LAMBS LOSE
LARGE sum
Almost a Panic Occurs and
Two Firms Go to the
Wall.
BY United p ess Wire.

New York, Jan. 20.-Two Wall
street firms collapsed yesterday by
trying to carry an industrial stock,
which had been forced up from $22
a share little less than a year ago
to $3.50. The result was almost
panic on the exchange, the selling of
thousands of shares Of Standard
stocks by frightened investors who
believed that another financial panic
was impending and an extremely and
nervous market closing which pro-
tended that the trouble is by no
means over.
The losses to the lambs are en-
ormous and had II not been that
the big interests managed to pro-
tect the standard industrials and
railroad shares from a complete
looting by the bears, it Is declared a
number of other failures might have
resulted
The two firms that went to the
wall were Lathrop, Haskins and Com
pany and J. M. Fiske & Company
Both were completely loaded up
with stock Of the Columbus & Hook
ing Coal and Iron Company
when the bank called their ioanl
on the stock and refused TO make
further advances on IT, It fell over
sixty points and they could not meet
their obligations Neither firm was
able to make any statement of lab
ilities or assets, but they declared
they hoped to pay all in full and
possibly to resume.
More stock was sold today than at
any time since the day following the
death Of E. H. Hartman. United
States Steel crumbled from "a Us
to II SIS; Southern Pacific from
1872 to 12S is; Union Pacific from
1913 lis TO below 1S9; Reading was
off more than three points; New
York Central; Atchison and all of
the other widely dealt in stocks
about the same amount.
Traders have been afraid to sell
Hooking short because they believed
IT might be cornered, although It
was plain that the values attatch-
ed to it were artificial. Then, when
the banks refused to make loans on
the stock and called in those out
standing, the pool which forced the
prices up tried to market IL and
found that there was absolutely. no
market for 1t at any price. The re-
suit was collapse.
There was a total of 1923, ,404
shares of stocks sold on the ex-
change today ~

KAUFMAN IS
NO CHAMPION
Shows Weak Points While
Defeating Jack O'Brien.
BY United Press Wire.

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 20.-That
Al. Kaufman is not destined to be-
come the worlds champion is
vouched for today by every fight fan
who last night saw him defeat
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien In their
six-round fight. Kaufman cannot
hit hard enough; he is not clever
enough; he does not know enough
about the fine points of the game.
Kaufman beat 'Brien-beat him
badly. But he couldn't get enough
steam behind one of his blows to
put out the Philadelphia dancing
master. He tried hard but couldn't
make O'Brien take the count,
1t was a rafting good fight, for
what O'Brien lacked in strength, he
made up in cleverness. His hands
showed the effects OF 500 fights,
His knuckles were swollen so that a
look of pain came over his face
every time he essayed to land a
crushing blow on Kaufman. He hit
the Californian at will, but the blows
only made the Frisco boy smile,
His chin was adamant and he seem
ed to like being hit there. The
men presented strange contrast as
they entered the ring Kaufman,
TALL slender unmarked round
muscled, lowered above the battle
marked O'Brien. The fighting was
almost on even terms In the first
round, which ended.s however, with
Kaufman forcing things. The Cali
fornian rushed with Will. taking
punishment, but giving more. In
the second he went after the Quaker
with vengeance and kept O'Brien
ducking to cover and breaking
ground.
In the third. O'Brien rushed
things, swaylng Kaufmans head
from right to left. In the fourth.
Kaufman sent OBrien to the mat,
but Jack came up like Jack-ln-
the-Box, but couldn't make a blow
stick, while Kaufman bored In with
rights and lefts and kept O'Brien on

Kaufman forced matters. though a
little Wild at times. He tried hard
to put o. 'Brlen out but the force
