Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
MADISON, December 23.-Phil King and
Eddie Holt, the Princeton combination that
worked so well this season as the coaching
force of the University of Wisconsin foot
ball team, will return to Madison next fall
and strive against Yost. Stage and Williams
for the middle western gridiron champion
ship. This announcement was made au-
thoritatively by Capt. E. J. Yanderboom
and is confirmed by the other members of
the team.
1t is said that the coaches were eager to
remain, but remained coy for time until
some assurances of increased salary were
forthcoming. No action has been taken on
the subject of salaries or contracts for
next year, but 1t is understood that Kings
salary will be increased from $1,000 and a
contingent fund of $500 to a round 5000.
Holt got 81 600 for this season. and no fig
ure Is stated as his remuneration In case
he returns. But the assurance is said to
have been given him that after another
year as assistant he is to be made head
coach when King retires for good from the
game.
The coaches would like another deal They
lost by four points to Chicago after their
team had outplayed the Maroons. They
lost to Michigan by one straight touchdown
and a fiuke. They practically lost their en-
tire team, but they think that with the ma
terial at Madison and the outlook at the
other universities In the future they can
easily make good.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Weekly Shipments of Wheat Had Bull
ish Effect

CHICAGO, December 23-An estimated
decrease of large proportions in the weekly
shipments of worlds wheat had a bullish
effect today on the wheat market here. At
the close wheat for May delivery was up
&c. Corn was off CSC. oats were I'M
changed and provisions showed gain of
1919 to 80.
Trading in the wheat pit was very light,
but the market, after the first half hour,
had a firm undertone. At the opening SEN
timent was somewhat bearish because of
improved weather for the movement of the
crop In the northwest. Offerings, however,
were readily taken by commission houses
and shorts. This soon resulted in a firmer
feeling. Purchases Of the May delivery by
prominent bulls also strengthened the mar
ket. The most influential of the days news
was the estimate by an English statistician
that the total exports Of wheat from all
countries for the week amounted to 5000, 900
bushels, a large reduction from the ship
ments OF last week. After fiuCtuating with
a 13c. range the market closed firm May
opened unchanged to a shade lower at SIC.
to S7aS71sc., sold up to SI%saS712c. and closed
at 7kaSTssc. Clearances of wheat and
-four were equal to coo bushels. Primary
receipts were $4,000 bushels, compared with
holiday last year. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of $50 cars,
Sentiment in the corn pit was somewhat
beaFish because of the situation in the De-
cember delivery. The fact that the move
ment of the crop shows a tendency to in
crease and that larger percentage of the
receipts is of contract grade was q depress-
ing influence Trading was small and IVES
confined chiefly to commission houses. The
close was steady. May opened a shade
lower. at 441sc., sold between 44a441sc. and
44Ac. and closed at the lowest point of the
day. Local receipts were 400 cars, with
% of contract grade.
Moderate demand by commission houses
and pit traders held the oats market steady
Aside from some selling early in the day
from cash houses, offerings were light. Ex-
port trade was reported as slightly i'm
proved. May opened unchanged at 31% AL &c.
sold up to 327sc. and closed at 313la31Ac
Local receipts were PA cars.
Active buying by packers caused strength
in provisiotlS. a decrease in local stocks be-
cause of heavy shipments of meat and lard
strengthened the situation. At the close
May pork was up 30c., at 1890. Lard was
up 1212c., at 7.50aI 5212. Ribs were 15c.
higher, at 7.3712aT.40.

LONDON MARKET.
expectation Of Dull Week Fully
Realized.

Special Cablegram to The Star
LONDON, December 23.-The expectation
that this would be dull week on the
STOCK exchange was fully realized. Moth
ing happened of a stimulating nature to
disturb the quiet of what really has been
the holiday week. Wha tever influences the
markets felt were of a sort to discourage
trading. The news from Russia and Prime
Minister Campbell Bannermans Albert
Hall utterances were both regarded as de-
pressing in character. but nobody could
say the effect Of either on the volume Of
business or price tendencies was very great.
AS rule the prices at the end Of the week
We're above the lowest of the week, though
In many cases they showed a slight falling
Off from last Saturdays closing figures.
Changes in the money market conditions
no doubt caused the upward movement,
which begsn as soon as it was known that
the banks return would be rather better
than had been looked for. The course of
the consols market distinctly reflected this
betterment in the money situation. AS soon
as the apprehension Of the higher interest
rate had been quoted, consols passed the
50 mark and held the gain at the close.
Some of the other gilt-edged stocks also
moved UP trifie, but most of them closes
lower than last week, a possible eXplana-
ton being that investment buying, which
constituted the bulk of the business this
week, seemed TO be conferred in the coz
soils department. The foreign government
stocks were not wanted and fell off trifle
in quotations. British rails suffered from
lack of demand, and about all OF them were
marked down fractionally.
The failures of Chicago banks seemed to
worry those naturally interested in Ameri-
cans, and with the exception Of Northern
Pacific and Union Pacific, there were no
notable advances, while on the other hand

A Harvard Editors Protest.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, December 2S-The
Harvard Bulletin protests against the ac-
ton of the athletic committee in declaring
Coburn eligible to play base ball as follows:
I'VE believe the Harvard athletic commit
tee has made another mistake in deciding
that Coburn may play on the university
base ball nine next spring. There seems to
be no doubt that under the strict and pre-
else Interpretation of the rules he is eligible,
but we submit that the committee should
have said that he had already PLAYED long
enough. The action of the athletic
committee has called for some unfayor-
able comment from some of our rivals and
from the public. In our opinion that is one

Bulls Not the Only Plungers.

