DEFENDS. FOOTBALL RULES.
Former Yale star says Eastern Coaches
Arc 10 Blame for Lack OF Open PLAY.

Jumping Jack Jones, Yale star pitt. ~
back in the sos, who Is now a resident VI
New Haven, has joined the army Of foot
ball critics who are discussing the proposed
changes ia the rules. Jones says in part
The rules are all right Let them sta nd.
Don't break up the game but take al
vantage Of the rules They do not pre-
vent an open game. There ia a lack of in
telligence on the part of the Eastern coaches
in applying the rules. Why under the sun
don't the players get more coaching in
passing the ball 10 somebody behind them
and turn what could not be more than a
three yard run in a close formation into
q forty yard dashi The rules do not pro-
hibit it,
Il find fault with the present coaches
in the East because they do not take adj
vantage of the rules IA they stand. The
Western game. as | understand It, il one IN
which the coaches show judgment enough
10 open up the game, make ong passes,
quick passes, plays which are more open,
such a. the " Vest Point game, and the " est
Point team beat Yale. Mhy2 Because
when the West Point team used chances
10 make individual opportunities the West
Pointers did not blindiy hold on to the ball
because they We're told 10 do 20. They ran
out every play with every man, thinking
just what to do at every second OF every
play One man passed 10 another and
played his individual game Come back
TO this style Of play ana give up your need
of giants in the rush line You get some
sinewy, rangy men as the Western coaches
get and boast Of, and yet get a mighty IN

ONE TERM NEW YORK SENATOR'S.
Men Twice Elected 10 the senate EEcep-
lions To the Rule in This state.

New York. singular among the States
in this respect, has usually adhered 10 the
policy Of electing it, United States Senators
for one term only and though there have
been some breaks in the record, they are
few. Other States, and especially States
Of the South and New England. retain in
Office for many years faithful or popular
Senator. and the rule In the West has gem
orally been 10 promote TO the Senate Con-
gresham who has been efficient or popular
as a member OF the House.
In New York a Senator Is chosen usually
for one term only Daniel s Dickinson
one OF the most celebrated New Workers Of
his time. served only one fun term, as did
John A. Dix. his associate, and Hamilton
Fish. his successor. Preston King served
only term. As did Ira Harris. his associate
To King succeeded Edwin D. Morgan the
war Governor Of New York. and TO Morgan
Reuben L. Fenton. Each served one term
only.
To Fenton succeeded Francis Herman,
who served one term and was not reelected.
Warner Miller. William VI. EyaHs, Frank
Hscock. Eibridgc 6. Iapham, David b.
Hill and Fdwar Murphy, Jr had one term,
only, each
The exceptions in recent years 10 the gen
eral rule in New York have been Roscoe
ConklnR and Thomas c Plat Both OF
these Senators resigned from the Senate
on the same day, May a. 1881. Senator
Platt wns reelected after an interval of many
years. Senator Conkling closed his public
service by his resignation
The policy Of New York has been gen
orally, though not uniformly, 10 choose
new Senators to fill each recurring vacancy,
a condition which may, perhaps. be best
accounted for 10y the vicissitudes Of New
York poi'ics. Usually New York Senators

The treatment OF pneumonia is, accord
ing 10 the best authorities, not much helped
by drugs, When the warning symptoms
Of a chill are upon one. much may be done
to cut the attack short by taking 20 bed at
once and resorting 10 the old fashioned
methods to induce perspiration and to
assist the functions Of the body to do their
work properly
Ii Is In preventive measures that our
best hopes Of checking and perhaps ex-
terminating the disease liz. The New
York health Authorities n year ago took
step in the right direction when they
added to the Sanitary Code a clause classi
flying pneumonia as a notiiable disease.
This clause has not been enforced on ac-
count OF lack Of funds.
The greatest safeguard against pneu-
monia IS TO keep the body in a healthy state
by living under the best sanitary conditions
possible. The avoidance OF overheated
rooms in which the air has not a suficency
of moisture is precautionary measure
which is OF more Importance than is gener-
ally believed
The systematic inquiry into pneumonia
from all standpoints which is at the present
time being undertaken by the New York
Pneumonia Commi ssion should go far to-
ward solving many Of the unknown features
OF the disease. At any rate, the findings
OF the commission will surely increase our
knowledge Of the malady and will doubt
less suggest means of curling It's spread
The high standing Of the members Of the
commission is a guarantee that the matter
will be investigated scientifically and

non ARMSTRONG LACKED HEART.
Otherwise He Might Have Knocked Jefrries
Out I'm n Trial Bout.

