FRANKLIN. Oct. 5. Franklin College football team defeated the Manual Training High School of Indianapolis today by a score of 12 to 0. While the result was decisive against the Indianapolis their defeat was in no way discouraging, considering the unusual handicap under which they played.

The manager of the Franklin team, in trying to better the condition of Athletic Park for the game to-eiay, had the Held plowed anil harrowed. When the visitors arrived on the grounds It was with difficulty that they were able to walk across to practice without turning their ankles on the large clods of hard clay. Ruts fully one foot deep made it dangerous to run. Several of the players on both sides suffered severe bruises from being hurled on the hard piles of dirt. When the visitors arrived on the field nnd rurveyed the enormous fire of Spurgeon, Tinchor, Hanley and several of the other big men It was enough to cause the little fallow to shudder.

Nevertheless, when thr game ws? called the high school boys started In with such a display of grit and energy that their opponents were taken by surprise. This display of hard work on the part of the visitors was responsible for the Franklin players falling to in the first half. liy arrangement th halves were reduced. The first half was played in twenty minutes and the second in fifteen minutes. This arrangement was made after Captain Kittle had inspected the condition of the Held and the great slzo of the other players.

JACK SHIDELER IN THE GAME. While the M. T. II. S.

boys did not do as well against the collegians this year as they did last, their work to-day was commanded highly. Jack Shldeler was at nil times in the game with his tackling. The bad play attributed to him, and which proved most costly, was in the second half, while he was guarding the end. He collided with Wocdbridge in an effort to stop Webb, who was making an end plaj leaving a rule which that crafty player quickly t' advantage of and ran the entire dis-t of the field and scored a touchdown. Woodbridge played at fuli bark with credit.

Ir the Franklin side Prlfchard and Webb 'rried oft the honors. The latter was a i or.tl in his running over the plowed I. In the two touch-downs he was com-r- Kfd to run tifty yards for goal. In his I run Kaylor followed very closelj', and succeeded in catching Webb on the In 'the second half the M. T.

was quickly secured by Cap-i tin Branlgan. By successive line bucking ir was then forced back for about twenty trds. Pritchard then tried an end play. the Training School boys forced him to nn back twelve yards, where he was Inwr.M bv Krull and Jack Shldeler. In th? early part of the game it was evident that both sides would resort mainly to punting for Its The condition of the fidd made this necessary.

THE SECOND HALF'. Th second half of the game opened with the members of the Training School eleven rreatiy encouraged by their hard work in the first half. The failure of the Franklin boys to score against their lighter opponents made them enter the second half with 'VsCrirr and more resolute determination to score. Time of play In this half was live minutes shorter and playing was rapid. Woodbridge kicked off.

Waiden caught the ball and advanced ten yards, when he was clowned. N. Pritchard attempted several times to make gains around the end. but if remained fr the fleet-footed Webb to perform the task. The left tp.ekle was cjught napping and Webb rushed through nnd was making his way down the field before he; was discovered.

Hranigan kicked goal. The other touchdown was mad'- bv Webb after a hard run from the far end" of the field. This time Shldeler collided with Woodbridgc. affording an opening, 'ind Webb again scored a touchdown and Hranigan kicked goal. Following is the line-up of the teams: Franklin.

Englewood High School won an exciting game this afternoon from Culver Military Academy by a score of 6 to 0. The only touchdown came early In the second half on a series of rushes by the fast backs of. the High School boys, aided materially by the 2K pounds of Maxwell. Several times the cadets rushed the ball up to the ten-yard line, but the High School's heavy line always managed to brace long enough to get the ball. Captain Woodward was compelled to leave the game early in the second half, and his fierce tackling was badly missed.

