i A half hour's signal drill followed by & little tackling and interference prac- tice and a short snappy scrimmage to wind it up, was Friday afternoon’s menu on the campus. Coach McKay had not ‘ntended to serimmage the boys but they Appeared so peppery that nothing else would do and the way they mauled the ®second team around was beautiful to !mee. The mecond team by the way, al- | though a Mttle dumb at times, is by no means anaemic, as was shown last Tues- day when it held the varsity Scoreless in an all-afternoon scrimmage. The boys are improving every day. They are taking their - work seriously ‘ mtely which accounts for a goddly share of their advance in form. Up to this ,week they were inclined to be careless ,and indifferent, treating practice as a | frolic rather than hard serious work. This may account for taeir unnecessary de- feats back along. Then of course it may 1 wot. The old ouija board predicts a viteory for the Red and White tomorrow, the ysame -ouija board that picked the Whis Sox, Jess Willard and Lonergan.

M0OM & StLan New York, Nov. 4—Extremely on-| se00 Mo pac.T. fusing price changes characterized to- duy’s session of the stock exchange, the erratic movement being accompanied by B turnover approximating 1,200,000 shares the largest total of any day since the early autumn period. The constructive side of the market was agaln uphe:d by the railway divis- jon, although some of that group, nota- bly Reading and Canadian Pacifie, as well as many minor issues, were sub- jected to varying degrees of pressure. Reversals verging upon weakness marked the offerings of steels, shippings. motors and kindred specialties, also a score of miscellaneous issues, in which gross As~lines of 2 to 5 points coincided with bearish trade reports. Southern Pacific retained its recent leadership, transactions in that stocki far exceedin;: any other, but its further advance of 3 5-8 was reduced to a mere fraction at the end. Included among the other strong and active rails were Northern Pacific and Great Northern, the former making a net advance of 3 5-8. Gross advances of one to 2 1-2 points in other transcontinentals grangers, coalers and cotton carriers were much mpairde before the finish, when indus- irials were under stronger fire and call money rose to 10 per eent, inviting in- creased selling for the short account. Ome ©f the disquieting features was the general weakness of foreign ex- change. The British rate dropped to the lowest quotation in several weeks, French bills were at their minimum for almost six months and Italian remit- tances registered an absolutely new low level with rates on Gresce. Strength of Southern Pacific converti- ble 6's again overshadowed all ether dealings in the firm to strong bond mar- ket. Total sales (par value) aggregated $14.875,000. OWd U. S. bonds were un- changed on call. STOCKS.

Chicago, Nov. 4—Wheat underwent a material setbask in price today owing more or less to talk that countty offer- ings were larger. The market closed pervous, 3 1-4 to 6 1-4 cents net lower, With December 200 3-4 to 201 and March 194 3-4 to 195. Corn finished one cent down to 3-8 cents up, oats off 3-8 cent 10 5-8° cent and provisions caried” from 10 cents decline to 5 cents.advance. Downturns for wheat values began as soon as trading opened and it was said a house with southwestern connections was sponsoring talk of enlarged rural offerings. Bears put stress, too, on- as- sertions that wheat was still relatively high as compared with other grain and with commodities in general. Lack of any sign of important new import bus- iness counted further as a handicap on the " bulls. Meanwhile considerable no- tice was taken of the fact that Canadian wheat brought hére by water was being unloaded for Chicago millers. Buying power seemed to be at a minimum ex- cept from shorts, covering profits. Scantiness of receipts had a strength- ening effect on the price of December ¢orn. . Otherwise quotations: were gov- erned mainly by the action of = wheat. Oats were easier. Liberal shipments helped te _ steady provisiens.
