Boston, Jan. 17.—Bobby Josephs, HINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS DULL. New York, Jan. 17.—Variable gains among industrials, utilities and special- ties, particularly those under profession- al control, and moderate reactions in the rails measured the extent of today's very dull and inconclusive session of the stock market. [ Sales of 535,000 shares repre- sented the smallest dealings in a number of weeks. Local tractions owed their strength ‘to prospects of state legislation providing for higher fares and the coppers devel- oped firmness on rumors of a probable merger or consolidation of several of the prominent producing companies. Financial - and _industrial happenings over the week end were of the same con- fusing character as those which have in- | § finenced or governed market values for | s the first fortnight of the New Year. Im- provement in the federal reserve bank po- sition was neutralized by the deficit in actual reservs revealed last Saturday by local associated banks, although this is subject to speedy -correction. Western points reported further de- crease in raflway tonnage and a sluggish investment market, but ~advices from more remote sections in the west and southwest indicated a pronounced turn for the better in general business and credit conditions. The foreign exchange market was strong, especially continental Buropean rates. French, Belglan, Italian, Dutch and Spanish remittances registered ma- terial gains, as well as the German rate. The advance was largely attributed to the forthcoming meeting of the repara- tions committee. Money quotations were unaltered, all the day's call loans being made at 6 per cent, with a stiffening of outside quota- tions. More funds were offered for two and three months-at 6 1-4 per cent. and interior banks'were buyers of mercantile paper. The demand for bonds was irregular, ‘with consequent uncertain of tone, es- pecially in the foreign divisions, where French issues eased. Liberties were ac- tive and mostly substantially higher. Te- tal sales (par value) aggregated $13,350,- 000. Old U. §. bonds were unchanged on eall.

The champion Wwas never in danger. AUSTIN-D..RICE MADE A GOOD RECORD IN RING Mr. Rice was 48 years old and was born_in Waterford, the son of a farm- er. He was a carpenter, but for more than 20 years, from about 1330 to 1910, was well*known through score of ring battles, some of which were of many rounds and, against some of the best| Mghtweights of the day. ‘His tirst ring battle of any conse- quence wes with ~ Billy Wright in Montville in '1894. * He won this bout in one round.and shortly afterwards met Harry Jennings, who he defeated in’three rounds. In 18%4 and 1895 he met, besides the above, Billy Reagan, winning in three rounds; Whitey Sul- livan..winnings in four rounds; Charles Johnson, winning in four rounds; Ed- dic Gallagher, winning . in- three rounds;. -John Sheehani, winning Yn threc .rounds; Andy Rdbinson, win- ning in two rounds; Jimmy Duffy, knocking him out in five: rounds; knockifig out Jack Fogarty in ‘two rounds; knocking out Young Peck in four rounds; Eddie Gallagher, 10 rounds, draw; George Hankin, four rounds, dra: John Sheehan, three round, draw. 3 In 1896 Mr. Rice met and defeated Johnny Glynn in 10 rounds, Sammy Meyers in 10 rounds, and drew twice with Dave Sullivan, 10 and 12 rounds. He lost to Harry Jennings in 10 rounds on an unintentional foul. Beginning in 1897, Rice met some eof the best men of his weight in the coun- try.

Johnny Ryan in three rounds, the famous Patsy Broderick in 11 rounds, and drew with Sammy Meyers ‘,i“ nine rounds, Billy Murphy in 20 rounds and Oscar Gardner, one of the best men of the day, in 20 rounds. He lost in that year to Patsy Maley, a star, in 20 rounds, and to Sammy Kel- ly, another star, in 17 rounds. In 1898 Rice was then in his prime and was looking for the best light- weights in tke country and met many of them. He knocked out Jack Burke in three rounds, and this sent his stock up. He won on points over the fa- mous Paul Kelly in a 20 round bout; also over Patsy Broderick in 20 rounds. He fought Broderick later in the year and drew at 20 rounds. Benny .Leon and George Munroe also dréw with Rice at 20.rounds. ‘His only loss that year was to Terry McGovern in a 14-round battle, In 1899 Rice knocked out Joe Gold- en in three rounds and won over Billy ‘Whitaker in 10, rounds.

Tommy Feltz and Johnny Burns. ‘He appear- ed in bouts in New London against four big stars, winning from Tommy Sullivan ‘there in 16 rounds and.draw- ing with him' there in 20 rounds. He also met Tommy Feltz and drew in 15 rounds. - He defeated Johnny Burhs on -Now. 27, 1801, in a memorabie 20 round bout that was remembered for vears by those who saw it. 3. iy 1 :1902 he’ won-'from Tim Cailahtn | in St. Louis in. 15 rounds and drow with Harry -Lewis in Chicago\in- rounds. - He .fought Joe Bernnstein, pride ‘of the Bast Side in New York the battle being fought.in Philadél- ! phia with no-decision, but Rice wii called a winner by ringside fans.

He:lost to Benny Yanger in-Chicago and .then came back to New-London and defeat- ed Billy Ryan, a star of the first mag- nitude, in 20 rounds. His last fight that year was in Stafford Springs on November 27, defeating Billy Ryan in 20.rounds. X : In 1903 Rice began .to feel his age and was in fewer. battles, but appear- ed to be just as clever and hard to defeat as he was. 10 years previous.| He fought a draw with Tommy Feltz in Boston, the battle being on January 9. He left Boston with Mosey, King, now boxing instructor at. Yale, and traveling night and day on trains, ar- rived in Hot Springs, Ark., on January 14, took a rubdown and’went into the ring with-Young Corbett, then light- weight champion., He was not con- sidered any more than a hard set-up for the champion, but.in the first three rounds, Corbett was at Rice’s mercy, but the New London boy could not get- in the telling blow. From the fourth to the seventeenth roung, Cor- bett increased. his speed -and in the 17th Rice's .seconds threw a sponge ‘into the ring. .Rice was in distress, and the effects’of the:long train ride was what really defeated him. Two days later Rice met and defeat- ed Eddie Toy in St. Louis and from then on won draws with those he met until October 4, when met and defeat- ed Billy Ryan in Westfield, Mase. During that year Rice was matched to meet Terry McGovern in Water- bury, but the police put Rice under $1,000 bonds to keep the peace and the fight did not come off, This helped to discourage Rice and he began to fight less frequently until about 1810 when he ceased to perform in-the ring ex- cept at Elks gatherings, and for char- ity. His last ring appearance in New London was two years ago last month, He met Abe. the Newgboy, a¢ a Gro- ton Iron Works smoker, going three rounds and showing much ef his old time cleverness and pugnacity. . He appeared in this city last spring at a K. of C. smoker in the Sunlight building and was the boxing instructor of the K. of C.. He appeared in the corner of Jackie ‘Sullivan and Danny Doyle when they boxed here. For two: years, up to: last .spring, Mr. Rice was employed at the Groton Iron Work. 'He was more recently engaged in farming and doing odd jobs of teaming. Besides his widow, Mr. Rice leaves a son and daughter; a brother.
