PROMISES BIG SURPRISE. Deal for Yankee mananership Nearing
 Completion.

After a conference of Colonel Rup- pert and Capt T. L. Huston, who are arranging to purchase the New York club. and Charles A. Comiskey, presi- dent of the Chicago Americans, and Mir Johnson, the American league president said:
 We did not discuss the price to be paid for the Yankees, but did talk about the managership and some changes in the lineup which Ruppert must have settled in order to con- sider the team. I will not name these changes, but can say that if the deal for the manager being considered is closed, it will be a pleasant surprise to the baseball public'
 Mir. Johnson did not explain his statement that changes in the lineup of the New Yorks would have to be made before Colonel Ruppert would consider the team. Colonel. Ruppert announced several days ago that he had already purchased the club and that the deal would be completed with the fixing of a price which. he said would be about $45O,000 Colonel Rup- pert refused to discuss the days meet ing.

The city of Newark is out for the Olympic games of 1916. originally scheduled for Berlin, a city that Is now considered out of the question on &C., count of the war which is ravaging Europe. Members of the committee of 100 appointed by Mayor Haussitng to arrange for the celebration Of the 259th anniversary of the settlement of Newark are working to have the Olympic games held in. that city as part of the celebration.
 The subject was brought up at a meeting O. the committee in charge of the celebration. Dr. Joseph Kussy preached the subject and in his re- marks stated that he had been inform ed by pr. Alvin kraenzlein, who had given up his position as trainer of the German athletes, that it would be inn Berlin because Of the war. It was Dr. kfaenzleiu who suggested that the games be held in Newark, where the proposed celebration would draw thou sands of people and help the success of the Olympics.
 The proposition was considered se- riously and former Governor Franklin Murphy, the chairman of the mayors committee, said that the committee on athletics was already considering the proposition and will make the strong est possible efforts to have the games held at Newark.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAY MARKET IRREGULAR. Tracing in Securities Was Lighter
 Than Any Day Since Resumption.

New York, Dec. 19.-Trading in securities today was relatively lighter than at any other session since the recent resumption of business on the stock exchange Some of the more important issues were not quoted at all and the speculative favorites changed hands in very small lots. The tone was steady at the outset, from which it became irregular, with nomi- nal losses at the close.
 The decision of the interstate com merce commission granting partial increases to railroays in the eastern territory was again the main topic of discussion, with considerable diversity of opinion as to it's real significancefi The fact that the roads had been de- nied the right to increase rates in commodities which form the bulk of their tonnage caused disappointment Apart from this, however, Wall street was disposed to view the outcome as a further indication of the federal governments recognition of the needs Of "big business"
 Features of the bank statement in- cluded a morerate loan construction. g. substantial cash gain and a nominal addition to the already large excess reserves.
 Bonds were firm at the opening but lost ground later. Total sales (par yalue) S662, 2,0O0.
 Government bonds were without material change, on small trading.

+ARvARD's SCHEDULE
IS EXPLAINED.
Yale Victory and Not championship is
 Objective.

Harvard seeks no intercollegiate championship in football, and makes no pretense at trying for the title or supremacy in any of its games, ac- the Harvard football committee, in an article on The Football Season of 1914" in the current number of the Harvard Alumni Bulletin
 Light is also thrown by the Harvard chairman on the moves made by the Crimson management in making up it's schedule each year, dropping some teams and taking on others. The
 whole scheme is to build a schedule of games that will lit the purposes of the
 team that Harvard has in any given
 season, according to MT. Farley ana not to take on certain elevens with a view to determining the intercollegiate or eastern football championship
 The Crimson believes that football
 games should be played on basis of friendly competition rather than as a means of determining a championship.
 And the chief aim of the Harvard team each season is to defeat Prince ton and Yale, it's main opponents, re- gardleSs of the outcome of the pre-
 hminary contests. If it is possible to
 win the early games and then come
 through with the big ones, so much the better.
 The chairman of the Harvard foot

