SHRINKING VALUES.

| A telegram recently published denies
the statement that Russian finances are
in bad way and that her commercial
position is not very much better. The
denial is well worded and comes from
| the Russian finance minister. Were
the original charge merely based upon
ephemeral news, it might or might not
be depended upon. But it does not de-
pend upon ephemeral news, for a report
upon financial and commercial condi-
tions in Russia was published in the
advance Sheets of Consular Reports
on February Z of this year. and that
report was from W. r. Holloway, our
own Consul-GeneraI in st. Petersburg.
Such a report may be regarded as au-
thentic.
The Consul General points out that
there has been a commercial crisis in
Russia for the past three years and
that this has told upon all classes of
business. The Consul General has no
need to hide the truth from the state
department, that is what he holds his
appointment for. OF course there is
every reason to gloss the matter over
on the part of the Russian finance
minister, but the evidence Of the Amer
lean Consul General will outweigh the
evidence Of the prejudiced party.

one case the shares Of a mining opera
ton fell from $lO.62 to AS cents. In one
.of the Russian provinces, Ekaterinos-
laf, the shares of Franco-Belgian con-
Germs We're worth $2,O98,S75. At the
commencement of the present year
their value was but $18,O2S. Another
company has fallen from S115.SO to $1.16.
In the building and constructive
branches the loss is 60 per cent. Gas
and electric have gone down 81 per
cent, and the coal companies have got
off with a shrinkage Of 46 per cent
With such facts before us, supplied
by a highly paid and efficient Off
cial, one does not feel disposed to lis
ten to the eX parte statements of the
Russian finance minister. Such an
enormous shrinkage all round must
mean practical ruin to a great many,
must mean serious crippling for others.
and the utter Reorganization Of
the commercial system. 1t is a com
mon attribute Of the Russians to be
secretive, but these facts go to show
that Russia viii not play so great a
part in the Far East as she expected.
The knowledge Of the financial condi-
ton win have its effect when the game
Of bluff will take place. Financiers do
not want to see Russia go beyond her
strength, and the bluff will be called
down.

Futifity of Playing Eastern Horses.
Eth ylene Should Win the EenfuEe.

Handspinner will be the favolite in the
first race at DeInar to-day. Not because
she has done anything to justify her being
better than a 2o-to-1 shot, but because she
comes from the East and was once owned
by J. E. and F. r. Eeene. She is a pad
actor, wears whip, spurs and biinkers, and
never was better than 'steeath In a race
in her life.
But. just like Port Royal. she will be
backed because she comes from the East.
though every year horses go East from
ST. Louis and win races-3ke Jim Clarke.
Mabel Winn. Doone. Jack Ratiin. Huntres-
"a and Captain Gaston-St. Louisans seem
10 think that Eastern horses have the
Nesterners outciassed. Maybe they have,
but they do not come West after having
once gone East. When they do come West
the Westerners beat them as a rule.

other day. She breezed over Icicle at Kim

GENERAL PUGILIsTIc GOSSIP.
Ryan still I'm the Front Among the
Middle Meights Of the Prize Ring.

Tommy Ryan's victory over Kid Carter
at Fort Erie last night seems to indicate
that the Kansas City man is in as good
trim as he ever was, and that he is still
the strongest factor in the middle-weight
class. Unlike most pugilists who have en-
tered the saloon business. Ryan has not
ruined his constitution by the excessive use
OF liquor. and his defeat of q strong. young
fellow like Carter is a tribute to his ability
In the ring.
As stated in the telegraphic dispatches.
the battle was the first hard contest Ryan
has entered for the last two years. the willy
any engagements with men who seemed
likely TO give him trouble. 1t Is only this
last spring that he lodged a meeting with
PHILADELPHIA Jack O'Brien at Louisville, end
the criticism arising over the episode doubt
less forced him into n meeting with some
tougher antagonist than those he had been
meeting at Kansas City.
Ryan has now been in the ring for nearly
fourteen wears, and is somewhat beyond the
years old. He fought several times before
he was IS, but his first battle of Importance
was with Dick England, whom he defeated
in thirty-three rounds At Lake City, Mich.
following year he took on Martin
Shaughnessy. Con Doyle. Mike Dunn and
other hard hitters Of that period, and his
success against them Afforded him instant
advancement in the ring.
In 1925 he won from Jack Dempsey in
three rounds at Coney Island. the bout at
tracing considerable attention His fights
with Kid Mccoy resulted in some of the
most scientific battling ever witnessed in
the ring. the first fight being at Syracuse.
y. Y Ii was stopped by the police in the
fifth round and was called a draw,
The bout afforded as pretty an exhibition
as was ever seen in the East. although
OF some jokes thereafter. as be legged II
most industriously about the ring. The
style Of fighting did not take with the
spectators particularly well. as they were
not then educated up to the Attell method
OF fighting.

James ]. Corbett and George Dixon were
in their prime. and he Is often referred to
as proving hat lighters of Dixon's school,.
combining extreme science with hard hit
ting and the power to land cko are
really the modern types of fighting ma
chimes. and that they can successfully cope
with any class of pugilist. That Ryan has
held his own for so long seems to add
weight to the argument.
