That was announced here today by Jack Kearns, manager of the heavyweight champion. Dempsey himself who was today on "location" near here with a company of movie actors despite orders of his physician to remain in bed, following an automobile crash Sunday, expressed surprise that Tunney won a kayo victory over the Frenchman. "Gene is a very good boy; better than I thot," said Dempsey, "His victory over Spalla meant nothing but his knockout of Carpentier shows he has class.

NEW YORK, July 25.—Carpentier who has an uncanny penchant for wriggling off the hook, managed again to make a knot out "technical" and today screaming aloud that he was fled, robbed and outraged. His claim this time is bad by stouter stuff than his crick double cross by Ski and the two elk ankle alli with Gibbons. One saw the blow about which complains. The French rider wheeler was bent over, his bicep the referee, chin on Tunnel shoulder. Tunney, whaling ward at his concaved midsection came up and hit him. Maybe hit was low, maybe it was Georges had struck Tunney before the belt several times in ear rounds and had been forgiven. Carpentier dropped after he straightened up, then writt about on the canvas with an describable expression of agony his handsome face. There was count. Everyone stood in content. Then the bell rang. The len man was helped to his stance where he hung on the lower rope his features twitching. Descam was yelling "foul" at the top his trained lungs and begging, manding pleading, groaning, to the referee examine the aluminum guard. No water was thrown on Carpentier. The shill fifteen second stole the air. The scissors withdrew, the bell clanged. Carpentier bent over and with a meln of tortured suffering, made a move as to put up his hat but they fell of their own wege. The referee pushed Tunney an and waved the light off. Carpentier sank down on his hauna and lay limp. This after an exhibition of grace by Carpentier which no suspected. Brilliant, dash and picturesque fighter that had always been even in defiance. at the United Theater tonight and tomorrow, is a distinct contribution to screen romances of the sea.

Many of the scenes were made out at sea aboard a sailing vessel, and the advice of a man whose face is furrowed by the storms of many years in command of a sailing craft went far towards preventing unaccuracies in production.

That woke him He swung at him and with the same motion tore at Tunney he weakly but grimly landed with classic right. The crowd was his feet. Down again went Georgeton on one knee from a right upper arm against which he had no defense Descamps leaped on the ring edge with a sponge held aloft. A Georgeton excited dragged him down Carpenter was up again and lasing out As the bell rang, Tunney hit him forty times and the Frenchman was swaying like broken orchid in a wind Tunney stepped aside. Carpenter clapped in a heap. He was carried to his corner. And the eleventh, with Carpenter still doll eyed and groggy as wobly was Carpenter's. Twelfth was even. The thirteenth he weathered but he was gold fast. He had lost his distance and whip as well as his sting. He hung on. In truth, he even doing most of the leading Tunney was backing about, wafting for the opening and astray or ashamed to tear loose. The fourteenth looked like it end but Carpenter was still his pins and his eyes were beginning to brighten. Then came the clinch and the exchange at the ropes when the alleged low pumice was struck. Anyway, while the fight lanced the flesh of the superlative fighting man was a surprise and sensation. The whole crowd had been for Tunney but switched to most to a man for Carpenter, foreigner, and cheered like man until the sudden and disappointing...

Providence, so to speak, has come to thid aid of these hungry Berlin folk shown above.

As a rule the realizing sales which came into the market today were directed elsewhere than to the railroad stocks, and even the low priced issues which have been moving forward briskly in the last few sessions were able to make slight improvements. Excellent records were made by the old line dividend rails, including Lehigh Valley, up three points to 52½ and Reading up 1½ to 62½, the highest prices for these stocks since segregation of coal properties: Lackawanna at 131, up 2; Delaware & Hudson up 3 to 121½; Pittsburg & West Virginia up 2½ at 64½ and Chesapeake & Ohio in new high ground at 57%. These stocks continued to be the backbone of the market today and no signs of retreat were exhibited by any stock in this group. Speculative attention was again diverted from the stock market to the grain market in the early afternoon when prices of grain in Chicago and Winnipeg shot upward two to five cents a bushel and were held from further advance only by the heavy realizing sales. The cotton market was called on to absorb heavy offerings but the squeeze in July contracts resulted in a rise of nearly $3 a bale. Domestic money and industrial conditions played a more important part in shaping speculative investment than the London conference, the interest in the latter is keen. The federal reserve banks and the big commercial banks are able to finance a wide expansion of American industry and low money rates are still an important factor in the situation here. Buying of leading oil stocks continued in good form today, backed by the feeling that, with crude MONTEVIDEO, July 25.

Grains were higher all day today. News from everywhere was bullish. Wheat closed 1½ to 2½ higher. Corn closed ½ to 2¼ higher and cata closed ½ to 1⅓ higher. The Canadian crop reports had much to do with wheat's rise. There was good buying to help. Selling was scattered. Corn was strong early on buying by locals.

Buying of leading oil stocks continued in good form today, backed by the feeling that, with crude oil price slashing out of the way, with the leaders of the industry determined to curtail drilling and consumption on the increase, the oil stocks should soon begin improvement which the remaining months of the year will bring to the industry. Higher prices for raw and refined sugars were reported today in New York and Cuban sugar stocks formed an important part of the transactions of the day. Industrial leaders like Baldwin and American Locomotive were unusually inactive and prices moved in a narrow radius.

The market plowed down in the third and fourth hours and transactions were on the smallest scale of any similar period in the week. The forward swing in price of stocks in the last hour was featured by the vigorous advance in Cheesapeake and Ohio in which the volume of sales was unusually heavy. The stock sold up to $8½ which is the highest recorded price for this stock in the history of the road, with the exception of a few sales at 92 in 1909, and 1910. The high book value of this stock in comparison with that of the stock of other companies entering the Van Sweringen merger makes it particularly attractive from a speculative standpoint.
