SPEECHES BY IELEPHONE.
Unique Method OF Enjoyment Marrcd
by Bad Weather Conditions.

Boston, Feb. 3.-Unfavorable weather
prevented those of the alumni of the
Massachusetts, Institute Of Technology
who gathered round the banquet board
in this city hearing speeches by tele-
phone at similar gatherings in seven
other cities in the Union. These in Bos-
ton, however, had the satisfaction of
knowing that the words of the presi-
dent of the institute, James w. Crafts,
were distinctly heard in Chicago, as
was an eloquent speech by Mayor
Quincy. The banquet in this city took
place at the club house on Newbury
street, and the hundred or more who
gathered We're each provided with re-
ceiver, while the speakers as well as the
presiding officers had large transmit
ters. The weather which all the after
noon had been somewhat against good
wire conditions, grew worse as the eve-
ming progressed, owing to the cold,
sleety rain, but the Boston speeches
were sent off in good shape. When it
came to receiving responses from diff
ferent cities, New York, Philadelphia,
Washington, Pittsburg. Chicago, Mil
waukee and st. Louis, the Boston end
of the wire heard only tumble of in
distinct sounds. The musical part of
the programme was however, some
what better, and with additions from
nearby towns the evening was spent
enjoyably.

After the StetsOn Millions,

Kansas City, Mo-. Feb. Mrs.
Katherine Shirley of this city who has
frequently made claim to the $4,000, 900
estate of John Stetson of Boston, will
soon send an attorney to that city to
fight for her alleged rights. Mrs. Shr-
ley's claim to the estate is that she is
the daughter of Kate Stokes, the act
ress who wa married to John Stetson
and to whom he willed all his property
at his death in 1896. Mr.. Stetson died
after a brief illness, his wife following
within ten days, and leaving no will.
Stetson's father contested the will,
claiming undue influence, but the courts
upheld the document. Ada Richmond,
an actress, then sued for an interest,
claiming she was Stetson's common law
wife, but she also was defeated. The
contest is now between the mother and
daughter of Kate Stokes.

THE STORM IN COLORADO.
Loss to Railroads Estimated at $4,000
Day.

Denver, Col, Feb. Sit has been
many years since the Colorado railway
had to contend with such conditions as
| those now prevailing in the mountain
regions. The loss to the railways in this
state is estimated at $25, 900 a day. One
thousand men have been shovelling
snow for several days. Over 500 miles
of road in the mountains have been at
times shut off from communication
with the ain lines Storm-bound pas
sengers are fed and cared for by the
railway companies. The main line Of
the Denver and Rio Grande railway. be-
tween the east and west will be reop aned
at once if no further snow slides oc
cur. On the mountains loads of cattle
are freezing and starving to death and
nothing can be done to save them. In
Eastern Colorado hay is being hauled
long distances over the prairies to feed
cattle and it is hored to avoid heavy
losses of live stock if the storm and
cold abate within a day or two. How
ever, there will be some losses of stock
that is not closely herded. The weather
bureau predicts continued cold weather
and snowfall tonight.

FORFEITED SEATS IN HOUSE
CONGRESSMEN THAT ACCEPTED
COMMISSIONS IN ARMY.
Finding of the Judiciary Committee
NTnjOr-Gcnera1 Wheeler of Alabama,
Colonel Campbell of Illinois, Colonel
COlson of Kentucky and Major Rob-
bins of Pennsylvania Named.

