Nj. Bryan's Speech Bears" The
Stock Market.
VESTED INTERESTS" ARE UNEASY
The Stock Market Was Without a
Leader, But the Trading Element
Played For Reaction and Was APP
parentIy Successful.
tBy Associated Press,

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-After the
opening of today's market call money
opened at 8 per cent. and speedily adj.
vanced TO u. the highest price in sew.
eral months. AS result. the market
soon fell into a state OF nretia such
rs 1t had not shown for weeks before.
Afraid of Bryan.
Another influence which made for
lower prices was the speech of MIR.
Bryan. although Wall street professed
to regard that as mere incident. an
excuse anu not reason for selling
securities.
Nevertheless, 1t cannot be denied
that Mr.. Drynn's attitude offers small
comfort to the socallcd vested inter
ests and the financial community i'm
general.
Without Leader.
The stock market was without a
leader throughout the session, but the
trading element played for reaction
and SO far as any marked tendency
was discernible their tactics were
fairly successful except in the case
OF Union Pacific, which held well at
marked advance over the previous
days close, and some of the spe-
cinlties.
In this class was included Adams
Express, which on sale of one lot
recorded an advance of 80 points.
Some Significance attaches to the
rise In this stock in view of the
strength of kindred securities and the
very recent increase in the dividend
OF a rival concern, ana there were
intimations of closer community
OF interests"
Trading during the early session
was several hundred thousand shares
below the average Of Secent days and
IN the late session grew even smaller.
Call Loans Advance.
A further advance in call loans to
IL per cent. and no more definite
news as to gold engagements added
to the general feeling of discourage,
ment, which resulted in almost utter

EAST AGAINST WEST.
Much Interest in the Pennsylvania
Michigan Came

With the Cornell-Princeton game con-
cluded the intercollegiate world Is now
waiting with deep anxiety for the only In
tersectional game of Importance to be
played this year, that between Pennsyl-
vania and Michigan at Philadelphia on
November II. No matter at how many
angles the records Of the two teams are
compared there is absolutely nothing by
which to make any sort of fair compari-
son. Neither team plays a common op-
ponent, and western foot ball Is vastly diff
ferent from the eastern brand. The foot
ball authorities of both universities may
make public their hard luck tales, but the
college world knows how much they are
to be discounted and realizes that when
these two teams clash both will be at their
best.
II IL remarkable how the sentiment Of the
entire country is divided over the game.
Although Michigan has enemies In the west
and Pennsylvania the same in the east the
college men OF the two ssctions irrespec-
tive Of all other ties. are roofing hard for
the representatives OF their sections. Neither
team claims to hold the championship o.
It's section. but both have at different times
held the undisputed right to this proud
title. and are certainly a. strong al any

Special Dispatch to The Star
BALTIMORE. Md. October 27-In a
close and holly contested game, the Army
and Navy Prep School of Washington to-
day defeated the Boys Latin School at the
Maryland Oval by the score of 9 to 5. The
locals were slightly outweighed by the Wis
itors. The game was brilliantly played, it
being devoid Of roughness and fumbling.
Sadler and Robins carried off the glory
for the Boys Latin School, while Cunning
ham and Mclean played a star game for
the capital city boys.
The Army and Navy won the toss and
kicked off, Sadler and Robins carried the
ball down the field to the ten-yard line,
where II was lost on downs. Cunningham
punted. The ball was then punted back
and forth a few times until Cunningham
caught a punt on the five-yard line and
ran for twenty yards.
On the next down the Props were held,
and then Cunningham punted forty yards.
After a gain of about forty yards by Robins
Sadler punted over the goal line. The
Army and Navy man caught the ball. but
when he was tackled he dropped it and
Stonewerk fell on it. making a touchdown
for the Latin School. Sad.er failed at the
goal.
In the second half Sadler kicked off. but
the Props lost the ball on tumble. Wilson
falling on it, Sadler punted. as did Cum
bingham.
Sadler tried to punt again. but the line
kicked toward the Latin Schools line.
1t was finally forced over the goal line.
Cunningham kicked the goal, winning the
game for the WaShingtonans

track was heavy for several days 1t has
dried out and will be On first-class shape
when the meeting begins. The course is
faster than it was last spring. and with the
good class of horses that will race some
track records are likely to be broken.
Among the recent arrivals at the track

this one game In view. For Michigan II

Wolverines would sooner lose all the other
games on their schedule. If by doing
they could down the Quakers. But Penn
has a harder task. Not only must the
Quakers be in tiptop form to overthrow
the Michigan giants. but they must have
enough reserve strength to win their final
game OF the year from the whirlwinj Cor
nell team. which plays at Philadelphia on
Thanksgiving day. To keep the Pennsyl-
vania team in shape this long will require
all the skill that Trainer Mike Murphy
possesses.
On form. the Michigan team looks like
the likely winners. The Pennsylvania elev-
en- has been scored on in nearly every game
thus far played; has been beaten once. and
tied again. Michigan, of course, had a
load of trouble to defeat Ohio State. their
only points being a field goal and safety.
But Michigan was not trying to run up a
score. so that this game is no criterion
of It's strength.

While the Varsity and Washington and

Just after the kickoff in the first half. The
Props received the ball on their 10-yard

downs. They immediately recovered the
oval on downs From this point Languir, at

around the right end for the only touch
down of the contest. The half was ended
with the ball in the possession of the
juniors.
In the second half Georgetown kicked
off to Western. The latter was held for
two downs and punted, and for the re-

MICHIGAN ANGRY.
Resentment at Ann Arbor Over Sus-
pected Discrimination.

Eastern men are just now very much
interested in the report from Ann Arbor
that Michigan. angered at the discrmina-
ton which she charges is being made
against her by other members of the Big
Nine" will get out OF that association and
join the eastern universities. where her
students think she will receive fairer treat
ment. AS Michigan has been the virtual
leader In every form OF sport IN the west
it would secm rather foolhaydy thing
for the Wolverines to DO. should they ally
themselves in the east. One OF the things
for which Michigan is the most i1censed
Is the acton OF Chicago in canceling the
annual foot ball game with NJ chigan on
the plea that no big games were to be play
cd this year. and then signing a contract
to play Minnesota. quite as big a proposi-
ton as the Michigan team.
Foot ball officials IN the middle west are
ha virg hard time to agree what shall
constitute hurding. which has been pro-
hib.tsd by the new rules. In the Chicago
Purdue game and the Michigan-Ohio game

ruled that man hurdled even when he

SPRINGFIELD. Mass. October 27-
Though there was no scoring done in the
annual game between Williams and Dart
mouth. played here today for the first
time Williams sprang a big surprise by
having the best of the battle. AS an ex-
hibition of foot ball the game was crude
affair. Williams claims she should have
won, 2 to 0. but the officials ruled that what
Williams claimed was a safety should go
as a touchback
Neither team was able to make much
Roadway on either line or end plays, and
there was an abundance Of punting, with
honors even between the rival captains
Waters for Williams and Glaze for Dart
mouth. Only once did Dartmouth show a
snatch of her last years form, and that
was when she held Williams for downs
when late In the first half the ball had been
taken to the Dartmouth courtyard line.
