YALE-HARVARD WILL ROW UPSTREAM
According Announcement by F. Valentine ChapPen Chairman of Arrangements Committee-Varsity Race Scheduled Between 4:3O and P M., Friday, June 25- Morning Races Will be Either Four Dared Varsity Event or Substitute Freshman Eight.

New London, Conn, March 23.-The 1e-Harvard varsity eight-oared race will be rowed upstream on the Thames river between 4.30 and p. m- on Fri day, June 25, according to an an nouncement today by F. Valentine Chappell, chairman of the committee on arrangements. The tide in the river will be at ebb at 1.30 p. na., and at flood at 7.37 that evening, and it will be necessary to have the race rowed at 4.30 if advantage is to be taken of good water at the upper end of the course. Should a postponement of this race be made until the next day, it would have to be rowed upstream also, if set for the afternoon, as the tide serves for downstream racing only in the morn ing.
 The morning races about 1915 will be either a four-oared varsity event or one of substitute freshmen eights, from Red Top to the navy yard, and the freshman event from the navy yard to the drawbridge.
 The varsity race last year was rowed upstream, as it was in 1891. 1905, 1907, 1908 and 1909. Water conditions for an upstream race have never hereto fore been as good as those which sur round a downstream race. MT. Chap sell says that the committee faces once again the disadvantage of a race which requires extra policing of the course and which to a certain extent is un- satisfactory to a portion of the public which goes to see it. The tide, how ever does not wait upon the desires of the committee and the latter must take the tide as it finds it.
 MT. Chappell has made arrange meEts with the railroad company for observation trains along the river banks.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STRONG, ACTIVE MARKET. Considerably More Than Half Mill lion Shares Were Dealt In.

New York, March 23.-The strong est, broadest and most active market session of the year to date was wit messed today, dealings being on the basis of considerable more than 100,- 900 shares for each of the five hours. The most significant feature lay in the fact that standard stocks resumed their wonted leadership, while the specialties and other non-dividend is- sues which recently formed the bulk of the daily trading were relegated to comparative obscurity.
 Transcontinentals, grangers and trunk lines recorded gains of one-t to 2 1-2 points and Reading made full re- covery from it's acute weakness of the past week. Coppers stood out in the industrial division, Amalgamated gaining 2 3-4 points in connection with the advence in the refined metal to 15 1-4 cents. United States Steel led the entire list in respect to activity, gain ing IA points on numerous individ- ual transactions, some of which ag- gregated 5000 or more shares, and various other industria1s rose pro- portionately.
 Bethlehem SteePs course plainly de- noted an accession of selling for profits. The stock made an initial rise to 73 a new high record, but soon re- hnquished all it's advantage and closed at 69 3-4, a net loss of 2 IA points. Best prices for the general list were registered in the final hour, the higher level being attended by greater activi- ty. Among the days favorable in duences were further large gold i'm ports, al from Canada indications of the placing of additional foreign cred it's at this center and renewed weakness in British and French ex- change, with resultant advantage to this market. In fact, foreign money markets are now governed by condi- tions imposed by our bankers and predictions are freely made that the current months exports will exceed all corresponding periods by many millions of dollars.
 Signs of a growing demand for Americans were seen in the London market, which was firm in most branches.
 Southern Pacific earnings for Feb ruary showed net gain of $322, 900 and minor roads also reported i'm provement.
 Total sales of stocks amounted to 617,0O0 shares.
 Bonds were steady, but the move ment in that quarter was more re- strained. Total sales, par value, $2,- 516,OO0

TaftviIIe Backed Out.

The basketball fans of Jewett City are quite indignant over the cancelled game with Taftville which was to have been played Tuesday evening. Mana ger Melvin writes the following letter: Sporting Editor:
 Manager Caron of the Taftville team put one over on the manager of the Jewett City team by the cancellation of the game in The Bulletin a few hours before the game, which was to be played Tuesday night. The only reason that was given in the paper was that owing to difficulties, and Jewett City sent representative to Captain Murphy, as it was known that it would be impossible to find the manager. as he was keeping under cover. This was the poor satisfaction that we received. Murphy said the game was not even advertised and they had over a week to do this and notify Jewett City that they would not be able to play. When the series was ar ranged the first game was to be played in Jewett City. Taftville showed up and were swamped and received $15 for their trouble, and guaranteed us the

ATTORNEYS-AT-LAW
BAKER STILL HOLDS OUT.
Homerun King Believes Mack is Not Paying Him What He is Worth.


 Frank Baker will never play ball with Connie Mack unless he is as- sured of a big fat salary. Baker doesn't have to worry. He has enough money tucked away to keep him on easy street the rest of his life," ac- cording to Jimmy Stevens, one of the young Washington pitchers.
 Stevens lives within three miles of Trappe, Md, Bakers home and knows the great slugger intimately. Stevens and Baker have been togeth- CT all winter.
 According to Stevens Baker owns two big farms in Trappe and 6 jew e1ry store in Cambridge, Md, besides some fine paying real estate in Phil adelphia- Bakers wife has money in her own name, and the family is not in any sense dependent upon Ba- ker's playing ball for a living. The home-run slugger is under a three-year contract with Connie Mack The contract expires in 1916, and the figures are about $4.500 a year.
 Baker believes he is worth more money than Mack is paying him in view of the way salaries have jumped since the Feds invaded the field. He will not join the outlaws, neither will he play with Connie Mack unless the tall pilot comes across with a big raise. Baker, being plentifully sup piled with this worlds goods, can sit back and pursue the watchful wait lng policy.
 On the other hand Baker loves the national game and if Mack sold him to New York or some other American League club with the understanding that a big salary would be paid the 1ome-run slugger would probably pack his grip and start work.
 Stevens declares that Baker has aken good care of himself the past winter and in the event of his re- naining idle this summer will organ lze an Eastern Shore league near his home.

Athletics Mascot Dead.

Louis Van Zelst, who acted as mas cot for the Philadelphia American league baseball team for five seasons, died at his home in Philadelphia. He was 20 years old, but his growth was stunted by an accident twelve years ago.
 The Athletics were in a slump in 1909 when Connie Mack saw the lit tie figure watching a game from the stand above the players dugout. He invited Van Zelst to act as bat boy and later obtained a uniform for him.
