PLANTER SQUAD ALL
 SIGNED FOR COMING SEASON McCann Has All Positions Filled Ex-
 cept Catching Department.

Notwithstanding the lack of harmony in some sections of the Eastern asso- citation during the past winter and the refusal of New Haven, Springfield and Hartford owners to fall into line. Man ager McCann of the Planters has gone severely on his way and lined up a ball club that from the dope book looks good enough to give the rest of the league a run for it's money.
 With the exception of a catcher, McCann has signed enough men for every position on the New London club, Hildebrand being the only back stop who has attached his signature to a document binding him to deliver his services to New London during the season.
 Four outfielders will be on hand for trials when the training season opens next month. Danny Senno, secured season with Bridgeport, will probably cavort in left field. Senno will look much better in a New London uniform that he did wearing the badge of Own CT Freeman. While with the Park city he repeatedly robbed New London batters of what looked like extra base clouts into his territory and McCann wisely decided to put him where his energies would benefit the Planters, in- stead of cutting down their batting averages. Three others will tackle the gardens. Of these Owen Quinn, last years first baseman. looks like cer- tainty for right field. Quinn batted much better in the few games in which he played the outf1eld than he did while a member of the inheld, and as speed is the password for next season his speed on the paths will make him

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET ACTIVE,
Bethlehem Steel Was the Feature of
 the Day.

New York, March 20.-Specialists
 were again to the fore during today's two-hour market session, the activity and strength of Bethlehem Steel being
 the most noteworthy feature. Trading
 in that stock aggregated about 25,000
 shares, its top figure and new record
 price being 68, which represented a
 maximum advance of almost 10 points
 from the previous days low price.
 Profit taking caused some shading
 from its high level, with a net gain of three points.
 The movements of this stock during the past fortnight have been the sub Ject of much conjecture, and specula- tion, especially as it's representatives have several times unqualifedly stated
 that dividends are a thing of the re-
 mote future. There were rumors to- day that contest for control of the property is on. but this was not cred ited in quarters which are supposed to
 have intimate knowledge of the com- pany'S affairs.
 Motor shares also participated to a cor siderable degree in the general rise, their gains extending from one to six conservative circles. Department store issues, National Lead and American Can trailed along with these more speculative specialties, while the sea- scHed dividend stocks and erstwhile
 market leaders rose only fractionally. I dif1c and New Haven were the only shares to gain a point or more. United States Steel took a second place to Bethlehem Steel throughout the ses- sion and closed with a material frac- ticnal advance.
 London's market seemed to ignore the news from the Dardanelles, the various home issues showing but little loss on moderate selling. Contrary to it's usual course, Canadian Pacific was
 more inclined to heaviness than any other stock in the international list.
 The local bank statement met gen. eral expectations, showing an actual
 cash gain of about $11,000,0 900, excess
 reserves increasing by almost $10,O0O,- 900.
 Total sales of stocks amounted to 173,200 shares.
 Bonds were steady, except New York Central 6s, which were extensive ly sold at concessions. Total sales (par l value) $1,213,000.
 U. s. bonds were unchanged on call during the week.

The Eastern Connecticut Association football league played it's initial games Saturday afternoon with big crowds at both games. Plainfie1d defeated Taftville by the score of to 2 and Baltic succeeded in defeating the Pone- nah Wheel club in the final few min utes of play, score to 0. The new arrivals in the league put up a great fight and proved to be a surprise. For the first time in four years the Taftville football club met defeat on their home grounds with Plainfeld, the champs doing the trick. The game was fast and close in the first half but the visitors drew away in the final. Both teams displayed wonderful de
 fensive work and played in good form for the first game of the season.
 Pla1nfield won the toss and chose the goal with a slight wind behind them. After five minutes of play Cap tain Sutton of the ,Taftville team scored the first goal The Plainfield team attacked strongly for fully 20 minutes without result and finally on a center from McCusler J. Greenhalgh scored. Through brilliant defensive work by Desjardin, H. Ffnlayson and Jesse Greenhalgh, Plainf1eld was end of the half Underwood scored. The rest of the half was of a give and take variety, which netted no score for either side.

 On the resuming of play Plain field attacked the home teams goal with added vim and fferceness, but were repulsed. Goal Tender H. Fin layson cleared and A. Finlayson got the ball and made a pretty pass to Jesse Greenhalgh, who, with the aid of Blanchette, rushed the ball within the shadows of the visitors goal, en- abling A. Finlayson to score, tying the score. On the kickoff the forwards with renewed vim rushed the local team off it's feet with speed and daz- zling passes. Underwood scored again, making the second score of the game which was followed shortly by scores made by Palasier and Rostern, a new
 man, who from all indications prom ises to be a find for the plainfield team. The lineups and summary fol-
