down to practice and the "big nine

season may come along about just the
right time.

Harvard is looked upon to repeat and
cop the eastern title. Harvard will
have the far famed Charles Brickley
in the lineup again, which means con-

Brickley shoots drop kicks over the

team to complete the backfield. Two
big freshmen, Brown and Lamberton,
will also probably appear in the varsi-
ty line this year. A. Bluethenthal and
W. G. Andrews, Tiger end and 1912
will have charge of the coaching this
year, and it is to them to build up
practically an entire new team. The
only regular line-man to return this
year was Phillips, left tackle. Five
men who won their letters by substi-
tuting in the Yale or Harvard game
are back, but only three of the real
string men are available. The other
positions must be filled by picking
from the substitutes and the 1916
freshman eleven, Captain Pendleton
is lost to the backfield through gradua-
ton and De Witt through the three

Pennsylvania is another team shak-

men left
Both the army and navy have much
building to do, but as the one big
game with them Is their own little
tussel they expect to be in the best of
shape. The argument as to where this
game would be played has been settled
and the teams will get together at the
Polo grounds.

Plenty Of Good Racing.

Better racing, and more of it. That
is the prediction for next year. With
the trial of things as they used to be in
New York state during the past
months voted a complete success,
plans are under way for racing on a
bigger scale next year. Just as an in
dication that the owners racing on the
New York tracks did not have to go to
the poor house, it may be noted that
Harry Payne Whitney won, 1850
during the ffty-five days racing.
Whitney, it is true, headed the list, but
others did not go begging. Pennant
and Whisk Broom II were Whitney's
best winners. Whisk Broom won the
Metropolitan, the Brooklyn Suburban
handicaps, and in the Suburban hung
up a new mark of two minutes fiat for
the mile and a quarter.
R. T. Wilson finished second to
Whitney in the matter of winnings,
taking down $19,555, R. G.. Carmen won
$1S.380 August Belmont took down
1900 Cock O. the Walk won $6,730
for Frederick Johnson, who totalled
$14,041. Little Johnny McTaggart
flashed out as prabably the best Jockey
in the country during the New York
meetings. McTaggart only few
months ago was stable boy. I!e WAC
given a chance and showed that he
was natural horseman. All of the
big owners are now after McTaggar:
who is under contract to Hugh Penny.

burgh, Pa, announcing that she has
fallen heir to $4,000, left her by her
uncle whom she has not seen since
she was a small child.

but the fact that her uncle has died
and left her fortune, Is contained in
the telegram to Mrs. Evans. She is
arranging to leave Immediately for
Pittsburgh to claim her inheritance.
Her uncle was named John Moore,
was her mothers brother, and as her
mother died while Mrs. Evans was
yet child, she has little recollection
Of him and had not heard from him
In the intervening years Whether he
died interstate or whether Mrs. Evans
was named beneficiary in will he
left she does not know. Moore was
supposed to be immensely rich.
Mrs. Evans lives at the home Of

CITY NEWS.

Almost every week some manu-
facturer comes to Keokuk to inspect
the dam and get information about
power rates. They have heard of the
Keokuk dam and look to this point as
most favorable one to establish
factory. Many Of these investigations
are seriously made and there Is not
the slightest doubt in the minds Of
those familiar with conditions but
that Keokuk will soon begin to locate
factories which will use Mississippi
river power. The Investigations are
mostly made through the lnd'-'r'al
Association but information ,s not
given the public as 1t would do no
good and often times would injure a
prospect.

inp Post 1

ing Past]
NEW YORK, Feb. 2o.--ln the mat
ter of movement Of prices, today's
market was chiefly distinguished by
further and in some cases violent de-
cline in the newer industrial stocks.
Apparently, the particular weakness
In this quarter was due to the fact
that exact intrinsic values are neces-
sarily more or less undetermined with
much less seasoned issues, and that
the market for them is also rendered
vulnerable by the fact that many OF
them have not yet been securely
placed In the investors hands. When
an investment market, taken as
whole, is weak and the general pub
lie not particularly responsive. de-
clines of this character are usually
inevitable. Naturally If the present
mere or less brief career of such
shares on the stock exchange has
lbeen marked by rapid bidding up OF
prices the automatic reaction is apt
to be proportionately severe.

in any other manner by which the
price might be affected. 1t was urged
upon the legislature that the bill be
amended by adding the word know
ingly' 80 that it would read that any
person who wilfully and knowingly
make an agreement in restraint of
trade should be punished. 1t was
perfectly evident that the proposal
was merely plausible scheme devils
ed by those who would escape the just
penalties Of illegal acts.
cit has been said that these laws
will help big business and hurt the
small dealers. That is. of course,
not the intention and 1t cannot be the
effect. The purpose Is to strike down
monopoly and restraint Of trade, big
or little.
THE Statutory provision of the act
defining trusts is that 1t makes it un
lawful to make any agreement, di
rectly or indirectly, which will pre-
clude free and unrestricted competi
ton in business. Monopolies have toe
often accomplished by indirectior
what they could not do directly. The
holding company is an example O
this. Where two or more companie:
by existing law could not make al
agreement in restraint of trade, the!
hit upon the scheme Of fusing AM
merging into holding company which
regulates the business of the subsid
iary companies in such a way as tt
restrict trade and increase prices"
