President at End Of Resources.
WASHINGTON, October 1o.-Close ad-
visers Of the Presidents. who have con-
ferred over the coal situation, said to-
night that in their opinion there was no
further action the administration could
take on its own initiative to bring the
strike to an end. They say the admins
tration is ready to do whatever is possi-
BILE, but it has taken all the action that
is practicable. They scout the idea of a
resort to the antitrust law, and say that
no such step is contemplated, as action
cannot be had under the measure against
the interest involved in the strike.
President Roosevlt had a consultation
with Commissioner-of-La Wright to-
day. The President spoke Of the great
seriousness of the situation, but gave no
intimation of any further steps looking to
a settlement, whicvh he had in mind.
He again enquired about the arbitration

self that it was applicable only to COM
mon carriers. and not to industrial cor
porations. After Mr.. Wright had ex-

Hart Will Meet Kid Mccoy.

Louisville, Ky, Octt. 21.-Marvin
Hart, the Louisville pugilist who fought
kid" Carter in Philadelphia last
Thursday night, has arrived home. While
showing evidences of a bruising, he is
in fairly good shape, and says he will
be in fine condition in short time.
Harris showing against Carter was all
that his most ardent admirers had hoped
for. Hart undoubtedly had the best of
the argument with Carter and the
Philadelphia papers praise the work of
the Louisville boy in unstinted terms.
Hart said:
L can beat Carter. There is no doubt
about that. I will now prepare for my
bout with O'Brien, and am certain that
1 can lick him. 1 will go after KID
Mccoy, and don't believe L will have
any trouble in putting him out. I will
then be ready for all Corners. I am
confident that I am the best man of my
weight in the country and expect to
prove it within eighteen MONTHS

hardest fought and evenly contested
games ever played here, Ottawa defeat
ed the Medics, of, Kansas City, by a
score of u to 0. The teams We're more
evenly matched than at any previous
time they have met Ottawa probably
had the -advanta ge, of little longer train

from their hard game with Kansas Sat

The contest was characterized by de-

Medics, who, in their crippled condition,
were forced to play for wind The
halves were only twenty minutes, but
at the hard luHging play this was

FOOTBALL SURPRISES.
Saturdays Games Developed Some
Astonishing Results.

New York. Oct. 21-That the present
football season is as prolific in surprises
as was predicted. early in the year was
clearly illustrated in. Saturdays gridiron
contests.
Not for many a day has there been SO
astonishing a game as that in which Cor
nell was beaten by the Carlisle Indians
The Ithacans were supposed to have a
team fully as good as that of last season.
and yet, with both elevens practically in
tact from 1901, Cornell presented only what
can be reasonably accounted for an
amazing reversal of form. The Ithacans'
excuse that Carlisle scored on good luck
can hardly be accepted; blocked punts and
fumbles are not due to good luck.
YaleS game against Pennsylvania
Princeton's contest against Washington
and Jefferson and Harvard's match with
West Point developed no new. points in
the. play of these major eleVens. They
showed just about the same faults and
merits as in their contests of the previous
week All together, however. when the
referees whistle blew for time in Satur-
days games, the self confidence OF. the
victorious elevens. for the most part had
baci: largely displaced by a knowledge OF
their faults. And, knowing them, there is
every reason, to believe that the elevens
VIII set out to remedy these errors.
Gridiron followers now await the fiji st
big game of the season, which will take
place between Columbia and. Princeton
Saturday. Indications are that the contest
Will be very closely fought, although the
general sentiment among football en-
thusiasts is that Nassau's eleven will win
easily. Columbia players. however, do not
seem to be worrying over the outcome of
the game.
Harold Weekes' presence on the Morn
ingside eleven is one of the chief reasons
for the optimistic belief of Columbia men.

Princeton and Pennsylvania in 1899, 1900
and 1901 has never failed to score the win

Smiths fine Interference Columbia's ad-
mirers think he can repeat the trick noot

In addition to the Columbia Princeton
contest there will be other important foot
ball games this week. Harvard will play
Brown, which held Yale 100 a week ago.
Yale will play Syracuse for the first time:
Pennsylvania will meet Buckneu, which
beat the Indians, who in turn defeated
Cornell.
The schedule of important gaa,es this
week is:
Wednesday, October 22-Princeton against