 seize the championship each year, al though for the past three football sea- sons Harvard has been given the first honors. The winning of the champion ship by Haughton's team is always a welcome climax to the season, but Iio
 consideration is given to the desire to gain the championship. On these grounds the Harvard chairman eX-
 cuses the Crimson schedule makers for emitting other big teams from the list Dartmouth, for insJance-for if there is no championship being sought it is not incumbent on Harvard to engage in games with other possible contend CTS for the title in order to make the winning of the championship definite. The reason for Harvard's hard l schedule last season was to prevent l the veteran members of the team from l becoming Overconfident, according tC l Mr. Farley, and so games were ar ranged with Washington and Jefferson l Tufts, Penn State and Michigan to take any surplus cockinesS out of the
 players and to make them realize tha! they had to work hard to come i through in their more important games with Princeton and Yale. It worked all right.
 With this explanation of the 1914 l football schedule, it can be seen that 1 there may be some excuse for the ! dropping of Michigan from the Grim
 son schedule in 1915. The team oi which Eddie Mahan will be captain is l to be minus a goodly collection of vet | erans, and the stiff competition tC i keep the Harvard players from feel ing overconfident around the middle 1 of next season will not be needed SC 1 badly. In fact, Harvard will have tC 1 play teams of a slightly lower calibrt | if the idea as disclosed by Mir. Farley
 is to be adhered to- in order that the more amateurish combination which 1 Haughton will try to develop next sea son may not bite off moro than it car l chew in the way of scheduled game:

cLEARY ACQUITTED OF
 FIRST DECREE MURDER
Jury Was Out Six Hours-vote Stood
 to 4.

New York, Dec. 20-Willfam V Cleary, town clerk of Haverstraw and democratic leader in RockIand county. was acquitted by a jury in the su- preme court here fast night of the charge of murder in the first degree on which he was tried for the killing of Eugene NJ. Newman, his son-in-law
 Announcement of the verdict was the signal for a demonstration by Cleary's friends, who had remained in the court room while the jury was deliberating.
 When the jury sent word that 1t had agreed Cleary was brought in from the jail adjoining the court house. His appearance showed the effects of the strain he had been under after the jury's retirement.
 Mrs. Cleary. who was in the court when the announcement came, was overcome by a nervous attack. Her extreme paIeness and evident state of deep agitation attracted District At torney Gagan's attention. He request ed that she be taken from the room and she was escorted out by Cleary's brother, Ambrose
 When the jury led in it was appar- ent what the verdict would be. Fore man Frank Heddy. when asked what the jury had found. almost shouted the words Not guiity!"
 Cheers and applause followed the announcement Cleary seemed dazed at first and unable to comprehend the significance of the jury's finding. When he finally collected himsef he asked for permission to thank the jury. It was granted and he shook hands with each one of the twelve men. saying: 'Gentlemen, I thank you for your merciful and righteous verdictp
 Cleary immediately afterward hur- ried out of the court room and joined his wife. who already had been ap- prised of the verdict. They embraced and each wept silently for a. moment

Connie Mack Wants to Restore liar
 mony in His Team.

It is an open secret that Connie Mack felt compelled to rid the Ath- letics of Eddie Collins to restore some measure of harmony to the team. And it is generally understood that the discord which Connie seeks to alleviate was caused by Eddie Collins iH-ad- vised newspaper articles in which he disclosed team secrets, and thus, in the opinion of his fellow players, put them under 9 handicap, says the Sporting News
 It is not the first time that a ball player has put himself in bad because of his literary efforts. The authorities of the American league recognized the evil and sought to suppress it, but evidently MT Collins held himself above authority and proceeded with his labors as an author.
 The results have been brought home to him and now perhaps he will heed the advice and warning. given him by one of the beSt-known Chicago sport ing writers, who in baseball editorial has put the matter up squarely to both Collins and President Comiskey. Col lins is asked to give his decision-is he going to continue risking the sue cess of his team by playing author, or is he going to give it his undivided efforts for success by playing ball
 Collins is a bright fellow. he can not fail to see the point. but Collins is also a stubborn fellow and has sometimes shown evidence of egotism that threw him off his balance and those qualities may interfere with him yielding the point.
 But it is to be hoped that even MT. Collins can learn a lesson. If he is not an apt pupil we predict that he will find Charley Comiskey an em- pIoyer with more decided opinions and more firmness in enforcing them than was the easy-going Connie Mack
