NEW ENGLAND LEAGUE MAY
 BE REVIVED THIS SUMMER
old Baseball Circuit, With Eight
 Eastern Cities Represented, Is in Prospect.

Boston, Jan. IS, (By Associated Press) Revival of the old New Eng land baseball league, with eight east ern cities represented by teams is in prospect. If present plans are fulfilled the franchises will have been grant ed, clubs formed and a schedule will be under way by May 30.
 Stephen J. Flanagan of Lawrence, manager of clubs in several cities of the old league is promoting the re- vival. He said today that formal ap- plication for territorial rights had been made to Secretary John H. Far rell of the national association of baseball clubs and he expected no opposition.
 The circuit has not definitely been decided upon. At present Flanagan said. nine cities are under considera- tion. Lewiston and Portland, in Maine; Manchester in New Hampshire; and Lowell, Lawrence, Haverhill, Salem Lynn and Fitchburg in Massachusetts In most of these cities it is understood parks are available.
 The names of those associated with Flanagan in the project are not made known at this time. His conferences in this city and elsewhere recently have brought together some men at present connected with major league clubs at 'least one of whom may ar range to take the franchise and man. age one of the clubs in the league. A meeting to consider the proposi- ton to put the New England league back on the baseball map will be held here in ten days.

Get Orders in Early if
 Your Coal Is Running Out

File your coal orders early!
 This is advice which the wise will heed.
 Coal dealers say they are swamped with orders and because of the snow they are unable to continue normal deliveries. Householders whose bins are nearly empty should put in their orders now, although there is no guarantee that they will be filled inn mediately.
 Railroads have placed an embargo on bituminous coal for the purpose of expediting deliveries of anthracite, but the latter is coming in slowly.
 Harry c. Brown, local fuel admin istrator, agrees that orders should be filed early. He says that conditions in this city do not warrant great deal of optimism.

BY STUART p. WEST.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 1o.-The whole
question before this weeks Wall
street market has been whether the
rise in prices has or has not discount
ed the Improvement in outside trade.
Upon this subject there Is much diff
ference Of opinion. In u1tra-specula-
tive circles there Is continued talk Of
further boom regardless of the
ultimate consequences. In other quar-
ters, more er-minded thought has
been taken of the violence Of the re-
cent advance in industrial shares
and Of the likelihood that speculative
interests have abused the opportunity
afforded by the favorable bushes
news and easy credit conditions, and
have forced prices up to an extreme
not warranted by actual values.
Many things that have happened
during the last week or so have
brought remembrances OF November,
1919, and April, 1920. Some of the
marking up OF industrial specialties
mas been quite as wild and reckless
as anything witnessed in either of
those periods.
sun there are very important differ
enceS in favor of the present situa-
ton. One Is that credit Is now abun-
Cant, where then II was scarce: an
other Is that there has not developed
as yet anything like the public craze
Tor speculation that there was at that
time.
Danger OF Higher Money Rates.
The principal danger In the situa-
tton is that Wall street speculation
Will keep on at the present pace,
when. every day. rising prices and ex-
pandfng production in trade are maxi
ing larger demands upon the money
market. If this combination We're
continued for very long 1t would GER
tainly bring about restrictive meas
ureS In the shape of further advances
in federal reserve rates.
Much IS made of the decrease with
IN the last month Of some $50, 900. 900
IN the rediScounts of the New York
bank. This is pointed to as proof that
the Wall street speculation has in
Tolved no strain whatever upon bank
resources. and that consequently there
is no reason to anticipate efforts to
discourage continuance OF the cam
paign.
Against this. however, Is to be set
the fact that the speculative demands
so far have been handled by the men,
Der banks which had large upem-
pIoyed balances released by the period
or liquidation beginning in the fall Of
1920 and continuing through the ma
tor part of 1921. The rediscount privi-
lege. therefore, has not had TO be in
Voked to any important extent
But II the speculative movement an d
the business expansion were to con-
tinue the way they are going it
would not be long before the federal
reserve institutions began to feel the

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 1O.-Confficttng
price movements characterized this
weeks stock market, IN which the
industrial averages again establish
ed new peak prices since the spring
of 1920. The reaction, which was
started on rumors that another in
crease in the local federal reserve re-
discount rate was impending, was
construed as . correction Of the
weakened technical position which
had developed as 4 result Of the re-
cent sustained rise.
The bidding up OF speci;5l stocks
vas founded, in part on the rising
price tendency in various basic COM
modities: reports Of impending mcr-
gers. including Standard Oil of In
diana with Cosden Oil and Kenne-
colt with Utah coppers; higher divi-
dend announcements. including. the
