THE MEN WHO PLAY. The Harvard College's Final Selection of Players to Go Against Tale's Sturdy Fellows. KIMICK SELLS OUT HIS STOCK. Too Many Business Care3 Prompt Him to Make This Move. -MARE BALDWIN SEALED ACT-SIGNED.

A General Coins Orer of Facts and 1'andcs of Interest to the World. Boston, Nov. 18. The Harvard will line tip against Yale in next Saturday's game in following order: Rush line, Hallowell; right end, Newell; right tackle, Mackie; right guard, Hangs; center, Dexter; left guard, "Waters; left tackle, Emmons; left end quarter back, Gage; halfbacks, Corbett and Lake; full back, Trafford. Last year there was a substitute for each individual position and that substitute was not pected to fill any other place this year.

The team will be accompanied. by substitutes who can acceptably fill any of two or three positions if necessary. Fearing and Gray are substitute backs. If halfbacks are hnrt, Fearing will be the first man to go in. In some respects Fearing is considered as good as either Lake or Corbett.

A Great Ground Gainer. He is a powerful runner and, though not eo good a ground gainer possibly as the two regular half backs, he is doubtless superior to either of them in rush line blocking on the defensive. Should Captain Trafford be injured and forced to retire, either Corbett will drop back to Trafford's place and Fearing will be subsriited. or, if Fearing is already in the Gra wih take Trafford's place. In the verv improbable cac of more than two being disabled, White, the longdistance runner, will go in.

That is not Harvard's limit behind the line, for on a pinch Gage can be used at half back and Cobb at quarter. In case Deleter's twisted knee will not allow him to play, Vail will probably face Morrison, and noxt to Vail in the list of guards comes Highlands. They are each si's feet tall, and weigh 1S5 pound) apiece. Mason is a sort of a double-barreled substitute, as he will be used either at the tackle or end should the emergency arise. The next snb-tackle is Fitzhugh, who has played on the second 11 at right tackle.

Collamore would come tor end should Mason be drafted earlier in the game. Big Shean has pushed Bangs hard during the last week for the center position and would get a chance in the game at Springfield if rnything should happen to Bangs. Bantoul will be with the team a Sprinefield and can play either guard or tackle. The other men had been used from time to time in the second 11 corresponds to the College side at Yale. They will not all be taken to Springfield as players.

The game went off smoothly, not a man being hurt, ana there were no unpleaS' ant wrangles. Both the president of the college and of the High school witnessed the game, together with some 300 men and bo3-s. The University Against the Genevas. The third championship game ot football in the series of games between the "Featherweights" of the Western University aud the "Heavies" of Geneva College will be played at.

Liberty Park next Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Considerable interest is attached to this game, as the Genevas are the second rtrongest college team in this end 'of the State, and the 'varsity team has made the best fckiwiug of any eleven, considering their weight, that has played in Pittsburg this season. This is the first appearance of the Geneva team in Pittsburg. Boston "Heats New York Again. Boston, Nov.

IS. Sjiccial Boston Athletic Ciub brawn and science again triumphed to-day over the New York Athletic Club on the football field in a red-hot, hard-rlaved came. The score was 22 to 0. Last year the content between the same clubs was lought in Xew York, and the score was 36 to 0 in favor of the Bean-eaters. Pennsylvania College Tins Easily.

At Easton yesterday, Lafayette, with a crippled team, was defeated by the University ofPennsylvania. The score was 12 to 10 in fiver cf the 'Varsity boys. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN! Secretary Scandrett Sjys Conghlin Has Not Signed and Palmer O'Neil Says He Has. Secretary Scandrett, of the local club, stated emphatically yesterday that a player named Cougblin has net been signed by the local club. J.

Palmer O'Neil, an ex-official of the local club, says he has. Who is telling the truth? Since O'Neil has been repudiated by the local club because of his unreliability and loquacity, he seems to be doins all he can to brine the club into disrepute. Whether Coughlin has been signed or not, it might be better if Mr. O'Neil would be truthful to his old colleagues and not betray their secrets in the hope of getting a little notoriety that will gain him nothing. The question of whether or not an unknown plaver named Coughlin has been iigned by the local management, is not of t-o much" importauce as is the question of the private eBort of the honored gentlemen of the club to secure a good team, being made prematurely public by anybody, who, through a spirit of revenge wants to ruin the entire business.

