yBRTEN coNFEssEs AGAIN.
This Time the Trainer duplicates sey-
 eral Other Horsemen.


 Lexington, Ky, Nov 9-Dan O'Brien, the trainer who admitted that he had the three-eighths pole at the Lexingtan race track removed for the purpose of trying to sell c. H. Mackay yearling colt on a false trial. and who '.as- Sumed the entire responsibility." made an added confession before the breeders investigating committee here yesterday afternoon. OBrien. in his statement, divided the responsibility. and said that Colonel Jack Chinn and Phil T. Chinn were to get share of the money, and that the owners of the colt H. A. Engman and Lewis Wilker- son of this city, were implicated to the extent of knowing that some crooked work was going to be done
 Four witnesses were heard by the committee yesterday. They were Dr Robert Bryan, Hal P. Headley. Dick Wilson and Dan O'Brien. The testi- mony was as to whether O'Brien had made certain statements to them. and the testimony of Dr Bryan was large ly made up of narration of the affair which O'Brien had made to him for the purpose of comparing it with the statement O'Brien had made before the committee. By his refusal to make full confession in the first instance OBrien has placed himself in pecul- far position, which largely affects the cfedlD1lity of the further testimony he has given and the committee is con fronted with the proposition of beliay- ing or not theetestimony of a man who has proved himself unworthy of ere denee.
 OBrien on coming from the commit tee room refused to discuss his testi- mony, but said that he had refrained from making full confession until after the election. As Lewis WiIker- son. one of the owners of, the colt. was elected sheriff of Fayette county at tuesdays election, the remark had an unmistakable significance. Engman and Wilkerson denied emphaticallv that they knew anything of the affair. MT Engman said: "N'e had no con- ferences with the Chinns and did not even know to whom the colt was going to be Driced.'' Phil Chinn last night denied that either he or his father had any connection with the affair.
 1-NA C AS ttc lAuCu lJOlllAGS SdS uOrSG In this deal" said Chinn, ssas far as my father and I are concerned. It is true that We were at the track with Trainer Hill, O'Brien. Hal P. Headley and others. I think my father sus- pected something at the time. for he walked up the stretch with Hill, O'Brien and others as far as the quar- ter pole and a little beyond it, and O'Brien was fidgety and turned back several times. It is now clear to me why he did so. If we had had any thing to do with the deal my father would scarcely have taken Hill where it would have been quite easy for him to discover the fraud.''
 The exact language of O'Brien's statement is unobtainable. as the mem- bers of the committee refuse to give it out. Major Barak c. Thomas. the veteran breeder. admitted that the tes- timony was very sensational. An other meeting will be held on Wednes- day. after which the testimony will be given out. '''.s

WITH THE POLOISTS.
ssas9 AS Tips About the Players. in Both Leagues.

7 <Af@ LedSuCSs ts
 John H. Berry, the old New Britain goal tender, who was With that team in 1897 and 1SSo, has applied tor 2 po-s sition on the Waterb ff1'y. team. He is now living in Westerly, R. I. Man ager Harrington has paced his name on the list for approval or disapproval later.
 Kid Conway is expected in Water bury today, and he will at once begin plans for the calling of his team to- gether. The names of the team will be announced some time next week.
 Thomas L. Meade, who claims to be fast rusher and who writes from Sa- lem, has applied for a position on the local team He is an unknown quality and probably will not be seen on the local team.
 A final offer has been made to Hip son by Manager Harrington, and if he does not accept another rnsher who wants to come here, and who is one of the stars in the American league will be taken on. Hipson has been of fered more than he is getting up in the other league an he may be induced to come down here.
 Manager Harrington has now three goal tenders that he can select from, Kid Lee, John H. Berry and John Al len. The latter was on New Haven's list. but he has been turned over to Waterbury.
 Evidently the padding of the at tendance up in the American league has begun already. It is easy enough to detect it because the papers vary so in the numbers given. They should secure censor up there at once and not give the snap away.
 Before the season has advanced very far you vii see all the old players looking for berths down in this league. Many are looking with longing eyes in this direction, only waiting the tele- gram telling them to come on and get good money. Things look pretty rosy down this way just now.
 It is rumored that Wodtkes is. not satisfied in Salem. and is liable to take a trip to the Nutmeg state in a short time
 The best goal tend in the business is described by Lowell paper as "a big, fat man named Burgess Lowell is painfully new to the game.
 There are many familiar faces in Connecticut at present. Billy Dawson and Paul Gardner are there Gun ningham, the old Plymouth player, has a good berth Cashman may tend goal for the Meridens. Lines are out for him.
 Captain Fitzgerald will keep that title this year. The offer he received from Meriden is satisfactory and in cludes the captaincy of the team. He has already secured Walton to go there with him, and has one or two others in sight. The salaries in the Connec- ticut league are as large as they ever were in the Southeastern-B -Brockton Times. 5lflilii4
 Fred Jean of Lowell has become su- perstitious. After the Clinton game he said: ssWhen I. play an opening game on a Friday night after this you will know it. Portland, Salem and Lowell opened on a Friday night and every one of them lost their games. Portland shook it's hoodoo and turned around and won, but Lowell or Salem have not shaken it yet Brockton En- terprise. rad
 It was also learned from good au- thority that Tom Cotter would bring his Salem team here in minute if he had an opportunity. Salem has al- ways proved a dead one. COtter says

