LEAGUE
 SOUNDING NoRWAlk
Bloomfield Seems to Lack Interest for
 League Ball.

Norwark may yet become member of the Atlantic League. Matters are nearer 8 head in that direction than ever before. At meeting of the At 1antic league owners last fall the proposition was talked over but the other managers of the league with the sole exception of Manager Landgraf of the Matters. did mot appear to be greatly interested in the matter. and nothing came of it. says the 'sDanbury News" Norwalk on its part displayed only . 1uke-Warm sentiment toward the proposition of having a league team in that city, and when the mat ter of putting up a guarantee of f1,000 for the season came up the Nor walk capitalists suffered from frozen extrenities.
 Now Andy Coakley. the new owner of the Bloomfield club, has taken the matter in hand. and has written to Gus Knorr. manager of a semi pro- team in South NorwaIk and evidently the moving spirit in the baseball world in that place, to sound out his senti- ments in the matter. Coakley took over the Bloomfield team a few days ago when the previous managers drop ped out on thc eve of the opening Of the league .>eason. Coak1ey evil dently does not like. the looks of Bloomfield as q league city much bet ter than the previous managers did, and he is seeking another city for his fast aggregation of New Workers.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET DuLLEsT OF YEAR.
Total Transactions Amounted to Lit
 tie More Than s3,ooo Shares.

New York, May 26.-The session on the stock exchange today was the dullest thus far this year, falling con- siderably behind last Friday, when to- tai transactions aggregated little more than 93.000 shares. In fact to find @ parallel for today's stagnation, it is necessary to go back to mid summer or last year, when the output for a Saturday, or a half session was 6S,- 800 shares The day began with an ir- regular tendencyNand finished in much the same way. Few representative is- sues made more than a fractional change, the only notable exceptions being Canadian Pacific and New Ha- ven, which were up and down a point, respectively.
 the special class, however, the varix ous issues of the International Mer- cantile Marine company making fur ther response to yesterdays favorable decision of the United States supreme court in the matter of the Titanic dis aster. General Motors rose over six points, but offsetting weakness was shown by other inactive shares. in cluding Rumelys, Studebaker Prefer red, Texas Company and few more obscure issues
 Gould issues were again heavy, the bonds of some of the railroads in that group adding to the previous days losses. Selling of these securities was again ascribed to foreigners, but deal ings for European account in the stock list were too small to exercise any influence.
 General news of the day included another engagement of gold for Paris and some encouraging crop advices. Otherwise the day wes devoid of de- velopments bearing upon the situa- ton.
 Bonds as whole reflected ithe weakness shown by the Goulds. but some of the speculative issues moved widely. Total transactions, par value amounted to S2,125,0O0

CREWS MAKE CLEAN SWEEP
Harvard varsiy Defeated by One Boat Lensh-Freshmen Lose by New London Boy in crmson Boat Col lapsed Others Exhausted.

Cambridge, Mass, May 26 6-The oarsmen of Cornell rowing their sec .ond intercollegiate race in four days, swept the Charles river tonight in the annual regatta with the Harvard crews
 The Cornell varsity led over the line by slightly more than one boat length the freshmen ended their race with an advantage over the Harvard young- sters of about two, lengths.
 The official times for the races, which were a mile and en-eights
 Varsity Cornell g minutes. 5S S.5 seconds.
 Harvard, minutes, AZ 3-5 seconds.
 Freshmen-Cornell, minutes, 56 seconds.
 Harvard ten minutes one second.
 Harvard Men Fatigued.
 The Cornell men finished the varsity contest a tired lot, but able to sit up and cheer. The Harvard men seemed more fatigued, several were exhausted and one, Charles E. Schall, of New London, Conn, collapsed and had to have medical attention. Captain Key holds of Harvard was forced to lie on the floor of the launch during the return up river.
 The waters of the Charles river ba- sin were kicked Into white tops by a cross wind and the crews were great ly handicapped.
 Harvard started at 40, and the Cor nell stroke oar set for his crew a. long stroke that apparently had greater power behind it for with one third the course covered Cornell had pushed into a slight lead. Harvard struggled to close, the gap and became ragged as a result. Butythe roughness soon worked off, the Crimson steadied into a faster stroke, and at Harvard Bridge, which IS just short of the half way, had a little advantage.
 fho of f1,o h,-id r, a ithacans took new life They emerged from the shadows even with their op- -ponents; then, exhorted by their di- minutive coxswain, set out to gain a lead.
 Cornell Stroke Powerful.
 The freshman race was only a va riation of the same story. Cornell got the lead, used the same slow powerful stroke that proved effective for the varsity and fought off attempts by the higher -speeded crimson stroke to nose out an advantage.

Coach Harry Hillman of the big Green team that is slated as the win- ner of the New England Intercolle- giates at the Harvard Stadium, is not in spirits quite as cheerful as he has been in the habit bf assuming the past few days. The cause of his dejection is the injuries that two of his charges have sustained that will effectually put them out of the running for the places that the paper phopbesies had given them

Defeated Cornwall in Close Ma+el
 Saturday.

Tn one of the closest rifle matches ever shot on Cornwall rifle range the Connecticut Agricultural college rifle team defeated the crack rife team of the New York Military academy by two points Saturday, May 23. at Cornwall on Hudson. The academy boys started off in the lead in the be- ginning and then the Aggies settled down to business and cut down the lead, and then for the rest of the af- ternoon it was a.grueing contest or nerve between the two teams The two teams seemed to be about equal and no weak spots could be found on either side Finally with last man up on each side, Palmer of the Connecti- cut Aggies' team saved the day by in orea-sing the lead of his team by two points and thus winning the match. Three positions were shot in order prone, sitting and standing. Each team consisted of five men, the distance shot at 200 yards, using military rifles. The final scores were c. A. c. 497, N. Y. M. A 4S5, out of possible score of 52S.
