than a few yards. Murphy was hurt
again and the game had to be suspended,
Chad wick finally taking his place, with the
ball on Harvard's 35-yard line. Whitmore
was pushed through Yale's center for fif
teen yards, and Hayes was pushed through
their right for five yards more. Whitmore
again went through the center for five
yards, taking the ball to Yale's 40-yard
line. Hayes was pushed through Yale's
center for five yards and the ball was on
Yale's 25-yard line. On the third down
yard had five yards to gain. Then
Hayes went through Yale's left for five
yards. Harvard's interference was mag
nificent.
Armstrong; took Jerrems' place at right
half of Yale after the latter had been
injured. Tbe ball was passed to Butter
worth, who punted to Yale's 45-yard line.
Hayes muffed it and a Yale man downed
it. It was passed back to Butterworth,
who fumbled it and was downed on Yale's
35-yard line. Butterworth punted to Har
vard's 45-yard line. Harvard securing the
ball.
Butterworth punted to Harvard's 35
--yard line, and Frank Hinckey broke
through and downed faircbild before he
could recover any of the distance. Butter
worth's head and eye, which were hurt in
the first part of the game, affected him and
he retired, P. Hinckey taking his place,
who in turn went to Butterworth's place
at fullback, while Bass went to F.
Hinckey's place at right end. Armstrong
Of Yale was ruled off for slugging. Lytton

was ruled off for the same offense, Gonter

was injured and Wheeler was substituted.
Yale failed to gain on two downs. Then
Thorn tried to kick for goal and failed,
but the ball went belli' d the goal line.
From this point to the call of time both
bides struggled furiously, but neither suc
ceeded in making a goal or touchdown,
and the scoro at the end of the first ball—
12 to 4 in Yale's favor— remained the final
score. : ; : T •:
The closing play was unique. The ball
was on Yale's 15-yard line and Whitmore
tried to take it through Yale's right end.
Thorn broke through. Fairchild ran back
for a kick and punted the ball clean be
tween Yale's posts, but while it was in the
air the referee's whistle sounded the time
limit, and the prettily kicked goal was not
allowed. There was a yell of satisfaction
from the Harvard side as the ball de
scended behind Yale's goal post, but it
quickly changed to one of 'derision when
the official scoring board announced "no
goal."
Harvard protested, but the goal was not
allowed, and the finished score stood:
Yale 12, Harvard 4.

* WEST DEFEATS EAST.
And the Glory of Cornell Mas Gone
Glimmering:.
Detroit, Nov. 24.— Cornell's^glory went
glimmering this afternoon upon the field
of the Detroit Athletic Club. For the first
time in the history of the struggle between
the East, represented by Cornell, and the
West, represented by the University of
Michigan, the eleven of* the Wolverine
State won. The score was: Michigan 12,
Cornell 4.
For four years Michigan has fought val
iantly and unsuccessfully to attain a victory
and the applause which greeted to-day's
honestly won contest almost made the
ground tremble. It was the grandest
struggle ol the kind ever seen on Mich
igan soil. Pluck battled against pluck
and strategy fought with strategy, and
Michigan won by superior strength and
skill, by deeper cunning, but not by
greater pluck. Corned was beaten fairly
and squarely. ■ ' ; - : V.
The enthusiastic young men from Mich
igan's university are saving to-night that
to-day's vie cry places Michigan in a posi
tion as worthy to try conclusions with
Yale, Harvard, Princeton and Pennsylva
nia. Upward of 4000 people witnessed tbe
game. The line-up:
U. of M. Position. Cornell.

