FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ACTIVE.
Relaxation of Money Rates Prompted
 Speculative Ventures.

New York, Dec 6.-Relaxation of money rates prompted fresh specula- tive ventures today. although the movement of stocks was hardly reg fiecting steady pressure. The max imum rate for call loans was seven pc rcent., with an abundance of of ferings later at 5 and a final rate of 8 per cent.
 The easing of money was ascribed to another heavy inflow from Canada, a total of s17000,00 being received here and in Philadelphia from that source. Further stabilization was of- forded by the large amount of Russian gold recently consigned to local bank CTS and the reduced demands from the Interior. virtually insuring a favorable bank return at the close of the current week. Price movements were often confusing, cheap rails moving to high CT levels while standard shares of that group were either hesitant or lower. Demand for the new Missouri Pacific Issues, all at record quotations, was a noteworthy feature. The recent in- Quiry for Rock Island, Lake Erie and Westerns, Wheeling and Lake Fries, Chicago and Alton. Missouri Kansas and Texts, Wabash A. & B. preferred, Toledo, St. Louis and Western and Southern Railway was well sustained, surface conditions indicating steady accumulation.

 Indies advancing points tothe new

cARPENTfER WOULD RATHER
 REMAIN AT THE FRONT
Bout With Willard Up to the French
 Authorities.

Paris, Dec. 6, 7.30 D. m-The per-
 Sonal desire or Georges Carpentier, the
 French aviator and champion heavy
 weight pugilist of Europe. is to remain
 with the French flying corps at inc
 front, a desire he has expressed each
 time an offer from the United States to arrange 8 bout for him has been
 received. The report that he has been
 given a furlough for match in New
 York with Jess Willard is at least pre- mature.
 From the reports received here it ap-
 pears that Carpenter by boxing in the
 United States could contribute appre- eiably to the var relief funds, and his manager Francois pescan.ps, told The Associated Press today that Carpenter might go there, provided he received permission. Thus far, however, no definite proposition for a bout between Carpenter and Willard has teen re- ceived here. Miss Elizabeth Marbury, who is prominently connected with French war relief work in New York. has been authorized, said Desca,nps, to acs for him in any negotiations in the United States.
 Carpenter. who is in Paris on. a few days leave of absence, was seen by The Associated Press representative today. He appeared to be in excellent condition. Carpenter said he was not thluking at present about boxing. but his pugilistic business was always in 1 the hands of Descamps, his teacher from the age of IA and his manager during all his boxing career Flying, he added, had sn no way slowed him up and life at the front had been ex- | cellent training for him.
 M DeScampS asserted that in an ex- hibition Carpenter gave at the Treca- 1 dero the pugilist was faster than ever. He added that the reappearance of Carpenter in the ring before the end
 of the war all depended, first, on the French military authorities, and sec
 onf, on the propositions that ne might receive.

Artemus l.. Gates of Clinton. Iowa, was Wednesday. night unanimously elected daptain of the Yale football team for next season. He has been on the varsity eleven two years as an end and tackle. His work in the Princeton and Harvard games this fall was brilliant.
 Gates was chosen after Clinotn R. Black. the retiring captain, had de- clined reelection. Black led on three informal ballots but on each occasion he declined the honor. On the fourth ballot Gates was the unanimous choice. IA Yale custom against re- electing captains ise believed to be Blacns reason for declining.
 Penn May be on ScheduIe.
 The prospects of Pennsylvania. again meeting Yale or Princeton are again being discussed and it appears likely that Penn will resume football relations with one of these univer- sities within the next two or three years. In the early days of the grid- iron game Penn. was one of the Big Four of football. playing games an nually with each of the teams which later gained the distinction of being called the Big Three. Breaks with all three left Penn. with less noted ri- vals.
 Not since 1893 have Yale and Penn. met on the gridfron. and the following year saw the end of the Prince ton series. Harvard and Penn contin- ued to play annual games until 1905, but have not met on the gridiron since that year.

