PENN Def. III CORNELL.
The U. OFF. Was i'm Fine Condition
and Did Not Permit Cornell to
Score. Score Was 81 too,

Yesterday afternoon on Franklin
Field thousands of people witnessed the
foot ball game between the University
of Pennsylvania and Cornell. The boys
from Ithaca had trained hard for this
contest and We're hopeful of victory: Ii
was the general opinion however that
Penn would win, as the men had been
playing good, consistent ball for full
week and that the team was about due
to play her best game
The members of the Cornell team were
filled with determination to wipe out the
disastrous defeat that Penn administered
TO them year ago to the tune Of 20
to 0.
The sons of Old Penn when they went
on the field and We're greeted by the
cheers of the mighty throng, were
found TO be in excellent form and at
once started to play with drtcrmina-
ton that Cornell shodll not score. The
sons OF Ezra Cornell found themselves
al the mercy of the sons of Penn am
rs the game proceeded the cheers of ihe
Cornell admirers grow fainter aud
faintcr and finally only the cheers Of tho
supporters of Old Penn were heard.
Penn run up the score to 81 to o.
The game closed the college ball sea-
son of 1900 which has been a remark
able one. 1t was reported yesterday
that Harvard would without Il doubt
play Penn next year

Constantinople Nov. 27.-The arrival

cumulating of desire to hasten sctta-
ment to the satisfaction of the Un,, Il

| An trade has been issued calling D-
the purchase of cruiser Mt i hiladel ,h..t,
the price for which is to include the

signed for local consumption, in order
to save the face Of the Porte.

ington, and when asked in regard to the
report from London that the Sultan of
Turkey had ordered n fast cruiser from
his trm, and that arrangements had been
MADE Tor the payment of the indemnity
to American missionaries through the
medium of this contract, Mr.. Cramp
stated in most emphatic manner that
as far as his firm was concerned the re-
port was not true. No order or contract,
he said, had been made for the building
OF cruiser for the Sultan of Turkey,
and as far as he knew there was no
Indication of such an order in the i'm
mediate future
Mr.. Cramp said that his firm had had
with the Turkish Gov
errment with respect to the building of
Il cruiser, but the matter had not reach
led conclusion. When the Turkish Ad-
miral was i'll this country short time
ago, Mr.. Cramp said, he called on the
lirm, had some talk about building
vessel. and got estimates, but nothing
had been heard of him since. Mr.. Cramp
denied in the most positive manner that
ne had ever heard of any proposition to
include the American indemnity in the
price of vessel
"Ihe Turkish Government" he said,
never asked us to take off or add cent
o our price. l have never had any com
nunication with the United States off
,lais with regard to this matter. The
government would not consult with me
