The "dope" book loses Its followers a good deal of money during the year, but at this stage of the game it looks as though i'Boss" Weeks' men had nothing on the blue. The one criticism of the game yesterday is that It was slow. The men did not line up with alacrity of football champions. Emporia was sometimes painfully dilatory. H.

"Ward Page and Krnest Hughes, the latter captain of the "Washburn 1301 team divided the duties of referee and umpire. Was But Little The game was pulled off with mighty litle oratory from either slae. Emporia, especially, was tame and docile enough to come up and eat out of the hand. There was a good crowd, but it wasn't all that good football warrants in To-peka. Caldwell went out near the end cf the second half and was replaced by Amick.

10. A strike of the coal miners in district No. 15. which was authorized by the United Mine Workers' national executive committee at Indianapolis yesterday, seems to be inevitable since the Colorado Fuel and Iron company and the Victor Fuel company persist in their refusal to confer with repre sentatives of the miners' organization. If called the strike will affect 23.000 men.

ine aemanas upon which th miners desire to confer with the operators are: mat eight nours shall constitute a day's labor; that all wages shall be paid semi-monthly and in the lawful money of the United States, and that the scrip system be entirely abolished- An increase of 20 per cent on contract and tonnage prices and 2.000 pounds to constitute a ton.

San Francisco, Oct. 10. Francisco Or-sino, a NIcaraguan editor, brought down upon his head the wrath of President Zelaya and was punished by a terrible flogging, a fine of $5,000, and confiscation of the paper in which he owned a part interest. Orsino arrived here yesterday. He lived in Grenada, and was the editor of a paper there.

Hfispoused the rebel cause a year ago, but was included In the general's amnesty when the revolt collapsed. Recently he cast reflections on the government in his paper. He was arrested and charged with plotting against Zelaya. He was stretched out, face downward, on a bench. After his back had been bared, strong officers held each limb, while a lash of tamarind branches was laid across his exposed body.

The pain inflicted was frightful. At intervals the beating would cease and he would be asked to confess. Denials brought more whipping. It was only when Orsino was near death, after receiving fifty lashes that the torture was ended. He was in bed several weeks.

THEY FEAR DAMAGE SUITS Great Financial Trouble is Predicted As Result of Withdrawal of Their Millions of Savings News of Labor Troubles. Chicago, Oct. 10. Three hundred mil lion dollars in savings banks throughout the country may be withdrawn as an indirect result of the recent damage suits against trade union men brought in Danbury, according to estimates made by local labor leaders today. Chicago union labor men predict a run on the savings banks in every part of the United States if the suits in the Connecticut town are decided adversely to the trade unionists.

The cases which have stirred up the workingmen were brought by employers against members of the United Hatters of North America and the members of the executive board of the American Federation of Labor and are. for $340,000 damages. The dam age claim was made because of the boycotting of a certain firm, in this connection the savings bank accounts of many of the defendants were attached, as well as their real estate. As the Anti-Boycott association has brought suit against members of the Associated Building Trades of Chicago In the Stiles case, the local men fear that an attempt will be made to tie up their bank accounts, thus cutting them off from the ready money needed to lay In their winter supplies of coal and provisions. Thomas I.

Kidd of Chicago, secretary of the Amalgamated Woodworkers union of America, and a member or tne executive board of the American Federation of Labor, who Is a defendant in the Danbury case, estimated last night that the members of the 150 national and international unions and 2,500 local, state mil fAtv antral rp-nin Hon mv srt a nyi on savings banks which he predicts --would result in a panic that would be more disastrous than the one of 1S93. Secretary Kidd swi that the members of the various orgltuzatlons nave to their credit in savings banks more than He asserts that the individual savings of the workingmen throughout the country aggregate $200,000,000 and that the unions themselves have fully another $100,009,000 deposited in savings banks. Tells of Union Funds That this is not overestimating the amount, he asserts. Is shown by the fact that the Unite Mine Workers of America alone have $1,500,000 in their general treasury, and the Illinois miners and the International union of cigar makers $500,000 each. He says each of the other unions "has from $10,000 to $30,000 In its treasury.

"If this damage suit Is sustained by the higher courts," said Secretary Kidd, "union men might retaliate by withdrawing their funds from the savings banks. I do not say that any suggestion to this enjj will come from leaders in the labor movement, but It would naturally put the laboring man on the alert. A local banker of this city has already condemned the prosecution of damage suits of this kind." Chicago bankers and officers of savings associations see no financial peril of any magnitude in the withdrawal of savings deposits because of the threatened damage suits. John V. Clarke, president of the Hibernian Savings bank, said laet night: "It is scarcely likely that the laboring men will withdraw their savings from the bank.

