Only the withdrawal of the MARKET WAS HEAVY, AnInitial Dividend of $30 on Bethle- JJhem ‘Steel Common Was Announced. Nek York, Jan. 20.—Almost the one ipteresting development in . today’s heavy market was the declaration of an initial dividend of $30 on Bethlehem Steen common ‘‘out of earnings for 1915.” The announcement was both a surprise and a disappointment, it hav- ing been believed. in some quarters that. no such oughit that the amount of the disbursement was too small, considering the re- ported earnings of the company. Prior to the publication of the Beth- elem dividend: the market was dull and irregular. Soon thereafter, how- ever, heavy Selling ensued, which was maintained on a broaded scale to the close, with severe recessions, particu- larly in war issues.. Bethlehem pur- sued an erratic course on very light dealings. . It fell 14 to 471 in the fore- nooun but recovered to 478 before the dividend- was .announced, later yield- Ing to 460 Ind clollng at 479, a net loss of six point Unlud Btl.tes Sted whose dividend tus js likely to be established next '.ek‘ le heavy in the afternoon, declining to 83 3-8, an overnight loss of 1 3-4, with no recovery. Automo- bile shares were weak . throughout, General Motors falling 12 to 475, Willys-Overland 5 1-2 to 219 1-2 and Studebaker 3 3-4 to 150 5-8. The more lve war issues fell two to al- most five points and ofls three to ten, Texas company being again subject ‘to steady liquidation. Less material losses were recorded by a score of un- classified stocks. Ralls were leth: gio at the outset, but fell away other investment issues later, losing ono to two points on moderate offer- gs. Shares of the international group were heaviest, giving point to rumors of fresh foreign selling. There were gains in such stocks as Cuban- American Sugar, U. S. Industrial Al- cohol, ‘American Coal Products and a few other issues which derived their chief impulse from pool manipulation, but these were swept aside in the weakness of the final dealings. T salés amounted to 625,000 shares.

With a wealth of material for the fast pacing classes, the Grand Cir- cuit secretaries are not likely to do as much sidestepping in the matter of free-for-all classes for 1916 as was the case during the season just closed. The sensational trio of pacing side- wheelers which pased in 2.00 or bet- ter in 1914 seemed to so far outclass all other pacers which were liable to race that last spring few of the Big R.ln‘ secretaries cared to take a chance taging an event open to all, with tha It that Directum 1, William and Frank Bogash, Jr., each made but one start, outside of the two match Directum 1 paced three uxhlbluofn miles and a match race on _a half- mile track, while Bogash made but a single start. The exhibition game s'.hlnloft.hlpnnuhrubl‘urn ings are concerned. Dan Patch was the last performer to Jrovc a profit- able tool at that sort Willlam is eliminated' from consid- eration for the coming season on ac- count of his ownership; Frank Bo- gash, Jr., does not look so terrifying to the fact Mng' a year ago, and raging in fast company tor three sea- sons and was not in condition to. race at the close of the past Grand Cir- cuit season. The tflo. which looked so formidable in the spring of 1915, vfll not scare many out of any open pac. % ing classes which may be oflu‘d !or the comxnl season. % e records, and also perform- l.nca-. !he pacer of the balance of the free-for-all brigade which must - be given the most consideration is the big Tennessee ‘stallion, Napoleon Di- rect 2.00 3-4, which Pop Geers has raced for two seasons. He wes a big winner in the stakes in 1914, mrun‘ tt” durh the i 1y ol the “mutt” ng the ear] season, yet umn..nmnr“zocxc and proving himself a real stake horse. Last season he was not defeated, win- ning the fastest five heat race ever paced, setting a fifth heat record of 2.01 1-2 I.nd equalling the fourth heat % [ record of 2.02 1-4. He was lame for some time after his first race at Cleveland, but “Pop” is in a class by himself among train- ers when it comes to patching up a cripple, and he beat 2.01 twice in a race at on. He is a peculiar gaited horse, going ,very high; so high that for a time he 'was equipped with elbow boots and I believe he is the ‘g fastest sidewhesler to wear that sort o rigging. Scott Hudson's Peter Far- ren wears the elbow protectors, but % he seems a few seconds shy of being as fast a pacer as the Geers stallion. The fastest of the new pacers to % | force themselves into the free-for-all class the “season was the hand- % past some little western gelding, Hal Boy 2.01 1-2, who raced 18 times and won more money ‘was won by any % | Pacer in a single season. While the little horse may let up 'a bit at the end of ‘a fast mile, as most of them will, he will mmnuon-nu the next one, and he paced a brilliant race in the match with Jud(o Ormonde -at Lexi: Dick A f%% been | away back in 1900.

UPSET MANY Z TRACK AND FIELD MARKS Several Athletes Turned Great Per- formances in 1915. Before the newly born 1916 runs its course into the dim and hazy past many track and fleld records may be ied, for the year is rich in promise. Norman S. Taber, however, set & mark for the classic mile which may endure until a new race of men s when he covered the distance In ute- 12 3-5 seconds. But the rest on no such secure b-o. Anomr year may see Dnew names written across the pages of new marks for hurdles, the javelin and other events. Ted Meredith, the fiyer of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, has run close to the record of h" ‘h‘fl A;Md'uf“ 4 ards, established by Maxey ng 2 Meredith . has turned some ‘wonderful performances in the last year and the end is not yet in sight. He looks forward to a wonderful year in 1916. Another young man who is burning the cinder paths in his rush to athletic fame is Frank Sloman, of California. Sloman is a consistent performer at 49 seconds and will surely improve. Le Roy Campbell, who wears the maroon “C” of the University of Chi- cago, is the runner who is regarded as being most likely to shatter the mark for theé half-mile run. He won the national championship at the Panama- Pacific exposition in hang-up style and critics believe that Ted Meredith’s world record of 152 1-2, made at Stockholm in 1912 in Olympic games is within - his possibilities. Homer Baker, of the New York Athletic club, is a consistent performer when right, and he may rise to his greatest heights timber-stopping may set new in both the high and low He met with an aeccident playing football last fall, but has re- covered, and will be in, condition to return fo the track. Thére have been few men in the history of the sport who compare with this speedy young- ster from the land of the setting sun. Kslly who holds the world's record for .the 120-yard high hurdles, won both high and low hurdle races in the national -championships and he says that ;he is not yet at his.best. There -is ‘no .great chance for sha tering the records in. the sprints.

The records. of the little Finn may last for some time'‘to come, or it may be that Hannes will take a new lease on life, and add a few more club, while Louis Scott of the South terson A. C. holds the outdoor mark at 5000 metres. The exponents of the art of weight throwing plan a busy time this year, and John 'W. Record may get the trim- ming of his interesting career. Arlie Mucks is pointing both barrels at the record for the sixteen-pound shot. He hurled the iron ball Gl‘gfl on Ag\llt 21,1900, Mucks is to. depended on to better 48 feet, and won the na- tional champlonship with a heave of 48 feet 11 3-4 inches. He is also out after the discus records. A possible record holder in the jave- lin throw looms up in the person of George BEronder, of €ornell. He has been heaving the spear to dis- tances. He grabbed off the national title with 17 feet 2 3-4 inches and has bettered 180 feet in practice. The mark is 184 feet 9 1-2 inches and is hfld by H B.
