Willard Fulton 10 Round Bout Bone of
 Contention Among Promoters.

Jess Willard and Fred Fulton posi- lively will stage their 6n-round drama, ''The Champion and the Logi- cal Contender" this spring Unless the legislature ties a large and clanking tin can to the caudal appendage of the boxing game the drama will be staged somewhere in greater New York with appropriate settings.
 As every student of history knows heavyweights into the ring than it daes to get two first class nations into Q war. Consequently, Tom Jones will soon declare that Jess Willard will re- fust to fight Fulton under any circum- stances because of some marked diff ference of political opI1ion or some thing like that. Then Norman Force manager of Fulton, will write three sharp notes and seven ultimatuEas. But eventually they will be derricked into the ring.
 in a profuse precipitation, despite the zero weather, in their efforts to obtain the practically priceless signatures of the two Gladiators. There will be some feverish bidding in the next week or so Grant Hugh Browne, of the Garden will find plenty of competition The business men of the game are begin ming to recall that the Willard Moran fight drew S151.00 and are speculating on the Willard-EultOn bout drawing at least that.
 The Willard-Fulton embroglio would be more attractive because people are beginning to believe that the plasterer of Rochester Minn., has a good chance Moran had something less than @ Chinaman'S chance when he stepped into the ring with the champion.

NO BASEBALL STRIKE THIS YEAR
Long Controversy Ended by Statement of David L. Fuz OwDers Will Not Discriminate Against Fraternity Play ers-Asnerican League Gives No Assurance

President Tener, and in reply to a query as t0 whether he would give similar assurance, he said:
 .So far as the fraternity is concern ed, we give no assurance. All of our players look alike to us. About S5 per cent, of them have signed 1917 con- tracts and if the men come along to their training quarters, well and good. That is all the assurance that the American league will give"
 Chairman Hermann of the national commission stated that there was a clause in all the major league con- tracts for 1917 which protected the players from discrimination on ac- count of membership in the fraternity and both of the major league presi- dents also called attention to this fact. At the meeting of the National league here today it was unanimously decided that no change in the regular printed form of contract which was adopted by the national commission would be tolerated by the league. AS this is the league, the players in both major leagues seem to be protected against any undue discrimination, so that no further trouble in this respect is ex- pected.
 The national commission was to have held a session here today, but it will not meet until tomorrow morning. The National league srnagnateS fin ished their session late today, leaving the playing schedule for 1917 in the hands of President Tener, who will make it public the last of this week.

New York, Feb. 14.-There will be no strike of baseball players this year. This ending of a long controversy was assured when President David L. F,ultz Of the Baseball Players Frater- nity issued here today the following statement:
 which the major league owners have been placed in the present baseball controversy between owners and play CTS, the fraternity has submitted to the owners the following proposal:
 gro release all players from their pledges not to sign contracts upon the understanding that the owners will not discriminate against fraternity play CTS nor discipline them for their loyal ty to the fraternity in observing their pledges"
 Early in the day Manager McGraw of the New York Nationals and Pres ident Fultz held a conference at which the fraternity executive said that if he was assured the members of the Play ers' Fraternity would not be- discrim- mated against financially or otherwise by the major league club owners, he would release the men from their pledges.
 McGrav immediately vent to see President Tener of the National league and after the situation had been ex- plained to him. MT. Tener said-
 "You can assure MT. Fultz that I give my WOTQ UT snOnOT, as lltc p1 CSA- dent of the National league, that the National league will not discrimina ate, in any way. shape or manner. against any ball player because of his con- nection with the fraternity"
 Upon receiving this statement from President Tener, McGraw declared to several newspaper representatives:
 .T feel perfectly justified in am nouncing that to IlSintentss and pur- poses the strike Is off insofar as it affects the National league."
 When President Johnson of the American league arrived here later in the day to attend the annual schedule meeting of his league tomorrow, he was informed of the action taken by

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DULL.
Operations Were Confined to a Few
 Groups of Professional Traders.

New York, Feb. 14.-Trading on the stock exchange today was superficial to the last degree, total sales Of SVo,- 900 shares being almost the Hghtest or any full session this year, and the smallest, with one or two exceptions, since the middle of last year.
 Operations were confined to a few groups of professional traders, that element reversing its moderate optim- ism of the previous day to the extent of renewing commitments on the short side.
 The only noteworthy or unusual feature was the relative activity Of Central Leather, dealings in that stock at an extreme advance of 3-4 points overlapping the turnover in U. 5. Steel, which invariably leads the list.
 Overnight developments, particularly the situation in Cuba, found direct re- hection in the course of sugar issues, Cuban-American Sugar making gross decline of points, while South Porto Rico which may derive some benefits from the disturbances in Cuba, made an extreme gain of 12 points.
 U. s. Steel ranged between 106 7-S and 105 5-S, closing at 105 3-4, net loss of one point. Related industrials were one to two points lower, with as much for metals, while shippingS, oils and utilities, particularly gas shares, were down two to almost four points.
 Rails were under steady restraint, probably in consequence of the weak ness O1 NEW 11AfOur Wh4SA ACSO40C0 the minimum price in its history at 87 1-2, to the accompaniment of fla miliar rumors respecting the future of that property. Lowest quotations were made all around in the final hour, the movement being accelerated by re- ports of the sinking of an American merchantmen In the European war zone.

On Tuesday evening at the Elks' club one of the most hotly contested bowling games of the duckpin tourna- ment was pulled off. Jerry Lucy's Old Timers turned the trick on Tuttle's Royal Rooters, taking two out of the three games
 Tuttle's murders took the first game by the margin of Il pins. lost the sec -ond by the scant margin of 1 pin and were 'defeted but not disgraced," as Julius aptly put it, when, having the game apparently sewed up, John Ring. who had been laying back during the two previous games, uncovered a burst of new stuff and hurled the pill down the alley for a total of 1O2 pins, pull ing the game out Of the fire and giving the. Old Timers a look-in at the pen uant.
 Ring was high single with a total of 102, but the consistent rolling of Gee with strings of 99. 95 and 100, giving him high three string total of 294, did much to secure the advantage for his team.
