The admiral told the committee tina,
Sims viewpoint of American naval

allies.
Admiral Sims gave undue Importance
to the convoy system. the admiral
said.
Although the Navy Department about
the time the armistce was signed

Sims never made any report to the

With only three games to roll. the Red Tops have the Palace league championship tucked safely under their belts with no possible chance of losing. They have rolled a consistent game all through the season and have hit pins enough to give them a com fortable lead. Ns
 The fight of the tournament has been between the Gas Burners and the Red Sox, both tying for second place at the end of the tournament on Wednesday night The Red Sox took two from the Yannigans while the Gas Burners took three from Norwich Woolen. It was decided after the game to immediately roll off the tie. The Red Sox took the first game in the roll-off by large margin while the Gas Burners took the second game by about the same margin, The final string was battle from start to fin- ish. Peckham at the end of his string with the Gas Burners led his man IS pins. McKeley, rolling with the Red Sox, picked up this lead and put his team one pin in the lead. Dunn again put his team in the lead by picking up 30 pins on his man, and then Bol- ton, rolling with the Red Sox, re-
 duced this to Spin lead. The battle
 then lay between Murphy of the Red | Sox and Austin of the Gas Burners.
 Austin rolling in top form hit the ma
 pie for 125 while Murphy fell down, | getting only 105, losing the game for
 his team.
 | The result of the roll-off landed the
 Gas Burners in second place and the
 Red Sox in third. The scores follow:

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS BROAD

New York April 14.-BaSingi their calculations largely on the more en- couraging aspects of the railroad strike, pools continued to press the advantage Tn the stock market today, many issues making substantial ac- sessions to recent gains.
 The market derived some of it's in creased momentum, however, from outside of public participation, com mission houses with connections at interior centers reporting a pronounc- ed revival of interest at midwest ern points.
 Trading was broader and more ac- tive than in the preceding days of the week, but very large proportion of the turnover again comprised the leading oil, steel, equipment, motor and food or sugar shares.
 Stock dividends, actual and pro- spective, IS represented by American Tobacco, Woolworth and Union Bag and Paper, helped to sustain the ad- vance, particularly among specialties, ip which gains extended from to almost 15 points.
 In several noteworthy instances higest quotations of the day were | made toward the close, although re- alizing for profits elsewhere was ap- | parent, especially among steels, equip ments and shippings. Sales amounted to 1,275,0o0 shares.
 The money market ollowed its course of recent days, call loans open 1 ing at per cent, but advancing bS easy stages to F per cent. at the end. Quotations for time money were unchanged and few loans ex. cept for short dates were made.
 Steadier conditions prevailed in tn, 1 foreign exchange market. Advice from London indicating an early ris, rate occasioned no surprise, in view O in the Bank of England discoun the recent advance of the Frencl rate.

STOCK EXCHANGE DIFFERS
 ACTION ON RYAN RESIGNATION

| New York, April 1.-The board of governors oI the New ! ork stock ex- cnange late today adopted resolution ! postpomng action o4l the resignation I or Allan A. Ryan until invesugauon l into trading in Stutz Motor Car com 1 pany stock is competed.
 The governors, however. acqulesced to request made today by MT. hyan | as chairman or the SIutz company s ] pdard or directors that the stock De removed from the exchange list at 1 once.
 It was pointed out by an official of ! the exchange that the removal of Stutz snares from the list lifted the l ban against general trading in that i stock and that dealings may hereafter | be made i'll the open or outside mar ! ket.
 In connection with the complications arising from the differences between MT. kyan and the stock exchange, an effort was made at today's meeting of l the governors to commit the exchange l to an amendment covering any at tempt to corner" a stock. After much ] discussion, adoption of the amend i ment was postponed.
 ] Other developments in the Stutz l controversy during the day included a denial from several stock exchange firms and individuals that they were parties to an attempt, to depress the stock and a reiteration by :Mr. Ryan of his statement that an impartial in- vestiga ton of the situation would prove the truth of his allegations in that respect.
 Several odd lots of Stutz Motor shares were sold at public auction today, all fetching $700 per share, as against last weeks auction price of s701 and s31, the price at which the stock closed when it was suspended from the exchange two weeks ago to- day,
 When informed of the action of the stock exchange authorities MT. Ryan made the following statement.
 q am gratified that the board o1 governors of the New York stock ex- change has promptly acceded to- the request of the Stutz Motor Company of America that its shares be remov- ed from the New York Stock EX- change list. As result, the stock exchanges jurisdiction over these l shares ceases and there will be a return at once of a market that ha! been arbitrarily denied to the seock' holders since Mach 31st, last.
 q was also pleas to note that thi president of the New York stock ex change, in his statement this morn ing, had expressly recognized tn
 sanctity and inviolability of stock exchange contracts upon which hav
 stood and will continue to stand.
