years. But in Vincent and Trenchard,
the ends are doing better work than a
year ago.
As a whole, tho Princeton eleven is
stronger than it was last season, while,
as l said in discussing Harvard, the
Yale team cannot be SO strong, with
the loss Of Hofiefnger, Morrison, Hart
we'll and McClung. To replace the first
two men, Yale has two boys, one soven-
teen, the other eighteen years old, who
must necessarily weaken the CEN
tar. :
In looking ut the team work OF the
two eleyens, however, there seems 10 be
marked superiority for Yale. AL
though Princeton claims to have origi-
mated the system OF interference plays,
Yale has developed them more perfect
~ and with greater success. Princeton
started out brilliantly this year as re-
CARDS her team work, but seoms to have
deteriorated, while Yale has slowly but
steadily improved. Princeton will
show some new plays, the most elIec-
tive OF which will be the mass plays,
wedges directed at the tackles, or
the guards, and the revolving orturtle
back wedge, which is so difficult to
stop. These as worked by her strong
men should enable Princeton TO score
on the Blue. But, looking over the
whole situation as it is to-day, L believe
that Yale will win on Thanksgiving
day, both on individual and united
team work

The Earth CoIiidsd With It With DisaS-
trous Results 10 the Heavenly Tramp-lt
Was sIattercd to Pieces-Great 1Ietsoric
Showers EVsrywhcre.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 23.-The
event for which astronomers have been
watching and the general pnblic dread
ing has come to pass. Tonight in its
passage through space the earth crashed
into comet with disastrous results to
the solar tramp.
The statement that the earth and
comet were in collision tonight is made
upon the authority OF Prof. G. NJ.
Snyder, instructor in astronomy in this
city, q city man, a man well and favor
ably known in scientific circles for his
ability and knowledge OF astronomy.
According to Prof. Snyder the comet
struck was not Biela's, but stray one
that was wandering through space
without q fixed orbit or a determined
destination. The comet which was
struck by the earth was In the Andro-
media group.
The force OF the impact between the
two bodies shattered the comet to
pieces and the evidence OF the collision
was plainly visible to all persons out OF
doors tonight in the great number of
shooting stars or meteors that fell from
the heavens.
The shooting stars or meteors were
the fragments Of the unfortunate comet
that chose to cross the earth's orbit at
the moment that body reached the
point OF passage.
Prof. Snyder says that the fate of all
comets is to be eventually broken in
their passage through space by COLI
sion with some OF tire larger heavenly
bodies and tho result is little likely to
be attended by any disastrous cOnse-
uuences.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 2S,-In the ses-
sion OF the Knights OF Labor today a
resolution advocating the abolition OF
the militia was voted down and the fol-
lowing adopted:
"ResOlrsd, That We favor the dissemi-
nation of a patriotic militia in vogue
prior to 1860, namely, allowing tho
state militia to elect its own officers,
and the rank and file to hold their own
arms. And VIC discountenauce the CEN
tralizing of the military power in every
way, object to the expenditure of vast
sums OF the peoples money in building
useless armories, and endorse the pop
ular system in vogue in Switzerland" !"
The boycott on the corks manufac-
tured by Armstrong & Co., Of Pitts
burgh, was ordered to remain.
The passage OF the Davis house bill
now pendiug, to prohibit convict labor
in the United States, was endorsed
The committee on resolutions offered
strong resolutions condemning some OF
the courts for allowing themselves to
be used BY certain labor organizations
and demanding legislation prohibiting
the employment ot Pinkertons.
They also demanded law abolishing
theswcatingsystem, favored thecontinu-
ance OF the state bank tax, and reattirm-
cd the assembly's position favoring the
restriction OF the issuance OF money ex-
cept by the government:
The assembly declared itself opposed
TO closing the Worlds Fair on Sunday
and refused to interfere in the matter oil
selling liquor on the grounds.
The general executive board was in
structed to take steps looking to the
establishment Of q homestead building
and loan association, and the establish
ment OF an insurance ASSOCIATION to
provide funds to enable members to
carry on suits under the law requiring
employees to be liable for accidents to
employees.
A resolution was passed in favor OF
restricting immigration to such persons
as have money enough to support them
selves one year.
A resolution was adopted favoring the
passage OF a law prohibiting any one
from voting who cannot read his ballot,
the provisions OF the law to take effect
five years after its passage. 1t was also
recommended that there be the closest
atIiliation of all farmers and laboring
men who are in sympathy with the
Knights OF Labor.
At q meeting OF the general executive
board late this afternoon 1t was decided
to adjourn to meet at the headquarters
OF the order in Philadelphia and there
take up the work assigned to the board
by the general assembly. Thus the
formulation Of an appeal for aid for the
sufferers by the Homestead strikers and
other important matters will not be
acted on until then.
Messrs. Powderly, Wright, Devlin,
Cavanaugh and others OF the leading
knights, will leave the city tomorrow
and then the general assembly Of 1892,
will become a matter OF history.

good deal Of curiosity about tho charac-

accused OF unmerciiul slugging in the
Cornell match, and there was much re-
verse criticism on the methods OF the
Garden City boys.
Mr.. Fillmore this afternoon said that
he was in favor OF winning foot ball aud
ne would permit roughness SO only that
it did not degenerate into brutality, 81
like Donnelly's methods OF play in gem

The Champion Dies of Typhoid FovOr Rt
Toronto, canadn.

