positions.
MUKDEN, Nov. 19.—Late Nov. 17 the
Japanese opposite Boutiloff hill (Lone
Tree hill) attempted an advance under
the cover of artillery and reached a
small village between the positions, but
according to accounts from the field
brought by headquarters couriers they
were repulsed with large casualties.
The Japanese made simultaneous at
tacks along the railway, but they are
reported to have been without result.
The expectations regarding Port Ar
thur being captured have so far sub
sided that the possibility of the gar
rison making a last stand against the
enemy at the Tiger's Tail and Golden
Hill forts is discussed. The officers
who have just arrived here from the
extreme right say that the fighting
that has occurred there shows that
the Japanese are apparently testing
both the Russian flanks in turn.
The Russian officers here say the
Russian squadron will not be handi
capped should Port Arthur fall. The
squadron will proceed to Vladivostok
even in the event that Port Arthur
holds out, because there is better ac
commodation at Vladivostok. Small
hopes are entertained here of. the ef
fectiveness of the Port Arthur squad

FIREANDGASOLINE
ARE NEARLY FATAL
Two Women and a Boy Badly
Burned in Mutual Rescue
Work
Three persons were seriously burned
by a gasoline flre started in a peculiar
manner yesterday afternoon at their
home. 412 South Robert street The
injured are:
Mrs. Sadie Winder, fifty years old,
burned about hands, arms and face.
Mrs. James La Bow, twenty-two
years old, hands, face, arms and body
burned.
Albert Winder, fifteen years old, legs,
hands and face burned.
The boy started the fire by striking
a match on his trousers, which were
saturated with gasoline. He had been
cleaning clothes with the fluid, and
in doing so his trousers absorbed some
of the gasoline.
Clothing Saturated
Not thinking of the danger to which
he exposed himself he attempted to
light a fire in the stove and struck a
match on his trouser leg. In an in
stant he was in flames, the gasoline
having suddenly ignited.
The boy's cries for help brought his
mother, Mrs. Winder, who is a widow,
and his sister, Mrs. Le Bow. They
Immediately set to work to extinguish
the flames, and used their bare hands.
The clothing of the women caught
fire, and by the time the blaze, which
enveloped the boy, was under control
the women had to turn their attention
to their own flaming skirts.
Save Each Other
Albert, saved by his mother and sis
ter, aided them, and increased the burns
which he had received. The cries of
the three attracted neighbors, and when

DETERMINE TO FIND
NEW OEM MURDERER
Citizens in Mass Meeting Re
solve to Act Independently
of County Officials
Special to The Globe
NEW ULM, Minn., Nov. 19.—A fund
of 12.000 was subscribed by citizens of
New Ulm tonight at a mass meeting
i called to take independent steps to
run down the murderer of Dr. Geb
hardt, the dentist who was foully as
sassinated in this city two weeks ago.
The citizens were unanimous in the
opinion that, while no criticism should
be made on the county officials, inde
pendent action should be taken and
every means used to bring the mur
derer to Justice. A committee was ap
, pointed to superintend the spending of
the money subscribed, hire private de
tectives and attorneys and bring the
matter to a focus by the most rapid
available work.
The mass meeting, which was called
by Mayor Silverson, Ferdinand Crone
and L. H. Retzlaff, drew out a crowd
of 1,500 people, completely filling the
town opeia house and showing the ,
amount of interest which the murder
and the subsequent failure on the part
of the county officials to trace its per
petrators down had aroused. The
friends of the dead man were legion
and were emphatic in their demands !
for immediate action. The efforts of
the private and public detectives to
gain the reward offered for the arrest
and conviction of the murderer have
been a failure, in the opinion of those
present, and this failure was deemed
due to the lack of organized effort and
frenzied attempts to gain the reward.
White the mercenary spirit of the
bunt up to date did not meet with the
entire disapproval of the citizns, it was
deemed best to retain detectives of rec
ognized ability and place the inves
tigation upon a solid basis. The vari-

YALE TRAILS THE
CRIMSON COLORS
Blue E even Beats Harvard
G ants by the Score
12 toO
NEW HAVEN. Conn., Nov. 19.—Yale
today earned a victory of 12 to 0 over
her old-time rival, Harvard, in the
presence of 32,000 spectators on Yale
field.
The game was one in which Yale
proved superior to the brawnier set of
opponents both in the art of offense
and defense, in the first place through
better work with a few simple forma
tions, and in the second instance
through her ability to stop or break up
any play whether of a plunging char
acter against her line or used as a
subterfuge to turn her flanks. Yale
was not called upon to use a forma
tion which had%ot been shown in pre
vious games of the season, and at no
time was there any doubt of the out
come.
As the Yale men fought their way to
Harvard's goal line they knew they
were bound to win. and the courage
which came from this knowledge gave
them more power on the attack.
Harvard Plays Fail
Harvard, on .the other hand, placed
some reliance on plays which were in
tended to gain ground by runs around
the end. and in nearly every instance
these failed.
The precision with which Yale moved
her plays all the time, united action of
her backs with the linesmen, stamped
Capt. Hogan's team as one of the most
remarkable which ever went on a field
to uphold the glory of Yale.
Harvard, however, played a wonder
ful game on the" defense and showed
at times in the second half flashes of
inherent brilliancy on the offense.
The game itself, as a whole, was

