NEW YORK COTTON

New York, Nov. 21-There was
good buying at the opening at better
than recent parity with Liverpool on
the theory that yesterdays revision
would result in sharp narrowing off
between the markets. Heavy selling
was Encountered at the advance, how
ever, from Liverpool, the south and
the leading local spot houses, while
the other big trade establishments
with Boston connections was credited
with extensive buying, especially of
January, and local operators absorbed
quite bit on the reaction theory. Sup
port was found poor in the latter part
Of the session and the close was bare
ly steady at the bottom. With the
trade less urgent buyer, while the
south is apparently disinclined to
make strong stand and speculation
| is timid on the bull side of anything,
a lower level is not unlikely.

AN ALUMNI ADVISORY
BOARD TO Be FORMED
Georgetown Will Resurrect Old
Athletic Body Again This
Season.

The president of the university, Rev.
A. J. Donlin, S. j.. realizing the great
good that Georgetown derived in years
on athletics decided to revive the
board, whose good work was inter
rupted two years ago by the death of
one of its members. That the new
board recently appointed by the presi-
dent will have the confidence and good
will of the alumni and the public in
general is certain. for its members are
not merely locally prominent. but are
known far ard wide for their legal
and business ability. They are Mr..
Lawrence y. Murray. ex-controller of
the currency; Mr.. Frank ]. Hogan of
the law firm of Baker, Sheehy & Ho-
gan: MIR. Joseph I. Weller. Il prominent
real estate broker Mr.. Charles l..
Roach. 4 we'll known attorney al law,
and Mr.. Hugh J. Fegan. secretary of
the law department of the university.
Mr.. Francis X. AnSlin, professor AT
the college. has been appointed faculty
director OF athletics. AS the name inn
plies. the new board will advise with
the executive committee elected from
the student body of the university on
all matters pertaining to the manage
ment of athletics. but its duties will
not stoD there. IT viii take over the
complete supervision Of The athletic
rituation and manage the fnances OF
the athletic association and so fix

tails Of the policy viii not be settled

tically certain. however, that they viii

group of stars which would have eaten
alive" any of the recent national tour
naments.
A movement is on foot To bring about
the amalgamation of the two leading To-
cal chess clubs-the Washington Chess
and Whist Club and the Capital City
Chess and Checker Club. That such a
move would be of incalculable benefit TO
the game in this city goes without say
ing. Neither club is at present finan-
cially able to stage events of proper In
terest and importance or to place in the
field a representative team for intercity
matches. Should the proposed combina-
ton be effected the players and the
wherewithal would be available for the
New York and Philadelphia clubs. which
were such enjoyable features OF chess
life here ten years ago. Many prominent
and influential members of both clubs
are heartily in favor of this union. and
il is to be hoped that the consolidation
can be effected in time TO make the com
ing seas III the most notable one In the
history of Washington chess.

DETROIT August 16.-Leave it to Mr..
c. Griffith. manager of the Washington
base ball team. to break into the public
prints with something new
Not tina; said Mr.. c. Griffith is pub
licity-seeking pest. or anything like that,
but ideas just naturally gravitate to him.
He was the person who saved money for
other American League managers and
club owners by refusing to pay fabulous
sums for sensational minor leaguers. and
he nodded the Nationals into a pennant
contender in springs training trip.
Now, with the close of the major league
season nearly two months distant and
the winner of the pennant not yet set
tled-that is to say, settled beyond argu-
ment-Griff1th comes out with the state
ment that Washington, Philadelphia and
Detroit look like the active contenders
for the 1914 pennant.
Grifiith.s disposition would not permit
running the tenants Of his head would
not allow him to place the Athletics in
the second division, and his base ball
sense leads him to believe that Jennings
will have a dangerous aggregation Of
players next season.
1.-The Detroit team has shown a vast
amount Of improvement in the past two
or three MONTHS said Clark this morn
ing. In the spring 1t was a hopeless
aggregation of players. But Jennings has
whipped the men into line and he will
give us a fight next year. He has two

Mcbride was more surprised than any.
