The most important same of the Western football schedule for today Will be played by the Minnesota and Illinois teams on Northrop field this afternoon. Wisconsin and Michigan play this afternoon, but their games are with minor teams, and the West ern football world impatiently awaits the result of the clash between the Gophers and the Illini. The football world of the West is interested, for on this game hangs the future of the 1902 Gophers. Minnesota has claimed the right to be recognized as one of the possible winners of the Western championship, and she must win the game this afternoon to make good her claim. If the Gophers lose they are out of the running as far as the championship is concerned. The Minnesota rooters are confident that their team will win, so confident that they were offering 2 and even 3 to 1 on the Gophers yesterday afternoon. The lowa and Grinnell games are responsible for this enthusiasm on the part of the Maroon and Gold support ers, but the wins from lowa and Grin nell are not enough for the cold-blood ed critics. They are waiting for the final score this afternoon. The critics are right. lowa was defeat ed by a good-sized score, but lowa has shown as a weak team since the season started. It is the same with the Grin nell score, but with the Illini it is differ ent. Ahead of Chicago. If football dope is worth anything, a good win from Illinois this afternoon brings Minnesota out as the most dan gerous team in Michigan's path. The University of Chicago team has been mentioned by many of the critics as the team with a chance to stop Michigan and Wisconsin, but a score better than 0 to 0 gives Minnesota place ahead of Chicago. The Illini met Chicago and played the Maroons almost to a standstill. Stagg's men won by the score 'J to 0, but their only touchdown started on a fumble. Per kins, the Maroon fullback, got the ball and ran thirty yards to the goal line. And Minnesota is to meet this same team this afternoon. Illinois has one of the strongest teams in its history, and the Gophers have real trouble cut out for their share of the afternoon's work. The Illinois squad, eighteen players and Coach Holt, Assistant Coach Mattis, Trainer Connibear and Manager Huff, reached Minneapolis yesterday morning and registered at the West hotel. The team looks to an ounce as heavy as the Gophers, and every player expressed him self confident of winning. According to Coach Holt, the team will average 169 pounds. Manager Huff placed the figure at 172 pounds. Manager Huff declared that his team expected to win and should win. Coach Holt, while hopeful, insisted that the condition of a few of his men might make it harder to finish first. According to the coach, one of the ends has a bad ankle, and Halfback Pitts is far from being in jrood condition. Despite all this, the Champaign coach declares that- with a dry field the Gophers will have to do clever work to keep his team from scor ing. Rooters Are Confident. The rooters are willing to admit that the game will be a hard one for the ma roon and gold, but the feeling is almost general that the Gophers will triumph. .The men realize the value of this game. and if Minnesota goes down the blame cannot be laid to overconfidence. Members xtt both teams took life easy yesterday. The Illinois coaches took their men for a long walk and ended the day's work with a light signal practice.

LONDON, Nov. 7.—Referring to the possibility of Cornell university sending a crew to compete at the Henley regatta next year, the Daily Telegraph this morn ing says: "Cornell will be warmly welcomed at Henley, but the crew would be well ad vised not to allow the prominence to their professional coach, Mr. Courtney, which he enjoyed upon the occasion of his last visit. Mr. Courtney's attitude toward the Lean'der club has not been forgotten, and it need not be forgiven. Nobody at Henley wishes to have anything to do with his methods of management. Cor nell's captain can do all that is required, and everyone will wish him the best of luck." FOUL SAVES DAVE SULLIVAN. Referee Claims Briggs Hit New Yorker in the Stomach. BOSTON, Mass., Nov. 7. —Dave Sullivan, of New York, was awarded the decision on a foul over Jimmy Briggs. of Chelsea' in the eighth round before the Criterion Athletic club tonight, and the boxing wound up on the verge of a free fight, in which most of the spectators were jostling Dan Donnelley, the referee, and Sullivan. Briggs had all the batter of the match, repeatedly staggering Sullivan with punches in the jaw. In the sixth and seventh rounds Sullivan had to clinch to save himself.- In the eighth Briggs landed blows at will, and after one to the stomnt-h Sullivan doubled up, claiming he was fouled. He staggered to his corner and s-at down. Before a decision was giv en Sullivan rushed back and resumed the fight.

