NEW YORK, May 12--There is no feature
in the dry goods market. The government bids
and the prospective awards for war supplies at
tract attention in many quarters. The print cloth
market and it's future is still the subject of much
earnest thought in many quarters and so the
legitimate pushing of trade has had to suffer.
Staple cottons are quiet. The sales of brown
goods for export purposes have been rather
heavy. Coarse coored cottons are firm, being
well sold up in some lines Print cloths firm
at 17sc nominal bids to large amount being
refused at that figure.

RYAN EASILY DEFEATS WEST.
Punished the New Yorker FenrfulIy
for Fourteen Hounds

NEW YORK, June 13-Tommy RYAN of
syracuse, met and easily defeated Tommy
west, OF this city. tonight in the four
tee1tA round OF a tWenty-round contest for
tAe weiter-weight championship of the
world Ryan outfcught his man al every
point and might have ended the contest
much quicker had he cared to- West was
game 10 the core and took an awful LOT
OF hammering. Ryan's hackers laid odds
on their man, and took all the New York
money in sight. The referee, Charley
waite, let the bout go as far as humanity
would permit and when a. last he sent
the men 10 their corners and awarded the
heht 10 Ryan, there was general satisfac-
ZION among the spectators. Ryan looked
exceedingly fit and well. and said he weigh
ed ifi pounds. West was also In splendid
shape. anu weighed 152 pounds.
The men got 10 work immed ately. and
there was fast fighting for four rounds
when Ryan sent the blood flying from
Vests nose. They kept up the pace until
tae eighth without material damage 10
either man. In the eighth Ryan let drive
with his right and landed on the solar
plexus. After a cllnch West jabbed a left
on the face and put Ryan down on his
back When they came to the center Of
the ring again, West put Ryan down again
with right swing on the jaw. Ryan got
up quickly. and after n little sparring
swung his right on Vests head, driving
West through the ropes. West was up In
two seconds.
The ninth was easy. but in the tenth
Ryan soaked his right ove- the heart and
West WINGED West came up wobbly in
the eleventh and Ryan kept jabbing his
sore nose. Ryan got in blow after blow
from then on. and West was smeared with
blood. West came up gameiy in the four
teenth round. but was unable TO protect
himself. as Ryan landed at will. jabbing
on the stomach and face West took his
punishment in the gamest manner !mag-
Unable. Ryan let up a little and looked at
the referee as much as 70 say, why don't
you stop IL. Charley"
White did not interfere. and then Ryan
smashed a couple OF times sending West
TO the ropes Referee White then went
between them and stopped the bout, at
ter many or the spectators had called on
him 10 do SO. White awarded the bout TO
Ryan. and the latter walked out OF the
rInS without a mark on him.
