Days Review of
the New York
Stock Market
[RepuhIlcan A. p. leased WIrel


NEW YORK. Feb. 15-The stock
market continued to move toward ir-
regular higher price levels today
although much of the advance was
forfeited in the general profit-taking
of the later dealings. Further low
ering of local money rates and signs
that world wide monetary conditions
are tending in the direction of great
er ease, together with the small
floating supply OF popular stocks
were the usstaining factors. Demand
loans opened at AZ per cent but fell
to per cent before noon. In private
transactions, plenty Of call money
was available at 31s per cent and
prime mercantile paper OF 30 to 90
days was sold at Az per cent. Re-
duction of the Cleveland federal re-
serve bank directed renewed atten-
tion to prospects of another reduc-
ton at this center. Private cables
from London predicted an early cut
in the Bank of England rate.
The greater part of today's fairly
large business was restricted TO
steels. oils, equipments, motors and
coppers, United States steel making
a new high since 1920. and retaining
all but the smallest fraction OF its
gain at 903s. Rails also showed fur
ther Improvement but buying Of
those issues lacked the substantial
character of the previous days accu-
mutation. Sales amounted to 100000
shares.
Trading in foreign exchanges fell
off perceptibly. the British and allied
reacting moderately. The
Dutch rate also eased but bills on
the Scandinavian countries continued
to strengthen with the eastern Euro
pean remittances.

From the Chicago
Board of Trade

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-New climbing
OF prices In the grain markets took
place here today notwithstanding
transient setbacks due to decline in
quotations at Liverpool. Estimates
which tended to confirm reports of
world wide scarcity of wheat had
much to do with the fresh ascent oil
values here. The Chicago wheat
market close was unsettled, l3s TO
CSC net higher with May at $1.4l 10
S1,41h and July $l.23A to $1.23 II.
Corn gained tx TO PA 0D23sc; oats /
to 1h@1%c and provisions TO 30c.
At first the dominating influence IN
the wheat pit was news OF drop
in British prices. General selling re-
suited and opinions were ventured In
some quarters that the recent ad-
vance on both sides of the Atlantic
had been overdone. After the Liver
pool market had closed for the day,
however, numerous unfavorable crop
advices which were current here be-
gan to attract more attention, ana
enlarged demand for flour acted as
a further stimulus to buyers OF wheat.
The upward swing which ensued
In the price OF wheat was accom-
panied by a decided broadening out
OF the volume of trading with many
dealers attaching special signifi-
canoe to an authoritative statement
that purported to show little If any
markin between wheat requirements
Of countries and the expected world
shipments this season. Talk OF new
export buying in progress was also
heard and despite heavy profit-tak- =
ing sales near the end of the session
the market finished but little under
the top prices reached. although May
had touched the highest point yet
since the present series of advances
began.
Active speculative demand gave in-
dependent strength at times TO corn
and oats. Both cereals scored new
high price records for the season.
Buyers took the position that ten
cents a bushcl advance for corn OF
late was inadequate after the corn
market had been going down for two
years.
The provision market was gov
erned chiefly yb fluctuations In the
value Of grain.

