 i Bill Carey Knows Baseball No More. 1 The opening of the Eastern league l baseball season next month will see i the passing of Bill Carey as owner of l the Springefld club. Carey has been | prominent in New England baseball
 affairs for the past ten years and until ! the past few seasons had made base i ball a paying investment in the City i of Homes A few weeks ago he de- ] cided to dispose of his interests in the i club and the deal was closed recently
 It was Carey, together with James H 1 Clarkin, and the late George M. Cam
 eron, who brought about the famous merger which resulted in the forna- tion of a league composed of tht largest cities in the Connecticut ant New England leagues. Carey, like hi: associates, foresaw wonderful oppor tunities for such a circuit which, con trary to expectations, has failed t prove a financial success.

of business and amuSements.
 Besides branching out as bull fighter in Spain, Johnson became 8 doctor" He obtained the formula, for a medicine said to cure nervousness. The Spaniards fell for it, and Jack de- rived neat revenue.
 Johnson was taken to Cuba by a syndicate of Mexicans, headed by Gems. Juan Merigo and Alfredo 3rac- ceda. The former is a member of President Carranza's staff and veal thy. The latter owns one of the finest residences in Mexico City. Johnson has his gymnasium ill the base ment.
 That these men are among the most influential in the city was shown by this incident. The owner of an American drug store refused to servo 1 the former champion a glass of soda water. Jack made this known to the members of the syndicate vho 1 who promptly escorted Johnson hack
 to the drug store and compelled the
 druggist to serve him.
 l The syndicate plans to arrange fer
 American fighters to go to Mexico and
 give exhibitions with the negro. rhsy are particularly anxious to get Fred
 Fulton, although overtures win be
 made to Jack Dempsey. Jess Willard, and other heavyweights.
 The syndicate also plans to build 8
 beautiful country club which will
 serve as rest cure. Johnson will be
 placed in charge. He will sive eafly exhibitions of his skill and sch his patent cure for nervousness.
 The ex-champion still maintains that his fight with Willard was fixed and that he agreed to lay down etc the present champion after Jack Cur ley and the other promoters had prom ised to fix it with federal authorities for his safe return to the United States

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAYS MARKET.

New York, April 2G.-Rails and oils divided honors in today's extremely active stock market, the turnover for the two hours being on the basis of two million shares for a full session.
 The demand for rails differed from recent movements in that it centered very largely in high grade or divi- d-paying shares, although minor or reorganized issues were well to the fore'
 Gross advances in Canadian Pacific. Southern Pacific Atchison and other transcontinental and grangers extend ed from one to almost three points, Reading and other coalers sharing moderately.
 . Royal Dutch issues featured the oils, shares of the original company gain ing : 1-2 points and the local issue virtually SIX points to the accompani- ,ment of various bull rumors
 The strenSth of Royal Dutch was the more striking because of in2essant pressure against Mexican Petroleum, which made but little recovery from it's siX-point reaction.
 American Locomotive was strongest of the equipments, and [. $. Steel, which made way in point of activity to several other issues of less promi- nence held all but q small fraction Of it's 1 Il point advance.
 Shippings, motors and metals were irregular, also sugars and tobaCcos, but Ohio Cities Gas responded to a cut in the quarterly dividend with net gain of two points. Sales amounted to S00.090 shares.
 Despite the heavy trading of the week. clearing house banks reported another moderate contradiction of ac- tual loaas. but the better part of last weeks gain in excess reserves was . lost.
 Bonds, especially railway issues, were firm. Total sales (par value) az gresated S6.65O, 900, old |. s. bonds were unaltercd on call during the week.

Fraud! Fraud! Fraud!

The latest type of Fraud that has been called to the attention of the Home Service Sections of the Southwest Division is the offer of some Eastern organiza. tion (name unknown) to bring back the bodies of the deceased members of the American Expe- ditionary Forces in France at the rate of 5000 per body. This company is evidently writing to the families direct and suggest ing that the money be enclosed by return mail. Home Service Sections are asked to warn sold iers' families against such, and advise them that this question can be taken up only with the Government, and we will be glad to give any information we have about 1t.
