Over $I4.OOO-S5 900 I'm Stght

| OSVA @AH,VUo-Ho sVUV ah StEnt.
Washington, Dec. 25-The total SUBJ
scription to the Lawton fund up to
noon Of Christmas day was 4,329.55.
The committee has determined to con-
ond of January. 1t is not at all i'm
probable that the fund will eventually
reach the proportion of $4,000. The
original intention was to raise only a
fund sufficient to pay off the mortgage
of about $4,000 on the Lawton home
stead at Redlands, Cal, but the gener-
GUS response to the appeal encouraged
the committee to believe that enough
money will be subscribed beyond that
sum to place the Lawton family beyond
the possibility Of want. Secretary Root
and Adjutant General Corbin sent per-
sonal appeals to about one hundred and
fifty bankers in New York, with the re-
suit of a large increase to the fund.
Among those who have promised sub
scriptions are William X. Vanderbilt
$1,000, J. p. Morgan $1,000, c. P. Hunt
ington $1,000 Thomas r. Ryan Of New
York $1,000 and Miss Helen Gould $500.
Alexander I'll. Revell of Chicago reports
that $1,000 has been subscribed by the
merchants of that city General Shat
ter reports that $3.50 has already been
raised by the citizens of San Francisco.
General Corbin was also informed that
the citizens Of st. Louis had subscribed
81 200.

Employees Tear Up Tracks and Seize an
Engine.

Rouse's Point, N. Y, Dec. 25.-As q.
result Of a clash between about fiftv
employees of the Rutland railroad head
ed by Superintendent Pierce and about
seventy-f1ve employees Of the Central
Vermont railroad headed by Superin-
'tendent Of Bridges Foofey, Roadmaster
Elrod and Chief Engineer Robert Ford
yesterday at this place, several rods OF
the Central Vermont tracks was torn
up, the telegraph wires were cut rem
dering communication with the head
office at Rutland impossible and a big
new engine belonging Nto the Central
Vermont road valued at $1,000, was
seized by the Rutland road employees
and is now stored in the round house
OF the Rutland road at this place. The
trouble arose over the building Of new
spile bridge across Lake Champaign to
connect the Ogdensburg and Lake
Champlain division Of the Rutland road
with the new railroad which the latter
road is building through Grand Isle
from Alburgh on the Vermant shore
to Burlington, vt. To prevent this the
Central Vermont officials started to
build spur from the present bridge.
which is owned jointly by the two
roads, to point on the New York shore
which would intercept the new bridge.
which the Rutland road was building.

UNIVERSITY ATHLETTCS.
Trainer NcNGasters Oh the Situation
Hopes for Next Year.

Princeton, N. j., Dec. 25.-Jack Nc
Masters, Harvard's athletic trainer,
who is spending a few days in Prince
ton visiting his friends J. G. Skirm
and Trainer Goldie of the University
gymnasium, when interviewed to-day
on the university athletic situation in
both baseball and football for the COM
ing season said: II haven't much to
say about the other colleges and uni
versities, but we are very we'll salts
fled at Harvard. AS for the prospects
in baseball we have good reason to be-
lieve that our material is first class
and we hope to turn out a strong team
1t would perhaps be too much to say
that we expect to defeat Princeton, for
with the veterans Hillebrand and Kief-
fer as her battery it will take an ex-
ceptionally good team to defeat Old
Nassau The football outlook for next
season is most encouraging at Harvard
and we hope to turn out q winning
team Although our game with Yale
resulted in tic this fall we certainly
had the better team. We haven't been
defeated in football during the past
two years and we don't expect to be
downed by any team next fall" Nc
Masters said he did not care to discuss
the relative strength of the leading
football teams for the approaching sea-
son, but said he thought that Harvard,
Yale, Princeton and Pennsylvania
would all turn out strong teams.
