BIG CROWD EXPECTED.
President Among Those Going to Army
and Navy Game.

Princeton, n. J., Dec. 2. Princeton
has already taken on the look of war
camp after a great victory, and for the
first time since the war of the Revolu-
ti0n, has its own little touch of the
p0mp of militarism. Games which have
more to do with the decision of the
foot ball championship Princeton has
seen, but never before has she seen
foot ball game which will be the gather
ing point for so many notables as will
come for the game between West Point
and Annapolis at Osborne Field today.
The army OF spectators continued to
arrive and reached its climax in the arr
rival of President Roosevelt and his
party on a special train about noon
today.
Osborne Field, where the contest will
be held, has blossomed forth with two
immense new stands, which have in
creased the seating capacity to 10000.
The army and navy have each received
$500 Of the 10000 tickets for free dis
tribution, and the remaining $4,000 were
given out for sale to the general public.
Besides President Roosevelt and his
party there is an unusual number Of
persons of national Importance. With
President Roosevelt are Secretary and
Mrs. Root, Secretary Loeb, Capt. and
Mrs. w. S. Cowes and Miss Alice Roose-
veit Secretary Taft and Secretary Bon
aparte each brought down parties in
their private cars. The British, German
and French ambassadors and their suites
will be in attendance, besides large
number Of army and navy officers Of
high rank.
The teams Of the two academies have
met annually since 1890, except for a
break Of six years, from 1893 to 1899,
when athletic relations were severed
OF the 10 games played, the army has
won six to the navy's won, and for the
last four year the West Pointers have
won every game.

FOOTBALL CALLED GAME
OF BEEF AND BRUTALITY
New York Pastor Scores Big Unversi-
ties, and Says We Approach Level
of Roman Games.

New York, Dec. 2.-Dr. David G..
Wyiie, pastor Of the Scotch Presbyter-
ian church, gave thanks Thursday for
the growth Of the humanitarian spirit
which, recognizing the brutality of col
lege football, is striving to modify the
game so as to eliminate Objectionable
features and make it contest of skill
rather than sanguinary combat like
unto those of the gladitorial days
"Things have been going from bad to
WORSE" said DIR. Wylie. sYale, Harvard,
Princeton and other institutions have
permitted their students to engage in
sports which have resulted in the loss
of many lives. These games of football
have, in most instances, degenerated in
20 contests of beef and brutality. We
are fast getting down to the level Of
the Roman gladitorial games in which
women as well as men applauded the
victor who gave the death blow. We
want sports manly sports but they
must be humanitarian"

Murderous Millinery.

When the figures Of the millinery

are, the Animals Friend points out,
rather appalling. Ten million birds a

to supply the women Of the United
States with suitable hat trimming; 49,
600 terms in a single season on Cape Cod,
100000 bobolinks near Philadelphia in
single month, and 10000 birds sent

from one village on Long Island. Eng

100000 birds year. One London deal

100000 humming birds, 6,000 birds Of
paradise, and 100000 miscellaneous

birds perish each year to trim the hats
of the women of the world. -Westmin-

SUCCESSOR TO
FIELDS NAMED
Mutual Life Turns Legislative
Agent Loose.
NOT EXPECTED TO RETURN
Adrian Iselin, Jr., Resigns = Trustee
Hands Paper to Friend With In
structions to Present 1t Next
Wednesday.

