BATTLE OF SANTIAGO

This is the twenty second anniver. sary of the naval battle of Santiago in which the Spanish fleet was dis troyed by an American squadron off the coast of Cuba. After bottling up the Spanish fleet in the harbor of Santiago, Admiral Samson, the Amer. ican commander settled down to await developments. To make it impossible for the Spaniards to escape Hobson sank the old steamer "Merrimac" in the channel but inasmuch as it failed to entirely block the way, the attempt was a failure. For some time the Spanish warships lay in the harbor protected by the guns of their forts and then on a certain Sunday morn- Ing they attelnped to make a run for 1t. Led by Admiral Cerveras flag ship, the Viscaya, the fleet dashed for the sea. The watching American fleet were not taken by surprise and it gave chase. A running fight en- sued during which the entire Spanisl, fleet was sunk. Four fine cruiser; and a number of torpedo boats and .destroyers was Spain's loss in this na. val action and it was blow that crippled her sea power.

sues partly because of the possibility
 that they may be able to refund their funded debt on a lower interest basis sometime in the future, and partly to preserve a flexible corporate struc- ture so as to facilitate consolidation, etc.
 Perhaps consideration may be given to convertible bonds most appropri- ately at this point. Convertible bonds are those to which has been given the privilege of conversion into some junior security-usually the stock of the issuing corporation. The con- version privilege is not infrequently good only during a part of the life of the bond. The possibility of speculative gain is the added attract tion offered to investors through con-
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-07-03

vertible issues. Advantage accrues to a corporation which has an issue, of bonds converted into stock in that its bonded debt and fixed charges are thereby reduced. Debenture issues often are made convertible.
 Our fourth general classification has for it's basis considerations relat- ing to the payment of interest. On most bonds, the payment of interest is unconditionable, i. e., if any inter est insta1lment is not paid, the> issue goes into default.
 In the case of income bonds, how ever, interest does not have to be paid if it is not earned by the obli- gor. Usually it is provided that if any substantial part of the interest on an income bond issue is earned in
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-07-03

bonds are a less important class; while perpetual bonds are almost un- known. In foreign countries, however government bonds are frequently per- petual. The principal of serial ma turity is most often made use of ii connection with equipment trust is sues.
 It is provided in many cases that bonds may be paid before maturity at the option of the obiigor; in other words, the bonds are made redeem able'' or "callable'. Usually the right of redemption may be exercised by the payment of a premium above par, but this is not always true for municipal issues are commonly re- deemable at par. Corporations place redemption features in their bond is-

any year, 1t must be paid. If all un- paid interest on an issue is made payable out of the earnings of fu- ture years, the issue is cumulative; !; if not, it is non-cumulative. Income bonds are largely a product of reor- ganizations, resulting from the neces- sity of reducing fixed interest charges for the reorganized corporations.
 A fifth classification of bonds may be made from the standpoint of meth ods of transfer.N On this basis there are three classes, coupon bonds, reg istered bonds, and coupon bonds reg istered as to principal. Coupon bonds are payable to bearer and are trans ferab1e by mere physical delivery. This class. of bonds derives its name from the attached coupons, which are in effect series of promissory notes one maturing on each interest date. Interest Is collected by detach- ing the coupons and sending them to the obligor or its interest-paying agent.
 The ownership of registered bonds is evidenced. by registration in the transfer office of the obligor; trans fer of title Is accomplished only by endorsement on the back of the bond. Holders of registered bonds receive their interest in the form of checks from the ob1igor.
 Coupon bonds registered as to prin- ciplal are, as the name implies, bondt which although registered as far ;is principal is concerned, have coupons attached which pass by delivery anG are payable to bearer. The mortgage under which bonds are issued specifics what classes are to be issued, and whether or not ths various classe are to be interchange. able. This information is usually

| The new middle weight champion
Johnny Wilson.
Ten years ago he was a poor kid in
Harlem, a gang fighter. unafraid of
knives n guns and clubs.
Today he is 81 years old. wearing g.
world title and is In line to make a
barrel of dough.
Looking him over you can see he
has the face of a born fighter. His eyes
lare as black as his long straight hair,
cheek bones prominent and protrud-
ing and q nose of Hebraic cast.
His parents are Italian and now re-
side in Harlem. where Johnny was
born in q little house just a few doors
from the modest home that first hous-
ed Willie Jackson. Johnny was chris
tened Giovanni Panica. He Is the Sec
lond Italian to hold a world crown.
Pete Herman. bantam champ, is the
other.
Johnny goes to bat like Babe Ruth
that is Northumberland hits the
same way. Around New York. where
he started eight years ago, they knew
him as a weak hitter. He went out
of town and got a punch.
Oddly enough, Mike ODowd won
the championship in a Brooklyn ring
in 1917 from Al Mccoy. a %southpaw
hitter. Mike had no difficulty in solv-
ing McCoy's awkward pose. but
Johnny's was different.
Being a portsider, Wilson has a Pc
lculiar style when in action. He is
clever with his dukes. fast on his feet
and can drop any opponent with
whom he can connect. His wallop is
in his left, but there is power In his
right. He resembles Lew Tender,
crack Philadelphia lightweight, an
other southpaw headed for a world
title.
O'Dowd was unknown until he
,kayoed Mccoy. That punch gave him
the confidence and he stayed put as a
champion for three years.
Wilson knocked O'Dowd off his feet
in the second round of their champ
lionship battle and the confidence 1t
gave him kept him in the lead until
Referee Hector Mc1nnis raised his
hand.
For the past six years he has lived
n Boston. Three years & he married
q Boston girl.
He says he'll give O'Dowd another
crack at the title soon. OF course it Is
