New York, Nov. 16.-Settlement of contracts for both accounts. fear of untoward events over the week end, and announcement that the focal money pool intends to maintain exist ing credit restrictions served to un- settle today's short stock market ses- sion.
 Fully one third of the trading was confined to such leaders as United States Steel, shippings, Mexican Pe troieum. Southern Pacific and promi- rent equipments, other fndustrials, rails aid specialties following in minor degree.
 Marine preferred immediately mani fested reactionary tendencies. falling 5 l2 points to its recent low figure, railying materially, but yielding again in the final dealings.
 Other favorites, especially United States Steel lost ground when Bald win Locomotive, Studebaker and re- lated&e equipments fell back. Rails were dull until the end, when pressure of offerings caused the Pacifics and coalers to surrender gains of 1 to. l t~2 points. the tone at the close being distinctly heavy.

The boxing lid went off with a bang at New London Saturday evening. One of the best exhibitions Of boxing seen in these parts for some tir,e was on the programme, also a numb sr of bouts in which the principals made no at tempt to conceal their feelings toward each other Incidentally this was a show that Norwich should have had, as it is understood that the idea of running a show for the war drive was started here, but for some unknown reason it never was realized
 A large crowd of ladies, officers, en- listed men and civilians turned out to see the show which was directed by Ed Thoop, and at o'clock Lawrence hall was practically sold out. A number of. Norwich sports would not be denied and journeyed into the wilds of New London and were repayed for their trouble.
 Selections hy the Submarine Base band were worth the price of admis- sion alone.
 One of the features Of the evening was the imitation of . Whistling Nightingale, by Private .Tilcs of Fort Terry, who warbled to the tune of
 Butterfly" and Smiles" and was forced to respond to several tremend ous encores.
 The show was huge success fnan- cially.
 The main bout was all that the most pessimistic critic could ex- pect. It brought together Blond" Lar " Williams of Bridgeport and Sailor Chamberlain of the Sub Base. Both are conders for the light heavyweight championship of the world Williams is already matchel to fight Jack Demp- sey. The men weighed 175 pounds.
 In the first round Larry started in by jabbing and hooking vicious lefts to the Sailors head. the Sailor count cred with left jab, in the next in stant Williams shot a terrific upper cut and doubled to body and head with such speed that Chamberlain was daz- ed, for the remainder of the round Larry was content with an occasional jab or hook. Williams round, easily.
 In the second round Williams start ed with a left hook and took a left jab in exchange. Larry came back with a left jab and hook. Chamberlain then shot a left to the head, in a sharp ex- change in the center of the. ring the big Blond pummelled Chamberlain $ stomach with both hands and forced

him to give ground. The sailor tried a left hook but failed then shot a right to jaw, followed by iab. Larry in return uppercuts and left hooks to head and closes the round with vii cions left hooks to the sailors head. Williams round.
 Tn the third Chamberlain tried to jab and missed Williams countered with left to head In mixing the sail or had the advantage. After they broke Chamberlain chopped a wicked left to the face. Williams replied with an uppercut The sailor hooked a left to the head as the bell rang. Chamber lain's' round,
 Tn the last session Larry sent in an uppercut and repeated with two more and shot his left to the sailors face, who in return sent two rights to Will jams stomach They finished up by slugging toe to toe style, but Larry soon forced the sailor all o7er the ring. Referee Denig called the bout draw but it was away high by q mile. The referee afterwards gave his reasons for the draw decision, which were very poor.
 The semi-final was fully as interest ing as the main bout. It brought Jackie Norman of the Base and Terry Mitchell of Brooklyn. These men were supposed to box, but Terry got Jackie's
 goat in the first round. Jackie came back, however, and it was easly his fight.
 | Another bout in which considerable interest was manifested was between Abe the Newsboy and Joe Wolcott, ex- worlds weIterweight champion. Joe,
 only a shade of his forrprr self, had
 the better of his go with the Hebrew punching bug.
 At the close of the bouts the Sub
 Base band rendered The Star
 Spangled Banner, and Ill stood at attention.
 A number of sailors passed great
 deai of caustic criticism on a certain
 Norwich promoter who they claimed
 charged them an excessive price for
 the use of a ring at one of their shows | in this city, If this is so it an act
 to be deplored as it is just such small cheap, tricks as that that IS hurting l the boxing same all over the country. 1 The sooner that this breed of would
 be promoters are weeded out, the bet
 ter for the boxing game in general. | Jack Denig refereeded the bout in
 his usual good style. The only mistake
 he made was the decision in the main bout, which was excusabit.

economic era and its mediate effect
on prices is difficult to anticipate.
The prices of some food commodities
may increase, but others will de-
crease, because with liberated ship

ert N. Harper, chairman Of a special

asked to name members to serve on
the committee of arrangements.
Several members of the committee ac-
companied Mr.. Harper to the White
House this morning to make sure that
a demonstration would meet with Off
cial approval. Joseph P. Tumulty, the
Presidents secretary, told Mr.. Harper
to set the day for the parade and that
