SENATE.

1t was decided to adjourn today un-
til Monday. Bacon's resolution, de-
claring the policy of the United States
toward the Philippine islands, was
laid before the senate. McEnery
democrat of Louisiana, said the ques-
ton presented to congress was diff
ficu1t one, that time could solve. The
Filipinos had no conception of liberty
guided by law. Order, established one
day in the islands, would be succeeded
the next by disorder and anarchy.
He deprecated the condition that
those productions, in the very nature
OF things, were similar to many ar
ticles produced in parts of this coun-
try. The growth of cotton on Luzon,
by the cheap, degraded labor to be
had there, would interfere with the
establishment of cotton mills in the
south and in New England He de-
clared it had been well If Admiral
Dewey had sailed away from Manila
after his famous victory.
The republican caucus in the senate

pending in the Philippines would cas-

Relief Felt at Harvard.

Harvard's lucky seventeen is becoming a
motto a Harvard. Harvard's famous VIC
tory over Yale in '9S was by this score,
and Harvard defeated Carlisle and Penn

There was relief, but little joy, in Cam
bridge yesterday. Before the Saturday 5
game Harvard expected defeat but was
keyed to a terrific battle. The storm which
was let loose on Pennsylvania in the first
half won the day Harvard had said, never
mind il Pennsylvania does beat us. Yale
is what we are after, but still A Pennsyl-
vania defeat would mean a blot on the
record even If Yale fell.
But Harvard defeated Pennsylvania and
Harvard is relieved. The team isSin good

did not expect a perfect lot of men. Ellis
received bad kick or two, and is on
crutches, and so is Sawin. but few days
will fix them. Kendall and DAILY played a

lessened during the hours that have inter-
vened since Cornell administered the Sc
we're drubbing to Princetons eleven. In
deed the more the situation is discussed
by the students the worse and more dis
couraging it appears The question is,
what will be the outcome of the game at
Columbia when Cornell could handle the
Tigers so easily. Everybody expects a few
changes in the personnel of the team when
1t meets Columbia tomorrow.
Certain of the Tiger players did such no.
toriously poor work that prudence would
suggest change. Meier probably will be
substituted for Duncan at quarter and
possibly a change may be made at one end
of the line. Duncans playing Saturday
cannot be accounted for He is an unusu-
ally steady and consistent player, yet in
Saturdays game he seemed incapable of
holding the ball and oftentimes let oppor-
tunities go by while he stood and looked
on in a daZed manner
Meier, who replaced him in the second
half, played a better game and probably
will supplant Duncan in the Columbia con-
test,

are ragged. Yesterday some emergency

Stage Fright Defeated Quaker

The University of Pennsylvania foot ball
team, accompanied by 1000 students and
alumni returned to Philadelphia yester-
day from Cambridge. Pennsylvania de-
feat by Harvard came as complete sur
prise to the supporters of the Quakers A
close score had been expected. and no one
was prepared for the overwhelming defeat
which Pennsylvania received.
There is considerable speculation as to
whether or not Pennsylvania will abandon
the guards back because Harvard was able
to stop it effectively. The sentiment seems
to be that Woodruff &ill still continue to
make use of it, although he may be com
PEELED to vary the play more. AS a mat
ter of fact, this Is the only play which
Pennsylvania has left. From now on Wood
ruff will work to get the team to run up
respectable scores against Lafayette, the
Indians and Cornell.
Pennsylvanians who saw the game with
Harvard charge that defeat was due to
the stage fright of several members of
the team. coupled with the fact that Cap
tain Hare tried to do all the playing for
Pennsylvania. Spectators also are willing
to admit that Hare was outgeneraled by
DAILY. Critics say that Pennsylvania
should have tried end running by giving
the ends halves and tackles opportu-
nifty to carry the ball.

The second team of Moline High

Heart academy, Davenport, % to U.
Championship Not Settled.
There seems to be no hope of def
nitely settling the western champion
ship this season. Iowa and Mime
sofa, the two universities with I'M
beaten elevens, have spoken out posi-
lively and finally against a post
season game, so the matter remains
where it stood a week ago, with two
teams having clean records and strong
claims and q third so nearly equal as
to leave doubt in the minds of some
as to its relative standing. 1t seems
fair to allow Iowa and Minnesota
equal claims, though the Hawkeyes
have made bigger scores than Mime
sofa and have not been tied in any
game this season. However. Iowa's
game is calculated to pile up big
scores against weak teams, the run
ming game yielding faster gains than
the heavy line-bucking used by Min
nesota. Again, Iowa has not met as
strong a team as Minnesota or Wis
consin, and has scarcely been forced
to its utmost to win. A meeting be-
tween the Hawkeyes and Gophers
would have settled matters in the only
satisfactory way, and it is subject of
regret that the game was not arranged.
Wisconsin has no challenges for third
place. Iowa gained the respect OF all
college men by practically Offering to
meet Minnesota in a contest for the
championship. That the Gophers did
not see fit to embrace the opportunity
was due to the rigid climate. which
prevents DIR. Williams men from
practicing outdoors even for their
final game with Nebraska. A refusal
to play Wisconsin was to be expected
since the game could not have posi-
lively settled the Championship.
