S ——— MISKE POUNDS MORRIS St, Paul Boy Gives Away Fifty Pounds ‘Weight But Speed Advantage, Overcomeg This. New York, Sept. 29.—Billy Miske, glving away a full fifty pounds, fought a sensational ten-round battle against Carl Morris at the Harlem Sporting club last night. The light-heavy- weights had the better of every round except the third, which was even. In the fifth and seventh rounds Miske crossed Morris with terrific rights to the jaw as the giant came lumbering in. Carl's knees sagged under the impact of the blows. Kid McPartland, the referee, worked fully as hard as the principals, and he drew cheers from the crowd as he tore the men apart in the clinches. Miske asked no odds from his big foeman, and when Morris started to rough it in the clinches Billy came right back at him, fighting off the Sa- pulpa’ mammoth. Only Carl's great strength and bulk stopped him from ‘going down under Miske's pile driving rights and lefts t6 the jaw and body. Morris helied on upper cutting when in clinches and rarely landed a clean blow. Miske hurt his left hand early in the ninth round, but even so he held Morris relied on upper cutting when one of the best exhibitions the St. Paul man has put up in this city. The weights were: Miske, 178; Morris, 228 pounds. SECRET PRACTIOCE BARRED. Football Bogie for Years at Harvard Eliminated by Freshmen. Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 29.—Secret practice, the one big bogie of under- graduate Harvard, has passed tem- porarily out of existence with the knell of 'varsity football. Daily work Lehind closed gates, which usually starts the first week in October and continues until the final week of the season, will have no place in fresh- man football, which is being played at Harvard this fall. Freshman football. now has the stage on Soldiers! Field. A squad of seventy men are hard at practice un- der Head Coach Donald J, Wallace. With big time football shelved, it is expected that the alumni at Harvard, Princeton and Yale will transfer their interest and affection to their baby class teams and everything to make this likely is being done at all three colleges.

BEECHAM’S PILLS Largest Sale of Any Medicine in the Werld, Seld everywhere. In bexes, 10c., 25¢. NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, Heniy Clews’ Weekly Letter § (Special to the Herald) New York, Sept. 29—The money po- sition hag been responsible for the re- actionary trend which developed with some degree of force in the market for securities this *week. Despite ef- Yorts to keep the banking situation under control, supplies of funds were offered sparingly, resulting in fears that the large sustained demand for capital by the Government will pre- vent any early return to normal con- ditions. The approach of a large new offering of Government bonds with the books open for 3 weeks means a sustained demand for funds. Mean- while the Treasury is continuing its advances to our Allies. Secretary Mc- Adoo is called upon also to draw down Treasury deposits in the banks of the country in order to provide for these advances and to meet the huge ex- penditures that are of daily occur- ence. While it is true that all these funds are being spent in our own country, the various shifting opera- tlons are unsettling. The Treasury through the Federal Reserve banks will surely prevent the money situa- tion getting beyond control. Nevthe- less, it is obvious that we are ap- proaching a point where important de- mands may be expected. There appears slight reason to ap- prehend that banking and other large financial interests will abandon their recent view that the success of the new Government bond offering requires that investment conditions as a whole must be maintained in such condition as to create a favorng fingnclal at- mosphere during the period of mar- keting the new Government issue. It is significant that the 313 per cent. Liberty bonds, which were sold in June, should command a small pre- mium at a time when 4 per cents are to be offered in large amounts at par. Of course, the privilege of conversion into the new 4 per cents places them, so far as people with moderate in- comes are concerned, upon a more at- tractive basis. It is doubtful, however, whether there will be any widespread movement among the larger holders to transfer them into the new securi- ties that are about to be offered, since .