CONTROL U. 8. STEEL.
Rockefeller, Gould and Hill, with
Others.

Pittsburg.-The Post prints a story
to the effect that combination form
ed by John d. Rockefeller, George
Gould, J. ]. Hill and other capitalists
has practically secured control Of the
United States Steel corporation; that
the acquiring Of the New York Gen.
trail and its feeders by the Rockefel-
ler-Gould interests is in furtherance
of a plan to secure control Of all rail-
roads from the west to the seaboard,
including the Baltimore & Ohio and
eventually the Pennsylvania.
The scheme, it is claimed, is a plain
business proposition, in which the syn
dictate has undertaken to secure con-
troll of the greatest tonnage producer
in the world-the United States Steel
corporation-and provide means for
its transportation as well as for the
immense tonnage made possible by the
advent of the Wabash into the Pitts
burg coal and coke production district.

BIG FOOT BALL GAME.
Princeton Beat YaIe-Harvard Lost
co Dartmouth.

New Haven, Conn.-Yale went down
to defeat before the men of Princeton
Saturday in the annual football game
on the Yale field, by score of II to
6. The contest, which was one of the
most spectacular ever witnessed on
Yale's gridiron, was stubbornly fought
throughout. Until the last five min
utes of play, when Dewitt, the Prince
ton captain kicked a marvellous goal
from placement and broke the tie
score Of to 6, the result was in doubt.
Yale made one touchdown, from which
goal was kicked. Princeton equaled
Yale's record, and added a goal from
placement. At the end of the first
half the score was tied and close OBJ
servers looked for Yale victory, but
the New Haven men were unable to
get the pigskin over the line again,
while Dewitt's kicking ability gave to
his team victory.
While Princeton deserved to win,
Yale deserved to lose, for Princeton's
scores were practically the direct re-
suits of Yale's fumbling. Yale's small
score, moreover, was due to fumbling
equally as fatal.
Philadelphia.-In a game marked
by fumbles and penalties, the Carlisle
Indians defeated the. University of
Pennsylvania by the score of 16 to 6.
Cambridge.-A defeat more pitiful
than any recorded by the friends of
Harvard and one in which there was
not a feature to give comfort to the
undergraduates Of the university, was
administered to the Harvard eleven
by Dartmouth Saturday afternoon. The
final score was IL to in favor of the
New Hampshire college team. Har-
ward displayed great weakness.