A man may even go into obscurity honorably: It is safe to bay that up to the present time the responsible officials of the club have not been npprised of the signing of Couehlin. This beins: so, it may be well if Mr. O'Neil ivill allow officials to look after their own business and if everybody does that there will be less chance of discor'd anions the club members. NIMICK SELLS HIS STOCK. Ho Is Tired of Baseball and Is Now Out or It A.

Nimick, whose name has been associated with the Pittsburg baseball club for many years, is now a "private." He yesterday sold out his stock to W. C. Temple, who is an enthusiast and supporter of the game. Mr. Niniick's reasons for retiring are expressed in a word.

He says: "I am tired ot baseball as a business, but you will always find me occupying a chair in the grandstaud when the game goes on." The amount of stock he held in the club was about 513,000, par value, but the purchaser did not take it at initial quotations. "What Mr. Temple gave, or his object in securing the stock, is neither here nor there. At the same time the transaction comes in the wake of other matters in the Pittsburg club deals, and it will not be a great surprise to sporting people if J. Palmer O'Neil and Mr.

Nimick would join forces. By the way, Mr. O'Neil said he had a scheme for next year which would fill a park. Playing in the Souih. New Orleans, Nov.

18. Al Law-son, of Detroit, member of the All-America Baseball Club, en route for the island of Cuba, has completed arrangements to play a series of games in this city against the local clubs.

McClelland has the following to say in answer to Peter Priddy's late challenge: "I will run Priddy, if he will run in a rink, a 3 or 10-mile race, for Sl.000 a side. If he docs not accept this challenge" it is open to the world." Mr. McClelland is desirous of a sweepstake which is open to the best long distance runners, Seibert being especially mentioned. "I will also run Jack McCabg of Browns- viue, ii uoes not accept my proposition. "I am not bluffing, and let Seibert and others who claim big honors speak for themselves.

TnB Dispatch sporting editor will answer all inquiries regarding the matter." Pittsburg's Interest in Cricket. Cricket will take a prominent part in our outdoor sports next season. In Bloomfield they are taking steps now to organize a club to take the field as soon as the season opens. Tbe parties working toward this end are persons who have been raised to the game, and, as a result, they look for them to place a team on the held that will show to advantage the many good qualities of this game. If the interested ones go in for cricket this season as they have for football, it is thought there will be a team which will be able to distinguish themselves for championship honors.

Pittsbcko enthusiasts do noj favor the 12 Club League. SIaiik Baldwin is happy after signing with tho Pittsburzs. Boyle, it is said, will get in Cincinnati next season. J. Palmer O'Neil says he is not out of tho" baseball business.

Important Proclamation Issued by the Deputy Mandarin Reforms That Ho Expects to Make New Orden to the Police aud Constabulary.

Xew York, Xov. 18. Special A letter dated Amoy, October 6, has been received at the foreign mission rooms of the Reformed Church in America from Rev. P. W.

Pitcher, missionary in Amoy, China. In it he writes: Ihe Deputy Mandarin has issued a procla mation in which he says "tho provincial examinations have just been held, and large numbers or scholars are returning to their native places. Amoy is a seaport open to foreign trade, where persons from all parts of the woildlive together. It Is very easy for bad characters to appear. Tho constables, bailiffs and water police aie commanded to give their assistance to the military forces in searching for and arresting suspicious characters.

Keepers of monasteries, temp'es, Buddhist or Taoist temples, both large and small, on the hills, innkeepers, opium shop keepers and others in Amoy, must not give lodging to persons of whose proceedings there is any doubt, or to bad characters fiom other places, or to bands of street players. All inns, large or small, must keep books in which the name, surname and proper place of abode of every guest is to be clearly stated, and the number coming and going. The register for each day must on that day, after tho sounding of the first watcli be sent to my yamen, lor mp to strike out any objectionable names. Any one venturing to disregard this regulation or to treat it as of little importance will assuredly be at once arrested and severely punished. My orders being given must bo obeyed on pain of incurring the terrors of the law." This proclamation of the Deputy Mandarin was followed by two others of a similar nature, one by the Admiral of the port aud the other by the High Mandarin.

