CHICAGO, Oct. 12. Eleven men from Purdue and an equal number from the University of Chicago swam back and forth In a ninety-flve-yard puddle in Marshall Field here to-day in a drizzling rain, and when, they were through the score was 3 to 5, and every one went home satisfied Purdue because it had eclipsed all past records by tying the score w4th Chicago, Stagg, his men and his supporters because the Maroon team hail come out of an uncertain contest with honors even. Neither coal line was crossed In the first Xialf. The two teams, covered with mud and mire until they were unrecognizable, struggled desperately for a touchdown, with tho contest to the advantage qf Purdue, and only the Impossibility of preventing fumbles kept the men from Lafayette from making th coveted goal.

With Miller and Smith making enormous holes in the Maroon line, Leslie, Russell and Cornell plunged through time and time again for bfg gains, but each time at the critical moment the slippery ball would fall from the players' wet and numb hands and the opportunity was lost. Each time-. Chicago would resort to the punt to place Its goal out danger and the contest would be resumed. Once Russell succeeded in breaking through the Maroon line, and had a clear Held except for Captain Sheldon. The little blonde Maroon made a dash through the mud, and by a desperate dive downed the Purdue half back on the twenty-yard line.

Time was called with the ball well into Chicago's field. Punting was resorted to by both sides at the beginning of the second half, and after i-veral exchanges Chicago got the ball on a fumble on Purdue's thirty-flve-yard line. Then, with a remarkable brace, Stagg's men tore through Purdue's right tackle for gains of three, five and even seven yards. Steadily they worked their way down the field, and finally, by an enormous effort, threw Terkins over the line for a touchdown. Ellsworth kicked out to Sheldon for a fair catch, but the captain failed to hold the ball and Chicago's chance for making ne more point was lost.

After the kick-off Chicago rushed the ball again down into Purdue territory, and seemed destined to core again, but a costly fumble on the thirty-fivc-yard line gave Purdue a chance, which it improved by kicking down into the Maroon territory. After another exchange of punts the teams lined up on Chicago's ten-yard line, with the ball in tho hands of Stagg's men. They carried it back to the twenty-live-yard line and were forced to try a kick. A poor pass and a fumble by Ellsworth gave Purdue the ball. Russell took it, and, aided by splendid interference, he made the only long end run of the day, going clear across the gridiron for a Rain of ten yards.

"With cries of "Touchdown" from the Purdue rooters ringing In their ears, the pigskin was carried slowly but steadily by the Lafayette men down to the four-yard line. A desperate stand was made there by the Maroons, but It was useless. The ball went over In Leslie's hands. Miller tried to make a difficult goal and failed, and the score was 5 to 5. Time was called oon after the ball was put Into play again.

KVANSTON, 111., Oct. 12. Northwestern iefeated Notre Dame University to-day on -heprerd Field In the most brilliant, sensational and exciting game of football ever played at Evanston, the score being 2 to o. Northwestern getting a safety in the lirst half. Although outweighed by many pounds, Notre Dame was able to hold her cwn at all times after Northwestern made her lone safety.

In the second half Notre Dame outplayed the Methodists at every point, and it was only by making a desperate stand during the last fifteen minutes of play that Northwestern kept the South Rend collegians from scoring. Notre Dame, despite the weight of the opposing line, would crash through for big gains, only to lose the ball by a fumble, or because of the great team play of Holllster's men. Winters. Notre Dame's star guard, was out of the game, O'Maley taking his place, and It was through this weakened position that the Evanstonlans made their gains. For Notre Dame.

Fort In. Farragher. Pick, Klrby and Solman played a magnificent game, Solman crashing through for gains of from three to twelvo yards. Lonfgaln, at end, also put up a. clever defense.

North-western's trick plays failed because Notre Dame was too fast, and the game, soon after the opening, settled into straight football. North wt -stern's battering ram, with Ward, Dictz and Davidson, did good work in making gains. To-day was the first time Northwestern has ever defeated Notre Dame, but notwithstanding defeat, Notre Dame demonstrated that it had one of tho best teams in the West. The ball had been in play but a few minutes in the lirst half of the. Kamt when the safety was scored.

The Notro Dame line had been badly battered by Northwestern and the ball was on Notre Dame's ten-yard line. An attempt by Northwestern to make a touchdown failed because of fumbles of the wet and muddy ball. Solman, of Notre Dame, punted, but Johnson, of Northwestern, pulled It down. Solman grabbed tho ball and started for a run behind the line, but was downed by Elliott, of Northwestern, and the safety was scored. The game was played in a pouring rain and on grounds that were deep in mud.

