The New York papers published Sat

but they have not even reached Italy,
and even if they had their trip is not for

TROUBLE AT WASHBURN
Dfssension In Football Team and
Discharge of Lawrence Banks.

The dissension in the Washburn football
team has assumed such proportions that
it may mean the weakening of the team,
There has been rivalry and jealousy in
the team for some time and it came to
the surface before the Indian game at
Lawrence Saturday when the question of
the playing OF Coach Owen at quarter
came up. A few members of the team
refused to play unless owen went to quar-
ter and the majority refused to play un-
less Stewart played the position. 1t seems
ed for time as If there would be no
game but the same delegation of Elks
which accompanied Washburn TO Denver
went to Lawrence and managed to smooth
matters over and have the game played.
1t is reported today that the faculty has
refused to allow Lawrence Banks to con-
tinue on the team. The Denver experts
pronounced Banks the greatest end player
that ever played in that city any team
and if he leaves the Washburn line it
will cripple the team. Unless the trou-
BILE in the team can be settled the future
success of the team is in doubt. The
game at Lawrence. Saturday could have
been won by Washburn had there been
harmony among the players.

QUEER ROW IN PARIS.
Capt. Coblentz Rides Horse at Au-
teuil Despite Opposition.

Paris, Nov "a lively incident oc-
cur11ed at the Auteun races yesterday y
afternoon over the entry in the military
steeplechase of the Jewish captain, Cob
lentz, whose recent treatment by
brother officers at the military school
in Fontainebleau led to a severe diseip-
iHaIy measure on the part of General
Andre, minister of war.
The anti-Semites had announced that
they would make trouble if Captain
Coblentz insisted on riding, and the po-
lice had taken precautions. Captain
COblentz, mounted on his horse. East
ern Star, was greeted with insulting
cries imm ediately on entering the track.
He promptly took out a visiting card
and asked if there was any one present
who wished to exchange with him. No
reply was Forthcoming.
Captain Coblentz rode In the race, but
was not placed. When he returned to
the paddock hostile cries were again
raised. His friends retorted with shouts
of "Vive la republique!" and "A bas les
clericalsl'
Several scuff1es followed, but the po-
lice quelled the disorder. National
ist municipal councillor and a Jew, Who
had exchanged blows. We're arrested, but
We're subsequently sreleased.
Captain Coblentz, who is an artillery CT
FontaiEebleau. Fcoie d'App'ication from a
north srn garrison. exchanging with an in
structOr in the school, who had finished
his term of service in that capacity. On
his arrival at Fentainebleau, he left card :
for his comrades. but his calls were not
returned, and one of the officers. Major
Duval de GraVille, undertook to exprS $
to the minister of war the feelings cf the
other officers. who had decided to adopt
toward Captain Coblentz, because he is
a Jew an attitude eaIcula ted to make his
stay among them intOlerable.
In view of this. General Andre punished
Major Duva1 de Graville with fife days
imprisonment. in addition TO sending him
from the school to a regiment in the prov
inces The minister of war also sent back
to their regiments six other officers.
NJ. de Blowitz. the Paris correspondent
of the London Times, commenting on the
incident at the time said:
''Fhere is no question of the Dreyfus
affair involved. Tt is solely because of
anti-Semitie passion, and a question of
extreme importance arises. If French of
ficers refuse to tolerate Jews in their
ranks. the Jews can no longer be allowed
to enter Saint Cyr or the Polytechnique
or the EcOle Centrale. since with rare ex-
captions in the cases # tn Polytechniaue
all the pupils of these three schools on
leaving, become infantry, cavalry or ar
tillery officers.
ION the other hand, there is no reason
why private soldiers should be less fanat-
ieal than their officers and why they
should tolerate Israelite corp rails and
sergeants. The only possible conclusion
therefore, is in order to avoid state of
things SO impossible in a country where
military service is compulsory, all men1-
bers of the Jewish religion must heuce-
forth be dispensed from military service

shaking took place. Two free holders
of his ward, one a Republican and the
other a Democrat volunteered to stand
for him, and they, as well as Mr- Bryan,
We're sworn as to the facts in the case.
The presidential candidate was granted
no exemption by the judge of election,
the Rev. AIr. Ludden, a Lutheran minis
ter of Republican proclivities- Mr.. Bry-
an was required to give MS place or res
idence, the state where he was born, and
also inform the officials as to how long
he had lived in the precinct, the ward
and the state Having obtained this in
formation. Mr.. Ludden asked Mr. Bryan
in accordance with the law of the state,
whether he wished to state the name of
the party with which he affiliates. With
this Mr.. Bryan quickly responded; THE
Democratic party and with a smile he
added: With friendly feelings towards
two others
Mr. Bryan's ballot was No. 183. AS he
was voting several cameras were turned
upon him and the election judge re-
quested all present TO remove their hats.
As Mr. Bryan left the booth he was ask
ed if he had cast a straight ballot, to
which he replied: Yes, the electoral
candidates are all friends of mine"
Mr.. Bryan was escorted to his home
and there made a brief address to the
friends assem- bled. Standing on his front
porch he said;
''Gentlemen-I want to thank you for
the loyalty You have shown, not only
in this campaign, but in the campaigns
which have preceded 1t. and I hope that
within eighteen hours we may be able
to meet again and rejoice over a victory.
We opened this campaign at Kansas
City by inGorsing the Declaration of IN
pendence, written by Thomas Jeffer-
son. 1 want to close this campaign by
reading an extract from a speech made
by Abraham Lincoln; for in this cam
paign we have been quoting the speech
es of Lincoln and invoking his authority,
as Lincoln in his first campaign quoted
from the utterances of Jefferson and in
vOkeG his authority:
- Many free countries have lost their
liberties, and ours may lose hers. but
if she shall, may it be my proudest
plume, not that I was the last to desert
her. but I never deserted her.
i will add that / think we shall sue
ceed today. But if we fail be it SO; we
shall have the proud consolation of say
ing to our conscience and to the de-
parted shadow of our country's free
dom that the course approved by our
