CASES CAPTAIN
old u. OF M. MAN
DEATH OF HIS FATHER CAUSED
FORMER WOLVERINE STAR
TO ENTER CASE ScIENTl-
FIG SCHOOL.

Ann Arbor, Mich, oct. 11.-One fea-
ture OF the football game played sat
urday between the University of Mich
igan team and the eleven representing
the Case Scientific school, which re-
suited in a tie score. to is the fact
that the Case captain, is a former
Michigan man.
Probably not half a dozen out of the
thousands of spectators who occu-
pied the bleachers recognized him.
and but a few more knew that he was
once a student in the University of
Michigan. But he was Capt. Twitch-
ell, captain and right half back of the
Case eleven, entered the university in
the fall of 1905. and for a time he gave
promise of developing into a classy
quarter miller. Then the death of his
father cause him 10 withdraw from
college and he never returned.
Two years after he left Michigan he
bobbed up unexpectedly as halfback
on the eleven that Case brought 10
Ann Arbor for the annual opening,
but even Coach Yost didn't know that
II was the same Twitchell who had
been working under Keene Fitzpat-
rick TO become a quarter miller. Twit-
chell was a student i'm the engineering
department when at Michigan. and his
| courses were arranged that he had
no time for football. Even IL he had
been able To go out for the team, il is
unlikely that he would have made
good, for at that time he was only
a fractional part as large as he now
! is.
I Last year Twitchell and Roby were
stars on the Case eleven. and Twitch

season his teammates showed then

puN,s REVIEW

NEW YORK, Jan. 24-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Notwithstanding the seasonable lull in busi-
ness, general conditions are normal and the
volume Of trade measured by bank eX-
changes and railroad earnings is heavy. There
is a wide diversity Of reports from the diff
ferent trades and trade centers, but even the
least satisfactory indicates no fundamental
weakness, while a majority of the reports,
especially those from the cities farthest re-
moved from the influence of the unsettled
conditions in the financial markets, show
healthy condition Of affairs.
An increased demand for pig iron is indi-
in some districts. Inquiry is broadening quite
generally, with sales of from 10000 to 10000
tons of various grades noted in the west,
while business in some parts of the east shows
an appreeiabfe expansion, mostly in malleable
iron.
Trade in cotton goods was restricted to some
extent by unsettled conditions in the raw ma
terial market, although in the face of
sharp decline in the staple there were large
sales of print cloths at the advanced price of
4A cents for delivery during the first six
months of the year. There also short
ening OF discounts on printed goods Of sta
pie character, foreshadowing, to some buy
ers, an advance from the base price of 5l5
cents Much more activity is noted in hides,
some large tanners entering the market
Prices were lower than have previously ruled !,
but the declines were not great, considering
that most spectators who sold were enabled
to clean out their stocks of branded varieties
up to the first Of the year.

LIQUIDATION IN

HEAVY UNLOADING CAUSES A
SURPRISE
EASE IN MONEY MARKET SUP
PLIES NO RELIEF
Declines of to Points In Values
Become General-Washington
Prospects Said to Be Prn-
cipal Motive for Unload
Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-The resump-
tion of liquidation in the stock market
today set conjecture to work for some
deeper cause to explain it than the
more superficial influences which have
been given responsibility and which
are passing away without relieving the
market from depression.
The money market passed from g
condition of relative to positive ease,
but this proved powerless to check the
unloading Of stocks or to stimulate any
new demand. The unloading of stocks
continued to put back funds in the
money market which is in the course
of replenishment as well as from
various other sources.
This persistent liquidation is deemed
important and as coming from infiu-
ential sources having in view a pro-
longed outlook as well as retrospect.
Continuous and persistent accumula-
tion of stocks went on for many months
during the rising prices of last year
and there is reason to believe the TAX
ing of profits on much of this specu-
lation was planned for the opening
weeks of the new year when easing
money markets and reinvestment of
yearly profits were looked to for the
inspiration of a general demand for
Stocks. 1t was foreseen that legisla-
tive and judicial action having i'm
portant bearing on financial affairs
would develop soon.
Apparently the desirability to check
the foundations before further hap
penings in tnis field is appearing with
greater force to holders of stocks.
Liquidation Is Pushed
Liquidation was pushed with grow
ing precipitation today and declines
of to 3 points had become general
by the middle of the afternoon. IN
the Hartman Pacifics, st. Paul and
a few others, it was even greater. The
breaking through of prices to lower
levels then had been touched on pre-
vious reactions was the signal for the
uncovering Of fresh stop loss orders
and for bringing new burdens on the
market.
Washington prospects were said to be
a principal motive for the throwing
over of stocks. The widespread ac-
tivities of the government in the field
of corporation regulation and the pros
pect of early decisions by the supreme
court which 1t was feared might pre-
sent even graver conditions were made
the staple of argument by the sellers
of stocks. The stock market showed
no rallying power, lowest prices of the
day being reached in the last hour with
an even greater outpouring of stocks.

S. Steel, Great Northern and Pacific

Influences The trade thinks it sees loosep-
ing up of country offerings, or at least a work
ing out of the worst of their troubles by the
railroads. This is expected to count materially
against values in view of the present cash
grain weakness. The early show of strength
was because of the unfavorabe quality of Ar
gentine WHEAT arriving at ports. Theories on
wheat are numerous, but the facts are the
things that counting against the price, and
the facts a large increasing primary
movement lately and to come, and very poor
cash demand with millers and flour dealers all
stocked up. Cash sales here were limited to
5000 bushels, although the market had very
stiff decline toward the close and finished
much lower.
There was a big trade in corn, but the mar
ket was sharply lower and much Of the gimp