DISCUSSES THE ROUND ROBIN ALSO THROWS A FEW SHAFTS AT ADMIRAL SAMPSON. CnuMtic AHuhIou to the MIleit-Eifau Con trovers Sharp Attuck on General Miles. NEW YORK, Oct. Alger'3 book on the Spanish-American war, which his publishers state "has been delayed and changed because of the death of President McKinley," will be issued next Thursday. Opening his book with a survey of the Cuban situation in l-SOS General Alger says: "The thoughtful observer of public events during the years lSf5-D7 need hardly be reminded that both the Cleveland and the McKinley administrations sought by every honorable means to avoid complications with Spain through protesting against the conditions prevalent in Cuba." He thtn comments upon our unprepared-ness for war at that time and the splendid spectacle of the country's response to the government's Ultimatum to Spain.

He then leads the reader through the hurried preparations for war, its embarrassments and difficulties, the persecution of the office-seeker, the disappointment of hundreds of volunteers, the demands of seacoast cities and towns for immediate and Impossible protection and the savage criticism of the military administration's plans of campaign and the battle with the apparently endless list of shortcomings and grievances. Then follow the plans of campaign, the embarkation at Tampa, which was severely criticised at the time, but which General Alger is now convinced, all things considered, was not a mistake. The account of the march on Santiago is graphically pictured and prepares one for the tights at Caney and San Juan. The "iound robin" incident tomes in for a fair share of space. While the negotiations for surrenuer were pending before Sintlago the general officers of Shafter's army met and signed, a round robin, which was given out for publication.

This paper showed great alarm over the threatened coming of yelloxv and enteric fevers, anil went on to say: "This army must be moved at once or it will perish." Of the round robin itself General Alger says ho has no criticism to offer. Hut he dots criticise the publication of it. saying that it was one. the most unfortunate i.nd grettable Incidents of the war. General Alger reviews at length the difficulties between General Shafter and Admiral Sampson, and quotes many official letters.

He concludes this chapter in these words: "It is as difficult to account for Admiral Sampson's seeming attitude toward the. army before the operations before Santiago as to excuse him for his contradictory statements subsequently made in his official report. After the od of July the admiral's conduct may have been due to his keen disappointment resulting from his nonpartieipation in the engagement with Cervera's squadron. Possibly he felt that Shafter's request for a conference on the morning of July innocent though it was. was responsible for his being deprived of the honor of actively participating as commander-in-chief in one of the most remarkable victories in the annals of naval warfare." Considerable space is devoted to what he calls the "Miles-Egan controversy" in the commissariat investigation, in the course of which he sifys: "General Miles seemed to be pleased with the notoriety which his startling statement before the commission and his subsequent newspaper interview gave him: for again, on the 31t of March.

in New York city, he published, through representatives of the Associated Press and of a metropolitan paper, additional charges. This unmilitary and questionable method of making in pub-lie grave and scandalous charges regarding a brother officer and the work of his departmentcharges which subsequent and careful investigation proved both unwarranted ami untrue seemed to appeal to certain characteristics of the major general commanding to which reference here would be out of place. "If we are to believe written evidence to the contrary, it lots not appear that (Jen. Miles was even honest in making his dilatory charges that the tinned beef was issued as the "pretense of an experiment," and that it was not a part of the ration. On the 17th of June.

lv.w, his most confidential staff officer signed a letter "by direction of the major general commanding the army," instructing the depot commissary at Tampa to furnish to General Nunez 10.611 pounds of canned roast beef, to be issued from the "subsistence stores of the army." If we are to accept the reading of this letter as correct, it proves that General Miles knew that canned fresh beef was a xrt of the ration; that he knew there was a large quantity of it at Tampa for issue to the and that he so far approved of its use as to direct that the ration be furnished in large quantities to our allies." JOINT SMASHERS LIABLE. Kniins Supreme Court Renders Decision Aftalnnt a Crusader. TOPEKA. Oct. 3.