Big Bob Armstrong was knocked out in
four rounds at Haverhill on Christmas Day
by another oolored pugilist named Walter
Johnson Armstrong. il he had possessed
the courage and the nerve, might have
prevented James j. Jeffries from ever COM
ing into prominence When Billy De-
laney brought JeTries Fast for the first
time the boilernaker was practically un-
known. He weighed 90 pounds stripped
and Delaney together with Billy Brady.
proclaimed him the coming champion Of the
world In order TO prove TO the pugilistc
fraternity that JeIries could fight, it was
arranged for him to meet two men in single
night-Bob Armstrong and Steve O'Don-
nell JefTries contracted to knock each
of them out inside Of ten rounds and the
affair was put on at the Lenox 4. c., in this
city.
Armstrong was a scientific. shifty boxer
and a good hard pumcher. He had Tom
o'Rourke behind him and was the first to
face JefTries. The latter was 20 fat when
he climbed into the ring that the crowd
fairly hooted him in derision. II Jeff had
been introduced as John Jones OF Hoboken.
Armstrong would probably have displayed
the courage Of hon but the fact that the
bulky Californian was be aided a. a coming
champion took all the heart out OF the big
negro. Yet al that JefIries never came
near scoring knockout in the ten rounds.
Instead he numbered around the ring In
the clumsiest manner. Armstrong using his
feet skilfully and iabblng away with the
left hand 60 his hearts content Ii was
a pretty even thing and could have been
called n draw but at the end of the bout
the referee decided in favor OF Jehrle-.
partly because Armstrong had been clearly
afraid 10 take chance.
Jeh's showing was 80 poor that Delaney
and Brady evidently decided that no more
chances should b. taken with n man of
O'Donnell's calibre 70 the bollermaker
announced that he had injured his thumb
in the 20 with Armstrong and could not
meet O'Donneil 1t was such a fizzle that
Jefries was called a dub and lobster
by the short Drained critics who could not
soc where he had look in for the cham
pion-hip. fitzsinmons was one OF the
spectators that night and he formed such
poor opinion OF Jeh's prowrss that he held
him oheaply all the time that he was training
for the mill that turned the championship
over to the big fellow.
Armstrong never got over the fact that
he lost chance to acquire fame by heating
Jeff when the latter was out of real fighting
trim
III had only taken O'Rourke's tip and
mixed it up said he, i would have knocked
Jeh out sure for he was the biggest dufef
ever saw. But ita too late now.
Later Armstrong gave Frank p. Slavin
who wanted 10 fight sullivan once fear
full beating up in The Bronx. Both men
were covered with blood and Slavin was
finally knocked out. But Armstrong knew
that the Antipodean was in weak phy-Ica
condition and consequently had no fear.

He believes that the reason why he gets

RESTRAINT OF COMMERCE
It Is Expected That Nearly 800 Wit
nesses viii Be Summoned Win
Take Each Case
Separately.

Chicago, Aug. 14.-october 2 has been
announced as the trial day for 81
packers and lawyers and corporations
indicted on charges Of combining in
restraint of commerce, accepting re-
bates and interfering with government
witnesses. Between Is and 20 fresh
subpoenas, returnabe on the date named
srere secretly issued Friday and were
served Friday night. The issuance Of
the papers surprised most Of the
packers.
This action by District Attorney G. b.
Morrison followed quickly the words Of
President Roosevelt in an address at
Chautauqua Friday declaring that the
prosecution Of the packers would be
pushed. Even while the president was
uttering the words the new subpoenas
in The interest Of the governments case
were being handed to deputy marshals.
Secrecy was observed because it was
feared, as in the search for witnesses for
The grand jury, some Of the important
witnesses might fee from The country.
Although relatively few subpoenas
have yet been served, it is believed that
between 200 and 500 witnesses viii be
called from all parts Of the United States
before the trials have been completed.
Assistant Attorney General Oliver Pagin
has been in Chicago for some time push
ina the preparatory work, aided BY At
torney Goldman and Special Agent Dun
can When the first case is placed on
trial, it is probable that there viii be a
number Of additional attorneys sent to
Chicago from Washington to aid in the
case Each case win necessarily be
taken up separately 1t is probable,
therefore, that at least three months
win have passed before the last case has
been decided.
