Financiei Statement.
NEW YORK, Apii 2e.-TfS tentative and
superficial character OF pre"ailing market
conditions was strikingly illustrated during
the week. An extensive and overconfldent
short interest was hurriedly driven to cover
In consequence OF the very substantial
extra" dividend voted the United States
Steel common. Record earnings Of that
corporation seemed to be regarded as
secondary consideration.
Better crop conditions and railway earn
ings exercised little beneficial effect. altho
rails participated In the rise. Effects by
pools to inject fresh interest into speculative
stocks met with slight success.
Further extraordinary advances in the mar
kets for f0odstuffs were viewed with greater
cnocern, but the hardening OF money rates
occasioned no apprehension.
The success Of the first war offerings OF
$500, 600, 900 has encouraged treasury Of
ficials to believe that the Increased under
takings soon to be negotiated will meet with
equal favor.
Russia's uncertain status in the in,erna.

 Play Well

Nashville, November 24.-(Special.) A team made up of former Vanderbilt stars, present-day ineligibles and re- serves crushed the Eleventh United States infantry team from Ft Ogle- thorpe this afternoon on Duty field, AT to [. Lewis Hardage, captain of the 1912 Commodore eleven and Red Floyd, who turned a Vandy defeat into victory over Auburn last year, were the offensive stars for Wander bilt, while Otto Schwill, former Mis- sissippi A. and M. player, and Will Hams, all-southern guard in 1916, were defensive bulwarks. The soldiers lone score resulted from pass inter- cepted on the five-yard line by Shields, who raced the remaining 95 yards for touchdown.
 The majority of the ex-Vandy stars practiced first together today at noon but marched the length of the field for the first touchdown on straight football In the second quarter they opened with a brilliant forward pass attack, Hardage handling the bail, which bewildered the soldiers. Out of IS efforts 10 passes were completed. Floyd intercepted two of the soldiers passes, running 25 and 40 yards for touchdowns. Only once during the game were the soldiers able to make first down.