They know the savings bank is a safe place for their earnings and would be loath to take their money away." James H. Eckles, president of the Commercial National bank, said: "The laborer is far too sensible to act on such slight provocation. I do not believe enough deposits would be withdrawn to cause serious concern." "I doubt if the prospect of a number of suits for strike d.nep&es would Influence any large number a1 laborers to make withdrawals from banks," said W. T. Fenton, vice president of the National Bank of the Republic.

"At any rate. the laborers deports are so scattered 1 1 I- 1 would make little impression on the financial conditions." "There is little danger of a panic from such a cause," said ElbrHpre G. Keith, president of the Chicago Title and Trust company. While peace negotiations were being carried on yesterday between conference committees representing the Chicago Typo-thetae and the press feeders of Franklin union. No.

4, members of the Typothetae appealed to the Superior court for an injunction against the members of the Fra'nklin union. The application to restrain the striking press feeders from interfering with the business of the complainants was filed shortly after a nonunion press feeder was assaulted at noon yesterday. The filing of the bill of Injunction by members of the Typothetae prompted the officials of Franklin union to reject a proportion that the press feeders continue at work at the old wage scale and give six months" notice of the desired increase in wages. The members of the Typothetae who applied, for the injunction have replaced the striking press feeders with young women. Attorney A.

Emporia Had No Chance In Yesterday's Game WAS ONE SIDED AFFAIR The Score 47 to 0, Tells the Tale About Strength of Two Teams Washburn Stock is Away Up Now BIG SPORT EVENTS OF YESTERDAY Washburn College defeated the College of EmporU In football.

Score, 47 to 0. University of Kansas defeated the 8tate Normal at football by a score of 12 to 0. K. U. expected the score to be higher and the teachers expected to win.

At Lexington, the world's trotting record to wagon was twice smashed, once by Lou Dillon and the other by Major Delmar. Boston easily beat Pittsburg In the great post-season baseball series for the championship of the world. The decisive games will be played in Boston this week. Washburn football stock yesterday touched the highest mark since 1000. The team which Bert Kennedy has hammered Into shape in less than two weeks went through the Emporia college line like water through a funnel.

The score, 47 to 0, speaks eloquently of the game. Emporia college is weak; there is no question about that. They play high, start slowly and fumble repeatedly. But they never made an impression on the Washburn line and had the ball in Washburn territory but once during the game. Emporia held Washburn for downs but three times du: ng the game.

They made their distance the same number of times. Washburn kicked off and Emporia had the ball on their own twenty yard line. They made their distance the first attempt, were held for downs on the second, and Washburn, taking the bail, pushed Caldwell over for a touchdown within four minutes after play began. The succeeding chapters of the game were much like the first. Washburn ncored repeatedly and at will and Emporia never had a chance.

Washburn lost the ball once for offside play, and Emporia held them thrice: That was about all the chance Emporia had at the ball. Soon after the second kickoff Caldwell tried for a field goal, but missed it. Almost Immediately afterward Mehl carried the ball over for Washburn's second touchdown and Caldwell kicked an easy goal. It Was known then that the game would be a procession with Emporia trailing. Delay's Spectacular Work.

It was at this Juncture that DeLay was uncovered. DeLay is from the "short- grass" country and prior to yesterday afternoon had never played in a game of football. He had been out with the team during the short time it has been at practice, but has not been considered fcerlously by the football public. He was put in yesterday at quarterback, and some fear was expressed that Washburn would lose because of an inexperienced man at quarter. DeLay proved himself a star.

He is odds on the fastest, headiest and BuresV man Washburn has had in that position for three years. He opened his exhibition with a spectacular end run of forty yards which was indirectly respon sible for Washburn's third touchdown and followed It up with another for twenty-five yards near the close of the first half. DeLay is also a midget. He weighs not to exceed 115 pounds and Emporia sat upon him, twisted his neck and exhausted other artifices to put him out of the game without avail. DeLay took time for wind eight or nine times, but nlways came to the scratch.

He is green yot. of course, but gives every evidence of developing into a brilliant player. The first half ended with the score 30 to 0, and the ball for the sixth time within four feet of Emporia's goal. Hill, Crtldwell and Mehl had taken turns in carrying it over and Caldwell had kicked five successive goals. The second half was slower and shorter, the play running through twenty minutes.

The time of the first half was twentv-flve minutes. In making the third touchdown of the second half Caldwell injured his weak ankle nnd retired. Cunningham tried for the goal, but missed it. Caldwell had kicked seven in succession. Caldwell Played Star Game.

Caldwell played a star game at half. He was the most consistent and sure ground gainer for Washburn, and ance, aldfd by fine Interference carried the ball SO yards through Emporia's tackle. Practically all of the ground gainin however, was done around the ends. Tw or three times Washburn hammered Emporia's line for good gains, Mehl going tnrougn once nite a catapult for ten yards, but they always reverted to the end play. Emporia never got anywhere either way and on every occasion when hey had secured the ball had to punt It out of danger.

