WESTERN FOOT BALL CHAMPIONSHIP

Chicago University Men Claim 1t and tho
Other Colleges Demur.
Chicago, Nov. 2S.-The scramble for
the western foot ball championship is
hotter than ever. With the develop
still further complicated. Coach Stagg
still holds to the claim that the Uni
versity of Chicago players are entitled
to the honor because Of their defeat
Of Michigan and because they have
played more games than any other
college. Wisconsin players think they
have beaten Chicago. and though they
were twice tied, have not been actually
beaten.
Northwestern makes no claim to the
championship. but holds that the North
western men have a clearer title to the
honor than have Stages men. They
declare that no team can justly claim
the pennant, and that Wisconsin,
Northwestern. Michigan and Chicago
stand on about equal ground. Michi-
gan makes no claim, but does not ac-
knowledge Chicago's right to the
championship. The opinion of the
Michigan players seems to be that If
the award can be made to any team
Wisconsin had the cleanest record.
The representatives of the seven lead
ing universities Of the west met at the
Chicago Beach hotel yesterday to con-
slider rules for the government Of
athletics. The principal business
transacted was the lengthening of the

Salt Lake. Utah. Nov. 2S.-The Tri-
bune publishes an interview with Sen
ator Dubois, of Idaho. The senator
says he had no idea that there would
be any attepmt to pass the Dingley bill
at this session of congress-; that 1t was
a piece of legislation that failed at the
last session. adm ought to fail at any
session. When asked about the policy
of the silver senators in the next con-
gress, he said: They will hold the bal
ance of power in the senate. and will
no doubt continue their aggressive
fight for silver. making all other issues
subordinate to that.
There can be no prosperity under
the Mckinley administration any more
than there was under Cleveland. Nc
Kinley wants a high tariff and a gold
standard. No materwhat kind of a
tariff we have there can be no prosper
ity except for the few under the gold
standard. One more trial Of the Re-
publicans will convince the people Of
this. in my judgment, and the silver
advocates will win the congress in '9S
and the presidency in 1900" Senator
Cannon, OF Utah. left for Washington
yesterday morning.

Il don't think he has said anything
to indicate that. Governor Bushnell is

eRAosrReET NOT RosILY HOPEFUL.
Boom in Business Has Not Developed to

New York, Nov. 2S. - Bradstreet's
says: Last. weeks disappointment at
the lack Of demand in general lines
continues, the Intervention of a holi-
day having made trade gutter and the
volume smaller. At some points Of dis
tribution there is no change in the
situation. Mild and unreasonable
weather prevents . more active dis
tribution of clothing and heavy goods,
and the volume moving is smaller
Where business has been more active
it is due to filling-in orders and to the
demand for holiday goods. Confidence
in a revival of a demand which has
not yet appeared was responsible for
the starting up of some mills and fac
tories, which are dissatisfied with their
prospects. The most encouraging re-
ports are of an improved tone of trade
and a favorable outlook for 1897.
The large number of changes in
prices of staples were downward this
