A VANDERBILT PALACE.
A Newport Cottage" of White Mar
BILE at Amazing Cost.

Bile at maz1nR Cost.
! A Newport correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Commercial Gazette, writes:
! After the visitor has been about for
awhile among the magnificent homes OF the
| American money kings at Newport he
will surely conclude that there is none Of
them which would not suffer in comparison
! with the new house of William K. Wander
bilt 1t is not finished, but it is so near COM
pletion that an adequate idea can be gained
Of its final appearance.
When You stand before it and consider
that il is only for residence two or three
months at most in a year, that there are ten
or dozen other houses of the Vanderbilts
worthy Of being claSssd with it, you are
filled with admiration OF the edifice in its
wonderful blending of the imposing and the
exquisite, and amazement at the story it
tells of the colossal characters of the fort
American families.
1t differs from all the other Newport
houses in being built entirely of white mar
ble-not touch of color mars the dazzling
whiteness of the beautiful building. The
house, a veritable marblespelace, fronts on
Bellevue avenue, and Its near outlook is on
the cliffs and toward the sea.
In its design it is a reproduction of the
old marble palaces of Greece. The porches
and terraces are reached by broad marble
steps. and Immediately before this eastern
portico, with its fluted Corinthian columns
are marble basins and statues and fountains
The entrance from the portico is 25 feet
wide. and the house has length of 1876 feet
by lo7 feet in depth. The walls are built
double, with ventilating spaces between,
aud the structure rests on supports of iron.
The interior, in space, loftiness and embel-
lishment will fully correspond with the
magaificence of the exterior.
Striking as is the general effect of the
building, 1t is on close inspection that you
fully appreciate its beauties in its superb
carving and ornamentation. The designs
are ali from models of the ancient sculpt-
ures and executed by the most noted art
lists of to-day. There are carvings upon the
exterior of the edifice that are as delicate
as iacework. aud the designs upon the
window caps and panels, taken frorn the
life and mythology of Greece and Rome,
are very beautiful. Seen from the front
through the foliage Of an evening. when it
is lighted by electricity and full of life and
brilliant, the house will look like fairy
palace. There are swarms Of laborers at
work upon it, but it will not be finished
this season.

Ewing Will Stay.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 1O.-Captain William
Ewing is at his home here unmoved by the
exciting events that are taking place at the
metropolis. New York will certainly see
him in harness next season. "Will play
ball for the New Yorks?" he asked in re-
sponse to query of San correspondent.
"Well, 1 guess yes. My arm is as good as
it ever was on everything except quick snap
throws. 1 am suree it will come around all
right next spring About the middle of
January 1 will start for the Hot Springs,
and L will stay there until the opening of
the baseball season. If the waters there
could cure Latham's crooked arm they can
benefit mine. We will have a team in New
York, and a good one at that. You can
wager that Richardson and Glasscock will
be with the New Yorks. There is where
they want to play, and both are under con-
tract to the New York club. Richardson is
signed for three years with the New York
club; so is Glasscock. would as well see
John Reilly on first base as Roger Connor.
John Ewing is as good as signed. He will
stick TO New York. j think the League
race next season will be better than it was
this year"

THANKSGIVING DAYS GAME.
The Auction Sale of Tickets Is Proving a
Tremendous Success

Tremendous Success.
New YORK, Nov. 10.-[ Special. Is. j.
Cornell, who has the management of the
Thanksgiving Day game of football between
Yale and Princeton at Manhattan Field, has
been besieged during the past few DAYS by
people desirous of securing seats.
The auction sale on Saturday night was
voted tremendous success The pre-
miums ON boxes, coach stalls and choice
seats reached big figures in nearly every
case. Everything left over after the anc-
tion sale Saturday night was placed on sale
at the box office of the Manhattan Athletic
Club Theater, Madison avenue and Forty
fifth street Captain Cornell adheres strictly
to his rule to sell tickets only to those who
wish them for their own use and that of
their immediate families. This has the re-
suit of almost entirely shutting out the
spectators. The latter, however, resort to
every artifice to secure tickets. They make
written requests over different names and
give them to Mutual District messenger
boys to procure tickets. Captain Cornell in
every instance refused to honor any such re-
quests and the ticket spectators were COM
pletely left and the followers of Yale and
Princeton were given the best of the bar
gain. At 5 o'clock last night the covered
grand stand was entirely sold out. not
single seat being left. Therefore the only
chance that remains for the Princeton and
Yale graduates to secure seats is to make
application to President Wright at Yale
and President Farrand at Princeton.
Every private box and all coach and car
riage space has been sold. The sale of seats
upon open reserved stand 'D'' will begin
at the Manhattan Athletic Club Theater
ticket Office at o'clock this morning.
Capt. Cornell has decided not to sell any
admission tickets until three days before
Thanksgiving. This is to prevent any coun-
terfeit tickets being made. The tickets have
been printed by the American Bank Note
Company and will of course be hard to Jun
terfeit tickets there will be large force of
detectives employed to prevent the sale of
any in the event of their being offered for
sale, and the public is warned not to buv
admission tickets except at certain
designated places
Capt. Cornell has received fabulous offers
for reserved seats, private boxes and coach
spaces, but he cannot furnish them.
The indications are that the attendance at
this years game will be the greatest ever
known in the annals of American sports.

