1919. The livestock producers of South | America, Australia, South Africa, and India, who have developed the habit of pushing up the prices of hides, whether of cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, or kangaroos, have continued the advance which characterized the1 entire war period, and the average
 price which American importers must
 now pay in the country of production
 is 50 per cent higher than on the day
 on which the whole world was cele-
 brating the return to peace.
 The figures, based upon official data, says a statement by The National City
 Bank of New York, illustrate the diff faculties under which the manufactur- CTS of the United States. dependent
 upon foreign as well as domestic pro- ducts for their material, have labored
 in their attempts to reduce the high prices which existed at the close of the war. In fact, they have found in practically every important article, abroad as well as at home, the prices not only refusing to come down" but actually advancing since the termina- 1 tion of the war. The average import i price of raw silS, for example, brought into the country in November 1919 | was, as. shown by official figures of the Government, s9.1O per pound as 1 against S6.09 in November 1918 at the termination of the war, and $3.09 in
 the first year of the war, and yet the quantity imported in 1919 {. is greater than ever before and nearly twice as much as in the pre-war year. Goat
 skins imported of which the price in |! the countries of production. chiefly
 Latin America, China, India, North
 Africa, and Europe, averaged 26c a | pound in the year before the war, ad-
 vancing to an average of 54c a pound
 in November 1918, and an average of S2c pound in November 1919, the in-
 crease in price per pound in the one year following the war being actually greater than that of the entire war
 period of practically five years. HemI
 of which the import value, based upon
 cost in the country of production
 averaged 3177 a ton in the year i'm mediately preceding the war, stood
 at $S72 ton in November 1918, ant

Ringside, Coliseum, Toledo, Ohio, March 12-Jimmy Wilde of England, recognized flyweight boxing champion of the world, proved his right to the title tonight by decisively outpointing Frankie Mason, of Fort Wayne, Ind, the American claimant of the title.
 Although no referees decision was given. the majority of sporting writers agreed that Jimmy Wilde, recognized champion of Great Britain, proved his right to worldwide supremacy in this class in a twelve round bout here to- night when he decisively outpointed Frankie Mason of Fort Wayne, Ind, aspirant to the championship.
 Wilde was the aggressor throughout the fight with the exception of the fifth round, when Mason braced him self and put the Englishman on the de- fensive. Two of the rounds were even, the fourth and tenth.
 The ring, which was 21 feet square gave the little American plenty room 10 jump away from the pressing Brit isher.
 Mason. started to bleed from the mouth early in the battle but he wore s smile of confidence while the little Briton. from the time he entered the ring seemed set and determined.
 Time after time. Mason when urged on by his enthusiasts, attempted to break through the Britisher's guard but the plucky little Briton lodged teinted. shifted and retaliated with a right and left, chasing the American about the ring.
 After the fight Referee Ed Smith declared never in his life had he seen any fighter who was sd willing to carry or mix mitters as Wilde. Smith was of the opinion that it was a very even match. but declared on the rules of the commission he was not at lib sTty to announce he winner.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKEr WAs IRREeuLAR

New York, March 12-International credits and an expected furry in call money were the dominant factors of today's very irregular stock market, In which the early trading was en- livened by further operations of bull pools.
 Foreign exchange manifested a re- actionary trend from the outset, the British rate adding six cents to yes terday's late reversal on specific de- niaIs of reports that the gild move ment from London to this country vas already in progress.
 Calf money opened at per cent, thereby raising the hopes of those who were apprehensive that current heavy tax payments would create stringent conditions over the week end.
 These hopes were dashed later, when the rate rose steadily to IS per cent, that quotation prevailing at the heavy close.
 The bulk of today's dealings cent cred again ia motors and their sub salaries also oils. equipments and rails. Extreme advances of to 10 points hi these issues were finally re- 1uced or altogether dissipated, heavy selling attending the movements 0: tuOufy.
 Conspicuous features. of the early advance and subsequent decline were General Motors. in which a 10 point gain was folliwed by Is 1-2 point reaction, involving a net loss of If points and Crucible Steel, which for leited a substantial gain and more besides.
 Among other industrials and spec- lalties the swing from high to low ranged from two to six points, losses of one to three points prevailing, al the end. when the transportations also yielded. Sales amounted to l.. o5e,000 shares.
 Tn the bond market irregularity featured the trading in foreign is sues. the Liberty group showing com. parative steadiness. Changes among domestic rails and industrials were nominal on smaller offerings. Tota sales, par value. aggregated s11,750,. 900. Old U. s. bonds were unchang. ed on call.

FOREIGN PRICES
 ADVANCE SINCE PEACE

United States manufacturers are get ting no encourag ement from abroad in attempts to reduce the cost of their products. In fact, the first anniversary of the Armistice showed that the prices of the raw materials which they are compelled to bring from other parts of the world keep on advancing with out the slightest reference to the ces- sation of hostilities.
 The Egyptian cotton grower, for ex- ample, who had seen. his export prices of raw cotton increase nearly 100 per cent during the war period, could not be persuaded that he ought to reduce his price merely because the guns had ceased to roar, and he continued the boosting process which had character ized the war period with the result that American importers of Egyptian cotton are now paying nearly 50 per cent more for that necessity of manu- facture than at the close of the war. The jute growers of India are also demanding and receiving today an advance of more than 50 per cent on their prices at the close of the war Producers of goatskins in Latin Am erica, China, India, North Africa, and Southern Europe, not content with ar increase of 100 per cent during the war period, insisted upon a still furth- CT advance in celebration of universa peace, and were in November 1919 de- I manding and getting 50 per cent more ] than at the termination of hostilit;e! in 1918, and the quantity brought int the United States goes on increasing l irrespective of the advance in price Raw silk producers on the other sid l of the globe, far distant from tn scenes of hostilities, were not satis
