meeting of the stockholders of the Amer
ican Can Company will be held, on Feb

lication at that time. In the previous
year the company reported net earnings
of !5,$07.SCZ, and a surplus after preferred

pected that the showing for last year
wilf be considerably better than these
figures, as It la stated in well-informed
quarters that the company benefited to a
large extent by the war In Europe, due to
an Increased demand for Its regular prod

FOGARTY WILL
TOSS FOULS FOR

Veteran Forward Is, How
ever, Scheduled for Re

OTHER CAGE NEWS
The signing of Joe Fognrty, the veteran
forward of tho Kastcrn Lcngue, by Urcy
stock, marks another step In the elimina
tion of the old-timers. While the chances
nre thnt Togarty will Inst throughout
the icmalndcr of tho season with the
Greys, ho will. In nil probability, bo
filntcd for a mnnngerlnl position or un
conditional release next season.
Already Hilt Kccnnn, who was released
hy Do Ncrl nfter Inst season nnd who
began this campaign with Trenton, has
been given his unconditional release.
Shortly nfter the beginning of the pres
ent senson the Jasper Jewels released
Army Fitzgerald, nnother veteran of tho

With only n two-gnme lead over tho
Camden team, Greystock Is having a
hard fight to keep Its position nt tho top

Allle McWilllams nnd Lew Sugarmnn are

come hack to the form that sent them
to tho foro nt the beginning of the season
nnd held them there.
Do Nerl will try to take a fall out of
tho Greys this evening nt Cooper Bat
talion Hall. It Is probable that Fogarly
will play one of tho forwards for the
Churchmen tonight nnd do the foul shoot
ing. It wns Mike Wilson's failure to
locate tho net from the 15-foot mark lnt
night that cost tho Greys a 31-15 defeat
by Jasper. Freldmnn and Fox did their
work so well lost night that nclthur Wil
son nor Rube Cnshman wns nblo to shoot
a field goal. The only goals made hy
the Greys were annexed by Bill Her
ron and Lawrence.
The guarding of both teams was of
tho highest order. The final count In
field goals was seven to two In favor
of tho Jewels, and It was not until the
last five minutes of play that Jaiper
had more than" four. A apurt In these
last few minutes sent their total from
four to seven, whllo Barney Pedran's
foul shooting sent the count up to 31.

FROWN ON THE
WRESTLING GAME
Dorizas, Recently Injured
on Mat, Was Urged to
Give Up the Sport
RULE IS NECESSARY
By EDWARD R. BUSHNELL
Wrestling may be a lino Mort, but tho
conches of the t'nlvcrslty of Pennsyl
vania's major teams do not think so, At
least they live In fear nnd trembling
when nny of their star nthletcs pursues
It cither In competition or merely as an
exercise.
"It Is too dangerous, with too many op
portunities for serious Injury," say tho
conches.
The Injury to Jtllto Dorlins Is a enso In
point. A year ngo Dorlzns suffered a
number of minor hurts, which, together
with tho practice he had to devoto to
wrestling, made lt Impossible for him to
do nny serious work with tho shot. A
strained muscle ho Inherited- from tho
wrestling senson put him fnr back In his
training for the track team. Tho climax
enmo when he strained n muscle In his
leg and was unnblc to score In the Inter
collegiate championships.
Urged to Quit
This year, ns last year, tho track
authorities urged Dorizas to give up his
wrestling nnd devote himself to the shot.
Coach Orton assured him thnt if ho would
leave wrestling alone and concentrate on
the shot be would have nn even chance
to bo the Intercollegiate champion In this
event. But Dorizas loves wrestling better
than any other sport, so It did not take
much urging, on the pnrt of tho wrestling
management, to bring him out for this
tenm once more. Now Dorizas Is hurt
again, this time seriously. It Is doubt
ful If he can wrestle again this year, and
ha will probably be too crippled to do
himself Justice In the shot. If he Is able
to compete nt all.
There are two wnys to prevent such oc
currences, One Is for the coaches to have
enough Influence over their men to pre
vent candidates for tho major sports
trams taking up a sport like wrestling
wltn Its possibilities of strained musclC3
and similar Injuries.
Murphy Ruled
Jllke Murphy never pcrpiltted nny of
his track or foolbdll stars to tnko up
wresting If ho could' h.lp It. It Is true
that Bob Folwcll, who payed football Mid
threw tho hammer, aljio wrestled. J'ut
Murphy was able to dissuade most of his
men from engaging In wrestling. Ho In
variably suggested boxing'' in prcfcrcnco
to wrestling.
The second way to prevent It would bo
for the University Athletic Commlttco to
pass n rule restricting nthlctes to two
sports a year, unless permission were
granted for a third. This Is the rJlo In
force at Harvard.
John W. Overton, Ynlc's star distance
runner. Is going to test himself at Indoor
running next week. And In so doing ho
proposes to test the best of the club run
ners around New York. He is tho star
entry in the mile nnd n half special raco
that is to bo run at the Mllliosc A. C.
games next week. Ever since Overton so
completely outrnn the Cornell distance
stars In tho last Intercollegiate cross
country championships ho has "been In de
mand for the club mectB in and about
New York. Efforts nre being made to
get Overton Into a mllo run during tho
winter against the Indoor record of Abel
Klvlat.

