 Philadelphia, Nov. 2s.-overwhelmed' broken and shattered. put fighting des- perately to the last Harvard went down before Pennsylvania in the football game this afternoon by the score of IS to 4.
 The precious four was wrenched out or the jaws of defeat by desperate playing and a reckless disregard of life and limb by the wearers of the crimson.
 The Harvards were defeated, but no disgrace attached to the overthrow, as they played a magnificent game from start to finish, and the loss of five of their best men from injuries weakened them when their help was most needed. The Harvard men showed the effects Of the terrible struggle they went through at Springfield on Saturday last, and in almost every rush some of their bruised and battered players would remain stretched out helpless on the turf. Early in the game Harvard suffered an ire parable loss in the injuries and retire. ment of Captain Emmons, and before the game was over Fairchild. Charles Brewer, Hallowell, and Frank Shaw were borne from the field.
 The Pennsylvanians made their first point three minutes before the call of time in the first half, when Colbert threw Hayes across after catching punt for safety touch down. In the second half the Pennsylvanians scored three touch downs, from two of which goals were kicked, making total score for the red and blue IS.
 Waters made Harvard's one touch down about the middle of the second half, but as Thurber failed at the. try for goal Harvard did not succeed in scoring again. But for the palpable oversight on the part of the umpire Harvard would probably have been shut out.
 The ball had been punted into Penn sylvania's territory and striking on the ground one of Harvard's rushers kicked it against Brookes' body andit bounded back and Harvard man fell upon it. The umpire gave the ball to Harvard. though 1t was clearly an off-side play, and then it was followed by series of fierce plunges through Pennsylvania's line from the 35-yard line, that the crimson carried the ball up and over the goal line of the Pennsylvanians. Then the play was mostly in crimson territory.
 Though the Pennsylvania's play lacked the fierce rush that overbore Princeton, still, as the certainty of victory grew brighter, they played with increased ar- dor and towards the close of the game they were sweeping Harvard restlessly before them. Though Harvard's list of casualties were large 1t was due only the hard game that was being played and the poor condition of the Harvard men, for no slugging or brutal playing was indulged in by either team. Only good, hard, clean football was played by both sides. and throughout the game the best of feeling was shown by all the players.
 The Pennsylvanians tonight are in a delirium of joy, for through long years of defeat they have struggled on to vic- tory, and they close the season with an untarnished record of victory. They claim that they are fairly entitled to the honor of championship of the college football world, as Yale has refused to meet them, and as they have defeated Harvard by a larger score than the blue made
 The Pennsylvanians now await anx- iously the result of the Yale-Princeton game on Saturday. If the Tigers should defeat the New Haven boys the Pennsylvanians will assert that they have a clear title to the champion ship.
 Never was there a more ideal day for a game. The sun came up in cloud1ess sky and crisp, cold air sent the blood dancing through the veins. The day was generally observed as a holiday by stores and offices and from g o'clock a crowd that hourly increased began to surge up and down the main streets in the heart of the city Chestnut street was moving mass of color. Nearly every man and woman Haunted the colors of his or hers university or college, but the red and black of Penn sylvania was worn by hundred, to every one that sported the crimson of Harvard. The intense interest shown in hesuccesses this year of the football team of the University of Pennsylvania in this city has been remarkable. From ragged urchins in the street to staid grayheaded men of business to-day's game was eagerly talked of and the Philadelphia women were out in force hurrying to be early on the grounds where the struggle was to take place.
 At the Metropole, where the Har- yard team was quartered the followers of the crimson gathered in force. A train load of Harvard students arrived from Boston this morning and stood about the corridors discussing the chances of their team and failing to see where they could lose. Captains Knipe and Emmons met this morning and settled upon the officials of the s...a rn,,,-ia r7Jjcs ,f yalo ma . chnsz.ny
