New York, September 27.-There
was a severe break in the cotton mar
ket today under general liquidation,
with the close weak at net decline
of 2S to 3S points. The greatest
weakness was late in the day, stead
lily sagging market uncovering stop
loss orders, and leading to consider
able excitement.
The opening was irregular at an
advance of points to a decline of Z
points, near months being relatively
firm at the start in response to the
high cables but soon easing with the
latter position under liquidation in
the absence of bull support. The fall
ure of any of the big market leaders
to come to the assistance Of the mar
ket tended to increase the disposition
of smaller bulls to take profits, while
some of Saturdays buyers seemed to
be disappointed that the tropical
storm had not reached the cotton belt
over Sunday Then, too, there was
naturally some inclination to even up
accounts before the publication Of the
government report on Monday. AT
any rate and while there were slight
reactions the general tendency of the
market was downward and in the last
half hour offerings became extremely
heavy with December contracts SELL
ing off to 1917. and January to 1914,
or about 29 to 32 points net lower.
This represented reaction of nearly
$500 per bale from the high records
made last Friday. but the market de-
Veloped no rallying power and closed
at practically the lowest figures of the
day Manchester advices claimed that
the higher prices were checking busi-
ness in goods, but generally speaking,
reportS from dry goods circles were
considered encouraging, and the de-
cline was quite commonly attributed
to an over extension of the scattering
long interest and a temporary with
drawal of bull support following the
recent sensational advance.
Receipts at the ports today 6O,453
bales, against 4S,320 last week and
54,010 last year. For the week 800,
900 bales, against 277,1O4 last week
and 34O.543 last year. Today's re-
ceipts at New Orleans 5,2S1 bales
against 5.767 last year and at Hous-
ton 33.793 against 14,1OO bales last
year.

MOST SUCCESSFUL
A.A.U. YEAR ENDS
President Everett c. Brown
Sees Still Brighter Pros
poets for Sport i'm 1910

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The year 1903
has been the most successful ever
known in the history of outdoor
and indoor sports, according to Pres
ident Everett C. Brown of the Amateur
athletic union, whose first annual ath-
letic review has just been made public.
THE prospects for 1910" he con-
tinues, ARE more promising than any
year within my. recollection, and 1 look
for the greatest boom ever expert
enced in athletics.
1.-The first important national athletic
events will be the wrestling, gym
nastic and basket ball championships.
All Of these championships have been
allotted to Chicago. The national in
door championships will be divided up
among the large swimming clubs in
New York, Boston, st. Louis and Chi
cago, as these are the centers of the
sport.
''One reason why Chicago is so par
ticuIarly favored in the national events
is that the national body appreciates
that it will be necessary to keep ath-
letics especially active in this section,
owing to some little anita gonism which
has developed and which is localized
in Chicago In fact, efforts are being
made to put a rebel organization into
power.
The amateur national track and field
championships for 1910 probably will
be held in New Orleans. The commit
tee thought it wise to stimulate the
sport in that section Of the country"

ANOTHER MARATHON
RUNNER IS COMING
Henri St. Yves, Noted French
Distance Burner, Wants TO
Meet Johnny Hayes

The success of the last marathon
race, which was held here few weeks
ago and won by Johnny Hayes, has
added little ginger to this form of
sport, and now other stars over the
26 mile route are heading for this city.
Henri ST. Yves, who startled New
York by entering one of its long dis
tance races unheralded, and defeating &
some of the foremost runners of the
country, is planning to visit this city.
He stands ready TO meet Hayes, Fitz-
gerald or any other of the distance
runners.
St Yves defeated John Marsh, the
Canadian champion, over Is mile
course at Seattle a few days ago after

C[NTURYS TO MEET
WINGED VS. AGAIN
Oakland Eleven Will Attempt
TO Regain Lost LaureIs, on
New Years Day

On New Years day the football eleven
land will journey to Vallejo to play
its return game with the Winged VS. of
that town. This will be the second
game of series of three, the first of
which was won by the yallejoites on
Thanksgiving day in Oakland. Accord
ing to the agreement between the two
teams. if the Oaklanders should return
victors, which would make the series
tie, third game will be played at a
place yet to be decided upon.
The team from Oakland will present
q much stronger lineup than that of
Thanksgiving day, as both the line and
back field have been considerably
strengthened. Robert Hunter, last year
Century captain, will play his old posi-
tion of fullback with Gene Burns, while
Kiser, the Alameda high school half
back, who was unable to play in the
last game on account of having to play
for his school the same day, will be
the right half, and George Incell, the
crackerjack Berkeley high school
player, will play left half.
Incell is the best high school player
that has been turned out for many
years. Next semester Incell goes to
Dartmouth.
a Dave McAndrews has been coaching
the Century team for the last two
weeks and fully expects his reputa-
ton of turning out winning teams will
remain with him.
The Century club has chartered a
special boat to make the trip and will
go to Vallejo with large crowd of
enthusiastic supporters.