In iha lirst half Illinois steadily worked the ball down the held to Washington's three-yard line, only to be held for downs. Washington kicked out of langer, and here Illinois braced and made two touchdowns in rapid succession.

The second half was very much a repetition of the lirst, Illinois making two touchdowns. Ten Thousand Shouted. MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 12. Ten thousand students shouted themselves hoarse at the game between Minnesota and Nebraska, played on Northrop Field this afternoon.

Company Heelden to Vny Ont netrreen If 100,000 to $500,000 More Annually to Its Men. CHICAGO. Oct. thousand employes of the Illinois Central Railroad, including practically every conductor, brake-man, switchman and yardman, except those in the far South, will receive an Increase In wages within the next month. This was decided on in a conference between the officers of the road and representatives of the Order of Railway Conductors and the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen.

It involves an increase in expenditures on the part of the company amounting to between and annually, the largest single increase in wages granted by any Western road for ten years. According to the new arrangements, all freight conductors will be allowed pay for overtime something that has not been done heretofore. Their hours of work are reduced from twelva to eleven a day and as this does not include a lowering of wages, it means practically an increase of pay. For overtime they are to receive 33 cents an hour. The local brakemen are also to have their hours cut to eleven from the old period of twelve, and for each hour of overtime they are to receive 22 cents.

The difference in wages due to absorbing of "feeders" was felt chiefly In the switch yards, of which there are over 100 throughout the system. The men employed In these yards were getting from to $05 a month. Under the new schedule they will receive from $60 to The foremen will receive a uniform wage of $65 a month and the helpers Jk). The yards that are most affected by this change are those of Freeport, Clinton. 111..

HIDING ON THE FRONTIER MISS STONE'S ABDUCTORS AVI LI AT-, TEMPT TO ELI DE PLHSUEUS. Ready to Flee Into Dnlgnrin or Hide In Turkey, Whichever Course May Become Necessary.

CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct. 12. Since the brigands who abducted Miss Stone were located on the mountain of Gultcp the approach of the troops induced them to change their retreat. They are now hiding on the Turko-Bulgarian frontier, ready to cross to either side as circumstances demand.

The decision to suspend the movement of the troops was partly due to the difficulties of operating in the mountainous country and partly owing to fear that a further advance might endanger the life of Miss Stone, hence the American desire to try and negotiate for the payment of a ransom. It is hoped this will result in the release of Miss Stone in a few days. The officials of the United States legation are much gratified at the Russian action in the matter. The Russian ambassador Is supporting the American demands, and the steps taken by the secretary of the United States legation. Spencer Eddy, in every way possible.

The situation In the case of Miss Stone tonight is that Missionaries Bair and Heskell are still trying to get In touch with the brigands in order to agree on the amount of the ransom. It is scarcely likely that this agreement will be reached for some days. As soon as word comes from tho missionaries that the amount of the ransom has been determined upon, a member of the United States legation will start for the place named with the money. In Turklih Territory. SOFIA, Bulgaria.

Oct. 12. An official communication which has been Issued here indignantly protests against the assertion that the Bulgarian government has been conspiring with the Macedonian committee in regard to the abduction ot Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary. The note points out that nothing is positively known of the composition of the brigand band.

It was undoubtedly formed in Turkey. Miss Stone was cai-tured near Mehomia. a short distance from a Turkish post, and her captors were seen Oct. 9 in the hills between the Turkish villages of Eleschnitra and Jakorunda, ail these facts tending to ehow that she has never left Turkish territory. Size of Fund to Be Kept Secret.

BOSTON, Oct. 12. Kidder, Peabody who are handling the funds for Miss Stone's ransom, said to-day that they would be unable to make public anything concerning the amount of money in their hands, in spite of the new appeal for contributions made last night, owing to r.n understanding with the Cnited States government. In speaking of the ransom to-day, the Rev. Judson Smith said: "In my judgment, the only safe way to act Is to have all the money demanded by the brigands as a ransom on hand in Turkey at the earliest practicable moment." Cattle Drover Arrested.

BERLIN, Oct. 12. According to reports received here from Sofia, the captors of Miss Stone demand that the ransom shall be deposited at Samokoff. Bulgaria. A Bulgarian cattle owner who was an eyewit-nes of tthe kidnaping has been arrested on suspicion of complicity in the outrage at the instance of the L'nited States consul.

