DKTROIT. Nov. 25.—Close: Liverpool
'J h.-at was firm at the opening, but;
declined later und was easy at tho;
close. The American markets were
firm and very quiet.
Shorts In Liverpool were covering!
1 under the Influence of higher prices Ini
Buenos Ayres and light Plate offerings.
Manitoba was firm also and the Eng-!
M*h markets were nervous about sup- j
ow * n g to so much wheat going to ■
the continent. The Argentine outlook <
wa* not considered promising st first,
but later iu the day a cable told of
better prospects, resulting In an easy
feeling and closing decline. Tha
world s wheat visible supply had a very
small Increase lyst week, compared
w *th the before and & year ago.
The feeling on this side Is bulitsn
find the expected Increase In nortn*
western wheat receipts fails to show l
up. Winter wheat movement is in
creasing in some directions, but the
car lots at Duluth and Minneapolis arc
3s 1 short of last year’s total. General
feeling In the trade Is bullish. Deal
ere think all wheat in sight will'be
needed..but at present the public in
terest In wheat is small and the dea*
is entirely in the hands of profession
als. a condition that makes an advanct
difficult.
Exporters were active buyers of
wheat on Tuesday and the purchases
included American winter wheat.

ATHLETIC MEET
ENDS IN WILD RIOT
Participants and Spectators Fig

Intense enChuHiuHin on the part of u
crowd of rooter* at the trao kuieet
and boxing match*** held in C'eutral
High school, Tueailuy night, by the
social center* of the public schools,
resulted in a riot, in which Ned Wal
ters, a participant in a boxing maun,
was knocked out by a blow over the
head with a chair, and other partici
pants in the u nil otic events and spec
tators were slugged and pounded with
tints, dumbbell* and chain*.
While the principal tigntlng was go
lug on the lights on the building were
turned off and the carnage continued
ill tile dark.
When the list of wounded was com
piled, Walters was found to be the
most seriously hurt, but his adversary
in the lK>xing match, Abie Coheu. was
among the missing, and the Walters
contingent claim that he was spirited
away by his friends so that his bat
tered condition would not be known.
The free-for-all light was the tinai
outbreaking of a restless spirit that
pervaded part of the rooters all dur
ing the evening. It was apparent that
the supiiortera of one or two of the
teams came to the meet with a pur
pose of ••starting something’* if they
didn't win. Early In the evening
there was trouble In the balcouy,
which calmer heads finally quieted.
The brawl broke out several times
later, but was Immediately squelched.
However, so apparent was the fight
ing spirit of some of the spectator*
that entrants in the athletic events
Uhtlrew for Jear of being pummeled.
The cllqjax came at the finish of a
boxing match between Walters and
Cohen. The bout wasn't at all satis
factory to gonvj of the ringsiders.
There was considerable argument
about it, when a shot was heard. It
was onl ythe starting of a race, but
the belligerent ones took it for sig
nal for battle and started things. The
lights were switched out and the tur
moil continued until the gymnasium
was strewn with chain* ami a . ■
utensils.

ed, however, the strife did not cease,

ut a cost oC about $1,000,000. We can

from George H. Fenkell, former engi
neer of the water board, to lay the
pipes Members of the board replied
