moral pressure to obtain the necessary
reforms in conjunction with the other

against force being used.
The powers will, in the opinion of a

NOT PLEASED WITH LEE.
But tho Consul General Viii Return All
fhe Same.

But the CONSUL General WiH Return All
Me Same.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Nov. 27.-A Herald
special from Washington says: a report
has been current here for several days to
the effect that Consul General Lee would
not return to Havana. Rumors have also
been current to the effect that the Spanish
Government was displeased with General
Lees Yutspoken sympathy for the insur-
gents and that in consequence of the
supposed report in favor of interven-
ton he would be considered persona non
grata if he should return to Havana to
resume his duties.
General Lee was asked about these
rumors yesterday. He emphatically stated
that it was his present purpose to return
to Havana in the near future. He init
mated that he had changed his plans
about taking Mrs. Lee TO Havana with
him, and in explanation stated that affairs
there were too unsettled to make any
plans for her stay in that city. He would
not discuss the question of Spain's feeling
toward him.
Mr.. Lee does not believe there will be
any immediate change in t. policy of the
administration, and it is believed he is
rather disappointed. He is convinced
that intervention by the United States
will come sooner or later and, although he
will not admit it, there are reasons for
believing that he was anxious to have the
President announce an Intervention pol
icy in his forthcoming message. There
are as: urances from several official sources
that the President will do nothing of the
kind. If developments in Cuba or Spain
necessitate cnange OF policy it will be
announced in a special message.
Cabinet officer said yesterday that the
President fully realized the inability of
Spain to end the war during the present
winter and that the United States could
hardly be expected to keep its hands off
much longer. At the same time the
President was reluctant to adopt a more
aggressive policy than he had followed in
the past for the reason that he does not
want to do anything that will disturb the
business interests of the country.

LONDON, Eng, Nov 27.-The trial oil
Lady Scott and the male defendants,
Cockerton, Aylott and Kast, for having
criminally libeled Earl Russell, was con-
tinued to-day, with Earl Russell still in
the witness-box Sir Frank Lockwood,
for the prosecution, resumed his re-exam-
ination of the plaintiff, who referred to
his relations with a certain girl prior to
his marriage to Lady Scott's daughter.
Witness said that he had told Lady Scott
all about this affair before the wedding
took place, and had also told her about
the charge that was made against him
which had resulted in his expulsion from
Oxford.
Counsel read letter written by Lady
Scott to Earl Russell in which she told
him she loved him dearly and urged him
10 bring all his troubles to her. Earl
Russell said that this letter was sent to
him by Lady Scott after he had communi-
Gated to her the incidents of his past life.

fed that he had objected to Earl RUSSELL
marriage to Lady Scott's daughter and
warned him against association with Lady
Scott on account of her notoriously bad
character. Witness said he was on board
Earl Russell's Yacht at the same time
that Ion Thyme was guest on board
and it was not true, as alleged. that he
had ever seen anything wrong there. Il
Aylott stated he had seen him threaten
to strike Earl Russell, with coal hammer,

henry Doei Celebrates HIS Ninety Third
RirthdaN ut Plymouth.

LONDON, ENG, Nov. 27.-The oldest
living actor in the world celebrated mis-
ninety-third birthday at Plymouth this
week, and the event was made the occa-
sion of a food of congratulations from
mem bers of the profession and of a recep-
tion by some of his fellow townsmen. His
name is Henry Doel, and for sixty-fve
years prior to his retirement a few years
ago he had at one time or another been
identified with most of the leading Eng
iish companies.
Even now he occasionally takes "juv-
emile parts" in the plays produced at the
local theaters and is an inveterate ''first-
nignter."
The preservation of his memory is re-
markable, and without reference to manu-
script he can rehearse and speak paris that
were the rage more than half century
ago. He also clearly recalls how when a
child he was taken in q rowboat to Plv-
mouth Sound and saw the first Napoleon
walking the quarterback of the Belle
rophon, and which subsequently conveyed
him 10 his home of exile on ST, Helena

CHICAGO. ILL, Nov. 27.-Representa-
tives of the athletic boards OF control of
the universities of Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Chicago, Northwestern Illinois, Lake
Forest and Purdue (Ind.) bled this
morning in special conference at the Chi
cago Beach Hotel for the purpose of con-
sidering a number of questions of vital
importance to college athletics.
Among these is the matter of the six
month rule and the Jour- year rule.
Michigan objected to the six-month rule
when it was suggested at the meeting In
this city last year, and has steadily re-
fused to adopt 1t. Minnesota is the only
I Western college to absolutely put it in
force, and the attitude OF Michigan has
been made the basis OF charges of prof s.
sionalism. The Ann Arborites are about
tired of defending themselves, and have
instructed Professor Knowlton, their rep
reseniative at to-day's conference. to an
nounce their adhe-ion hereafter to the
six-month rule. The conference will be
asked to make a strong stand for purity
in Western intercollegiate athletics. 1t is
proba BILE tnat rules will be adopted which
will place the West upon the same footing
as the East concerning requirements and
regulation OF athletes.