| they would then lose a very valuable tax exempt privilege. I refer to their tax free privilege as regards the large surtaxes on incomes céntained in the new War Revenue bill which is soon to receive the signature of the Presi- dent. It is rather difficult to reach a sat- isfying conclusion as to the real in- fluence on the market for securities of the announcement by the govern- ment of the iron and steel prices that were made public on Monday of this week. The new flgures are the result of an agreement between our government and represntatives of our steel manufacturers. The prices when compared with those recently current represent, it is true, very substantial reductions, as, for instance, a decline from $58 per ton to $33 for pig iron, from $5.50 to $2.90 per cwt. for steel bars, from $6 to $3 per cwt. for shapes and from $11 to $3.25 per cwt. for plates. But all these new prices are far above the quotations current before the war, when, for in- stance, pig iron instead of being $33 was $14 and coke was $3.32 per ton instead of $6. Steel bars were $23 instead of $68 per ton, plates $22.80 instead of $65 and shapes $23.20 in- stead of $60. At first a report was published that the new figures would apply to all the old contracts upon which deliv- eries had not been made by the man- ufacturers, a feature that would have meant a severe cut in anticipated profits. Later advices from Washing- ton, however, explained that while it was intended that the new scale of prices should apply to all business for domestic as well as government ac- count it wasnot the intention to in- terfere with non-governmental con- tracts already placed. However, some of these contracts are understood to contain clauses protecting the buyer in the event of price reduction; they necessarily will be reduced auto- matically to the new level. Now that the prices have been defi- nitely fixed it is possible that there may be a revival of business in the direction of domestic orders. Re- cently business of this character not unnaturally has been restrained be- cause of the expectation that a sub- stantial reduction would become available in the price. In these cir- cumstances it would have been un- wise to have proceeded with large purchases for construction or other work. The new quotations cannot fail to leave their imprint in form of re- duced earnings of some of our large industrial plants. But there is ample leeway for such reduction when the extent of the former prices is consid- ered. Under the new conditions, ac- cording to the agreement between the government and manufacturers, there is to be no reduction in the wage scales of labor. Last week for the fifth time since the war started the United States Steel Corporation ad- vanced wages 10 per cent. and other large manufacturers soon followed. The high wages that are current throughout the country represent a buying power for our country that never before has been equalled. Our agricultural interests are in at least an equal position as to prosperity, which means, of course, a continued demand by consumers at home for luxuries as .well'as necessities during the period of the war. Congress is soon to adjourn, and for the time being the fill burden that the war is to imposge in the form of taxation will be known. The effects of tax legislation may then in a meas- ure be regarded as having been dis- counted. It is beginning to look as though some of the most radical proposals affecting taxation and ex- cess profits will not be carried through. The week’s advices from abroad clearly suggest that the question of peace is assuming more of a practical and less of a superficial form. Ger- many, in a supplemental note to Rome, has suggested the restoration of Belgium on tertain conditions, which are, of course, unacceptable. The Kalser suggests that payment shall be made by the Central Powers for part of the “war damage.” This offer is not so important in itself. But it is an indication of a movement to prepare his own people for the in- evitable. Not very long ago the mere suggestion to withdraw from Belgium would have been assailed with severe | criticism from military supporters throughout Germany, but the current offer seems hardly to have attracted ‘widespread attention. But one by one these little evidences are creeping out, showing that the subject of peace is being systematically worked out. By | spring our own country will have an army abroad capable of striking in most decisive manner—an army com- posed of men fresh and fit in body and spirit, well equipped and eager to do their full part in the struggle for democracy. Opposed to them will be armies worn out by more than three years of service with equipment that has necessarily depreciated, with poorly fed troops who know that their families are in want and in misery. The Kaiser and his advisers know as well as they know anything that these are conditions which they cannot suc- cessfully meet. It seems quite fair to believe that as intelligent men they will leave no stone unturned to pre- vent an issue that can have but one result. We are approaching fairly close to the termination of the 1917 campaign. The British and French and Italian troops may be expected to continue even after the winter sets in their work of attrition, which will wear down the enemy and make the Entente forces, as reinforced by our strong and vigorous American army, ready for a final attack in the spring. This will occur unless the Kaiser in the meantime shall recognize the fu- tility of keeping up the unequal fight, when his submarine and other forms of frightfulness, which he has so con- fidently relied upon, have been fully tried and found wanting.
