REARIsH SENTIMENT.
Speculative Stocks Fall Under Sc
we're Pressure.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE leading
speculative stocks were under severe
pressure today, and prices fell Sen
timent was more bearish and traders
on the long side Of the market were
unable to follow up the advantage
which they gained yesterday After
show of strength in the early trad
ing, the market responded to the eff
fects of aggressive bear selling and
was heavy during the remainder of
| the day with periods Of pronounced
weakness.
Union Pacific was once more the
center of the bear attack and its re-
covery of yesterday was cancelled by
two-point decline. The movement
! in this stock was of the battling ma
/ ture which has attracted SO much at
| ton during the lagt few weeks. As
the price gave way the supply seemed
to increase, and the manipulation Of
| the stock was conducted in such a
way that traders were unable to dis
cover the source of the selling. Var1-
Gus reports concerning the dividend
policy Of the company were heard, but
they lacked authenticity and attract
ed no serious attention. Owing to the
steady pressure against the stock the
December report Of earnings is await
ed with unusual interest.
Reading also showed pronounced
weakness at times and fell back two
points. Southern Pacific, st. Paul,
Canadian Pacific and the copper and
steel shares also were under pressure.
Their weakness exercised a depressing
effect upon the whole list.
The news from Washington in re-
gard to the progress Of the Stanley in
Yestigation was accounted a factor in
unsettling the market. When the gov
ernment's suit for dissolution Of the
United States Steel corporation is filed
! It was assumed in the street that the
Stanley inquiry thereafter would pos
sess little significance, if it were not
discontinued. The vigor with which
the inquiry is being pursued was dis
concerning to the traders who hoped
that the Unexpectedly good statement
Of the steel corporations business In
December might be used as a basis for
further advance in the stock.
Foreign bidding for money cOntin-
ued; offers for London for funds over
the end Of the month We're somewhat
higher than yesterday, some bids Of
4 IL per cent having been made.
| With the local rate for similar loans
under three per cent. a number Of
banks placed funds abroad. Money in
this market was abundant, Receipts
from the interior are large enough to
! indicate another cash gain for the
week.
London was again bearish on Amer
lean stocks, Prices declined there be-
I fore the opening in this market and
during the day about 1900 shares
were sold for London account, princi-
pally United States Steel and Union
Pacific.
The bond market continued active.
| Quotations fluctuated irregularly. To-
tai sales, par value. $4,411, 00e. Panama
| threes declined 1-8 on call.

who came to this country and fought
a number of men in the past two
years, finally used his efforts to get
Critic released, agreeing to pay his
way back to Australia. Critic went
to New York a few months ago, and
at one of the local clubs he was given
chance to display his skill. He was
put against Mike Leonard, a former
crack lightweight, and Critic showed
that he still possessed his marvellous
skill, but had not the stamina to hold
his own against the rugged boxers of
today, although he bested Leonard
without having to exert himself.
CRITICS manager made fortune
from him. L have seen Critic after a
contest come to q club office and with
his hat in his hand ask Behan to fill
1t. A bundle Of one dollar bills piled
loosely into the hat, would be given
him. With crowd of kindred spirits
he would rush to the nearest saloon,
pour the contents of the battered
derby on the country, and in a few
minutes Critic would be looking for
more money from his manager.
How different are the present day

bank accounts, many of them having
large realty holdings. Even the Sec
ond raters are rated as wealthy and all
seem to be imbued with the thrift hab-
it to the point where many ar e actually
considered penurious. Still, some of
these prefer to look ahead and to put
I their coin away, rather than to let it
filter through their hands f)r the mere
sake of being a good fellow

Back 70 III. Rush

Steve Evans, the st. Louis Cardinal
outtielder, tells funny story about
himself when he was with the New
York Giants. One day / was sitting
on the bench and wondering If / ever
was going to get a chance to figure
in game for the Giants. Finally the
chance came and Manager McGraw
called, Steve, so to the bat and l.,
swinging the club as if I would knock
the ball out of the lot, strobe up to
the plate. 1t was my opportunity to
show McGraw that was there as
a ball player. l let few balls so by.
Muggsy was watching me from the
first base coaching box. Finally ball
came over the plate I thought was
to my liking. took q healthy swing
and met the ball on the nose. /
thought it went sailing out of the lot,
but instead it went rolling down to
the pitcher, who easily. threw me out.

The question bothering prominent
followers of fistic activities is: Can
Ad Wolgast, after his illness, come

dicitis, and when they have been de-
clared sound were able toy do them
selves credit in the ring. Wolgasts'
strong constitution might have brought
him through the operation all right

back in the form of serious cold, his
weakened condition may tell on him in
days to come. Ted Murphy, former
manager Of Bat Nelson. says: "Wol-

never given true credit for his boxing
ability, and he is so far ahead of any
one in his class that he can go or
