football battle between the soldiers and sailors such has not proved to be the case.
 Demand Exceeds Seating Capacity.
 With approximately 45,000 seats available for the two academies, their supporters and the general public, 1t was thought there would be no neces- sity for returning any applications for seats. This idea was quickly proved erroneous for with the game still more than two weeks away the ticket de- Ynand exceeds the seating capacity of the park by many thousands. SeCre- tary John B. Foster of the New York baseball club estimates that close to 75,000 seat coupons could have been sold had it been possible to accom- modate such & record gathering of football enthusiasts.
 Would Number Players.
 In view of the fact that the average New Yorker is unfamiliar with the personnel of the teams which will fig ure in these two games an effort is being made to have all the competing players numbered in order that there may be no doubt as to the players making touchdowns, runs and tackles. Coach Cavanaugh and the Dartmouth college athletic council have consent ed to have the Dartmouth players numbered for Saturdays game. Coach Glenn Warner of the Carlisle Indians states that the Carlisle team cannot adopt this innovation Dartmouth is the first big college team to adopt this numbering plan in the east, al- though 1t proved Successful in the west and in eastern schoolboy games If it proves a successful and appre- ciated move In the Dartmouth Indian game the army and navy eievens will be urged to adopt the same method of Identification for the closing game of the season on Nov. 29.

Steamer Saved by Reachina.

Chicago, Nov 12.-The steamer Illinois was saved from the recent storm in an unusual way, it was learn ed today, when Capt. John A. Stuffel- beam brought her into this port this afternoon, three days late. When the storm struck the vessel Saturday the skipper ran into South Manitou Island Sound, in Lake Michigan There was no harbor or safe anchorage, and the nose of the steamer was run against the beach, and for 29 hours the en- zines were kept going just enough to maintain this position and avoid drift ing broadside to the shore

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
NEW HAVEN AT TT.
Railroad Stock Strikes New Low
 Low Record but Rallies Later.


 New York, Nov. 2-Improvement l in speculative sentiment. both at home and abroad, was reflected today in a general rise in stocks. It was diff cult to trace a direct connection be- l tween the change in sentiment and the days news, which presented no essen t1aily fresh aspect There was a gen eral impression that the outlook for peaceful solution of the Mexican prob lem was brighter. and the market con- gequently was haInpered to 8 lesser degree by the restraining influence of this factor Mexican securities moved up sharply in London, and there was a substantial rise heSe in National Railways of Mexico second preferred
 An important influence was the con- viction that a substantial rally was due after the DrOtracted period of weakness through which the market has passed The upturn of yesteP- day demonstrated that the shorts were in d vulnerable position, and it was mparatively easy to force a further retreat of the bears today. The weak ness of LAe present position however, lies in the fact that the reduction in prices has failed to inspire any con siderable amounts of outside buying. Today's Upturn apparently was based almost entirely on professional opera tions.
 The better feeling abroad was of direct influence on this market, on ac- count of liberal buying for foreign ac- count. Berlin took Canadian Pacific and Paris the coppers. London's pur- chases were widely distributed, being estimated at 300o0 shares.
 Trading was most active in the first part of the day, and it became dull after the immediate requirements of the shorts had been met. The market thereafter maintained it's firm tone well, in spite of few weak spots. Mexican Petroleum broke nearly five points on the report that the quarterly dividend has been passed. New Ha- ven touched new low record at 77, but rallied later

cAPSlZED BRIGHTER
 A CANADIAN VESSEL
Such is the Opinion Reached by Ma
 rins Investigators.

Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 12-After working desperately since this morn ing in an unsuccessful attempt to iden- tify positively the derelict freighter which lies bottom side up in stormy Lake Huron, eight miles northeast of here, marine men returned to Port Huron tonight Most of them said they were convinced that the boat is the Canadian package freighter Re- gina.
 Little credence is given here to the report from Goderich Ontario that seven bodies found on the shore of Lake Huron below Grand Bend were sailors on the steamer Charles S.. Price, reported lost, The Price may have sunk, marine men admit, but 1t is believed the bodies were of mem bers of the crew of the Regina.
 A report this afternoon from Port Frank. Ont, stated that eight more frozen bodies were washed ashore in a Iifeboat there today. Wires are down and the identity of the lifeboat could not be learned.

Vale Plays Ineffective Against Crimson

Cambridge, Mass, Nov 12,-YaIe's best formation proved wanting today against Harvard's readjusted eleven, the Crimson varsity repu1Sing every attack of the second team which was using Yale plays, A little puzzled at first by the Yale version of the Minne- sota slaift, the varsity soon analysed the formation and was never at 8 loss for defense
 This pretended battle with Yale was the first part of long, hard scriIn- mage session. The afternoon ended with 20 minutes of practice against Team B, the substitutes, in which Hardwick, playing his new position at end for the varsity, made the only score He put the ball over for a touchdown when the substitutes 1nuff- cd a, kick on the 20 yard line,
 Twice during the afternoon Brdckley failed on attempts at field goals, once from the S5 yard line and later from the 45 yard mark.
