Ultimatum Sent to Bacolod
 by General Sumner.
ISLAND OF GUAM SEVERELY SHAKEN.
Government Buildings Badly Dam- aged-SuppIies to Be Sent From ManiIa-Appropriati to Fight
 the Cholera In Panay.

 MANILA, Oct. 7.-General Sumner, who is in command of the American forces on Mindanao island, has sent an ultimatum to the sultan of Bacolod warning him to cease his opposition, to the Americans, calling his attention to the results of the Maciu campaign and promising him the same punishment if he continues his opposition. Whatever the sultan's reply may be, immediate action against him is not probable.
 General Sumner has sent battalion of infantry back to Malabang and is going himself to Iligan to prepare plans for the construction of trail from Iligan to Lake Lanao.
 The collier Austin, which has just arrived here from Guam, brings re ports of a series of severe earthquakes there Sept. p, as result of which the marine barracks at Agana and other buildings collapsed and much other damage was done. Two natives were Killed. One hundred and eighty shocks were experienced in twenty four hours. The population was terrorized and fled from the buildings and encamped out doors.
 The Austin will return to Guam with lumber and other materials for the re construction of the government. build. ings.
 The insular government has appro priated $50OO0 to fight cholera in the province of Iloilo, Panay. Although the number of cholera cases in this province has decreased there is still ar average of 1000 cases day.

thev made some more changes. Baker, a. biz sophomore who played on the. basketball team last season, was put at left guard in place of Waller, the freshman from LaWrenceville, and Reed. captain of the '04 class team, took Rafferty's position at right tack le. Baker weighs about 1S6 pounds and Reed IFS. The latter showed up we'll. but the formers playing was not promising and he will undoubtedly be replaced to-day by Butcher, the An dover guard, who appeared in uni form yesterday for the first time in two weeks. He has been laid up with a wrenched knee. Several Of the regulars have not recovered yet from the shaking-up which they got on Saturday and they did not appear in the scrimmage. The back field was composed entirely of substitutes, and Davis and Henry, the ends, also had a rest. The game with the scrubs was short one. The varsity scored once. Most of the afternoons prac- tice though was taken up introducing few new formations.
 Philadelphia, Oct Recognizing the fatal weakness in the defensive playing of the Philadelphia eleven the Quaker coaches yesterday afternoon set to work to discover the cause Of the weakness. 1nattention to the di- rection of the opposing play and slow charging or no charging at all, more often the latter, were found to be the chief causes When the scrub hap pened to put unexpected ginger and ! int saff a1y n1o hp line, the first team forwards gave way. The varsity line and ends were ham, mered yesterday as they have never been before. Mitchell, Dick Torrey and Sloan were-not in the varsity lineup yesterday. Trenton and Weschler played the tackles, and Ben nett was at full back. The changing of Bennett from the line to full back good move, for Bennett is not heavy enough to make q first class guard or tackle.
 New Haven, Oct 7.-In the Yale practice yesterday afternoon Bowman, the Hill school boy, who had just re- covered from an accident which kept him from the field nearly all last week, was thrown to the ground aWkWardly while catching punt and a ligament of his left leg just above the knee was badly strained. He was carried off the field. There was longer signal practice yesterday than heretofore for the varsity as we'll as for the college | eleyens. The scrimmage between the two teams lasted twenty minutes. Then the varsity went up against the l third eleven. The work of the col lege team was capital Shev1in doing well and being directly responsible for the 'varsity's inability to score. Soper in the college back field brought out the cheers of the student body by a 35-yard dash for touchdown. Will. hemi, last years half back, will get into the game to-day for the first time. It will not be a walkover fol him to cinch his old position for he will find himself up against good ri
 vals for half back. Laurie Bliss ..Pa'' Corbin, Morris N. Ely and W
 Q. Hicke assisted at the coaching. II

WITH THE WRESTLERS
A New Wrestler Arrives Tn Water
 bury for Business.


 A new wrestler has arrived in Wa terbury. His name is Barnes and he has had several try outs over in the Brooklyn Athletic club. All those he has been up against say he is clever. strong and aggressive He is built for a wrestler, with massive arms and shoul- ders, correspOndingly large chest, no unnecessary waist deyelopent, and while not in the pink of condition he is said to be able to tackle anything in this city. He is probably another of the mysteries that have landed in this city in the past few seasons. It is said he is after Kelly to throw him twice in one hour. He may be .sMr Barnes of New York; or some one else from the west. It is hard to keep track of those chaps. At any rate the boys say he is the best they have seen on the mat in Brooklyn outside of Gehle from Chicago.
 Leo Pardello is after a match with Prof Hjalmar Lundin and has chaI- lenged to meet the latter at Worcester.
 Harvey Parker writes that when he reaches Buffalo he will agree to meet Walter Willoughby, the upstate mid dleWelght champion. Willoughby has y lately and his packers are anxious to see what he can do against such a well seasoned and clever wrestler.
 Dan Mcleod and Duncan McNIillan came to terms at Worcester yesterday for a fve-style wrestling match for the American championship, held by Me Millan. They will wrestle. one fall each at collar-and- elbow, Cornish, side holds, catch-as-catch-can and Graeco- Roman, the winner of three of the falls ], to win the match
 The project to hold carnival of wrestling among men of repute during the St Louis exposition of 1904 seems to be progressing. The committee on athletics has engaged George Hacken- schmidt, Nouralah and few others to compete. George Bothner, Tom Jen- kins, Harvey Parker and Dan Mcleod have been communicated with and will also figure in matches. Three styles of wrestling will be introduceo, catch as-catch-can, Graeco-R Roman and collar and elbow. The tourney, according to present plans, is to be of weeks dur ation and similar in many respects to that which was held under the aus pices of the National Sporting club of london last June.

Cambridge, Oct 7.-Each of the Harvard football coaches had a small squad about him, and great deal of instruction was meted out. In spite of the score of g to 0 on Saturday, HarvarTs line. did not play a good, aggressive game, and the line coaches drilled the men in playing low and charging The backs, who were slow in starting last week, were drilled in starting with the snap of the ball. A high wind interfered greatly with the punting In a fifteen-minute half the varsity was unable to score on fhe second. They rushed the ball S8 yards, and then the second eleven held them on the 2-yard line. Both eIev- ems fulnbled wretchedly yesterday in six plays in succession as many fum- bles were made Each eleven was also penalized several times for Offside play.
