TODaY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, Oct. 27.-WHEAT-Sharp ad-
vances In the price Of wheat resulted today
from news that the rains yesterday in
Argentina instead of breaking the general
drought had been only slight, and that
the moisture in North Argentina was too
late anyhow to be Of value. An unusual
scarcity of offerings were tended further
to handicap the bears, and so, too. did
continued stormy weather in Canada where
threshing has been virtually at a stand
STILL Opening prices. which ranged from
lie to 3%c higher, with December at $1.S2
to S1.S4A and May at $1.S2 to $1.S3, were
followed by moderate additional gains and
then something of a reaction.
Assertions that exporters and foreign
governments were the largest holders of
December options and would insist on de-
livery of grain instead Of a settlement by
payment of money differences led after
ward to a fresh bulge Closing prices here
were strong at Sc to 53xc net advance,
with December at $1.S6 to $1.S61s and May
at $1S4 to $1S4%.
CORN-Corn rose with wheat to PC
higher.
A new upturn ensued in line with the
late ascent of wheat and as result of a
falling off in the volume of country Of
ferings. The close was strong at 1Ac to
1ssc net advance.
OATs-Oats responded to the strength
of other cereals.
PROVISIONS-Shorts covering in lard
brought about a general advance of the
provision list. Weakness in the hog mar
ket was ignored.

WESTERN RANDOM
SICK FIGHT CAME
White Welsh Farce and Accident Due
10 Collapse of Stands Brings
Movement to Stop Boxing.

Colorado Springs, Colo, Sept. g.
One of the results of the Welsh-White
fight and its accompanying grand stand
crash was the launching of a move
ment yesterday to end prize fighting.
Many persons opposed to the game
others to their views. Added to this
was the general dissatisfaction of the
fans with Referee Roche's verdict.
The riot scene when he gave his deci-
sion also lent bad taste to the affair.
Even supporters of the game were
pointing out that it has been seriously
injured by the events here, coupled
with the unfair and evidently fixed"
exhibitions, given several times in
Denver.
Clarence A. Hamlin and Clarence P.
Dodge, local newspaper proprietors,
announced themselves as opposed to
the fight game.
Freddie Welsh, his wife and baby
and Manager Harry PoIlak left for
Denver yesterday. They will go to
the Pacific coast in a few days The
White party will return to Chicago by
the end of the week.
According to an announ cement the
total receipts were $30.718. Out of this
amount Welsh received $15,309 and
White a fat $4,000. The amount paid
to Welsh included his guarantee of
$4,000, his expenses Of 81 900 and his
80 per cent of the gate receipts above
$4,000. or 81 500. The officials of the
Hundred Million Dollar club say they
have paid every item of Indebtedness,
and that the fighters and their man
ayers are well satisfied with the treat
ment accorded them by the club man
agement.
Welsh and his wife and baby mo-
tored to the summit of Pixies Peak be-
fore they left for Denver Nate Lewis
and wife and Charley White left for
Denver yesterday afternoon. Referee
Roche departed for Denver last night.

NORRIS WILLIAMS
TAKES NET TITLE
Philadelphia Expert Downs William VI.
Johnston Yesterday at Forest
Hills Courts.

Forest Hills, N. Y, Sept. 6.-For the
American courts, r. Norris Williams
II of Philadelphia, won the national
turf singles championship at the West
Side club here yesterday afternoon
when he defeated William NJ. Johnston
of San Francisco, the 1915 champion,
in five set match, 4-6, ca, Go,
"a, "a.
While the contest between the two
champions of 1914 and 1915 had a
nerveracking climax, the match con-
sidered as a whole was hardly up to
the tennis expected from these two
masters OF racquet and court. The
gallery of closely 10000 spectators
who gathered to witness the final act
of the 36th annual tournament of the
national association looked for a won
derful and thrilling exhibition from
the two survivors of the 12S entrants
who started play here more than a
week ago. In the main, however, they
were disappointed, for while there
were occasional brilliant rallies and
flashing strokes. both Williams and
Johnston, in their endeavors TO play
carefully, unconsciously eliminated
much of the dash and fire from their
racquet and foot work.
The fortunes of the players swung
first one way and then the other as
each had moments of advantage. but
there was lacking the sensational
lighting of the ball back and forth
across the net, which was so marked
IN the Murray-Church and other sim
liar contests in the preliminary rounds.
A careful analysis of the play dur
cb E,t
llams ran far ahead OF Johnston in his
ability to score both service and place
ment aces, he piled up many more err
rors than the San Franciscan. There
was but four points difference in the
totals of the two players at the end of
the match and they were tied in the
number of games won.
