BOSTON SUNDAY POST, NOVEMBER 8, 1896. WAITS. be loyalty to the cause In the last campaign. "We have polled 100.000 votes. They can nevet be changed.

That is the future of our party. Our faith is so deep that it cannot be attested by minor considerations." Mr. Williams said he believed that prosperity and happiness could never como to this couitt.rv until Rrvan's cause pre Many Are Feeling Happy and Some Are Feeling Blue. After the first half had been played, a pool of 1500 was ralseil by the enthusiastic Tigers, which was offered against $200, that Princeton would win and Harvard would not score. Thl bet was not taken.

YALE, 18; MOWN, 6 PROVIDENCE, Nov. 7. Brown played Yale one of the hardest fought football games this afternoon that has ever been seen here. Yale won by the score 18 to but at one time duriing the game Brown had victory on her side by the score 6 to 4, and at ai. other critical period the home team had the ball wlrthin four yards of Yale's goal, to lose possession of the pigskin on downs after lour scrimmages of the hardest football Brown has ever played since the memorable football battle of last year, resulting Brown 6, Yale 6.

There was a big difference In the playing of the two elevens. Yale especially in the second half used almost altogether the heavy formation plays In which she We Would Ask All to Examine OUR GREAT STOCK OF Yale. Time, first half second tialf, 26m. AMHERST, WILLIAMS, 4. WILLIAMSTOWN, Nov.

7. Williams lost this afternoon's game to Amherst through inability of her backs to catch punted balls. Williams's line was much stronger than Amherst's, tout her backs fumbled continually. Amherst played the snappHest game, and relied on Tyler's kicking for ground gaining. Williams's linesmen broke through time and again and blocked his kick, but wretched fumbling gave the ball to Amherst immediately.

Amherst managed to keep the ball In Williams's territory all the first half, and scored on a fluke Just as time was up. Wright tried to punt, but was slow in kicking and the ball was blocked, bounding back over Williams's goal line. Boy don was after it and fell on it, scoring a touchdown. Tyler kicked goal. Williams's playing Improved somewhat In the first of the second half, and by a firm onslaught on the tackles Williams worked the ball over the goal at the end of fifteen minutes' play.

Ryan failed to kick goal, and his failure cost the game. Williams worked the ball to Amherst's ten yard line again, but fumbling and offside play gave Amherst the ball.

AUTOPSY. E. tie Not Propose 10 Sow His Hand Just Yet. STATE DEMOCRACY FIRST. Lively Meeting of Bryan Sewall Williams Club Yesterday.

PLANS FOR REORGANIZATION. There was a meeting of the Bryan Bewall Willlams Club, the personal organisation of George Fred Williams in Mas eachusetts, yesterday, at the Tremont street headquarters, and it was definitely decided to continue the organization until tim a Ids TlomnnrnHn State com mitten Is willing to concede certain things to the mmbers of the club. During the campaign certain leaders of the club found that as an organization It was unwieldy, and that the duties of managing the affairs of the Bryan Democracy developed upon a few. To extend the responsibility and formulate kindred organizations In towns and cities throughout the State is the plan that the leaders of tho club have now in view. The plan is to maintain the present central organization and then have an associate body in each town and city much upon the same plan as the Democratic State central and clcy and town committees are run.

The chairmen of the town, city or ward committees are to be members of the central body, and already this plan is being favorably considered by the Democrats outside of Boston. Before anything is done, however, the country Democrats will make another attempt to Vreat the control of the State organization from the Boston leaders. For many years the State organization has bean controlled by the Boston Democracy, and the country members who furnished 80 per cent of the total vote for Bryan are anxious to have city politics eliminated from the doings of the State central committee. Last spring Judge Corcoran endeavored as chairman of the State committee to have the Boston and State organizations separated, and with that end in view suggested that the city organization find headquarters elsewhere. Since the Chicago convention was held the matter was lost eight of.

but it may be revived again at the meeting in January. It is definitely settled that as an organization the Bryan Scwall Willlams Club will not take part in the municipal election this year, as the ciub is not local, but general in its nature, and the purpose is to bring about harmony in the State, leaving local politics to local Organism Tli anri IrwlivlHiml vr.fprfl tf flfiilisf. Although the meeting was held at the Bryan Sewall Williums Club headquarters yesterday it was not an official meeting by any meana, it not having the sanction of the president, secretary and other officers of the club.t The meeting yesterday was called by Francis A. Ho bf.rt, the Brain tree "citizen," and in his idea he had the support of some members of the club. Mr.