downs—Absence of Capt. Strathern
Is Blamed for Gophers' Failure to
Pile Up Larger Score
By a Staff Correspondent
MARSHALL FIELD, CHICAGO.
Nov. 19.—Three touchdowns, bitterly
fought for, was the result of today's
game between Minnesota and North
western on Marshall field.
It was the hardest football the Go
phers have had to play this year, and
the Purple eleven lived up to the re
cent reputation every minute of the
play. "
Lighter than Minnesota, they fought
and struggled against the slow but sure
grinding of the men from the north un
til darkness fell and the final whistle
blew with the ball in their possession
on their 5-yard line.
Twice during the game Northwestern
had the ball on the edge of a touch
down, but the Minnesota line, battered
and crippled, rallied and held.
The protest lodged against Strathero
weakened the Minnesota line. Ricker
was shifted to center and Dan Smith
went In at guard. Thorpe was able to
put his foot on the ground the first
time in a week and Marshall showed a
decided limp.
At times the Gophers played in a
disorganized fashion and appeared
slow, but these slumps were always
followed by a spurt that made up for
them.
Grind of Gophers Too Much
For the greater part of the first half
Northwestern managed to keep out of
danger by holding at critical moments
tnd then punting. Gradually the Min
nesota grind began to tell and the Go
phers bucked steadily up the field un
til the ball was over.
A poor punt gave Minnesota, the ball
In Northwestern territory a few mom
ents later and Northwestern went to
pieces long enough to allow the second
touchdown.
The Minnesota rooters saw easy
playing ahead, presuming that North
western was tired out. In this they
were disappointed, as the Purple elev-

Henri Rochefort Gives Vent to Pic

Special Cable to The Globe
PARIS, Nov. 19.—Henri Rochefort, ed
itor of the Lux Intransigent, discuss
ing the Andre affair, said today:
"Andre should have been pitchforked
out of the ministry feet first, like a
corpse. He actually leaves with his
hand over his face to conceal shame,
sulking from the darkness of his
treachery. He gives way in face of
public ridicule. There is nothing left
of the miserable assassin of his coun
try except his false teeth and his
mendacity. Everything else is gone to
join the dead dogs and broken bottles
of the sewer.
"Andre's acts will perish with their
originator, who, out of pity, let us
hope will end In a comfortable padded
cell of some asylum as the least dis
honorable termination of his career.
Having finished with the minister of
war, let us turn our attention to the

The Purple put up a frantic resistance
from the start and worked through"
Minnesota's line until it looked Jike a
touchdown, but a plucky rally pre
vented this.
A blocked punt was responsible for
the third touchdown. Ricker and Vita
broke through the line, and Ittner got
the ball, taking it within scoring dis
tance.
Brush and Smith Are Stars
Brush and Smith were the ground
gainers for Minnesota, and both big
fellows put up a mighty battle. The
Purple ends made runs around their
positions dangerous and most of the
play was at the Purple line. Minne
sota suffered seven ly from penalties,
one of which prevented a fourth touch
down.
Early in the game Harris punted to
Johnson, who fumbled, and Current
took the ball over the line, but the
touchdown wa.s not allowed, the offi
cials ruling that Minnesota was off
side.
For Northwestern, Blair, the full
back, and Quarterback Johnson played
a spectacular game. Blai*- was the
only ninn to gain consistently, but ho
played out toward the finish.
Minnesota suffered severely from in
juries and many substitutes were used
In the second half.
On the whole Minnesota did not put
up the game that was expected, but
this was largely due to Strathern'a
absence. Nevertheless, Northwestern
was decidedly beaten in a contest that
was much harder than the Minnesota-

body, regardless of age or sex. It is
pointed out that in official reports of
engagements mention is made of the
number killed, but nothing is said
about the number wounded. Tne Ver

MAY ACQUIRE PRIVATE
PAPERS OF COLUMBUS
Rare Relics Seem to Be at Hand for
the United States
PARIS, Nov. 19. —A movement is on
foot to have the United States acquire
the collection of private papers of
Christopher Columbus which is now in
the possession of the Duke of Albe,
who lives in Paris. The existence of
these papers was recently brought to
light through the researches of Henry
Vignaud, secretary of the American
embassy. He traced them from the
death of Columbus through sixteen de
scendants to the present possessor.
They embrace Columbus' logbook and
many other papers relating to his first
voyage to America, and also part of
Columbus' library.
One of the curious documents is a
letter from a banker dunning Colum
bus for an eighth portion of the amount
of the money which enabled the voyage
to be made and resulted iv the dis
covery of America.