BANKRUPTCY LAW
COULD BE HELPED
' BY AMENDMENTS
Many Proposed Changes
Should Be Rejected,
Says Credit Man
CREDITORS AT FAULT
By GEORGE MASTERS
Chairman Investigation Committee, Philadel
phia Credit Men's Association,
Tho question of tho value of the pres
ent bankruptcy law hns bce,n given atten
tion by mnny associations of business
men slnco Its enactment, nnd opinions
have ranged fiom nn unqualified demand
for the repeal of the law In toto to an
equally unqualified Indorsement.
Tho trend of prcsont dav opinion seems
to be that the bankruptcy law ns It stands
Is better for creditors than nny of Its
predecessors; that the debtor Is entitled
to tho relief that It affords, and that,
with all Its faults, It Is infinitely to bo
preferred to n return to tho old daya of
the "snnp Judgments," with the nccoml
pnnlment of unjust nnd Inequitable pref
erences that made tho life of the credit
man nn unholy nightmare beforo Its en
actment. Thnt It can bo Improved requires no
aigument, for no business law can bo
drafted that will meet the cvcr-clinngtng
conditions Indefinitely, nor Is lt likely
thnt nny law will be drafted that Is so
perfect that the shrewd, or unscrupulous,
lawyers cannot find wnys to circum
vent It,
TIirtEE CHANGES NECnSSATtY.
Careful consideration of tho proposed
amendments dovclopsl tho fact that many
of them nre advanced to overcome ob
jections that nro local In their applica
tion nnd they should bo rejected fnr Hint
reason, Tho business man has come to
lecognlzc the ndvnntnge of uniform laws
for nil tho States as opposed to tho con
fusion resulting from laws that npply
only to the Individual State and to tho
business transacted herein.
Of tho amendments proposed, those that
seem to bo most necessary at this time
may bo classified us follows:
First. The reduction of tho costs of
ndmlnlstcilng bankrupt estates by con
solidating tho ofllccs of tho lecclvcr nnd
the truslro so that tho estate will be
obliged to bear tho expense of but ono
olllco nnd Its legal adviser. Granting
Htntutory fees to petitioning attorneys nnd
to tho attorneys for tho receiver and (or)
trustee, vesting in tho roferco dlscietlon
nry powers to cover tho extraordinary
case nnd tho case in which thcio Is evi
dence of fraud.
Second. Increasing tho tlllllculty of
obtaining a discharge by requiring tho
bankrupt to prove to the satisfaction of
the referee thnt he la not at fault, on
tho safe principle- that tho petitioner in a
court of equity must come Into court
"with clean hands."
Third. Changing tho penal sections of
tho law to nfford better facilities for tho
prosecution of commercial fraud. Making
tho testimony of tho bankrupt a volun
tary act nnd removing the clauso prohib
iting the use of his testimony In otNcr
court proceedings.
Mnny other suggestions nro being ad
vnnccd thnt are worthy of consideration,
but it would seem to be good Judgment
to confine present activities to na few
changes ns possible and to bear in mind
thnt any amendments that favor the

