Hawaiians the Sensation of Harvard’s Athletic World—Three More 'c?min.- Cambridge, Dec, 23.—Paul and Lo- throp Withington are today the men most in the public eye among the un- dergraduates at Harvard. Their ath- letie ability has won them secure in the memory of every Harvard man, and has made them the best. known students in the university to the world large. Never before in the history of ath- letics at Harvard have two brothers won in one year two 'varsity letters. The list of men entitled to wear the “H” in any of the major sports is a small one, and the possession of a Crimson sweater won on a ‘varsity team is sufficient to give its owner distinction among his college mates. That there are few men capable of earning their letter in football and on the river goes without saying, and that is what the Withingtons have done this year. Such a record, unparalleled in ‘col- lege history, is wonderful ,enough in itself. But when it is conéidered that the younger of the two brothers, Lo- throp Withington, Jr., became a mem- ber of the 'varsity football squad late in the season, after severgl weeks of practice, and, although comparatively inexperienced in the game, made good from the start, and was only last week elected captain of the team for next year over the heads of five other men, 1l of whom have had more experience at the game, it must be conceded that FINANCIAL AND COMMERGIAL. to preliminary estimates by the banks themselves. In spite of the gold outgo to South America and the ruling rate of New York exchange at Chicago at par or under, an increase of $2,500,000 in cash holdings is computed. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $3,087,000. United States bonds- were ed on call and unresponsive. | ERRERRRRE FEE Eia S i Fasitusbesks| 5 :Eslgsgl L - £ S SEE. 383 problaimatical and the advantage at 000 that pnd at subsequent periods eof transiprming the second preferred stock | is perceptible. Moreover, the ecomp<imy has the alternative right to retire| either the first or the second g;nter stock at par for cash. The 1di of the Lake Shore and the Baltin and Ohilo in the company, by wljich control {8 exercised, are larger 4n the preferred stocks than in the common. Consideration of these facts axroused suspicion of the genuin ness oj! the movement, though the buy- ing wijs ascribed to the bankers who have c parge of the company’s finances, Almost! equal obscurity surrounded the volatiles rise In Rock Island. The fail- ure of the preferred stock to share in the moyvement increased the suspicion felt tovpards it. Banking houses with Europedin connections were prominent in the q%emtlom in the stock and this buying:was reported to be the sequence of the pmrchase of heavy calls for fu- ture dellivery from German stockheld. ers. It \is customary for forelgm sell- ers of sych calls to cover a pant of their req'uirement at the time of mak- ing the fale as a safeguard. Old re- of |the intention of the control- ing inter, in the company to allot full votinlg' rights to the common stock were rev/ived. Under the present or- ganizations the preferred stock elects a majority Jof the directors and the com- mon only & minority. The rise in Wabash jyreferred was connected with the Rock Island movement in the day’'s conjecturds. The demand was alleged to come [from’ Rock Island interests and this renewed the surmises of a coming cture of Rock Island and Lehigh Va(ley through the medium of the Wabagwh. The early strength in Pennsylvapia was due to the divi- dends_of 0 of its subsidiary compa- nies. The | preparations, for the year— end money| requirements kept tife call loan markeg stiff and had a restrain- ing effect oE the speculation. The call loan rate /rianged, from five and one- balf per cent. upwards, keeping alive the supposiflion that flurries might oc- cur before ‘the end of the year. The Bank of Enlgland return was weak in spite of €ab.led reports of renewed ad- vanves of g@ld to the London market by the Banlg of France. The French bank’s $5,67:4000 decline in gold hold- ings was thigs explained. London dis- count rates, Mowever, declined and for- eign exchangpe rates here were weak.