BloomtngstOD Fullback Dyer
substitute— for Villa; Dorouey for Taus
sig;.
The play began at 2:45 o'clock. Cornell
preferred the wind to the ball because her
defense contained wonderful runt6rs.
This gave Michigan the ball. Blooming
stou kicked it, but was nervous. With
tremendous rushes, however, Michigan
worked tbe ball right up to the shade of
Cornell's coal line. It seemed as though
Michigan was about to score, but at the
ten-yard line Cornell braced and the ball
changed ownership on a fumble. Only
for a short time, however, for by superior
line work the pigskin was again carried
toward the Cornell line. The ten-yard
mark was reached and passed and Michi
gan secured first blood, for Ferbert was
pushed over for the touchdown. Michi
gan bad scored. Bloomingstou kicked
goal. Score, 6to 0. Time. 14 minutes.
Play was at once resumed and the men
from Chautauqua fought like tigers to
equal Michigan's score, but the ball was i
again carried to Cornell's coal line. The
ball became Michigan's on downs, but
only for a time. Cornell's ire was roused
and Cornell scored a touchdown by Ma
son. No goal.
Score, 6to 4. Time, 11 minutes.
Cornell saw her chance io win and she
tried bard to secure another. Then en
sued the greatest struggle of Michigan to
increase her lead and of Cornell to secure
another touchdown. Up toward the Cor
nell goal went the ball. To the twentv
yard line it was taken and there it was
reversed. Slowly toward Michigan's goal
it was then carried. Cornell fought as she
never fought before. The battle grew
terrifically fierce. Villa was carried off the
field, his leg being wrenched. Ferbert
was hurt and the game was delayed for
Dyer, but Cornell could not score, try as
she would.
When the second half began it looked as
if Cornell's great team work would turn
the tide, but after the Cornell kick-off the
ball never became Cornell's property until
almost on the line of Cornell's goal. By
masterly runs, by splendid Interference
and by expert team work the ball was car
ried to the eastern goal. Senter made a
magnificent run and drive for twenty
yards and Starbuck tackled him. Both
men were hurt and Michigan lost the ball
immediately after on a fumble. Cornell
could only make progress by a punt. Tlii
was tried, but Bloomingstou fought
through the line, secured the ball before
the punt bad more than itaried, and Mich-
Igan had secured her second touchdown
by Blooiningston. He kicked coal.
Score, 12 to 4. Time, 14 minutes.
Again Cornell muscle was girted and
Cornell's skill called upon. The score
must be tied. Their efforts were in vain,
fur slowly the ball was carried to Cornell's
goal territory and Cornell gave up the
offensive fight. She fought only to pre
vent the scores growing. When the whis
tle blew the ball was in the center of the
field aby punt Michigan had won. Then
the yellow and blue went crazy with ex
citement. ' ,
ENTERED A "RINGER."
It Caused John Keho to Go to Jail
for a Year.
Bedford, Ind.. Nov. 24.— 1n the Circuit
Court here the jury, after being out fif
teen minutes, returned a verdict of guily
in the case against John Keho of Hancock,
Mich for enteriug a horse at the Bedford
Fair under an assumed name and out of
bis class, and Keho was sentenced to the
penitentiary for one year. The horse was
entered and started at a number of fairs
in Southern Indiana. The case has at
tracted a good deal of attention from horse
men til over the country. It Is the first
conviction of the kind in the country and
is under a statute of Indiana recently en
acted. The case was prosecuted by the
American Trotting Association. In the
case of Edward Swan, .the driver of the
horse, who waived a jury trial, Judge
Miers has not yet rendered a decision.
BIG SHIP ON SHORE
In the Mouth of the Columbia
River
The Captain, However, Has No Fears
for the Safety of His
Vessel.
Astoria, Nov. 24. — Between 5 and 9
o'clock this morning during a heavy south
east gale the British ship r Kentmere,
which went to anchor last evening near
the head of Sand Island, dragged her
anchors and drifted on to the spit on a
line between Chinook Head and Port
Stevens. Two tugs went to the assistance
of the stranded vessel.
At 1:40 o'clock a dispatch from Port
Stevens states the Kentmere has been
floated and is now at anchor in a safe
place, but this is doubted by some of a
Government tug's crew, who state that it
seemed impossible to float her at least
until next flood tide. Superintendent H<
gardt has just gone down and he is of the
opinion that there is no real danger of the
vessel becoming permanently stranded. A
sixty-mile gale is blowing from the south
west and the water in that vicinity is be
coming decidedly nasty.
To-night the Kentmere's position has
changed but little. A gale continues to
blow, and the last report which was cabled
from the cape was that the Fort Can by
life-saving crew had been placed on Sand
Island by the steamer Ilwaco and that
should the tugs be needed during the night
they would signal with colored rocket
The tugs are now tied up at the company's
wharf, it being useless to attempt to move ;
ber in the face of the 85-mile wind
now blowing. The captain of the Kent
mere does not seem alarmed at the situa
tion in which his vessel is placed, and
I hopes to get off without trouble in a day
lor two. Several vessels are bar bound
I here, as a terrific sea is running outside.
The Kentmere, if she is got off, will
have to undergo an examination before
going to sea, as it is feared she has been
badly strained.

