ATHLETICS.
Yale Fails to Score Against the Boston
Athletic Association-A stubbornly Com
tested Game

Yale Fails to Score Against the Boston
Athletic Assoelation-A Stubbornly Con-
tested Game.
The football game at the Yale Field
Saturday afternoon between the Yale
university and Boston Athletic associa-
ton elevens resulted in stubborn CON
test, neither side being able to score
after twenty minute halves. The
largest crowd of the season was pres
ent about $500 spectators cheering the
efforts of the Yale team in it's unsuc-
cessful attempts to score.
On only a single occasion was either
goal approached. The first half was
played without a dangerous attempt by
either of the clubs at touchdown, and
thirteen minutes of the last half
had elapsed before Yale had fought her
way down the field for good vantage
ground to push the ball across the line.
Here Benjamin, the freshman substi-
tute, made a fine run from the center
of the field to the Boston teams ten
yard line, and the fight was viciously
waged for a touchdown. Several de-
cisions of Referee Treadway were ques-
toned by the visitors at this point, the
claim being made that he allowed Yale
an extra down, and also that Boston
had secured the ball on a tumble, but
he remained firm, and Captain Waters
declined Ito keep the crowd waiting ow-
ing to a dispute.
The last play of the game was very sem
sational. Yale had the ball only yard
from the visitors goal, and it was an
nounced that there were only fifteen
seconds remaining to play. Captain
Murray made a hole for him, and he
dug through right tackle. In the scrim-
mage he was lifted high in the air, and
the spectators held their breath in
anxious expectation to see where he
would land in the swaying mass. He
was thrust back three yards from goal,
and the ball went back to the Bostons
just as the referees whistle sounded for
the game to close.
Yale was forced to present largely a
substitute team, owing to injuries to
Captain Thorne, Bass Hinkey and San
ford. Hazen, who took Bass place,
played a great game, and Anthony and
Smith did the best work for the visitors.

RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS.
Charges for Transportation of Fru
Discussed.

Charges for Transportation of Fruit
Discussed.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 18.-There was
full attendance at the meeting of the
Board of Railroad Commissioners this
afternoon. The Assembly resolution,
calling upon the Commissioners for de-
tailed statement of the charges for trans
porting fruit overland, with particular
reference TO the charges for refrigerator
cars, was taken up. j. G. Stubbs, ". II.
Mills and G. +. Smurr, representing the
Southern Pacific Company, and several
agents OF refrigerator devices were
present.
Upon presentation, w. II. Mills said
he came TO make answer to the resolu-
ton, be did not represent the Southern
Paclhc Company, but came as a student
OF the industrial resources OF this State
and the influence Of transportation upon
fruit shipments. MIR. Mills then filed
statement concerning the cost OF moving
frult ana also concerning the apparatus
used. 1t sets forth that Mr.. Perkins has
invented device for using sterilized air,
which preserves fruit and saves SIO0 per
car, as compared with refrigeration
Mr.. Perkins experimental with a car
load OF fruit, which was moved
from Oakland to New Orleans and
DdCh at LO6 expense OF the
Southern Pacific Company. The car was
absent fifteen days. The experiment was
satisfactory. If that device had been put
IN general use two years ago there would
have been saving of 100000 to Cali
tornia this season. MIR. Mills thought
there ought to be fund or legislative ap-
preparation which would enable the Rail-
road Commissioners to investigate de-
vices of this sort to save money fer the
producers.
The Secretary read the communication
presented by Mr.. Stubbs, and which con-
talned statement OF rates, and set forth
that the transportation companies have
nothing to do with refrigerating charges.
The railroads." said Mr.. Stubbs in his
communication, favor the ventilated
care. The railroad company does not
own refrigerator cars. The best car is yet
to be made which will make the shipping
OF decduous fruits cheaper" MIR. Stubbs
was OF the opinion that refrigerator car
charges have been too high. The charges
for transportation are about as low as
they can be made under the circum-
stances. he said.
The board also heard other gentlemen
concerning green fruit shipments ana re-
trigerator charges, and discussed the sub
Ject at considerable length.

TOOK EVERYTHING IN SIGHT.
\ Bank Cashier Robs His Employers
of SI5O,OOO.


of $50, 900.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1S.-A special to the
Tribune from Richmond, Va. says:
Itis now quite certain that c. NJ. Figgat.
the detaulting cashier of the Bank of
Lexington, stole about Sl5O,OOO from that
institution. He got away with $4,000
capital stock and nearly $4,000 belonging
to depositors.
The developments show that Figgaps
steaiings cover a period of twenty-five
years, and depositors are angry with the
directors for having failed to detect what
was going on. The bank is left with only
S6,OOU IN cash. Lexington is town of
5000 people, and is the county seat of
Rock Ridge, thrifty farming COM
munity.
Business is almost paralyzed on ac-
count OF the wreck OF this financial iusIi-
tuition. The Virginia Military Institute
had $4,000 on deposit and the County
Treasurer kept his accounts there. The
town was filled to-day with depositors,
VINO came from the country to discuss the
situation, and feeling was bitter toward
those responsible for the careless man
ner in which the affairs Of the bank were
conducted.
Figgat had many bondsmen. but tho
situation Is so complicated it will be hard
10 recover anything from them, and IL is
likely that nearly everything will be lost.
There IS now no doubt that Eiggat had
accOmplices in the robbery.
