Washington, October 31.-The President today issued his annual Thanksgiving proclamation in the following terms: By the President of the United States of America
 A proclamation:
 The season is at hand when, accord ing to the custom of our people, 1t falls on the President to appoint a day of praise and thanksgiving to God.
 During the last year the Lord has dealt bountifully with us, giving us peace at home and abroad and the chance for our citizens to work for their welfare un- hindered by war, famine or plague. It be- hooves us not only to rejoice greatly be- cause of what has been given us, but to accept it with a solemn sense of respon- siblity, realizing that under heaven 1t rests with us ourselves to show that we are worthy to use alright what has been thus been entrusted to our care. In no other place, and at no other time has the experiment of government of the people by the people, and for the people been tried on so vast a scale as here in our country in the opening years of the twen- tieth century Failure would not only be a dreadful thing for us, but dreadful thing for all mankind. because it would mean loss of hope for all who be- lieve in the power and the righteousness of liberty.

followers of the red and white of Indiana university at Bloomington. Banners waved. college yells were being hurled from the windows and streamers were displayed from the windows of the car bearing the university football team.
 As the happy students poured from the train, news of the tragedy to the black and gold of Purdue was received. Instantly all was sadness and sympathy. The throng melted into sorrowing groups that separated to search for the morgue and hospitals for friends or took cars for the scene of the wreck to give any possible aid.
 No Colors Are Displayed.
 All day the streets have been filled with silently moving bands of students. But no color were displayed. They were pinned beneath coats or quietly put away. No music sounded from the bands that came to help celebrate. This evening bore them back, leaving behind the dead and injured.
 Surgeons are still working over the in- jured. It Is believed the death list will be swelled to twenty.
 President Stone of Purdue has estab- lished headquarters here and is answer ing hundreds of anxious inquiries from all parts of the country. The work of getting the home addresses of the in- jured Is difficult, as the only record is the university register at Lafayette
 After the announcement of the aban- donment of the game today. 1t was sug- gested that the money collected on ad- vance sale be given to families of the in- jured who happen to be in need. Gov ernor Durbin started a subscription. The governor and other state officials hur- ried to the wreck this morning and have been busy all day assisting in the relief. President Bryan of Indiana university has also been helping. Purdue officials announced this afternoon that the uni- versity would engage in no games this year.
 Superintendent VanWyck of the Big Four said this evening he had no time to investigate, as his time had been de- voted to helping the injured. Both en- gineers say they had the right of track and knew nothing of the other train. The coal cut was backing northward to a company switch
 c. A. Paquette, superintendent of the Chicago division of the Big Four railroad and General Superintendent vanWyck of the company have been busy all day help ing care for the injured. Mir. VanWyck said tonight:

INDIAN HIDES BALL
 BENEATH HIS JERSEY
Carlisle Plays Harvard to Standstil After One of the Most Unique
 Tricks Ever Worked.

Cambridge, Mass, October 31.-In an intensely exciting and sensational foot ball game, Harvard defeated the Car lisle Indians today, l2 to Il.
 The closeness of the score was made possible by one of the most unique tricks tried on a football field for many years. Dillon at the start of the second half received the Harvard kickoff on his five yard line, and then hiding the ball un- der his jersey behind his back, ran the length of the field empty handed for q touchdown. There is apparently no rule covering this trick, so the play stood.
 Vale 25. Columbia 0.
 New York, October 31.-With the score nothing to nothing at the end of the first half, Columbia's eleven was crush ed beneath the irresistible attack of Yale at the Polo grounds this afternoon, and was defeated by a score of 25 to o. Endurance was the quality that won Tor Yale. Her men from start to finish showed no let up in the magnificent at tack that sent Columbia badly beaten team off the field. In the first half Co., lumba held Yale to no score. That ef- fort taxed all her power and when the second half opened she was already beat en for lack of strength Time after time the Columbia players were unable to rise after a play and very often they were laid out with injuries.
 Princeton A, Cornell 0.
 Princeton, N. J., October 3l.-Princeton defeated Cornell today A to O. Princeton gained at will through the center of the line and seldom failed to work end runs for substantial gains. Cornell was help less when she had the ball, and succeeded in retaining it only until the second down. During the first of the game, Cornell gained her downs but five times, while Princeton was held for downs twice in the second half the task was still easy for Princeton.

 Engineer w. H. Schumacher found directly
 in front of him the freight engine and coal cars moving slowly from switch lead- ing to a gravel pit. He reversed his en- zine and jumped.
 The crash hurled the passenger engine and three front coaches against the steel freight cars loaded with coal that plough ed their way through and buried under a pile of wreckage weighing many tons fully sixty human beings. The first car in which were the players
 was completely demolished. The second

 College President Aboard. President Stone of the university, with
 his family was in the fifth coach and was not injured. Immediately after the shock, the passengers, men and women, began the frantic work of tearing away
 the wreckage and pulling out dead and dying classmates and fraternity broth CTS. The young women dressed in bright
 colors for the holiday, performed heroic work. Though the bodies were in sev- eral instances horribly mangled one com pletey and one partially beheaded, they took up on their laps the heads of the dying and injured, and soothed their sufferings as best they could until the surgeons arrived. Their blood-stained and grimy garments were gloomy wit nesses of their heroism. A general alarm was sent out, and phy- sicians came from every direction to the scene, distance of three miles. They came in every kind of vehicle, private and public, and even delivery wagons were sent to carry away the dead and injured While these were being carried | to the morgues and hospitals. the work 1 of tearing away the wreck and rescung those pinned beneath went on, big muscu- | lar students wept aloud as they stood over the bodies of their dead friends and fellow workers. or gazed helplessly upon the remains of their college mates To add to the horror of the scene the | wrecSage caught afire. but the flames were. extinguished by the students after haid fight.

On the first floor, or grinder floor, will be
installed five pairs of 40 inch horizontal
turbines with room for installing two pairs
more when needed. These turbines will be
placed in steel cases, 10 feet in diameter and
about "A feet long, which will be masoned
right in the breast wall. These turbines will
be working under % foot head and each
pair will develop 500 horse power. sFive
pairs of these turbines are coupled directly
and will furnish power to run ten "a inch

Friction Pulley & Machine Works, Sandy
Hill, N. Y. Two pairs of 40 in. turbines will
be coupled directly to two $50 K. w. gen
orators, furnished by the General Electric Co.
Part Of this power will be used to run the
flour mill and elevator of the Grand Rapids
Milling Co., and what electrical power that
is needed by the paper mill and 80 horse

The remainder will be used to furnish power
to other factories
The remaining pairs of wheels installed
at present will be used to run the beater
room line shaft and when more power is
needed on this line shaft, another pair of
wheels will be placed in one of the three
remaining fumes reserved. Preparations are
made so that it can be directly coupled on
the above named pair of wheels, at any time
The other two pairs when installed will be
used either for developing electrical power or
for more grinders.
On the second floor will be installed three

to prove their faith in the city's future by
investing their capital in such a large enter
prise as this paper plant will do much to
inspire the confidence of outside capitalists.
AS soon as the dam is built the members of
the company will do all in their power to
bring other factories to the city. In this they
will certainly be successful, for advantages
can be offered which will readily appeal to
men of business
The company will employ from 200 to
$50 men in the paper mill. This will mean
the expending of over 100000 yearly for
labor. Most of this money will be spent
right here at home. 1t does not take a very
learned economist to figure out the direct
benefit the city will thus derive. The bring
ing of 200 laborers here will also add at least
5000 more to our population this, toe,
a thrifty, desirable class of people.