through a window several feet further
south without having changed their posi-

were watching it.
Mr.. ST. John says that vari-colored
lights were shot forth in all directions.
Tney were emitted from each end and
both sides. Sometimes the light at one
end or one side would be cut Off. Some OF
the lights were white, others red, blue and
green. Tnese four shades were distinctly
visible. When ali the lights were shining
the aerial monster seemed incased in
brilliant glow. having the appearance OF
powerful electric searchlight. The size
then seemed to be that OF an arc light. 1t

rays shooting out from the center IN
every direction like spokes in the hub OF
wheel. Sometimes it had a wavering
motion and swayed back and forth in It's
course through the heavens like vessel
at sea in a storm, but the und aging
motion was its chief course, being varied
by frequent dartings.
The moonlight was not strong enough
to permit distinct view of Mount Ia
coma, but the airship was seen to ap-
proach the neigh borhood of the N ountain

dart hither and thither as if an expiora-
ton was in progress.
The sunnosed airshin was still In sipht
when Mr.. and Mrs. St. John became tired
OF watching it and went to sleep. They
spoke of the strange occurrence to many
friends next day, but what they had wit
messed was not made public until to-day.
They have eagerly read accounts of the
California a1rship, and declare that what
they saw must have been the same or an
exactly similar contrivance.
Hundreds OF people are on the lookout
here for another appearance of the airshIp.

Non Union Loborers Who Wanted to Re-

LONDON, ENG, Nov. 27.-A large party
OF laborers who had pledged themselves 10
go TO Hambur to fill the places OF strikers
Assem- bled at the Asbert docks under the
auspices of the Free Labor Association for
the purpose of EN- barking for Ham burg.
The union laborers about the docks were
informed OF tine intention of the Don-union
men and became indignant that they
should lend their a:d to defeat the Ham
burg strikers The union men armed
themselves with bllets of wood and made
an attack. The non-union men defended
themselves vigorously and serious hight
resulted. In the end the non-union men,
who were greatly ontnum bered, were
worsted and compelled to retreat. They
left the docks and took train for TILL
bury, from which place they will sail for
Ham burg tomorrow.
The Hamburg correspondent OF the
Times telegraphed that well-informed
sympathizers consider that the movement
is hopeless, especially in view of the cold
weather that has set in.
NEW YORK, N. Y, Nov. '2S.-Delegate
McHugh, of the international Riverside
and Dock Laborers' Union OF London,
said to-day that he had nothing to do
with the dock strike in Hamburg, and the
longshoremen here would not be called
upon to aid the strikers in any manner.
He himself was opposed to strikes and
never encouraged them.
He was going around to all the docks,
speaking to the men at work there, inter-
ested only in perfecting the organization
of trades unions. Mr.. McHugh spoke to-
day at two longshoremen's meetings, Que
in Irving Hall in Brooklyn and another at
the loot of West Twenty fourth street,
New York. The last was an open-air
meeting and when he began speaking
there were OILY few present, bat soon he
had large crowd of longshoremen. He
advised the mon to spend less money in

CHICAGO, ILL. Nov. 27.- The Chicago
University eleven has decided not to ac-

Manager Haller of the Evanston team had
a conference with Professor Stagg to-day
endeavoring 10 arrange game for next

fessor Stagg positively refused to make
any such arrangement, and intimated that
the recent defeat of the Northwestern by
the Maroons put them out of the cham
pionship race, Notwithstanding the fact
that they played a draw game with Wis
consin Yesterday.
The Chicaso eleven stopped training
yesterday, and it is improbabl that they
will play again this season. Profe sor
Stagg claims that Chicago, by defeating
Michigan University yesterday, is entitled

Over AouiH,

STAMFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL, Nov
27.-ln spite OF the fact that special train
was run last evening to take the students
back to Palo Alto after the Thanksgiving
day football game, but few took advantage
of the opportunity. A larger crowd came
down on the morning train to-day. All
had husky voices as a result of continual
cheering; all were smiling and jubilant.
The football game was again fought over
in the cars. and will probably be discussed
for many days to come Attention was
called to statement made at the recent
football rally, ih which Clemens '94, STAN
ford's star halfback, said:
with such material, you ought to de-
ieat Berkeley worse than you have ever
done before. You ought to win by score
OF at least 20 too"
This was the score Stanford m ade.
The news of the victory was received
last evening with great 1thu iasm by the
citizens of Palo Alto. The score is dis
PLAYED in several of the show-windows
and has been posted on all the bulletin.
boards at the university. On all sides
The CALL was praised for its complete,
accurate and unbiased report of the game.
The supply of CALLS at both newsstands
was soon exhausted this morning A
fresh supply was obtained from neigh
boring towns, but it, too, was soon con-
sumed.
Most of Stanford's players feel the effect
of their hard game of yesterday. Genial
III If" Williams is unable to welcome his
frien with his accustomed broad smile.
This is due to the fact that number of
large patches OF skin we're rubbed from
his face during the game, and IL is painful
TO even look pleasant. In addition to this
his muscles are quite sore. Owing to the
style of play adopted by Stanford her
backs feel the effects of the game the
most. The elbows of the men were bruised
in falling after "bucking the line" Fisher
has both of his elbows in bad conditio n.
Both Searight and Cotton are suffer- ng
from the same kind of injuries. One OF
the arms of the latter is nearly twice its
normal size.

turned to tue university by the end OF the