TO BE DIFFERENT. Changes Said to Be due to an Accidental Discovery. GLASGOW, Nov. 7.—ln the Shamrock 111. will be embodied some radical de partures in the matter of yacht construc tion which did not appear in any previous challenges. These changes are said to b§, due to an accidental discovery made dur ing the trials of the Shamrock I. and the Shamrock EL, which convinced Designer Watson that there had been a funda mental error in the construction of all the recent challengers. This discovery was made too late to admit of the remod eling of the Shamrock 11., but when its nature was explained to Sir Thomas Lip ton it had great weight in deciding him to try for the America's cup a third time. Both Designers Fife and Watson are convinced that they possess solid data upon which they will be able to build a yacht superior to any previous cup racer. They are certain that they have evolved an idea which affects the whole theory of the propulsion of sailing yachts. MORAN KNOCKS OUT FARREN. Baltimore Boy Takes the Count In the Fourth Round. BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 7.—Tony Mo ran (109), of Philadelphia, knocked out Jimmie Farren (108), of this city, tonight in the fourth round of their twenty-round bout here. From the call of time Far ren forced the fighting, but none of his blows told on the sturdy little Philadel phian, who awaited an opening and land ed a right swing on the point of Farren's jaw after two minutes and forty-five sec onds of fighting in the fourth round. Far ren seemed to be strong when the final blow reached him. He was carried from the ring by his seconds, but recovered in a few minutes. Too Muddy for Cresceus. ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 7.—The bad con dition of the track today at Piedmont Park prevented anything like a record be tween Cresceus and Bobby Walthour.

DEATH DUE TO BROKEN SKULL, NOT EPILEPSY Dr. Rothrock Makes a Startling Discovery in the Case of Miss Mac Moore. . The autopsy held on the remains of Mac Moore at the city hospital yester day, revealed the fact that the young woman did not die of epilepsy, but from a fracture at the base of her skull. Dr. Rothrock conducted the post mortem ex amination and was surprised to learn of the cause of death. Whether or not the fracture was caused by foul play is unknown, but Mike Kelley, who spent the night with the woman at the Yukon hotel, is held by the police, awaiting further investigation by the po lice and coroner. Mac Moore was taken to the city hos pital early Thursday morning. She was suffering from epileptic fits, having had several during the previous night. Thurs day afternoon, shortly after 4 o'clock, the woman died. It was then thought that epilepsy had caused death. But yesterday, when Dr. Rothrock discovered the frac ture, he at once announced that her de mise resulted from the fractured skull. The question now is whether the wom an's skull was fractured first, bringing on the convulsions, or whether the frac ture was caused by the Moore woman striking her head while suffering from the epileptic fit. Kelley emphatically denied to the po lice and Acting Coroner Whitcomb yes terday that he had any trouble with the woman. He says that she became sick shortly after they went to their room and that during the night had several fits. He also claims that when he met the woman she told him that she was ill. Kelley will be held until the case to thoroughly investigated, although Chief O'Connor places but little credence in the foul play theory. HUSBAND LEAVES HIS FAMILY DESTITUTE Sad Case of Mrs. Inaborg Berglund Comes to Attention of Relief Agent Hutchins. Secretary M. L,. Hutchins, of the St. Paul Relief society, is investigating the case of Mrs. Inaborg Berglund and her five small children, who are in destitute circumstances^ Mrs. Berglund, who lives at 624 East Cook street, says that Jier husband de serted her several months ago. Since then she has tried to support herself and children by working in a Payne avenue restaurant. They are living in two small rooms, and have had barely enough food to exist on. There has been no fire in the home for several days. None of the children, who range from seventeen months to eleven years of age, attend school. Temporary relief was given to the family by Secretary Hutchins. Preparation for Consular Convention. WASHINGTON, D.

