WALL STREET

To-dey's early stock market appeared
to be under the influence of last weeks
liquidation. when, after substantial Inn
provement at the opening. a quick SELL
ing movement developed that wiped out
early gains. A buying demand OF large
proportions sent prices up about one
point at the start. Union Pacific, Atchi-
son and steel set the pace at the be-
ginning. Realizing on the bulge. how
ever. reduced the list to last weeks clos
ing.
Toward the end OF the first hou the
list became exceedingly strong on a re-
sumption OF the early buying. Atchi-
son. Union Pacific. Reading, st. Pau and
steel were perslstently advanced 10
higher levels.
Crop news was generally favorable.
After a period OF dizziness trading
qulckered at the close, when material
gains were established In Union and
Northern Pacific. IT. Paul. Steel and
the Upper shares. Cogpers were bid
up steadily on prospects Of a favorable
report to-morroN. Closing sales were
the highest Of the day.

a private fight over In Hoboken. Small
gloves were used. Weir finished the
smoke in the fourth round.
From this time on Weir's layoffs be-
gan to be more frequent and his nghts
more rare. He was on the down grade
as a fighter. not so much so, however,
that he was unable to beat his old
enemy, Australian Billy Murphy, whom
he met In Boston. The fight was held
on Nov. .. 1898, before the Crib Club.
1t was to he twenty rounds and the
purse vas $3.50 to the winner and 800
to the loser. The spider" more than
evened up old scores. From the first
tap of the gong he piled into Murphy,
hitting him so fast that the Australian
was bewtldered.
In the fourth rc",nd Murphy came
back strong and landed some hard body
blows that made Ike vince. But Billy
never got an opportunity to get his old
reliable right hand. his Mary Ann"
as he called IL. into action. In the hfth
Weir kept Murphy busy ducking and
lodging. and finally caught him on the
point of the Jaw with a right-hand up
percut. Murphy was sent through the
ropes out into the crowd and clear into
the innermost recesses OF dreamland.
on Dec. 81 Ike fought with Eddie
lsoeher, the amateur featherweight
champion of BROOKLYN. before n Boston

Nike Sears Put Hin, Out

Weir then returned to Boston and pub
licly announced his retirement from the
prize rin-. only once after did he enter
IL for other thar exhibition bouts. That
was on March Il. 1898, when he fought;
at Lynn, Mass. with Nike Sears Of
Lewiston, Me. Sears knocked the
spider" out in the tenth round.
with that exception the Belfast
Spider" lived peacefully at Charlestcwn,
Mass. until his death n few years ago.
He was very devoted TO his wife. who
is still living. and was always a happy
and loving husband. Weir often used to
say. MY father n - me n love Of
horses and books and a respect for
women, and those are three things that
never hurt a man yet" For many
years Ike was a trainer for one OF the
Vanderbilts and could be seen at the
horse show in Madison Square Garden
each winter carefully watching after mis-
rour-footed charges.
\ gamer little lighter than Weir never
walked into the ring. His weak noint
was his hands. not his heart. Had the
former not come back on him in his
battles, carping critics would never have
had an op%portunity to find fault with
the latter. In ono OF Ikc's battles he
broke both hands early in the hght.
The crowd saw that Ike was not hitting
and Kissed him. The little Irlshman
walked over 10 the ropes ana said TO the
crowd, 81 want to tell You fellows that
