MARKET CONTINUES DULL.
Prices Were Substantially Better Than
 During Previous Day.

New York Nov 24.-The approach ing holiday afforded an excuse if not an actual reason for another dull ses- sion on the stock exchange, although days small output. With a few. ex- captions, prices were substantially bet ter. several new maximums being scored by high priced specialties.
 All the oil shares were strong, Texas Company leading with an advance of 20 1-4 to the new record of 200. Cubarf-American Sugars advance of 3-4 to 150 established a new high price for that stock, while South Porto Rico Sugar rose 5 1-4 to 135 1-4-
 War issues were not materially af fected by the intimation that the allies may cease further purchases of muni- tions in this market. Some of these stocks advanced 1 to 3 1-2 points, the greatest gain being made by Crucible Steel preferred. as a result of renewal of dividends. Baldwin Locomotive sold off toward the close on failure of the directors to declare a dividend on the common stock.
 Stocks like Sears -Roebuck, Wool worth and May Department Stores were ? to points higher, also North American, United Fruit, Pittsburgh Coal preferred and Virginia Iron, Coal. Iron and Coke. Rails were irregular during the early session, chiefly be- cause of the persistent pressure against New Haven, which Tell o-S 10 70 o-o, but later pronounced improvement was manifested. the rise coinciding with the publication of Southern Pacific's earn ings for October. These disclosed a net increase of almost S1,20O,000 and call ed renewed attention to the prosperous conditions in which leading transporta- tion companies are sharing to an un- usual degree.
 Metal stocks were active. for the most part at higher levels, Utah ad- vancing 1 3-4 to 80 on the benefits its stockholders are expected to derive from the distribution of Guggenheim Exploration holdings. American Smelt- ing also rose materially toward the end. gaining 8 1-2 at 100 3-4, but losing some of this advance on realizing sales. There was steady absorption of U. S.

COLUMBIA BENEFITED BY
 RESTORATION OF FOOTBALL
Revival of Game Brings More Ath-
 Ietes to New York College.

William M. Hollenback, captain of
 the U. of P. football team of 1908,
 and All-American halfback. in an ar
 ticle in the New York Sun, says that
 the revival of football at Columbia is sure to help that university. His ar
 ticle follows:
 Football fans throughout the coun-
 try are watching the progress of Col
 umbia university. After a lapse of 10
 years the Morningside Heights insti-
 tuition lifted the ban on the great fall
 pastime and the game is again a ma
 jor sport to the Blue and White.
 After enjoying years of fame and
 prosperity on the gridiron the student
 body and lovers of football in New
 York were shocked in the winter of
 1905 when the faculty placed a ban on
 football. The activities of President Butler were largely responsible for the abolition of the game after one of the most disastrous seasons the grand old game ever had in the way of deaths and accidents. That one season was
 more responsible for the changes in game than any other. and yet I do not l think it was rougher than 1t had been so, and I was one of the examples 1 named by the esteemed president of Columbia, as sustained a broken leg | in practice in my sophomore year, cannot understand to this day how President Butler managed to carry his point as the game had many stapch supporters in the faculty.
 The fact that Columbia again has | adopted football as a major sport is sure to have it's effect on the incoming ] classes in the next few years. Ath- fetics from Greater New York and viz | cinity will hesitate before matricu- I lating elsewhere, as has been the case | in the last ten years. Educationa1Iy Columbia is one of Americas lead | ing institutions and athletic students will naturally feel inclined to enter
 Columbia in preference to other in stitutions which have been drawing | the cream of football material when it can provide both educational and | athletic, advantages Football critics are watching with ] interest tha return of +Cnlumhia for

CADETS HAVE GONE
 THROUGH HARD WORK
Coaches Give West Point Stiff Drill
 in Preparation for Navy Battle.

West Point. N. Y, Nov. 24.-The final heavy work for the Army foot ball team in preparation for the Navy game was gone through today. The coaches drove the big team through a .stin hours drill with the scrubs or Navy eleven. Most of the time was spent on the, defensive, but the men were also put through a long session at rehearsing the plays in dummy scrimmage, the backs walking through the formations. New plays designed to baffie the Navy lads got specially careful polishing from Head Coach Daly.
 Several changes were made in the makeup of the varsity, but those men used in the substitutions were first string players who are likely to get into the Navy game at some stage. On the line, Knight alternated with O'Hare at guard and Parker worked for while in Captain Weyand's place at right tackle. Gerhardt drove the backheld combination which is book ed to start for the Army on Saturday, consisting of Ford and Oliphant at halves and Coffin at full.

Aside from the fact that the fight fans are likely to survive during the coming month. despite their inability to see the cheese champ or the Zulu Kid in action, the suspension of the two fighters marks a clearly defined policy on the part of the new boxing com mission to protect the patrons of the sport from the Fabian policy of pugs, their managers and the clubs them selves, all of whom would much rather keep the dear public waiting than anything else they do.
