WEST FOR san FRANCISCO
Think That City is the Best Site for
Panama Exposition.

Some indication of the favor with
which San Francisco. is regarded in
the middle west as the site for the
Panama exposition is shown by the
enthusiastic endorsement Of the Cal

carnations of business men in Chi
cago and Omaha.

new Orleans publicity bureau at O'a-
aha sent out a report that the Cre-

mercial organization of that city
Immediately a meeting of the CLUB
was called, the alleged endorsement
denied and a resolution endorsing
San Francisco adopted by an over
whelming majority.
The city council Of Omaha, i'm the
meantime had adopted by imam

San Francisco as the site for the

AMERICAN RHODES SCHOLARS
 ARE POINT WINNERS
Mcdonald and Putnam in Oxford .
 Cambridge Meet-Cambridge Wins.

Cambridge won in the annual inter varsity sports with Oxford, points to 8 at London, Eng, on Saturday. Ox- ford was victorious year ago, but her defeat Saturday was no suprise, as l.. c. Hull, the American Rhodes schol- ar from Michigan, and who had been relied upon to win the 100 yards dash and the quarter mile run, as he did last year, was unable to compete owing to sprained tendon in the heel. Both events went to the light blues. The captain of the Oxford Athletic club ap- peared from the start to have scarcely a. chance of winning Saturday. The Americans, Macdonald and Putnam, won the 120 yards hurdles and the hammer throw, respectively, but Put nam was considerably below his usual form both in the hadmmer throw and putting thes hot. In the latter event he was able to do but 36 feet inches against the Cambridge winners low put of 37 feet. The performances as a whole were much below par and none of the records were even approached.
 M. T. Macdonald, an American Rhodes scholar at Lincoln college, OK ford university, won the 120 yards hurdles. His time was 16 seconds
 George E. Putnam of Ottawa, Kan sas. another Rhodes scholar, won the hammer throwing event for Oxford with 14S feet inches.

SATURDAY MARKETS.
Not Enough Demand to Sustain Prioes-Many Substantial Declines.

New York, March 19-10.1O a. m.- Only trivial prfce-changes resulted from the dull opening dealings in stocks. The movement was irregular showing both gains and losses. Ches- apeake & Ohio and Hooking Valley certificates advanced 1 and American Telephone 5S.
 Il a. m.-There was not enough de- mand to sustain prices.J and the list fell on increasingly large offerings, un- til there were many substantial de- cEnes. The western railroad stocks and United States Steel were the weakest features. Union Pacific sag ged l 5-S, Southern Pacific 1 3-S. and Amalgamated Copper 1 IA. Hooking Valley certificates got up points.
 Cfosing+The market closed heavy and dull. The anxiety which showed itself in the decline in prices was due to fears that the western railroad f1re- men would strike. to uneasiness over the outcome of the New York city bond sale on Monday, and to the political upheaval at Washington. Rumors were current that the American Tobacco decision would be handed down on Monday. A fresh rise in London dis counts renewed discussion of gold ex- ports. There was a dull hardening movement when the shorts covered but the recovery was lost again.

BETTING FAvoRs OXFORD.
But Cambridge Has Many Supporter
 for Crew Event on Wednesday,.

London, March 2o.-The annual boat race next Wednesday between Oxford and Cambridge promises to be one of the most exciting contests of recent years, fully maintaining the traditional popularity of the struggle between the universities.
 Training has virtually been complet- ed and the best judges are reluctant to indulge in predictions as to the result. The betting has been in favor of OK ford, but the Canta'bs have improved so much of late that the betting is now about even.
 Oxford won last year in a. nerve racking struggle by three and one-half lengths, but only seven of the men who took part in the event on that occasion are engaged this year. Oxford has the heaviest crew on record the average weight of the men, exclusive of the coxswain, being TIT pounds, against the Cantabs' average of I'll 3-4. Be- sides the advantage in weight, the Ox- onianS appear to work better together but Cambridge is a fine smart crew with lively action and is certain to give the opposing crew a great race.
 In the trials Oxford has achieved the seconds, and the race Wednesday, is generally expected to be a repetition of last years, when the result was a close contest for half the distance. Then the dark blues weight and strength began to tell and they drew away at the end.

Labor Commissioner ScoviIIe Touches on Many interesting Subjects in Bulletin No B.

Labor Bulletin No. 8 issued by Com missioner Scoville of the Connecticut bureau of labor statistics has been made public. The opening pages of the bulletin are devoted to brief re- view of the various subjects treated upon.
 In his reference to New Factory or Mill Construction Commissioner Sco- ville says: Tt will be interesting to note that the expenditures for the pur- pose indicated during the year 1908 amounted to $1,7s1.167, while during the corresponding period of 1909 the crease of S272,973 or 15.2 per cent.' Space in the bulletin is given to a brief description of the operation of the tenement house act' in the six work accomplished by the five free public employment bureaus is treated upon and a statement in detail of sit nations secured for the unemployed is of the system adopted and in use by the superintendents of the offices, which, the commissioner says, has proved a great improvement in materi- al results attained"
 Regarding labor disturbances such as are characterized as strikes and lockouts" in the bulletin, Commission CT Scoville reports as being few in number during the year and are dis tinguished for the absence of any semblance of lawlessness. the most inn portant of these difficulties being that having reference to use of the union label in the hating industry with it's resultant serious loss in time and in wages"
 A complete directory of the labor or ganizations in the state appears in the bulletin. as does a revision of Connec- ticut labor laws and a resume of legis- lation relating to the interest of labor Introduced into and rejected by the general assembly of 1909.
 In referring to the recent verdict in the matters caSe,'' the bulletin says:
 The important principle was decided that Ia Dor organizations have no spe- cial rights under the antitrust law and must suffer legal penalties for practising intimidation and similar re- straints on trade and commerce. Just as any other corporation or Organiza- ton much which undertakes to use an illegal weapon like the blacklist or the secondary boycott. Analysing the de- cision, it is plain that under it an em- ploying firm or corporation is entitled to discharge its employees if contracts do not prevent, and the employees have a right to agree not to use the articles manufactured by the employer. The boycotted concern is not entitled to conspire with other concerns to deprive the boycotters of employment, or to threaten or annoy other concerns which do employ them. Similarly the boycotters must not use intimidation to discourage outsiders from handling ucts. Briefly stated. the parties to the quarrel must deal each with the other and refrain from drawing innocent third parties into the controversy"
 The bulletin also contains brief ex- cerpts from a thesis by Lindley D. ability of employers for injuries to their employees.
