Southern Support Thru Opposing the
Panama Canal Treaty.
Washington. Dec. 24.-Southern con-
gressmen are overwhelmed with letters
and kilograms from their constituents
urging favorable. action on the canal
treaty. The entire south seems to be
more deeply moved than upon any politi-
cal subject of recent years. Many per-
sons were at a loss to understand how
Senator German could so misjudge the
temper Of the country as to run amucl
against the Panama canal treaty
German seems to have lost his politi-
cal cunning" said one of the republican
leaders in the senate to-day. Time was
when we looked upon German as an astute
politician able to gage publis senti-
ment and keep ahead of it. But he has
dropped down to the place of mere par
tizan. looking for small and immediate
partizan advantage, without reckoning as
to the outcome
1t. is generally conceded that Senator
German will be unable to prevent ratifica-
ton. His opposition is being severely CEN
sured in the south and politicians. say Mr..
Germans mistake may result in his losing
the southern delegation to the democratic
national convention when he becomes
candidate for the nomination.

New York Sun Special Service.

Madison, Wis, Dec. 24.-Pugilism
at the University Of Wisconsin. was
not stamped out by the faculty after
the sanguinary Broad-Edge contest in
the Wisconsin gymnasium on the first
Sunday morning of the football sea-
son. Andrew M. O'Dea, member Of
the Wisconsin faculty, has organized
a class in boxing, which will hold
regular meetings after the holiday
recess.
The class will be a large one, and
the trials for the university glove su-
premacy are expected to be exceed
ingly interesting and vigorous. The
meetings will be held in the gym
nasium, under the personal super
vision Of O'Dea, twice each week
The requirements for admission to
the class are few, all the requisites
to membership being the possession
Of the necessary boxing gloves. The
faculty, in order to stimulate the in
terest Of students in the f1stic art, has
ruled that: practice twice a week in
the pugilistic classes of O'Dea shall
be accepted as the equivalent of the
regularly required gymnastic training
under DR.. J. c. Elsom. ~

Looking for Friends.
When the relief train reached here
thousands of people were at the sta
ton, looking for friends and relatives,
as large number of Connellsville peo-
pie had gone to Pittsburg for Christ
mas shopping and were expected home
on the limited. Every available cab
and carriage had been held in waiting
to convey the injured to the hospitals.
Citizens formed themselves into re-
lief corps and gave assistance in the
removal of the wounded from the
train
In addition to the eleven who have
died since being taken from the wreck
many others are certain to be added to
the number of victims. All who in
hailed the steam are suffering intense
ly.
Louis Helgoth. the conductor of the
train, was in the second day coach
when the crash came and no one
knows just what happened to him un-
til afterwards. D. w. Hills, porter on
one of the sleepers, said that as soon
as he could get off his car he went for
ward and heard someone shouting
from the top of the bank. He recog-
nized Helgoth's voice. The conductor
was In terrible agony, but shouted at
the top Of his voice:
Conductor Kept His Wits.
For Gods sake, / am scalded to
death, but some one of you get a red
lamp and flag 40 or she will be onlus.''
Even In the mental suffering of
every one about the scene, the bravery
and thoughtfulness of the dying con-
ductor was sufficient to bring words
of praise and commendation.
Porter Hills, telling of his expert
ence, said:
Il went to the smoking car and
began to get the injured out The
car was the most awful scene ] ever
witnessed. Men We're jammed into
all sorts of shapes. They were on top
of each other and buried under
heaps OF dirt and seat cushions When
tried to lift one man out l found
others so tightly wedged into the same
place that several had to be aided
at one time. / got seven men out
before I stopped there. The dead
were badly bruised and many of the
scalded were in such a fearful condi-
ton that they would better be dead
Some of them had lost their eyes en-
tirely. The baggage and clothing Of
the passengers were scattered all over
the ground. Some Of it was soaked
with blood while in the piles Of it
could be seen piles Of toys, telling

Cause of Wreck.
When asked if there would be any
investigation on the part of the rail-
road officials, Superintendent D. w.

tigation is necessary to explain the
affair. 1t is all too apparent" Point

under the dining coach, he said:

Maintenance of High Standards.

That all standards tend to become
lower unless special care is taken to
maintain them is recognized fact
This is as true of the standard of the
physical development of the human
race as of other things. When we
consider that the progress made in
other lines, as rapid transportation,
ETC., tends to endanger life and limb
and wear out mental power, we realize
the necessity of watching the physi-
cal development Of the race most
closely. This development may be
greatly improved by a regular and
systematic use of a good tonic like
golden grain belt beer, as experience
is proving. If you are not already
using it, don't delay longer.

DON'T WANT MCCARTHY
COACH CURTIS OF WISCONSIN
OBJECTS TO RE-ENGAGEMENT
OF HIS OLD ASSISTANT.

!, Young Arthur H. Curtis, head coach
of the University of Wisconsin foot
ball team, has indicated to the ath-
letic authorities that he will not have
Charles Mccarthy, the former Brown
university football star, as assistant
coach at Madison again next fall. This
settles the question unless the faculty
posed toward Mccarthy, insists upon
re-electing the eastern man.
Captain Abbott, who was a candi-
date for the assistant job, is now in
favor Of Mr.. Mccarthy. More uni.
versity politics have been practiced
in this matter than ever before in
the matter Of electing athletic in
structors.
Curtis was out of harmony with the
assistant last season and it is whis-
pered, blames the suggestion of the
eastern man for many Of the disas-
ters of the season.
Mike Murphy, the trainer of the
Yale football and track team, has
set many Yale men >a-thinking in re-
gard to football. Murphy says that
he does not believe that a boy should
be allowed to participate in inter-
scholastic football until he is over 16
years of age.
Murphy gives as his reason his OBJ
servation that early football is very
likely to result in strains, from which
a boy does not recover easily Or
quickly. Murphy says that the joints,
and especially the knees, have to bear
the brunt of football. He claims that
in his long experience the men who
receive the injuries are most often
boys who begin to play football too
young and injure their joints.
''Walter Eckersall has been much
abused man."
These were the words of Coach
Yost of Michigan as he mused out
loud over the happenings of the past
football season. Coach Yost was in
Chicago with the Michigan glee club,
and he had been asked if he thought
the criticisms of Eckersall's work in
the Chicago Michigan game were
just.
''Eckersall played a better game
than any man on the Chicago team
by far, - continued the Michigan
coach. Last year we made Chica-
go's man on fullback defense look like
a novice. This year we made Ecker
sail, playing fullback defense, look
like a great football player
do you think Eckersall ran the
Chicago team poOrly?'
No. You can't run broken-down
wagon any other way than poorly
can you? Lee Maxwell did no better
when he went in. Chicago made one
long gain after Maxwell took charge,
but that was made possible because
Graver, thought they were going to
kick, and went back. The Chicago
team did not play any better in the
second half than in the first Its work
seemed more effective because our
men were tired and had the game
won anyway.
"There was nothing to choose be-
tween the three center men on the
two teams. There was not the differ
ence of an inch between the playing
Of any Of them. Hill, Chicago's
freshman. impressed me as being a
man of first quality, and with expert
ence he will make great lineman
without a doubt. He was up against
the best man we had in the center of
our line in Schultz, but he held him
safe.'
