In the reichstag today the debate on the commercial treaties was resumed. Herr Pasch. national liberal, declared that his party waa opposed to any sacrifices being imposed on agriculture, but believed that sacrifice were involved in the treaties now cuuer discussion, Herr Plots, agrarian, denied that his party had stirred tip the rural population and maintained tnat the farmers bad lost confidence in the government. The agricultural depression, he added, bad not been exaggerated by the agrarians. Chancellor Von Caprlvi said that the statement that the rural population had lost confidence tn the government was ntterly untrue.

A reduction of the corn duties, the chancellor said, was necessary in order to maintain Chat industry and indirectly benefit husbandry. The methods of the Agrarian League, which iwas largely composed of conservatives, were no longer conservwrlve, and the evils from which husbandry was suffering organic 'and could not be remedied the government. It was therefore "unreasonable for the sfarmera to denounce the government before they bad themselves suggested remedies. Herr mialiiHit. favored the treaties during the course of the remarks be made upon the subject.

Herr fc tuinm, imperialist, said that bis approval depended upon proof 'that they Kvouid not injure husbandry. Herr Ricuter supported the treaties. The Freisshinige party submitted motions demanding universal, equal and direct suffrage and a revision of the elect oral districts in addition to reform In the hrwa governing public meetings and the formation of societies.

He Leaves chaefer's World's Becord a Hundred Behind. Truly Wonderful Work With the Cue Louisiana's First College Football Game To Day. Chicago, Nov. 24. It was assigned as a res sod for Schaefar's somewhat Indifferent playing in his billiard contest with Ires, at Central Musio Hall last night, that ha was out of form by reason of a congestive chill.

He wanted no excuses, however, saying he felt better last night than all the week. The fact Is that the Wizard has a severe cold, which may or may not have a detracting Influence on his work during this contest. Ives left the balls in poor position for himself last night. He only had one to go and was In a hurry to get it and end the game, so he smashed them without exercising his usual care for place. When he resumed play at the opening of this evening's game he consequently had a short Inning.

He added but six to his score, all oT them long range shorts, but he quit oo an easy cushion to the aide. Ives did not play like himself the first half hour. He missed several simple ones, and with the exception of 32 in the fifth inning, which he laboriously plied" up, he did next to nothing until the seventh, when he broke, after a net work, on a back draw. He got the wrong English on it. His ran waa 72.

Schaef er did not do much better at the start, but now he got in some of bis best licks. He found the balls In the upper left hand corner, and after playing them in and out for a dozen points he got an anchor position. But they were at the wrong end of the table for im, and while he gof 83 In that position he did not hold them there as solidly as In his work when be nails them in the lower right hand corner. He made 94 on the run. Ives' run of 116 In the tenth was the result of accurate driving of the flrst object ball for positioc He got them all in open play, his pet position being a bunch, wulcu he was abla to hold for U5 billiards by sending the hrst object ball to the side rail or corner pocket.

Like a boomerang, it always came back. It was in the twelfth Inning that Ivea tried a little "con" He came very close, but the position of the balls demonstrated that be failed to count. He was going right ahead with the next stroke when Scnuefer, who had his eagle, eye open, cropped bis cue on the table and demanded a decisiou of the referee. "N'o count," said Mr. Khines, and the Napoleon got In a subdued but vigorous kick.

Both men played a pretty game, evenly from the start, but Schaefer had fewer small runs than Ives the first half of the game, and be gradually diminished Ives' lead of 178. After two hours' play there was only 14 points between the players. Then Ives astonished the people and awakened tumultuous applause by getting the balls in Schaeter's pet position, an uncnor in the lower right hand corner, and playing them there as cleverly as Schaefer ever did himself. Without budging the object balls be played back and forth on them until the people grew tired of the monotony and their eyea weakened from being chained to the same spot. The red ball was tight to the cushion all the time, the other object waa frozen to the red, and stood 2 Inches from the cushion.

Ives shot from the lower right hand comer and the lower left hand corner alternately, and so delicate was his touch that the red could not have been more stationary if riveted to the spot. The other object shivered with each isontact of the cue hall, bnt never moved. It was on the forty second shot that he made the anchor. When one hundred waa called, and It was still unbroken there was loud cheering. Ives took a drink of water, went at it again, and rolled np another hundred.

Still the balls had not been moved from position. One hundred more and the applause was terrific. Scfaaefer's world's mark of 343 was reached and passed, 400 was scored, and everybody but Ives was excited, and yet the balls had not moved from their first position. It seemed as if be might go oo this way nntll eternity, and so he might if the rue ball would not freeze. This it did on the 444th shot, and Ives scored the next on a difficult masse.

The anebor was broken. Ives had now 17 to go to end the night's play. He quit five from the goal on a masse, bis ball being between the other two, and all three being close together on the rail. It. was eawv.

and Ives claimed he made it, but Referee Khines said no. Srhaefer took his cue. and began playing calmly but not effectively. He made 6. Tfcm Ives rolled np the needed 5 by nll aronnd shots.