ON THE GRIDIRoN.
The Teams are Battling for suprema-
 ox This Afternoon.

GY ms AIleEut0us
 New Haven. Nov 9.-Yale football coaches were much elated yesterday over the improvement shown in the ag- gressiye work of the varsity line. The college eleven was unable to get the ball even into the varsity territory. Twice in the first half the varsity pushed the ball over the college line in addition to which DeSaulles kicked a. goal from the thirty-yard line. In the second there was another touch down for the varsity with an entirely new back field and two new men in the line. Captain Gould was entirely out of the game yesterday, as was >Goss. Hogan was only played part of the first half In the second half Hart was played on the varsity and succeeded in making one of the largest individual gains of the afternoons play. He squirmed through the col lege line for a good twenty yards. I'm mediately after a touchdown made by Wilhelmi on line play, the varsity was lined up on the college twenty-five yard line.
 Princeton, Nov 9.-DeWitt punted yesterday in fine form and in the pre- liminary work scored several place kicks from as far back as the fifty yard line. The practice proper was light. It consisted salmosts entirely of drill in kicking The varsity scored once, when Dewitt booted the leather from midfield to Bayles. the scrubs fullback. who was rushed over the second e1even's goal line for a safety by the Tigers fleet ends. Before turn ing in for the day each of the four coaches, Poe Lea, Kelly and Arm strong, lectured the players. They tried to impress on the men the seri- ousness of tosday's struggle against West Point.
 New York, Nov 9.-With the return of Weekes, Morley and Mcclellan. Co., lumbia's varsity team was practically i intact again at yesterdays practice. Smith, Lancon and Kindgen. 1t is true, were not out, but their absence was not due to any injuries. Their places were taken i'll the lineup by Duell, Duden and Whitwell and Angell at right halfback, right guard and right tackle respectively. Irvine and Whit wei both appeared with bandages on their heads, but played as if they were unscratched. Bayard Boyesen. whose injured knee was hurt again yesterday, was unable to play Notwithstanding the fact that hard game is expected with Syracuse to-day there was a period of hard scrimmage work yes .terday.
 Philadelphia, Nov 9-Both the liar yard and Pennsylvania teams were on Franklin field yesterday afternoon, but not. at the same time. The Harvard men arrived in the city on the morn ing train and at about , o'clock took buses for the field. They were there about fifteen minutes and then depart ed. Pennsylvania squads were out earlier i'll the afternoon, running through their plays and signals. That was all Pennsylvania did yesterday, the men resting for the big game. Last evening a mass meeting of students was held in the dormitories. where speeches were made Then the stu dents formed torchlight procession and marched down to the hotel where the Harvard team is stopping and cheered the visitors

THE FISHERIES SOCIETY.

Ihere Is no reason for any one to be-
lieFe, as a contemporary assumes tc
do, that the new society for the pro-
lection of the fisheries has private
axes to grind. The man who circulat-
ed the paper organizing the society,
Mr.. Allan Herbert is noted for his pub
lie spirit and those who met with him
at the Chamber of. Commerce rooms the
other day proposed nothing beyond
laws prohibiting the SEEMING of min
nows and creating a fish hatchery.
both measures being desirable from the
point of view of those who want to
make sea-food abundant and cheap. (
1t is gratuitous slur to say or to
hint that Mr.. Herbert and his associ-
ates want to induce Congress to pre-
serve the system of exclusive fishing
rights which has so long been an an
jury to the many and source of profit
TO the few. Against such rights Mr..
Herbert has written and talked for
years; and when Congress interfered
with them he was among the first to
congratulate the Hawaiian people. And
1t is largely in their interest that he
ana ms friends are working now He
and they want to stop the ruthless de-
struction of minnows SO that once
more the sea banks and interior waters
may TEEN with big fish, thus reducing
the cost of living and adding to the
available food resources.
Such motive deserves the support
ana announcement of the press: not
its cynical disparagement.

