nance-The Foreign Financial Situation
London, November 23.-The financial
situation, or rather the condition of the
european stock markets, continues most
unsatisfactory. This is only partially
due to the dubious political outlook. The
more potent cause is the attempt to carry
over from settlement to settlement large
number of really insolvent firms both
IN London and Paris. Every attempt to
dispose of the doubtful assets of these
concerns brings a collapse In the market.
Many financial men believe it would
ne much moro salutary in the end to
Sharply liquidate the affairs of these con-
Germs and let the market start afresh
from lower but sound foundation
The redoubtable Barnato is again cred
lied with valiant deeds in the support of
holders of his stocks. His reputation in
TINS line furnishes the basis for some
amusing stories, such as the following
A country parson wrote to him the 9TH
er day: My aim has always been invest
ment, not speculation. When your bank
came out regarded its shares as an in
Vestment, and purchased 400 of them at
"a. sinking my little all in them, and a
goodl deal more. They have now fallen
TO -, and 1 am undone. I cannot face
my parish as bankrupt, and what am
10 DO? L throw myself upon your mercy. "
Mr. Barnato was deeply moved by the
appeal and replied that he would buy
pack the shares at a. On receipt of this
reply the guileless parson wired to his
brokers' to buy 400 shares Of Barnato

barnato Brothers, who will give you

The present feeling in financial circles

has entirely disappeared, and the uncer-
tainties, both Of politics and of threat
ened liquidation, indicate uncertain mar
kets fol. some time to come.

GOOD SPARRlNG.
Boston and Portland Amateurs at tho Ath.
letic Club.

The first sparring exhibition of the
season took place in the gymnasium Of
the AthleticClub Saturday evening. There
was a good attendance. Skilful amateurs
from both Boston and Portland took
part.
The first bout was between George
Noyes of Deering and Dave Nelligan OF
Boston, the 1876 pound amateur champion
of New England. They began with much
vim and hit hard. Michigan showed his
superiority from the first, but he had no
picnic. Noyes showed up in good form
and frequently gave as good as he got.
In the second round Michigan became
more aggressive and made some savage
rushes. He got in some wicked jabs, but
Noyes took his medicine without vince,
made some good lodges and got in some
swift returns.
In the third, Michigan drove through
Noyes's guard without much difficulty
several times, the latter being decidedly
weak in his face guard. They olinohed
several times. Noyes could do little but
defend himself and wasn't very success
full at that. He was outclassed, but he
made a good fight. There were no trick
about this sparring. 1t was the Simon
pure article.
The second bout was between James
Lynch of Boston and John Keirns of
Portland. I his pair began very different
ly from the preceding They didn't get
down to business for some time and
Referee Lee had to tell them to wake up
for the last ten seconds. Scarcely one
solid blow was given during the first
round
The second round was livelier. Lynch
began to develope some quick work that
produced results. Keirn's face began to
get red. There was much method and
subtlety in Lynoh's blows. They seemed
to take Keirns entirely by surprise.
In the wind-up Lynch continued his
good work. He was shorter than Keirns.
but in the rushes he repeatedly lodged
and then came around like flash and
with tremendous effect. He was clearly
having his own way at the end and
punished Keirns severely. The latter
was not up to his usual work and seemed
to be decidedly out of condition.

Yesterday Lively Day at Yale Field-Cap-
 tain ThOrne Also at Work-A Large
 Crowd Watched the Englishmen at rrae-
 tice-TIacks in Good Condition.
 The members of the Yale football squad who have arrived in town were at Yale field yesterday and practiced kicking, catching and passing the pig skin. Captain Thorne, Dewitt, Morros and Sherwood were present, and Cap tain Thorne showed that vacation has not spoiled his knack of long bunting. He gave the men various pointers and kicked and caught alternately. Sher- wood and Dewitt also seemed to be in good form.
 While the men were practicing But terworth, the we'll known Yale full-back of the last few years, drove out to the field and was greeted heartily by Cap tain Thorne. MT. Butterworth starts for the west in few days.
 The Cambridge men who are in town were also at work practicing the hur- dles, high jump, sprinting and hammer throwing. The high school football team was also at practice on another part of the ground and altogether the appearance of the field was very similar to what it is when college is opened and the men are practicing for the big games. The bleachers along the ath- letic track were partially filled with in terested spectators of the practice, and among the crowd were noticed many students who have returned in the last few days. Knight B. Wade was looking over the. improvements recently made on the tracks and found everything very satisfactory, except that some DOT tions of the track, especially that for the long jump, are too hard. This will be remedied.