Llll(lehhtis elder brothers, h 18 an accomplished o SW mee and wrestler, and m‘wn{e credited with being one of the fastest baseball players in the islands. When, after he haa® eftcircled the earth to reach New Londen, Lothrop ‘Withington, Sr., saw two of his sons cross the finish line in the victorfous Harvard shell, one of his friends, a Yale graduate, congratulated him and spoke in glowing terms of the athletic égfll!y <f th etwo young men. “Yes,” plied the elder Withington, “Paul is a pretty good swimmer and something of an oarsman. Lothrop can pull a little in a shell, too. But there’s an- other boy coming to Harvard before long, and two more after him. Watch them; they grow better right along.” ‘When the Yale man heard these words, spoken with apparently the most seri- ous afr, it is likely that he offered up a silent prayer for Yale. Frederick Withington, who is now 17 years old, David, aged 10, and De- net, 9, are the three members of the Withington gamily who are due to make names Jfor themselves when they enter Harvafd. Frederick Withington is almost ready for college now, but the two youngest brothers have many vears ahead of them before they can represent the Crimson. ‘The rise of Paul and Lothrop With- ington to the positions they occupy in Harvard athletics has been rapid. Paul Withington will finish his work at the university in February, thus com- pleting the course in three and one- half years. Lothrop is likely to equal this record, for besides being two of the strongest men physically at Har- vard they are among the leaders in the academic work at the university. Paul Withington is 21 years old, six feet one inch tall and weighs 190 pounds. - His brother is slightly small- er, but both are giants. Lothrop is six feet tall and weighs 188 pounds. He is 20 years old. 2 INVITED TO PRESIDENCY. Central Kansas L. guT Wants Frank Isbell—Will Accept if Terms Are Right. ‘Wichita, Kansas, Dec, 23.—Frank Is- bell of the Chicago American league team has been asked by the stockhold- ers of the Central Kansas baseball league to accept the presidency of the organization. He has replied that if satisfactoty terms can be made he will accept, Isbell said that if he did not take the place he would remain with the Wichita Western league team as manager and would play with the team. He anticipates no trouble in ob- taining, his reléase from the Chicago Americans. Yale Leads in Chéss.

To my mind, the best fight T ever was against Bob Fitzsimmons, on June 9, 1899, when I out in eleven rounds at the Coney Athletic club and became cham- m of the world, says James J. Jef- in a ‘western sporting sheet. Previous to this fight I had met Bob Armstrong, the gilant negro, in the east, and d been criticised because I did not knock him out in a hurry. I trained for ‘the battle with Fitzsimmons T determined to go into the ring faster and better than I had ever been in my Hfe, so I could do myself justice. T bad never been in perfect shape, as 1 had carrled too much weight. e ‘When I faced Fitzsimmons I believe ;o.mfbl in lh%‘b‘;; c:;‘l’dluuz I could ly reacl r rty days o vious to the fight I did not drln‘l‘(ul drop of water, so anxiqus was I to ‘take off weight. When my throat be- came parched I simply gargled, The conditions under which I fought were discouraging., I felt that some of my backers did 'not think I could defedt the champion, and incidents of my training had been discouraging. As a matter of fact, howevyer, I regard my battle with Fitzsimm as one of the easiest of my career. At the end I was not even breathing deeply. The impression has prevailed in the minds of some that my stomach was vulnerable, but if this was true, that blow Fitzsimmons landed under my heart in the fourth round would have shown the weakness, It was a right hand blow, delivered with every ounce of strength Fitzsimmons possessed, but :ncun honestly say it did not bother e, Only once during the fight did Fitz- simmons hurt me and that was when he split my eyelid. His body blows did not hurt a bit. I think, however, those who -witnessed that fight real- ized I could take punishment, for Fitz hit me ' hard and often, and he could hit as hard as any man‘in the ring at that time. \ I outgeneraled Fitesimmons in this battle by forcing him to lead. His strong hold has always been counter- ing, but as I kept after him continu- ally, he had to lead or back away, and when thus fore he was nonplused. I knocked Fitzsimmons down in the second round with a straight left to the mouth and he actually looked sur- prised. He did his best work in the fifth round and shot his bolt, for his heaviest blows failed to prove as ef- fective as they had against other men. In the elxmg round, after I had knocked him down, Fitzsimmons came up looking scared. He realized then, I think, for the first time, that he was a beaten man. I knocked him out n the eleventh with a right hand swing to_the chin. 7 I went into that fight a Tank out- sider and when it was over was cham- plon of the world, a title I have held to this' day untarnished and which I