SELLING Movement Begins

with the first word of the decision there
ensued a general selling movement, which
at times bordered Generalization. Not
only were all the early gains wiped out,
but net losses for the day ranged from /
to 0 or more points. There was some in
dication OF a rally in the hnal'trading, but
this was offset by further liquidation, and
the closing was weak.
The bank statement showed some extra
ordinary differences In actual and average
conditions In the latter loans decreased
by over $1,000 600, while in the actual con-
ditlon loans were increased by almost $780,
600. There were corresponding Increases
and decreases in the reserves. but on the
whole the bank position for the week may
be said to have strengthened.
More gold for shipment to South America
was announced, making exports to that
country for the week more than $6,000,009.
Gossip included rumors of serious friction
among the leading interests In the Rock

TIES WITH CHICAGO
Possession of Second Place Among
Western Teams Is Therefore
Undecided

CHICAGO. Nov 2O-Wisconsin and Chicago
bGttled to a sensational 6-to-6 tie on Marshall
field today, and when the final whistle blew
there was no advantage. Both teams scored
Ia the first half, but the second half was a
futile battle to push the ball across either
goal line.
The result of the game leaves possession of
second place among the western teams unde-
cided This is the second 6-to-6 tie Chicago
has played within the last eight days. Both
teams played raggedly at times and neither
showed any great football ability.

we're cinnamon rolls pumpkin pie and

CsoaS Won BueIOW.

Berlin, July 15.-Dr. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg has been appointed chancel-
lor of the empire in succession to
Prince Won Buelow.
Various other cabinet changes were
gazetted Herr Delbrueck of the in
terror department succeeds DR.. Won
Bethmann-lIollweg as minister of the
interior and vice chancellor; Reinhold
Sydow, secretary of the imperial treas
ury, goes to the department of COM
merce; Herr Wermuth, under secre-
tary for the interior under DR.. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, becomes secretary
of the treasury, and Ludwig Hole,
Prussian minister of public instruc-
ton, retires on account of i'll health
and is succeeded by Won Trott zu
Solz, president of the province of
Brandenburg. Count Won Loebell,
chief of the imperial chancellory, has
been appointed president of Branden-
burg.
DR.. Won -Hollweg, in his
political principles. is a mild Con-
servatiye, but he is most particular in
the application to himself of the ira
ditional policy that the servants of
the crown must be nonpartisan. The
new chancellor's speeches on social
questions since he has been minister
of the interior have been liberal in
tone This was particularly marked
in an address in which he condemned
certain aspects of morality in Berlin
and defended warmly the German
worlmen's need for proper recreation.
Dr. Won Bethmann-Hollweg has de-
voted himself to improving the condi-
tion of the artisan class. Since he
