CLASH AT HAVANA.
Guns Sold and Removed Despite Pro-
tests of Americans.

HAVANA. Oct. 22.-Yesterday afternoon
the evacuation commission was informed
that j. B. Hammel was moving the old
guns bought from the Spanish government
at a sale held by the authorities, despite
the commissioners protest. Capt. Brooks
was at once detailed to go to the artillery
depot and make an investigation. When he
arrived the commandment of the depot at
tempted to prevent Captain Brooks entering,
claiming that It was against mis- orders, but
the latter insisted. advising the comman-
dant to make formal protest of trespass
directly to the commissioners. Captain
Brooks reported that the entire purchase
had been removed with the wagons and
carriages. Each article was checked as it
went out The commission addressed a note
to Mr.. HammeE warning him that the
Americans would claim full right in the
property and would hold him responsible for
every piece removed. Yesterday afternoon
the commission made further protest
against the dismounting and shipment from
the island of the heavy Krupp guns of the
Reina battery.
The American commission here is placed
In an unfortunate position. The Spanish
government. ii is alleged, daily commits
some act in violation of the terms of the
protocol or the legality of which is doubtful:
such as the removal of guns or the sale Of
government property, against which all the
American commission is able to dc is pro-
test. which it does regularly, only to see
its protests unheeded and ignored. AS one
of the members of the commission said
we cannot go out into the street and stop
the guns being earted on the road ourselves.
We should have troops or marines here to
enforce our protests. Ali do is to
protest to which action no attention is paid.
II IS the most extraordinary situation ever
known. In the teeth of the protests of our
commission. the Spaniards first dismounted
the guns of the Alfonso XII in the Santa
Clara battery and quietly returned them to
the cruiser, and they now announce that
she viii sail for Spain on the 30th. These
guns technically belong to the fortress,
where they We're placed and mounted and
could not accurately be considered as NOV
able property. Next the authorities held a
sale of about 5000 COO worth of brass cannon,
which was disposed of, despite protests, at
less than half their value. Matters have
now eliminated in total disregard for our
commissioners in the dismounting of the
heavy Krupp guns in the Reina battery, for
shipment to Span.''
j. Il. Hamel. the successful bidder at the
sale at the artillery depot this afternoon,
visited General Wade and declared his will
ingness to renounce his purchase. The Span
ish government he asserts, has $4,000 which
he deposited before the sale as a guarantee
OF good faith and which the Spanish Off
Gals now refuse to return.

SPEECH BY RosEBERY.
Reference Made to "Our kinsmen in
the United States"

PERTH, Scotland, Oct. 22.-I4ord Rose
berry the Liberal leader and former premier,
in receiving the freedom of the city Of
Perth to-day. referred in the most cordial
terms to the good understanding between
Great Britain and our kinsmen in the
United States" Continuing, the speaker
said he believed the whole history of the
ill-feeling which existed was one vast misun-
derstanding. Since 1779 by the madness of
one government and the want of wisdom of
another Great Britain had waged two wars
against the United States, in neither of
which were we conspicuousIy successful.
But, throughout my life, l have never been
cognizant of an unfrendly feeling in this
country towards the United States. On the
other hand. the Americans, in whose terri
tory the wars were fought. and with whom
the recollection was most painful, have al
ways had a sense Of abiding soreness. But
/ am glad to say that, after more than a
century of misunderstanding, the United
States has discovered that we are not enc
mics, but friends (Cheers) / could not
but believe that when they realized the
position they would see that ii was a great
future before the two great nations going
hand in hand, and that it was their duty
function and destiny to perform a great
service, not actually in behalf of other ma
tions, but in behalf of humanity and civil
liza ton" (Cheers.)
Lord Rosebery then referred at length to
the Fashoda question, his remarks having
the same tenor as his previous utterances
on the same subject. lie said: IF | were a
British minister now no man should rob me
of one shred or jot of the honor to which the
great work of civilization, eliminating at
Omdurman, entitled Great Britain and
Egypt If the government does not feel
strong enough to bear the weight of it's
laurels, / am willing to take any share
it may hand over to me-"

PRINCETON, N. j., Oct. PIN an ex-
citing game of football this afternoon
Princeton Won from Cornell. to 0. The
teams were almost evenly matched and the
battle waged from one side of the field to
the other during the early part of the game,
neither team seeming to have the advan-
tage. At first Cornell started off with d
rush, but after the Tigers had learned the
Cornell plays the ball changed hands and
was carried steadily down the field for the
only touchdowfS of the game. Reiter took
the pigskin over the line and Mills kicked
during the game. In the first half Cornell

