KANSAS CITY, Mo, October 2Z-Cham-
pion Coroett, speaking to-day Of the $50
600 offer of the kinetoscope Company,
said that il could not be considered at this

figure on a match elsewhere. Speaking OF
the kinetoscope, he said that while 1t was
a great invention, two men battling Tor
the worlds championship would not nave
in mind the benefits TO accrue to the in
ventor when they met in the ring. The
scheme, he said, was impracticaole.

A GOOD GAME AT PRINCETON.

The Tigers aud New York volunteers
Play the Best Game of The Season.
PRINCETON, n. J., October 27.-The
Tigers rolled mp "a points against the
Volunteers OF New York today 10 two
20 minute halves. The Volunteers
withstood the fierce rushes of the
Princeton eleven with marked success
for the first ten minutes, but the Supe-
erior physical condition OF the Tigers
soon began to tell and the ball was
RAPIDLY advanced TO the Volunteers goal
by repeated charges at the centre Of the
Iupe. The Volunteers played q thor
ouRhly scientific game and their ex-
hibition was commeudable in every
respect. Whitcomb, of Yale, played on
their line and carefully wat ched the
team and individual work OF the Tigers.
The features Of the game were the
! effective rushes of Wheeler and Andrus,
Of Princeton, and the all-round work OF
Cobb and EitZsimmOns Of the Nolun-
teerS.
The Interference OF the Princeton
eleven was the best seen this year, and
behind it the backs made all their gains.
The first half was marked throughout
by magnificent playing by both teams,
which the apparent one-sided score Of
% to 0 does not show.
In she second half, the Volunteers
seemed TO have regained new life, and
though she Tigers continued their ag-
Qrsssive play only two. touch downs

If all the sick mothers. invalid daugh-

sufferers Pe-ru-na is the most perfect
remedy in existence. It relieves, it soothes.

THE STRIKE AT ELkHART.
None But Passenger Trains Moving
A Union Organized.

ELKHART, July 2.-Special.-The
strike fever has caught here with start
ling rapidity since Saturday evening
and from the outlook a strike here before
the week ends seems unavoidable. AL
that is needed is the necessary order
from headquarters.
Should a strike be ordered it would tie
UP the larger portion of the L. S. & NJ
S. from Chicago to Toledo and all inter
mediate branches as their division Off
Gals and orders are at this place.
Since 4:30 this morning nothing but
passenger trains have left here for the
west and the freight blockade will be
complete before midnight, which will
stop freight traffic on the Toledo division
as well as on the Chicago division. This
morning the Grand Trunk turned over
several train loads of meat and live
stock at South Bend for shipment and
this has raised the rumpus in earnest
as a result the men are expecting orders
for a general lockout at any minute.
The A r. u. epidemic struck this city
at 80 today, when an official of the
union arrived from Chicago and began
organizing a branch here. AT 1890 he
had 300 members for charter and at p.
m. he had a list of 5000 on records. Rail
way officials are excited.

HOUSE WILL NOT GIVE IN.
viii stand for Tariff Reform of the
Wilson Bill Variety.

WASHINGTON, June 9O.-Chairman
Wilson's return 70 congressional work
has brought about definite understand
ing among members of the ways and
means committee on the essential feat
ures of how the tariff bill is to be
handled when it returns to the house.
There has been no formal meeting of
the committee as yet. and no resolution
defining the program has been passed.
but the plan of procedure is none the
less definitely understood.
The bill will be sent to conference
without any effort TO secure agreement
in whole or in part by the house. The
feeling is So strongly toward standing
by the Wilson bill and resisting the pro-
tective entertainments made by the SEN
ate that the most influential members of
the committee say the Wilson bill in its
substantial and essential features will be
the rock on which the committee will
plant itself with the house behind it.
This feeling has found personal express
sion in certain personal appeals to Mr.
Wilson. His associates have said to him
that an opportunity offered TO few public
men was now presented to him. This
opportunity was 10 stand by the Wilson
bill as against the senate amendments.
1t has been pointed out that state and
local conventions have in their platforms
and resolutions severely arraigned the
senate and have expressed a preference
for the Wilson bill as it left the house
This and the attitude of the press and
public has been presented as amounting
to public demand as we'll as a per-
sonal opportunity for standing by the
Wilson bill. While Mr.. Wilson has
given no public expression on this line
one of his associates on the committee
says that it has made due impression
upon the chairman.
The first meeting of the committee will
be held next week. Mr.. Wilson expects
the bill to pass the senate Tuesday. The
next day being July 4, will not permit a
meeting, but it is probable that the
chairman will call a meeting for Thurs
day next. Members of the committee
said today that every effort would be
made TO expedite the committee stages
of the measure next week. and the opin-
ion was expressed that it would not take
more than a day or two before the for
NAL disagreement and submission to the
conference would be effected
Senators do not seem inclined to vent
ure a prediction as to when the tariff
