Philadelphia. May 2S, the most important athletic meet of the year will be the international contest which takes place today on the Queen's Athletic London, between the combined Yale and Harvard teams, representing the YALE tWO OF YALE'S PROSPECTIVE WINNERS 1 Wil pi Hi ll1 T. GLASS. United States, and the Oxford and Cambridge teams, representing England. This will be the third meeting of this kind between these institutions, and, as each side has been victorious once, the struggle to win the deciding meet is of a most intense character.

The initial meet of the series was held in London in 1S99 and resulted in a victory for the Britons by the score of 5 to 4, only first place counting, as now. The second meet was held in New York city in 1901, and this time the American collegians reversed things and came out first by the score of 6 to 3. There are nine events on the pro gram. Each side is to oe allowed to start two men in each. Only first FAIL.

Focht and Stewart Still in Doubt as to Outcome of Contests SENATOR PENROSE WILL TAKE NO PART IN EITHER Lively Fight Among Lehigh County Democrats Andrew Predicts Republican Victory The Republican conferrees of the Franklin Huntingdon Senatorial district, are still deadlocked, with no siens of a break. With candidates determined to remain in the field to the finish and Senator Penrose's re fusal to mtertere me outcome is tain. Several fruitless ballots were ral fruitless ballots were esterday's meeting by the in this city and at'the close taken at ye conferrees they were no nearer a choice than they were two months ago. Franklin county continues to stand by Senator Alex.

Stewart and Huntingdon remains loyal to Allen S. Welch. Although there is no probability of the election of a Democrat to Con gress in the Seventeenth district, where Congressman Triad. M. Mnhon.

Chambersburg. has been nominated for the sixth consecutive time. Geors C. Eentz and O. C.

Bowers, ot Chambersburg. are rival candidates for the nomination. Bowers thought he had the field all to himself until a few days ago. when Bentz announced his candidacy and served notice that he would take an active canvass of every county in the district. Focht on Anilons Bnid I The Republican conference for the nomination of a senator in the North umberland Snyder Union district will i reconvene at Selin's Grove on August 2d.

This was agreed upon by Senator B. K. Focht. the choice of Union county, and Dr. Percival Herman, Snyder county's candidate, without consulting ex Kepresc Fred.

C. Godcharlcs, Northumberland's choice. There have been so many changes in this contest the last two months it is impossible to tell from one day to the next what will be the outcome of the deadlock. One day Focht and Herman agree on a plan of action for the nomination of one or the other pud the next Herman and Godcharles effect a deal by which Godcharles is to be nominated this year and Herman in 190S. The truth is Herman holds the key to the situation and he does not want to deliver his conferrees to either of his opponents for fear of offending the unsuccessful aspirant.

Pie would like to have the nomination himself, but the situation is so complicated that it is doubtful if he can bring this about, although it is certain Godcharles' conferrees will never vote for Focht and Focht's men will never vote for Godcharles. Senator Penrose has finally refused to interfere in the contest or appoint nn umpire under the State rules, to break the deadlock. There are two other Senatorial deadlocks in the State and if Mr. Penrose were to appoint an umpire in this district he would have to appoint one in the others. Sowiteu Mny Flt ht Kline Joseph W.

Mayne, one of the leaders of the minority party in the last two sessions of the House of Representatives, is having a desperate fight for renomination by the Lehigh county Democratic convention next Saturday. Mayne is making a systematic canvass and professes to be confident of winning, although the tide is running so strongly against him that his opponents predict he will be swamped.

A south bound car hit the wagon of the Riverview dairy and scattered the white fluid over Third street. The latter for a time had the appearance of a milky way. Fortunately the car was not traveling fast and the shaking up given the milk was not sufficient to churn it into butter. The wagon was damaged and will go to the shop for repairs. No one was injured.

There is a society in England which has as one of its chief objects to strip the modern stage of its elaborate scenery and to return to the days when the play was the thing, and not, its settinEr. places count in the scoring. The nine events are as follows: 100 yard dash; quarter mile run, high' hurdles, half mile run, mile run, two mile run. hammer throw and broad and high jumps. In comparing the records of the two teams the Americans appear to have a slight advantage.

They are picked as almost certain winners of the 100 yard, the hurdle race and the hammer throw. The Britons, on the other nand, are conceded but two events. These are the mile and two mile runs. The other four events, the quarter and half mile runs, and the two jiimps, are the open and deciding events. In the 100 yard, Schick, of D.

J. Torrey. Harvard, the intercollegiate cham pion, with a record of 9 4 5 seconds, is an almost certain winner over Morell, of Oxford, or Churchill, of Cambridge! In the hurdles Cantain Clapp, of Yale, is head and shoulders above the Br.itons and unless his injury received in the intercollegiat.es here handicaps him, he should win easily with the probability that Bird, of Harvard, will give him a harder race than his English opponents. The third sure event for the Americans is the hammer throw. Shevlin, Yale, is picked as the winner of this, ond as he can throw nearly forty feet better than the English collegiate there is no room for argu ment in this event.
