 Chicago Oct. 27.-Financiers and bankers of Chicago tonight look for ward with hopefuInsss to the probable continuance of present financial solv- ency of Chicago banks and trust com panies. passing their expectations on the prospective measures taken by the Clearing House Association last night in ordering the issuing of clear ing house certihcatess and the putting in force of the legal notice that may be required for the withdrawal of saw ings bank deposits. The Clearing House Association held long meet ing today to discuss the possible de- velopments in the present money string ency and to perfect details of the new plan adopted to ward off a possible scarcity of cash.
 Chicago bankers are discouraging speculation in stocks and grains and they predict that dealings in such in- vestments during the week will be scant as far as Chicago is concerned. The inability of savings bank deposit prs to withdraw money without thirty aays' notice will be an aid to the bank CTS in their desire to keep people from tying up Chicago money in securities that would be bought and paid for in the East.

The elub sought a writ 10 compel the

the commission. ia denying the Empire
Clubs application for racing dates, had
acted In an arbitrary and capricious man

charge unfounded.
The whole question TO be decided was
whether the powers of the racing com
missioners were limited or absolute. and
Judge Mills finds that the commission has
absolute power in granting licenses and
the court will not Interfere with its de-
cision.

II is the first time in the history of
baseball that the middies have defeated
Harvard. They are naturally jubiIant
over the achievement, while the Grim
sons feel the defeat with a corresponding
keenness. The strain of two games was
too much for the young sailor lads, and
Lafayette won. with little difficulty.
The regularly scheduled game for to-
day was with Lafayette. but the Pennsyl-
vanians were delayed in reaching Annap-
here. using the Academy grounds for a
weeks workout while on the Southern
trip. it was decided 10 have a practice
game until Lafayette got in.
The middies put up their best game of
the year They outbatted the Cambridge
men, and also fielded well. The winning
run was tailed in the sixth inning by
three punched hits and an error. Ian
phier, who did the twirling for Annapolis,
was in excellent form. and though he
gave three free passes, he held his oppo-
nents 10 one hit
The Crimsons' two runs were made in
the second inning, and were aided by "a

Harvard in the first inning. Ducey. the
