FOOTBALL PRACTICE.
Scrubs Putting Up Good A.sicle-Game
To-day.

At the Yale field yesterday the var
sity football team was put through q
hard fifteen-minute lineup practice
against the scrub. All the regulars
were in the line, but they had no easy
time with the scrubs. Each day it is
becoming more apparent that among
the scrubs some excellent material is
developing. Yesterday they held the
varsity line in fine shape and were only
scored upon once. The practice was
fast and furious, despite the fact that
the team meets the Springfield Train
ing school eleven to-day at the field.
Springfield beat Trinity last year 43 to 0
and is said to have an equally strong
eleven this year.
/ All of the big four elevens will face
strong teams and the outcome will be
closely watched. The games to be play
ed are:
At Cambridge Harvard VS.. Amherst.
At Providence-BroWn vs. Princeton.
At Philadelphia. of p VS.. Penn
State college.
At New York-C Columbia VS.. Williams.
AT Ithaca-C Cornell VS.. Colgate.
The Yale freshmen will have their
first game of the season to-day at
Easthampton, Mass, with Williston
academy.

CHICAGO BAND MUDDLE.

CHARGED TO Misrepresentation.

Charged TO Misrepresentation.
Chicago, Oct. 9.-Oficials of the Chi
cago Federation Of Musicians declare
that the services of the Marine band
of Washington, d. c.. at the Chicago
centennial celebration and the conse-
quent boycott by union musicians re-
sulting in the. discharge Of members Of
the various bands Of the Illinois Ma
tional guards We're secured through a
Misrepresentation The federation de-
clares that the course of two colonels
of the National guard in recommending
the discharge Of the regimental band
members is unjust, the centennial ar
rangements committee, instead of the
musicians, bringing censure.
The federation officials assert that
when they found that the Marine band
was to play at the Auditorium meeting
they wrote Secretary Moody of the navy
department and asked why the govern
ment permitted the band to leave WASH
ington. In reply the secretary stated
that the centennial committee notified
| him that the members of the Marine
band were to be guests Of the city Of
| Chicago and We're not to receive COM
pensation and that had he known the
Marine band was to compete with civ
ilian musicians he would not have al
lowed the band to go west. This, re-
I ply from Secretary Moody, the fedora
tion officials believe will bring about
| the reinstatement os the discharged
members of the regimental bands.

INCENDIARY FIR ES CRAzED HIM.
cephas Roberts, an Aged Winsted
Farmer, sadly Stricken.

Winsted, Oct. ,9.--Loss of money and
property by reason of incendiary fires
is believed to have mentally unbalanc-
ed the mind of Cephas Roberts, an aged
and eccentric citizen of Winsted. Last
Wednesday Mrs. Roberts left her home
under police protection. she having
claimed that her husband would kill
her and himself also.
About three years ago Roberts gain
ed considerable notoriety by advertis-
ing in local paper for a thief to oceu-
py one of his farms. While still re-
ceiving communications from would-be
tenants from all parts of the country,
several buildings owned by Mr.. Roberts
were destroyed by fires, all of which
were supposed to have been of incen-
diary origin. At that time Roberts
was said to be worth about $4,000, but
as none of his property was insured his
loss was heavy and this is believed to
have preyed on his mind until it finally
unbalanced it.
The court to-day appointed physi-
clans to examine Roberts to determine
whether or not he should be committed
to the insane asylum at Middletown.

TAKING HOLD OF COUNTRY.
Evidence That Chamberlain IL MAKING
Great Impression. &s.#


London, Oct. 10.-The mixed reeep-
ton given to Mr.. Ritchie at Croydon
is regarded as an indication that Mr..
Chamberlain's scheme is taking hold
of the country, and is fiercely dividing
the unionist party. Incidentally Mr..
Ritchie revealed that he was solely
responsible for the abolition of the shil-
ling duty on wheat. He said that Mr..
Chamberlain proposed to retain the
duty and give the colonies preference
but the speaker, believing that 1t was
only the beginning of a larger scheme
of protection, threatened to resign if
the duty was not forthwith abolished.
Mr.. Ritchie strongly attacked the
Chamberlain policy and declared that
it would raise the cost of everything.
He aroused the greatest opposition
from his audience and also from the
prot Chamberlain journals this morning
by his reference to the United States
He said:
"The country must guard against
giving the United States any cause for
resentment against this country, which
would be the case if their neighbors,
the Canadians, were allowed to send
their wheat into England at two or
three shillings a quarter less than
America could. America would certain
ly punish Canada"
This statement was met with cries of
mo" ''They exclude US now" and
shouts of ''The Mckinley tariff" "Rub-
bish" and Nonsense. The general
disturbance was such that Mr. Ritchie
was unable to continue until the chair
man had appealed for order.

