Hartford, CT, Nov, SO.-Friends o.
Mrs Consuelo Howe are busily- circu
lating a report that she is about t.
come into a fortune Of 100000 There
is plenty of romance in the story told
here tonight The name Of one of
Americas richest families is whispered
and promises are made of important
developments to come, but there are
missing some very essential links in the
mystery of who left the fortune to
Mrs. Howe?"
Mrs Consuelo Howe is the wife of
George Howe, a grocer, whose store is
at the corner of Washington and Bar
nard streets. Her friends say that the
bequest of 100000 was made by mai
den aunt for whom Mrs. Howe was
named. and who died in New York city
a year and a half ago, leaving an es-
tate of more than a million dollars.

LEAGUENoT RESPONSIBLE

Boston, Nov. 3O.-The Thanksgiving
message sent to President Mckinley by
Erving Winslow, secretary of the Anti
imperialist league, was intended as
personal message from the sender. In
an interview tonight, Mr.. Winslow said
that the expression was in no way con-
nected with the league
Continuing, Mr.. Winslow said: 1.-THE
simple fact of the matter is that l have
been so deeply stirred up by the whole
business, by the death of Aguinaldo's
child, the capture of his mother, the
hunting and marrying of Aguinaldo
himself, that 1 felt just as I said-I
rather be in Aguinaldo's place than in
McKinley's."

a GLORIOUS FINISH.

University of Chicago Closes Its Sea-
son by Defeating Brown.
Chicago, Nov. 30-The University of
Chicago finished her triumphant series
today, by defeating Brown by a score
of II to 6. Only twice in the game did
Brown menace the maroon goal, and
each time Chicago braced with fine
spirit and saved her goal from the
rushes of the Rhode Islanders. From
centre to end, Chicago outpointed
Brown, and gave an exhibition of con-
sistent defense which she has seldom
surpassed.
At no time was Brown able to score
through the line, while Chicago found
large holes at win and sent her fast
backs around the visitors ends for
spectacular runs. Back of the line

With the defeat staring her in the
race, Brown made a grand rally in
the second half and seemed to gain
strength, as the half progressed. When
darkness interviewed she had scored
and was charging into Chicago's line
with fierce low rushes that showed
her spirit was not broken. Without

The Great FuIbaok a Big Factor in
Wisconsin's Victory Over Miohiqan.

Chicago, Nov. 30.-Before probably the
largest crowd that ever gathered to wit
ness foot ball game in the west, the
University of Wisconsin eleven defeated
the University of Michigan eleven today
by score of II to 5. The right leg of
Pat O'Dea, the Wisconsin captain and
fullback, was big factor in the score, as
he was responsible for 10 of the points
scored by the Badgers. Once he lifted
the ball clearly between the goal posts
from the 35-yard line, and once his punt
went so far that Mclean missed 1t, and
fumbling, gave Hyman a chance to fall
on the pigskin behind Michigan's goal
posts, which he did.
The second touchdown by Wisconsin
was made on clean, hard foot ball in the
second half, the light but active lineman
from Wisconsin opening holes in the
Michigan forwards, through which Peele.
Larson. Curtis and Blair plunged for big
gains. The defensive work of the Wis
consin eleven was remaI q able
O'Dea was ruled ont TO- smuggling in the
play that resulted in a touchdown by Hy-
man, and Driver, who took his place, was
inferior in his kicks, though he did
splendid work in plunging through the
line. The way the Badger backs tore
through surprised even enthusiastic root
ers. During most of the game Michigan
was on the defensive. Wisconsin's weak
point was on the left end, The lineup:
