Stone Wants Franchise for Norwich Presi dent Reeves Reelected Does Keech Belong to Dan ielson or Dayville? Wiflimantic Basketbaliists Win. (Special to The Bulletin.) Danielson, Jan. 24. The annual meeting of the Eastern Connecticut baseball league was held in the Phoenix theater Sunday afternoon. About thir ty were present. President Reeves called the meeting to order and the following managers were recorded as the official representatives of their teams: Peter Bonin, Putnam; John B. Benoit, Norvvich-Taf tville; Daniel Ga han, North Urosvenordale; Kdward J. Farrell, Wauregan; W. Dyke Cogswell, Dayville; Thomas JIcBroome, Jewett City. The election of officers -resulted In the following choice: President, A. L. Reeves of Danielson; treasurer, Leon T. Wilson of Putnam; secretary, Ed ward A. Sullivan of Danielson. The board of directors is composed of the team managers mentioned above with the exception of Cogswell of Dayville, who represented that team pending the election of a. manager. Only one of last year's managers, Benoit, of Taftville, will handle a ream this sea son, unless Walker of Dayville Is re elected at the meeting of the Dayville Baseball association. The changes have been made for various reasons, but for the most part on account of resignations. Aside from the election of officers little real business waa transacted. Ap plications fgr admission to the leafcu were received from Norwich. Daniel son, Central Village and a provisional one from Webster. J. J. C. Stone wants 'the. Norwich franchise. President Reeves applied for Danielson, J. A. Ramsay for Central Village. J. T. Mc Manus of Webster was present and said that town would put a team in the league if it so happened that some of the teams in the southern' .part of the circuit intended dropping out, but otherwise they did not want to come in, as the distance between the towns would necessitate too much traveling. The applications for admission opened the question of the advisability of ex tending the league to an eight eiuo circuit and, after considerable discus sion, for and against, on motion of Manager McBroome, it was voted that action on the matter be postponed un til a meeting of directors two weeks herce. This action will allow rime for conference between the managers and the teams they represent. On motion of Manager Benoit a vote of thanks was passed to J. Arthur At wood of Wauregan for services as treasurer of the league during last season. When that period of the meeting was reaohed where a discus sion of matters of general interest to the league was in order the managers warmed up in midseason form and in a way to prove that the baseball fever is chronic and likely to break out in January if the conditions are right. They touched on schedules, new rules, admitting new teams, holding and hiring players, and a dozen other things. The talk finally simmered down to a discussion of where Pitcher Kech of the Dayville team will play in the ev?nt of Danielson being admit ted to the league. Mr. Cogswell of Dayville contended that Keech belong ed "to the Dayville team because of having played with them last season and is thereby held by them for this season. President Reeves, who seeks the Danielson franchise, olaimed that Keech lives In Danielson and under the rules of the league that he should play In Danielson if that place has a team. However, Danielson is not yet admitted and may not be if the' direc tors so decide. On the other hand, it would make clear to the managers that Danielson is not so anxious to force its way into the league as to create any 111 feeling or dissatisfaction with any team or in any way. The fans In Dan-, ielson want a team and it would make one of the be! towns on the circuit. But It does not want one at the x peTise of harmony In the organisation, which was so successful In Its Initial season. The directors were told; in advance what Danielson expects to do o that when the meeting to vote on admitting or rejecting is called they ear. work with a full knowletfge of the situation and U3; their best Judgment for their own interest and that of the league. If Danielson is admitted som? other town must, also be taken on to make the eighth club. Tlie meeting to decide the matter will be held In Danielson Sunday, Feb. 7th. Among those attending the meet ing In an unofficial way were retiring Managers Williams of Jewett City, Frudenthal of North Orosvenofdale, Raymond, HolOen and Goven of Wau regan and Warren of Central Village. FINANCIAL AND SATURDAY MARKETS. A Few Shares Higher General Tone of Prices Heavy. New York, Jan. 23. Stock market movements were irregular throughout the two hours of trading; on a moder ately active volume of business lor a half-holiday session. In a few issues decided strength was shown at times, but the general tendency among the prominent shares was in the direction of a slightly low er range of quotations, net losses whtfii reccrded being con fined to fractions, except in Erie and New York Central, in which declines wure 1 and 1 1-4 per cent, respective ly. American Cotton Oil a?,;.iu was a strong feature, .lii!e evidence of strength was presented by Chesapeake and Ohio. St. Paul, the local traction shares. United States Rubber and Virginia-Carolina Chemical on traders' operations. Commission houses were not important factors in the dealings. The market closed irregular and dull. Stocks were sold freely at concessions, the decline running to a point in sev eral active stocks. Some rebounds fol lowed on coverings by shorts.

A. gymnasium Sat urday evening the Tigers of the local association lost a hotly contested bas ketball game to the Acorns of the Wil limantic association. 21 to 19. Tile Wil limantic toys exhibited greater science and more experience in the game, but the home .team showed it had the ma terial to do some good work on the floor after a little more experience. A good sized crowd witnessed the con test and was worked into fever heat by the scrappy rally of the Tigers in the second half. ' In the first half the Acorns had the Tigers guessing by their fast passing and accurate shooting, Martin excell ing in the latter department. The Acorns finished the half in the lead, 15 to 8. Coming back for the second half, the Tigers got into the game with the vim of the animals they are named after. Desjardines popped in two right off the reel, and Read came along with a foul goal, leaving the Tigers only two behind. Then Aberg looped one in that tied the score, 15 to 15, amid the yells of the crowd- Martin put the Acorns in the lead a minute after, while the crowd got frantic urging the home team to go in and win. But the Acorns had a few shots left and pulled out ahead, 21 to 19. by the time the whistle blew. The lineup and sum mary: ' Acorns Martin If, E. Lewis rf, Jones c, A. Lewis Ig, Cochrane rg.