On tho other hand, suggestions that
first, referees shall receive a stipulated
salary from the Government; second, i
tnal the united states District Court
nhall appoint u permnncnt trustee, or a
board of trustees, to Immediately take
charge of all bankruptcy cases In their
district; third, that all applications for a
discharge shall be Hied within six months
of the date ot adjudication, nre all fair
and equltnblo and might result In Improv
ing the practice, reducing costs and ex
pediting results.
With all of these nuggcstlons-ln mind. It
is the general opinion of those who have
studied the matter that trie greatest fault
with the bankruptcy law is directly due
to tho attitude of tho creditors. Their
habit of turning claims over to collection
agencies or to attorneys and promptly
forgetting nbout them until dividends
reach them Is so pernicious that they
havo no right to criticise tho meagrcness
of the dividends that usually fallow.
Tiicre may bo some excuso for the fall
tiro of tho out-of-town creditor to attend
meetings before tho referee, but such at
tendance would be of less moment or
wholly unnecos:ary If local creditors
wero not equally lax. It 13 only natural
that tho attitude of an attorney should
bo governed by that of his principal, nnd
It Is unjust to expect a collection agency
or a lawyer to act ns a detective, nn ex
pert accountant and an all-around Sher
lock Holmes, in addition to performing
his duty as a legal representative for a
maximum feo of 10 per cent, of the divi
dend received by the creditor from a
bankrupt estate.
Boferccs, lawyers and the representa
tives of thd collection agencies are only
human, and t It is not surprising where
tho creditors show no personal Interest In
a case that there should bo a growing
disposition to clean lt up as quickly as
possible, get what fees lere are and let
the creditors take what is left.
Any statement about the bankruptcy
law would be Incomplete that did not add
a word of appreciation for the aslatance
now being given by the Department of
Justlco to efforts to punish "bankruptcy
frauds. It is a pleasure to note that vio
lations of tho act are recognized as
crimes against tho Government, and the
vast machinery of t'te Government Is at
the disposal of creo. rs who can show
the United States District Attorney sat
isfactory jvidence of bucIi violations.

LONDON, Jan. 2L-Notwlthatandlng the
fact that Montenegro has resumed hos
tilities against Austria, the Stock Ex
change markets were dull and irregular
In the main today.
The. Bilt-eded section sagged. Support
was restricted, owing to the maintenance
pf sales of exchequer bonds on a large
scale. This is causing tho money market
to tighten again. Dealings In Americans
were confined to United States Steel

in stocks acceptable to the treasury
ceased.
The tone of Canadian Pacifies was fUt,
Jlome railway shares were listless and

