BACK FROM CALIFORNIA.
Football Men Arrive and are IN Fine
Condition Things About the
Game.

The OAC football men arrived
from California Wednesday after
noon, and met with an enthusiastic
greeting at the station. Several
hundred students, headed by the
cadet regiment band were at the de-
pot, and the reception was stormy
and strenuous. The yells of the
receptionists was significant ap-
proval of the work of the OAC
men in the Berkeley game, where,
all accounts agree, they acquitted
themselves most creditably. The
team against which the boys went
is accounted by DR.. Sickle as one
of the best in the history of Cal
ifornia football. The speed was
great and the teamwork superb.
There was an unlimited resource of
men, no less than 80 players, all
said to be of equal availability, be-
ing on the sidelines, waiting for an
opportunity to go into the struggle.
The moment a Berkeley player
showed weakness, the coaches took
him out and sent in a fresh man.
Throughout the first half Berkeley,
was easily held out Of striking dis
tance. save in the case of a place
kick which the -Ca1ifornians were
enabled to make by an OAC
tumble.
In the second half, the OAC
men had to play on their nerve
against the constantly freshened
troops of the Blue and Gold. For
nation after formation was hurled
against them but they met every
assault with as much power as with
which it came, and the ball surged
back and forth with honors largely
even save when Snedigar by a
lucky chance, got away for sixty
yard run for the only touchdown o
the game. Once Williams, got
away on exactly the same terms
and after thirty yard run was only
prevented from making a touch
down by being driven few inche:
outside of bounds. Most of The
OAC players, believe that in an
other trial. fierce as are the latter
they could do the Californians.
All Of the team arrived home ii
good condition, and unless some O.
them get blown up or fall out of {
we'll, the prospect is that every ont
in the bunch will be in the pink o
condition for the big game witt
U. of o. on Saturday of next week
Since his return. Manager Stim
son described his feelings as Snedi
gar was making his 60 yard rul
for the touchdown. Evidently he
didn't want the Californian to eros
the goal line. Gosh: if I'd had
gun, I'd shot him" he said.

FISCAL ISSUE REVIVED.
Mr. Asquith disks for PorIiGments
Dissolution-GoUernmenfs Reply.

London, Feb. 15.-The debate on the Address
in reply to the Speech from the Throne was
resumed by H H. Asquith. Liberal, and former
Home Secretary who moved the following
amendment in the House of Commons to-day;
We hulnbly represent to your majesty that
the various aspects of the fiscal question nave
been fully discussed in the country for nearly
two wears and that the time has come for sub
uniting the question to the people without fur
ther delay.
Mr. Asouith supported this demand for an i'm
mediate dissolution of Parliament with some
trenchant remarks on the wide fiscal gulf sep
alating the Unionist factions. Turning to NJ
Balfour, Mr. Asquith asked him to give mono
svIlabic answer whether or not there was any
practical difference between the Premler's ana
Joseph Chamberains fiscal policies, but Mr'
Balfour was silent
The speaker then declared that Mr. Chamber
lain was also becoming inoculated with the
malaria of ambiguity" and added>that the IN
+oIerable confusion. menacing and perllous 10
industry and the empire. could only be cleared
rp by a prompt and direct appeal to the peopis'
Austen Chamberlain. the Chancellor OF the
F>xchequer. replied, taunting the Liberals WIN
asking tbs country for a mandate to stimulate
bountv-fed competition with British manufact-
ures and TO maintain z system of free imports
without a free exchange. The Opposltions pol
icy, he added, was 10 smut lIS eyes to an thd'
was passing in the rest of the world and cling
10 the ancestral traditions of sixty years ago.
The government desired free hand to nego-
tiate fiscal matters with foreign countries and
the colories, and unfetteTed conference of
the latter to see If a closer union could not be
promoted between Great Britain and the other
parts of the empire.
Mr.. Asquiths amendment was discussed at
the evening session. Sir Edward Grey said that
next to a foundation of force foundation of
taxes was the weakest upon which empire
could he built. The present suspense. he said,
was bad both politically and materially. A
moral obligation rested on the government to
appeal to the country. The debate was ad-
iourned

sToEssEL DEFENDS HIS ACTION.
Port Arthur's Inner Forts Weak-The
Japanese Drilling Tools.

London. Feb. 16.-The correspondent at Port
Said Of ''The Standard" gives interview with
General Stoessel denying the charges made by
the Peking correspondent of '"The Times con-
cerning the surrender of Port Arthur and it's
defensive condition. General Stoessel attributed
the japanese success in great measure to the
superlative quality of their drilling tools, COM
pared with those of the Russians, whose imple-
ments quickly deteriorated against hard rock
The general emphatically declared that all tina
public descriptions of the second line OF forts
purely imaginary. These forts, he SAID
were only temporary defences.
General Stoessel further said that the strength
of the garrison never amounted to 25,O00 men,
At the end of April, before the investment be-
came complete. the Russian forces on the Kwan-
Tung Peninsula were only 19,6SS. He adhered
to the original reasons given for the surrender,
and through the interview appeared to be bitter
whenever reference made TO the navy.

Paris, Feb 15-French correspondents sent to
meet the steamer which carries General Stoessel
and other survivors OF Port Arthur forward
detailed accounts of discord among the Russian
officers. The army officers particularly hos
tile to the fleet habitually calling It the fright
ened feet" Admiral Lockinsky, who was COM
nander of the torpedo defences at Port Arthur,
is quoted bitterly critcising General Stoessel,
Admiral Alexeff and others.
The 'Matin" quotes Lockinsky as calling Ad-
mirals Stark and Wittsoeft 'bedchamber ad-
rnirals not acquainted with their duties and
seasick whenever afloat." The admiral added
that Admiral Skrydloff prudently established
himself ashore at Vladivostok. Notwithstanding
his opportunity to break the ineffective blockade
of Port Arthur. Lockinsky declared he would
denounce Stoessel Skrydloff and Alexief be-
fore the court martial as he did not intend to let
himself be made scapegoat like Admiral Ouk
tomsky who now trembles with fear in
Chinese hospital" Lockinsky cited many IN
stances of the improvidence of the land and
naval forces. frequent conflicts of authority and
Generalization in critical engagements
Substantially the same account is given by
four French newspapers, which say that Gen
ersI Stoessel and Admiral Lockinsky refuse to
salute each other The papers say the discord
among the officers foreshadows grave scenes be-
for the court martial. The Petit Parisien'
quoted General Stoessel as sarcasticaliy saying:
Rojestvensky had better not establish a too
secure base along the route, or, like the naval
officers at Port Arthur, 1t will be impossible TO
let them venture seaward.
The correspondent Of the Petit Parisien'
adds:
General stoessei cannot pardon the navy's
failure to succor him, while the navy fully re-
turns his hatred.
The French correspondents believe that the
fortress fell largely because of the quarrels
among the officers.

The Governor himself admits that the condi-
tions are very grave. He is anxious to avoid
bloodshed. but fears 1t will be difficult. He has
ordered soldiers to refrain from exciting the ami
mostly of the strikers and that they must not
shoot unless first attacked. The attitude of the
strikers shows increasing hostility. The Gov

martial law, and this probably will end the
strike but it may cost many lives.
The manufacturers are hesitating and unable
to reach an agreement with regard to conceS-
