CENTRAL HIGH
 BASKETBALL GAMES

In one of the hardest battles of the pres ent season the junior quintet gave the high pennant asperations of the fighting freshmen a severe setback yesterday aft ernoon in the class games at Central High gymnasium, the final score being IS to z. The determination of the juniors was possibly the direct cause of their triumph. Their fight and team work has not been surpassed in any game this season. while the work of the freshmen was off color. They were practically outplayed in both halves. and they appeared as no cham pionship outfit. The effective pass work of their rivals puzzled them throughout the game The playing of Reevews IS the best seen on the floor to date. Barks was good on both the offensive and de- fensive for the freshmen.
 The sophs were handed a surprise pack age, and barely escaped with victory. Their score was IA to 5, the Paul Hayne boys falling before their attack. Davis made all of his team g points and led their attack, but to no avail. Agee and Held man were of the greatest use to the sophs
 Only a. few games remain to be played and the contest for pennant honors seems to be between the freshmen and juniors. Coach Courleux stated yesterday that this was the closest that any league has been near the close of the season.

GERMAN SURGEONS
 AND NURSES FREED

Paris. February 16.-t5.a5 P. m.e German surgeons and nurses sentenced. by eourtmartial, late in Novemhe CT to prison terms for alleged pillage at Pc. rome September To. and who appealed, were given q retrial today and aequit- ted. The decision of the court was that there was an absence of precise Iroof of tf-- -:leged theft.
 When the hospital at Peronne was captured by the French the bulky na- ture of the baggage of the German SUI . geons and nurses aroused suspicion. A search was ordered and 1t was alleged that in the baggage of Surgeon Major Collins, who with Surgeon Major Wohl- fart, was In charge of the hospital. there were found three Tanagrah stat uettes with labels of the Peronne mu- scum attached to them In the baggage Of the nurses it was charged that there were pieces of silk, carpets and hne linen. The nurses asserted, it was stat ed, that these things had been given them by the Carmelite sisters in ap- rreciation of their kindness to the French wounded
 The hospital belonged to the second Germany army corps.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION

In the first four months of the wal shipments Of war materials aggregated almost s6o.0o.ooo. and according to trust worthy accounts they have passed the sioo. .eooo0o mark now. This does not in. clude the enormous export of foodstuffs and other commodities which have gone out in unprecedented volume since the be ginning of 1915
 Except in instances where credits had been established here. payment for these exports was made In pounds sterling. francs marks and other foreign moneys. These bills are now pressing on the ex- change market and their extent, coupled with Eneland's refusal to release gold in sufficient quantity to meet demand, have been the primary factors in depreci- ating rates. The situation has put all foreign gold at premium.
 The market has become so deranged that a number of contractors and other exporters of supplies. It Is stated, have de eided to demand future payments in dol lars. This plan will necessitate the plae- ing of additional credits in this country by foreign governments and individuals The British and Russian governments have established credits. but amounts available are said to be inadequate.

CLOSE Is STEADY
 AT AN ADVANCE Unsettled Feeling in New York Cotton Fails to
 Affect Prices

New York February 16-The unsettled feeling which has been noted in the local cotton market for the past several days was reflected in the talk around the ring again during todays trading, but prices ruled generally steady and closed steady at net advance of from 3 to 9 points.
 Liverpool cables were better than due on the New York close of last night, but evidently created very little buying power, and after opening at an advance of to 6 points, prices here eased off under scattering liquidation Continued nervousness over the shipping situation and predictions of heavier spot offerings with the advance of the season for new crop propositions appeared to be the fac tors most talked of on the setback The expectation of an increased difference De- tween Liverpool and New York was en- couraged by a further decline in the rate of sterling exchange as well as by ap- prehensions of check to the export movement or an advance in war risks.
 Offerings, however, were not heavy and were we'll enough absorbed on decline of to 3 points from last nights closing figures to turn the market stead'er. Ral- lies followed on a moderate demand from trade sources and covering, which was proDabiy pronoteo py ehe eoh'i.'ueu isoa v , exports and the steady showing or the southern spot markets. Last prices were within a point or two of the best.
 It was holiday in New Orleans which probably restricted general business to some extent, but houses with New or leans connections were moderate buyers here during the early trading.