THE MORNING CALL, SAN FRANCISCO, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1894.
BIDS FOR BONDS.
Uncle Sam's Credit is
Good.
SOME EXCELLENT OFFERS
Made by Capitalists at Home
and Abroad.
WALL STREET WANTS IT ALL.
The Syndicate Puts In a Bid for
the Entire Loan or
Nothing.
Washington, Nov. 24.— The bids for
the 850,000,000 issue recently offered by
Secretary Carlisle were opened at the
Treasury Department to-day shortly be
fore 1 o'clock. At 4 o'clock it was stated
nt the department that a hurried calcula
tion showed that the total number of '
separate bids was 297, aggregating $154.
--370,900. The largest bid was the syndicate
bid of the Uni'ed States Trust Company.
Drexel, Morgan & Co., and others at
8117.077 for the whole amount or none.
This was the best bid offered, as the ag
gregate of bids above this figure was
about $10,324,150, leaving about 539.675.850
at a less figure. It therefore seems quite
probable that the syndicate bid will be
accepted, although Secretary Carlisle :
stated that he could not express an opin
ion as to the result until next Monday,
when the awards will be made.
According to the terms of this bid the
Government will pay 2.878 per cent inter
est on the 850,000,000, as against 3 per cent
carried by the first issue. There is a pos
sibility, however, that a close calculation
will disclose the fact that there is a suffi
cient number of bids at a better rate than
this, which, with the second syndicate bid
at 116 8898, or 2.899 per cent, may make
a combination slightly more advantage us
to the Government than the other, al
though this is very improbable. Alto
gether, the result of the bids is eminently
satisfactory to the treasury officials, as it
chows that not only was there a brick
rivalry for the bonds, but the rate of in
terest demanded was even lower than was
generally expected.
In conformity with his circular dated
November 13, 1894, the Secretary of' the
Treasury opened the bids submitted
for a new bond issue of $50,000,000 United
States 5 per cent bonds to bear the date of
November 1, 1894, and redeemable In cola
at the pleasure of the Government after
ten years from the data of issue. This ac
tion of the Secretary is taken under the
authority contained in the act of Congress
approved January 14, 1875, entitled "An
act to provide for the resumption of specie
payments." This issue of bonds is made
fcr tbe stated purpose of replenishing (he
gold reserve which by withdrawals for ex
portations and other purposes has now
been reduced- to less than 858,000.000.
Nearly all of the recent withdrawal*, how
ever, amounting to about $55,000,000, have
been made presumably for the purpose of
purchasing bunds of the pending issue.
Under the terms of the Secretary's cir
cular of November 13 bidders whose pro
posals are accepted will be required to pay
20 per cent in gold coin or gold certificates
on the amounts of their bids as soon as
they receive notice of the acceptance of
such bids, and to pay in like coin or cer
tificates an additional 20 per cent at the
expiration of each ten days- thereafter
until the whole is paid; but they may at
their option pay the entire amount of their
b ds when notified of acceptance, or at any
time when an installment is payable. The
first payment, however, of not less than
20 per cent, must be made when the bidder
receives notice of the accepance of his
proposal. Tbe denominations of bonds
will be 850 and upward, and they will be
dated February 1, 1894, in order to make
the proposed issue uniform as to date with
the existing issue, but interest thereon
will begin November 1. 1894, and bidders
will be required to pay accrued interest at
the rue of five per cent on the face value
from November 1 to the date or dates of
payment.
It was decided to admit representatives
of the press associations to the opening of
the bids. The following are the names of