PATRICK MAY YET ESCAPE
AN AMAZING TANGLE OF LEGAL
TEt HNI0ALITIES.
Only discovered Yesterday and May Re-
suit In she Convicted Murderer OF
millionaire Rice Not Going 70 tho
chair--A Remarkable Condition or
Legal Warfare.
Legal Warfare.

Albany, ~. Y, Oct. 9.-The postpone
ment to-day until Monday of argument
in the Rice will case. in connection
with which Albert T. Patrick is await
| ing death in Sing Sing prison for the
murder of William M. Rice, led to the
discovery of remarkable chain Of cir
lcumstances by which Patrick may es-
cape the electric chair, not through a
reversal, by the court of appeals of his
conviction and death sentence. but
through an arnazinS tangle Of legal
| technicalities. Nearly eighteen months
have passed since the week in which
he was to have died for the murder of
millionaire William M Rice, his exc
cution beins STAYED ostensibly by an
appeal to the court of appeals, but the
records OF the court show no such APP
| peal in existence. The legal time for
the filing of such appeals elapsed six
months ago and legal problem which
may prove exceedingly troublesome lies
| behind the question as to how the death
sentence may again be imposed upon
/ him.
Patrick was convicted in March, 1902,
Of being the principal in the death of
| William M. Rice and April Z, 1902, was
sentenced in the court Of general ses-
sions at New York to die at Sing Sing
the week beginning May 5. Notice OF
appeal was filed at once. s
] This acted temporarily as a stay of
4 execution. Early in October a motion
/ was made in the corut of appeals for
an extension o. time in which to pre-
pare the appeal, and the court was cali
ed upon to decide whether to Patrick S
case applied to the then new chapter
1853 of the laws. which had gone into
effect on September /. and which linn
| ited to six months the time to elapse
1 between the filing Of an appeal and ar
gument thereupon. John G. Tomlinson,
| Patrick's attorney. with the written
| consent of the district attorney asked
for an extension OF time until January
| Is with the privilege Of asking fur
| ther extension.
| On October IS. a year ago, the court
/ handed down an order denying the mo-
tion, on the ground that in any case the
new six months law, giving them until
March /, afforded ample time.
| With this order of the court, the rec
ords stop. No appeal has been filed, no
argument has been had and the time
specified passed by six months ago. The
court of appeals has no jurisdiction to
fix a new date for Patrick's execution
and apparently the notice Of an appeal
has ceased to be operative as stay of
execution. But the week fixed for
Patrick's death passed by about eigh-
teen months ago. Another aspect of
| this remarkable case will come before
the court Of appeals next week. when
| will be argued the case in which is pre-
sented the extraordinary spectacle of
Patrick fighting in the last legal ditch
for the major share of the millions of
Mr.. Rice. OF, whose murder he stands
4 convicted.

a few remarks.
Eight thousand people were at the

fully ten thousand more away. Be
cause of the muddy track no horse
races were attempted. The automobile
race has been called off because Of the
inability of out-of-toWn automobilists

made the roads SO bad that it is almost
impossible to drive a machine here.

Looks Into the Future.

3 Looks Into the Future.
Chicago, Oct. 8. Chicago day was cell
ebrated tonight with banduets by the
Marquette and Lakeside clubs at which
prominent speakers from various parts
os the country were present. At the
Marquette club the principal speakers
were Frank S. Black, a former governor
of New York: Governor Winfield T..
Durbin of Indiana, Governor Samuel R.
Van SAINT of Minnesota, and Judge Pet
er s. Grosscup of the United States cir
cult court. Governor Van SAINT Of Min
nesota said in part:
Thousands of American farmers are
making homes in Canada, filled with
love for our republican form of govern
ment. Conversely, multitudes of Cana
dians are achieving comfort and affl-
ence in the border states. The inter-.
change of commodities correspond
ingly multiplies. The necessity for free
commercial intercourse becomes more
tand more imperative. This subjest is
indeed one of great moment. Canadians
and Americans are every day becoming
more intimate in manifold ways. The
development of that International spirit
is the crowning evidence Of the advance
of civilization. Every national policy
and every public and private act should
have appropriate regard for the increase
of the cordiality of the relations and
mutual good will between the United
States and the Dominion. Who knows
but the inauguration of so wise policy
together with the peaceful invasion of
Canada by the American farmer. may
not bring about consummation de-
voutly to. be wished. with universal
amity and the Stars and Stripes float
ing over all lands from the gulf of Mex
ico to the Arctic circle?"
