YALE HAS WIDE
 MARGIN OVER HARVARD.
Crimson Have Registered Only Nine
 Victories.

Notwithstandirg that it hasn't wen a game from Harvard on the, gridiran since 1909, Yale has wide margin on the Crimson in the games played up to the present season: The teams since 1875 have played 36 games. Yale has been victorious in 22 starts, five were deadlocks and Harvard finished on the long end of the count nine times. Harvard nas won five times in New Haven. three times on her own field and once in Springfield. Yale has won seven games at home, six times on Harvar1s field, five times in Springfield, twice in Boston, and sEe same numb3r of times in New York. Two tie games were played in New Haven, two on Soldiers field and one in the Stadium.
 Odd Features. t..
 An odd feature of the large number of games played is the fact that in only six of the games has the losing team scored, and al the tie games have been D to 0 scores. There were five years that the teams skipped without playing. In 1877 there wasn't any game. Again in 1885 the teams did not meet, and in 1895 and '96 no games were conducted between the old rivals.
 Harvard Won First.
 During tine early days Yale was far superior to the Harvard clan. The first meeting between the famous in StitutionS was in New Haven and Harvard won, 4 to C. The following year Yale won, 1 to q. Yale won the next year, and the fourth game re- suited in a tie. From 1880 to 1889 the Bulldogs won eight straight games, Harvard broke tie long losing string with victory over the Els in 1S9n.
 Won Four in Row.
 Yale then started another wild ram page and ran up another string of vic tories, winning four games in order. Harvard celebrated it's third victory in p years in 1901 on Soldiers field. winning by the pronounced score of 22 to 0. Yale resumed her winnins habit in 1902 and continued until 1907 without stop. In 1903 Harvard won, and the following year Yale won. Then the teams began to show a marked difference. Harvard loomed up as the stronger foe. Tie games were played in 1910 and 1911, and Harvard cluding last years game which was the longest run of victories ever made by Crimson eleven ever the Ellis.
 Highest Score. ...#
 The highest score ever made in an annual clash between the Crimson and Ellis was 43 to 0. Yale won the game back in 1884. The next best score was made last year. when Harvard romped nome winner 41 to 0. Six times the teams scored totals above the 20 mark. Harvard copped four of such games. Harvard was shut ont 16 times since the teams started play ing, and Yale has been blanked seven times. Two games were won by to 0 scores. This was back Tn the '7os, The lowest score in recent years was Harvard's to 0 victory celebra te.d over Yale in 1908.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DEPRESSED.
Declines Were Mostly Moderate, But
 Very General.

New York, Nov 23.-Traders seem ed in the mood today to accept with little or no reservation the many re- ports of g. character calculating to de- press quoted values. z These ranged from the stability of existing war con tracts to the measures employed by banking interests to check excessive speculation, and the international sit uation was injected with some effect.
 Declines were mostly moderate but very general, coppers, munitions and related issues including equipments, 3 points. Shipping shares also were heavy, a result ascribed to the loss of the Bratannic, although Atlantic, Gulf and West Indies rose briskly on inti- nations of an early distribution of profits to shareholders.
 Leather issues were comparatively strong cin connection with established trade conditions and some distinctive industrials as Bethlehem Steel and Lackawanna Steel made gross gains of substantial proportions, as did Gulf States Steel United States Steel was sold steadily in round amounts down to 124, an extreme decline of l 1-2, with no material recovery. Offer ings of Steel came from quarters us- ually represented by professional in terests. The stock contributed not less than fifth of the days deal lngS.
 Efforts to revive interest in motors and affiliated stocks met with indiffer- ent success and the operations of pools in other parts of the list were equally futile. Final prices in the more im- portant shares were at or near lowest levels of the day.
 Rails denoted the lack of public in terest so long shown in that group, despite the publication of additional excellent statements of earnings. Read ing Atlantic Coast Line, Rock Is- land and less prominent issues shad- ed a point or more on likht offerings. Total sales were 1,62O,000 shares.
 Call money rose to 4 1-2 per cent. toward the close, and time accommo- dations stiffened also, further discrim- ination being shown against industrial loans.
 Bonds were irregular, with copces- sions in most international issues. To- tai sales (par value) were $5,870,000.
 United States bonds were unchang- ed on call.

Annapolis, Md. Nov. 2s.-Confdent in the ability of their favorites to break the series of West Point vic- tories, twelve hundred midshipmen this afternoon hauled their team thsough the streets of Annapolis and gave them real send off when the start was made for New York, where on Saturday the nter-service football classic will be staged: The Navy team admittedly has shown more real foot ball this year than for many seasons past, and the Navy rooters see noth- ing to it hut Navy victory by de- cisiYe score.
 The Middy ,backfeld this season, while admittedly made up of excep- tionally speedy men, has the handi- cap of being composed of players who until this year had never played in a big game. The Navy coaches, how ever. profess confidence in their men.
