FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL,
A sTAeNANT MARKET.
Heavy Tone in Morning with Some
Hardening Later in Day.

New York, Feb. threading was
the only one OF the stock market lead
ers to move today more than a frac-
ton from last weeks close. That
stock was under pressure during the
morning and lost point, but made it
up in the afternoon. The market
moved with Reading. The tone was
heavy in the early part of the day,
and prices were cut fractionally. In
the latter part Of the session the list
hardened. There was no sign of an
awakening from the comatose condi-
ton into which the market fell last
week. Its utter stagnation is indi-
Gated by the fact that during one hour
of todays trading less than $4,000
shares OF stock changed hands, the
lowest figures for an hours business
in months. Quotations at the close
were barely changed on the day.
The pressure against Reading, ap-
parently, was due to bear selling on
the idea that the supreme court might
render its decision in the anthracite
case. With several other important
cases pending in the supreme court,
there was a disposition among the
trading element to await word from
Washington whether decisions were
TO be made in any of the cases in
which most interest is felt in Wall
street.
The copper stocks showed continued
Armness. The recent advance in these
stocks has failed to attract to them
large speculative following, owing
TO the belief that the rise, while to
some extent a reflection of better con-
ditions in the metal trade, was largely
maEipulative. The report of the
Hardwick committee on the American
Sugar Refining company was not re-
Elected in the stock market, American
Sugar selling unchanged. A few in
active stocks moved more widely than
the leaders. American Snuff dropped
five points and Bethlehem Steel 3-S.
st. Louis Southwestern, Central E1ec-
trio preferred, Westinghouse, Mackay
companies and General Electric were
the strongest, rising a point or more.
Improvement in freight movements
on Western roads during the last week
was reported. Gross earnings for the
first half Of February in many cases
show considerable gains, chiefly on
account Of unusually large receipts of
farm products.
Germany again borrowed money in
this market. New York bankers re-
ceived bids of 4 IL per cent for one
month loans, Offers so much above
the current quotations here as to at
tract some large investments Bank
ers ascribed the demand for money in
Berlin to commercial activity and the
requirements of the approaching set
Element.
Engagements Of gold for shipment
to South America continue; $3.50 ,00C
was Withdrawn today for Argentina
This demand for gold showed that
foreign markets were once more shift
ing upon New York the burden OF
financing the payments Of Argentina
which must be made at this time OF
the year.
The bond market was dull and
steady. Total sales, par value, ST.,
$4,000.
United States bonds were unchanged

Jack Dempsey had no business in the
ring with Fltzsimmons or any other
154-pouHi man. The gallant Nonpar-
ell, as we all loved to call him, was
never in the middleweight division; in
fact, he was hardly q welterweight
For most Of his fights he could do 1873
CT 40 pounds and be right, but he
was certainly a most ambitious fellow
Why, he even wanted to jump into the
heavyweight division and fight Jake
Kilrain when John L. Sullivan was
sick and helpless in Boston in 1888.
If Dempsey had fought in the welter
weight class, as he should, he would
probably never have been defeated and
would be alive and well today. He
was certainly the peer Of any man
in his weight in the world when he
was good and right
The Noupareil was not a big glove
fighter, and seldom knocked his OPP
ponent out, as he did not have the
power or kick in his blows. His great
skill was in bare knuckIe or skin glove
battling. The ol1 expression of box
er going around an opponent like d
cooper around barrel describes his
style pretty well. He fought many
men over his weight, and far more

fully and scientifically and bled them
at every vital part above the belt
into weakness. He was, indeed, . skill
full surgeon in the ring. Skin glove
lighting was the seVerest form of mill
ing. Dempsey could chop and cut his
man to pieces with skin tight gloves.
No man ever led to him without d
return. He was an ideal defensive box
er. He had great straight left hand
that he worked like piston rod.
Dempsey never fought in clinches like
some of the modern pugilists, mauling
and hauling with useless kidney cracks.
Neither did he fight one round after
| another alike. He always kept his
opponents guessing by changing his
tactics in almost every round. He had
q quick brain that caused MIN to move
with great speed when the occasion
required rapidity.

TWENTY YEARS ON THE ClNDER PATH
By JOHN D. NOLAN
NUMBER Is.

