BOXING TOURNEY
 IN FULL SWING Finals to Determine the Army Championship Set
 for April 26
By Assooiated Press

Paris, April 20.-The boxing champion- ships have now reached the survival of the fittest stage and before General Pershing, Marshal Foch and a brilliant galaxy of officers from both the French and American staffs, the winners of the bouts on April 26 will be declared the champions of their respective classes in the American army.
 The semi-finals were finished Friday night but Colonel Johnson, athletic direc- tor of the American expeditionary forces, decided to give the boys the benefit of q full week of training before the finals. Those who will compete are:
 Bantams-"Babe" Ashier Detroit, Tvs. George Scribner, Philadelphia.
 Featherweights-John Fundy, Pittsburg, vs. Tommy Cherity, Brooklyn.
 Lightweights-"Bu "Busby' Graham, Brook- lyn, vs. Leo Patterson, Joplin, Mo.
 Welterweights - Johnny Summers. Brooklyn, vs William Kleck, New Or leans.
 Middleweights-Joh Clark. New York. vs William Walters. Philadelphia.
 Light vyweights-Eugene Tunney, New York, vs. Ted Jamieson, Milwaukee.
 Heavyweights--Fay Kaiser, PittsburS vs. Bob Martin, New York.
 The spectators at Friday nights bout mt the Circque de Paris were treated to one round of real fighting by Mdke O'Dowd, middleweight champion of the world.
 Mike had been sparring demurely through three uneventful rounds of his four-round exhibition with Jackie Clark, when the doughboys and officers present were amazed to see O'Dowd rush out of his corner and batter the be%il- dered Clark about with terrific punishing blows, while the crowd howled with glee. Clark went staggering back to his corner looking responsibility at O'Dowd through rapidly closing eyes.
 The crowd ignored the fact that between the third and fourth round Jimmie Bron- son, who was refereeng, walked 10 O'Dowd's corner and said:
 If you don't inject a little pep into this round I will raise ClHrk's hand and end the bout, and there goes your cham

HOWARD BAPTISTS
 ID MEET BARONS
 ON R|CKWOOD FIELD
East Lake COllegians Among Best in the SOuth-Walker Will Oppose Three
 Youngsters

This afternoon at 3:30 mana ger Molesworth will line his Baron clan up against the strong nine from the Howard college. This game should be a hummer as the college boys carry a fast bunch of ball play CTS. The game this afternoon will mark the last of the exhi- bition series before the open ing of the Southern league Thursday.
 Howard college has by no means a slow baseball team and the game this afternoon at Redwood will be full of pep. The Howard nine have played some nifty baseball thus far this season, and it is ex- pected that they will give the Barons 8 hard game
 In Walker and Martin the collegians have two cracka- jack pitchers, and the hOWard supporters are loohlHS lo tHeS0 men to baffle the local professionals with their superb twirling. This pair of pitch CTS has pulled the Howard team to the top of the college baseball world, and Moley's men will have to let themselves out to solve their mystifying twirling.
 The Barons will probably use two or three slabmen against the college team, but just who will start the game has not yet been decided upon by Manager Moies- worth However, it is thought that he will use Nations, Balmer, and Samuels. If Hairstons hand is in condition he will probably do the receiving
 Altogether it is going to be a fast game and good crowd is expected to be on hand to witness the last game of the eX- hibition series. The game will sHrt promptly at 3:30 p. m.

Weekly Metal Review

New York, April 20-The steel market continues very dull. The volume of new buying is extremely small and there is "a general feeling of depression. Local in : terests have to some extent discounted the controversy now on at Washington between the railroad administration and the industrial board of the department of commerce, and are now trying by every possible means to bring buyers into the market Results thus far have been far from encouraging, but there is better feeling in some quarters. There have been from time to time rumors of price shading by independent producers. These rumors when traced have not been substantiated
 Production rates by mills have shown a general downward tendency Of late. Iho leading interest is reporting little better than 75 per cent right now compared with range from 85 to 90 per cent aoou' a month ago. In the case of independent interests the level is around the halfway mark Call for tin plate has slowed down considerably Sheets are only in fair de- mand Wire products and tubular goods remain about unchanged.
 Pig iron is also dull, according to re- ports. by leading interests here. There are some signs that open trading condl : tions are being approximated. Buying is reported to be on strictly hand-to-moutf basis.
 The copper market Is very dull. It was reported in the trade that one large in- terest had shaded fractionally 35ssc pe' pound, delivered and obtained a small order This move was the first to be re- corded in about month.
 The lead market is dull and some inter- ests feel that prices have about reached bottom Spelter is weaker and there has been some shading.
 The tin market remains unchanged.

