tice in preparation for the Storrs

Pennington valley has also had a
good season. However, the judges
will decide on the teams to play
in the c. and d. tournament at
storrs and the A. and b. tourna-
ment at New Haven to-day when
they meet in New Haven. There
Is some talk Of Thomaston being
the fourth team from the west OF
Connecticut. However, they have
lost five games which would give
them a low percentage but the
losses came in the early part or
the season which fact may be
taken into consideration.
At the regular monthly meeting
of the Connecticut Council OF
Catholic Women held Wednesday
evening in the school hall 1t was
decided to hold food sale st Pat

BANKERS ARE TO
BE ATTACKED BY
THE PRESIDENT
He Assumes They Are the
Worst Hoarders Of All
will Entice Them to
Disg0rge l
BY LYLE G. WILSON

Copyright 1892. by United Prcss)
Washington, March sup
President Hoover Is going after
the bankers next, on the assump-
ton that bankers are the worst
hoarders Of all"
The bulk Of emergency legisla-
ton has been enacted. Treasury
plans for "baby bonds' to endce
boarded money from hiding are
ready for announcement.
Mr. Hoover believes the govern
ment's next big job u to soothc
the nerves Of frightened bankers
He accepts without reservation the
public charge OF Senator Glass,
dem, Va, that the bankers are the
worst hoaders Of all.
That accusation Is predicated
on the fact that while many banks
were failing In the past two years,
the majority Of them have been
LIQUID in the fullest sense OF the
word. They have called loans, and
refused to make new ones in, order
to accumulate cash reserves again.
st the possibility Of runs. u
White House secretaries are de-
luged with letters from merchants
throughout the United States com.
planning that bankers are refusing
to extend credit regardless OF how
good the collateral may be. Many
Of those letters have reached MI
Hooyer's desk. White House
opinion Is that the bankers are
panic-stricken and must be reas-
sure.
Hoover's purpose now is to per-
suade bankers that their fears are
without foundation and that they
should release the accommodating
cash reserves into the loan chan
nels which create trade. :.
Two emergency measures awai,
congressional action. One wouie
create a permanent organizatior
| for relief Of depositors OF Close
banks. The other would create .
system Of home loan discount. Tnt
| former has an excellent change u
be enacted. a.
There is much opposition to TIM
Home Loan bank prosopal. M
Hoover urges 1t as q means further
to relieve banking from the ssran'
gle-hold long enjoyed by New
York city financiers. He believes
New York has too great a contra
over American banking. The Home
Loan bank system 10 cited az thu
obvious next step away from New
York on the path first travelled b,
| the Federal Land Bank system.

QUARTZ MINING |s
 RECEIVING STIMULUS

Among the Southbound passen- gers aboard the SS Yukon was Ben Stewart, chief of the Bureau of Mines for Alaska, who has been on an extended inspection of the Interior. MT. Stewart reports that quartz mining is receiving stimulus, especially around Fairbanks, and where skilled operations are pro- gressing are proving successful.
 Reports from the Eva Creek Mines, near Ferry, indicate that the present management is grad ually bringing the property to the front and solving the problems which at first beset it. About five tons of concentrates are being hauled to the railroad daily and steps are being taken to increase this output.
 One. of the new geological dis coveries of the Ferry district is an intrusion of rhyolite. This is the formation predominating at Gold fields, Nev., and other big gold camps.

RESUMES IN SPRING
(Continued from Pare onsl


 Waxed enthusiastically over the To- cation of the property, from scenic standpoint, describing it. the ChickalOon area--aS being one of the most beautiful spots he has ever seen. "The property is located between King and Castle noun tains; on the edge of a magnifi- cent little lake. Another lake fairly abounds in Dolly Warden and Rain bow trout and game is plentiful, such as caribou, mountain sheep, bears and a few moose"
 Captain Peterson is a graduate of Swedish technical college Fol lowing graduation he travelled ex- tensively, largely throughout Eur ope from the White to the Black Sea and all thru the Mediterranean. He then came to America, a pas senger on the sailing vessel Arab Steed, landing at Philadelphia; thence to New York where he spent some time in the service of the French government in connection with the present Panama Canal, as a civil engineer. Crossing the 18th mus he landed at San Francisco where he since has made his home.
 For more than 30 years Captain Peterson was associated with a large iron works company at San Francisco, in the capacity of esti- mator, calculating costs of con- struction of ships and other work.
 Unknown to but few today, the present work in Alaska is not his first activity in the Northland, for in 1898 he sailed the stern wheeler Florence to St. Michael from San Francisco. With a false keel and erecting two maSts on the steamer which had but 12 inches of free board, the Skipper-a hard-boiled one, too-struck out 1000 miles to- ward the Orient, and after cruising 4,6OO miles in 60 days, made St. Michael on June 19, 1898. There he converted the ship into a stern wheeler and showed off up the Yu- kon to the mouth of the Kuyokuk where he was stuck for six months. He then returned to St. Michael. sold the vessel to the Alaska Com mercial Company, and went over to Nome where he picked up some money. But, being a young man. he became homesick so decided to re- turn home.
 This bit of history is presented to enlighten Alaskans that besides being a regular fellow, and the man who will one day electrify the world by bringing in another oil well in Alaska, Captain Peter son is a dyed-in -the-wool Sour dough.

MARKET COMES
.. BACK AFTER
EARLY DIP
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, April % UN.SJ.
The stock mar:.:et firmed up to-
day after an early reaction, week
end evening up providing suf-
ficient buying to stem the down
ward course of prices and bring a
mild rally.
Many new lows were made be-
fore the list turned around. These
included U. S. Cteel, American
Can, Standard Oil of New Jersey,
Socony Vacuum, Case Threshing,
General Foods and Radio.
Juneau Heavily Sold
Alaska Juneau was heavily sold
and broke to a new bottom for
the year. Weakness in the stock
was interesting in view of the
revelation by Percy Rockefeller
yesterday that he had been in a
pool in the stock with Bernard E.
Smith and Tom Bragg, two oper-
atorS who have been called to
testify in the bear probe.
U. S. Steel turned strong after
making a new low, stimulated by
semi-official declaration that the
81 preferred dividend would be
maintained. Weakness in the
senior issues recently had raised
considerable uncertainty over the
payment.
Some Good Gains
Advancing tendencies gained
slow but steady momentum in the
list toward the close with good
sized gains being shown by lead
ing issues. The recovery in the
rails was led by Atchison and
Union Pacific.
Oils were steadied by a better
tone in Royal Dutch. Standard of
New Jersey rallied after hitting
a new low. Utilities were steady.

The cotton market showed q
slightly easier tone today, with
declines of from l to 3 points

livery. japanese interests sold
May and July. with local and
New Orleans traders likewise
active on the selling side. Hedge
sales we're limited.
A good volume of price fixing
from the trade furnished support,
while buying demand also came
from Liverpool, Wall Street, and
commission houses, the latter
interested mainly in the distant
months.
Exports of American cotton
were larger this week than in
the corresponding week last year,
according to the weekly report
of the New York Cotton Ex-
change. They totaled 10000
bales this week, against $4,000 in

LITTLE CHANGE ON CLOTH

NEW YORK, April 23.-There was
little change in the coarse yarn cloths
market today. either in the price
structure or the pace of buying. In one
or two styles there was good buying,
and in some of the print cloth con-
structions second hands came out with
new low offerings. 1t was generally
felt that the principle barrier against
further recessions in prices is the gem
eral realization of most of the market
of the fact that it is not necessarily A

that it is often a deterrent to buying.