In the Hands Of a Crook-Winninq the
Naugatuck Road Race---My Share of
Winnings $5-Getting Back at Ma
haney of Waterbury.
The 20 round battle between Melon
aid and the Unknown was fought in
barn about five miles from Waterbury
and resulted in draw after good
contest l drove to the place with Dan
Manaheny, a wealthy contractor and
hotel keeper OF Waterbury, who on the
way suggested many schemes whereby
we could make a dollar and promised
to furnish all the money necessary. s
But If my life in Waterbury seemed
like a pleasant dream. 1t was destined
to end as abruptly, for one night as
We were chatting in the barroom Billy
Perkins dropped from his chair, dying
suddenly, and the saloon was at once
closed, and sold shortly afterward.
A few days after his death l was
matched by Burns and Cal O'Brien of
NaUgatuck to run mile for 500 a
side with Miles Daley, an iron moulder
of Union City. The race was to be
run from Union City to Naugatuck, on
the road, and aroused great interest
as Daley had many friends. / was to
receive so per cent. of the winnings
But q few days previous to the date
of the race sporting friend came to
me and said: Jack, you're foolish to
trust Mahaney. He'll beat you, as he
has everyone else. Don't you know he
brought Ed Skinner, the great sprinter,
here, and when he couldn't match him,
kept his trunk for his board?"
He also warned me to be careful
during the race. as he had heard Daley
was to win without doubt and the
mOulders were to back him heavily. We
dressed for the race in the rear room
of a saloon at Union City, and while
thus engaged I recognized the voice Of
Manaheny's bartender offering to back
me in the barroom. I looked through
an opening in the partition and saw
him bet $40, after which he left the
saloon in search Of more bets. [ sus-
pected the game he was playing, but
said nothing. We toed the mark and
went away at 4 o'clock p. m. with
Daley leading. He kept the lead for
about quarter of mile, when l pass
ed him and made the pace q hot one
for the next half mile, with the in
tention of taking all the speed out of
him before entering the last quarter
In this I was successful, Daley's breath
at this point coming in quick, hard
gasps.

COLLEGE ATHLETICS NEED
BETTER MORAL STANDARDS.
Fair Play Spirit Lost Sight of in Ef-
fort to Win.


Moral standards in college athletics
are either indefinite or poorly observ-
ed, according to DR.. J. II. McCurday,
director of the Springfield Y. M c. A.
Training school, who addressed the
annual convention of the New England
Recreation Institute in Brool1line. DR..
McCurdy condemned the practice of
PROSECUTING, which he declared is
widely resorted to for securing track
preparatory school athletes for certain
colleges. Citing instances to indicate
n lack of fair play, he said:
"One person told me the coach or
dered him to twist the lame knee Of
the best football player. He refused,
other players backed him up, and the
practice was stopped. The referee in
a prominent set OF track games was
obliged to exclude from the field of
play both coaches, because they wero
encouraging the boys to violate the
rules of the sport. A player was sent
in last fall to a football game with in
structions to stop the runs of a GER
tain player, even though It meant a
good penalty"

Lincoln Was a Christian.

At the Scotland road service Sunday
afternoon Rev. Charles Smith of Bal
tic in discussing the question as to
whether Lincoln was a Christian, said
that it was doubted by many. AS
proof Of the fact he said that when
Lincoln left Springfield, H., for Wash
ington he asked prayers that he might
follow in the footsteps Of General
Washington. the Christian president.
Then, too, when Lincoln lost his son,
he thought himself nearly Christian,
but felt sure when he saw the mounds
at Gettysburg where those We're lying
who had given their lives for their
country.

JACK DEMPSEY GREATEST
REPRESENTATIVE FIGHTER
The Nonpareil the Finest Type OF Ring
General.

IF you ask me whom I consider
the greatest representative fighter of
the modern prize ring, l would pick
my cid pal, Jack Dempsey said Jack
Skelly, recently.
Dempsey was. to my mind, the
finest type of the. artistic ring general
that 1 ever saw in action. He was
wonderfully scientiC. as game as &
pebble and always honorable in and
out of the ring. There was never the
slightest suggestion of a fake or a
stall In any Of his fights. He always
fought 10 win and never mixed up in
any questionable deals.
In mis- early career he was light
hearted, playful companion, always
ready for lark and a joke and never
aggressive or mussy. After his unfor-
tunate defeat by Bob Fitzsimmons he
changed greatly. He grew sad and
melancholy and was never the same
cheerful fellow. That defeat broke
poor Dempsey's heart and sent him
in sorrow TO an early grave.
Let me tell you right here that
