Boston, Oct. 31.-Sir Thomas Lap- ton, four times challenger for the Americas cup, today expressed a de- sire to purchase the schooner yacht America, which brought the cup to this country in 1851. In a cablegram to Hollis Burgess he said that he had just heard that the famous racer was for sale and asked to be informed inn mediately as to the price and other particulars. MT. Burgess turned the message over to c. H. w. Foster and Henry A. Taggard, Boston yachtsmen. who recently bought the America to save her from being broken up for junk.
 Members of the New York Yacht Club, custodian of the Americas cup, also are said to be anxious to pur- chase the yacht, but the present own CTS have not announced whether they will sell.
 If the America remains on this side of the Atlantic, it is said, she will be used either as a yacht or as marine museum It is understood the plan of the New York men is to employ the vessel as a permanent committee boat for yacht races. Sir Thomas Lipton gave no indication as to what use he would make of the boat if he secured it but yachting men thought he might want the old racer for a pleasure yacht when racing is resumed after the war.

 United States Steel was singled out at the beginning by the bears who dfcated a reaction in that industry. The stock was offered in single lots of 1000 to 5000 shares down to it's re- cent minimum of e9 1-S. but closed at 100 34. a loss of two points. Other equipments and more specific war is sues rallied variably from extreme losses of to points.
 Weakness of rails constituted the most disconcerting feature of the mid session, but Canadian Pacific came forward impressive1y with marines in the last hour and a few high priced specialties also registered full recov- cries. Sales amounted to 100000 shares.
 Virtually all international and do- mestic bond issues, including war f1o- tations, were materially lower on lighter offerings. Liberty As were steady at par. but the 1-2's covered the wide range of 99.SO to 99.96 Total sales (par value) aggregated $4,750,- 900.

 Birmingham. Louisville and Balti- more are bidders for the Southern of New York; Wilmington, Del: But fer, Pa. and Baltimore are the bid ders for the Eastern Handicap. Bal .imore in making an effort to land either the Southern or Eastern Hand icap places itself in a unique posi- tion.
