FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET.
Dealings Were Small Even for Mid-
 summer Saturday Session.

New York. July 29.-For all practi- cal purposes JOday'S session of the stock market may well have been omitted. Dealings were almost at an irredUCiblc minimum even for mid summer week end, the total barely apprONimating 100, 900 shares. Of this amount, the usual leaders like United States Steel, Mercantile Marine and fe wequipments and indUstrials made up over 30 per cent
 Many standard stocks were not re- corded at ell and gains of 1 to } points in issues of the character of New York Air Brake, American Car and more minor specialieS were with out the slightest influence elsewhere.
 Rails were almost mOtiOnless, with some irregular changes. Pennsylvania showing slight pressure with mOder- ate gains for Canadian Pacific and Atlantic Coast Line, and 4 points for Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburgh, which recently increased it's dividend rate. In point of activity and i'm portauce. inter national bond issues constituted the real feature of the day. AnElO-FrenCh lives changed hands to the extent of almost $1.100,0OO, mostly al 95 l-4. a small concession, and the new French notes were traded in to a total of almost $500, 0CG. all at 9S, the subscription price, at which this issue seems to be "pegged."
 General news included several June statements of railroad earnings, Cana dian Pacific showing an increase of slightly more than StOOO0OG, and Nor folk and Western $450O0O.
 Dealings in foreign exchange were in keeping with the dull stock market, sterling and francs being unaltered, with some improvement in marks and rCubleS.
 Local bank conditions were strength ened by a further small cash gain and reserves, but the clearing house state ment lacked especial features.
 Total sales of bonds, par value, az gregatcd $2. 45O GOO
 United States threes and Panama twos advanced 1-4, Panama threes 1-2 and United States twos declined 1-4 per cent. on call during the week.

INTERVIEW CLUB WINS AGAIN
Ashland Team of Jewett City Unable Find Enot Safe
 Houlihan Played Star Game-score 5 to 2.

The big crowd at the State Hospi- tai was treated to another exciting game Saturday afternoon when the RiVerview club trimmed the Jewett City team to theftunE of 5 to 2.
 The pitching of Enot was the fea- ture of the afternoon. He famed IS men and was at his best fin the pinches and deserved a. shutout. Especially in the eighth he showed his ability, when with the bases filled and no one out he famed two and made an easy out to an infeld, leaving the three men marooned.
 Jewett City came down strong and had a big crowd of followers who rooted hard but to no avail. Brickley pitched a good, clean game, flaming six and allowed no bases on balls. HOulihan played a fine game in cen- ter, making several running catches, robbing the Hospital boys of extra base hits. Oalzes robbed Finney of a nice hit when he ran over second and made a bare-hand stop of his smash and then recovered in time to throw Finney out at first.
 For the Hospital the hitting of Aus tin and Vincent was hard and timely.
 Next Saturday the Hospital will play the Athletics of South Manches- ter, who have already beaten the Mid dletown Asylum team, and reputed to be one of the fastest semi professional teams in the state.

COMING LIGHTWEIGHT.
Joe Yelling is Liable to Be a Prom
 inent Factor in the Ring.

There is another lightweight who is fast coming to the front and is likely to become a prominent factor in the situation before long. The newcom- CT s Joe Yelling of Chicago. who made his first appearance in over a year at the Broadway Sporting club, Saturday night. Yelling took the measure of Harry Pierce and showed great i'm provement over the form he displayed at @ Harlan club last year in his only other local appearance.
 On that occasion Yelling weighed oyer I4O pounds and appeared to be altogether too heavy for the light weight class but last Saturday he sealed only 134. Yelling has a re- marI5able build for a lightweight. He is tall as many middleweights and is well developed in the chest and shoulders. He gets his height from his extra long legs, which are as thin as stilts.
 WeIing is a fairly good boxer, and what is more to the point. he knows

The score developed into farciaI proportions along toward the end of the contest. In the seventh the locals pushed eight runs across on a wild and woody combination of hits and CT TOTS. The visitors had a terrible day In the field, compiling IA misplays, Crockett leading with four. Every man on the Manchester team made at least one pebble and three made two Or more. On the other hand every played on the home team with the ex- ception of Brown and McQuillan who paired off in right field was repre- sented in the hit column. Noel se- cured three safe walIOps and Higgins, Johnson, Anderson and Phaneuf each two. Higgins twirled the game for the mill team and with the exception of the fifth inning had his adversaries eating out of his hand. Madden of basket ball fame was hit hard but his support was enough to discourage any pitcher. The score:

shaRnon Twins jump.

The Shannon twins, Joseph and Maurice, packed their grips and jump ed as members of the New Haven team Thursday, but later sent tele- gram in the form of an alibi saying they were called home by the illness of their mother. Owner Collins was greatly surprised for he did not know they were out of the city until he re- seiced a wire from Jersey City. They said they would return to take part in Thursdays game.
 Why they should take all their per- sona1 belongings if they intended to return in a day is @ puzzle to the New Haven management and they firmly believe the twins intended jumping from the club If they do return they are liable to fines and suspensions for taking absence with out leave.

We'll ing should have won the bout in the second round, but lack of experience prevented him from putting on the finishing touches.
 With great height, long reach and hitting ability far above the average Yelling is a dangerous man for any of the contenders and there Is likely to be some lively sidestepping among those who have established reputa- tions,
