According to James E. an old-time racing man, who has reached New York, the American jockeys and bookmakers who have been expelled from the turf in Franco are being made scapegoats for a lot of swindling touts. These touts, Mr. Kelly says, fleeced somo Americans, many Englishmen and very few Frenchmen. "Their sch-eme," said Mr.

Kelly, "was quito simple, and had none of the extensive ramifications which French detectives claim to have unearthed. They worked In pairs. A big man would pose as a trainer and a small confederate as a jockey. When they had selected their 'mark tho two would proceed to talk in his hearing about the race that 'had been, If their 'mark' exhibited the proper amount of interest they would shy away, and if he followed them up they would offer to let him in when he had put up his share of the 'salting If ht put up, that was the last of his money. American jockeys and their methods were the talk of Paris and of all (he continent, for that matter, and visiting Englishmen and Americans wero enslly taken in by the swindlers.

Some of those who were fleeced reported their losses to the police, and whon we begaji to near tho talk about fixed races and pulled horses. "Neither Rose nor Korn, the American jockeys, had anything in common with these touts, and I cannot see how the Frenchmen are going to be able to make any sort of a cas-e against real swindlers got away unscathed, of course." A. S. Martin, another horseman who came from Paris, and who is on hjs way to San Francisco, expressed a somewhat different opinion. "American jockeys and American methods have earned success abroad." said he.

S. Special. Frankfort's only poolroom closed Its doors to-day at the conclusion of to-day'3 races. The room was operated In the rear of the saloon of Coleman McKeever, on St. Clair street.

The closing was in anticipation of tho adoption of an ordinance Introduced In tho City Council several weeks ago declaring poolrooms to be a nuisance and imposing a fine of 510 a day for their operation. Tho ordinance will be adopted and the closing is probably permanent- Frank fort hn3 been experiencing a mild moral wave since tho September term of the Franklin Circuit Court, at which a fine of 5S50 was Imposed against the city for suffering a nuisance in permitting tho running of a disorderly saloon.

SALEM DEFEATED BY HIGH SCHOOL The Hoosler Team Is Outclassed By the Fur-pie Eleven. VISITORS ARE VERY HEAVY. Thixtou and "Wilson Play the Football For the Local Boys.

END RTJNS THE FEATURE. BOUT S00 people went out to tho High School athletic fleld yesterday to see the gamo between tho Purples and the Salem, elev en. A large proportion of the crowd consisted of women, with their decorations of purple and gold, while an occasional flutter of red marked soma ardent Manual sympathizer. The gamo was won by tho High School team by tho score of 20 to 0. There were four touchdowns, but no goals were kicked.

The visitors seemed outclassed, and the wearers of the purple considered that thoy had won a fine victory. The visitors had their friends, but their colors, black and gold, were lost In tho profusion of purple banners and streamers of gold. At 3 o'clock tho Hoosiers trotted out on tho field a husky, sturdy set of fellows. It looked more like a college team, and some, no doubt, thought that the Kentucky State boys had missed their destination. The High School sympathizers wero dumb as they contemplated the stalwart moleskin warriors, and thought of little Roe and "Goody" O'Neal.

Tho Indlanians must have weighed between ten and fifteen pounds more to the man than their opponents. After a little delay In settling prelim inaries and choosing officials, the teams lined up at 3:15 o'clock. The Klgh Schools guarded the west goal. Details of the Play. Capt.

Davis kicked off for forty yards Capt Thixton, wno skillfully followed "his interference and eluded his would-be xaptors till the central tape was again crossed. The first scrimmage, and Capt. Txixton went through on a straight buck for a stretch, Balfour was sent around left end by four yards. O'Neal carried the leather around right for five yards. Thixton tried left end for five yards, "Wilson went around right for four yards.

Wheeler failed to make good, "Wilson gained five yards by bucking the tackles. Balfour gained three" yards around left end. Thixton was pushed through a hole In Salem's lino for five yards. "Wilson took as much. Thixton carried the pigskin another stretch.

"Wilson crossed two tapes before he was downed within the five-yard Une. Salem was offside eight. The ball was advanced half the distance to the goal line. Capt. Thixton again carried it across the final line lust seven minutes after the first whistle blew.

The goal was missed and the score stood 5 to 0 in the purple's favor. The Indiana captain kicked off to Capt. Thixton, who by clever dodging again regained all- the lost territory. High School lost on a fumble, and Salem had her Inning. Capt.

