II is very probable tnat the market
market will have some sort of a rally to-
day, although there was no indication of
it yesterday. There are two reasons
why this should occur, the first being
that the short interest is somewhat over.
extended and the second that the larger
bears would be willing to see some of
their small followers shaken out in order
that the better use might be made of the
bad bank statement expected Saturday.
LII such an upturn occurs it will naturally
go tnrther in sugar, tobacco, Peoples
Gas, fractions, steels and Grangers
which have been most heavily sold. 1t
IS believed, however, that anyone of
these would be sale on sharp bulge.
Sentiment among the talent is bearish
but az already stated, a reaction which
would relieve the oversold state of the
market, would be welcomed. The larger
bull are resting on their oars, apparently
intending to do nothing until some ''let
down" occurs in the market. The Lanks

EMPIRE CLUBS SHOW.
frankie Welsh Was to Clever For
Haggerty and McCne Out Point
ed the Whistler.

The boxing shows given in the
Academy of Music seem fated to have
disappointing features which the man
agement is unable to counteract. There
was good attendance at the show given
by the Empire Club last evenining. but
TIE Whlstler-McCue bout was somewhat
OF disappointment.
The two clever New York boxers were
booked for IL round go, for decision,
put owing to the management being un-
aole TO comply with their demands for a
purse the bout was cut to rounds with
the understanding that if either man
snould be ON his feet at the finish of the
e,ghth round the go should be a draw
| rms announcement was received with
misses and jeers from the gallery and
these same scheap sports'' made it nm
pleasant for the orderly lovers of the
manly art.
Whistler and McCue put up a good
and scientific rounds and McCue clear
ly out-pointed the Whistler.
While it would have been enioyed
much more had it been to decision il
was good show.
Billy Whistler was not in condition TO
box as he had not sufficient time to
tram. He was substitute for Jack
farfel, who was unable to go on owing
to an injury.

welsh and Jack Haggerty was short but
not. Welsh had Haggerty knocked out
