COLUMBIAN'S ELEVEN.
First Game to Be Played Saturda,
With Western MARYLAND Collece

Several new candidates for the Columbian
University foot ball team will be out to
practice this afternoon az National Base
Ball Park. The coaches expect the men to
get out about o'clock, in order to put in
two hours of hard wook. The linemen are
under the supervision of Coach Alexander,
formerly full back for Cornell, and Coach
Houston is devoting his attention especially
to the candidates for position back OF the
line. lot of promising material is on
hand, and it is believed that by enthu-
siasm and energy the handicap of develop
ing a team from players who had never
played together before will be counterbal-
anced in large measure
The practice has been fast and snappy
and the coaches feel assured of placing a
good aggregation in the field for the first
game of the season. which will be played at
$3.50 o'clock Saturday afternoon with the
Western Maryland College eleven from
Westminster, Md, at Y. M. c.. A. Park
nth and B streets northwest. The grounds
have been put in good condition, and ar
engagements have been made for accommo-
dating a large gathering. AS Western
Maryland is reported to be strong, good
game is expected.

DIR. STUART DISMISSED
RETIRED FROM EMERGENCY HOS
PITAL FOR STRIKING PATIENT.
DR.. Johnson, the Executive Officer
Takes Action Regretfully-Dr.
Stuart's Explanation.

DR.. D. T. Stuart, resident physician at
| the Emergency Hospital, dismissed last
night by Dr. H. l.. +. johnson, executive
officer of the institution. The reason for
the dismissal was that DIR. Stuart struck a
patient thereby violating a rule of the in
stitution. The patient had attempted sui
| eide and was taken to the hospital for
| trea tment Dr. Stuart admitted the charge
! against him when questioned by DR.. john
| son, but said he considered the circum-
stances as justifying his act.
Shortly after midnight Tuesday evening
DR.. Stuart was notified that man had at
tempted suicide on 18th street near Penn
sylvania avenue northwest. DR.. Stuart
| went with the ambulance to the place and
the man was taken to the hospital. In de-
scribing the incident the physician said that
the patient was a large man, weighing
nearly HG0 pounds. He was placed on the
operating table, and in the erdeavor to put
the gag in his mouth the man caught DR..
Stuart's finger between his teeth and bit it.
The pain was intense" said the physi-
clan. Il tried to extricate my finger with
out using force, but the man kept his
mouth tightly closed. l finally struck him
lightly with my left fist on the side Of the
face. l struck him to make him open his
mouth. not because ] was angry. The de-
sired result was attained and the man re-
covered l do not consider my action was
brutal under the circumstances, and / am
sure the patient does not consider 1t so
now
DR.. Stuart Notified.
The patient left the hospital about Gam
and declined to give his name. He was
said to be a stranger in the city. About
o'clock last evening DR.. Stuart was in
formed that his term of service would cease
this morning.
Dr. johnson remarked that while it
might have been necessary to use gorous
me ans, he did not think there was any rea-
sen why the physician should have struck
the patient. He expire ssed regret because
he was complied to relieve TIE physician
fr5m service, but said it was his duty t.
DO So
DR.. Stuart has been resident physician at
the Emergency Hospital for the last four
teen months. He served o2e regular term
of year, and at tle request of the tx5cu-
tive committee watch has control of the
hospital he continued in the post on. Two
weeks ago DR.. Stuart rendered his resigna-
ton. to take effect October l. He did this
b, cause he desired to accept position in

in China twenty-four years ago. His father

PEARY WILL NOT TRY AGAIN.
Arctic Explorer Will Report to the
Navy Department in a Few DAYS.

Lieut.. r. E. Peary, the arctic explorer,
arrived at Portland, Me- yesterday. In an
interview he said:
On no account shall I make an effort
to return to the north. l have done all
that could be done with the facilities at
my command, and shall now resume my
duties in the navy, reporting to the de-
partment at Washington in a few days.
The pole can be reached. 1t is a ques-
ton of money and OF the explorers outfit.
Gould have put my ship as far north as
intended, and as l could have done had
she been equal 70 the requirements, l could
have made the pole
Possibly had i covered the $50 miles be-
tween where l turned back and the pole, 1
might have added nothing to our informa-
ton as to extreme polar conditions We
can very well conjecture conditions sur
rounding the pole. am Confident it is
in the ocean-that is. nd land is there.
Money will do it-hnoney.s5in the right
hands. No, not millions, either; 100000
would do 1t. For this amount could keep
a party in the north ten years and follow
my original plan for marching by stages on
the pole. A good ship plenty of time, and
sufficient money will de- It'll
Peary's foot, which was frozen, is doing
well and he believes heI may be able to do
without an operation. -.

GREAT BEEF MERGER OFF.
Presidents Attitude Said to Have Kill
ed the Scheme.


A dispatch from Chicago yesterday says:
1t was given out tonight that final meet
ing of the heads of the packing firms
known as The Big Four had been held, at
which it was agreed to end Immediately all
negotiations toward a combination.
This was followed directly by an order
issued from the office of Swift & Co, that
the firms employees should at once discon-
tinue the inventory of property and stock,
which had been started to tabu!ate a report
of the financial condition of the company. to
be used basis for the division of shares
in the combine
Until President Roosevelt started through
New England on speech making tour, re-
ports from the frequent meetings of the
packers indicated that everything was going
along In the most harmonious manner.
Swift & Co, Armour & Co, the Cudahy
Packing Company and Nelson Morris & Co.
were apparently ready to make important
concessions, and finally it was declared,
from an authoritative source, that
Schwartzschild & Sulzberger, who had per-
sistently refused to consider a combination
under any circumstances, had agreed to
come in.
The declarations made by the President
at Wheeling, Cincinnati and other cities,
coupled with the prominence given, not by
him, but by others to the subject of tariff
revision as a means of restraining trusts,
are believed to have indicated to the pack
ers that the right time had not come to
form their gigantic corporation to domi-
nate the sale of meat all over the world
With an injunction restraining them from
entering into any agreement to form COM
bination hanging over their heads, and pub
lie opinion aroused over the high prices of
meat since last winter, it was pointed out
that Congress would need only little pres
sure during the fall elections to bring about
the abolition of the tariff on live stock and
throw open the markets of the country to
herds OF Canada, Mexico and South Amer