OPPOSE THE SENATE.
Newspaper Correspondents Show
ing Their Teeth.
Why They Did Not Answer the
Questions of the Sugar
Trust Committee.
Washington, Nov. 24.— Demurrers to
the indictments against the two newspaper
correspondents, Messrs. J. S. Schrlever of
the New York Mail and Express and E. J.
i Edwards of the Philadelphia Press, who
refused to answer questions as to the
source of the information before the
sugar trust investigation, were filed to-day
by Judge A. J. Dittenhoefer, their coun
sel. The day for the arguments in the
case has not been set yet.
The demurrers are alike in both cases.
Twenty-lour separate grounds are set up.
These include those heretofore made iv
behalf of brokers who refused to testify
and others particularly applicable to cor
respondents. The demurrers urged that
the Senate resolution fails to show that
the investigating committee was em
powered to try any Senator for disorderly
conduct, or that said inquiry was for the
purpose of assisting the Senate In any
legislative or judicial action. It is also
set up that to answer the questions pro
pounded to the correspondents would tend
to criminate them and render them liable
to a criminal prosecution, fine and penalty,
would tend also to render them guilty of
a contempt of tbe Senate and its members
and liable to prosecution, fine and penalty
and would tend to degrade them in com
pelling them to disclose prlva'e, confiden
tial and privileged communications.
The point is also made that the power
to punish for refusing to make answer
cannot be delegated by the Senate to this
court or to any court of the District of
Columbia. \~ --■'{■■ ';"!:-''-
The fourteenth objection Is as follows:
"That the laws under which the indict
ments were found are unconstitutional, in
that they violate the provision of lib con
stitution of the United States, securing the
people in their persons, houses papers
and effects, against unreasonaole searches
and seizures, and declaring that no person
shall be compelled to be a witness against
himself."
HAS LOST THE LIBRARY.
Professor Knapp's Books Go to A.
M. Huntington.
Chicago, Nov. 24.— Chicago has lost the
famous library of Professor Knapp. head
instructor ot the Romance language of the
University of Chicago. Its 6000 volumes
were shipped to New York to adorn the
home of A. M. Huntington, nephew of C.
P. Huntington. The library was pur
chased by Mr. Huntington on account of
the many rare books comprised in it and

