SELLING ORDERS
CROWD MARKET
Early Price Movement To-
ward Level.
LONDON HEAVY SELLER
Unloads Railroads-Bankers Demand
Sharp Concessions From Rus
sia for New Loan.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-There were
heavy selling orders in the stock mar
ket az the opening and during the first
hour, and price movements in that
period were generally to lower levels.
Declines ranging from Il to 1 II points
were sustained in many OF the leading
issues and for time the trading had
q sloppy appearance.
London was a heavy seller OF Union
Pacific. Steel. Erie, and Canadian Pa
cific. about $1,000 shares in all. In Lon
don there were rumors that ]. p Nor
gan was i'll and II was supposed the
London selling was based On these re-
ports.
A report was also current that Russia
is making urgent efforts to place its new
loan, but that bankers demand sharp
concessions in prices. Some uneasiness
was also created by intimations that
speculation would be disturbed by the
break IN Chica~o subway. The buying
by room traders and some pool orders
caused a general rally on which most
OF early losses were recovered and in
recent trading the market tone was firm
TO strong Government bonds were un-
changed: railroad and other bonds firm.

TWIN GOT VERDICT
OVER TOMMY BURNS
Won on Points in Twenty
Fast Rounds.
WINNER SHOWED NO MARKS
But Loser Had Bad Eye and Bloody
Nose-Weight Against Bos-
ton Boy.

LOS ANGELES. Oct. 1S.-After twenty
rounds of hard fighting, Jack (Twin)
Sullivan, of Boston, was given the de-
cision over Tommy Burns. of Detroit,
at the Pacific Athletic Club pavilion last
night.
1t was a hard, vicious battle. but
Sullivan earned the decision by out
pointing his young opponent. and just
at the close of the last round the Bos-
ton boy scored clean knockdown with
left jolt to the jaw. Referee Eyton
raised Sullivan's glove in the air, and
there was not a dissenting voice IN the
big crowd of 1900 spectators.
Sullivan was handicapped in the
weight, tipping the scales at 1854
pounds at o'clock. while Burns weigh
ed 159L, and was easily ten pounds the
heavier when they entered the ring.
Tommy was by no means out at the
wind-up, but he had met man too
clever for him. and while he was always
coming on making hard fight. Sullivan
blocked many of his leads and reached
Burns stomach repeatedly with left

marks on his body, Twin bore no marks
of the battle while aaI Burns ci1sn hao a oieed-

At the start, Sullivan sailed along with
a slight lead but after the fifth Burns
picked up and forced Sully hard In the
twelfth round Sullivan by planting his

The eighteenth was a slashing round
with both men fighting hard The hon
ors were about even. The nineteenth
was another slasher, and at the hell in
the last. Burns went in TO make whirl-

the time. and as the end drew near Sui

For the first time In a fortnight call
money yesterdsy failed to touch per
cent. and the floor traders and other
professionals seized the opportunity af-
fcrded by the prevailing IA per cent
rate to rush the prices OF a few special
ly selected stocks temporarily TO higher
levels. The movement, which bore the
thumbmarks Of manipulation. was OF
short duration. for although the call-loan
rate decreased fractionally as the dav
progressed, a further startling advance
of Is points in foreign exchange COM
bined with a general rise in continental
discounts. emphasized in unpalatable
form the view that the period of our
financial stringency is by no means

The information. apparently OF good
authority, that the dividend rate OF The
Amalgamated Copper Company would
not be raised at today's meeting of the

from a well-known Boston source that
the rate was TO be raised TO s per cent
annually. which prediction seemed 10
