YALE ADVICE TO HARVARD

New Haven. Dec. 10-The Yale News
ia leading editorial discusses Har-
wards oft-rcpeated question. What can
we do to beat Nale?" After saying thar
the majority Of the answers 10 this cues
tion is that Harvard must regard foot
ball from "A more businesslike standpoint
than she does at present and comment
ing upon Harvard's decision of last year
in regard 20 the English and American
systems of athletics The Yale News
says. in part:
We are inclined 90 agree with Harvard
opinion. Yale is "A businesslike place. an
earnest place; il does things with all its
might. because it is the result OF its
traditions and conditions. and We be-
lieye that i'm this characteristic il re-
fleets the attitude OF the average Ameri-
can college. II intensity BE- fault Il
is an American fault, but il is undoubt-
edly the SECRET Of our success. and while
Harvard completes for success as the
American understands the term she must
share il. fault or virtue. Il would an
pear 20 an outside observer that the in
tcnsity Of feeling which marked the fort
night previous TO the Yale game al
tt-HlDilcSe was rather a late dem0nStr8-
ton on the part Of the college and the
coaches. Are We mistaken iE believing
that the same determined, buslnesslike
bending Of energy toward the final re-
suits OF the season was not apparent
until after the Carlisle game2
u is only 10 a lack of this spirit that
We can attribute the Harvard prob
lem Both colleges are fed by prepara-
tory schools of equal strength. and both
have equal material at their command
for team and coaching staff There is
no condition at Yale which is not capable
Of duplication at Harvard
The News then says that Yale. il is
true. has the assistance OF Walter
Camp. but that a dozen Walter Camps
would not bring success TO Yale teams
if it We're not for the aforesaid busi-
ness spirit in athletics" Then comes the
following, which may or may not be
significant:
While Yale would have deeply re-
gretted TO have lost Harvard as an in
terconegiate rival. il would have been
an interesting experiment if Harvard
had given up intercollegiate contests
Would the acknowledged advantages Of
the spOrt-for-s spOrt-and-nothi thing-else"
ideal have cutweighed those of the pres

In conclusion. The News advises Har-

STOCKS AGAIN DECLINE.
New Haven Road Makes Further Drop
 to 140 1-2.

New York, Sept. 26--The declining tendency of prices of stocks to-day was more marked than yesterday, although there was little change in the charac- ter of the market for it's dullness and narrow professionalism The incl dents most harped upon were the poor reception given to the announcement
 of the subscription privileges on the New York, New Haven and Hartford stock and the approach of the October first settlements in the money market
 The low temperatures in the west and
 the news that the head of the Union Pacific system had undergone an op- eration were also employed by the lbears with some effect in their aggres- sive operations Pressure centered
 against the Pacifics and grangers, and there were also some heavy offerings fof United States Steel. That stock and
 the coppers were comparatively firm
 however. New York, New Haven and Hartford made a further decline to 140 1-2, a figure lower than has been touched for many years and the rights were dealth in on the curb at 2 7-S which would point to a still lower val uation.. The proposed new stock issue proves larger than was anticipated and the issue price at 125 compares with an expectation that the offer would be at 150, as was the preceding issue. The fall in the stock dashed
 the newly growing confidence in the betterment of the investment situation.
 On the other hand, some items of the
 days news served to confirm this feel ing of confidence. The news bearing
 on the market was decidedly mixed in
 complexion throughout
 It was reported that considerable
 sales have been effected to foreigners of the Union Pacific convertible bonds
 since the dissolution of the underwrit- ing syndicate and also of the New
 York city 1-2 per cent bonds. The
 strength shown by these issues in the last few days has been a marked fea- ture of the market Such a develop
 ment would help to explain the violence
 of the decline in foreign exchange,
 which was extended to-day. The local
 money market showed premonitory l symptoms of me strain of the October
 settlements. Estimates of the amount
 of disbursements to be made here in-
 dicate dividend and interest payments
 of $140000,000. The rise in the call loan
 rate to per cent. was the reflection of : coming needs. Time loans were unaf-
 fected. A further recovery in the Lon- don price of copper and in copper se- curities there helped that group to re-
 sist the depression here.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales pal
 value $1,772,O0O.
 U. $. bonds were unchanged on cau

As to the long maturities in money loaning, the strong point was the four months period, for which transactions were made at 6 per cent. on mixed and s 1-2 per cent. on industrlals. Mixed money closed at 6 per. cent. bid, with only limited offerings. There was some yielding for six months, loans having been made at 5 1-2 per cent on first mortgage railroad and city bonds, at , S-4 per cent. on regular mixed collaterals, and at per cent. on half railroad and half industrial stocks.

OBJECTION TO ERIE WARRANTS.
stoclShoIder Expected to File Brief
 Under Public Service Law.


 A brief is expected to be filed next week in the interest of Leonard Schmidt of Chicago, a holder of 1,5O0 shares of Erie first preferred stock, to prevent the issue of dividend warrants, payable in 19l7 as decided on several weeks ago. This will be the first ac- tion under section 55 of the new Public Service law.
 This law forbids any company incor- porated in New York to issue stock, bonds, or other certificates of indebt- edness, payable more than twelve months from date of issue, without the consent of the commission. One pur- pose of the law was to prevent the is- sue of watered stock. The case is re- garded as highly important, because II will establish a precedent for subse- quert action