Berlin. Nov. 24.— Pending the opening
of the Reichstag, which is now keenly
awaited, as the politicians are anxious to
«cc how Prince Hohenlobe will figure as
Chancellor, public attention is mainly
occupied with the split in the ranks of the
socialist party. The dissensions which
characterized the Frankfurt Congress over
shadowed the present trouble. The Bebel
and Liebknecht sections there overcame
by sheer strength of votes the vigorous
opposition of the Bavarian and South
German delegates, who wanted the liberty
accorded them of carrying out the socialist
programme in their districts as they under
stood it and especially in regard to the
agitation among the peasantry. They
contended that the special condition
prevailing in. Bavaria and South
Germany required special treatment if
the socialist movement was to spread
there. Bebel and his party, the delegates
from north and central Germany, however.
Imposed the will of the majority on them
and denied them the right of modifying
the socialist programme according to the
circumstances. Now the South German
and Bavarian socialists, with Vollman and
urillenberger at their head, have virtually
broken loose from the national party
traces. Vollman and Grilleaberser in the
newspapers of Munich charge Bebel with
being solely responsible for this disruption
of the party. Grillenberger in an espe
cially violent attack warns Bebel that he
is not the Czar and the socialist party Is
not the Russian empire. Bebel has re
plied with bitter words, both in speeches
and in papers, denying any intention to
arrogate the socialist party.
Vorwaerts printed an article written by
Herr Liebknecht declaring himself in favor
of South Germans and regretting to have
to throw his weight against an old friend
with whom he has fought shoulder to
shoulder for so long, aDd makes the signifi
cant remark that German socialist democ
racy is so well educated and the worship
of Individuals is so thoroughly eliminated
from Its ranks that no member, however
influential, can succeed in pushing it aside
from the path laid down by its principles,
experience and history and injure its gen
eral interests for the sake of a single man.
A remarkable though plausible state
ment is going the rounds in connection
with the socialist situation. It is to the
effect that the feud between the two sec
tions, even if it is mutually prearranged, is
in no way so bitter as the socialists at
tempt to make it appear, but that the
socialists are playing a subtle, concerted
game, and they are magnifying it
as much as possible before the eve
of the general public In order
to forestall anti-revolutionary legislation,
which, if the Reichstag by this maneuver
could be convinced that the socialists only
need to be left alone in order to split into
fragments by internal dissension, would
probably be rejected. This scheme, char
acteristic of the socialistic wire-pullers, if
it actually exists, has already borne fruit
In the moderate party, and especially the
national Liberals have fallen into the
trap, and are innocently taking the part
allotted them by the socialists, and are de
claring that the anti-revolutionary laws
are entirely unnecessary in view of the
disruption and consequent weakness of
the socialistic party.
Professor Retiring has come out with a
new discovery— typhoid serum. He
claims that it acts curatively (in the case of
typhoid fever) with about as large a per
centage of successes as in the treatments
with diphtheria serum. The typhoid
serum has not yet been placed upon the
marker, as it cannot yet be produced as
cheaply and as perfectly as is desirable.
The Imperial budget for 1894-95 is now
fixed at 775,000.000 marks, 70,000.000 marks
above the budget of last year. This is
owing to the now army law and the in
creased needs of the uavy. Of this sum
567,000.000 marks are put down for the ex
penses of the army. The budget will con
tinue increasing for the same reasons
every year until 1899, when it will reach
the sum of 860.000.000 marks.

