WATERFO TURNS DOWN ROAD PROPOSITION
Votes Against Spending State Money on New London Hartford Turnpike

Waterford voters in town meeting Saturday afternoon turned down the proposition to eXpend the state appro- priation of SS,0o0 on the New London Hartford turnpike. No recommenda- tiOn was made as to where to spend the money The resolution opposing the expending of the appropriation on the trunk line highway was introduced by Attorney John C. Geary of New London and it was adopted by a vote of 79-4S.
 First SeIectman A H. Lanphere pre- sided at the meeting which was held shortly after ? o'clock. The matter was discussed about an hour several speaking for and against using the money on the Hartford turnpike.
 At the meeting of the New London County Improvement league in New London on Friday, H. s. Houston of Salem, one of the directors of the league, made some breezy remarks on the subject of roads.
 MT. Houston said it was all right to talk about developing the farm and increasing it's prOductiveness, but what was the use of it all if the main thing ortation-remained in such a condition that produce could not reach the market. He said the road from Salem to New London was the rotten he knew of, and that it required four hours of the toughest going imagina- ble to reach New London.
 And after all that has been done" concluded MT Houston, after all the towns along the route have signffied their desire to improve the Hartford turnpike and secure the aid of the state in making it a trunk line suit able to all kinds of travel, then the towns of Waterford and Montville sud- denly decide to hold out on the project. What we need is a chance to bring our products to the market. Wen take care of raising them. Talk about land being scarce. Why I'll guarantee to give every man within the sound of my voice 50 acres of land in Salem that is fit for cultivation and the equal of that on which MT. Hale raises his famous peaches. And after that therell be enough land to spare in Salem. Give us the way to get out and we'll attend to the land end"
 In connection with the county i'm . provement league, MT. Houston de- clared he was the man from Missouri and there were things he wanted bad " to be shown. He wanted to know for one thing when the farmers and dairymen were likely to get this coun- i. ty director Of whom so much had been heard. He said spring was coming rapidly along and that if anything was 1 to be done this season it must be done right away. He believed the plan was all right, but in order to be good for anything it must come right down to brass Jacks and accomplish something.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
NEW HAVEN GAINS.
Leads Late Rally in Generally De-
 pressed Market.

New York, March 29.-F'ollowing the gradual decline of security prices Of the last few days. Q rather brisk sell ing movement started yesterday short ly after the opening, caught few stop orders. Not much long stock came out however, and in the later trading prices hardened on covering. Trans actions were in a small volume of only about 10000 shares. The bond mar Let was dull and narrow, with little price movement, and the business of the day amounted to only about $S00,- 900 par value.
 The London market again was quiet, consols making a slight advance. Am erican shares in London closed irreg- ular, and price changes were ins1g- nificant. Here stocks opened shade down from Fridays close. The early bear raid depressed market leaders to the low prices of the week. Little out side liquidation developed, however, and a large part of the early losses was made up on closing out short lines over the week end
 Steel, Reading, Union Pacific and Lehigh bore the brunC of the early pressure. Steel yielded nearly a point to 6 5-S, closing 3-8 off on the day. Reading touched 164 5-S, but rallied to 165 1-S down. Union Pacific drop ped 3-4 to 157 3-4, but made up 3-S of the loss Lehigh Valley declined al most a point, closing at 143 If, g. de- weak, the common touching l 1-2 and the preferred, at 5-S, reaching its lowest level for a score of years.
 New Haven led in the late upturn, raIIying to 67 7-S, a point above it's early low mark and making a fraction al gain on the day. with 8 final price of 69 S-S. Studebaker, on fairly ac tive trading. advanced to 32 a gain of over a point. Panhandle" on a single transaction, went up over points, showing that difficulty persists in GOV ering short sales made when the divi- dend was cut.
 General news of the day, though of little immediate market effect added to the general depression

FEDS AND GIANTS CLASH.
Giants Play in Baltimore When the
 Outlaws Open Season.

The Federal league in Baltimore is making a determined effort to arouse public opinion against the New York Giants and compel McGraw's club to cancel the game which they haVe scheduled with the Baltimore club of the International league on April IS, the date of the opening of the Federal league season. This information came to Secretary John B. Foster Saturday and he was very outspoken against the scheme to freeze the Giants out of Baltimore on that day.
 Baltimore is greatly excited over the Federal league. With the coming of the outlaws the city sees itself again becoming a major league city, as it was in the old Oriole days. The popu- larity of the new league has been worked up so we'll in Baltimore that the state legislature has declared the opening day, April IS, a holiday, and all the banks, business houses, public buildings and schools will be closed.

TIP TOPS BUSY.
Bradley Drives His Men at Top Speed
 at Columbia.

With Bradley's tourists back home again, the entire squad of Brooklyn Feds were out for practice Saturday and the red hot sun that beat down upon the hustliug players gave Brad ley a chance to drive his men at top speed at Columbia, N c.
 For three hours the squad was busy in all branches of the game, and the trip back to the hotel was welcome. The afternoon was spent in idleness, as the university was using the ball park and the Tip Tops were shut out from doing any work.
 Trade rumors are many, but noth- ing has been done as yet as far as Seaton, the absentee, is concerned. The profit sharing plan of the Wards has made a big hit with the players camp ing at Columbia

of the annual series between the two. colleges, if one is necessary, will be played in Boston on Saturday, June 20.
 In other years the game has always been played in New York or Brooklyn. Last June it was played in Brooklyn. The game will be a great attraction for Harvard men at Fenway Park, but will hardly be as well attended by Yale partisans as it was in New York
 A third game is almost always nec- essary in the Harvard Yale series; it 1t very unusual for either team to win both the first and second game. The first game will be played this year in New Haven on June 16, and the second game in Cambridge~on June IT.
 President Tener of the National league has consented to name the um- pires for the series.

Captain Ira Thomas, who has been in active charge of the Athletics, is out with a statement that the worlds champions are stronger than at any time last season, and will walk away with the pennant without trouble. lie says:
 we haven't any youngsters likely to show up as stars. but our old men are strong enough to offset any possible weakness in the young material The outfield and infield remain intact. But there are improvements in the battery that ought to give us strength.
 ''Of the catchers, Schang, I believe, will be just twice as good as he was last season. He not only will be a better catcher but a harder hitter. As for Lapp, he is sure to improve over his game of last year"