Corbett's Daily Letter
 On Greet Sport Topics
By JAI HES J. CoRBErr

Editors Note: This is the six teenth of series of articles which Mir. Corbett is writing concerning the pugilistic career of Jake Kilrain one of the greatest heavyweights that America--or any other country ever produced. The next instalment, will appear tomorrow)
 As the gong sent me into action against Jake Kilrain on that February night in 1S90 1 knew that my whole future as pugilist was at stake. To whip the mighty ringman-and to do it in decisive fashion-meant a giant stride on the road toward the absolute crest of the pugilistic world. To lose would shatter the ring foundation that I had been building through the earl jest years of my youth.
 kilrain was a powerful looking hu- man-one who inspired fear in the heart of most of the foemen who had faced him. He was of the old school fierce looking in ring appearance. hairy of chest and ponderous of frame. But l went into that battle unafraid and absolutely certain of winning.
 I had developed my natural speed to it's ultimate and had perfected myself in the scientific end of the game, Those accomplishments, I felt. would win for me over my bulky rival
 Those who witnessed the battle that night afterward declared that "Kilfain. in comparison with Corbett, was like a truck horse in race with worlds champion thoroughbred" Yet, strange as it may seem, Kilrain prior to that time had been touted as a really clever and shifty heavyweight. Charlie Mitchell had schooled him in the in tricacies of sidestepping, ducking and blocking, and had speeded up Kilrain But I found Kilrain just about as awkward and slow moving a fighter as ever had faced in all my career.
 In sizing up Kilrain I had attempted to figure out his weakness-and, his strength. Even before the first round opened, I had mapped out my pro- gramme of battle.
 As the first round began I rus he'd what looked like splendid opporthni- ty for landing his powerful right He sWung-and missed-perhaps by three rect. Four times in succession I feinted kilrain--and always successfully. Jake was falling into the trap.
 kiirafn figured I would continue to feint. And that was what I wanted him to believe. I knew that as soon as he decided I wasn't going to hit him that the moment had arrived to "croSS' him

Weekly Financial Review
By Associated Press

ENNNNN'@NNF
 New York, April 20-Further progress toward completion of the work of the peace conference and official announce ment of the terms and other details Of the Victory Loan were the governing fae- tors of another busy week in the securi .. ties market. Interest in these events was almost equally divided, but the coming loan campaign promises to obscure ali other considerations for the next fort night, it's paramount importance receiv- ing general recognition and support in the highest financial circles.
 The fact that daily operations on the ex- change again approached or exceeded one million shares conveyed the superficial impression of sustained strength, but ah- alysis of the dealings indicated an exten h. sive reduction of long contracts.
 In substance, the market evnced signs of an overbought or vulnerable condi- ton, it's tenuous position in this regard finding frequent express in the conflict ing movement of stocks of the same class or description.
 Much of the weeks S optimism was again furnished by interior or western traders. whose sentiment was largely inspired by the splendid crop prospects. Looal inter- ests inclined to further conservatism be- cause of the stalemate in steel indus try and unsatisfactory railroad condf- tions, as represented by the mounting cost of operations.
 Domestic business revival is proceeding steadily, as shown by greatly expanded bank clearings and freer offerings of money for commercial purposes. Ratifica- tion of the peace compact, it is generally believed, will give tremendous impetus to the countrys foreign trade and effect at least partial readjustment of existing aIl- omalous rates of exchange on London and continental Europe.