In Mexican railway securities. The with

SUBSTITUTES tfOR LEATHER USED
WITH GRATIFYING RESULTS
Secretary of National Retail Shoe Dealers' Association
Tells What Has Been Effected in Absence of
Material Formerly Employed
"For years we retail shoo men have
been preaching 'there's nothing like
leather' till It has become a household
word," said A. II. Geutlng, ot 1230 Mar
ket street, secretary of Die Js'atldnal He
tall Shoo Dealers' sso&lntlon. "Wo
will have to change our slogan because
we have concluded that wo must In some
cases use substitutes. But we nre only
going to use such substitutes' ns have been
thoroughly tested nnd which we can stand
bnck of. Wo had our nnmml convention
In New York Inst, wtck and this is the
conclusion we nil arrived nt. And we
want to take the 'public Into our con
fidence and tell them Just what we arc
going to substitute, where we nre going
to substitute and why wo nre going to
substitute for rent leather.
"First, let mo preface by pointing out
what every one must know. The populn
llon Is Increasing, nnd tho number of
cattle which furnish the hides for leather
Is nnnunlly decreasing. The result Is,
leather Ii getting scarcer, nnd prices
higher. Now where can wo substitute
without Impairing the quality ot tho shoe.
Tnko tho stiffening In tho heel, which
makes the heel hold Its shape. We havo
found ,Jt Is not necessary to uso leather
ns formerly- for that purpose. By sub
stituting horn fibre wo got a better stif
fening, that lasts longer and does tho
work better than lenther. We .had it
proved by having It placed In 1O0O pairs
?f mSXr orKaVrsthe'nbre
ffi- ""hll?tZ?3$Zim?
milicliiiiK v"M iww iuo i .ni.v-.ww- ...... ...,
and In the left-foot shoes In the remain
ing COO pairs. And the result wns thnt
of tho wholo 1000 only three of the flbro
proved bad, whllo of the leather stlffcners
over IB per cent, turned out unsatisfac
tory. We also can effect economics by
substituting this material In heels of
shoes, especially In the high heels of
ladles' shoes. Heels nro mado of layers
of leather built up. By having tho first
nnd last lav era of leather nnd tho Intor
mcdlntc layers built from horn fibre we
produce ns good n heel as though It were
all leather. In fact, it Is better than an
all-leather heel. This was proved In a
very Interesting manner a coupla of J'cnrs
ago, when tho city ot Toledo, O., was
flooded, A shoo dealer had s.me Bhocs
with solid leather heels In his store, nnd
somo with heels made partly of horn
llbre, Tho wnter soaked Into the leather
heels nnd swelled up nnd burst apart,
whllo tho fibre heels remained ns they
were, shoeing thnt water did not affect
them."
FEET TOE BOX FOB. SHOES.
"Then tnko tho too box of a man's
shoe. It is quite stiff, nnd this s'.lftncss
has been made from leather. Now wo
aio substituting a compressed felt which
serves tho purposo better than leather.
By these substitutions wo nro able to put
a better leather Into the body of the shoe
for tho samo money thnn wo could other
wise do If wo wero compelled to uso
leather altogether and the shoo wears

longer. There are men nnd women In
New York who pay ns high as $23 n pair
for their shoes. They havo had them
made by hand for years by shoemakers
who do nothing but strictly handwork.
But that generation of handworkers on
shoes is fnst disappearing. Ono of them,
nn old man, nddressed bur convention nnd
it wns most pathetic.
"I still claim there Is nothing llko
lenther," said Mr. Geutlng, "but we must
hnve good, serviceable shoes at moderate
prices nnd we must conserve our leather
products especially, as wo are now to
tally dependent on ourselves slnco the
European leather supply has been cut
off."
TUNGSTEN BUItNEIt BEST LIGHT.
"I believe there Is no subject on which
tho public Is less Informed of itB real
progress than electrical appliances," 'said
Frank II. Stewart, of 37 North "tli street.
Every one hears about the spectacular In
our business, hut the rcnl things thnt
mean so much to the public comfort nre
passed over or lost sight of. Tnko the
tungsten burner which replaced the old
time carbon filament. Everybody sees It
nnd takcqvlt ns n matter of course, but
they never think how much It has In
creased their volume ot light whllo using
less current.
"Tungsten Is a very common metal. And
IWrt bSt U.t." to'n0 than't caXn
filament. It Is better known as the
tho tungsten filament not only gives more
Mnzda burner.
"I nm the first man who hns mado a
living In Philadelphia by selling electric
appliances alone. I hnndlo nil hinds of
electric appliances by wholesale. I do
not export so I know nothing about for
eign requirements. Tho cost of every
thing thnt enters Into tho construction
of electric appliances hns advanced very
much In price slnco tho beginning of tho
war. Copper, brass, silk, everything, nnd,
ot course, tho cost of electric appliances
has advanced accordingly. As to bat
teries, il'cre ils a variety of opinions ns
to .the best. Wo havo been expecting
great things in that line from Edison for
years, but nothing materialized, nnd now
tho explosion on the E-2 hns dashed our
hopes again. In my opinion there nre
only three good batteries on tho market
today, tho Exldc, the Ever Itcady and the
Wlllard."
Mr. Stewart has a regular museum of
electric lamps and sockets, showing the
evolution of Incandescent electric light
ing which Is unique.
NOT WOnniED OVEB. DYESTUFFS.
"Dyestuffs do not worry Us ns yet." said
Montgoi cry II. Wright, of J. B. Stetson
Com:niiy, "nor tho high prices nnd
scarcity ot furs for felting purposes.
"Wo havo supplies ot both for two years