The Kansas Supreme Court to-day. In an opinion written by Justice Smith, affirmed the judgment of the District Court of Shawnee county in the case of the State against Ralfe Stark, who was one of Carrie Nation's assistants in joint smashing. The court held that "all places where Intoxicating liquors are sold, or kCDt for ale, or places where persona are permitted to resort for the purpose of drinking the same, are declared by statute to be common nuisances, but this fact does not Justify their abatement without process of law, and the destruction or injury to property used in and for maintenance of such nuisances, except in the manner provided by the State, is a trespass."

BEISTAND PRODS HAWKES SAYS THE Ii ATTER WAS "WHIMPERING" ON ONE OCCASION. The Major Calls the Colonel a Liar and Is Relinked by Senator Cockrcll No Important Evidence. WASHINGTON, Oct. IL Allen, former assistant secretary of the navy and later Governor of Porto Rico, was a witness to-day before the Senate military affairs committee in the Heistand investigation. He declared in the most emphatic manner that he never had had any connection with the proposed hemp Company.

Ho added that he had not taken and had not been asked to tako any stock in such company or combination. He also asserted that in no circumstances would he have taken stock or engaged In such business. This testimony contradicted that of Colonel Heistand, who had said that he (Heistand) had approached Assistant Secretary Allen and asked him to take stock and that Allen said he would if it wej-e all right. Governor Allen said that he had no recollection whatever of such conversation with Heistand on that subject. Governor AIln said that his first recollection of the proposed hemp combination was a telephone message to the effect that Ids name was being used in New York in conufction with it.

Investigation showed that Hawkes was using his name upon authority of Colonel Heistand. Governor, Allen at once went to see General Corbin. Heistand was sent for and General Corbin said: "Heistand. your man Hawkes is using Secretary Allen's name In connection with that hemp company. You must call him off." Heistand replied that would do so at once.

Mr. Allen said he next heard of the matter when Hawkes came to him and said he wanted a settlement of his claim. He told Hawkes he had nothing whatever to do with the concern and never had, and after a brief conversation Hawkes had expressed the same opinion, but asserted that Heistand had told him that witness was in it. He again saw Corbin. who said Hawkes had been to see him also with the same claim.

General Corbin had told him he had nothing to do with the concern. Lieutenant Colonel Heistand was then recalled and cross-examined by Major Hawkes regarding certain conversations between them. Replying to one query Heistand remarked that Hawkes was "whimpering." Hawkes demanded in an excited manner: "Did you ever see me whimper?" "I did." answered Colonel Heistand. "You lie," shouted Major Hawkes. Senator Cockrell rebuked Hawkes and tleclared that no such language was permissible.

Nothing of Importance was developed bv the crost-examination of Colonel Heistand. At its conclusion the committee adjourned until Monday. RAN INTO OPEN SWITCH. Two 31eu Instnntly Killed and Another Radly Hurt. KNOXVILLE.

Prior to the Republican Rally an Enjoyable Vaudeville Programme Was Given.

SENATOR FAIRBANKS HEARD AN ADDRESS THAT APPEALED STRONGLY TO HIS AUDITORS. Capt. William E. English One of the Orators Speeches Made at Columbia Hall. The rally and smoker given by the Marion Club last night more than justified the well-known reputation of the members for ability to do things well.

The "smoker" part of the evening was continuous, but the remainder of the programme was divided into two parts, the first made up of a number of clever vaudeville acts and the last of some three or four excellent political addresses. The spacious room used ordinarily for bowling alley, but last night for the rally, was crowded to suffocation. The audience enjoyed" the vaudeville bill so thoroughly that it remained almost to a man for the second portion of the exercises, and when the last speech was made the sentiment was unanimous that the best had been reserved for the last. The specialty part of the programme consisted of songs and picturesque dancing by "Little Friday" and the tiny Misses Whitehead and Henley; coon songs sung with fine effect by Miss Emma Messing, imitations by Stanton Wilhitc in his best style, an exhibition of facility in playing several musical instruments by E. M.