New York February l6.-Demoraliza- ton in foreign exchange markets has af- feeted the big financial interests to such an extent that a meeting of international bankers may be called soon to readjust conditions, financial experts said today.
 Sight drafts on London sold down to 47sd today. the lowest In generation, but recovered before the end of the mar ket session. The drop in exchange was followed by announcement of another small importation of gold-s2,5oo, ,ooo-that amount having been released by the Bank of England from the large sum now to it's credit in Ottawa.
 Exchange between New York and most parts of continental Europe, while less unsettled than at London. pointed to acute strain Francs, reischmarks and Tires were quoted at increased discounts, and some conservative banks and banking houses declined to engage in any actual transactions.
 The situation Is largely the outgrowth of the country's heavy extra exports to Europe.

ADVANCE IN WHEAT
 NOT SUSTAINED
Market Is Lifted by Pr0s- pect of Big Export
 Business

Chicago. February l6.-Prospeets Of a liberal export business gave the wheat market a big lift today, but the hope of continued free sales to Europe was not realized quickly or in full. and some of the advance disappeared. There was an unsettled close at 2l4 @314 . above last night. Corn finished F e ss c to A Q 7sc down, oats off A 0 sse to 9s c and provisions up 5m221sc.
 It was not until after dealers In wheat had left the pit that the fact be- came definitely known of million bushels having been disposed of at the seaboard today for transatlantic ship ment.
 Corn showed more pronounced weak ness than has recently been the case The great stocks on hand resulted in much selling pressure.
 Oats dragged lower with wheat.
 Provisions kept in line with a rise in quotations for hogs.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS
 HOLD ATTENTION
Stock Market Is Almost Ig- nored During the Days
 Session

New York February 16.-Foreign affairs ugain held Wall streets attention today, almost to the exclusion of the stock mar ket itself. Another sharp decline in ex- change on London was followed by an engagement of a small amount of gold by a local banking house. the metal com- ing from Ottawa. Receipts of a small shipment of gold coin from London for transfer to Cuba bore lightly upon the exchange situation. Later in the day the rate for remittances to London be- came more normal recovering to point we'll above the low quotations of the morning.
 Another aspect of the financial situation was the heavy trading in bonds for future delivery. Brokers were almost unanimous in the belief that this denoted further European liquidation of our securities, mainly for German account. It seemed to be accepted as a fact that several ships soon due at this port would bring in quantity of stocks and bonds which have been disposed of ill this manner.
 Stocks rose and fell in halting manner. leading issues being comparatively neg leeted for the manipulated specialties, IleSe moving III COnIrdTy ldSiioi. II UT example, Mexican Petroleum added over 3 points to it's recent decline, making a total of almost points in two days. Pittsburg Coal preferred rose 3 points in connection with the proposed sage of some of it's properties, which was expected to rebound to the advantage of the share holders.
 Changes elsewhere were mostly nonli- nal, except for isolated issues like Mon tana Power, Texas company and the oil and motor stocks. Favorites, including United States Steel and the international list were under frequent pressure. Union Pacific and Pennsylvania exhibited special heaviness in the final dealings. After the close New Haven's minimum was re- duced from 49 to AT, and that of Southern Railway preferred from 50 to 4S.
 Time money was not quotably altered, but the supply was so large as to cause some large lenders to withdraw from the market. The recent Russian credit of $25, O00,000 has absorbed some of the inactive supply.
 For the most part bonds were lower, the new Pennsylvania 4H's being the most conspicuous exception. Total sales. par value, amounted to $2,S2S,000.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, February lS.-tspecial)-In Liverpool the feeling in the cotton market is not as pessimistic as it is here and prices there were better than expected. Manchester is reported as doing a good business, largely on war contracts, but after six months of using old stocks of cotton goods it Is evident that there are inauiries for goods from the distant east.
 Here the market after losing the open ing advance regained 1t and closed at the best on very light transactions. We see no change in the pessimistic tone of the local trade. although their atten- ton to the large exports Is noticeable.