Hobart, in issuing the call to only a portion of the mem tiers. 'had the impression that as the campaign Vva3 now ended it would be a good time to reorganize, but this plan was squelched hv the club upon the advice of Mr. Williams. The club will continue as it is now until the State committee reorganizes, and much depends upon tho action of that body whether the Bryan Heweil Williams Club as a State factor Concessions may be tr.ads, and if satisfactory the State com mit, it may once more be called upon to take charge of the party affairs in Massachusetts. Should tho present hostility towards Williams continue it is likely the merry war will go on until the result is the survival of the fittest.

There was much acrimonious discussion at the meeting of the triple named club yesterday, but It ended when Mr. Williams made his appearance and offered his advice. Citizen Hobart, who originated yesterday's meeting, said: "It seems absolutely important that the work of education should be kept up, preparatory to the great contest of 1900, when we have confidence to believe, with a perfected organization and under the same great leader, success will be certain. "Already the note of warning which should arouse us to action has been Bounded. "John W.

Corcoran, once the trusted leader of the party in Massachusetts, has announced his purpose to retain his membership in the state committee, that by his vote and the exercise of that strategy and parliamentary skill or trickery of which he is an adept master, he may help turn it over to the new committee in order to keep It In disloyal control. "Thomas J. Gargan declares that har mon In the Dcmocratio ranks must be restored, but announces that it can only be dDne by the complete surrender of the 100,000 tc the beggarly bolters on a gold basis. "To checkmate these schemes, I have Invited you, as loyal Democrats, to come together to day, to devise measures to protect tho integrity of the party, and to prevent Its organization from being delivered into traitors' hands." John V. Scollard, a member of the Dem.

ocratic State committee, said the club should not go at reorganization in too much haste. It would be better to wait, he thought, and see what the State committee did. H. J. Jaqulth, A.

A. Pillar and others spoke in favor of reorganization. James F. Morris of Fall River, who was the Democratic congressional candidate In the thirteenth district, opposed reorganization until it could be ascertained what was' necessary to be done. John F.

Custck of Brookline made a motion that the matter of reorganization bo left with the officers of the cluo and a committee of ten members. The arrival of Mr. Williams at this point made a remarkable change in the action of the members. He said: "I did not understand that when the club was organized it was for a temporary purpose. It was organized to do the work that the regular Democratic organization refused to do, and that refusal and opposition to the Chicago platform still exists and no other body but the Bryan Sewall Wllliams Club can do this work.

The chib began its labors under gvn difficulties. Its work was one of conversion, and the way Is still open. would not favor changing the The present club was one of leadership in this State, and I do not wish to see the cause in other hands. I am satisfied with the loyalty of the men gathered about me, and the cause they had fought for should remain In their handa. "Any opposite policy," said Mr.

Williams, "I should regard as inimical to our interests. Until these men have contented to the change none should be attempted.11 The basis of membership, he said, should Ad on Page 8 Wilt toterett joa. Doss vailed. Hp admitted that temporary prosperity might come under McKlnley, but that nothing of a permanent nature In this direction could be accomplished until silver was restored. He said that if anything was done in the direction of the call it should be in the extension of membership of the club, and opposed making the membership large.

He hoped that tens of thousands of honest people who voted against them in the last campaign would come to see the error of their way, and would aid them in securing victory four years hence. Mr. Williams took occasion to say something pleasant concerning the action of the executive committee during the campaign. Francis P. Curran accused the executive club of shirking its duties, to which, Secretary Dennlson replied.

J. F. Dowd of Hyde Park took part in the debate. The club adopted Mr. Cusick's motion and adopted a resolution Indorsing the action of officers, and the meeting adjourned.

There will be a meeting of the club after the State committee meets to make arrangements for holding a banquet, at which Senator Daniel of Virginia or Governor Altgeld may be Invited to speak. ALDERMAKIC CONTEST. Alderman Hall Announces His Candidacy for Ee election. The Republican city committee of Boston expects to elect seven Aldermen, to control the City Council on a Joint ballot and thereby elect a city clerk, clerk of committees and a city messenger. The result of the election Tuesday has Inspired them with confidence, and the claim is made that Boston, as a result of the new registration, is no longer a Democratic city.

The Democrats dispute thi contention, however, by stating that thirteen out of twenty five wards elected Democratic members to the legislature. Thev further claim that the vote last Tnesdav was not a fair indication of the Democratic strength, because many Dem .111 A. ocrats voted for McKimey, wno wm noi give the Republicans the control they desire. Tho aldermanlc contest in the Dem nnratic. ran ks is causine much uneasiness among the leaders, and an appeal for har mony may be made before tne convention is held.

The slate that is looked upon with favor includes the nomination of Alderman Lee, Barry, Mahoney, the Donovans and Jo slah S. Dean of South Boston. wno tne seventh man will be is not decided upon, but he mav como from either Dorchester or Roxbury. The latter section has sev eral candidates, while Dorcnester wm once more present the name of Alderman Bordman Hall to the convention. Alderman Hall was the Democratic can diate for Congress in the tenth congressional district, and demonstrated his strength, hv running nearly 6000 votes ahead of Bryan and Williams in the dis trict.

