foot ball team and the Vanderbilt eleven
played a match game The teams were
evenly matched, and the game was played
to within five minutes of the closing time
without either side gaining any advant-

artistic and vicious slugging. Finally, a
fragrant slug by the Nashvilles caused
the Vanderbilts to openly retaliate, and in
an instant both teams were fighting for
all they were worth. The rooters for
both teams were out in full force. There

GOLDBUGs OF ILLINOIS,
The National Democrats to Keep Up
Their Organization.


Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 14.-The continuance
of the national democratic partys organi-
cation for all political purposes was unan-
imously decided upon to-day at an en-
thusiastic conference attended by most of
the members of the state central commit
tee, those who were candidates on the
state tickets, and half a hundred other
prominent gold democrats, representing
score of cities throughout this state.
The decision took the form of an address
to the democrats of Illinois, declaring that
the national democratic party is the only
democratic party, and that its permanence
was, therefore, fixed and obligatory The
address states that the partys transient
antagonist is the free silver party, but it's
permanent antagonist is the republican
party, and concludes by claiming that a
conservative estimate of the Illinois cleo
ton returns shows that over 10000 demo-
Gratis voted against free silver.
Permanent state headquarters will be
kept here, and the party intends to take
an active part in the municipal election
of Chicago, in the hope of crushing the
democratic machine dominated by Gov.
Altgeld, especially if the governor is nom
mated for mayor. Adams A. Goodrich
of Chicago was elected chairman of the
state committee to succeed the late
Charles A. Ewing of Decatur.

Havana, Nov 14-As the days pass and
bring no news from the Spanish forces in
the province of Pinar del Rio, the anxiety
here grows deeper and many rumors are
circulated.
The situation of Gen. Weyler is un-
known, and the non-receipt of intelligence
concerning his movements leads many
persons here to believe that he is waiting
for decisive engagement with the rebels
before he viii allow any information to
leak out.
1t is reported that the rebel chief Due
cassi was killed in the engagement with
Gen. Weyler's forces in the Rubi hills.
Col. Lara reports having had an en-
counter with party of rebels near Gala

gard the Outlook as Ominous.
London, Nov H-Endeavoring to OBJ
tain from official sources further infor-
nation regarding the impending famine
in Ireland, a reporter of the Southern
Associated Press learned that although
the local Irish authorities reported on the
failure of the crops in many districts, the
official view was that no serious or wide
spread famine was anticipated. A lead
ing board of trade official who is in a po-
sitlon to know, said that there would be
distress of a severe kind in many dis
tricts, but no actual famine. There can
now be no really extensive famine in Ire
land, the arrangements for relief having
been so perfected that the Central au-
thorities in Dublin can assist the local
authorities at almost a moments notice.
Into the question of the suspension of
rent payments by the farmers, the officials
interviewed declined to go. From other
sources it can be affirmed that the Dub
lin castle authorities have been warned
of the wholesale refusal of the smaller
farmers to pay their rents, on the sim
pie ground of inability. Their crops have
been destroyed and they have nothing to
pay rent with There has been up till
now a remarkable absence of agrarian
crime in Ireland. When the pinch of
winter comes, it is feared that the old
