BIG BILLIARDS
Billiard Playing at the Chicago
Tournament

CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-After one of the
finest displays of scientific billiards ever
shown in Chicago Frank Ives tonight
defeated George Sutton by score of
400 to 160.
Ives won the bank but missed the play
off shot. Sutton made 10, and the young
Napoleon proceeded to show the possi-
bilities of the game.
Draws, masses, bank shots alternated
with skillful nursing until 1923 was
reached. Sutton piled up Sc in his
third, 10 in the fourth and 36 in the fifth
Ives put up As in his fourth and SO in
the sixth. At the end of the eleventh in
ming the score stood: Ives 295 Sutton
1856 Then Ives took a new lease of life.
and with runs of 29, 40 and 81, filled his
score. Score:
Ives, 400; average 2S Al.
Sutton, 100; average 12 Alb.
Cation defeated Spinks today in the
third game of the 1S-inch balk line
tournament by a score of 260 to 249. This
leaves the questions as regards the
player who is to be left outside the mon
ey still undecided. Had Spinks won
this afternoon he would have been sure
of fourth money with a fair chance for
third. His victory last night over
Shafer gave him confidence, but Cation,
after getting warmed up, began piling
up the caroms in a most disheartening
way and in the eighteenth inning took
the lead with a clever run of 30 Gator
ran the game out in the thirty eighth in
ming. The score:
Cation, 26O; average, 6 1-19; high run

CHICAGO, Jan. 19-The revised West
ern football rules, over which Professors
A. A. Stagg of Chicago University and
H. H. Everett of the University of Illi-
nois, have been poring for more than q
must now be submitted to the seven
universities which united in appointing
the committee and hard fight is likely
over their adoption. Alterations in the
rules are less sweeping than many an
ticipated. The vital change is that radi-
cally altering the present system of
scoring. The goal after touchdown is
stated to count for only one additional
point, the drop kick for four, the place
kick for three and the safety for two.
There is no requirement for seven men
in the line, but it is provided that if two
line men are drawn back of the line they
shall be outside of the line of scrimmage
Another safeguard against the rough
ness is that imposing distance penalty
for laying hands on opponents before the
ball is put into play. An important alter
alton also is that permitting to the
side scored on the choice of kick off.
Other changes are in the line of safe
ty, allowing fifteen yards instead Of ten
on the kick out after kick for goal on
the first down; permitting only two
minutes of time taken out for injuries,
and modifying the penalty impositions
when the ball is close to the goal hne.
The committee reserves several sug-
gestions on duties of officials, which will
be submitted if the committee is con-

GLADSTONE'S HEALTH
NOT so GOOD AS HIS FRIENDS
WOULD LIKE
The Grand Old Man Suffers From
Neuralgia-His Condition Is
Not Alarming

LONDON, Jan. 19.-The Pail Mall Ga
zette this afternoon makes the follow
ing announcement in big type:
with deep regret we learn on most ex-
cellent authority that Mr.. Gladstone IS
health causes the gravest anxiety to
those about him. His sojourn at Cannes
has not had the effect of fortifying his
strength as anticipated" The news
placards of the Pail Mall Gazette read:
Critical condition of Mr.. Gladstone
The announcement is causing much ex-
citement.
Henry Gladstone and George Armis
tead, an intimate friend of the family
both said there was nothing in the --latest
information they had received to justif!
the alarmist report about Mr.. Glad.
stones health.
Mr.. Gladstone has been suffering from
neuralgia but a letter received this
morning said he was better and that hi'
physicians were satisfied with his prog.
ress toward recovery.
The Westminster Gazette, although
minimizing the alarming reports con
cerning the health of Mr.. Gladstone, i!
constrained to admit the fact that Mr.
Gladstone has suffered great pain mos
of the time he has been at Cannes, be
ing unable to leave his sofa" Contin-
uing the Westminster Gazette remarks
so far as the vital organs are con
cerned, however, he is no worse. OF tht
other hand, continuous pain in a mar
of Mr.. Gladstone's age is undoubtedly {
symptom to cause anxiety"
An official statement issued tonigh
asserts that there is no cause for alarm
as to Mr. Gladstone's health, but that i
has not been benefited as much as hope(
for at Cannes. The facial neuralgis
pains have daily fluctuations owing t.
the cold winds and wet weather. but tn.
complaint is quite local. His physica
powers have not suffered, his strength
is good, his appetite excellent, he join,
his family at meals and takes regula'
drives, weather permitting. 1t is no
true that the family has been summoned
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Gladstone will gt
to Cannes Immediately in accordance
with an arrangement made weeks ago.
Lord Stuart Kennel, with whom Mr.
Gladstone is visiting, telegraphed to-
night at $40 that Mr.. Gladstone's health
was good.

NAVAL AFFAIRS
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-Secretary
Long, accompanied by Chief Construc-
tor Hichborn, Chief O'Neill of the bureau
of ordnance, and Judge Advocate Lem
ley, appeared before the senate commit
tee on naval affairs today. The secre-
tary said in response to questions that
the navy department had prepared full
plans and specifications calling for an
armor plant under the last naval appro-
priation bill and that estimates on the
cost of land tools and machinery neces-
sary to equip the plant had been adopt
ed. The bids were to be opened on-the
29th inst, and he thought several bids
would be made.
From the secretary's statement. corr
rohorated by statements from Commo-
dore Hichborn and Captain O'Neill, it
appears that the cost of government
plant properly equipped would be from
So, 500, 900 to $4,500,000. He said that this
included machinery for making armor
plate, guns and projectiles, and added
that If the government adopted the poll
icy of providing its own plant no armor
could be expected from such plant for
about three years.