Davis gained four yards. Cauble for five yards, but was downed by Wheeler. The ball was carried forward Vapidly by the sturdy visitors and Martin crossed two tapes and Davis broke through the line and went down the field for three more, when he was cleverly prostrated by O'Neal. Salem fumbled and Wilson covered it Thixton kicked, but the ball was returned to the halfway chalk. Salem tried in vain for tho coveted five yards, and the ball changed sides.

O'Neal Hakes a Good Run. O'Neal made a brilliant run of thirty yards, skillfully eluding his pursurers before he was thrown. Thixton, Wheeler and Wilson each made good gains, cutting down the distance to the goal line. Balfour went around the left end for the requisite number of yards. Thixton found a hole and plunged through for a good grain.

Wilson followed suite and netted several yards. Wehl-a succeeded Wells at center. The ball was fumbled near the goal line, but a purple jacket fell on It and Wheeler was pushed across. It seemed an off day for Capt Thixton's goal kicking leg, and the score stood 10 to 0 in the locaie' favor. Salem kicked to Roe, who regained all but ten yards of the kick.

Capt. Thixton punted to Cauble, who made a good return. J. Martin advanced the leather four yards. M.

Martin tried left end for an equal number. Capt Davis was pushed through an opening foi- threo yards. M. Martin made an equal gain. Loft end was tried for six yards.

Nov. S. Special.J For the first time In years the final outcome of the football situation will this year bo able to be determined definitely. Early practice Erames were uniformly successful for Yale, Harvard. Princeton and Columbia.

Cornell suffered defeat at the hands of Carlisle, and Pennsylvania succumbed to Brown and the Annapolis Naval Cadets. In the opening of the big- fame season the situation was cleared still more by Princeton's defeat of Columbia and Cornell, and by Penn's defeat of Columbia. Only three leaders are left now to battle for the undisputed intercollegiate championship of the East. Yale meets Princeton on Saturday. November 15.

and Harvard meets Yale on Saturday. November 2. The outcome of these games will fix the honors for 1102. Harvard, In spite of a few' drawbacks. Is In the lead to date.

Last week It was Yale, but the unfortunate slump taken by the blue team at West Point and Harvard's brilliant victory by 23 to 0 over the strong Indian team, which defeated Cornell, have changed the situation materially. Brilliant running, dodging and team work in interference gave the game Jo Harvard. The line is yet weak on the defense. Jones, the left end. is out of the game through injuries, and the great problem Is to find his successor.

But with the wealth of material at Cambridge, this should not be a difficult task. The Indians could and did gain ground, but their chances for scoring were spoiled by fumbling, once on the sixteen-yard line and once on the eighteen-yard line. In each case the Indian plays aimed outside of tackle were working havoc with Harvard's defenFe, and had It not been for losing the ball the Indians might have ecored. Harvard Plays Good Ball. But the Harvard team played magnificent football, and caused the Indians to EO up In the air at the very beginning of the game, with the result that not once during the game were they able to recover themselves and play the kind of which defeated Cornell.

Harvard's great strength lies in her backs. They are not only big and fast, but are clever in eluding tackles. Princeton Is in fair condition. She carries three or four cripples as a result of the Princeton-Columbia game, and this militated against fast work In her recent tratr.o with Cornell. The Tigers' game against Cornell afforded a rather poor exhibition of football for a championship contest.

It was a one-man victorv. due to the splendid Eoal kicking of DaWitt- Princeton's much-heralded ends, on whom a good deal of the Tigers' reliance for success this season has been placed, failed almost cn-tlrelv to live up to expectations, and for good part of tho gamo were outplayed bv their Cornell opponents. The Nassau men constantly overran their man and missed their tackles. Tho Tiger attack was listless. It is very unlikely that Frinceton's light attack will be able to make much Impression on Yale's heavy line.

If Ell's eleven has not been mar-vclouslv overrated. It is difficult to see how Princeton will have a chance to win, unlcs-3 DeWitt's goal kicking should prove an unexpectedly telling factor. Yale Men Are Not Sure. Tale, having had her colors lowered by the "West Point cadets, is not so cock-cure of winning the championship as had been thought a week or two ago. Tale's chowing against "West Foint is not such as to cause any unbounded satisfaction I at New Haven.

