FINANCE AND
COMMERCE

New York, Feb. 3.-The stock
market lapsed into a~pathetic condition
again today after a den onstratlon of
the futility of attempts to extend the
inward movement OF yesterday. The
demand from the shorts left
ed after the selling of the ed of the
last week vas early exhausted and
there was no further insight. Out
side of the account seemed 10 be with
GENERATORS. boil the long and short
sdc OF the account seemed to be with
out attraction. There was a good
deal of interest in the action Of the
California legislature on the bill to
scgrcgate japanese children in the
public schools, regarding which no
news was received from Sacramento
during the stock. market session. A
fact which detracts from the influ-
ence which the sensational passages
concerning Japanese relations might
otherwise have is the sustained
strength Of the japanese government
bonds, the upward increment of
which was resumed today in foreign
markets on account Of the favorable
outlook for Japanese finances.
Appreciation in market prices Of
these securities is not considered
compatible with any serious threat to
the maintenance or the friendly for
eign relations of the Japanese gov
eminent. The action of the money
market precluded any anxiety over the
outlook in that field, such as was sug-
gested by the complexion of last
Saturdays bank statement. The
banks have completed the payment
of the January cali for government
deposits and the additional call for
sac. 0OO, 900 for February seems to
cause no uncasness ,as the running
deficit in the government revenues
makes prompt returns of funds to the
channels Of the circulation. The pro
cess of piling up the reserves of the
Bank of England is showing its eff
feet in relaxing the money situation
abroad. Meantime stock market
speculation is making nc demands on
New York money supplies and com
mercial requirements are very light.

High Private Going After
Arcadia Derby

The California derby winner, High
Private. will be shipped to Arcadia
next week, with the winning of the
Los Angeles derby in view. f. A.
Forsythe, owner of the colt, authorized
this announcement. yesterday High
Private yesterday showed no trace of
the lameness with which he came out
of Mondays classic and Raleigh Col
ston, his trainer, said that the horse
would be ready to run again tomorrow
should occasion require it.
1t develops that his lameness of Mon
day was not due to the foot ailment
which gave his trainer considerab BILE
trouble earlier in the season, but was
the result of having been jumped OH
by Pa1o Alto, another of the derby con-
testants, one of whose plates inflicted
a wound on one of High Private's feet
High Private will have to pick up
five pound penalty in the Los Angeles
derby for having won Mondays derby
which will bring his impost up to 124 ,
while his adversaries will get in with
the same weight as in the California
derby. Forsythe is confident of High
Privates ability to win the Arcadia
stake just as easily as he did Mondays
feature at Emeryville. He has no hesi-
fancy in declaring that High Private
Is the best horse that he ever devel-
ever since the colt outworked Berry
Maid in sensational fashion In his early
two year old form.
In spite of the esteem in which local
rAcegoers have learned to hold High
Private, Forsythe has an idea that the
fails to realize what a classy horse the
derby winner of 1909 really is.

Reed. who plays forward, is a sure shot
at the basket On this long tour he
has averaged eight baskets to the
game and has thrown 65 per
cent of his foul shots. Shaw at center
has proven himself to be the best at
that position in the United States,
never falling in a single game to out

Weight Dispute

Monte Attelrs clever victory over
game Jimmy Reagan has boosted his
stock and the little fellow is recog-
nized as the boxer being most entitled
to measure prowess with Johnny Cou-
Ion for the bantam weight title. Jim
Coffroth has been angling for Cou-
lon, and he expects to land him for
Attell-
Attel was around yesterday and his
features showed that he been through
grueling mill. His lips and nose
were considerably puffed up and he
also showed a couple Of badly discol-
ored optics. Reagan was around town,
too. but outside of being battered about
the face, he did not show any other
III effects of the terrific battle at
Colma.

as the Chicago boxer has been taking
on weight this figure may be agree
able TO him. If these men could be
brought together the question as TO
who is the bantam champion would be
settled Tor a long time, with victory
for either. Coffroth has been in COM

ments are offered.
REAGAN WANTS RETURN
Charley cleaver. who is managing
Reagan, is anxious TO get another tight
for his man with Attell, and he has
posted $1,000 with Jim coffroth as a
side bet that Reagan can take the
measure of Monte. Cleaver says that
he does not want to take any credit
away from Attell. but he says Reagan
was III and he did not have chance
to fit himself properly for the battle.
he says that the boy asked him to
have the battle postponed, but he did
not want TO disappoint Conroth, and
he figured that Reagan was good
enough to win anyway. and induced