Washington, Feb 3.-The inquiry or
dered by the house of representative
as to what members had forfeited thei
! seats by reason of accepting other of
! fees ended to-day with a finding b,
the judiciary committee that Major
! General Wheeler a member from Ala
bama; Colonel James r. Campbell o.
Illinois, Colonel David G.. Colson O.
Kentucky and Major Edward e. Rob
bins of Pennsylvania had vacated theil
seats in the house by accepting commits
sions in the army. At the same time
the committee determined that none o1
the members of congress serving or
civil commissions had thereby vacated
their seats in the house.
The judiciary committee has been
carrying on the inquiry for several
days. General Henderson made the
following statement summing up what
had been done: "The committee con-
sidered in order the cases Of members
of the house who were civil officers
first, the members of the postal COM
mission, Moody, Catchings and Flem-
ing; second, the members of the indus
trial commission, Gardner, Lorimer, OF
jen, Livingston and Bell; third, the
member of the Canadian commission,
Payne; fourth, the member of the
Hawaiian commission, Hit, and
fifth, the officers appointed by Speak
er Reed, such as visitors to
West Point, regents of the Smithsonian
and trustees of other public institutions
in which the government has an inter-
es. In all of these cases the committee
find that they are not officers within the
meaning of article /, section of the
constitution. The result of this finding
is that such officers do not forfeit their
seats in congress by virtue of accepting
such Offices Then the committee find
that Joseph Wheeler, Edward e. Rob-
bins, David G. Colson and James r.
Campbell after being qualified as men,
bers of congress and acting as such,
having accepted commissions in the
United States army then and thereby
vacated their seats in the Fifty-fifth
General Wheeler was seen after the
finding was announced, but asked to be
excused from commenting on the deci-
sion, as it was in the nature Of prejudi-
cial privilege. 1t is said General Wheel
er will take no action for the present as
the finding Of the committee Is yet to be
passed upon by the house. The fact
that Mr. Jenkins voted against unseat-
ing General Wheeler and the others may
lead to a minority report, although no
notice of such was given.

YALE WINS BY YILE LUCK.
Defeats Brown at Hockey in Last Five
Seconds of Game.

New York, Feb. 3.-Yale, unbeaten in
the intercollegiate hockey champion
ship, had fortune with her tonight in
the game with Brown at st. Nicholas
rink, and by lucky stroke scored the
goal that held her safe in first place,
just five seconds before the end of the
game. The play at the opening was de-
cidedly in Yale's favor, the New Haven
men scoring two goals in the first Pc
riod, while the Browns failed to make
a tally. In the second half, after Yale
had earned a third goal, Brown rallied
and made three in succession, tieing the
score. The contest was very exciting
after that and almost at the end of the
time limit Palmer took a pass from
Barnet and sent the rubber through the
posts, giving Yale the victory.

President Eliot Supports Three Years
College COurse-Athlctics.

Cambridge, Mass, Feb. 3.-The annua
reports of the president and treasurer
| of Harvard college to the board Of over
seers, was published to-day. AS usual
President Eliot's comments on the rec
ord Of the past year and his suggestions
for the future, contain many features of
general interest. He sums up the rec
ord of Harvard eplistments in the war
with Spain, which, according to the lat
est returns number about 400 and con-
cludes as follows: 'The effort of the
president and deans was to prevent
hasty and inconsiderate enlistment, but
not to discourage the enlistment of able
bodied young men, of legal age, whose
family circumstances warranted them
to offer their lives to the country. So
pedient, especially in democracies, that
the best educated young men bear their
full share in wars hardships and dan
gers. The highly educated class must
show itself as brave, tough and disin-
terested as any other, and as faithful to
ideals. If it's education has been right
it will show itself superior in these re-
spects to every other Glass;
President Eliot refutes the popular
idea that high scholars are almost al
ways men of poor physique, by table
showing that, whereas, So per cent. of
the whole number of students pass the
physical examination satisfactory this
is done by SO per cent. of the scholar
ship winners The president has looked
into the claim that the highly, competi-
tive athletic sports are especially
useful in developing the qualities of a
soldier and decided against it, support
ing his opinion by showing the small
percentage of athletes among Harvard
volunteers in the late war.
Speaking of intercollegiate athletics,
President Eliot remarks that progress
has been made in intelligent manage
ment and that evils of excessive train
ing, though still manifest are lessened.
He deprecates the intercollegiate fresh
man contests and gives data showing
the poor scholarship of men on fresh
men football teams Agreeable local
is the substitute he would
recommend for excessive inter- collegiate
competitions.
The question of shortening the college
course to three years is again brought
UP and the plan supported by figures
showing a large number of men who
even now complete all, or nearly all of
the requirements for the bachelors de-
gree in three years. In reviewing the
work Of the different departments of the
President Eliot mentions the
embarrassment felt on all sides, owing
to the low ratio of interest occurring
from the several endowment funds.
Among the more pressing needs of the
are mentioned those of a
new building of the medical school, a
new recitation hall for some Of the col
ege departments, building for the ar
department a furnished dor
mitory for short-residence students, and |
increased endowments generally. The |
-reasurers report shows receipts of ST.

not of this, or that interview, but
whether bad food was furnished the
