COACH OF YALE
 CREW ANGRY AND
 WANTS TO RESIGN

Serious trouble has developed within the coaching camp of the Yale navy and as a, consequence Guy Nickalls, the English coach, nettled and dis couraged, resigned Monday night and expressed a determination to return to England. Ever since the sad show ing of the Yale crew on Lake Cay uga Saturday. when 1t came in a bad third to Cornell and Princeton, there has been some lively discussions among the men interested in Yale row. ing much of which crystalized into criticism of Niekalls' method of rig ging and demand for the trial of a change.
 Itsis understood that after the race Saturday a Yale graduate standing up- on the float at Lake Cayuga asked Coach Charles Courtney of Cornell what he thought was the matter with the Yale crew and that he replied that much of the trouble was in the rigging of the shell and particularly the thoIe. ssoar1ock.'' the English style, which the Yale crew has been using under Nickalls, the swivel lock, having been discarded.
 Therefore. looking to the patching up of some sort of truce, secret con- ference of the Yale rowing and ath- letic authorities was held in New York last night. Head Coach Richard Armstrong, Coach NickalIs, Giannini, Captain Denegre, Walter Camp, Ya1e's foremost advisor, and several others were at this conference but what was done toward strengthening out the tangie is held secret for the moment.

PONIES JOLT
 TUCKEY AND
 LOCALS LOSE

] Concerning the game in Springfield yesterday the Springfield Republican says:
 The Ponies had on their lighting togs yesterday and defeated Bridge port at League park. after making a fine uphill struggle. The final score
 was 6 to 4. Both teams played fast snappy ball and the game was wit
 messed by a large crowd.
 Both Burch and Tuckey were hit
 quite hard, but the local twirler had l a little the better of the argum ent.
 Both pitchers received good support, l fielding features being turned in by Stow. Gleason, Senno and Swander. Aubrey and Hallnan were the big 1 hitters for the visitors.
 Bridgeport broke the ice in the sec ond inning when it got a,man around l without the aid of a single hit. Tier ney drew pass and went to second on Manager Boultes' sacrifice He moved to third on Aubrey's out and scored when Groh jugg1ed Ems Ebounder.
 The enemy then got one in the fifth. Hal1n1an walked and Senno sin- gled to center. Tierney moved them both along on sacrifice. Manager "Jake'' appeared again and took a, healthy swing at the ball. To his sur prise and everybody e1se's the ball rolled weakly along the third base line. Then began race between Burch and HaHman Just as the lat ter was sliding into the plate, Burch scooped the ball into the air. It pop ped over Pratt's glove though, and rolled a short distance behind. See- ing this, Senno madefa, mad dash for homes but failed to naakeAits by a few feet. Pratt by a quick throw caught. Boultes mapping off first and ended the
 inning.

There exist two dangers of allowing

Of the Rural New Yorker. In the first
place she is less apt to conceive when
mated. and in the second place she is
apt to go dry for a long period after
the mating is finally made in case she
does settle. It is customary In large
dairies. where the calves are not an

cows to freshen once in fifteen or six

Ordinarily. however. for dairy farm
practices it is much more desirable to
mate them SO that they will freshen

THE JAPANESE WANT
AMERICAN COTTON

Japan will take this year as soon as
physically possible more American cot
ton than ever before.
The lowest estimates Of her American
cotton requirements are 100000 bales.
Japanese agents have instructions to
purchase the cotton at 9la cents or bet
ter. The aggregate purchase is in the
neighborhood of $l00,000000, and will
use more than 10 per cent of the entire
American production.
1t is believed in Wall street that
England is aiding Japan in financing
the huge purchases. Sixty and ninety
day cotton bills in yen have made their
appearance in New York, but the bank
ers would have none Of them. The
bills were changed to sight bills in
order to be financed more conveniently.
Another reason for the sight bin
transaction lies in the fact that Japan
wants early delivery.
Last year Japan used 100000 bales
Of cotton in all, but obtained only
100000 from America.
Her total requirements Of all cotton,
including Egyptian, this year are esti-
mated at 100000 bales
Japan purpose in purchasing cotton
is to capture the trade in piece goods
with China, which has been handled
largely by Austria and Germany.
Austria before the outbreak Of the
war, was laying down piece goods in
Shanghai as good as American piece
goods and better than Japanese for one
half the price. In consequence Aus
tria s piece goods trade with China was
enormous.
For the trade abandoned by Austria
and Germany, Japan and the United
States will divide the competition.
Japan is taking the jump on us and
is planning to go after the Chinese
trade with rush.
