LOCAL FIGHTERS SHOW CLASS

Four clever boxing bouts. in three of which Bridgeport boys figured, took place last evening in South Norwalk. The star mix-up of the evening was between Jack Klisphey of New York and Matty 'Kid" Hassett of this city. The mill went six rounds, with the To- cal pug having the advantage. The semi-fnal between Phil Brady of this city and Jack Crawford of South Nor walk, was stopped in the third round to save the South Norwalk lad from a knockout. This was Brady's second victory within the month, Sport Me- Guiness of Stamford getting the down fall last week. The third bout was between Young Terry of Stratford and Tony Farino of South Norwalk, going six rounds to a draw. The opener of the evening, between "Kid" Kelly of this city and Bobby Fant of South Norwalk, went four rounds when the cops stepped over the ropes saving Fant from a fall down,

NEW PITCHER AND NEW OUTFIELDER
 FOR LOCAL TEAM
OF ROCHESTER AND CINCHES ELEY OF JERSEY CITY.

Manager McCann's sojourn in New York during the session of the Ma tional League magnates has not been for naught. Yesterday he purchased from Manager Ganzel of the champion Rochester club of the Eastern League the release of Pitcher Snyder, and completed the purchase of Outfielder Eley of the Jersey City club.
 Snyder has been with the BronchOs for the past two seasons. In 1908 when Rochester finished last he won one out of seven games, but last sea- son came back much stronger. He was laid up with sickness for some time. He won six out of ten games pitched, an average of 500. With a record of that nature in the Eastern League it warrants .750 in the Connec- ticut.
 There was slight hitch in the pur- chase of Eley, which was not com pleted till yesterday. Manager Tran of the Skeeters previously turned him over to Utica of the New York State League but the Utica management turned him back as his salary was too high for that league. There was some necessary changing and signing of pa pers, which were completed yester. day.

CHANCE FOR GOTCH
Especial from United Press )

Chicago, Feb. 16.-Mahmout Zybsco and Champion Frank Gotch are think ing seriously today about a challenge issued to them by Jimmy Esson, the Scotch wrestler who has been defeat ing all corners in local rings.
 "I am tired of wrestling for small purses said the Scot. 'T got $500 for wrestling De Rouen and that is all the money I have made since I came over. If I can't get a chance at one of the three men I have named, I'll go back to London
 s'I think I have shown that am entitled to a chance at Gotch. the Pole or the Turk. I won't say that I can beat Gotch. I'll guarantee. however, that I'll give him all the wrestling he wants"

HAYES BROTHERS WIN FIVE MILE EVENT
(By Dick Barrett.)

Things were very fast last evening at the Park City rink, with the Hayes brothers. who beat the fast Brooklyn skaters by little over half lap. in the fast time of 15 minutes and 31 sec onds. This is the fastest time for a five mile race in this rink. The Hayes boys made the first mile in 2 minutes and 52 seconds, the record for this rink. Walter Hayes started the race with Burton, with a sprint of almost a lap gaining quarter of a lap but lost it in a short time. The Brook lyn boys were not quick enough.
 The Hayes brothers are now out for

New York, Nov. 14-what seemed
TO be going on in the security market
to-day was retreat TO greater or less
extent OF the short interest In stocks

There were indications on Saturday that
liquidation has temporarily run its course
through the three preceding business
days and to-doy. therefore. the natural
Inclination OF professional operators was
20 secure profits, II any that had accum-
mated on the fall. The rising tendency
caused BY this was assisted by renewed

therefore, brought about. The rise con-

"LfstinGs" in Europe Next.
For the moment Wall street is occupy-
ing Itself with rumors of 'listings" of
stocks OF different railway and Indus
trial companies In Paris. Berlin, and else
where, and is apparently under the smell
or conviction that action Of this sort Is
more powerful bull factor than con-
traction of railway earnings is a bear
one and speculations based on this idea
are admittedly encouraged at the moment
by the current cheapness OF money.
Feop4e who take a longer view of the
stock market are. on the other hand
asking pointedly whether this current
cheapness Of money is due In the first
pace 10 declining business over the coun-
ny; and secondly, to heavy borrowers in
foreign capitals with which to finance
the movement FOR the rise There is little
doubt that American finance bills repre-
sentlng a large sum OF money have lately
been sold TO French banking houses.
1t IS in explanation of this transaction
that this borrowing is not Ia furtherance
OF any effort 10 get up a speculative
movement in prices here. but had really
originated In arrangements making for
the repayment or other maturing loans
or Ike character. Whether this leaves
the problem OF American finance bills
proper in any better shape may be left
TO the future TO decide.
Money Rates Are Easier.
CaH ana time money rates were easier
ana sterling exchange rose somewhat less
than quarter of a point, the last-named
movement being directly caused by the
rise IN sterling in Paris in connection
with our own borrowings. The comp
troller Of the currency and the bank de-
partmentS of our own and various other
States made a call to-day upon the hanks
under their respective control for re-
port Of condition as OF November 10 last.
AS throwing light upon the highly i'm
portant question Of the excess OF loans
over deposits in national banking insti-
tutions just now these reports, when they
are made public, WIFI be highly illumina-
tive.