Comparative- scores in football form a very fallacious basis for reasoning, but sometimes they show which way the wind blows. It Is of Interest, therefore, to note that two weeks ao Harvard defeated West Point by 14 to 6. Against West Point, that fault of slowness which is usually the bane of a heavv team, was conspicuous In Yale's play. "Ell's interference Is not much to boast of, and lack of this prevented more effective gains by tho backs. Many members of Yale's much-heralded line found that thev more than had their hands full in trikinc- care of their cadet oppo Goss was particularly weak, and Ehevltn let a good many gams get arounu him that a better end should have i stopped.

Yale's tackles, too, proved vuJ- I nerable against the strenuous rushes of the We.n ralnt backs. Pennsv'vanla. after being severely beat- AND MARKET -O en by Brown and the naval cadets, sud-denlv took a spurt forward long enough to boat Columbia. But the work of tho team in that gamo was so erratic as not to give the Quakers much hope of ending their season in triumph. The manner in which the Quakers played on the offensive and the fierce team play which nt times they injected Into their rushing game was something which, judging from past performances during the season, the Red and Blue supporters would scarcely have deemed possible before tho game.

Columbiaa defense was strong, and for a while at the start of the same Pennsylvania, worked hard to advance the ball, but was baffled. Bennett was obliged to try a field goal when within striking distance of Columbia goal On tho whole, Columbia's weakness, as much as Penn's strength, won tho game. Columbia's Hard luck. It Is unfortunate for Columbia that only results count in football, for Columbia had an amazing array of legitimate hard luck Incidents to account satisfactorily for her defeat. Thorpe, her star tackle, was out of the gome because of an abscess.

Smith, the big 197-pound back, was so badly injured when he began to play that sheer physical incapacity compelled him soon to retire. Duden had the misfortune to be ruled out of tha game for slugging, an offense common oi the grid-Iron, but seldom punished, and Capt. Weekes' ankle was so tender that never once did he get a chance to show his real ability. "Weekes, by the way. played tho game of his life, and six times by magnificent tackling prevented what seemed certain Quaker scores.

Weekes, however, had little support, and every time he had an opportunity for a good run he had to go it alone, with consequent disaster. If Columbia had played Pennsylvania with tho same team that met Princeton It is reasonable to suppose that there might have been a different story to tell. In the Tiger game the Columbia eleven had its full strength, but against Pennsylvania the substitutes failed to do half what was expected of them. The eleven, though its season of big games has been disastrous, and its future Is not encour-againg, has the satisfaction of knowing that it has splendid support from the students. Cornell, although Its showing ngalnst Princeton was scarcely brilliant, appears to have little reason to worry over tho outcome of its second and last big game of the season with Pennsylvania, at Philadelphia on Thanksgiving day.

Cornell has an excellent pair of ends, a good, strong attack, able punting and an excellent line, qualities which should wrest victory from Pennsylvania without great difficulty. The Cadets Are Favorites. West Point's tie game with Yale, 6-G, of course makes her favorite for the coming game with Annapolis at Philadelphia on November 23. At West Point, Daly played his first practice game this season as quarterback with the regular team. On W'ednesday, in the hardest practice of the week, the regulars scored one touchdown against the scrubs.

Dalv got the ball In the middle of tho Held and ran. with little interference, to a touchdown. It was a regular old-time Daly run. Daly takes part this afternoon In the first half of the game against Unnon. Tha practice of the Annapolis football team showed somewhat of an Improvement this week.

Rufus S. llanley, halfback of the 'S9 eleven, has arrived, and Is another acquisition to the coaching squad of the Middies. MICHIGAN'S GBEAT SCOBJ3. Western Champions Down Iowa By the Score of 107 To O. Ann Arbor.

Nov. S. Michigan defeated Iowa this afternoon at football on Ferry Field, 107 to 0. It was the fast- t-M iju.it: piiLyeu uiig season oy tne wolverines, and, considering- the speed and strength of the Iowa team, was a remarkable exhibition of team work and endurance. Mich Jean's fast backs and tackles ripped through the Iowa lino at will and went around both the Hawk-eyes' ends.

Magnliicent Interference and long runs made the huge score possible. Sweeley dropped a place kick from Iowa's thirty-five-yard line at the beginning" of the game, and then the Wolverines struck up their speed, getting" ten touchdowns in the first half.