New York, Dec. 2.--By the action of
President Cromwell of the Mutual Life
in appointing yesterday a successor to
Andrew c. Fields as executive head of
the company's supply department, tacit
admission is made that the new admin
istration has no expectation of the re-
turn to New York Of the former leg
islative generalissimo" while the insur-
ance investigation is on.
The first appointment made by Presi-
dent Cromwell was that of w. s. Sulli-
van, former advertising manager, to the
post formerly filed by Mr.. Fields. In
view of the fact that Mr.. Fields has been
notified to return at once and accept
a summons from the Armstrong commit
tee, on pain of dismissal, the appoint
ment of Mr.. Sullivan is significant.
Mr.. Fields left New York several
weeks before the legislative committee
convened. Efforts to locate him were
at first unproductive OF result, but the
committee was finally informed that the
absentee was in California suffering from
a mortal illness.
Following revelations OF Mr. Fields
activity in Albany, IN connection with
legislation affecting both the Mutual and
Equitable Life, Mr.. Hughes and the
members of the committee were ex-
tremely DESTROYS of questioning him.
They called on the Mutual to produce
their agent, and were met with a de-
faint refusal from the McCurdys' legal
representative.
Later, when the housekeeping COM
mittee of the Mutual made its first re-
port, the trustees ordered Mr. McCurdy
to summon Fields at once, not so much
with the idea that he would actually
return, but to place themselves in d
position to drop him from the company's
rolls.
Another development in the Mutual's
transition is the threatened resignation
Of several trustees. II was learned yes
terday that Adrian Iselin, Jr., since 1898
a member Of the board, had handed his
resignation to friendly colleague, with
instructions to present il at the meeting
next Wednesday.
Efforts to dissuade Mr.. Iselin from
carrying out his intention to sever CON
nections with the company are being
made by several influential friends.
But there is no doubt that the resig-
nation has been written in readiness for
presentation.
Several other trustees, many of whom
have been on the Mutual's board for
years, have decided to follow the exam
pie set by Mr.. lselin and by Rufus w.
Peckham, supreme court justice, and for
twenty-one years connected with the
Mutual.

Authoritative Information Of
Inquiry Comes to Wall Street
MR.. ROOSEVELT IMPRESSED
Determined to Follow Up Open Charges
Made Concerning Rebates--He Is
Greatly Stirred by
Revelations.

New York, Dec. Authorization TO
the effect that there is strong move
ment on foot in Washington, backed by
President Roosevelt, to institute a fed.
eral investigation of the Standard Oil
Company and its allied interests was
received yesterday by several prominent
New York financiers.
Although there have been uncertain
rumors regarding proposed inquiry cur
rent for several weeks, nothing author
itative was learned until late Thursday.
Inquiries made BY interested New York
business men have confirmed the news.
More than a month ago President
Roosevelt is said to have expressed a
desire that thorough inquiry be made
regarding the methods OF the great
Rockefeller corporation.
The charges of Relating and Wholesale
discrimination made by writer's in the
daily press and in magazine against
the STANDARD Oil management, as well as
the representations of private individ-
uals, greatly impressed the President.
Effort to Control Insurance.
Still another development which at
tracted bis attention was the apparent
effort on the part Of Standard Oil repre-
sentatives TO gain control of the three
largest life insurance companies in the
country.
The inference which ii to be drawn IN
this Connection Is that alarm is felt in
Washington lest the Rockefeller monop-
oily, possessed Of the tremendous com
bined surplus of these great institutions,
should become strong enough to defy
even the government in any effort it
might wish to make in the direction of
correcting abuses.
1t is known that reputable citizens Of
the middle west aroused by what they
termed the criminal methods of the
Standard oil Company, have been ac-
corded lengthy hearings by President
Roosevelt.
Charges were made BY these men
against the Standard Oil, to the effect
that the many state and federal office
holders through the payment to them OF
large sums OF money and by other inn
proper means.

with the positive evidence adduced by

HOW Will YOU ANSWER
THIS QUESTION, WHICH WILL Be PUT TO YOU BEFORE LONG,

Many life insurance companies have
come to the conclusion that patent medi-
cine users are bad risks, and they re-
ouire their examiners to ask all appli-
cants for insurance: what patent
medicines have you used in the last
i've yearYs This has become necessary
because of the large number Of human
wrecks, whose health has been destroyed
by the constant use Of patent medicines
advertised so largely all over the ooun-
try.
These medicines are made up Of all
cohol. opium, cocaine and other drugs,
which should only be used in sparing
quantities and under the direction Of
competent physicians. There are 50
many people unconsciously destroying
themselves through the use OF these