Bonnell, some catchy campaign songs by Harry Tutewiler, and the recitation, "Old Glory" (Riley), given by Harry Webber with fine dramatic fervor, enhanced by the clever use of a flag. Perhaps one explanation of the remarkable success of the event was the seeming spontaneity of the speeches. Chairman Leathers cast his eyes over the crowd when the time for the addresses came, and caught sight of John L. Griffiths. Accordingly, Mr.

Griffiths was the first orator of the evening. He set the audience to roaring with laughter by suggesting with utmost gravity that since there had been a vaudeville programme Mr. Taggart should have been invited to do a stunt, as he has considerable reputation as a master of sleight-of-hand, "when wc consider the agile manner in which he has handled the city's funds the past six years," added Mr. Griffiths facetiously. The speaker completely refuted the argument of beautiful streets and pretty parks so frequently heard from Democratic orators, and then proceeded to review Mr.

Taggart's wonderful administrations. After showing the importance of defeating Maguire and Taggartism, Mr. Griffiths said: "A Republican who is able to go to the polls next Tuesday and does not do so should be shunned by all good men because he is not a desirable citizen." This sentiment was greeted with an outburst of hearty applause. "The issues in this campaign," declared Mr. Griffiths, are important enough to Insure the co-operation of all earnest-minded, good-minded, broad-ndnded citizens to redeem this city from Democratic misrule and place it once more where it rightfully belongs, under conservative business administration.

Civic conscience is appealed to and the courage of the people should declare itself and say that we are determined from henceforth to have a voice in the management of our own affairs." SENATOR FAIRBANKS CALLED. When the applause that almost drowned the closing words of. Mr. Grifflths's speech died away the tall form of Senator Fairbanks was observed in the rear of the hall, and cries of "Fairbanks!" "Fairbanks!" came thick and fast. The senator at once responded to the demand and made hi3 way through the packed aisles to the platform.

He was given a genuine ovation apd the pleasure this gave him was clearlv manlfest in his eloquent address. Senator Fairbanks spoke as follows: "Mr. Chairman and Fellow-citizens: I have not come for the purpose of making to you a formal or an extended speech There is no need that I should, for there is on every hand the most abundant assurance that the next mayor of Indianapolis is to be Charles A. Bookwalter. (Great applause.

"There is no officer to be chosen by the citizens of Indianapolis more Important than mayor. It is of the utmost importance that the man selected for the mavoraity should be a man of ability, a man of fidelity, a man of courage. Having known Mr. Bookwalter for many years, I can say to you whRt most of you know, that Mr. Bockwalter possesses all of these qualities in an eminent degree.

Applause. lie has made hi3 own way In the world. He is today at the head of an Important manufacturing enterprise largelj- his own creation. "As citizens of Indianapolis we have a just and natural pride in her honor, in her progress, in her prosperity. We have an interest in her good name.

My friends, in the prestnt posture of affairs it is Important, more important than ever, that we should have good laws and should have officials capable of 'executing them as they are written upon our statute. "The events through which we have recently passed have taught the American people a higher respect for law than they ever had bfore. Applause.) The hour has come when every liberty-loving, order-loving, law-loving patriot of Indianapolis and of the country at large should rally to the standard of that party which stands for law and order under all circumstances. Great applause. I do not charge any party In Indianapolis with having any sympathy with anarchy ur Anarchists-no, far from it; but I cannot Page.

Prolonged applause and cheers. HOUR FOR DEBATE PASSED. "My friends, the hour for debate has passed.

It remains for you and others to do your full duty. While, as I said at the beginning, the election of Mr. Book-waiter is assured, that assurance rests upon the assumption that we will all do our full duty. We have on every hand the assurance this year that the ballots as cast will be counted and the experience of two years ago will not be again repeated. Applause.

"As I said before, I came not to make a speech, but rather by my presence to testify as a citizen of Indianapolis, proud of our past and confident of our my interest in this campaign. "We are, my friends, in Republican times. Wc have good national administration, good ttate and we must have good Republican administration in the city of Indianapolis to go with them. IGreat applause. "As I said before, we are interested in good order, we are interested in an orderly administration of the affairs of this great city, and I believe that by the election of Mr.