DEATH THE HACKhtAN.

An agent of the Board of Health, en-
trusted with the serious duty of trans
ferring lepers from the steamer to Ka-
lihi station, was guilty of an act yes
terday which may be the means of
spreading the leprous scourge in Ho-
nolulu.
The story is told in the Advertisers
local columns and needs but a brief
recapitulation here. Eight lepers, one
of them in very bad condition, We're de-
livered to the agent and he, instead of
taking them to Kalihi in a Board of
Health ambulance, hired two hacks
from Hackstand 81. These public We
hicles took the rotting creatures to Ka-
lihi and returned to their stands to ac-
cept any other passengers who might
offer fares.
After the lepers. what persons rode
in these lazar hacks last night? Did
some women, dressed decollete, who
We're going to a,danee? Did some mer-
ry party of diners who were bound for
restaurant or returning from it to
their homes? Did some tourist, on
pleasure bent, sit where the lepers had
sat? Who can say? The hacks with
the. reek of the plague were at the ser
vice of the public and no yellow flag
or warning hand was raised to protect
the people from them. Death the Hack
man sat on the front seat. Who rode
behind him?
What is the responsibility of the
Board of Health? We believe that |
body would have stopped it's agent in |
time had it known of his rash act But |
that does not excuse it's failure to have
an ambulance ready for all transfers
of lepers. Nor does it excuse. the en- /
ployment, as a guard and guide for /
lepers, of man belonging to a race
which looks upon leprosy with indiffer-
ence and has no computations about l.
exposing himself and other people to
It's ravages.

THREsHlNG OLD STRAW.

l. The same little groups of malcon.
tents that tried to haul President Dole
over the Goals some years ago fer the
expenses of his trip to the United
states and at a later period wreaked
themselves upon Gen. Hartwell, now
propose to report Auditor Austin to the
Grand Jury because he will audit the
Legitimate expense accounts of Land
commissioner Brown, who has gone to
Washington to confer with the Interior
| Department.
we should suppose that the ridiculous
failure of the last attempt to use the
Grand Jury for factional purposes
would inspire a lucid interval in the
SeWall remnant. One heard dire and
dreadful threats when the first Grand
Jury met of what would be done to
Drlng the Territorial authorities to
grief. They were all to be grilfed or
boiled in oil or something, of the sort.
Day by day the spectacle of a Grand
Jury with "a lighted fire . was pa
raded before a GREATNESS public. but
In the end the Grand Jury not only re-
FUSED to burn anybody but visited its
reproof upon the organ of the malcon-
tents and incidentally sniggered a
polltlcal judge in the face for bringing
empty cases to it's notice.
Ii an attempt is made to punish the
for sending Mr.. Brown to
washington on public business at pub
lie expense we shall expect the Grand
jury to dismiss the threatened pro
ceedings with sheer. 1t would be
singular indeed if the Territory, alone
OF all in the Union, could not send a
to Washington when it
needed to and had a fund from which
the expenses could be drawn. But in |
point of fact it has done it, can do it,
may do it again if it desires and in |
The act will stand no more in danger |
u the Grand Jury than the police and |
he health authorities did the last time /
here was factional crusade.

MILEs-AL6ER CONTROVERSY.

/ OF the merits of the quarrel ovel

their tropical experience to draw upon

admitted without impeaching the hour

some, but if judged by smell after a
brief exposure to tropical warmth it
would, perhaps, be rejected as bad by
a person brought up on the fresh beef
! of northern ATTITUDES. But it is not un-
wholesome unless exposed, away from
ice, longer than was usually the case in
Cuba.
AS for the standard canned beef over
which General Miles again raises a hue
and cry and which the yellow journal
lists slandered into uttermost disrepute,
the same brands were and are used in
the Philippines and in the Navy with
out causing complaint 1t is quite true
that such beef does not always look
well under tropical sun, but where
is the authenticated case of poisoning
that can be traced to it? One of the
strongest guarantees of the purity OF
this beef, apart from the tests just re-
ferred to, may be found in the fact
that after the yellow journals had
worked off their sensation the British
Government filed a $250,000 order with
