NEW YORK, Dec. 24-There was

The demand became almost stag

the common belief that such buy

These profits on the short side have
proved attractive in the recent de-

leaves 1t correspondingly weaker
from technical standpoint Some
part must be allowed to the eve
OF the holidays for profound neglect
into which the market fell in the
late trading. Many brokers left the

rush of liqulaati0n during the first

an ugly significance.
The rallys were on meagre deal

ment to take advantage of cessation
of the more urgent selling press
ure. A notable feature of the drop
in prices was the comparative ease
of the call money market during

Cambridge. Mass. Oct. 23.-In less than ten
plays the Harvard varsity football team to-day
smashed through the second line for three
touchdowns and a safety. The first team was
wellnigh invincible In the scrimmages. which
lasted about fifteen minutes Half of this time
was spent with the second team the offence
to test the strength OF the first eleven In guard
ing the goal line. Not an impression could the Sec
ond team make against their opponents, who
threw them back repeatedly for losses and kept
the second from making ten yards In fourteen
downs.
For several minutes OF the scriInmage tho
play was regular football During this time
tho varsity rushed the ball down the field three
times for a score, once on forward pass The
work was the best seen on the field this fall.

Not Ready to Make Statement ON
Challenge for America's Cup.

While 1t is practically certain that Sir Thomas
Upton will challenge again for the Americas
Cup he did nothing and said nothing yesterday
that could be construed into definite statement
to that effect. He spent the day visiting friends
in the city, and said he was not ready to mako a
definite statement regarding a challenge He
added. however, that when the proper time came
he might have something to say that would be
OF interest to all yachtsmen.
There are only two British designers available
to design cup challenger. They are William
Fife and Alfred Mylne, and neither of these is
willing to design a freak boat. nor does Sir
Thomas desire to bring that type of boat across
the Atlantic to race again. The present rule of
the New York Yacht Club has produced in the
schooner Queen, the sloop Effort, and some 9TH
ers. wholesome type OF boat that is both safe
and speedy, and II is on this class of yacht that
Fife and Mylne are ready and anxious to try
their skill. In case challenge is accepted. It Is
almost certain that Denny Brothers, of Dunbar
ton, Scotland, will build one or both of the
