Laramie has failed to score this sea-
son, but has gained very much in that
the team played the best team in Colo
RADIO as well as the poorest, and has
advertised the university students as
royal entertainers and coed football
players. 1t must be remembered that
this year the Boulder team was poor
nearly all the season. the famous d. A.
C. the same and Golden, which was
very weak two years ago, rallied after
two seasons defeats to first place this
year. Laramie has done well before
begin is now.
Several defects were plainly evident
yesterday. Both lines could be easily
broken through. Laramie's ends
played in too far and most of the gains
were made by Denver's fleet backs 60
ing around. This should never happen.
An end must turn a runner in toward
the center and let tackle or half do the
tackling. In the Golden game Lara
mics ends played better. Laramie's
men did not get into every play as they
should, losing substantial gains in this
way . All these defects must be cor

WEEK OF GRACE FOR
 COLONEL FlNIGAN.
Illness of Woman Saves Him From Possible Incarceration for
 Contempt

SAN RAFAEL, Feb. 14-Codonel Peter A. Finigan is the most abused man in the world, according to his own story. To- day, through a womanS illness, he was saved the ignominy of again occupying a cell in the Marin County Jail. Colonel Finigan was on hand early in Superior Judge Angellotti's court. on an order to show cause why he should not be ad- judged guilty of contempt of court for failure to pay alimony to Mrs. Emily B. Finigan. The one-t1me millionaire in an affidavit alleged that Mrs. Finigan had annoyed and haraSSed him and exposed him to contempt and ridicule. He said he had no income or means of support and was dependent for his maintenance on the credit he had been able to obtain. Mrs. FiniganS persecution, he explained, pre- vented him from engaging in business.
 Colonel Finigan was asked by Mrs. Fini- gan's counsel what property he had be- fore the divorce suit was commenced - Judge Bigelow said it was intended to show that Colonel Finigan had proper ty standing in the names of others amounting to over SlOO,O0O: Objections were raised and 1t was decided to post pone argument of the point until the af- ternoon.
 A subpoena was issued for Mrs R. H. Warfeld, wife of General Warfield of tho Hotel Rafael, where the F'infgans lived.
 When court convened Attorney Crowley said that Deputy Constable Crit Sheppard had served the subpoena on Mrs Warfield and she had informed him that she woul0 not come. Crowley asked that an attach- ment be issued to bring her into court. Judge Angellotu said that a certificate Hewitt to the effect that Mrs Warfield was sick and could not appear in court, The court put the case over until next Monday.

not regard their seizure by some other power as an offense against this coun- try. We could not play the dog In the manager refusing to accept the territory ourselves or to allow others to take 1t. He attempted to contro- vert the statement of Senator Petit grew, that warships could not carry sufficient fuel from Hawaii to make them effective either for or against the United States in case of nostili- ties, and quoted statistics to show the contrary view He said that if it were even true that a vessel could not carry sufficient coal itself, coaling vessels could be taken along for that purpose. He thought the islands of essential inn portance to the United States, both for the purpose of offense and defense.
 During the session, Senator White of California attempted to ascertain from Senator Davis, in charge of the treaty, whether there would be any early at- tempt to secure 8 vote upon it. The California Senator stated his opinion that there ought to be at least three weeks notice of a time for a vote for the arrangement of pairs. He stated that he would be compelled to be ab- sent from the Senate for the next three weeks, and expressed a desire to know something of the plans as to bringing the discussion to an end.
 In reply, Senator Davis simply stat ed that he could not at present say when the debate would cease, or when the Senate would be prepared to take A vote

NAVIGATION
 BILL PREPA AIRED Framed to Meet New Conditions Owing to
 the Yukon Rush.
l Rules Governing the Coasting
 | Trade Are Made Very Explicit.
An Increase of the Penalty for c Violation of Regulations by
 Foreign Vessels.
Special Dispatch to The Caii.
Call Office, Riggs House,

Call Office, Riggs Housea
 Washington, Feb. IA.
 The House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries held a meetingI to-day, going over the proposed changeE in the navigation laws to remova troublesome problems arising in Alas-l kan commerce. AS a result the com- mittee later favorably reported to the House the Payne bill providing for several amendments to the navigatton laws.
 The bill is framed to meet new con- ditions created by the gold discoveries in the Yukon River and it's objects and effects are explained in a comprehen- sive report made to the committee by Secretary Gage. It strengthens and makes explicit the laws declaring our general policy that the coasting trade | Qncluding the trade between the rest of the United States and Alaska) shall be reserved exclusively to American vessels, and covers more explicitly this situation. Seagoing vessels can proceed to St. Michael, near the mouth of the Yukon. The Yukon Is very shallow. in some places only four feet deep. Transfer of cargoes and passengers from deep-draught seagoing vessels to river vessels drawing little water IS llleIclOIc HSCcSSdTy at Ol- MlCUS4Sl- | Substantially the same is true of Stickeen River and Wrangel near it's mouth.
 | The essential amendment, as pointed out by Secretary Gage, is on the ques- tion as to whether American goods consigned to Alaskan ports from Seat | tie can be carried in American vessels to Victoria, a distance of only 72 miles. and at Victoria be put on British ves- sels to be carried to Dyea, about 300 miles, or to St. Michael, about 2000 miles. The Treasury Department has ruled that this is a violation of the laws reserving the coasting trade to Ameri- can vessels. The policy of the United States, Secretary Gage says, is to con- fine carrying by water flor the whole voyage" between American points to American vessels and section 1 of the bill is believed to explicitly affirm this policy and remove all doubt. The con- mfttee has increased from $100 to $200 the penalty for each instance of for eign vessel transporting a passenger between ports or places in the United States, either directly or via a foreign port.

MORE WAGES FOR SAILORS.
Substantial Raise Made by the Ship
 Owners Association.

Wages will be increased by the Ship owners Association. The increase is made because the ship-owners can af- ford it and not because of any fear of trouble or apprehension of a scarcity of men for a long time to come. The owners are getting better charters for their vessels and freighting has raised correspondingly. Rates have been in- creased $5 all round for able seamen, for all ports, excepting for vessels sail ing for Australia, Asia, Europe and South America, on which the rate re- mains the same. s20. The reason for this exception is that the foreign ship pers control such rates. The schedule, as increased, to go into effect to-day is as follows
 Sailing vessels, lumber, bar harbors, Pa cific States, Alaska or British Columbia. $35; sailing vessels, coal, bar harbors, Pa cific States or British Columbia, $30; sail ing vessels, lumber, outside roadsteads, Pacific States or British Columbia, $40; sailing vessels, Hawaiian Islands and Mexico, s9o; sailing vessels. Central America, $25; sailing vessels. Asia, Aus tralia, Europe. South America (no change), s20; steam craft, bar harbors, $40; steam craft, outside roadsteads, $45 steam craft, foreign voyages, $25 and up- ward