This will give some "idea what precautions the Chinese officials are taking to forestall tho present agitation in the north, which is threatening to extend through theprovinces of the south. Grave fears have been entertained at Foo Chow. Rumors were afloat that tho at that place was to be taken by tho malcontents and afterward they were to march upon Amoy. It is quite evident that the Ka-Lo-Hoe (tho secret society) has been making eiforts to create a disturbance here at this port, now-evcr. it has come to nothing, and wo believe it will not succeed, simply because of the promptand united action of tho Consular body, in unison with the Chinese officials In Amoy.

Affairs are more quiet, therefore, at Foo Chow and Amoy. Still, there is much instability nndnn unsatisfactory condition of matters in Central China, duo to what is demanded by the powers. The foro'en powers have made enormous demands for indemnities on account of the late riots. They demand 6,000.000 taels (a tael is worth nearly $1 50); they demand that Hunan lie opened to lorelguers; that all offending Mandarins that is. those who were in anyway connected with the riots on the Yangtise river bo tried China might grant the first nnd second, ana ii? arpwryn some dignity as a nation, but what wouldue left if she yielded to tho latter demand.

GENERAL KB AFT' DE0WNING. He Met His Fate While Trying to Ford the Camnlatts River. Xew Orleans, Xov. 18. Special The steamship Stillwater, from Central American ports, briugs news confirming the report of the drowning of General E.

Kraft, Commandant of Puerto Cortez, the principal port of the north coast of Spanish Honduras. General Kraft was returning from one of his mining properties in the interior, and attempted to ford on muleback the Camalatte river. A freshet was running out of the river, and never in the history of the country had the water been so high. The General was swept from his mule and drowned, and at last accounts bis body had not been recovered. General Kraft's death is severely felt all along the Honduranian coast.

He controlled the only railroad in the oountry, and was a very popular and prominent man. He leaves his f.imilv, consisting of a wife and three children, in good circumstances. Another Plea of No Jurisdiction. Haekisbueg, Xov. 18.

Special The absence of Secretary Harrity from the city prevented a meeting of the Board of Property from being held to-day. The members of the board present agreed to adjourn until January 20, when argument will be heard on a number of important claims. Ex-Senator Petriken, attorney for Harry Petriken, of Huntingdon, who has" made application for the patent to 277 acres of valuable farm land in Rush township, Huntingdon county, said a patent was granted his nephew in" Xovembcr last for the land. A few weeks later the patent was annulled by the board, and now Mr. Petriken seeks to have it re-granted.

A protest was filed with the board yesterday by Attorney Petriken, declaring that it had no jurisdiction in the case. In Defense of the Miners' Hospital. HabbiseuP.g, Xov. 18. Special Colonel J.

THE MERCURY RISES. A Probability. That a Snow Storm WilJ Come From tho East. the scABcrrr op gas continuesJ Many Poor Call on the --Department of Charities for Aid. COAL TO-BE USED AT THE COURT HOUSE The minimum temperature was a degree higher yesterday than the day before and with little wind blowing made life at least worth living.

The forecast for to-day is for warmer weather and a possibility that it will snow. Indications from the East could not be received on account of the wires not working, but it is believed by the Signal Service people that a snow storm is camping out some place along the Atlantic coast and that it will visit Pittsburg some time between now and Thanksgiving. Gas was still more conspicuous on account of its absence yesterday than the day before. Complainants filed into the gas companies' offices with their stories of woe, as familiar to the clerk in charge as his daily prayers. The clerk, in turn, with old time assurance, gave out the information that a new field was being opened, having force enough to run a rival with tho region below.

Broken Pump Canso Trouble. The People's Company is receiving many complaints, and as an excuse for the shortage it is stated that two pumps at Murraya-ville are broken, but that they will be repaired to-day. There was considerable suffering among the 'poor yesterday and the day before. Xumerous requests for aid were made on Chief Elliot, of Pittsburg, and Chief Grubbs, of Pittsburg. Very Tew have laid in supplies of coal, and when the cold spell caught them without money or fuel they besieged th- fcharity departments.

schools closed on account of a shortage of gas, and many of the teachers expressed themselves in favor of a return to coal, even if it requires more work and makes more dirt. It is feared among shippers the lake trade will be closed, and that on account of a scarcity of cars on the Pennsylvania Railroad freight transportation will be delayed. Work on rolling stock is being pushed as rapidly as possible by the company. Conrt Had to Adjourn. At the Court House the gas was so scarce that sufficient steam to operate the elevators could not be kept up and during the greater part of the day nearly all the people in the building were obliged to wear overcoats.