All advices received here from Mara-caibo, under date of Od. say the Venezuelan troops are intrenched at various points on the peninsula. A majority of them are in the vicinity of Maracaibo. The conditions at the front are indescribably confused. The Venezuelan soldiers are ravaging as if in an enemy's country.

Being practically without commissariat, they are compelled to live on the country and take possession of everything in sieht. Tbe countryside is rapidly becoming desert d. lesultir.g in a lark of food supplies of any kind and a consequent increase of hunger, distress and suffering among the sol.l'crs. who have no shelter.

This was verified yesterday when ths Manual Training High School team, of Indianapolis, and the Wabash College team, of Crawfordsvllle, met on the submerged gridiron at Newby Oval and battled In a driving rain and in a sea of mud and many ponds of water for supremacy. Tha Manual Training School won by a score of 5 to 2, and their vlctoiy was a very creditable one.

the high school boys excelling the college men in every point of play. Tho Training School secured one touchdown and the Wabash men made two points on a safety through the clever work of Captain Kittle, of the high school team, in permitting the men from Crawfordsvllle to make the two points. All day a driving rain from the west made the weather decidedly Inclement for any kind of outdoor sport. When the time arrived for calling the game there were numerous little ponds of water from two to eight or nine inches deep scattered over the field, and the part that was not submerged was soft and soggy. Owing to the bad weather the crowd was very small, but those who braved tbe weather to witness a football contest were well ierill.

It wji a great game from a spectacular point of view to open the season in India: vn ovr UllllklVJiL. When the members of the two teams arrived the players scanned the gridiron, or rather the numerous small Ingoons on which they were to play, but not one of them showed signs of shirking from the duty of entering th affray to get thir eyes, ears and hair full of mud and drenched to the skin. No on envied the players or even the officials for that matter, who had to follow the team up and down the field through small lakes and deep mud. Referee Hall was in a sorry plight in his low shoes.

In weight the Wabash men were probably a little heavier, but in all other re-eiuirements the Training School boj far surpassed the men from the Presbyterian College. In offensive and defensive work, in tackling, punting, interference, speed and that greatest of all requlrem ids grit the Indianapolis boys showed superiority. They went Into the game from the time he whistle blew announcing play In the first half, determined to make a good showing, and throughout the entire struggle they did not waver In their resolve. There was a great deal of fumbling by both teams, but, considering the slippery condition of the ball, it was surprising that there were not more fumbles. Manual Training School was more successful In recovering fumbles and securing the ball when their opponents fumbled than The only touchdown made during the game, which was credited to Indianapolis, was partly the result of Wabash fumbling the ball and Steel's alertness In securing it and carrying it over the goal line.

The two points credited to Wabash were practically gifts by Ca Kittle, of the Training School team. During the second Laif Wabash rushed the ball to within half a j-ard of Training School's goal, when the Indianapolis boys held the line and secured the hit II on downs. The ball was snapped to Kittle, who tood in his tracks, allowing Williamson to down him und scoring a safety fur Wabash, giving the visiting team two points. The play was cleverly executed, and It was much letter to allow Wabash to score the two points than to take chances on losing the ball and perrnittlnr Wabash to score a touchdown. After the eafety was made the ball was taken out to the 15-yard line and kicked off by Training School.

IN WABASH'S TERRITORY. The play during the entire game wai mostly In Wabaih'e territory. Wabash came dangerously rear scoring- touchdown, as mentioned above, in the second half, but excepting that one instance the college men were not dangerously nsr the Training School goal. Training School' victory can be credited to the team as whole, for each player did something toward helping make the final resulL Kay-lor was a tower of strength In boring holes through the Wabah line and advancing tho ball frr good gains when he waa called upon. Steele, Kittle.

Wheeler. Tad Shldeler, Davis, Cooper and Hamlet alv made Individual spectacular plays that either helped Training School to udvance the ball or prevent Wahash from pushing tho ball down the field. The defensive work of the Indianapolis playera was very creditable. Woodbridge was removed In the flrat half, because he straightened out his right arm and his rist came In contact lth one of the Wabash players' face during a scrimmage. McCrea was substituted in Wood bridge's place, and he did good work.

In the last half Sullivan was removed from the game and Griffey sent to left end. Plucky i.riffey did good work tackling the Wabash runners. The individual work for Wabash was done by Williamson, Black, Adama and Boston. When Wabash was in a position to rush the ball over the goal line for a touchdown Boston called lor the oval to bi to him each time, and he steadily carried it forward until the line was held within one yard and a half of the Training School goal.
