1t is announced that "the powers are
in accord" as to the Samoan settle
ment, it having been decided that
nothing shall be done by the inves.i-
eating commissioners except by a
unanimous vote. This of course de-
lights the Berlin press, for Germany
will still be in a position to stand off
and block whatever moves the United
States and England may desire to
make.

Controller Tracewell of the treasury
department has evolved an ingenious
scheme for knocking down the civil
service rules. He argues that, as these
rules are rot a legislative enactment
but an executive order, the executive
has a right to ignore them whenever
he sees fit, and as the heads of de-
partments are agents of the executive,
they have a similar privilege of disre-
garding them. Accordingly, Controller
Tracewell has announced that the ac-
counting officers of the treasury must
not refuse to pay salaries to employees
that have been appointed in violation
of the civil service rules. This would
compel the president TO accept respon-
sibility for whatever political appoint
ments the department heads might
choose to make, and it may be doubt
ed if he is yet ready to shoulder such
a load as that. A revision of the ruling
seems to be desirable.

Dispatches direct from Samoa show
conclusively the German responsibility
for the trouble that led TO Mataafa's
revolt and the Smelling of the native
villages. Admiral Kautz was acting
well within the authority conferred
upon him in deposing Mataafa, Tor he
had the authority of the consular court
behind him. 1t was the proclamation
of the German consul that caused the
mischief, by refusing to abide by the
decision Of the court and inferentiaily
offering the support of Germany 70 the
natives in rebellion against the Berlin
treaty, the fundamental law of the
land.

This morning The Spy publishes the
verdict of the license commissioners.
There is nothing sensational in the re-
port, though there are many disappoint-
ed applicants for liquor licenses as
usual There has been more general in
terest in the contest over the State
Mutual restaurant, than in any other.
AS there is still one vacancy and the
commissioners have voted to permit the
proprietor of the restaurant to adver-
tise his application again, it looks as
though he stood a good chance of
securing a license if he can show that
the objections named by those who OPP
posed the license no longer exist.

Samuel Kirschbaum, Abraham Davis
and Louis Silverman were fined the
other day for picking rags. Why
should picking rags be an offense in
the eyes of the law? Had Samuel and
Abraham and Louis been taken red
handed while picking strawberries on
the common or while picking locks or
pockets, or as they were picking their
way without license across
the muddy streets of the city,
they might properly have been
regarded as suspicious characters
and sentenced to six months under
water. If the ordinances and officials
can stand some of the rag-time melo-
dies that are inflicted upon the public,
rag picking without a license ought not
to be a fragrant offense. Samuel and
Abraham and Louis should give up rag
picking and take to rag acting.

WORK ON THE GRID|RON.


The Easy Meats were far from easy last
night in the Hudson County League Tour
nament- The five men who have organ
lied under this name got in and won two
games IN a handy manne from teams
that are by no means poor. The Clintons
won the odd game with an excellent score.
The first game drew the Boulevards and
Clintons together, and it was a hot game
from the go off. Both sides tossed the
pins about in great shape until the last
frame was reached. when it was a case of
the strongest finish gaining a victory. The
Clintons got In good and piled up the fig
ures a little too fast for their opponents,
and finally won out by nine pins. Rud-
dick was high and A. Buchtenkirk second.
An even one hundre pins separated the
B~oulevards from the Easy Meats at the
close of the second game, and the latter
on top. Hosinger was only three pins
below the double century figures.
It was evident the Easy Meats were bent
on winning their games by as big a
margin as they possibly could. The Clin-
tons. opposed them in the last game of the
and found themselves 101 pins be-
hind at the finish. Hoslnger was again
the star performer. The scores

Secret practice was held at Princeton
yesterday for the first time during the
season. The first game in which the team
will figure after this secret practice IS to
be played tomorrow at Manhattan Field.
when the Indians will seek the scalps OF
the Tigers. There is a great deal Of in
terest in the game and the Varsity has
been studied carefully by the undergrad
yates and all interested in the yellow and
black. Coach Brown gave out the fol-
lowing about yesterdays practice:
THE play was necessarily short. but, IN
the thirty minutes allotted to them, the
Varsity men scored four touchdowns.
The team play was faster and quicker
thai that shown In yesterdays game
against North Carolina, and the coaches
have every reason to feel encouraged over
the work. But the eleven is looking for
ward to a hard game in Saturday and 1t
is safe to say that we will not be caught
mapping as we were once this season
The men are in splendid condition phys
caily and ready to put up a. fierce fight"
Palmer and Poe were not in the game,
though all the other regulars were. Lath-
rop, the 81 end, and Roper filled the va
cant positions and did very fine work.
The West Sic Gu is anxious to ar
range games with teams outside of this
city, and has issued a number Of chal-
lenges through its manager J. Messler. Of
No. 46 Culver avenue. The West Sides
will play any team that wishes to meet 1t
here or out of town.
Yale has started scrub practice, and
will work harder as the time for the big
game draws near. Yesterday an hour and
a half was given up to the f~iercest kind of
practice and the work was good enough to
satisfy the coaches. Dupee showed to adj
vantage in punting and ground gaining by
end plays. He also made several success
full attempts to get through the strong
scrub line. Winter and Gould at ends are
not so good as was hoped, but they show
ed an improvement yesterday and the
coaches have strong hopes for the future.
Cutten has announced that he will not
play centre andS the sons of old Eli are de-
spondent. Curha must be put up with but
he is a disappointment.
AT Columbia there is some little fear for
the result of the West Point game, as Will
Smith and Longaere will not be in
the game. The absence of anyone with
the stuff in him for full back is regretted
very much. There is no one who can punt
beyond forty yards and This is giving the
coaches much worry.

REGlMENTAL ATHLETICS.
Colonel Smith Arranging the Series
of Games for the Winter.

Beginning on Friday, November II, and
weekly thereafter, until February 9, a Sc
ries of sports and games will be held
under the auspices of the Athletic Com
mittee of the Fourth Regiment. These
events were spoken Of some time ago,
and the plans for a season Of sports met
with the hearty approval of Colonel
Smith, who has the interests of the mem
bers at heart. He feels confident that such
a plan will arouse considerable interest
among his men. The Colonel has. there
fore, suggested hat aluabie prizes both
for individuals and teams be selected.
These viii be awarded at the end of the
season. There are in all about forty
prizes. The Fourth Regiment contains a
number of crack athletes, as the prizes
and trophies now adjoining conspicuous
positions in the various rooms
will testify. In view of this fact, inter-
esting sport is anticipated. Colonel Smith
will act as referee.
