Details of the Game.

AN ideal football day" remarked the
oie-tfners at the Georgetown campus
yesterday. as they put their hands in
the campus impaiiently awaiting the ar
rival Of the contesting teams.
The grandstand was crowded with pret-
ty girls, who. we'll supplied with long
streamers OF blue and gray ribbons. were
interested spectators and made up In en-
thusiasm what they lacked in knowledge
OF the technicalities of the game.
AT exactly five minutes after o'clock
the strong eleven of Swarthmore College
walked out on the gridiron to take their
ten minutes preliminary practice. They
were given hearty welcome by the
Georgetown students and a general show
of thorough good fellowship was a strong
feature throughout the entire contest.
Long and loud yells OF "Rah, Rah,
Georgetown and the waving of blue
and gray ribbons greeted the big George
town eleven when it appeared upon the
field to warm up before the game.
OF the two teams, Georgetown was con-
siderably the heavier, but was somewhat
handicapped by the number of inexpe-
rienced men on the team, while Swarth-
more, though the lighter. entirely out
classed Georgetown in snappy playing.
team work and interference The weak
est point on both teams was their llne.,
particularly Georgetowns, whose center
was repeatedly broken through and the
backs interfered with almost before they
received the ball.
Excellent kicking was done by both
teams, Capt. Farquhar, of Swarthmore,
standing little behind the thirty-five-
yard line. kicked goal from field, in the
second half of the game.
Bell. tackle on Swarthmore, an old Ma
ryland Agricultural College man, DID
some fine playing and his defensive work
is particularly worthy Of mention Far
quhar, VerIender, Temple Seaman, Hall.
and Jackson also did excellent work. both
defensive and aggressive, for Swarth-
more. -
The fine work of Kenna, Georgetown's
full back is especially .eommendable. His
successful line rushes fand fine tackiing
was a big feature of the game, fact
that his classmates were not slow in
grasping, and ats the end of the first
half this hero of sthe gridiron was pre-
sented with gold watch by the post
graduate class of Georgetown College, OF
which Kenna is anmember.
Capt. Casey did some good tackling,
while OBrien. at right half, did some

NEW P. B. B. WAITING ROOM.
Company Considering Plans for {
Novel Innovation.

The officials of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road are now considering plans for the
rebuilding of the waiting room which was
recently destroyed by fire. and no one of
them has been definitely settled upon as
yet. The plan. however, which meets
with the most favor is one which contem-
plates building the waiting room over the
present entrance to the ferries and con-
tinuing the present train sheds and tracks
down to the rivers edge.
This does not embrace any encroach-
ment upon Exchange place, as the
Evening Journal, with its usual facul-
ty for blundering, stated yesterday, but
ferryhouses up higher. The advantages
of this plan are manifest. In the first
place. it will give the citizens OF Jersey
City that for which they have contended
so long. a respectable entrance TO the
railroad station. By this plan the tracks
can be carried 1870 feet further toward the
water That will do away with much of
the grumbling on the part of passengers
who complain of the distance they are
compelled to walk between the trains and
the boats.
Superintendent Brooks favors the plan,
and the only obstacle in its way is the
cost. II would require $150,000 more to
carry out this plan than 1t would to re-
build the station just as it was, and al
though usually that sum is a mere baga-
vania Railroad Company, just now The
officials are hesitating over it,

In November last Justice of the Peace

on demand for $145 to the order of George
Spierling Spierling, for lawyers fee. en-
dorsed the note to Dr. c. C. Hendricks,

Union HILL The doctor sued Stuke for the
money. During the doctors illness in St.
Francis Hospital the return day came
and state of demand was not filed in time.
The failure was not waived and judgment
was given to the doctor by default. James
Furey, Stuke's counsel got a rule TO show
cause why Judgment should not be re-
opened. 1t was argued two weeks ago.
Judgment was set aside and the doctor
was nOn-Suited.
The Doctor instituted another suit. The
case came up yesterday in the Second Dis
trict Court before Judge Parker Justice
Stuke claims services rendered to Spier-
ling prior to the passage of the note to
Hendricks to the extent of $12, but had no
receipts in evidence.
Spierling, the co-defendant, is now in
Jail under indictment for attempting to
shoot Justice Stuke. He was acquitted
of the first similar charge against him.
Lawyer Furey claimed yesterday that
the Doctor should produce the co-defend-
ant This motion was denied, the Judge
directing Mr.. Furey to get writ of ha-
beas corpus ad testifacandum to produce
Spierling. Furey argued lack of jurisdic-
tion but was overruled He did not pro-
duce the co-defendant. Dr. Hendricks
moved that all of Stuke's evidence as to

had been filed. Judge Parker reserved de-
cision on this motion A., MI. t'urey contend =

PRINCETON, April 2, 1898. The possibil-
Ky of war aroused quite a frenzied ex-
hibition of patriotism among the students
of the University last night. The move
ment was wholly spontaneous and was
started by a few prominent seniors about
II O'Clock
"All out for war; was the cry raised,
and in very short time large part
of the student body was out yelling
around the historic cannon, which did SER
vice in the revolutionary battle of
Princeton, and which is now the hub of
Princeton life.
A parade was next organized, the line
of march being down historic Nassau
street TO the home of ex-President Cleve-
land. Repeated calls failed to bring the
ex-President out for the desired speech,
so the march continued the next stop
being at Prospect, the home of President
Patton of the University
President Patton came out and made
a very patriotic and yet conservative
speech. While hoping that war might
even yet be averted, he was nevertheless
of the opinion that we should be careful
TO see that our national honor was not
assailed.
As close to the demonstration of the
evening, a huge bonfire was kindled on
top of the old cannon and for two hours
the students yelled and sang patriotic

Willard H. Brownson is negotiating, in
behalf of the United States, for the pur-
chase of the Basair, which is being built

consent of Morocco must be obtained be-
fore the sale can be consummated
Commander Brownson is also negotiating

yards for the purchase of the armored
cruiser Garibaldi, and the armored cruiser
Varese from Argentina, and is understood
to be consummating the purchase Of the
Varese. The prices of the Garibaldi and

miles, a pipe line will be used The
water. it is contended, can be delivered

Such q head, it was claimed, would not

would make fire engines useless and ex-
