st. Johns Team Defeated in Drench.
ing Rain and Sea of Mud.

The foot ball team from Georgetown Uni
versity easily demonstrated its superiority
over the eleven from st. Johns College, An
napolis, in the contest on the local field
Saturday afternoon. The game was played
In drenching rain, and the gridiron was
consequently exceedingly wet and muddy,
a circumstance which made fumbles and
misplays an easy matter. Notwithstanding
the disagreeable condition OF the weather
many foot ball enthusiasts stood along the
side lines and enjoyed the game while they
were being soaked to the skin by the down
pour. The Georgetown boys were heavier
than their opponents, and at no time was
their goal In danger from the attacks Of the
visitors. The light backs from st. Johns
seemed unable to make any Roadway
against their opponents when In possession
OF the BAH, and they were obliged to kick
on the third down on several occasions. On
the other hand, the representatives Of the
blue and gray experienced but little diff
Guilty in making the required distance in
nearly every play, either by line bucks or
end runs. The visiting team played plucki-
ly, but the superior weight Of its oppo-
nents could not be overcome, and at the end
of the second half the score stood IS to 0
In favor Of Georgetown.
st. Johns kicked off in the first half and
after five minutes play was obliged
to make safety in order to prevent a
touchdown. After the kick-out the blue
various plays to St. Johns ten-yard line
when Morgan was pushed over for the first
touchdown. ST. Johns again put the ball In
play and before the twenty minutes allowed
for the first half were consumed Hart went
through right tackle across the visitors
goal line for another point.
In the second half Georgetown kicked of
to the visitors fifteen-yard- line but after
several unsuccessful attempts to advance
the ball the boys from st. John were obliged
to punt. From that time on GEORGETOWN
steadily advanced the pigskin, and Kelley
made ten-yard run through right tackle
for the third touchdown, Morgan kicking
goal. st. Johns started the ball. and when
time was called the leather was dangerously
near the visitors goal
Reiiey made several twenty-five and thir-
ty-yard runs at intervals during the game
and was very much In evidence while he
played. Hart. Russell and Seitz also were
successful ground gamers and seldom
failed to negotiate the required distance
Morgan made a spirited center buck in the
early part Of the second half that took the
visitors by surprise and netted the blue and
gray twelve yards. Both Morgan and Nor
ris, for Georgetown, did some fine punting
and Carey showed up in good form and
were mixed up in all the plays. Smith and
Cooper did some fine tackling and were
effective in cutting off several long runs
Devries made some long punts and other
wise played good game.
1t Is the opinion OF local foot balltsts that
Georgetown has a stronger team this year
than ever before. The work Of the substi-
tutes who were put in at the latter part Of
Saturdays game Is evidence of the truth
of the claim. The lineup follows:

SUPPORTERS OF SAMPSON
May Make More Trouble For
 Schley.

Washington Special
 Rear Admiral Schley may race another naval court for his alleged iet- ter to George E. Graham, author o1 'Schley and Santiago in which Admiral Sampson is by inference criticised for not having been present when the Spanish fleet was destroyed. The matter was brought to Secretary Longs attention to- day, and he will give 1t consideration.
 He would not say this afternoon whether or not the offense of the Ad- miral ,on It's face, constituted subject of court martial or reprimand, but the opinion here is that if Sampson's sup porters can arrange things. Schley will be put to all the annoyance possible for what is considered, even by his friends, an injudicious act.
 "The Secretary discussed the, incident informally with Judge Advocate General Lemly, but no definite line of action was determined upon.
 Admiral Schley's letter to Mir. Gra- ham was dated November 1A. 1901. and was written from the Arlington Hotel, this city. The sessions of the court of inquiry had then been concluded several days, but this, according to the Navy Departments authorities, does not effect the case. Secretary Long's special order that naval officers should not discuss the Sampson -Schley controversy for publica- ton is held to have then been In enect.
