he had known Of his own personal knowI-
edge that large quantities of firearms and
ammunition had been recently shipped
clandestineIy to Hawaii on lumber yes-
sells. lie had heard that load of arms
came from the East over the Great North
erl to Puget Sound, where it was trans
terred to small tug which intercepted
two sailing vessels in the straits below
Port Townsend after they had cleared
from the CuStom-hOuSe and there trans
ferred the cargo. The shipments were
originally marked as general merchan-
disc, destined for the Sound, but the car
was sIde-tracked at a small station near
tide water, and its contents transferred to
the tug.
All this occurred early in September,
ana after the arms were placed in vessels
the tug returned, and several cipher tele-
grams, it Is said, were sent TO Honolulu
via San Francisco and Vancouver. That
the contraDand consignment was in
tended for the Royalists there can be no
doubt, owing to the surreptitioGs move
ments surrounding the shipment
1t is also stated that consignment Of
rifles and cartridges from the East was
shipped over the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road and shipped from Vancouver to san

shipment to Hawaii less than year ago
1t was marked as merchandise, and con-
signed to WeIl-knOwn shipping TIrm in
Honolulu unfriendly TO the new Govern
ment. The information came TO the
Customs Department,andi it was promptly
sent 10 the Secretary OF the Treasury
From statements made here by persons
engaged IN business transactions with
vessels plying i'll the Hawaiian trade
there is every reason TO believe that army
stores and munitions of war have been
smuggIed into Hawaii, and at d prear-
ranged time every Royalist in the coun-
try Will suddenly appear we'll armed and
prepared to overthrow the present Gov
ernment.
That, taken with the recent assertion of
royalists in Honolulu TO the effect that
the United States Government had prom
lsed the Queens ENJOYS who went TO
Washington not to interfere in case OF
another hawaiian rebellion. and the
present unsettled condition of political
affairs in the islands, lends much color to
the supposed discovery of plot to vio-
late the neutrality laws between Hawaii
and the United States.

SPRINGFIELD (Alass,), Nov. 23.-To-
morrow afternoon on historical Hapden
Park the elevens of the Yale and Har-
ward Colleges will compete in their an
nual football contest. The young ath-
letes of both colleges have never trained
harder than for this great event. The
change in the rules requiring a more
open game has been the means of equal
iZing the respective strength of football
teams all oyer the country, and has made
the probable result of this contest more
problematical than ever. Each team has
its partisans. but Yale, by reason of the
prestige gained by her sturdy kickers in
the past twenty years, in which time the
Harvards have won only one game, is a
favOrite.
Harvard was never more confident.
She as the best eleven that has worn the
crimson in years, and 9ale's defeat last
year by Princeton has shown that repre-
sentatives of ''Old Eli' are not invinci-
BILE. Consequently Harvard will have
her friends, and more of them than ever.
Neither team Will have any advantage
in weight. The elevens that will face
each other do not vary pound in the ag
gregate, Harvard's gross weight being
$50 and ale i, SJl pounds.
Two more evenly matched teams never
faced one another. 1t will all come down
to a case of team work. The one that
shows the most ability in this respect
will win. Individually there seems to
be no advantage for either. Both have
new men in their teams that have never
taken part in varsity contests of the i'm
portance of this one. Both, too, have sea-
soned men, heroes of the big games in
XVhn NUilar, aI,
other in the arena will tight TO the death
for the glory and honor of their alma
mater. 1t Will be battle royal and will
be viewed by thousands of excited en-
thusiasts.
The indications for tomorrow are fair
and warm, and Springfield refuses to be-
lieve that the good weather of former
years is not to be duplicated. The trains
tonight began TO bring in the first dele
CATION OF enthusiasts and with the ar
rival OF the teams the usual enthusiasm
began to show itself. The city is in gala
attire, the shop windows and fronts of
buildings being decorated.
The \ ale team with it's coaches and a
few heelers arrived at 2:45 p. NJ on a
special train. The coaches were taken in
hand by the newspaper men. Giant
Hetfelhnger loomed up about as usual.
In reply 10 aiquery he said: "Of course
we hope to win. IL we are beaten we can
have no excuse except they played better
than we did, for we are in fine condi-
tion."
The special train bringing the Crimson
squad pulled into the station just before
q O'Clock tonight, and the men were
greeted with cheers from the crowds as
they filed into the waiting carriages which
carried them to their quarters. The
eleven will spend the night but a short
distance from their blue-legged rivals on
State street.
There is little or no betting here, simply
because very few Harvard men have made
their appearance. The odds tonight are
five TO three that Yale will win, and even
money that Harvard will not score.

