POWERS OMIT SITUATION
says the People Of Scranton Need
Have No Pear Abort Franchise. /.
II. MILL REMAIN in THIS CITY
Ills Version Of the Cause Of the Trouble.
Deed of tho Scranton Franchise
to II. p. simpson Acknowl.
edged in Court.

President Powers. of the Eastern
Base Ball League, said yesterday to an
interviewer in New York city that the
people Of Scranton need nave nc fear
that the Eastern League franchise will
be. taken away from here.
1.-THE case in q nutshell Is this" said
Mr.. Powers: president Belts secured
a Judgment for 1900 against the club
for money advanced for salaries and
other obligations. At the sheriff's sale
the club franchise was bought in by q
lawyer for Mr.. Belts, who afterwards
sold 1t to H. p. Simpson for $2,1S1.' In
addition to this, Mr.. Simpson assumed
a note for $500 and agreed to pay 1916
Of back salaries.
This deal will be approved Of at the
Eastern eLague meeting next month,
but in the meantime the Eastern League
directors. for their W protection, as
sumed the franchise for the non-pay-
ment Of salaries and so secured its re-
naming In the Eastern League.
Want e. Share of the Money.
1.-THE trouble is" continued Mr.. Pow
ers, while the club was in financial
straits there were some directors who
rendered no assistance, but now that
there Is money in sight they are very
much in evidence to claim their share.
There will be an amicable settlement at
Scranton, I am sure, but IL not, the mat
ter will be fully adjusted at our annual
meeting"
President Powers also said that he
had Just received a letter from M. H.
McDermOtt, of FAN River, the new man.
ager for the Scranton club, in which he
stated that he was signing good players
for the Scranton team.
Deed Acknowledged to Mr.. Simpson.
Tyk~u Ch--inr "
court yesterday to have the deeds &C.
according to writs issued from the pro-
t~honotary's office the deed Of the fran
chise and leasehold interest Of the
Scranton Base Ball association was
about to be acknowledged to Harry P.
Simpson, who purchased them for the
sum Of 81, $50. so. when Attorney I, H,
Burns. representing f. j. Coleman,
arose and objected on the ground that
the property sold was personal prom
erty and there Is no authority. Of law
Toy, the sheriff to make or acknowledge
q deed for personal property; also that
the property was not described.
Attorneys r. j. Murray, George 8.
Horn, and eX-Congressman Amerman,
representing Mr. Simpson, opposed At
torney Burns objections; they argued
that the Iced covered real property.
Judge Archibald overruled the excep-
tions. The deed was entered Of record
in the Office of Prothonotary Pryor and
made out to Mr.. Simpson. It was i'm.
mediately recorded in the office of Re.
corder Of Deeds Huester.
1t Is said that Mr.. Burns intends
making application again to court in
a few days to have the sheriff's sale
set aside. Mr.. Coleman was a direc.
tor and stakeholder in the Base Ball
association.

TO.MORROW,s BIG GAME.
Preparing for tho Great Tussle Between
Princeton and Yale,

PrlncotOn n yale.
New York, Nov. 21.-From the great
Interest taken in the Yale Princeton
foot ball game. which Is to be played at
Manhattan Field Saturday afternoon,
one Is much reminded Of the Thanks
city will be lively with college colors,
and probably not less than three thous-
and college students will come from
various 'varsities TO see the game. This
means cheers and life.
Both teams are reported in good con-
dition and confident. In consequence
the betting now being done is entirely
on an even money basis. The teams
will probably go afield even favorites.
Indeed. there are reports that Princeton
Is ofering more money than Yale Is
taking. dollar for dollar. To show lust
what interest there is in the big game,
1t is only necessary to say that every
seat In the covered stand and every box
has been sold; the boxes were sold, in
fact before the public sale took place.
Yesterday the committee placed on sale
the balance of the tickets, and never be-
fore was there such q rush to procure
them.
Princeton and Yale have played an.
nuaily since 1876, this being the twenti.
eth annual game.
It Is almost an assured fact that the
Yale-Bass. left end; Rockers. left
tackle; Chadwick. left guard; H. Cross.
CENTER w. r. Cross, right guard: MIR.
phy. right tackle: Hinksy. right end; Fl:
hoHs. quarter back; Thorne, left half
full back.
Priceton-Cochran, right end; Lea, right
tackle; Rhodes. right guard; Galley. cen.
ter; Rigss, left guard; Church. left tackle;
engarten,. right half back; Armstrong.
left half back; Baird. full back.
Inc rumor that the majority Of the
reserved seats and admission tickets
are In the hands Of SPECTATORS ia de-
MED by all those who are connected
with the management this year In
fact. everything has been done by he
committee to keep the tickets away
from the spectators, but nevertheless
1t was learned today that some Of the
admission tickets were obtained.
Captain Lea will play with his foot
ball team against Yale Saturday. This
means much to Princeton. as he is a
tower of strength and a great source
Of encouragement to the Tigers. There
is now no cOncealing the fact that
Princeton has improved to such an ex-
tent during the past week or ten days
that she will send a team worthy of
Old Nassau into the field against her
old time rival. Wonderful strides have
been made toward perfecting the eleven
in every way and there Is not today a
weak SPOT in the whole team.
There are various reports regarding
the condition Of Yale's team. All that
Is known publicly Is that well-posted
students are anxious to bet even money
the result, but may give odds later
on, This afternoon the team lined up
against the scrub as usual for the last
hard practice before the game. To-
morrow they will take a good rest and
leave for New York in the afternoon.

Birmingham, Ala, Nov. 21.-In a
speech at Demopolis yesterday, United
States Senator James L. Pugh an
nounced that he will not be a candidate
for reelection at the expiration Of his
present term, which ends March 4, 1897.
Senator Pugh Is &c years old, and Is

Oates having announced his senatorial

This turn in affairs convlnces Oates
friends that the latter will stand by
his original declaration not to again
