ON THE GRIDIRON.

New Haven Oct S-A days rest did much to brighten the Yale varsity squad and the practice yesterday af- ternoon was of a first class quality. The preliminary practice had more than usual of the line work in it. Un- der the direction of Parson Cutten, John Hall and Captain Gould the men were lined up and at the snap of the ball sent against each other to devel- op both aggressiveness and defence. The varsity squad was but slightly changed from the lineup in the first of the Tufts game. Ferguson was put ill Captain Gould's place, Swan occu- pying Rafferty's place at right end, and the backs were the same.
 The first inclination to deviate from straight football playing was shown when Hogan was used in q mass play that sends the ball through tackle and guard. The tackle took his place di- rectly in front of the half back of the opposite side and. when he struck the line with the ball. had behind him the entire field of backs. Hogan never Tailed to make gain. Weeks. the big Andoyer man, was put in at left tackle on the college team. He made a great deal of trouble for Goss, the varsity man. A noticeable change in the col lege team was the playing of "Little'' Benham, the pony quarterback, as quarter the entire half in place of Nor ris, who allowed Tufts to score. A new man who may prove find" is Scott. He came into prominence last Saturday at right half back in the sec ond half and did some excellent work. This afternoon he was played at right half throughout the entire half. alter hating between the varsity and college teams. The coaching force was aug mented yesterday by the addition of Butterworth and Bloomer.
 |to Princeton, N. J.,TOct S.-After the preliminary work yesterday afternoon Captain Pell lined up the varsity and scrub teams for two halves, and the l playing was the most violent seen here l this season. In the first half the scrub played the varsity to standstill and ] prevented the team from scoring. The first team resorted to different styles of play the tackles back formation and | center rushes being used chiefly. The scrubs line held we'll yesterday. but ait times the varsity made good gains. The game on Saturday had no appar- ent Ill effect on any of the players. for every man went into the mesyes- terday with snap and spirit and all played as if they were putting on the finishing touches for big game.

THE AMENDMENTS WON.
People of Connecticut Vote to Revise
 Their Constitution.


 The people of Connecticut are awake. This was evidenced by yesterdays overwhelming votes fer constitutions al convention, for plurality elections and for .enlarging the senate. The fig ures show q majority of over 20.0OO for the first of these reforms, of over 35.OOO for the second and of over 2o,- OGD fer the third.
 Those were the great issues of the day where no local election was held, but the comparative tables reveal that not very large per cent of the city voters turned out. It was the special occasion of the little town elections" wien not q heavy vote is looked for, aud in the larger cities the constitutions al matters alone called for votes. Otn- CTS of the cities had elections of their 'Owll--NeW London, Derby the Nor walks and in this city. There being little to arouse partisan interest, It would be expected that the towns would stand politically about at nor mal. Last year was presidential year, when the republicans had 12o towns and the democrats thirty-seven. This wear. with three towns to hear from, tho figures are 120 and 39, taking the vote for registrars. which shows the party strength by Itself without inf1u- euce of special excitement.
 On the license question comparative y few towns voted. Tn New Haven, Wirdham and Litchfeld counties each no license gains one in Holland county license gains two.

REPORTS IN COTTON CIRCLES.
Fall River Print Cloth Mills May
 Consolidate.

New York, Oct S.-The Journal of Commerce prints the following:
 A report is current i'll cotton circles that large consolidation into new corporation of Fall River print cloth mills is about to be announced. The re- port has taken an apparently speciflc form that the combination will include virtually all the mills except the BOr- den mills and contemplates, moreover, bleaching and printing as a part of the new companys operations. M. D. c. Borden, however, when asked con- corning the reported consolidation, de clared such an arrangement would not be feasible; and when the matter of operating printing plants in connec- tion with the mills was brought to his attention he said he then felt abso- lutely sure that no basis whatever ex- isted for the report. Tn local cotton goods circles the report is believed to be founded upon the fact that import ant stockholders i'll a number Of the mills have become financially and ac- lively identified with the Allen print works of Providence, R. l. It is ex. pected that the output of these mAis win be sent to the Allen print works for printing. and in this way the al lied interests will be placed in nearly the same position as MT Borden's l mills

SHAMROCK TO REMAIN.
Will be Laid Up at New London
 Races in the Spring.

Races in the Spring.
 New York, Oct 8. From present in- dications it is highly probable there will be some very interesting racing among the ninety-foot yachts next season. Sir Thomas Lipton has de- cided to keep. the Shamrock II in America this winter with view of racing her next spring and summer against the Constitution and Columbia. The Shamrock is to be dismantled at once. Her mast will be taken out so that she can pass under the Brooklyn bridge, and she is to be towed, after being stripped, to New London, Conn, there to be laid up for the winter, with the Constitution, which will also have a berth at that place.
 Sir Thomas Lipton is confined to his yacht, the Erin, which is lying off West Twenty sixth street in the North river. His right leg which was hurt while boarding the tender Porto Rico q few weeks ago. is giving him consid- erable pain. The tremendous strain it was subjected to during the recent races is beginning to tell, and his doc tor has ordered absolute rest under the penalty of his being laid up in bed and the possible canceling of all engage ments.
 Elaborate preparations are being made at the New York yacht club te fittingly receive Sir Thomas at the clul tonight. The affair is to be in the nature of a reception. to be followed probably, by few toasts and informa speeches.
