New York Feb. 6-Strength in spe- cia1 stocks at tre opening, heayiness in all divisions at midday and recoV- cries in all except rails and shippings in the later dealings summarized the highly irregular and cratic course of today'S operations.
 Initial advances, some of which at tained impressive proportions, were al- together wiped out during the noon hour, when disturbing rumors touch ing upon the international situation were current throughout the district
 In the final hour which proves to be the most active of the session, equip- ments and other issues more or less directly associated with the war group rose 3 to points from lowest levels but rails and shippings hung back.

 Unusual activity prevailed in the market for United States government bonds at declines ranging from 3-4 to 1-2 per cent. Panama issues were similarly affected, the recession being aseribed to selling by banks in antici- patton of a new government f1otation to meet Impending emergencies.

NEED OF NEW CHAMPION
American Lightweight Title Holder Should be Selected
 Leonard Bright Light-Dundee Out of Running

Who Is the American lightweight champion. a fan wants to know. This is & title that seems to be overlooked just now by the press agents although the latter are seldom caught mapping. When Willie Ritchie lost the worlds title to Freddie Welsh. foreigner. 1t was conceded that the American re- tained the championship of the coun- try.
 Ritchie neglected to press this point however. as for the first year or so he was too intent upon winning back the honors he had lost to Welsh. By the time Ritchie was satisfied that Welsh did not intend to give him a chance to regain the worlds title the Califor- fore at the present time there is no recognized American lightweight champion.
 Since Welsh appears to have no in tention of meeting a live contender in a championship battle to decision, 1t looks like good time to feature the American championship. In the past long that there was no reason to men, ton the lesser, honor. but now that Welsh has withdrawn the worlds title from competition. the only thing to do is to feature the American title unless the men who are willing and anxious to fight are to be left with nothing to fight for.
 Leonard impressive Performer.
 On past performances Benny Leon ard is the most impressive performer and undoubtedly would be elected the American champion If the matter were put to the vote of those who have seen him in action. Leonard has done ev- erything in his power to induce Welsh to meet him over a 20 round route, but the latter's demands have been so ab-' surdIy high that it is clear that he has not the faintest idea of fighting.
 Next to Leonard came Joe Yelling and Charles White, who seem to be about on 8 par. Yelling is a good I boxer and a very clean. sharp hitter with his right. Like White his worst fault Is that he is inclined to hold back when he should be forcing the pace. Yelling has a big advantage in his unusual height and reach. He is the tallest of all the men who claim to be lightweights. and yet he can