He was not only the "winner of the evening, hot In everybody's Judgment the winner of the match there being but one more nieht's olay. which will open with Schaefer over five hundred behind. And it was generally supposed thnt Ives could not plav an anchor, nor could he, bnt he lenrned it from Schaeter's Hay this week. The score to night Ives ROO, Srhaefer 467. Total score: Ives 3200, Schaefer Average to night: Ives 47 1 17.

Schaefer 22 15 16. FOOTBALL. TUTiAXB SELECTS THE ELEVEN FOR TODAY. At 3 o'clock this afternoon the football eleven from the University of Louisiana, at Baton Rouge, and the team from the Tulane University, of this city, will meet on the field for the first time. Both teams are comparatively new and neither play a very high grade of game.

The Baton liouge eleven has trained Its men more on team work and Interference, while the Tulane men have been drilled in tackling, falling on the ball, catching a long pass, and in fact all the main points of the game. Team work has not been neglected, however, and the eleven Is a' very fair one, and in fair trim for a fight. There are men on the team Ilk Hugh Bayne, Foster, Castetudo and Bomeyne, whose playing has already won them praise. Hugh Bayne, when at iale college, some few mouuis ago, was substitute on the university's champion eleven. He plays a hard game from start to finish, tackles low and very hard and generally disables his man.

He bas been given the position, of left tackle on the team, where be can easily do great damage to his opponents. He is looked upon as one of the men to win. Foster, one of tne Soutnern guardd, has ic oently entered the law school of the Tulane University, and was induced to take a position on the eleven. He is In the best of health, and is fully up to the standard in the game. Castenado, the 230 pound center rush, has gotten off almost all of his fat, and now plays a ve.y fast and hard game.

The rapidity with which this big fellow gets about tin: Held is remarkable. Kotueyne, another heavy weignt. Is xlno playing a very good game. He will be a very good man behind the line. At 4 o'clock the old medical yard was crowded with football players.

They had assembled for their last practice. T. Bayne, the team coucher, arrived a few minutes later and worked his men through a number of new plays they have taken up. One of these has proved very suecessful, and will be used to day. The team is very good at bucking the center, and rushing tue dying wedge.

Their half backs are speedy and strong and will do some fine run. uing, if they are given a chance. In any iyle of play the team will prove hard to de tea i. Their strong point is quickness. Not a minute is lost during tbe time on the field.

Immediately after a play tbe men are In line agaiu and ready for the next signal. The report that the Baton Kouge team was very good on team work has bad but little effect upon the local players, uud they are fully confident of wiuning. They realize that they will have to play hard to defeat a team which bas bad every day in tbe week to get Into coudition, and they will play hard from start to Mr. T. Bayne has trained his men in blocking a rush from a wedge in tbe style that made his team last year tamous among local athletes.

Castenado will do the blocking and the other heavy men In the rush lime will attend to the breaking of tbe massed eleven. At the practice game last evening tbe men played very well. Lewis und Teoault, the two half backs, were given a chance to Oo some tine running, and met with every expectation. When practice was over the men were called np and told who would ply in the first bolt, this team will he us tolhjr: i'otta, right end; Forter, right tackle; Guthrie, right guard; Castenado, rush; Foster, left guard; Bayne, left tackle; Blukei.ore, left end; Lombard, quarter buck; Teba ilt, right half back; Lewis, left hulf Ui'k, and ltomeyuc, full back. Itobektt and Buchanan are also members of the regular tctuu as tain, but will not be played at the opening of the game.

The sub are: Payne and Joor, quarter backs; Oenella, Sullivan, Harm! and Wood, guards; Lyon and Von I'hul, tackles; Bellengerr JDufour, Eehleman, Bowling and Payne, ends. The men will meet at the grounds, at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon, and the game will be played promptly at 3 o'clock. T. 1 Bnyue, while talking of Tulane's prospects of winning, said be thought the local men should win the game, but they would have to play bard from beginning to end. Baton Rouge may play a good team game, but the local men will not give them mocb time to resi.

and may tackle so quickly and so hard that the Baton Bouge" eleven wHl be thrown completely off its guard. This being their first game they wiU be entirely new to many tricks, and will naturally play under a great disadvantage. He thought the game would be a hard one, and good one, the soars would not le very large. The Baton Bouge team win arrive early in the morning and will be extended the courtesies of tbe Southern Athletic Club. It is the Idea of ths teams to have the game come oft exactly at the time fixed, so that tbe men beta the Law School will have a chance to attend that evening's lecture.

The officers of the day have not yet been appointed, but is believed that T. L. Bayne will serve as umpire and Prof. Obates referee. Tbe field committee bas been chosen as follows: Class of '94 C.

From the present outlook this will be the most successful meeting, from a sporting standpoint, held here for several years. A better class of horses is coming here for winter quarters, and there is a greater demand for stable room than last season.