The new men on Washburn showed up finely. Sam Lakin gives great promise and Hill. Mehl, Cunningham, Stewart and Dadisman are all playing away above their last year's form. There is no question that Kennedy has wrought a miracle with the material and time at his command. The team obviously has Its faults yet, but the best interference seen on Washburn field in three years has been developed.

In. addition the team is playing a fierce offensive game and is greatly Improved In its defensive work. There is a tendency to fumble rather more than winning ball warrants, but practice ought to take this kink out of the team. K. U.

Must Look Out. Testerday's ahowlnf indicates that. the Washburn-K. U. game will not be the procession It has been for the oast two years.

Figuring from the "dope" it is even money now and the team that makes the best advancement from now oa will show In front. Kennedy, took team that practiced but four days to Emporia and held the State Normal safe, neither side scoring. Yesterday, afternoon, with the riany Ships Wrecked on the South Atlantic. LIVES KNOWN TO BE LOST For Miles Vp and Down ths Beach the Wreckage Is Strewn New Jersey Flood Situation Is Very Grave. Norfolk, Oct.

10. The Virginia coast from Cape Henry to Damneck mills, twelve miles south, is strewn with the wreckage of ill-fated craft tonight. All' communication with the seaboard is cut off but it is known that three vessels have been wrecked and several lives lost. Of the coal barges Ocean Belle and Georgia nothing is now left except wreck- age on the shore. Captain George H.

Adames and Seaman Charles Peters, of the Ocean Belle, were drowned. The fate of the Georgia's crew is unknown, but little hope is held for their safety. Both barges were in tow of the tug Richmond and the tug is missing. The three masted schooner Nellie W. Howlett, Captain Gheem, lumber laden, from Pensacola, is a total wreck on the coast three miles from Damneck mills.

The crew was rescued by the surf guard. The last train from the coast arrived at Norfolk tonight and brought many refugees. They report a large five-masted schooner in the surf between Virginia Beach and Cape Henry, and near her a big passenger steamer was fighting a battle with the northwest gale that was blowing her toward the breakers. The wind at the cape is over seventy-six miles an hour, and the surf is piling over the sand hills and back into the mainland. At the Norfolk navy yards the cruiser Olympia is in dry dock with her bottom plates removed, and fears are felt for the cruiser's safety.

Hundreds of small craft have come ashore in the harbor. Norfolk experienced a gale and flooded streets all day. A SERIOUS SITUATION. Water Is Higher in Peterson Than During 1902 Flood. Paterson, N.

Oct. 10. The flood sit uation tonight is very grave. The water at Garfield avenue is higher by fifty inches than the point reached In 1902. The damage to the city is estimated to amount to Crowds of men are guarding the gatehouse at the mill race and at the first intimation that the gate will break away at Spruce street the gatehouse will be blown up with dyna mite so as to turn the water into the chasm of the Passaic falls.

The people are expecting the dam to go at any min- uta and a gun has been fired as a signal of extreme danger. The dam expected to collapse is the Great Dundee. Should this give way it is feared that there would be a repetition of the Johnstown disaster. The bridges in the city are giving away one by one, causing a panic among the people. Already tonight five bridges have gone down under the strain of the frightful torrent.

They are the Straight street bridge, Hillman, Market, Moffatt and Broadway bridges. Trenton, N. Oct. 10. A flood which last night caused the suspension of through traffic on the Pennsylvania had subsided somewhat at 10 o'clock today, but not sufficiently to permit the running of trains.

There is no interference with traffic between New York and this city, but no trains are running between New York and Philadelphia. Five trains which should have passed through Trenton last night are stalled here. One of them is the midnight express from New "Vork city. Special trains containing cars of the Barnum Bailey circus are among those stalled. One of the cars of the circus train, a Pullman sleeper, was derailed.

Ladders had to be used to rescue the passengers. During the night heavv freight trains were used to hold down the bridge of the railroad company spanning the Assanpink creek. The waters of the creek overflowed the track and rose as high as the fireboxes of the engines. The Trenton Street Railway company, whose power house was flooded by the rising of the creek, expects to resume travel by noon. The Delaware river is still rising and the southern section of th xit i "anger of being flooded.

Scores of eel- lars of houses along the river front streets are flooded and on Fair street the water is up to the first floor of the houses. No great damage has been done so. far by the rising of the river except the carrying away of timber and other loose material along the overflowed banks. BAD FOR RAILROADS Traffic In Flooded District Was Practically Impossible New York, Oct. 10.

Some of the railways were still suffering today from the effects of yesterday's floods and washouts. No train arrived from Philadelphia on the Pennsylvania after midnight owing to a flood at Trenton, and the main line of the Erie railway was still tied up west of Passaic, N. J. Access to Paterson, N. by steam railroad was impossible.