The lady clerks in the Recorder's office were sent home in the morning because their office was too cold to work in and at noon Stowc adjourned Common Pleas Court Xo. 1, until to-day on account of the complaints of the jurors. In none of the boilers used for heating the large building could twenty pounds of steam be raised. A battery of nine boilers was used, but the supply of steam raised was totally inadequate. The fireplaces were used in the offices, but the court rooms and corridors were cold.

There was one natural gas company yesterday which was fully prepared for the "cold snap" the Manufacturers. The Manufacturers was already well supplied, but in addition to its ordinary resources struck on a creat well on the Pol lock farm. The private consumers and the glass houses on the Southside, which are supplied by this company, will be likely to experience no shortage whatever this year. Increased Demands for Drugs. The cold weather is booming the retail rug trade.

The sudden change in coughs. The demand tor patent medicines and cough syrups 13 always better in winter than during "the summer. Druggists reported that after the people get used to the cold the business is not so brisk. For some reason at the opening of winter there is always a good call for medicine. Coughs and slight throat troubles usually cure themselvs toward spring.

Since the cold snap started in the prescription clerks in the drug btores have been unusually busy. This doesn't mean that the death rate will be higher, but the slight winter ailments have come. Jewelers also state that the weather has a great deal to do with their business. The demand for rings and precious stones increases at the opening of winter, but this is probably due fco the approach of the holidays. This year the local jewelers are afraid that the Christmas trade will be light.

I (I bikucuuwi iuuiiuwiwuui THE SILAS GRAY CASE. Governor Latta Still Hard at Work on It. THINKS THE-PISONER INNOCENT. The Attorney's Untiring Efforts for an Unfortunate Client. THE CONVICT COLLECTING EVIDENCE Ex-Lieutenant Governor John Latta, of "Westmoreland county, was in Pittsburg yesterday continuing his effort to secure a pardon for Silas Gray, now serving a life sentence in the penitentiary for the killing of an old woman in "Westmoreland county some 12 years ago.

The case of the unfortunate Gray will not down. "While it is alleged that Gray was convicted on circumstantial evidence, and while the Pardon Board has on several occasions been furnished with substantial and convincing evidence "that Gray was not guilty of the crime for whieh he is being pnnished, Gray himself has never tired ot his efforts in his own behalf, and what correspondence he has been allowed and whatever communication he has enjoyed with the ontside world, has been in regard to securing his freedom. Collecting the Testimony. He has assisted Governor Latta, his attorney, in collecting evidence, and Latta, confident that his client is much abused and is positively innocent, has supplied the money required to collect "the testimony and furnish it at the different occasions to the Board of Pardons. Mr.

Latta is not rich, but he has given generously to the cause of Gray, with no hope of re ward other than to secure what he firmly believes to be simple justice to a poor client. "I am following up a new lead in the Gray case," Mr. Latta said. "I defended Gray against the charge of murder. I familiarized myself with his case and I said then, as I say now, he is an innocent man.

I do not talk as a paid -attorney, for Gray never had any money to employ counsel, either before "or after his conviction. I carried the case through the courts to the finish, and while I was able to save his neck I was not able to save him from a life sentence in prison. I am looking after a man who is now running an elevator somewhere in Pittsburg. I do not have his name now, but I hope to he able to get it. He is said to have valuable information in the Gray case.

After I find him I will again present the case to the Pardon Board, and will probably for the last time ask that Gray be released." Knows All About It Himself. Lieutenant Governor Latta was a member of the Board of Pardons from 1875 to 1878. He is familiar with the evidence required to secure a pardon, and he contends that the Pardon Board since his term have either been making a personal fight against him by refusing Gray's pardon or have been slow to extend justice to a prisoner. Governor Lotta has been a Democrat all his life. He has been in active politics almost since boyhood.

When a young man he was chosen District Attorney of his county. In the early sixties he was elected to the State Senate, where he served two terms. In 1874 he was elected the first Lieutenant Governor under the Constitution of 1873. In his extended career he has nsver been more iaithful to a public trust than he has been to the interests of his convict client.