For tbe past week, not a day has passed without equine arrivals. The stall room is sufficient for 600 horses, but contracts are out for the erection of another stable large enough to hold 150 horses. This stable will be com Sleted within a few days. Yesterday the fol wing horses arrived: J. Grume, Owner Billy SXcKenzle, ch 2.

OVER PRODUCTION Probably the Senatorial Verdict on tbe Low Price of Cotton. Tbe subcommittee of tbe senatorial agricultural committee bas finished Its labors In New Orleans.

Messrs. George and Bate yesterday ended their Investigation here into the cause of tire, low price and tbe depression In the price of cotton. A large list of prominent cotton men bare been heard and their evidence placed In the record. Senator George said last night that be was satisfied with the investigation made here, and that be thought it would be of very great advantage, on account of the city of New Orleans being the largest cotton market iu the world, and having at heart tbe cause of toe depression and the remedy for 'it, if one can possibly be found. Ue said that majority of the men who testified before the committee Were sworn before they gave their evl dnce.

He thinks that the agricultural committee will not have trouble in finding the true cause of the low prices in cotton. Senator George Veft over the Northeastern at 7:50 for Hattiesburg, where he will remain for several days, going from there to his home in Grenada. Senator Bate will reave this morning for Tennessee. He says he haa enjoyed his stay in New Orleans, and that the cotton men have assisted him in eWry possible way to further the investigation, and meke it valuable alike in results to the producer, the consumer and the factor. The senators Bay there i no doubt about the paramount cause of the depression being overproduction, but there are tributary causes, and in all, quite a number of them.

The cotton men examined by the committee during their stay here, were: J. W. Laboulsse, of DeBuys Laboulsse; Walter C. Flower, of Flower King; John J. Gragard, A.

There was an important meeting yesterday afternoon at the Sugar Exchange of boss draymen, at which a number of sugar men, receiTers, brokers and others were present by Invitation. The meeting was called "by the boss draymen for the purpose of taking into consideration the Impassable condition of the approaches to the Texas and Pacific Depot and adopting some means to compel the company to put the approaches in good condition. The boss draymen present were: TV. H. Douglas, A.

J. Whalen, R. Otero, M. W. Murphy, M.

Kenny, J. C. Cremens, Chas. Mele, J. Emmer, it.

Monnin. H. Spindler, K. Callan, John Everett, W. T.

Murphy, president of the Sugar Exchange: Messrs. Branch King, V. B. Bloomneld, George Attain, B. V.

Seago and "YVm. Henderson. Mr. vV. H.

Douglas occupied the chair and Mr. A. J. Whalen acted as secretary. Mr.

Douglas, In stating the purpose of the meeting, aescribed the condition of tbe approaches to the Texas and PaclUc Railroad Depot, and the attempts which have been made both by the draymen and the Sugar Exchange to induce the officials of the road to remedy the trouble. The discussion wnicn followed developed the fact that complaints have been made without avail to Mr. C. F. Miller, of the Texas and Pacific Road, and that investigation into the condition of the approaches complained of by the officials of the Sugar Exchange some time since demonstrated that the charges of the draymen were well founded.

After the subject had been fully gone over, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Thw following draymen obligate themselves not to haul any goods to or from the Texas and Pacific Railroad on and after Dec 1, unless the approaches to same have been repaired and put In good order." All the boss draymen signed the resolution, and a copy was ordered sent to Colonel E. B. Wheelock, of the Texas and Pacific Railroad. It was also ordered that the resolution be published, so as to give shippers and receivers due. notice.

A resolution was also passed pledging the support of the receivers of sugar to the position taken by the boss draymen. After this the meeting adjourned. In conversation with a reporter of the Picayune, Mr. Douglas stated that the approaches to the depot were in such condition that it was absolute cruelty to their stock to continue hauling goods to and from that point until something was done in the way of repair. The draymen, he added, were forced to take the position they had.

having failed by expostulation to Secure a betterment of the situation from the railroad officials. Mr. Branch King stated that the Sugar Exchange had also endeavored to have the Texas and Pacific Railroad repair the approaches to its depot without success. He declared that the condition of affairs was exactly as the draymen described it. and that the receivers heartily indorsed the stand they bad taken.

The fight between the Lehigh Valley Railroad and lis employes is now on to a finish. Tha. men begin to realize this for the first time. There was hope all along until to day that a compromise might be effected, but now that hope has vanished. The ray of sunshine that pierced the gloom this morning and gave encouragement to the hope that the strike was nearing an end was dispelled by the fallowing communication to Chairman Rice from Messrs.

Simpson and Watkins, local operators, delegated at the operators' meeting to meet Mr. Wilbur and see if he would not assent to a hearing of the railroaders in the matter at issue: "Owing to your insisting upon reinstatement of all employes, our negotiations far a conference have failed." Mr. Wilbur is standing by his circular of Nor.1 21 In its entirety. Mr. Bice, upon reviewing the situation, said: "I very much regret that the hopes we cherished yesterday of an early adjustment of the difficulties have about vanished.

It looks like a long fight, but tbe men are prepared for It.
