STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Oct.
u. = Stanford's recent game with the
Olympics was as satisfactory 10 Coach
Cross as to Captain Fickert The former
remarked before the game that if the San
Francisco eleven could play the game
they were said to be capable of his own
team would be beaten. He was gratifed,
therefore, that the Stanford players were
able to hold their opponents to a tie.
"Some of our boys played better bali
than had expected, and possibly, on The
whole. the team showed up a triae
stronger than | believed they would in the
match; but, altogether, the play was
pretty close on the plane / had mapped
out
Cross was well satisfied with the work of
the Stanford backs, but says that they do
not work we'll together yet in interfering
for the runner, nor do they all start on
the instant and hit the line in q bunch
when the signal is given for buck by one
of their number. This he will give special
attention TO, and he will also endeavor to
impress on the ends the responsibility
resting on them and the danger of being
drawn in by an opposing runner.
The training table will be started next
Monday, with from fifteen to eighteen
players on, and the number will gradually
be increased as individual men show their
ability and the time of the big game
draws near. Last year there were thirty
men at the able when the season ended.
Cross says that in Yale the ia Bile starts
with the opening of regular practice and
the old Varsity players are the first men
put down. Then the number is augmented
throughout the season, the same as is
done here.

Hon. F. A. Cutters Democratic
Arguments Are Logically
Answered.
PARTY PLATFORMS COMPARED
Senator's Stewart and Jones as Accom-
plices in the Crime of
1873"

SANTA ROSA, CAL, Oct. 12.-One of
the largest audiences faced by campaign
speaker in California this year greeted
Colonel T.. V. Eddy in the Atheneum
here tonight. AS it had been extensively
advertised that Colonel Eddy would an
swer some of the statements of F. A. Cut
ler on Saturday night, the audience was
largely composed of the people who had
listened to the speech of Mr.. Cutler and
the comparisons drawn by the speaker
were readily understood and loudly ap-
plauded.
The meeting was called to order by
Major o. Fountain, chairman of the Nc
KinleY and Hobart Club of Santa Rosa,
who introduced O. O. Weber as presiding
officer. Mr.. Weber made short and ap-
propriate opening speech, and amid loud
and prolong cheering introduced Colonel
Eddy. The speaker said that the
magnificent audience before him
was type of the audiences
that were gathering all over the
land, and that there must be some
profound reason for such gatherings; the
people must be apprehensive of some great
evil that might come upon the land. He
then pointed out the evil that might
come. He compared the two great party
platforms, showing the grave dangers that
could arise from an assault upon the
highest tribunal of the land; how the
avowed policy or the Democrats was to
reconstruct the Supreme Court, to pass a
law already declared unconstitutional by
the highest court in the land. He ex-
ploded the well-worn arguments of the
silverites that silver was the money of the
constitution by reading the passage in
| that instrument upon the subject.
Euloglzing Senator j ohm Sherman, Colo
mel Eddy read list of those who voted in
Congress to stop the coinage of silver dol
lars and proved that John Sherman voted
against the bill, while Senators Stewart
and Jones not only voted in favor of the
alleged ''crime of 1873" but in 1874 both
made speeches in favor of the gold STAN
dard.
Colonel Eddy spoke for nearly three
hours, the interest and enthusiasm grow
ing more intense as he proceeded, and
when he finally pointed to the draped pic
ture of William Mckinley it needed no
words from the speaker to start the 1000
people present in to wild demonstrate on
| of delight.
Several times during the early part OF
| the meeting the speaker was interrupted
! by remarks from the audience, but he
turned the laugh upon the interrupter
| each time with quick witted answers that
created unbounded amusement in the au-
| dience and completely discounted the
seeker after knowledge.
| At the close of this unusual meeting a
| patriotic woman in the audience arose to
| her feet waving the American flag in her
hand, and proposed three cheers for the
| Republican party, which were given with
\ a will.

The Englishman Declared the
Victor at the Close of the
Twentieth Round.
JOHNNY CLEARLY oUTCLAssED
But the Yankee Lad Struggled Bravely
and Won Some Applause From
the BritonS.