Father Noonan Ordered to Penance
in a Convent in spain.
Los ANGELES. Nov. 23.-Father joseph
Noonan, who has until recently officiated
at the altar OF the Church OF Our Lady in
this city, has gone to Europe, upon the
request Of the superiors in the church. in
whose eyes he has committed grievous
sin.
At intervals for some time hints have
been dropped that the reverend gentle
man looked too much upon the wine
when 1t was red, and also that he was
given to frequent gay company in the
Main Restaurant, where in the privacy of
the upper rooms dainty Suppers have
been served at late hours, of which he did
not partake alone. This. with other evil
dence IN the possession of Bishop Mont
gomery showing that Father Noonau had
strayed from the narrow path, warranted
the Bishop IN adjudging the priest guilty
OF lapslng from the teachings of the
church, and he was sentenced TO do PEN
ance for the space of two years, which
time will be spent in the convent at Sala-
manca, Spain.
Father Noonan is we'll known in San
Francisco, where he attended school in
his boyhood and where one of his reIa-
Ives at one time served as Sheriff of the
0ouAIS' IL LIS carry youth EaIner MOO
nan was known to be fond of gay COM
pany, and among his friends and ac-
qualntances was the embryo worlds
champion James Corbett, and it is part of
his private history that he has mad on

than once, and not made bad showing
either.
On the expiration of Father Noonan's
sentence he will return and resume his
prlestly duties in this city, unless his
superiors shall determine otherwise.

SUGAR BOUNTY.
Suit Growing Out of the Repeal of the
Act OF Congress.

suit Growing Out OF the Repeal of the
Act OF Congress.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The contro-
versy between the sugar-growers of the
country and the United States Govern
ment, growing out of the repeal of the Act
granting bounty OF half cent a pound
on all sugars grown in the United States
and Territories by the new tariff. but by
subsequent refusal of the Treasury De-
partment TO pay bounties on the sugar
grown in the present year, reached the
first stage in progress to definite legal
settlement to-day.
j. Archibald Murray, an attorney of
New York, filed to-day in the Court
Claims three suits, identical in character
and all seeking to recover from til
Government sums of money alleged to be
equally due the complainants as bounty
on sugar raised by them in the year
1894. The Chino Valley Beet Sugar
Company of California sues for S43, FL,
the Norfolk Beet Sugar Company for
S3, 903 and the OXnard Beet Sugar Com
pany for Sl1,7S2.
The complaints are based on the allie
CATION that the United States, by Act of
Congress granting a bounty of half
cent pound upon all sugars grown in
the United States and Territories, entered
into legal contract with the complainants,
as we'll as all other sugar growers, and
led them, by its terms, to undertake the
culture of beets and other plants from
which sugar is obtained, but which could
not have been protitably pursued without
the benefits of such a contract The
claim is further made that the crops of
the complainants were growing and the
sugar resulting from them was in process
of making long before the passage by
Congress of the measure repeating the
provisions of the Act granting the bounty,
and that the Government has no right TO
withhold the payment of the bounty al
legged to be due.
The case will probably be pushed to an
early hearing before the Court of Claims,
and will then be taken to the United
States Supreme Court for final adjust
ment 1t Is understood that the suits are
brought as test cases and will be vigor-
ously contested, as an amount of about
Sll ZOO, 900 is at stake in the controversy.
