heavy, a Thousand shares being the Gus

test of the market. although St Paul.

movement for the advance gave signs or
disintegration after the turn IN Union

was made of rumors that the financing

Grated reports that the reorganization of
some Of the properties in that group, row

and weakened a sharp fraction after tn"
official announcement regarding the cut

reaction in the Hartman Pacifics came
after the publication of the May earnings
which showed for Union Pacific reduc-

Bermuda Race
Will Start Today

Marblehead, Mass, June at seems
probable from present Indications that
there will be no yaWl class in the Mar
blehead-Be Bermuda ocean race. Most of
the yachts have assembled but the
yawl Lila from Brooklyn, N. Y, has
not put in an appearance. If she does
not start in the race the Little Hope
of Boston, owned by P. x. Lohtrop,
Jr.. would be the only boat in the
yawl class. Yachtsmen here believe
that in that event Mr.. Lothrop will
decide not to make the trip.
Everything seems favorable for to-
morrow's start The big knockabout
Warehouses of Philadelphia, one of the
competing yachts, arrived today from
Bristol, r. l., where she has been fit
ted out. The official measurer of the
club has not completed his work, SC
that the time allowances of the several
contestants have not yet been figured

able. If the northwest wind holds and

kETCHELL FOULED JACK TWIN,
HIS BROTHER MIKE SAYS

Boston, June mike CTwin) Sulli-
van arrived home at 615 last night
from San Francisco, after an absence
of about 10 months He looks bigger
and stronger than he ever did in his
life and is ready for another battle
with any man i'm his class. While in
California he won three battles and
lost to Stanley Ke1chell. In regard to
that defeat. Mike does not take any
credit away from ketchell, but when
the latter fought Brother Jack he
should have been disqualified in the
sixth round according to Mike. "He
struck Jack several foul blows says
Mike, "and any fair referee would have
given the battle to Jack on that ac-
count
"Ketchell is strong, hard-hitting
fellow, but he is liable to lose on a foul
any time. l have never seen Papke in
action, but if he has a good right hand
he will beat Ketchell.'
Mike has no match on at present, but
while stopping over in Denver few
days last week the promoters tried to
sign him to meet Harry Lewis just
outside of that city in July. Mike sub
mitted terms, but the promoters could
not see their way to accept them, so
Mike continued on his journey home.