REAL WAR IS NOW ON FIGHT FOR CONTROL OF NEXT REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION VAN SANT IS AFER SCALP LOCKS OF CLAPP AND DUNN Governor Did Not Give Up the Hunt for a Seat in the Senate or Purpose of Dictating Selection of Next Gu bernatorial Candidate When His Congressional Carry-all Broke Down. A campaign far more bitter than the state fight just closed is already well under way. The dictatorship of Van Sant and his managers fell through so far as the congressional nominations were concerned, and now the fight for possession of a big machine is on in earnest. Last spring the policy of the con- i servative Republicans who urg-ed that it would be cheaper to renominate and ' re-elect Van Sant and then see him make a peaceful and definite .finish at : the end of two years prevailed. That j policy does not appeal to the genial j governor who sees bigger things in ! politics for himself than the-mere chief | executive of the Bread and Butter state. Immediately after his nomination, his managers began a systematic cam paign for the nomination of selected congressional candidates. The success ful building of a congressional delega tion would put Mr. Van Sant in pos- i session of the entire Republican organ- j ization of Minnesota, and not only per- | mit him to elect himself United States senator, but control the Minnesota del- • egation to the national convention. Chosen Come to Grief. In the Second district, where James i McCleary, otherwise the "Little School- j master," has an eye on Clapp's job, the | genial governor and his managers fail ed to bring out a candidate at the pri maries, and the Fourth district did not look like a fruitful field of operations. Not so in the other districts. Knat vold, in the First; Ives, in the Third; Peterson, in the Fifth; Foster, in the Sixth; Dowling, in the Seventh; Judge William Edson, in the Eighth, and Sen ator Grindeland, in the Ninth congres sional districts, were picked to pull the administration chestnuts out of " the fire and backed to win. That they all fell down is no fault of the administra tion; nor does it relieve the minds of the Fletcher men, who charge Van Sant and his organ in Minneapolis with "Your Uncle Loren's" defeat. Defeat at the primaries damped but did not extinguish the ardor of the statesman from Winona and his man agers. They landed in a few instances in the legislative fights, and now that the state campaign is off their hands they are again on the warpath. Robert C. Dunn and Moses E. Clapp were the objects of the hair-hunting quest Dunn is feared as the leading candi date for gubernatorial nomination in 1904, and Clapp has the seat in the senate that looks so good to Van Sant. Jacobson in Evidence. Jacob F. Jacobson, of whom'a suit able tool was made when Van Sant had legislative chestnuts to pull, now shines as the gentleman selected to make the front in the fight against Dunn. Jacobson could do it with some show of grace, as he is popularly be lieved to cherish a real or fancied grievance against Dunn for the Prince ton man's alleged control of the last convention and the nomination of Samuel G-. Iverson as Dunn's successor. According to his supporters, Jacobson then thought or pretended to think there was something rotten in Den mark, and that Dunn made the fight for Iverson to insure against the ex posures Jacobson wonld make if elect ed and given the much desired chance to go through the auditor's books. Van Sant has some of the fetch and carry kind of friends in the new sen ate, and, though they are comparative ly few, control of the next house would put the key to the senatorial situation in the hands of the genial governor. REAPERS ARE MANY. Speakership of Next House Looks Good to Several Solons. With the election out of the way and almost a closed incident, the mind of the practical politician, or that portion of his legion with a possible change of breaking in, turns to the question of organization of the next legislature. The Thirty-third legislature prom ises to be an interesting body of states men. The Populistic element is wiped out, and the Republican majority in both branches will be so large that the state will again be presented with the spectacle of Republicans fighting Re publicans, instead of a partisan divis ion of the solons. The speakership of the house now holds the center of the stage, and the fight promises to be interesting, if it does not get top heavy before the ques tion comes to a caucus. On the face of the latest returns a clean majority of the re-elected members of the house are candidates for the gavel. Until the combinations that will in the very na ture of things be set up develop, the strength of any or all of them is pure ly problematical. John H. "Bobby" Burns, of Fillmore; James Morley, of Steele; Dr. Babcock, of Wadena; Robert Wells, of Wilkin; L. C. Stevenson, of Hennepin, and Stark, of Chisago, are in the field, each with some showing or claim of sup port. C. S. Schurman, of St. Paul, would have been a candidate had he landed a third term from the Sixth ward, and support generally accred ited to him is now adrift. Schurman is, however, a candidate for second assist ant secretary of the senate and may be able to play a decent trading hand. So far Babcock and Wells seem to hold the leading positions. GRIST OF THE POLITICAL MILL. Eoiler Inspector Johnson and friends yesterday called on the governor of Min nesota. Mr. Johnson early in his official career acquired fame and some ducats by insisting on the inspection of the fire engine boilers and the decision that steam heated houses domiciling a roomer or two are hotels. John L. Gieske, the Democrat who made a fine run for congress in the Fourth district, says he is perfectly satisfied with the showing he made under adverse cir cumstances. Mr. Gteske made a fine per sonal campaign and thoroughly appre ciates the support given him by the com mon people, whose cause he championed. If Van Sant did not promise Fred Schiffmann's berth to George Matchan, Matchan was certainly laboring under a misapprehension at convention time last summer. That telegram of congratulation from President Roosevelt is still overdue at the governor's office. Some one should men tion the oversight to the president. If Col. Trowbridge only had the private telegraph line with which he had half hourly communication with Mllburn house, in working order now, he might get quick service for those delayed congratulations. Schiffmann must go, but he knows it. Several other appointees are slated for the ax and they do not even suspct It. The secret is out. The big majority given Van Sant was simply the peoples emphatic indorsement of the fine work of Sammy Johnson, of the public exam iner's office. According to the latest reports Buck man's majority has reached the plethoric figure of 4,160.