and in danger of losing the ball on downs

YALE, is; INDIANS, 5.
Carlisle School Reds Played Well in
the First Half.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Oct 22.-Yale this
afternoon defeated the Carlisle Indians at
football. Is to >. The game was q sensa-
tional one and at the end of the first half
the score stood to 5. 1t seemed alarmingly
dangerous for Yale. The five points to Car
isles credit are due to Quarterback Hud-
sons marvellous skill in dropping a ball
from the orty-five-yard line. The trick
caused CONSERVATION in the Yale line, and
after that the Indians played Yale almost
to standstill for a few minutes The
Carlisle rush line seemed too much for Yale,
but the reason of this became apparent
when. in the second half, after Yale had
changed signals, the Indians found the line
nearly always impregnabe. For Yale Coy,
Brown and Cutten played an excellent
game, and, under McBride's powerful long
kicks. may be said to have done the lion
share of the work. Coach Butterworth,
who was the side lines expressed the
greatest establishment when Mcbride re-
peatedly lined out sixty and seventy-fve-
yards puntS.
The noticeable differences in the playing
of the two elevenS may be summed up in
that Yale had not the dash and quicknesS
of the Indians. Yale's line acted worn oul
at times on the aggressive, and for short
period were no match on the defensive,
either. The Indians were better and surer
tackles. also. and their powerful plunges
behind mass play against Captain Chamber
lain and Marshall were wonderful in
strength and quickness of execution.

TWO DOCTORS POISONED
BOTH TOOK ATROPINE, AND ONE is
IN A CRITICAL CONDITION.
Experience of Morgan and shofe, In
ternes mt the Medical Col
Iege of Indiana.

Drs. r. G.. Morgan and Norman Shobe,
two internes at the Medical College of Indi-
ana, barely escaped death yesterday after
noon in the college laboratory, and the
former is in critical condition as the re-
suit of an accident. The two physicians
were making an experiment with atropine,
which is the active principal of belladonna,
and while doing so DIR. Morgan complained
of having a cold. Atropine being recon-
mended as remedy for colds when taken
with proper precautions. DR.. Shobe asked
his companion why he did not take d dose,
at the same time helping himself to a small
amount. DIR. Morgan had been using a so
luton of atropine on his eyes, and in order
to mix the solution without going to the
trouble of weighing out the drug he had
made up number of tablets of half grain
EACH which, when used, were dissolved in
water. Hardly had he been invited by Dr.
Shobe to try dose internally when he swal-
lowed one of the tablets. Almost at once
the effects of the dose were apparent, and
when some of the faculty responded to the
call for help both men were writhing on
the floor in extreme agony. DR.. William
M. Wright, professor of anatomy, was the
first to arrive on the scene and promptly
administered morphine as the antidote for
the atropine. In a short time Dr. Shobe re-
vived under the effects of the morphine
but still suffered extremely by reason
of the drying of the secretions all
over his body, which is one of the principal
Accomplishments to atropine poisoning.
The mouths of both men were parched as
dry as chips, and the contracted muscles
and nerves throughout their bodies pro-
duced excruciating sufferiRgs Both were
delirious until late hour last night, al
though Dr. Shobe seemed to rally quicker
than DR.. Morgan. Owing to the peculiar
effects of the drug the organs of the body
would not perform any of the natural func-
tons, and the work of stimulating the sys-
tenn was accompanied by intense pain to the
patients. One of the highest medical au-
thorities states that one grain of atropine
will produce DEATH beyond doubt even to
the strongest constitution. The drug, how
ever, aHects nearly all subjects differently,
some being more easily affected than 9TH
ers- Both of the men were particularly
susceptible to its effects, and DIR. Morgan S
condition was no doubt rendered more crit
ne took the dose, partially under the infiu-
with the solution. Both of the physicians
reside in the college, and last night at a
late hour, We're reported somewhat bet
ter DR.. Shobe being almost recovered, while
DIR. Morgan was still looked on as in a
dangerous condition.

lieved him i'm the second half. The De PAW
players worked their gains around the ends
and on tackle. In the first half De PAW
scored just before the close, Blakely going
over and Fisher kicking goal. This was
done after De Paw had placed the ball
three times within a yard of the goal los
ing one down on tumble. In the second
half Weik, who playing guard. was
called back from the line when the ball
was within a few feet of the goal, and was
sent over for two touchdowns in succession,
Fisher missing both goals. Blakely and
Fisher made the best runs of the game. and
Captain Haines showed good generalship.

dams again to-day, winning by score of

it possible for Anderson to score a touch

The Indians in this half were at no time
dangerous, but with the ball in their possess
sion at the beginning of the second half
gave Purdue something of scare by daring
dashes through the line They lost the ball
on downs after considerable gain, and then
through Robertson's punt Purdue stock
went up. 1t was in this half that Robertson,
after long high punt, recovered the ball
and made touchdown. but was disallowed
by the refree. Subsequently Anderson made
another touchdown, but for this great credit
was due Sears, who dragged him a dozen
feet to the line. Goal was kicked by Robert

Dihbee's work was the most wonderful that

on kicking. Chicago was practically unable
to make any gains at all through the Har-
ward line until the middle of the second,

the hammering of Wellington and GRADER,
aided by the line work of Huddleson and
Byrnes who were put fresh into the line

weak points were in open field. The Chicago
team developed very poor interference
and its runners fell an easy prey to Har-
