THE BIG l-‘OOTBALL GAMES.
Yul; Defeats Princeton and Penn.
. . sylvanlu Conquers Harvard.
New Haven, Nov. 22 ——Princeton went
dotvn before Yale Saturday afternoon
1 one of the grandest struggles ever.
seen on a gridiron. The score of 6 to i .
tells of a victory for the Blue as fair as
it was complete and as brilliant as it
was surprising. Except in kicking,|
Yale’ s stalwart men outplayed the
Tigers in every department of the.
e.
Eertainly more than two-thirds of the
18,0 0 spectators that gathered aboul '
the arena expected to see Yale de-
feated. The Princeton men were sure
of it, and the most hopeful Yale e11-J
thusiasts dared only to express confi-
dence that the wearers of the blue
would acquit themselves creditably and
hold the Princeton score down.
But the football generals had reck-
oned without their host. The game '01
a week ago apparently was but excel-
lent training for the E115; they had.
been improving every day since, and
that uncertainty which makes the.
sport attractive was demonstrated
when the eleven young athletes wea1-
ing‘ the proud blue, inexperienced in
great battles, higher in weight and’
lacking the confidence, met their- o-p- I
ponents at every point and humbled.
them in the dust. I
The injuries of the Princeton men
doubtless had much to do with thei1
defeat. If they had been in perfect
shape the teams would probably have
played each other to a standstill.
Quakers Conquer Harvard.
Philadelphia, Nov. 22.—-—Pennsylvania
now claims the college football cham-
pionship of America. Saturdaypafter-
noon on Franklin Field, before more
than twenty-five thousand persons.
they defeated Harvard by a score of 15 '
to 6. They base their claim on the faci
that Yale could not score againsi
Harvard, while they ran up a total oi
15 points, and, as Yale tallied 6 points
against Princeton on Saturday,. they
argue that they are 11 points better
than Yale and 21 better than Princeton.
. The victory was honestly won and
well deserved. No fluke decided it
From the start both teams played fine
football, and kept it up without inter-
mission until the end. Both teams had
been taught the most advanced princi-
ples of the game, and had been sub-
jected to.the strictest training regime
to insure perfect physical condition,
and it is doubtful whether twenty-two
finer specimens of American manhood
ever faced each other in an athletic
contest in this country.
To Pennsylvania the result was
fraught with the greatest importance.
A defeat by Harvard meant a position .
below that institution and Yale in thei
college athletic world, While a victoryl
stamped them the championship foot-
ball team of 1897. It was with this feel I
ing that the sons of Old Penn enteredi
I
the game, and it was also with this
feeling that they played One of the
grandest games ever witnessed in this
city. They met a foe worthy of their
steel, who was not vanquished until the
referee blew his whistle at the end oi
the second half as a cessation of hos-
tilities. '
After the game the Pennsylvania
men Were carried off the field on the
shoulders of their enthusiastic fellow
students amid a cyclonic burst of
cheering, while the Harvard men quiet-
ly found their way out by a side en-
trance, almost unnoticed, there to en-
ter a ’bus and be driven to their hotel.
with defeat a grim companion. Thus
ended Harvard’s football season of
1897.
QUARANTINE ENDS DEC. 1.
Mississippi Follows the Other South-
,crn States in Declaring; It Off.
New Orleans, La... Nov. 22,—Missis-
sippi has finally repealed its State
quarantine against all points, on ali
freights and express matter .excepl
household and woolen goods and sec-
ond-hand clothing, to go into effecf
Dec. 1. This is the last State quaran~
tine to be removed. The Board 01
Health of Calcasicu Parish abolished
quarantine two days ago, but all pas.
sengers going west over the Southern
Pacific, as well as Health Officer Du~
perrier, were put off the train at th:
Calcasieu line by the quarantine
guards. This has resulted in a big row
and showed that the Board of Health
had forgoten to notify guards thal
quarantine had been abolished.
The United States Marine Hospita
Service has decided that there is no
further need for disinfecting freighl
from New Orleans. It will be kept up
on freight going over the Southern Pa-
cific until'Nov. 24 to keep a pledge to
the Texas health authorities, but wil.
be abandoned on that road at thal
‘time.’
Four Killed in 11 Fight.
New Orleans, La., Nov. 22.——A four-
handed shooting affray occurred yes-
terday at Bayou Lacombe, in Tam-
many Parish, in which all the parties
were killed. Bayou Lacombe is a set-
tlement in St. Tammany Parish on
Lake Pontchartrain, and about twenty
miles east of Covington, the parish
seat of justice. The population is com-
posed mainly of persons of French
origin who farm or hunt for a living,
and are usually quiet and peaceable.
Details of the shooting are not at
hand, for Bayou Lacombe is consider-
ably cut of the line of ordinary travel
and hard to reach. The Coroner has
been notified, and has left for the scene
. of the fight.
Big Fire in Paris.
Paris, Nov. 22.—A' destructive fire
started Saturday afternoon in a shop
in the Rue des Pyrenees, in the north-
east scction of the city. The flames
spread rapidly, and before the fire was
got under control a large'number of
small houses and workshops were de-
stroyed. The burned district covers an
area of about two acres. The loss is
placed at 400,000 francs ($80,000).
After a six-hours battle with the fire
the members of the fire brigade were
utterly exhausted and were relieved by
a force of 250 soldiers, who had been
ordered to the scene of the conflagra-
tion.
Russia \Vants Her Money.
St. Petersburg, Nov. 22.—Russia has
madea demand upon the Turkish Gov-
ernment for the payment of the arrears
of indemnity owed by Turkey on ac-
count of the Russo-Turkish war of 1877.-
Russia‘ holds that if the Porte caz:
afford to purchase new and unneces-
sary armaments it can pay its debts.

was graduated from Harvard in 1861,
and enlisted for the war as lieutenani

FOSTER WILL FIGHT HARD.
Means
to Prevent His Extradition.
Paris, Nov. 22.—William Riley Foster,
Jr., who was arrested at Neuilly, near
Paris, on Oct. 23, charged with having
embezzled $193,000 belonging to the
. gratuity fund of the New York Produce
Exchange while special attorney for
the fund in 1888, is making a hard fight
against extradition to the United
States, an application for which was
made to the French authorities by the
American Embassy. He has retained
as counsel Frederic R. Coudert and
Maitre Clunet, the latter the most
prominent authority in France on in-
ternational law.
His wife has started for the United
States for the purpose of enlisting the
aid of Foster’s friends in that country.
Just before leaving Paris on this mis-
sion Mrs. Foster complained to Gen.
Horace Porter, the United States Am-
bassador to France, of the conditions
under which her husband was confined.
She declared that he was kept
small cell along with common criminals
and was obliged to sleep on a plank
without any bedding. She also alleged
that the authorities of the jail would
not allow her to supply him with any
comforts.
Ambassador i'orter thereupon se-
cured from the j 11 officials some con-
cessions in accordance with which Fos-
ter will be more comfortably lodged.
