FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK PRICES DECLINED.
Toward the Close Transactions Game
 Almost to a Halt.

New York, May 2.-It was quite in accordance with rule that today's stock market, after the weeks em- phatic recovery, and with the possi- bility of some turn in the Mexican situation over Sunday, should have de- cllned today. Profit taking by this weeks earlier professional buyers would of itself have caused such reac- ton, in the absence of any aggressive demand from other quarters. Perhaps the really significant fact was the ex- treme dullness of trading, while the reaction was in progress; towards the close the market came almost to a halt. In some stocks the days de- cline reached a full point. but the movement was irregular and il1-dis- tributed, and most of the changes not large. It could not be said that to- days news regarding the Mexican sit uation altered to any great extent the point of view. It was entirely in the expected order of things that awkward obstacles to the programme of the Latin-American mediators should by this time be arising. One may recall the London conferences of the pow erS," and the series of seemingly hope less deadlocks in their efforts to pacify the Balkans.
 The bank statement was in some re- spects better than had been anticipat- ed In others not so good. In it's actual week end showing the gain of cash was much below yesterdays forecasts only $5,200,000, as against the pre- dicted $1S,000,00O. The reason for this is not apparent; but on the other hand. loans have decreased $10, 500, 900, whereas the weeks rise on the stock exchange and some railway note flota- tions had suggested an increase. The upshot is a s6.200,000 increase in the surplus; which, for the banks in the clearing house, is thereby left at a figure $11,600,000 above last year.

The Sachems duplicated their pro- ceedings of the day before in defeat ing the All Stars in a whirlWind fin- iSh on Sunday on the newlygmade bali park, where the old diamond was situ- ated by the score of 8 to z. The larg- est crowd that has ever assembled to witness a ball game since the old state league was here was on hand cheer ing on their champions of the game. The weather conditions were perfect and the field was in tip top order.

 Houlihan and Murphy, the battery of the All Stars, worked like clock work both in the field and at bat each tapping Adams offerings three times, all of which were timely.
 Anderson replaced Mcintyre in the seventh inning and his coming into the game was big change.
 Up to the eight inning Houlihan had the Indian sign on the Sachems hold ing them to only three hits, but in the eight they pounded out six hits net ting six runs, tieing the score.

PASTOR RESIGNS.

At the close of the morning service at the Congregational church Sunday Rev. w H Cane. LL- D., read his res ignation, which follows:
 To the Members and Adherents of the
 Second Congregational Church or
 Griswold, in Jewett City:
 Nearly six years ago I accepted your call to become your pastor. belie1 ed I was led by the Divine Spirit in the act. have endeavored to be falth- full preacher. a helpful pastor and a true friend. You best know whether l have succeeded in these respects or not I have been with you in your sorrows and your joys, trying 10 snare them with you. l find that language Is inadequate to express my apprecla- ton Of your kindness, sympathy, loyal ty and helpfulness, as well as your hearty cooperation during these years I shall always have tender memories of you, and of my life among you The course Isam now taking Is not an easy one. The law of necessity demands It. The nervous strain of nearly 40 years in the ministry, with only compul- sory cessation of six weeks-and that when l first came to you-is bound to assert itself. I think il better for you also to have a change in the pastoral relation A new personality, another type of man, may lead you to larger results. and better attainments than l might be able to do and perhaps real ize my ideals and prayers for you ana your children. l therefore resign the pastorate of this church. to take effect the s1st day of July next.
 I also desire that the church and SAe ecclesiastical society take action on this matter within a reasonable time. I commend you to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you an in heritance among all them which are sanctified.
 In the resignation of Dr. Cane the church and the community lose the as- seciation and the influence of an up- right, honest Christian gentleman In the pulpit few men ever reach mere able attainments. Among his fellow men no one ever met a more genial. sympathetic friend. Dr. Cane is an eptimist and the cheery note of his advice and conversation could never mean but aas thing ar suggest but ena

The Academy baseball team added another victory to their belt Saturday afternoon in defeating the Morgan high school by the score of 13 to 5 on the, campus. The game was loose ly played with errors and bonehead plays on both sides. The Morgan pitchers were too easy for the Acad- emy, everybody got hits except one or two.
 Right from the start the locals dug right in and scored three runs in the first inning and in the third, fifth, sixth and seventh the plate was crossed un- til the run column totaled up to 13
 The visitors succeeded in trespass- ing upon the coveted plate in the first third. fifth and eighth innings