Lands Likes Idea
How Can They
Steal First Base?
TRenubIlcan a. p. Leased WIre1


CHICAGO Feb 15.-Speeding up
baseball by permitting batter TO
steal first base is a suggestion that
has Judge X Nj. Lands, baseball
commissioner, guessing today.
The commissioner received a letter
from Newton c Gillham. a Kansas
City, Mo, attorney in which he sug-
gests that the theft privilege of a
batter would offset the scientific
pitching" which. the attorney thinks.
slows up the game from a fans
viewpoint. The 'tins" and outs OF
the game are not balanced properly
according 10 Mr.. Gillham who be-
lieves that the scientific pitching
often makes an inning tame affair
with the batsmen being moved
down, one. two. three.
Let the batter steal first base,
wrote the Missouri lawyer, "and this
advantage of pitcher over a batter
will be equalized."
Mr.. Gillham says that the average
fan wants to see men running the
bases and change in the rules VIII
permit a fleet footed batter to pilfer
the initial sack. The double steal'
that occasionally thrills fans now
would be mild compared to the quad
ruple steal that might take place un-
der the rule change that Mr.. Gillham
suggests.
The letter to Commissioner Landis
in part follow:
Il have seen many criticisms of
baseball, and chief among them is
the fact that the ins' and outs of
baseball are not balanced evenly.
The outs always seem to have an
advantage over the ins'. To the
professional baseball man that may
be a good game but the thing the
average fan wants to see in a game
of baseball is men running the bases.
Now my suggestion to right this
condition is to allow the batter to
steal first base. / have made this
sugges' ion to professional baseball
men as well as to enthusiastic fans
and | have found none who offer a
reason for not allowing a batter to
steal first base"
Judge Lands and local baseball
men, however, are puzzled as to just
how a batter would be able to steal
first base with the pitcher having his
eye constantly on him.
Mr.. Gillham is clear in his state
ment that fans want to see men
running bases but his letter offered
no definite suggestion as to how base
running can be accelerated.

ALGER To.
TRAINING
THIS At FTERNOON
FOR KRAMER co

Billy Alger will resume boxing this
afternoon after a Today layoff
caused by an injured head. Billy has
been doing light gym and road work
daily but has avoided sparring in
order to give his head a chance to
heal. Now that he has been given a
clearance by the doctor he will go in
for real ring work to tougher him
self for Mondays bout with Jimmy
Kramer.
Alger will work this afternoon at
3 o'clock and Kramer will open the
day with a round of sparling at 2
p. m. The two weeks layoff gave
Billy a chance to rest and he should
be in much better shape Monday. Up
to the time he fought Chet Neff, Billy
had ben fighting every week for over
a month and coupled with heavy
training during the week he was al
most overworked. Now that he is
rested he will step faster and the
short vacation will not dim his range
When Alger returned to the ring after
his layoff following his bout with
White he was a new fighter and sur
prised his manager by the change.
The legion matchmaker is figur-
ing on a bout with Johnny Kid Mex
and winner of the Alger- Kramer
bout. Mex is a tough Colorado bat
tier and he will be a big drawing
card with the victor.
In the semi-final 10 the Alger-
Kramer bout the legion commander
is making an effort to sign Ralph
Pena and AL Mullenaux of Stafford
Pena Is back in shape and anxious
for a scrap. Mullenaux is the same
type of battler as Pena and can hit
- E..N
lenaux as well as Alger and he says
Mullenaux is a conner. He has six
straight knoclxouts to his credit, but
he does not want to leave the Gila
valley at this time. Carnes is trying
to get him down here for a couple
OF fights. II he succeeds in closing
the Pena- Mullenaux bout the fans
will see a good fight card Monday
night.
Jimmy Kramer is ready TO start
boxing today. He says he feels good
and is ready for another argument.
Jimmy showed Monday night that he
can hit and he is going to try and
outslug Alger in the main event. If
Jimmy can stand up and slug Alger
and get away with it he is a real
gladiator.
The curtain raiser and preliminary
nave not been closed, DuL VIII DC
ready to announce this evening.
Jimmy Douglas will probably be one
of the opening numbers with a good
husky opponent. Sailor Dannie Burns
of Prescott has issued a challenge to
meet the winner of the Alger- Kramer
bout and he has been offered a pre-
liminary bout on Mondays card to
see what he can do before giving
him a main bout.
An effort was made to get Jack
Lynch and Jack Regan in the ring
for the semi final, but Regan was
called TO Long Beach and viii not re-
turn in time for Mondays card. There
are several good local boys anxious
for a tryout in the preliminary class
and some OF them will show today.
Seats for the Coliseum boxing card
will be on sale at Eddie Doyle's cigar
