CORNELL GRINNELL
Hotly Contested Game OF Football Be-
tween Congregational and Methodist
Schools Played at Grinnen To-day

Special to Times-Republican
Grinnell, Nov. 15.--The most impor-
tant football game to be played in Iowa
today is that between Grinnell and Cor
nell, to be played on Ward field here
this afternoon. On the result of the
contest depends largely the status of
the teams in the Iowa championship.
While Grinnell has no present claim to
the title, the defeat of Cornell this
afternoon would give her a high stand
ing in the state and put Cornell on a
lower footing in the championship race.
The general expectation at the begin
ming of the game was that Cornell
would win. Judging by the work done
in previous games this fall the expec-
tation is we'll founded. The game be-
gan at 2:3O. There is a large attend
ance and much interest is manifested
ir the game. The lineup:

saw no urgent ne ed for revision. The
lanti-revisionists lave claimed him on
the strength of that statement, and the
evidence OF this is the fact that the
five republican members from Connec-
ticut have agreed to support him for
speaker. =.
AT the same tine. the last winter
statement was net taken seriously by
his revision frierds in congress, but
was regarded rather as an evasion OF
the question, brou ght about by the nee
essities of his position as chairman
of the appropriations committee.
But il he Is t, be speaker of the
fifty-eighth congress by the grace of
western votes, a strong effort will be
made to induce linn to tell where he
stands. especially as to revision, be-
cause if the tariff is not taken up in
the fifty y-eighth congress, it will be
taken up in the f1fty-ninth,
which will be elected in the
presidential year, and Mr. Cam
non will be speaker of that body also
if It is republican. 1t is possible that
he Inay not care to make any publ
announcement for reasons attaching to
his present position. He will want to
get rs many eastern votes as possible
"A stand for revision, for instance, would
drive away the five Connecticut vote;s
already pledged to him and make inn
possible his getting votes In Massa-
chusetts and other parts of New Eng
land as soon as Littlefield is out of the
way
1t is believed here that as the casl
now stands Cannon will divide the
New England vote about evenly with

BAN ON PARLoR MATCH.
Its Use Forbidden in New York After
Ian

New York. Nov. 14.-After the first
of January next carrying parlor matcil-
es or keeping them in ones house is to
be prohibited. Any firm storing, selling
or giving them away will be subject to
arrest.
Parlor matches come under the class
ification of dangerous combustibles, the
use of which has long been a violation
of law as set forth in the city charter,
hut provision of the charter allows
the fire department 10 regulate the use
and sale of combustibles. The depart
ment heretofore has issued permits for
the sale of matches.
Now the fire commissioner has dis
covered that more than 1900 fires We're
caused last year by parlor matches and
has declined to issues permits for the
sale or manufacture of them after

CANNON AND REVISION.
Position on Tariff of Importance in
View of Speakarship Candidacy.

Washington, Nov. 14.-Representa-
tive Joseph Cannon in his quest of the
speakership will run up against good
deal of strong revision sentiment in
the western states from which he must
secure most of his strength If he is
successful. Already there are indica-
iions that the western members Of the
fifty-eighth congress do not purpose
to vote for him blindly. Western re-
publican sentiment is so strongly for
tariff revision that the members of
congress from that section will be COM
PEELED to pay some attention to it,
Mr. Cannon's statement in Chicago
on Wednesday, that he does not care
TO make any announcement of his po-
sition regarding the tariff, the trusts
and other public questions, IL it is his
last word on that subject, will not be
favorable to his candidacy in states like
Minnesota. the Dakotas, Nebraska
Iowa or Wisconsin. In congress he
has never gone on record as to the
trusts, because that question has not
been up in recent years.
AS TO the tariff, he is on record in a
statement made last winter, that he

Colorado Students Strike.

Boulder. Col, Nov. 15.-Five hundred
students of the Unive=.t of Colorado
are on a strike. They have revolted over
hOi0Eh.n anaicshrd shr shr shr sh shr
lessons during the quarto centennial
celebration now in progress. The stu
dents held class meetings and voted
unanimously not to attend classes dur
ing the celebration. Girls who attend
are threatened with ostracisrn, and boys
have been told that they will be ducked
IN the lake. Today not a boy or a girl
reported at classes. There Is some talk
of President Baker taking drastic
measures with the leaders as ar ex-
ample of discipline. However, as all
the students are involved, 1t is general
ly believed that no action will be taken.

Lineman Falls 1875 Feet.

Council Bluffs, Nov. 14.--James e.
Adams, an ELECTRICIAN in the employ of
the local lighting company, had fall
that came near costing him his life. He
was making the rounds of the 150-foot
light towers trimming the lights when
the accident occurred. He had ascend
ed one of the towers in the carriage for
a distance of about 1S5 feet when the
cable broke and he and the carriage
started for the ground. With rare pres
ence of mind he threw his arms around
two stay cables on either side OF him
and thus was able in measure to make
his descent less rapid. Hundreds of
persons saw the man falling and when
he struck the platform at the bottom of
the tower and lay still everyone thought
he was dead. He soon regained con-
sciousness, and, beyond bruises. sores
and burns on either arm from the fric-
tion on the stay cables, is all right.

Interesting Question as to Auditors
Appointees.
Des Moines, Nov. 14.-One of the in
teresting questions of state house poll
tics Just now is who will be appointed
by B. F. Carroll, the auditor of state
elect as state bank examiners. The
examiners now are J. z. Whelan of
and Fred A. Bennett of Sioux City. Mr..
Whelan has as his territory the south
ern part of the state and the north
central part. Mr.. Merriam has a num-
Der of counties in the eastern part of
Iowa and Mr.. Bennett has the north
west third of the state.
1t is understood Mr.. Whelan will be
retained by Mr.. Carroll and that ap-t
pointments will be made to succeed Mr..
Bennett and Mr.. Merriam. There are
several applicants for the place of Mr..
Merriam, who is an uncle of the pres
ent auditor of state. Mr.. Bennett does
not seek another term, as he is now in
the banking business in Sioux City and
finds his time fully occupied with his
business. Among the applicants for
IceHtietl ) pace tIe 1uEliiouS. 4ol I1siIii-
son county, and Hoffman, of Webster

tanned as deputy auditor, w. M. Lewis
will be retained as clerk in the insur-
ance department and Bert 7. Gunder-
son will be retained as clerk in the rev.
enue department. The rest of the ap-
pointments are said to be uncertain.