Toronto, Canada.
TORONTO, oxr., Nov. 2S.-William
oConnor, champion oarsman Of Amer
lea, died this afternoon ottyphoid fever,
contracted two weeks ago. Up to yes
terday hopes OF his recovery were en-
tcrtained, but last night his symptoms
becume very grave and this morning
hope was abandoned. o'Cornor had
moi been feeling well since last spring.
His race at 0rilla two months ago did
not tend to improve his condition, and
ever since that event he has been de-
creasing in weight and losing strength.
Before he became i'll he had made ar
rangements to 90 OH trip TO Cuba,
where he intended TO spend few
months.
He began his amateur career at OF
tawa in 1883 by winning the junior
single scull championship Of Canada,
and ended it at Hamilton, where in 1885
no won the senior championship.
Owing 10 charges OF professionalism
havincSbeen preferred against him and
Enricht, whom he had rowed double at
the Hamilton regatta, and although the
Canadian association OF amateur oars
men had acquitted them OF the charges,
the national association oil the United
States debarred him from rowing in any
amateur races in the United States,
and he was compelled to become n
professional. As such, after defeating
men OF less apility, he. IN 1887,
defeated Al Hamm at Toronto bay in a
three.mile race. the time being twenty
minutes, six seconds. His greatest vic
tory was his defeat OF Teemer at WASH
ington on November "a, 1888. After his
defeat Of the American champion he
aspired to become champion OF the
world, but was defeated by searle on
the Thames. He went to Australia
early in 1870, where he met Stansbury
on Parmatta river and was defeated. He
came home in tho following October
and since then ho has not taken part in
any races, excepting those in which he
rowcd double with Hanlan. 0'Connor
was twcnty-nins years OF age and was
born here.

Mr.. Rsglstcr?
ELwooD, IND, Nov. 9S.-The annual
meeting of the stockholders Of the
American Tin Plate Company was held
to-day at the company's office. Presi-
dent A. L. Congor, OF Akron, O., made
the annual report OF the company's
business to the stockholders. after
which the following board of directors
were elected TO serve for tho ensuing
year:
+. EIazen, Cincinnati; w. B. Leeds,
Richmond, Ind; w. p. Hutton. Rich
mond, Ind; J. NJ. overshiner. Elwood,

Ind. The board organized by electing
the following officers for the coming
wear: President, A. j. Congcr; Vice
President, John +. Hazen; Manager

@. S. Tarlton.
The company will proceed to work

the capacity OF the factory to six mill
plant, and will also increase the capa-
city OF the timing department. as the
stockholders and management are de-
termined to make the American tin
plate factory the largest plant of its
kind in America.
The works are now shut down under

seemed to prevail among the stock
holders that the change in the national
administration would not seriously af-
feet the business ot-the company.

BRUssELs, Nov. 2S.-Rumors Of discord
among this British delegates to the
monetary conference here regarding the
attitude to be adopted in the conference
are untrue. The contin entail delegates
are very impatient to learn what the
precise nature will be OF the proposals
Of the American delegates. Many Of
the delegates freely exchange their
views privately, and few are sanguine
that a satisfactory solution will be
found to the currency question. It Is
now certain that a majority Of delegates
are empowered merely to study the
facts advanced ahd to report thereon to
their respective governments. The
Christmas adjournment will give the
delegates ample opportunity for reter-
ence to their governments.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. 2S.-conGress-

BosroY, Nov. 29.-Roturns received
by the executive council from all coun-
ties in the state except Suffolk, show
that 19, ,1S6 votes cast for governor in
the recent election were worthless un-
der the Australian system. one-third
of them were entirely governor, while
the other two.thirds were rendered in
operative by the voters placing a cross
against the name OF VIM. II. Halle, the
Republican candidate, and also against
the name OF Wolcott Hamlin, the Pro-
hibition candidate, tho latter's name
following that OF Mr.. Halle on the Off
cial ballot
The popularity Of the name "Wolcott
Hamlin" doubtless led thousands Of
voters to believe thatwhenthey marked
for Mr.. Halle and then for the name
next following, Wolcott Hamlin, they
were voting for the Republican candi-
date for lieutenant governor, Roger
Wolcott, who in reality was eight names
lower down on the ballot under the
appropriate head lieutenant gov
ernor."
An estimate based on the assumption
that it was clearly the intention OF tho
voter to mark for Mr.. Halle and his as.
sociate on the ticket, Mr. Wolcott, and
mot for Wolcott Hamlin, gives Mr.. Halle
a plurality over Russell in these coun.
ties OF 10000 votes.
