SATURDAYS MARKET.

New York, Sept 14-Wilh the stock market exhibiting a strong undertone for the first time this week, general recoveries from the weakness Of the last few days featured todayS ses sion.
 Indications were that the stringency in money. to which was attributed the liouidation which had marked the re- trograde- movement of speculative is sues, had been modified at least to limited extent. This factor and the continued favorable war news, with a marked advance in Liberty bonds, served to encourage investment buy CTS. Short covering at the levels
 brought about by the recent break al- sO contributed to the firmness, and
 stocks generally ruled from one to five points above yesterdays closing quo- tations.
 General Electric and U. S. Alcohol scored the largest gains, each advanc- | ing five points. U. s. Steel and other representative issues, including Read 1 ing, South Pacific and Canadian Pa clfic, rose between one and two points, while some of the specialties which have been in the forefront of the re- cent decline made even greater ad- vances. Sales amounted to 150,000 shares.

 closed a much smaller decrease in l loans than was commonly expected in view of the drastic liquidation of the week, the retrenchment amounting to

 FOOTBALL TEAM

Students of Bulkeley school will sup port a crack football team this fall prepared to meet the fastest eleven in this state. Already Robert Mcbride has received contracts from Stoning- ton, Norwich, Stamford and other state high schools. Notwithstanding that many other high schools have given up the gridiron game for the season, the Bulkeley men are anxious to get into action. The only thing that they lack is a coach. and the only way they hope to get one is by means of out side aid to pay the wages of coach or go without one.

AUSTRIA PROPOSES
 A PEACE CONFERENCE (continued From Page One.)

Hungarian plan, and it can be stated that it does not present a single point upon which the entente powers and the United States are likely to agree with the authors. Familiar notes of insincerity and underlying sinister purpose are heard by officials. In the opinion of officials here, the primary object of Baron Burian, the Austrian foreign minister, and the Germans who stand behind him is to convince the Austrian and German peoples that their governments really desire peace, a course made necessary by the hisEl- ly dangerous and rebellious state of mind in Germany and particularly in Austria
 This could be accomplished speedily and effectively, it is pointed out by officials here by an open declaration ! of full and unqualified acceptance by Berlin and Vienna of the fourteen points laid down by President Wilson as a proper basis of peace. But this would sound the death knell of Pan Germanism; would mean the disgorge- ment of a huge tract of territory, enormous indemnities and valuable special privileges and monopolies which. the predatory central powers have wrung from Russia, not to dwell upon the recessation of Alsace-Lor- raine, whose wrongful seizure half | century ago President Wilson has sol
 emnly declared must be righted. i Another purpose to be served by such discussions as Baron Burian pro- 1 poses it is considered has been de-
 tected and exposed in almost every | one of the preceding German peace moves While the word discussions" has been substituted for the confer
 ences" originally proposed officials here without the slightest hesitation identify the purpose es another l round table" conference such as at Brest-Litovsk marked the ruin of l Russia. Discussions with all of the delegates assembled in one place and open to close personal influence and address w2uld not differ very much
 from formal gathering around a table and in fact might be more dan | gerous.
 So it was declared today that the United States would have none of them at this stage of the war, or at any other, in advance of binding ac- ceptance by the Germanic powers of the conditions proposed by President Wilson. With that as a basis there
 would be no objection to any proper
 consideration and discussion of even
 highly important details of the peace | agreement.
 With much interest the government
 here notes the statement that the Vatican and all neutral nat ions would
 be notified of the peace offer. Officials
 here presume that this is an attempt
 to enlist sympathy for the peace
 movement in those quarters. as the
 fact is recognized that this proposi-
 ton, which amounts to invitations to
 the Vatican and the neutral states to
 participate in the peace conferences
 would be f1attering to their pride. The
 attitude of the Catholic elements o1
 entente populations might well be re- garded as potent
