NORWICH DUCKPIN PAIR WINS OUT BY ONE PIN. Ten Game Series Lost by Narrowest Kind of Margin by Westerly Team. Manager J. J. C. Stone and Bill Mc- Clafferty could have made no closer finish and kept the money than they did on Thursday night at the Rose al- leys against Holdsworth and Bliven of Westerly, for they won out in the ten game match by just one pin. 1919 tto 191S. Ttat one pin settled the $10 purse which was up on the series. The first five games were rolled in Westerly Tuesday night, when the Westerly pair established a two_pin lead, 941 to 939. Last might the Nor- wich pair in the final five games scor- ed 980 to 977, winning the purse on total pinfall. An enthusiastic crowd watched the sport. Manager Stone copped ‘the high to- tal, making two pins more than Bli en, 510 to 508, and McClafferty captur- ed the high' single, with 118, which was also good for the daily prize at the alleys.

A large proportion of recent railroad bond issues of the large rail- road systems have found ready accept- ance with foreign subscrivers. The =peclal importance of this foreign in- vestment grows out of this country’s indebtedness abroad on other accounts. Reliance has been placed on still fur ther subscriptions by foreigners, espe- cially to the New York city bond issue 1o be sold next Monday. The mer- chandise import excess valuation in February and the almost prohibitive export prices at which cottoh and wheat are ruling make this placing of our bonds abroad important to pro- vide means of investment for our for- eign creditors. The Bank of England'’s action, it is feared, may interrupt this process and draw gold from New York. Such a result might check the progress of financing of domestic requirements and react unfavorably on the business and industrial situation. The stock market showed little sign of perturbation over this prospect. The opening period of unsettlement was #hort. The subsequent advance in prices was due in part to the oyersold conditions of the market which had grown up in the two days' decline. j Discussion of the labor situation al- i most disappeared. Much was heard, on the contrary, of the processes of argument by which could be deduced the conviction in the speculative mind that the supreme court on Monday next would hand down a decision in the American Tobacco case; that the decision had been already written, and that it would be In favor of the de- fendant corporation. In order to but- tress this confidence there were pub- lished elaborate opinions from learned Jegal sources to demonstrate how a decision adverse to the corporation would leave room still for adjustment to the new condition with prosperous activity uninterrupted.
