Ryland T. is looking well and Bob Stewart, his driver, says he will certainly defeat the black whirlwind, while Curry, Patchen's driver, is equally confident he can beat the "bronco." The track is harrowed up nicely and with the wind of last night and the forenoon's sun, should be in strictly first-class condition.

The Columbia Boys Take an Easy Game From the Southerners.

Special to the Kansas City Times. Austin, Dec. 5,000 people assembled at Hyde park this afternoon to witness one of the greatest foot bail games that ever took place in the Southwest. The Texas university team met its first defeat today, and was never scored against before. The score was, Missouri, 28; Texas, 0.

Missouri played one of the most scientific games ever seen here. It played with wand a vim, and that is thana what tells the tale. Conover covered himself with glory. Captain Young made four touch-downs and Conley one. The first touch-down was made in six minutes after play began.

Missouri won the toss and took the goal. Texas having the ball, Day kicked for twenty-five yards, but Evans brought it back to the center. The center bucked at each line-up till Missourt was crossed the goal line. Thompson Texas, kicked a goal. Score: Missouri, Missouri 0.

Young (Captain) BOWEN MAY DIE. Lavigne Knocks Him Out in Eighteen Rounds at New Orleans, New Orleans, Dec. Lavigne and Andy Bowen fought tonight in Auditorium club in the presence of about 1,400 people. The purse was for $3,000 divided, $2,500 to the winner and $500 to the loser. John Duffy acted as referee.

Both men were over weight, Bowen scaling 133 and Lavigne 135. The weight agreed on was 130. With the exception of the first round Lavigne had the best of the fight clear through. Bowen was knocked out in the eighteenth round. Bowen was carried limp and senseless from the ring by his seconds to his room, where Drs.

Finney, Shupert and Barnan waited to bring him to consciousness. There was great excitement in the man's room, with the fear that he might die entertained by all present. Dr. Hanan, who has had much practice in conditions on boxing matches, said Bowen was evidently suffering from concussion of the brain. One of the bad symptoms was the pupils of the eyes were different colors, and frequent vomiting caused the friends much alarm.

At this hour of the report (11. p. Bowen is still in a bad way. At 1 o'clock this, Saturday, morning. Bowen's condition had not improved and was deemed so serious that the ambulance has been sent to the arena convey him to the Charity hospital.

Lavigne has been detained by the police. A good sum for a superior article is real economy. That is why Dr. Price's Baking Powder is a good investment. PENSION BILL PASSED.

CAPTAIN CREEDON CREATES A SENSATION BEFORE THE LEXOW COMMITTEE. He Admits That He Paid $15,000 to Secure His Place-A Few Hours Later He Is Suspended From His Position and Superintendent Byrnes Ordered to Prepare Charges Agatest Him. New York, Dec. Captain Creedon confessed before committee today that he paid $15,000 to secure his captaincy. A few hours later he was suspended from the force by the Board of Police Commissioners on the recommendation of Superintendent Byrnes, who was instructed to prepare charges against him.

The Lexow committee had agreed that Creedon should be granted immunity from punishment for his purchase of a captaincy and when the action of the Police Commissioners became known, they, as well as Superintendent Byrnes, were subpoenaed to appear this afternoon before the investigating body. Captain Creedon's confession was the biggest sensation brought forth 1 by the Lexow committee. In itself the captain's statement was merely a confirmation of testimony elicited before the Senators yesterday, but the startling facts essentially interwoven with this sensational exposure and taint of dishonor and corruption upon men who have held some of the most responsible officers in the gift of the community. But public censure is not heaped on Creedon's head. He had served in the local police department for thirty years with honor and distinction.

He is a war-scarred veteran whose record shows that in twenty-three engagements of the Civil war, he risked his his country. The captain's fault is forgotten by the popular mind in sympathy for his present trying position and respect for his past record. The day was replete with exciting and dramatic incidents in consequence of the Lexow committee proceedings, throughout the official channels that bear relation to the public departments involved in the investigation. "The knave of hearts, he stole those tarts." And no wonder if they were made with Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder.