will continue to hold thus until T aga'n retire, this time forever, from the ring. TWO GREAT SWEDISH RUNNERS Johansen and Ljungstrom Come to America in Search of Cash. Thure Johansen and Gust Ljung- strom are the names of ‘two great Swedish athletes who have recently come to this coun These two fly- ers. from the firths and fjords of-Swe- den_prom: to cut a wide swath in professional running-circles. Both are amateurs, but announce that they are through with the chase for medals and are hot on the trail of the Yankee dollar. Johansen has made the best record of the pair, He is a cracker- jack at all distances from 15 miles up and has knocked the props from un- der most of Svanberg’s Swedish ama- teur figures. Last May in Stockholm Johansen stepped 17 miles 547 meters in 1.36.25, smashing Svanberg’'s record for the distance by more than a minute and a half, The next day Johansen went out and turned 2§ miles in the crack- ing time of 2.36.00. His best record for 25 miles is 2.31.12. He hung up those figures in Goteborg, Sweden, on September 6. He won the Stockholm Marathon last summer from a great flield of Swedish and English runners in the fine time of 2.40.34. He is a cool and heady runner and comes here with a great reputation for fairness and good sportsmanship. He is slight, though sturdily built, and, like Ljung- strom, with his blonde hair, blue eyes, and healthy complexion, looks the typical northman. Ljungstrom is the present cross- country champion of Sweden. He is short and stocky and has a splendid physique. He easily bested Petersen, who took the great Deakin of the Herne Hill Harriers of England into camp in the distarice races at the in- | ternational meet in Stockholm last year. Ljungstrom trimmed Petersen in all the'races In which the pair have met since the international meet. Ljungstrom has run ten miles in the good time of 53.29, and turned six miles, 346 meters, in 32.03. Most of his races have been run over hill and dale, however, Both Swedish runners will be trained and handled by Ernie Hertberg. Hertberg probably is the best trainer~of distance men in ‘the | world. DOLLY GRAY'S HARD LUCK. Pitched No-Hit Game, Really, but Passed Eight Men in One Inning. Speaking of the uncertainties which make baseball, a fanning bee the other day produced “the following hard-luck story on Dolly Gray, the southpaw of the Washington team last summer: On August 27, Gray opposed the White Sox.at- Chicago; and In many .ways pitched a wonderful game. The -| scorers gave Pat Dougherty a hit on a drive to Bob Unglaub, that he fum- bled, but after the game Unglaub ad- mitted himself that he should have handled the grounder easily. If ever a pitcher worked a no-hit game, Gray did, that day, yet he lost, 6 to 4. In thé second inning of the contest for some reason he lost control of the ball. Despite the most strenuous ef- forts on the part of Catcher Charley Street, he was unable to steady him. In that one inning Gray passed eight men, seven of them in succession. This lapse of wildness, coupled with the three outs, netted Chicago six runs and the game. In only that inning did the White Sox threaten the plate.

Some people appear to be a bit trou- gled over the fact that only 88 gork- screws have been ordered for the 92 senators this year. It is reported that the new minister to China is such a clever diplomat that he won't tell a questioner the time of day without advice of counsel. Dr. Rose Ringgold is the only woman eontract surgeon in the United States army. When on duty she wears a divid»d skirt and a uniform coat. She is especially interested im the hospital problem of an army in the field and has made a study of the work of the Japanse hospital corps in the war with Russia. The so-called treasure of St. Peter cessible to. the general public will here- after be exposed to view on the pay- ment of a small fee. several old church vestments, among | them the dalmatic worn by Charle- magne at his coronation. The collec- tion of vestments is the most com- plete in the world and every kind of embroidery is represented. In Vienna a student’ can board for $40.60 a month; in other Austrian towns for $24.26. Rates in Russia run from $38.60 to $52.11 in St. Petershurg, and, this includes service, heating and light; in Mosccow the cost is $36.67; cutside of ' Moscow, $27,02; Odessa, $52.11, Mexico, includjng washing, Argentina, without washing, Uruguay, board and lodging, to $21.08, ‘The Paris student association schedules New York, with- o luncheon and washing, at from $30.88 a month to $38.60. The principal source of the world's clove supply is Zanzibar and the neigh- boring island of Pemba, East Africa. A ten-year-old plantation should pro- duce 20 pounds of cloves to the tre Trees of 20 years frequently produ upward of 100 pounds each. Beside the buds, the stems are gathered d form an article of commerce, com- manding one-fifth the price of cloves and having about the same percentage of strength, To this is due the fact that ground cloves can be bought at a lower price than the whole clove.
