FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS LIVELY.

New York, April 1o.-The most sig
nificant feature of today's very lively
stock market, as indicating its ex-
tremely speculative character, was
the free buying of United States Steel
at an extreme advance Of 2 IA points
and the abrupt reversal of the last
hour, when realizing for profits eff
faced most gains and left many net
losses.
Steers rise was the more surprising
since it followed the publication of the
March tonnage figures disclosing an
other large decrease in untitled or
ders, drawing the total down to the
lowest level in over three years.
The maximum of 100 ga for U. S.
Steel represented the years best
price, but all this and a small frac-
ton was forfeited at the close. when
reactions among other leaders ranged
from two to five points.
In other respects the market dis
played none of its recent extravagant
aspects, further substantial but tenn
porary advances in motors and ship
pings providing the chief diversion of
the early and intermediate session.
Chandler Motors rose an additional

utilities retained part of their two to

Rails lapsed after occasional frac-

reactionary, losing one TO three points.

MAY BAR GERMANS
FROM EVERY SPORT

Following the lead of the gov
erning body for lawn tennis in Great
Britain, the Amateur Athletic Asso-
citation of the country is contem-
plating the advisa bility of drafting
rules between Britains and Germans
or Austrians. Such action which
according TO authoritative statements
from London. seems bound to be talk
en- before many weeks have passed,
VIII virtually put to end any Olym-
pic meet as such next year. The
French Olympic committee has al
ready ruled against competition with
Germans or athletes of other enemy
countries. and its difficult to see how
the Amateur Athletic union of the
United States can fail to adopt 4
similar attitude. From being an
Olympic meet in the true sense of
the term, the games proposed. TO be
held in Antwerp next year would be
nothing more than an inter-allied
meet. with a few neutral countries
taking part in the competition. in
stead of an Olympic carnival of
sports.
The action OF the British govern
ing body was to be expected in view
OF the drastic rules adopted by the
lawn tennis organization, which not
only prohibits Germans from play
ing in matches conducted under its
auspices. but also bars Britons from
taking part in any competition which
Germans or players from enemy
countyies or participants. That this
attitude has found support in the
United States is shown by the fact
that the executive committee of the
nited Statesfi Lawn Tennis ossoci-
alton looks with favor upon it, and IS
likely to adopt a similar ruling for
American lawn tennis players.

Springfield, Mass, April 1O.-The di-

buy release of that club as certain

NO SCARS TO MAR
WILLARD Or DEMPSEY

Although neither Jess Willard nor
his challenger, Jack Dempstey, is a
Jim Corbett for clevernnss, both have
come through then battles in the
ring without a scar. Dempsey has
not suffered so much as nosebleed
in his half dozen bouts. The chal-
Hengnrs ears are in as perfect condi-
ton as they were before he ever
donned a pair of gloves, his nose is
straight and there is q total absence
of any mark that would indicate that
ha is a lighting man.
Wizards record in escaping-or
shedding punishment-is even more
remarkable. The big fellow boasts
that he never had black eye nevar
was knocked down and never was
sroggy from the effect of a blow.
That would seem to indicate that
Dempsey is going to have hard
time making any impression on the
giant champion. However, it is a
strange fact that the lightest man
