FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET FLUcTUATED
Opened Active, TaPered OFF at Midday
and Closed Passive.

New York, March 28.-External af-
fairs as represented by the threatened
crisis with the Teutonic powers and
the-complex condition IN Mexico ap-
peared to exert very slight influence
today, so far at least as they bore
upon the more speculative aspects Of
the market. Prices were elevated quite
generally after an early interval of
uncertainty, especially the stocks to
register more than nominal Roadway.
Trading was fairly active during the
forenoon, tapered off materially at
mid day and become increasingly ap-
athletic in the final hour. Advances
were accomplished mainly at the eX-
pense of the short interest, which re-
Gently acquired formidable proportions.
Such favorites as Crucible Steel.
American Locomotive, the motors and
semi-active industrials and equipments
rose one to four points, but metals
and oils were relatively backward eX-
cept for Butte and Superior and Amer
lean Zinc. Coppers were variable, the
failure OF the Anaconda directors to
increase the dividend acting as re-
straint. Sugars were again distin-
guished for their neteoric flights, with
new high records for Cuban American,
which rose 16 to 245, and South Porto
Rico, on its gain of to 1877.
Rails and other investment stocks
were negligible features, but fairly
firm additional excellent February
statements contributing to that tone.
Western Maryland issues proved the
only noteworthy exception, both the
common and preferred reacting point
or more.
Bethlehem Steel added another Is
points to it's steady reversal of recent
days, falling to 40, and Mercantile
Marines We're heavy, in marked con-
| trast to the strength of United Fruit
United States Steel f1uctuated within

activity by half dozen stocks OF

Regardless of the apprehension ex-
pressed by contractors at the steady
rise in prices of fabricated steel and
iron, further advances in finished ma

The cat is out of the bag. Willard
yesterday confessed that he could
have knocked out Moran, but that he
did not want to do anything that
would have a bad effect on the box
il game in New York state. I did
OF knock out Moran because a knock
out would have a bad effect on the
fighting game in New York. and there
enough feeling against it now" he
said on arrival in Chicago Yesterday
after the scrap Saturday night
Il co not intend to retire" he de-
c'ared. Il am not that much of a fool

In to Stay.
Thus ali the words of soothsayers
and wise men are put to nought. The
Ing man is in the game to stay as long
as he can, and Will fight il out with
the best of them. Willard is not afraid
of Moran, anyone who saw him toy
with the challenger in the ring Sat
urday could see that easily.
Moran Bad Loser.
Moran is a bad loser and by his re-
peated assertions that he could have
knocked out Willard in the seventh
and his statement that he wants to
t'y conclusions again with the cowboy
IS losing friends. 1t is not that the
world loves a winner but that the fight

Attell and a few others are sticking

though Willard landed more punches

There is nothing on my working
list to bother me now for at least a
month, and l am going to spend the

that nothing will come in between to
interfere with my rest.

and, in fact, was poorer than l thought.
do not believe that a return match
would be desirable to the patrons of
boxing.
Sure of Defeating Moran.
However, if promoters insist that
Moran should be given another chance
and over a longer distance, / think
that Tom Jones, my manager. will ac-
commodate them. For that matter, /
would just as soon meet Moran as any
one else. l know l can defeat Moran
at any time and without any training.
OF the others, of course, there still ex-
its a doubt.
From the arrangements now l do
not believe 1 will be able to sign for
another bout for at least six months.
Jones is caring for that side of the
business, however, and what he says is
good enough for me. l am not espe-
