FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET STRONG, ACTIVE. Industrial and Equipment Issues Most
 Prominent Features.

New York, April 2S.-Trading in stocks today presented some unique features, in the sense that activity and strength were most pronounced in To- cal fractions and few of the indus trial and equipment issues whose com panies are now furnishing large sup plies to foreign belligerents. Not until the final hour did the usual specula- tive favorites participate in more than small degree in the days operations. Interborough-Metro common and preferred and Westinghouse over shadowed all other issues during the first four hour, individual transactions in the latter ranging from 1000 to al- most 5000 shares, the stock closing with a net gain of nine points. Ad- .vances of two to three points in trac- tions were associated with the pro- posed capital readjustment of the In terborough company, which promises successful consummation.
 Shares of the General Electric, New York Air Brake and the Locomotive and kindred concerns rose three to six points, while motors and more iso- lated specialties trailed along to the extent of two to three points.
 The general advance of the last hour, among the leaders. followed an an nouncement that the $40,000,000 of Baltimore and Ohio 1-2 per cent. notes, offered by 8 banking syndicate earlier in the day, had been oversub- scribed. A few important stocks fail ed to share in the general late recov- cry, but a strong undertone prevailed at the close, even secondary railroads advancing spiritedly.
 United States Steel was in fair de- mand throughout the session, yester- days quarterly report being accepted as strong proof of improved trade con- ditions. This was supported by state ments from trade authorities to the effect that many new orders for equip ment were coming into the market. Total sales of stocks amounted to S94, 900 shares. In addition to the Bal timore and Ohio note issue, it was understood that the Pennsylvania and New York Central roads were complet- ing the details connected with forth coming hotations, presumably in the form of bonds. New York Central debenture sizes were the feature of the largest bond market in several years, contributing about 75 per cent to the days total (par value) of $9,600,- 900.
 There were also heavy private sales of bonds made by banking interests to large corporate investors.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call

NO LEAGUE BASEBALL
 AT NEW LONDON
All Players Signed by Planters Dis
 posed Of.

There is but slight, if any change today in the base ball situation for the Eastern association. In fact if there is any baseball to be played with New London in the league it. will be by less competent players than were in the game a year ago for practically every player that Manager McCann signed for this season has been dis posed of by sale to clubs in other leagues. McCann was to have re- ceived a message from President O'Rourke Wednesday as to whether the season with Class clubs would start May 12, but that message has not been received here as Manager Nc Cam was out of town.
 There is absolutely no question as to baseball being a dead issue this year in New London for provided clubs enough can be gotten together, within the next few days, they will not furnish the article of ball that New Londoners care to support.
 Next year the game will be re- vived and probably without any of the Clarkin, Carey and Cameron material; and a faster league than ever will be the result. New Lon doners will have to content them selves with no ball, or an amateur class club, until another season comes around and then a club of In ternational league speed is predicted It would not be surprising if New London would be in that league.

these cars will operate under a guar antee that their gasoline consumption will not exceed a gallon for every 25 miles travel. This, according to De- Lisser, is not difficult thing, because one of the strongest selling points on the car is the unusual fuel economy of its French motor.
 The Virginia Sstreet Railway com pany will build garages for the main tenance of the 100 cars, and it is certain that the first hundred will be followed by other cars in the very near future.
 New York does not appear to have been the center of activity of the motor car thief in 1914, to judge from a compilation of figures on this sub ject made by Insurance Field in it's automobile edition. The returns from 559 cities show that 6,361 cars were stolen in the course of the year. Be- tween 20 and 25 per cent. of these thefts were reported from one city alone, Chicago. There 1,415 cars were stolen. Detroit with 896 cars comes next after Chicago. Los Angeles is third with $50 stealings, Spokane, Wash, and San Francisco report 360 thefts, each, coming right after Cleve- land with 375.
 Europeans are watching closely the performance of American cars in the great war and upon the service they give depends the demand for the vari- ous American makes when the war is over.