Yesterday a delegation of prominent business men of Dorchester, Republicans and Democrats, called upon him at his office and said they desired nimwto be a candidate for re election. Two years ago he was frozen out on the aldermanlc combination in the city convention, but the year following was nominated. The Alderman will do a candidate for the board again this year, and it is expected the convention will nominate him when it meets Nov. 23. There are twenty six candidates for the Republican nominations.

By far the Uugest electric light sign in New England adorns the facade of Lothrop's New Grand Theatre, which was lighted for the first time last night. It shone like a sunburst and attracted the attention of thousands along Washington street.

The sign is composed of 1000 Incandescent lamps of 32 candle power each, and the electricity is supplied from three currents sufficient to turn a car rail to white heat. The name of the theatre Is shown in letters of Incandescent lamps, four feet long and of about the same width, and underneath the theatre prices are announced In electric letters. The incandescent globes are protected by blocks of tin, and the entire arrangement is said to be the best and most complete ever put up in any part of this country. The switchboard is so arranged that the entire 1000 lights can be controlled from three different parts of the theatre, and this arrangement, together with the other arrangements of the electrical supply for lighting the New Grand Theatre, is said to be the best and costliest in any theatre in America. The electricity Is taken from the street mains and tho cost is $300 a week for six hours each night.

The new sign will be lighted every week day night hereafter, beginning Monday evening. cathoucalumnPmeetisg. Association Will Hare Distinguished Teachers for Guests Not, 21. The Catholio Alumni Association will meet at the Vendome Saturday, Nov. 21.

Hers was an open game where individual men played true foot bah without the mass plays that turned Yale's game into a struggle with brute force. Fulta, Brown's star lialfback, made the most brilliant feature of the afternoon's sport. Just at the befrinning of the second half, with the score 4 to 0 in Yale's favor, Fultz was given the ball with the two teams lined up on Brown's 25 yard line. The plucky halfback, aided by some beautiful interference work by Locke, Murphy and Watson, cleared eighty five yards to Yale's goal for a touchdown. Fultz also kicked the goal and Brown led 6 to 4.

But then Yale began to play her heavy mass plays anfl crossed Brown's territory thiee times In succession. The line up: BROWN. YALE. Murphy, 1. r.

Pennsyl vania shook off the lethargy today that has paralyzed their football playing this Qf thQ 8e Indians by a score of 21 to 0. Not in the history of Intercollegiate football has there been a game that had a more sensational and exciting finish than this afternoon's contest on Franklin Field, and never has any team g'ven a more superb exhibition of plucky up hill play In the face of defeat and grand line bucking than did the gallant redskins of Carlisle. After having been unable to gain throughout the entire game, and after having been steadily driven back upon their goal, the Indians, with ten minutes left to play, secured the ball on their 40 yard line. Then began the greatest exhibition of line bucking ever seen here. The HOW COACH LEWIS VIEWED THE GAME.

Indians used a mass play on the tackles and Metoxen carried the ball. Again and again the sturdy little fullback hurled himself against the Quaker line. Strive as they would, Pennsylvania's line was torn to pieces toy the fierce and desperate assaults upon it. Surely but steadily Quakers made a stand and secured the ball on downs. The teams lined up and the ball was passed to Minds for a kick.

The right end and was thrown by Overfleld two yards from the coveted chalk line. It was a first down and it looked as if nothing could save a touchdown. From thousands of Pennsylvanians' throat came the appealing cry: "Hold them." Straight Into tho mass of men Metoxen plunged. The line held, but none could tell if beneath that mass of men the ana not one or those twenty two men but would nave broken a limp or even his neck to make or save the touchdown. The Quakers crouched close to the ground like so many wild beasts waiting to spring.

With clenched teeth and fierce faces the Indians hurled themselves upon their foes, There was an awful crash and swaying of fighting men, and then the human mass went down into a heap. Again came that I backward, and the touchdown was lost by six Inches. Then the referee's whistle blew and the game was over. Pandemonium broke loose and their fellow students swarmed over the ground and nearly tore the Quaker players to pieces in the endeavor to congratulate them. Pennsylvania played fast, fierce football and bucked the Jndlan line for steady gains throughout.

With the exception of anara(a tHa the Indians' last desperate rally the Quakers' defence was impregnable. In the first half Colbert blocked Wheelock'a kick 'secured a touchdown.

He failed to kick goal. The half dosed with the ball on Worcester's 8 yard line. Exeter braced in the second half and played a whirlwind game, and after two 10 yard runs and one each of 15 and 20 yards, Miller made a touchdown. Williams missed goal.