FRAUDULENT FAILURE.
The Jacobs Family Stood In to Loot
Their Creditors.
Guthrie, O. T.. Nov. 24.— The failure
of the Boston Store, John Jacobs pro
prietor, which was announced last nigin,
has developed much fraud. The more was
closed on attachments of several clothing
and dry-goods houses, and ijt was shown
that but : $6000 assets , were on hand, to
show for the liabilities amounting to over
$50,000. The receiver appointed has ascer
tained that before the failure large quan
tities of goods were shipped out of the
Territory to other towns and hurriedly
sold out. A search of Jacobs' residence
revealed trunks filled with fine bolting
cloths and other goods: Joel Rosenbleet,
a brother-in-law of Jacobs, has been ar
rested in Perry, where in his branch store
were found several large loads of goods,
and a warrant has been issued for an
other relative In St. Louis, to whom it is
alleged goods were shipped before the
failure. —I"- " .
HARBOR LINES.
Likely to Cause Trouble for Wash-
ington Land Commissioners. '
[ Tacoma, Nov. Attorney Wicker
sham late this afternoon filed the suit pre
pared by Attorney-General Jones of this
State asking that the locations of the
harbor lines for the Tacoma harbor be set
aside, on the ground that they had been
fixed through collusion and fraud on tbe
part of tbe State Land Commission with
the Tacoma Land Company and the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company.
An order was granted by Judge Stilcup,
temporarily restraining the local Board of
Tide-land Appraisers from adopting the
State Land Commission's harbor-line loca
tions. Tbe suit is the result of the failure
of tbe city to come to an agreement with
• he two corporations respectineoutlets for
city streets to deep water. The suit at
tacks the constitutionality of the law
creating the State Land Commission. If
the law is found to be valid the harbor
line locations of over a dozen cities and
towns on Puget Sound, Grays Harbor and
Willapa Harbor must be set aside.
SAVING ARID LANDS.
Various Projects for Reclamation
in View.
For the Most Part There Is a Ten
dency Toward the Coloniza
tion Plan.
Washington*, Nov. 24.— There are va
rious schemes to utilize the arid-land law
that was passed at the last session of Con
gress. It gives the new States and Terri
tories 1.000.0C0 acres each of .Government
lands if they will redeem them. Among
the schemes proposed is one for the States
to build irrigation ditches with labor
brought from tbe overcrowded towns and
cities of the East, and to pay for that labor
half in cash and half In land, to be occu
pied when the irrigation works are com
pleted. It will, however, be difficult to
induce any great number of city people to
go West under such conditions.
It is proposed to establish a model irri
gation colony somewhere in th« West for
the purpose of demonstrating what can.be
done by a single man in. the w<»y of agri
culture, if his labors are properly directed.
Five thousand acres of land will be taken
In some locality convenient to water
and transportation facilities, and 100
farmers placed on it with farms 01 from
twenty to forty acres each. They will be
organized on the village system, as
adopted by the Mormon", in order to
avoid the objection? that peonle in thickly
settled portions of the country invariably
raise when they are recommended to go
West.
The farmers will live in a village with
schools and churches just as convenient as
they have them in Ohio or Massachusetts,
and have their barns or storehouses on
their farms, which will not be more than
three miles away at the farthest. Their
wives and children will have plenty of
society, and there will be a store estab
lished by the association at which they
can secure at reasonable prica? everything
they need. This is the plan Suggested by
Brigham Young and it has proved to be
very effective in keeping the Mormons
contented and happy and in promoting
education and adherence to the doctrines
of the church. *-

New YOKE, Nov. 24.— The bookkeeper
in the National Shoe and Leather Bank
j disappeared a few days ago. The National
| Bank Examiner has just finished an in
vestigation which discloses a defalcation
of $354,000. The bank bas a rapital of
81,000,000 and a surplus of about $2C0,0C0,
leaving an Impairment of capital of about
5150.0Q0, which will at once be made good
by the stockholders.
John M. Crane, president of the Na
tional Shoe and Leather Bank, gave out
the following statement at' the bank this
evening:
To the public— A. bookkeeper of this bank
has disappeared and the result of a thorough
investigation made at our request by the

to the amount of 5354.000, to meet which the
directors have called on the 'stockholders for
an assessment sufficient to amply cover any
deficiency. We append a statement by the

President Crane of the defrauded bank,
in speaking of the aff-tir, said: "The de
faulting bookkeeper is Samuel G. Seeley
of 422 Halsey street, Brooklyn. lie has
been in the employ of the bank for the last
fourteen years and was one of our trusted
employes. On last Friday afternoon Seeley
applied for a leave of absence over Sun
day, promising to return on Monday morn
ing. A substitute was put to work on his
books on Saturday, and as Seeley failed to
appear on Monday morning the same sub
stiute resumed work on the books. These
were discovered to be in such a condition
that an examination of them was imme
diately made by the officers of tbe bank.
"Th's was finished and the amount of
the cation known by Tuesday night.
On Wednesday we sent for the National
Bank Examiner, who finished his labor
and verfied our statement to-day. Seeley
was guaranteed by the United States
Guarantee Company for £7500. and the
officers of that company considered him
one of their best risks. Seelev was a man
of very quiet habits. He has a wife and
two children. The whereabouts of Seeley
is unknown. His wife is at present pros
trated by the shock of his crime and his
consequent flight. She is very ill, we have
been told."
