Princeton, N. J..Dec. 2.-Presi
dent Roosevelt today saw a fierce
game of football between the Army
and NAVY cadets, when the teams
played a tie game, the score being G
to 6. p1
The contest gave the President a
great opportunity 10 observe a foot
ball game as 1t is really played, and
he undoubtedly gained valuable point
ers for his movement to reform the
game. 1t was hard struggle from
the time the game was called until
the whistle blew at the end of the
contest.
Princeton was gaily decorated with
thousands of penants today in honor
of the annual football game.
The weather was cloudy. There
were more than 1875 detectives from
a private agency in New York, and
thirty policemen from the Jersey City
force were added to the local force to
preserve order at University field, and
to guard the President.
During the first half of the game
the President was on the Navy side
of the field, and during the second
half on the Army side.

TRAIN IN DITCH.
Southbound Denver G. Rio 0rande
Jumps Track at Barranca-Pas.
sengers Escape.

| George Lewis, an engineer on the
Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, was
slightly injured at noon yesterday,
when the engine of which he had
charge went into the ditch about
leight miles from Barranca taking
coaches with 1t.
A number of passengers on the
train were uninjured. This was prob
ably due to the presence of mind of
e. E. Roos, an official of the road.
When the shock OF the engine leaving
the track was felt in the passenger
coach on the rear Of the train, Mr..
Roos seized the air valve and set the
brakes by pulling with all his
strength.
His prompt work, however. did not
prevent the forward wheels of the
coach from leaving the rails, but the
car stopped before the rear trucks had
left the track.
Mrs. H. w. Warner, the manager Of
the Santa Fe Office of the Western
Union Telegraph Company, was pas
senger on the train, returning to her
work in this city after a three weeks
vacation. Mrs. Warner was also
passenger on Santa Fe train which
ran into the ditch near Trinidad. Colo
rado, about ten days ago.
The accident yesterday makes the
second wreck she was in during her
vacation.
Four men who were In the rear
coach of the train at the time of the
accident, are registered at the Claire
Hotel today. They are: e. T. Johnson.
Chama, A. S. Loughled, Edith, New
Mexico, William Kinderman. Chama.
and o. ]. Smith, Berehound. Colorado
"We were playing cards at the time
of the accident" said Mr.. Johnson,
"and just sat there with the cards In
our hands, until the car stopped. 1t
happened so suddenly, we had not time
to act. The wrecked train, tore up
about 100 yards of track.
"The accident was caused by spread
ing rails. We passengers remained on
the scene of the wreck until spe.
cial train from Santa Fe came out and
brought us to this city. 1t took sew
eral hours for wreck train to reach
the scene and repair the damage"