to inspect the new boat being built for the Ciucn-

THE pleasure yacht Alene aground yesterday
below the Davis Island dam. Both propellers were
broken and her sides damaged considerably.
COLONEL MERRILL Informed the shippers that
the new dixie at Marietta Island has been finished,
and there is now waterway of $50 at Marietta. or
100 feet more than formerly. The dam ut Blenner-
hassett Island is nearly finished also he said, SO
that pilots need never stop again going up the
river, and there is good channel down the right
hand shore. The trouble at Logstown. he said, Is
that the channel is unnatural. In conclusion,
Colonel Merrill spoke hopefully of the work on
river improvements, and said that in a few years
many difficulties which beset river navigation
would be Obvtated
AsIEETING was held yesterday in the Monon-
gahea House between Colonel Merrill, United
United States Navy, and the rivermen. Colonel
Merrill and Commander sheppard are on commit
tee appointed to examine into the manner Of light
ing bridges on the Monongahela and Allegheny
rivers. Captains John A. Wood, W. B. Rodgers,
A. J. Gould, Mallory, Boles, Bowman and Nelson
testified before the committee and also made short
speeches. Captain Woods suggested an electric
lamp be placed at the Davis Island dam. Colonel
Merrill stated that the best way to secure that
would be to petition the Secretary of War, which
will probably be done. The rlvermcn want regials
on bridges instead Of the present arc lights. =

QUITE A NOVEL PLAN.
If Steve Farrell Beats the American Record
He Will Get the Stakes.

He Will Get the Stakes.
The hackers of Smith and Farrell met
yesterday afternoon to try and settle the
difficulty relative to last Saturdays foot
race at Recreation Park. After consider
able discussion it was agreed that if Farrell
can run 300 yards on the track at New Cas-
tie in 314 seconds Smiths hacker, John
Quinn, will allow Farrell to have all the
stake money up for last Saturdays race.
This arrangement was come to because
Quinn claimed that Smith had run 800
yards in 81 seconds in a trial ON the track
named. That time is a quarter second bet
ter than the American record, so that Far
rell has quite task before him, but he is
confident of doing it. The distance that
Smith ran at New Castle was marked of,
and if it is found to be short Farrell will
get the money without running. If Farrell
fails to accomplish his task each party will
get their $500 back. If the track is wet
the trial won't be made until the weather
and track are favorable. The plan of set
tlement is certainly unique one, and pre-
sumably Farrell has all the worst of it.

THE YALE ELEVEN.
Couple Of Changes Made in the Team to
Make Matters Better.

A couple OF Changes Made in the Team to
Make Matters Better.
NEW HAVEN, CONN, Nov. 1O.-Captain
McClung and Josh Hartwell made couple
Of changes in the Yale eleven TODAY as a
result Of their visit to Harvard and Phila-
delphia on Saturday. Winter was trans
ferred from left to right tackle, changing
places with Wallis. The move was made
with view to the Harvard game for the
purpose of putting Wallis against Upton
and Winter against Newell. Newell proved
too much for Wallis last year, and this wear
will be assigned to Winter, who is physical
ly much more powerful man.
Hartwell was taken from left and placed
at right, his old position being taken by
Hinckey, who was thought to be too light
to face "Slugger" Mason, of Harvard.
Hartwell held conference with STAGE
after Saturdays game at Cambridge. and
learned the details of the trick by which
Stagg scored against Harvard. 1t was tried
at the field practice this afternoon and
worked like charm. A run of 20 wards
through the center and touchdown re-
suited.
Crosby was taken from the Varsity this
afternoon and placed in the scrub eleven.
1t is pretty certain that the make up of the
team which will face Princeton and Harvard
will be as follows: Hinckey, left end:
Wallis, left tackle; Hefelfnger, left guard;

AN AWFUL DISRUPTION.
Association Football kickers Take Act1o
and Jeopardize the League.

Association Football Kickers Take Actlon
and Jeopardize the League.
There is an awful disruption in the West
ern Pennsylvania Football League. gen
eral meeting of that organization was held
last evening in the Natatorium to hear four
protests regarding games played, and as
result all the protests were sustained, and
Secretary Macpherson intends to resign;
Probably never in the history OF athletic
organizations were more stupid and llloglcal
decisions arrived at. Pittsburg seemed to
be the target of everybody's envy under al!
circumstances. Even decisions that had
been made by referees on their own Judg-
ment and observation were reversed and
discarded. 1t didn't need violation OF
rule last evening to cause the majority to
''sit" on the referee of any protested game;
it only needed somebody to say that the
referee saw play different to somebody
else who was opposing the Pittsburg team
and that settled it.
In one instance, a protest was sustained
simply because Secretary Macpherson had
appointed Pittsburg man to referee
Plttsburg game. The referee In question
was Fred Goodwin, gentleman whom
every team in the League has desired to Of
fciate for them. The contesting teams were
the Pittsburgs and the McDonalds. The
latter were beaten and hence their wall.
But there is no rule demanding that the
referee OF any game shall or shall not reside
at any particular place. In view of this
fact MIR. Macpherson took the decision as an
insult to himself and he could not we'll do
otherwise. And let it be said that he has
done more for the League than any four
men in it. He stated last evening that he
is determined to wash his hands of the en-
tire affair.
The protests were: Bloomfield protested
against game won by Pittsburg by to 1.
No goal was protested, but the protest was
sustained simply because the majority
thought the referee, an old football player,
was incompetent. The game will be played
over on the first open date
New Castle protested a game won by
Homestead, the protest referring to dis
puted goal. The protest was sustained. The
game will be played next Saturday at
Homestead.
Bloomfield protested a game given to
Mcdonald because the former had gone to
the wrong grounds and consequently were
not at the grounds selected for the game.
Protest sustained and the game will be
played at Mcdonald next Saturday
Mcdonald protested game won by Pitts
burg, 20 2. Protest sustained
AS result the Pittsburg team, by an evil
dent conspiracy, has been dragged down
from a close second to tie for last place.
This is not creditable to those who so un-
fairly aided in the work

for grounds, but would have to guarantee
salaries of players, and big salaries at that.
1t would entail a risk of SIS, 900 or 500, 900,

anybody who would assume such risk at