CARRIGAN MAY STICK WITH BOSTON CLUB
Owners of Worlds Champions Could
 Persuade Manager to Help Out.

z After spending almost a full day in the company of Bill Carrigan at his home in Lewiston. Maine, T. H. Mur- nane is convinced that he woll consent to manage the Boston Red Sox for at least one more season, and feels sure that this statement will be hailed with delight by every. we'll wisher of the champions
 The securing of Carrigan will be wholly up to the new club owners. Messrs. Frazee and Ward, who have gone on record as saying that they will do everything in their power to induce this, great manager to lend atshelping hand to keep the Red Sox the same old fighting machine.
 Bill Cafrigan's friends in Lewiston have advised him to stick to the Red Sox for few more years, for they figure that. he can settle down in the old home town later on
 Perhaps the Lewiston fans are a bit selfish and feel the great success that Manager Hill has met with has been a good advertisement for their thriving city.
 'Is there a chance that youn would listen to the new owners to return ?'' MT. Carrigan was asked
 They might work on my sym pathy to help them out for a year. replied Carrigan, "but that would be the limit as I really want to retire to home life. I do not care to see the old club suffer, however"
 He was asked: Then you will be with: the club in the spring."

RAILWAY LINE OF RETREAT
 CUT OFF FROM RUMANIANs
Capture of Ploechti Places Rumania in
 Hazardous Position.

The capture of Ploechti. on the main
 railway line running north from Blu charest, cuts the main railway line of retreat for the Rumanian armies op- erating in the Bucharest region.
 The official statement does not in-
 dicate whether the entry of the Teu-
 tonic forces into Bucharest and Ploe-
 chti was simultaneous. The capture
 of Ploechti before that of the capital
 would be far more serious for the Ru-
 manians. Many military observers
 looked for the Rumanians not to at
 tempt a defense of the capital to the
 last, expecting an evacuation ;n time
 to save the forces defending it by
 withdrawal over the traikway route
 remaining to them.
 The taking of Bucharest virtually
 completes the conquest by the Teu-
 tonic forces of the southern section Of the Rumanian kingdom, embracing
 territory of more than 50,000 square miles.
 Brilliant Military Achievement The capture of Bucharest marks the continuation of an operation account ed by military commentators one of the most soundly conceived and bril- iantly executed strategical feats of the great war.
 From the hour when Field Marshal von Mackensen forced a crossing of the Danube and on November 24 set foot on Rumanian soil, effecting a junction shortly afterward with Gen eral won Falkenhayn's armies driving through Wallachia from the west, | there seemed little doubt of the ul- | timate fate of the Rumanian capital. l The relentless pressure of the Teu- tonic invading armies, with their pre- ponderance of heavy artillery, proved | too much for King Ferdinands forces | once the Rumanian front was broken I in western Wallachia and the Danube | crossed behind the line of the north ern Teutonic irruption.
 Rumanians Forced to Fall Back 1 Continuously outflanked on the south | by von Mackensen's advance, and on 1 the north by further Austro- German l irruptions through the mountain pass | es, the Rumanians had no choice but l to fall back upon the line of their | capital and now have been forced to yield even that.
 | The beginning of the Teutonic cam . 1 paign against Rumania dates back to 1 the Rumanian entrance into the war on August 27. Perhaps taken by sur l prise by the speed with which tho l Rumanians threw their troops across l the Pennsylvania Alps into Hungary and took possession of Kronstadt 1 Hermannsta and a wide sweep oi 1 Hungarian territory, the Austro-Ger- :. man military authorities were awake 1 to the opportunities in Dobrudja, or | the Rumanian southeastern front | Within a few days the BulgarIans | were found to be winning signal suc- I cesses along the Danube, capturing | Turtukai on September ' and Silis- | tria on the 10th. There remained 1 from the operation of clearing the re- 1 mainder of Dobrudja up to the impor- | tant railway line running from the
