Features Of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, July 2s-Incidents consider

the contention for the restoration of the

Professional operators have felt that
the price of United States Steel was like

earnings for the quarter. while rising
handsomely over those for the preceding
quarter, and still more markedly over the
corresponding quarter of last year, are
seen to be, with exceptions of last year,
the year of depression in 1904 and the
year 1901, when the corporation was form
ed, the smallest earnings reported for the
corresponding quarter in any year. In
the matter of the 4.O57,93s tons of untitled
orders on hand also, it is seen that while
tervening quarter since that ending Dec.
81, 1907, yet there is found an unbroken
series of excuses over this figure for
every quarter before that since the one
ending Sept. 80, 1904.
That date carries the comparison back
to the period of depression from which
the industry had not yet emerged after
the reaction of 1903. This more detailed

were taken today when Jeffries, on his
arrival from the West posted $4,000 as
a forfeit to bind a match with the
Negro pugilist for fight of anywhere
from 20 to a hundred rounds. The one
time boiler maker insists that the fight
shall be held before the club offering
the largest purse and that when arti-
cles are signed an additional forfeit of
$4,000 shall be posted. The whole sum
of $780, 900 is to go to the winner of the

Jeffries will leave for a short Euro
pean trip in a few days. He will visit
the springs at Carlsbad in Bohemia
and will do a little preliminary train
ing there. He plans to be ready to
fight within five months.
There is absolutely nothing the mat
ter with me anyway" he said after
posting the forfeit and to prove his
assertion he gave his chest mighty
thump that could easily have bowled
over the ring of inquiring newspaper
men. Jeffries said that he hoped the
fight would be held in this country.
He thought that few days at Carls-
bad and a little trip on the continent
would he beneficial.
On posting his forfeit, Jeffries issued
the following statement:
after decisively convincing myself
it is easily possible for me to defend
my title as champion of the world, in
as good a condition as ever before in
my life, l am today posting my for

first called from retirement l said that
l would never agree to oppose any

physical condition. After being abso-

that 1 would post my forfeit at the ex-

MARGIN WINS MERCHANTS
AND MINERS HANDICAP.

Detroit, July 28.-AlonZo MacDon-
aid, the Boston reinsman, who captur-
ed the Readville handicap last August,
this afternoon won the Goth renewal
of the $4,000 Merchants and Manufac-
turers stake for 2.24 class trotters with
his roam mare Margin. The victory
was easy enough and the first heat in
2.O6h came within a quarter of sec
ond of the stake record by Sonoma
Girl.
Seven responded to the call for the
first heat and the conditions were ideal,
a hot and humid day, just right for
speed, but distressing to the 10000
spectators. Henry Setser took the lead
and was closely attended by Marie N,
and Margin. Marie N. went to the
front and at the three quarters but in
the stretch Margin beat her handily,
then eased at the end Margin led
all the way in the second heat, and
when challenged by Marie N, in the
stretch she drew away again without
trouble. The third heat was won with
out trouble and the average time OF
the three is very fast for the event
Margin was bought by Mcdonald
for $1050 at a Kentucky sale in the
fall of 1907. The man for whom he
secured her refused to accept the mare
and Mcdonald kept her, recently sell :
ing half interest to Stoten Fletcher
Jr. of Indianapolis. After the race
Mcdonald was presented with a floral
sulky.
The betting on the event was lively
and Marie NJ, was favorite at $500
with Margin 1925 in a pool of $1O45.
Hal Raven, the blind PAGER, lowered
her record when she won the second
heat in the 2.O7 pace in a hard drive
in 2.03A.
The three-year- old trot saw Nancy
McKerron, a daughter of the one-time
champion Nancy Hanks and owned by
the young sons of John E. Madden
won the two fine drives. Her second
neat, in 2.1O12, is wonderful for the
season of the year and establishes her
as a formidable futurity entry. Sum

posted a forfeit of $4,000 with Robert
Edgren, a sporting writer, this after
noon, as evidence of good faith that he
is willing to meet Jack Johnson, in de-
fence of his title Johnson claims the
title by virtue of victory over Tom
my Burns in Australia last winter.
Jeffries had planned to post the for
felt a few days prior to his departure
for Europe, but decided quickly after
reaching here that the sooner the I'M
certainty regarding the matter was
settled, the better it would be.
Il have posted this sum-" said JEFF
ries, "to show my friends that l am in
earnest in my declaration that I am
willing to defend the title of heavy
weight champion in a fight with Jack
Johnson.
Il only stipulate that the fight must
be anywhere from 20 to 100 rounds in
length and that it be fought before the
club offering the largest purse. Also
when the articles are signed it shall
be agreed that an additional forfeit Of
$4,000 be put up with the stakeholder
as a side bet.
Nov, if Jack johnson wants to
make good and have an interesting
session which he has been talking
about, let him put up his money. Pend
ing the selection of final stakeholder,
who must be a reputable sporting man,
l have placed the forfeit of $4,000 with
Bob Edgren I should prefer John b.
Clark of San Francisco as stakeholder. !"

fight within five months and that he
now weighed 235 pounds stripped. He
will leave here on Aug. for Carlsbad.
