COULON LOSES BANT TAMWEiCHT TITLE
Kid Williams Knocked Him Out in Third Round With Hard Punch to the Chin-Coulon Seemed Mystifed Where to Land Blows-Fight Fast and Lasted Only Eight Minutes

Ringside, Vernon. Calif., June g. Johnny Coulon, bantamweight cham pion of the world, lost his title tonight to Kid Williams of Baltimore who knocked him out with a stiff right handed punch to the chin in the third round of a twenty round match. The fighting favored Williams from the start. Coulon seemed to be unable to solve the problem of landing any where in the short interval of the first two rounds and was saved at the close of the second round only by the time ly ringing of the bell.
 At the opening of the first round the crowd repeatedly called for Wll- l'ams to get in and do it," evidently assured that he was capable of making good his claim to the championship title. Coulon landed but one really effective blow during the short con test. Toward the close of thS first round he managed to reach Wf1aams' face.
 Although the champion was obvious ly outclaSsed from the beginning, hIs blow to Williams countenance elicited cheers from the crowd.
 The fighting was fast and exciting rom the start. Williams held the cen- ter of the ring and kept Coulon spar ring near the ropes. When the former champion received the blow which de prived him of his title he fell nearly under the ropes. within a few feet Of Williams corner.
 As Referee Eyton raised the new champions arm, signifying him to be the winner the crowd rose and cheered Justify. Williams ran around the ref cree and attempted to assist the ex- champion to his feet. Coulon appeared shaky and scarcely able to walk. AS soon as he had gone a step or two he went to his corner unassisted, ho W ever, and refused Williams proffered

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SMALL ADVANCE IN STOCKS. Traders Showed Indifference to Out side nfIuences-Sentimen Was Cheerful

New York, June 9.-Another small advance in stocks occurred today While traders continued to show in difference to outside influences senti- ment was cheerful and the inquiry was broad. The good impression produced by yesterdays crop report was strengthened today by the favorable character of the weekly review Of weather conditions. The fortnightly report on idle cars showed a nominar increase Unofficial statements that the freight cases would be quickly de- cided again did service as bull factcr, it being said on this occasion that t2e ruling might be expected this week.
 The news factors noted stimulated buying of grangers and railway equip ment shares. The opening was irregu- lar, but the market quickly moved uD- ward, the rise reaching a point in some cases, with exceptional gains in tobac- co stocks and a few other specialties. The ease with which quotations were advanced on comparatively small buy ing indicated a scarcity of stocks, but bulls were not aggressive. and in the last half of the day trading was de- cidedly slow.
 Engagements of gold for Europe to day amounted to s5,500,000. making s10 500 900 thus far this week and $50 coo, coo for the movement. Ordi- nariiy such loss of gold might De expected to have a depressing inf1u- ence on the SeeGk market, but the same indifference Wa6 manifested today as heretofore.
 Money lenders said the market for time loans showed a slightly firmer tendency on account of the volume of gold exports. but there was no notable change in rates.
 Bonds were steady. although there were unusually wide movements among speculative issues. Virginia debt certificates sIumped 12 1-2 on the supreme court ruling which permits re- opening of the case, involving another delay.

MAJOR LEAGUERS SIGNED
 WITH THE FEDERALS.
Washington Player Asserts That He Knows of Six That Are Going Next Season.

That some players now living up to their 1914 contracts in the major leagues are under contract with the Federal league for next season is the surprising statement which has just been made by 8 member of the Wash ington club. This player declares that he knows six players who have hook ed Up with the Feds for next season, and he says that their salaries for next season have been placed in banks for thena- The players are now draw ing interest on this money, this being one of the stipulations made when 1t was put away for them
 The authority for the above further declared that during the recent visit of the Nationals to New York that he knew g players who are ready to go over to the FederalS as soon as their present contracts expire at the end of this season. Information which comes from persons close to the players of Clark Griffith's club makes it certain that Walter Johnson is not the only player whose future is turning GrifT s hair from gray to white. The attempts of the FederalS to get some of Griffith 8 players for next year are not viewed with pleasure at this particular time by Washington fans, who feel that the Nationals have a chance to win the perlnant. It is figured that dreams of future wealth will interfere with the work of the players in the present campaign.

ford Courant speaks of the matter in these words:
 Already Morton, the strikeout king of the Waterbury team, is attracting attention from the big fellows. Inas- much as the Waterbury club is noted among the majors as being farm for the Cleveland club and owned by Pres ident Somers, the big league scouts do not pay much attention to it. Tie Federals however, have no such that league has been dickering with Morton and is said to have made him a very good offer. Thus far Morton is keeping very quiet"

Says the Bridgeport Farmer: Bugs Raymond and Rube Waddell had noth- leading the squirrels a merry chase. Powers is as nutty as a fruitcake. The New London pitcher entertained a crowd at the Atlantic hotel. Bridge port, Saturday night by relating what against Springfield said Powers, ard passed the first two. Then a guy comes up and hits me for a circuit. But watch me against Bridgeport. I can tear off those boys any time Powers was batted out of the box by Bridge port and lost his first game of the year."