Bookwalter we will insure them. He knows enough to know that his success as mayor will depend upon the character of the men he shall choose for the several boards providctl by our charter, and he knows enough to know that the best men who will consent to serve upon those boards must be appointed because the people of the city will demand it. and he will himself see that the demand of the people-is gratified in that respect. "Members of tlie Marion Club, this is the first oportufiity I have had to meet with you. and I wish to say that it is fortunate for the Republican party of Marion county, it is fortunate for the city of Indianapolis, that there is a club with the fire, the vigor, the push and the patriotism of the Marion Club.

Great applause. "On Tuesday night. I have faith to believe, the standard of Democracy in Indianapolis will go down, and triumphant will rise the standard of Republicanism applausej, and 1 thank yoo all." Long-continued applause and cheers. MR. OVERSTREET GREETED.

The greeting given Representative Over-street was no less cordial than that accorded his predecessor. Mr. Overstreet was In excellent form and delivered just the kind of talk that appealed to the intelligent audience before him. He said: "Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen I was ir.

hopes that I had successfully hidden myself away, but 1 am afraid your chairman, with his keen eye, was able to see where 1 thought he could not. I hae been ld to believe that this meeting had been called in erder to line up the Marion Club for the Republican ticket. Laughter. I hav" known that club since its creation, and it is tho first instance that it has been suggested that it needed lining up in order to vote the full ticket. I want to congratulate the club upon the promptness and completeness with which it has lined up tonight, and believe that whn the polls are closed on Tuesday night it will be found that this club, which has always ben, as your splendid senator has said, patriotic and energetic, will be true to its traditions and prove itself the gamecock of Republican clubs in the Strife of Indiana and every member of it will record his vote for Charley Bookwalter and the full ticket.

Great applause and cries of "We will." "I think little is now left to be done after all has been said for the past few weeks than to move to make this election unanimous, and why should it not be unanimous? For what purpose- have the people of Indianapolis been asked to vote on next Tuesday? We have had out an administration led by Mr. Tap gart through six years in which they have -onsist-ntiy and persistently piled up th1 public debt until it has reached the constitutional limitation. We have seen th public contracts treated as private snps und th franchises of this metropolis, which should have been the assets of the city, treated as the spending money and thn pocket pieces, of the friends of the administration. MEN WORTHY OF CONFIDENCE. "The Republican party has always put forward for public office nr-n in whom they at least have had confideace in carrying out the principles of that party.

That party's principles mean fcoiomy in the expenditure of the public money; they rrean open, fair competition in tho letting of public contracts; they mean honesty in the administration of all the public affairs. As Mr. Fairbanks and your other speakers have plainly pointed out, the cord of that rarty in the state, county, township atid government has been that thee principles have beer carefully considered and successfully practiced. Through six years the Democratic party, through Mr. Taggart.

has done quite the contrary, and to-night we are confronted with the anomalous situation that, having found other business enterprises more fcuitable to his taste, lie finds it necessary to place a ward in the mayor's chair for whom he has himself appointeel as guardian. Laughter. "The people of Indianapolis need no protector. of that degiee. but it is the purpose of you men, having given your best thought and energy to the prosecution of a decent, clean, honorable campaign, to carry forward on Tuesday your ballots with such force as shall bury the Taggartism of Indianapolis forever and forever.

Applause. "I have seen within the pist twelve months indications in other citb-s than Indianapolis to turn away from lie practice of turning over the city administration to the Democrats, while they give Republicans control in the county und State. In the great city of New York there has sprung up the mot compact and most organization In American politico, known as the Tammany organization. Over it has been placed Mr. Croker.

of world-wide fame, as manager of its affairs for iiersonal ends. Mr. Seth Low, one of America's and purest citizens, has for some years been 'endeavoring to break down that system which has so inimical to the interests of the city of New York.