LONDON, Eng, Oct. 12.-The fight be-
tween Peddlar Palmer of England and
Johnny Murphy of Boston for the bantam
championship of the world took place to-
night at the National Sporting Club and
was won by Palmer. Both men were in
excellent condition and each weighed
1l4% pounds. Palmer was a good favorite
in the betting at odds of 8 to on him.
The Englishman forced the fighting
from the start. He was much the quicker
in his deliveries and hustled Murphy
around the ring in lively style. In the
first two rounds Murphy failed to land a
single good blow. Nevertheless he stood
up bravely and took punishment pIuckily
as Palmer ralned blows upon him with his
right and left. The plucky Yankee boy
was heartily applauded.
In the third round Murphy landed once
or twice, but did no apparent damage to
his opponent. Murphy started in the
fourth round with more advantage, but he
was terribly slow. Round after round
Palmer rushed Murphy about the ring,
but the American did not show that he
had been punished much until the end of
the twelfth round. Then he went to his
corner very tired.
Before time was called. however, he
pulled himself together and made splen-
did fight in the thirteenth round. Despite
his pluck he was too terribly battered TO re-
cover permanently, and Palmer had the
battle in hand to the finish.
At the end of the twentieth round
Palmer was declared the winner on points.
Murphy was not knocked out. Palmer's
seconds were Baxter and Fitzpatrick,
while Craig and Solly Smith acted in a
similar canacitY for MurnhY.

NEW YORK, n. Y, Oct. I'm the
Wolcott-' 'Scaldy Bill" fight at Maspeth
tonight WolcQtt was given the decision
in the seventeenth round.
Two good bouts were provided by the
management. The opening was tsn-
round go between Dick O'Brien of Boston
and Dick Moore of St. Paul. The main
attraction was a tweDty-round contest be-
tween Joe Wolcott, the eolored weller
weight champion, and William Quinn,
better known as "Scaldy Bill,' OF the
Pennsylvania coal regions, a colored
prodigy.
O'Brien seemed to have Moore at his
mercy in the first round, but Moore came
to in the second round and puncned his
man pretty hard. O'Brien came up pretty
fresh in the third round and they mixed
things up in great style. Moore was tired
of the fourth round. Both men INDUCED
In hard fighting in the fifth round, until
O 'BTien sent in right cross on the jaw,
which sent Moore to grass, and the referee
counted him out.
Wolcott was the first to appear in the
main bout He was seconded by Howie
Hodgins, Tommy Connolly and Tim Col
Charley White, Sam Bolen and Jim John
son. They were scheduled to go twenty
rounds at 148 pounds. "Scaldy" was
nearly head taller than his antagonist.
Wolcott punched his man and forced the
fighting from the start. 1t was terrific
go" Joe rushed at his man and landed
hard LETT swings on the body, bringing the
right round on the head. "ScaIdy" never
WINGED and sent in a couple OF wild swings
on Joe's BODY.
''Scaldy" was very nearly gone when
the bell rang in the second. II was a
grand fight. Wolcott was after his man
ike demon in the third and twice sent
him staggering against the ropes. Bill
landed two terrific swings that staggered
Wolcott and the crowd howled.
In the fourth fifth and sixth Wolcott
had the best of it, but "Scaldy" took his
punishment without flnchlng. while both
carried on an animated dialogue.
In tie seventh the terrific punishment
seemed to be having its effect on Bill, al
4, though he landed two rippers that nearly
sent Wolcott oft his feet. The eighth was
much the same.
Wolcott came up smiling in the ninth,
and they mixed things up with terrific
swings. 'Scaldy" was getting groggy
when the bell rang. Wolcott in the
tenth punched his man all over the
ring. 'Scaldy" was game to the
CUTE anu LOOK MS punishment IKE gut"
ton. 1t seemed as if no man could stand
the uppercnts and punches on the jaw and
body that Wolcott rained in the eleventh.
Again the bell only just saved "Scady"
In the twelfth. Three times in the thlr-
teenth Wolcott sent his man down, but
Bill managed to stay out the time.
Scaldy" was groggy in the fourteenth
and fifteenth and took punishment in an
extraordinary way. Wolcott knocked his
man down again in the sixteenth, but
could not put him out.
"Scaldy" was completely dazed in the
seventeenth, and after Joe had sent him
down three times the referee stopped the
brutal exhibition and gave Wolcott the
decision.

BIethen, formerly of Minnea polls, says
1t is charitable to this great preacher tc
say that most unfortunate speeulations
in real estate in what IS known as the
interurban district, or seven miles ot
territory lying between Minneapolis and
ST. Paul, during the boom have placed
Archbishop Ireland completely in the
hands of the money power. What he has
written has undoubtedly been caused by
the demands of those who have been COM
