10 BOSTON POST, TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 24. 1903 MARKET STRONGER BUT TRADING BULL Wall Street, Nov. 23. stock market stood up well In face of a number of uptoward circumstances and clo.sed quite lirm at the level of the day and on the most active market of the day Southern as- the leadership of an early advance, which was rather decidedly checked by an outpouring of United States Steel preferred, which carried that stock down to 50 1-2 and awakened renewed apprehension of its further demoralizing effect on the whole stock market.

The persistence with which assertions have reappeared that the dividend on the common stock la to be suspended and that on the preferred stock to be reduced has made Its Impression upon speculative sentiment since the authorities In the corporation who have been appealed to for information go no further than to sa.v that the question is for the future to decide. The suggestion, which found Its way to the public today with the appearance of being ln.spired, that a reduction of the dividend on the would consort poorly with the privilege to issue of eecond bonds to retire preferred stock, to have a more reassuring effect on the speculators and helped in the recovery of United States Steel preferred. The stock closed with a net gain of a point. The stiffness of the call money market was another deterrent factor toward the rise. Call loans touched 7 1-2 cent, while the demand for money which caused this rise unmistakable, it seemed to be viewed with equanimity.

The premium established for New York exchange at Chicago is taken to point to an early return flow to this centre, which the high call money rate would help to Induce. Confldence Is felt also that any real need for money would draw further gold froim London. State Street, Nov. 23. The market was not active today.

but was much stronger than Saturday. While there are a few who look for a bad market in December, owing to the fact. that there ire still a few weak spots, still the great majority of and brokers look for practically steady improvement from this on. It may be. probably will be, slow, how- eVer, but by the middle of January It Is generally believed that substantial progress will have been made toward a higher level of prices.

In the local market the coppers were very Arm, especially In the afternoon, helped by the rally In Amalgamated which seems to be starting out to discount to some extent the possibility of a favorable Supreme Court decision In, the McGlnness suits In Montana. The fact that Fighter Augustus Heinze was building political fences and also planning to appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States in the Racus case seem to have much effect on stock. Certainly Heinze COLLINS. PARENT AND HUGHES IN TOWN ESTABROOK TEAM LOSES With Jimmy Collins, Fred Parent and Tom Hughes of the Collins team in town yesterday, baseball cranks were given a new lease of life, and for a while hase- baill crowded out post mortems on the big football game.

It would be Interesting to know just what will happen when the underwriting agreement expires on I United Copper stock Dee. 31. Amalgamated gained 3-4 to today.

Jake Stahl will be let go to Washington.

Yesterday afternoon Collins journeyed to Marlboro and made terms with the genial Duke Farrell. Collins and Hughes unexpectedly ran into each other on Washington street. Jokingly, Collins told Hughes that he understood that a had been foVmed to have a little fun with Henry Klllilea. Hughes denied this. Collins called him to one side, and in a few minutes everything was arranged.

Collins said: "We will have a good team in 1904. It should be even better than our champion team. Practically all of our players will be re-signed. Unglaub cad will be given 5 good tryout. Washington Is negotiating with Jake Stahl, and as Farrell and Criger will be In shape, -Klllilea is apt to let Jake (Stahl go.

For these reasons the current firmness of the call money market does not seem to disturb sentiment. Another factor of possible disturbance was the collapse In Republic Steel preferred, which lost 7 points on the day. There was no sympathetic response to this outside of a few of the other Iron Daly Wqst dlvidendir checks looked so substantial that the stock advanced 1-2 to 36. Michigan, U. S.

It is a straw, perhaps, that the selling Is almost entirely by the traders, based; possibly, on nothing mere than the absence of buying orders. My own opinion is that the market will gradually strengthen. There is every Indication that urgent liquidation is over, and that hereafter It will be realization of profits rather than what 19 termed liquidation." The directors of the Calumet Hecla Mining Company today declared a dividend of $1-0 per share, payable Dec. 22 to stockholders on record Nov. 25.

This is the dividend declared this year. mJklng a total of $35 per share for 1903, as against $25 per share in 1902. $46 per share in 1901, $70 per share in 1900 and $100 per share in 1899. declaration i brings the total since the beginning up to $83,350,000.

kick made in the last few yards of the coveted goal line, but the Boston Latin boys dug their cleats into the ground and staved off defeat. With only a few seconds left to play and with ball on the 15-yard line, Leonard saw it was useless to try to push the ball over. He signalled for a drop kick. His linemen held hard, tho pass was good, as like a flash the ball struck the ground. Between three Latin minutes of a hard fought contest set i School forwards the ball rose and sailed the Newton rooters wild with delight, and i over the crossbar.

at the conclusion of the game he was borne around the field on the shoulders of his happy schoolmates. Before the game started neither team had lost a league game and the rivalry between them was bitter. Both were very evenly matched and both had their rooters out In force. Twice in the second half Newton got the ball to within a few Latin School wa.s not yet beaten and had the time been longer would have stood a good chance to score. They were rushing the ball desperately to the Newton goal line when the whistle blasted their hopes.

Both teams played snappy ball throughout and the game was one of the finest school contests seen around Boston this season. IN THE CYCLE LEAGUE At tbe Chauncy alleys last nlsbt In the Cycle league series the Mets lost to the Independents. The score: 1 METS. 1. 2.

Hart, who plays right halfback, comes from Everett and Is captain of the Georgetown eleven. He is well known to local sport followers. Before entering Georgetown he played on the Boston College football and baseball teams.

He is as good at baseball as at and is a star track athlete. speed as a runner has helped Georgetown to win many of her games this year. Perhaps the best known of the trio is Riley of Charlestown, who, with Hart, also represented Boston College on the track, gridiron and diamond. Riley is one of the finest all-round athletes In the present college world. He runs the quarter mile under 50 seconds, plays a remarkably strong football and bnscball game, and last June was one of the best oarsmen on the Georgetown crew, which finished well up in the Intercollegiate regatta on the Poughkeepsie.

Riley Is studying dentistry at Georgetow'n. In the Princeton-Georgetown game the Tiger coaches after the game paid high tribute to the line plunging ability of Leon Martell of Weymouth, who plays fullback for Georgetown. Martell Is a i freshman at Georgetowif, and great things are expected of him before he completes his college course It was a big day at the fish pier.
