American Markets must Not be Sacri-
 feed Nor Ruined by Foreign COmpe-
 titiOh-A Letter to a New Havener.
 The following is an extract from letter to friend in this city by gentleman born in London, Eng:
 How are you affected by the political out lookl I do hope the American people will not be blinded or warped by the anglo maniacs or the dimsy free trade or tariff tinkerings, and instead of crown capped flags and red bandan mas the stars and stripes will float over every foot of American soil from the lakes to the gulf, and that protec- tion to American industries will ever be maintained. We want no dominsncy nor our markets ruined by foreign competition. Knowing England as do and the curse free trade has been to her, I look with horror on the party that is doing its utmost to pander to Johnny Bull, and would put our working men on level with the British workman. If such should come to pass it won't be long before homeless and starving wanderers will be sleeping on the stones of our great cities, just as they do nightly in London. Free trade, forsooth, is free destruction. There fore I heartily pray that the glorious flag of protection will proudly float as the peoples
 
 workingmen cannot see the danger signal.
 PR1NOETON's FOOTBALL TEAM. Bright Prospects for a Very Strong
 EIeven-Other Princeton News.
 A correspondent of the New York Evening Post writes as follows from Princeton: Foot ball is at present the all ab sorbing topic of discussion here. The work of the Princeton f- their prospects for the championship. In every game that has been played Princeton has made larger scores than has either Yale or Harvard against the same opponents. The one fatal deficiency in the team of last year was it's lack of weight, both in the rush line and in the backs. The rush line could not block the heavier men of Yale and Harvard, and the half-backs could not force their way through their rush lines. The team this year has been chosen with special reference to this fault, and is one of the heaviest teams Princeton has ever put out. While there aay still be change in one or two of the po- sitions the practical make up of the Il is this: In the line Hodge, Cook, Irvine, George (cen- ter) ,Janeway, Cowan, Bovaird; quarterback, Charming; half backs, Black and Now ry; fullback, Ames. Janeway, Black and Mowry are the only new men. Janeway was a substitute last year, and his great weight makes him 8 very valuable man in the rush line. Cook, who was @ member of the cham pionship eleven of 'S6 and who was not in college last year, is playing his. old position. Mowry and Black need only @ little experi- ence to perfect their play. Both tackle rath CT high and are liable to lose the ball, and Mowry is very apt to tumble and to miss fair catches. The game with Harvard on the 17th of November is anxiously awaited. days. The number of students enrolled is 667, a larger number than ever before in the history of the college.
 The president is engaged at present in writing the life of Dr. Charles Hodge for the new series entitled "American Religious Leaders" Dean Murray will also contribute the life of Dr. Francis Wayland to the same series.
