TWO DARK HORSES
MEET With DEFEAT

Two dark horses in the prize ring
met with defeat at the Orpheum dur
ing the fstic carnival Saturday night
and Referee Billy Woods showed that
he was the right man to handle con
tests where a clear head and knowledge
of the sport is necessary.
There was one fair go between Dono-
van OF San Francisco and EathrOp, a
soldier from Camp Mckinley. 1t last
ed six rounds and was exciting in every
round. The soldier did most of the
lighting and Donovan proved that hr
could run foot races when things were
coming his way too lively.
THE event of the evening"" ten
round go between O'Neil of San Frau
cisco and Kid De Lyle of Camp McKin-
ley, proved a great disappointment,
The Frisco man looked as II he was
In better condition to attend his own
funeral than to engage In fisticuffs. and
the first punch from De Lyle sent him
to the floor in dazed condition. He
took his time to get up and was prompt
ly ioored again.
De Lyle then became excited and hit
mis- man while he was on his knees. He
was warned by Woods not to do II
again but he made two repetitions and
Woods gave the fight to o'Neil, which
was right.
De Lyle Is young fighter and good
one as his go with Jimmie Kennard
showed. but his hot head lost him the
fight Saturday evening. His many
friends were disappointed at the re-
suit but had to acknowledge that hi
fouls deserved no better reward.

New York. Feb. 5.-Liverpool made a
full response to our improvement OF yes
to-day and our market held steady dur
ing the forenoon. Although there was
very little business doing. In The after
neon session there was considerable
short covering and some new buying,
mostly by the large spot interests and
the German element. who are very bull
sh on the situation, and do not hesitate
to give support whenever it is needed.
We understand that there is a heavy
short interest which is protected only
to about 9.20 for MAY, and that there is
to be an effort to force this interest
to cover. in other words, the friends Of
the market arc going 70 exert every eff
fort possible to carry March and May
contracts up to 9h cents Immediately in
order to force out this short interest.
In addition to this it is a well known
fact that the followers of c prominent
erst-while bull leader arc eli on tho
short side and as the leader himself has
been a buyer today. it is not unlikely that
his followers will be buyers tomorrow
and for some days to comn indeed. the
position never looked stronger and WI
feel confident that the market will he
thirty to forty points higher within a
week.

(snecia, TO News and Observer

Especial to News and ObServer)
New York, Feb. 5.-May cotton here
today sold at 8.95 shortly after midday,
a new high price for the season. This
followed an advance Of some five or six
points in Liverpool and more moderate
receipts in Houston for tomorrow. So
much cotton has been sold for profits dur
ing the last ten days that prices advanced
rather easily this morning. At S.94 for
May selling began again just before
above $50 and for awhile this took all
the vim out of the bulls. Again it was a
most disappointing market, in that there
was no business. With anything like a
good active demand we could have a
sharp advance But each time the mar
ket works into new ground few points
we have a setback. This is very trying. A
month ago May sold at S.S1 and sold there
yesterday The wabbling around has un-
settled everyone in the business. Either
the market is being held down, or is held
up We are on the fence as much a.
ever All through the early part of Jan
uary the market has been one to take
profits on every advance. Now we are at
the top of the season with the position
Just as strong as ever We would con-
tnue to buy cotton on any setback. just
as long as nothing in the way of weakness
develops.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Feb. 5.-The aggregate
dealings in stocks rose to above three
quarters of q million shares today The
market was broad, and at times very
active and also gave general impress
sion of strength and advancing prices.
That this impression was to some eX-
tent illusory is manifest from the small
and ragged showing of net gains fer the
day. Whereas at one time large num-
Der of leading active stocks were point
or more above last nights closing. 1t
will be seen that the last prices for the
day were in all cases materially below
the best. while in many instances the
earlier gains were wiped out and the
final prices made lower than those Of
last night 1t is evident that operators
with large resources and with an extern
sive organization for the purpose have
ventured upon a stock market campaign
for an advance in prices. There is no
evidence yet that the leadership thus
undertaken has been effective in attract
ing any large outside buying movement.
The prevailing ease in money is the
dom ;nant motive for the revving OF spec
ulation although the low rates to which
call leans have fallen are in part a re-
suit of the recent stagnation OF thu
speculative demand. The leading feature
of tod3y's market was the announcement
Of tho decision Of the New Jersey court
in favor of tho right of the United States
Steel Corporation to convert a part OF
its preferred stock into bonds The
stocks of the corporation advanced
strongly on large dealings after the &C.
cision became known. Earlier in the day
the Reading stocks were the leaders Of
he market and their upward move
nent was said to be due to the expec-
tation that the first preferred stock is
to be restored to the per cent dividend
list and the voting trust dissolved, now
that the control is definitely lodged in
tho hands OF the Lake Shore and hc
Baltimore and Ohio.
It was very noticeable that the large
concurrent buying of Erie and Ontario
ard Western resulted in a very slight
price movement The Paciics, Grang ar6
and SouthwesternS moved upward in com
rany and this advance was attributed
to belief that the agreement arrived
at between the Rock Island and The
Union Pacific authorities would be q
