The determination expressed by ship- pers and their disposition to form sirong organization to contest the pro- posed advances aroused some anxiety amongst those who rely on the I rates to keep up profits.

The resolution of inquiry adopted by the house, calling for information re- garding the attorney general's inves- gation of the United States Steel cor- poration, was discussed with some show of interest. but the effect on the market was negligible. The decrease in the European visible supply of cop- per did not help the copper industrials, the price of the metal receding again in_London. Money remained easy in tone, but it was questioned whether this condition was not influenced by the purpose of lenders to keep funds available in short term loans or on call in a mood of doubt over later developments.

Has Ed Casey in Tow for Heavyweight Bouts—Allie is Out of the Bowling Business Now. Allie Murphy, the duckpin star, journeyed here from Bridgeport on Thursday and was calling on Norwich friends, introducing Ed Casey of Eridgeport, a heavyweight pugilist, whom he is managing, and would like to put on for bouts with any scrappers | in this neck of the woods. In size and bulk Casey looked the part, weighing in the neighborhood of 190 pounds and standing well up towards six feet. Besides going in for the pugilistic game, Casey has a_football record of two years on the Villa Nova eleven, where he played tackle in 1907-8,meet- ing some of the best opponents that could be found in the college world at t time. It was his luck to stack up against the captains of opposing elev- playing Wauseeka of the Carlisle Northeroft of the Navy, and r of Princeton. An 80 yard run sey on a fumbled ball to a touch- was an incident of the Prince- down tong ame, but he was called back and the touchdown not allowed because of some infraction of the rules by anoth- er Nova man. Murphy has quit the bowling busi- ness, preferring something else for the of another returns to would like wants to summer, and has prospects line of occupation when he Bridgeport. Meanwhile he to hear from anyone~ who meet Casey. Penn Crews Show Slight Lead. Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 16—The chief topic of conversAtion in the row- ing camps tonight was a near race between the Pennsyivania and Syra- cuse ’‘varsity crews for four miles along opposite shores of the Hudson. The two crews chanced to get away just at the same time and, although wide apart, the rival strokes could not resiat the temptation to brush. They kept on about even terms until the last half mile,when Pennsylvania made a strong spurt and stopped rowing, somewhat in the lead. All the crews had their usual prac- tice this evening.

San Franclsco, June 16.—To all In- tents and purposes the Jeffries-John- son championship fight tonight s a pugilistic outcast, as far as California is concerned. It is a perfectly good fight except that it has no ne of hostilities, That it will not be held Francisco or elsewhere is generally admitted, a congclusion in which sporting circles grudgingly con cur. Tex Rickard, promoter of the bout, is so certain of this that hs has declared his Intenfion of suing Gover- nor Gillett and Attorney General Webb for alleged damages sustained becauss of intervention. Attorney General Webb sald today that he would not hother with an ap- plication for @ temporary restraining order, but would ask for a permanent injunction. He expects to have his ap- plication on file within & few days. The only real action of the day in the big fight situation was a disoon- certing one for fight followers, Waork was stopped on the construction'st the arena. The men were not actually laid off until today. No Change In Da Rickard Saye. San Francisco, Cal, June 16—"The fight between Jeffries and Johnson will take place on July 4. If net in San Francisco, then I will pull it off in Reno, but the fight will be held on the date set and T will keep my promise.” This statement was made by Tex Rickard to the Assoclated Press to- night, soon after S8outhern Pacific offi- clals advised the promoter that six special fight trains had been cancelled during the day. Rickard was greatly San in in California | agitated over this information and alse over the fact that many orders are be ing received to cancel or resell fight tickets. Plant’s New Sloop Lost Race.
