The New York University football squsd
enjoyed a comparative holiday yesterday
after a strenuous week of practice. The
work consisted mainly of kicking, forward
and double passe? and trick plays. Special
attention was given to drop and place kick

up well. Signal practice, however, took up
most of th« time.
Wheeler took Dutcher's place at end and
did very creditable work. Nixon, last

scholastic differences with the faculty had
been settled and that he would appear to

rial announcement last night of all the

let their teams lie idle on October 17 and
11 the dates for the opening games for

Should a seventh game be necessary- the
place and date will be decided by the toss
of a coin.
The ana] arrangements were settled
after a conference between Presidents
Farrell and Brush of the two New York
clubs and Thomas J. Lynch of the Na
tional League/ who acted as the repre
sentative of the National Commission.
The games will be played under the
rules governing the series for the cham

League staff, and William Evans, of the
American League staff.

Court of General Sessions, will act as the

TOWN STIRRED BY JOKER
Writes Letters and Inserts
"Fake" Want Ads
Nyack. N. T Oct. I (Special) —Orange- !
burg, a village four miles from Nyack. is
in a ferment of excitement over the receipt
of anonymous letters by residents of the
place, ? igned _■ many instances "Pet."
"Dearie" and "White Caps." Some of the
letters are said to be full of scandal and
abusive language, while others ridicule the
recipients and chide them for their foibles.
They purport to inform innocent wives and
husbands of. the doings of their deceptive
mates.
One husiness man's wife received an in
sulting missive setting forth his "erring
way*" and frequent trips to New York with
'•a fat gir! from Nyack." Another citizen
was told to stop calling on a young woman
"who sings in tne church choir," and a well
known «loacon ot the Greenbush PresSy
terian Church received one admonishing
rum no; to "tip his elbow" so much.
The boldest act so tar was the sending
of* an advertisement to "The Nyack Even
in" Star " signed with the name of David
H Clark, a member of the firm of Bell &
','o.. New York. The advertisement was as
folio.:
"Wanted— Working housekeeper for lone
gentleman; must he neat and clean; no ob
jections to color: wages S-W per month.
Fine place for right party. Call in person.
David H Clark, Oran^ehurg. N. Y."
By 6 o'clock last nieht the Clark house
had" been visited by several women, white
and black, who were anxious to obtain the
place. Mr. Clark found that the newspaper
had be«>n ordered to run the advertisement
for four days.

Thompson left her in comfortable circum
stances. She received two pieces of prop
erty on the lower West Side, and al«o drew
a pension of Ei". a month, which she lost
when she married her present husband.
Mrs. Whitaker complained that after
Whitaker had drawn about SIS.OOO from In
vestments that she made for him ho
abused iior and finally deserted her, de
claring that she had tried to poison mm
She said that after searching for him a
long time -he found him and h«« took her
to the office of a lawyer, where she was
induced to sign a paper winch the plain
tiff says she understood was a reconcilia
tion, but turned out to be a separation

BROWNE ON THE STAND
Denies That He Paid Lorimer
to Legislators.
BUT WONi'T SAY THEY LIED
— ' ™ . V
Admits, However, That He Dis
cussed Democratic Votes
with the Senator.
Cnirago, Oct. «.-For the first time under ,
oath. lie O'Nell Browne. Democratic m - |
nority leader of the lower house of the II- ,
linois Legislature, told his story; ofi Uie elec
tion of United States Senator William Lon- j
mer to-day to the Senatorial investigating
committee. Browne was tried twice on a
charge of bribing Representative Charles A.
White 'to vote for Mr. primer, but did not ,
testify in his own behalf. The first trial
resulted In a disagreement and the second
in acaulttal. He is still to stand trial at
Springfield on an indictment making simt
la- charges. He entered a sweeping denial
to-day of any wrongdoing in connection
with the election.
Browne testified that he saw Senator
Lorimer and Speaker Shurtleft frequently
after having decided to support the former ,
and that he talked to many Democratic j
Representatives, including White. Becke- ;
merer Shephard. Link and Clark, all or I
whom have testified before the Senatorial ;
committee.
"I told Mr Lor-mer." said Browne, "that,
: according to my best Information, there
would be thirty Browne Democrats who |
would vote for him. This was on May 3*.
or possibly the latter part of the preceding
week." Browne said that he did not person
ally se« all the members of his faction
about their votes. He testified that he kept
several lists of Democratic Representatives
whom he expected to vote for Lorimer. He
read a list of thirty names to the com
i mittee.
Browne said that he was in St. Louis on
June 21. 1903. on which date several wit
nesses have said packages of money con
taining ttJM were handed to them by
him. He said that he met Representa
, tives Henry A. Shephard. Michael Link. H.
' J. C. Beckemeyer and Charles Luke In the
i Southern Hotel at St. Louis. He declared
that he did not tell Representative White
that fee. was going there.
His purpose in going to St. Louis, he said,
i was to confer with the Representatives
j named on state patronage for Democrats.
' am at that time Governor C. S. Deneen was
! taking up that question. Later he talked
! with, the Governor on the same subject.
Browne flatly denied that ha had giren
| Link or Beckerceyer any money In the
; Southern Hotel at St. Louis, as testified to
j by them.
If Beckernever said you gave Him SLOOO
that day, he lied, did he?" asked Mr. Aus
j trian, of the prosecution.
"No. I wouldn't say that." said Browne.
"If I had teen throush what Beckemeyer
went through, with an indictment held over
my head. I might have said what he said.
I would not want to say h<* lied."
"Did you give Link any money on Jure
21. 1T<09,.m St. Louis "*"
"No."
If he says you did he lies. doe* he?"
"I wouldn't say so." said Browne. "If I
had been through what 'Mike' Link went
through, and had been threatened in the
State's Attorney's office as he was threat
ened, I might have fallen for it. I couldn't
say he lied."

INDETERMINATE SENTENCE '
Favored by Prison Congress, Eu
ropean Delegates Yielding.
Washington. Oct. •>.— After opposing for
thirty years the efforts of American crim
inologista to induce the International Pris
on Congress to indorse the principle of the
indeterminate sentence, the European mem- .
bers of the congress yielded to-day, and \
resolutions advocating this system were j
adopted.
The resolutions declare that the indeter
minate sentence should lie applied to the
mentally and morally defective, and "as
an important part of the reformatory sys
tem to criminals, particularly young delin
quents, who require reformation and whose
offences are due mainly to circumstances