1t would be easy to explain the preva-
lence Of market paradoXes lately If the
only bulls We're reckless plungers of the
John w. Gates type. But this is not the
case. For example, the Guggenheims, who
have made such fabulous profits in the
stock market this year, are shrewd bust
ness men who have successfully managed
the affairs Of u corporation that is as near
ly an industrial trust as can exist in this
country. The rise in the Smelter stock may
seem sensational and therefore dangerous,
to outsiders. But it is more than likely
that the Guggenheims know what they are
doing. Carping critics have pocketed losses
and remarked: Just wait until they try
to market the stock they've had to buy to
put the price up to where ii is" But that
is the one thing that has least bothered
the Smelter magnates, and from their talk
the inference is plain that by the time
they are ready to reduce their holdings of
the stock the company's earnings will fully
justify the prevailing prices, If indeed they
do not do so already.
1t is altogether Il perplexing situation,
because If it is true that the market ig-
nores the danger signals which in the old
days used to produce severe chills, it is
also true that the country at large is ire
mendously prosperous A diamond dealer
who does a considerable Wall street bust
ness told me he had done more business by
$780, 600 in November and part of December
this year than in all 1903, and more than
he did all last year This years sales
were his biggest. That only means pros
perity among the speculs tors, but a dealer
in furs. whose trade is With what may be
called the rich middle class, says that never
before has he sold SO many furs nor at
such high prices as this season. 1t may
be that furs are especially fashionable, but
the fact remains that the husbands or
fathers of the fur Wearers could pay for
them. Altogether Santa Claus has been
%ery good to Wall street this year, and no
matter if one of the packages he has left
behind contains dynamite, to be heard from
later, stocks have gone up and money has
been made, and the public at large is not
yet insane.

THE INSIDE OF
WALL STREET
By EDWIN LEFEvRE.

In answer to the question: What do you
think about the money market" the presi-
dent of one Of the foremost banks in Amer
lea said today: Il don't knew anything
about the money market" He went on to
point out the failure of the Walsh banks
In Chicago. the rates of cali money In New
York and the way tho market more than
recovered over night the losses sustained
the morning the Suspension was announced.
1t was too much for him. Warnings, he
felt. We're disregarded presidents ignored,
common sense violated. The leader of the
clique that has made the most money In
the stock market this year expressed his
opinion of the situation as follows: mot
one man In ten thousand realizes how rich
the country is You can't imagine what
our companies ere doing wouldn't dare
to tel you for fear you'd suspect me of
trying to unload stocks on you 1t surpasses
my widest anticipations and the outlook
Is much more than bright. It's immense .
Ihese are the two extremes of the types
or Zig men. Their divergent views on
the situation are characteristic and each
has numerous sdherents. But 1t will be
observed that both look to the stock market
to corroborate their words; they expect
their views to be reflected by the course
or security priees. One is right and has
made millions. The other is wrong: but he
says, Just wait" The two camps In Wall

speeches In the meantime the market con-
tinues to .eXasrerate the conservatives

Rise in Union Pacific.

croWo thaC controls the property and has

claims all completely in the matter. One
of the leaders of it said: 1.-THE public is
simply crazy. The wise man will wait I'M
I'll The public RECEIVERS sanity before he does
anything in the stock market" That is
as nearly a bear speech as constructive
hnancters ever permit themselves. 1t
seems lncomprehensible to the lay mind
that Mr.. Hartman should not like to see his
pet stock sell too high; or that he could
not stop the rise if he We're so minded But
the public, which Is everybody is greater
than anybody. and it can take the bit in
Its mouth and run away. The recollection
of what happened in the Northern Pacific
corner alone prevents the Hartman clique
from expressing It's dispeasure at the over
sangufne bulls by means of the tape. They
can sell their own stock only to 4 certain
point; beyond that the control would come
on the market.
Mr.. Hartman and his banking allies
have, 1t IS no secret to say. fortified them
selves against operations similar to their
own in Northern Pacific in 1901. But they
are powerless to punish plungers who do
not ask permission to make the Hartman
people richer at this time, which is to say
richer against their will. In this instance,
Mr.. Hartman, with the philosophical calm
ness and sweet temper which he evinced
before the Armstrong committee last week,
whether he likes 1t or not, is obliged to
see strangers put up his own stock. To
Mr.. Hartman this is almost lese majestic,
but he must bottle up his dlspleasure, at
imminent danger of a fatal explosion, be-
cause spectators say what the stock shall
do. He must bide his time until, as his
closest associates say, the public comes to
its sane senses; because 1t may not. be the
public but some enemy who may be the real
buyer of Union Pacific.