The Passaic river was over its banks at Newark and factories and coal and lumber yards on the Newark water front were deep in water. On the Morris canal at BloomCeld. N. J-. the big equeduct broke, flooding the north end of the town while the business district was waist deep with water today from a breakage in the bank of the Second river.

Special to the Capital. Junction City. Oct.

10. A largs number of staff officers arrived at Camp Wiliam Cary Sanger today, and many more are expected tomorrow. Most of these officers are coming from West Point, where maneuvers have been in progress for the past two weeks. Besides the staff officers who have been ordered to Fort Riley, all of the umpires who have been on duty at the West Point maneuvers have been ordered to the maneuver camp here for duty. Ths chief umpire.

Colonel Arthur L. Wagner, will also act as chief at the Riley ma neuvers. The engineer battalion, which arrived at the camp last week, has finished ths work of putting one of the pontoon bridges on the Kansas river near the east end of the reservation and about four miles from the camp. Two more pontoon bridges will be built within two or three hundred yards of the first one. The signal corps has been at work this week getting the big portable searchlight ready for the maneuvers.

A test is to be made with the searchlight for the pur pose of ascertaining If it can be of any practical use in the maneuvering of land forces at night. There are only two of these portable searchlights In the army's possession, and the one at Fort Riley Is the only, one with which experiments have already been made. It has been operated several times at the post, once last year during the but, owing to the rainy weather, a thorough test of it could not be made. The searchlight outfit consists of four portable' pieces. There is a boiler en wheels which, looks very much like a traction engine.

The next piece is an engine of the marine type and a dynamo mounted on The engine of this piece when set up for operation, is connected with the portable boiler by means of an armored rubber hose which conducts the steam from the boiler to the engine. The searchlight, which Is of the largest type, is on a truck-by itself, and its connection with the dynamo is made Ly means of heavily in sulated wire. The fourth piece of the outfit is a steam winch, which is used to move the searchlight back and forth over' a path 500 feet In length so that, when the light Is being used in actual warfare, gunners cannot get the range of It. At a distance of a mile or more the change of positions in this path is not noticeable. Today another feature was added to the camp that it did not have last year, A tent 300 feet long and as large as the covering for a circus was put up just east of the camp's supply depot.

It will be used by the maneuver division's commissary department. All of the suosist-ence for the maneuver troops will be unloaded from, the cars and stored at this place. This week about 60.000 feet of water pipe connecting with the post waterworks system was opened. The work of laving the pipe for the maneuver camp was finished Wednesday. The camp Is now being supplied with a large number of ttIephons, which will give the troops the of the Ft.

During the first half there was no score made by either side, and the half was remarkable for the many costly fumbles and the loose playing on the part of the home team.

Once during the half Kansas had succeeded In working the ball downto the five yard line, and then lost it on a fumble. Emporia quickly got it out of the way of danger, and when time was called it was on the Kansas thirty yard line. The ball was fumbled four times during this half by Kansas, and the team had played a ragged game, each man for himself. The center passed the ball erratically, the line going to pieces at the onslaught of the Emporians, and while Kansas probably had the ball more than her share of the time, the Emporians had the best of the playing during the half. The second half started in Just as stubbornly and it was only by concerted work, an improvement over the first half, that made it possible for Kansas to finally shove Brumage over for a The play then continued in the same see-saw fashion that had prevailed since the beginning, until Griggs who had been put in at half during the second half, found a hole, and with splendid interference went 45 yards to a touchdown.

Both goals were kicked by Pooler. The playing was marked by a tendency to roughness on the part of both, teams. Hensley was particularly offen sive at this and caused trouble with Allen and F'eischman that threatened an outbreak. Kansas was not slow to retaliate in kind, and this feature of the game tended to take away from the team work, and make each man go after, his man with a determination to outdo him in the rough and tumble contest. For Kansas, Hicks and Fleiscnman, the ends particularly distinguished themselves, w'hile Ackerman made great gains when he was given the ball.

In the second half Griggs and Ice lined things up by making plunging advances through the Emporia line. For Emporia, Hensley, Finklea and Meek played a strong game. The punting of the Emporia team was also well done. The game was a disappointment to both sides. The Normal team had come here with the Intention and expectation of winning, the Kansas team had planned to run up the highest score of the season.

It was only by the hardest kind of work that the home team was able to score, and the visitors never had a chance to score. The Emporia boys were accompanied by 400 Normal students, and the Kansas turnout was unusually large, so that the game was witnessed by the largest crowd of the season, and college enthusiasm ran high. The time of the halves was twenty minutes, and the officials were Whittlesey and Jenltinson. The lineup: Kansas. Position.
