ball controversy between Indiana Univer-
sity and De Pauw on the field here Mon
day came up to-day before the faculty ath-
letic committee and it was unanimously de-
cided that all relations be severed as to
athletic sports. AS to the receipts Of the
Monday game, it was decided to divide the
proceeds equally, in accordance with the
original contract between the two teams.
The decision meets with the general appro-
baton of Indiana University students.
After reading De Pauws explanation in
yesterdays Journal, Mr.. Searles thinks it
right that the reason for his decision in the

MUNCIE, md Nov. 1.-THE largest pay
roll ever made by one of the large mills and
factories In Muncie was at the Indiana iron
works of the Republic Iron and Steel Com
pany. in Muncie, last Saturday. The amount
paid out was but 500 less than $50. 900. for
two weeks work. The big pay comes as
result of the recent increase the employees
have secured, due to the sliding wage scale
signed by the manufacturers and Amalga-
mated Iron and Steel Workers last summer.
The recent spurts iron has taken caused an
increase of 30 cents per ton to puddlers
and an increase of per cent. to finishers,
equivalent to 81 per day advance to most
of the men. This makes a total increase of
nearly 90 per cent. all around over last
years wages.
