players are none of them excessively
large, but they average well up to-
ward 1856 pounds mark.
The Normal team has been coached
by Samson, an old Princeton player
The officials for the Washburn-Nor-
NAL game will be E. c. Quigley of st.
Marys and John Fleishman, the old
K. U. player Quigley will referee.
The Washburn team will probably
be somewhat crippled In the Normal
game by the absence of Hill at tackle.
Hill is suffering from an injured
shoulder. He may start the game,
but he will hardly attempt to play it
out. Ware will probably be put in at
his place, unless Sharp's bad ankle
should happen to fail. in which case
Ware viii go to guard. If both Hill
and Sharp are put out, Ware will play
tackle, and Hartzell guard.
The probability is that Washburn
will win over the Normal by a small
score, but it would not be surprising
if the Normal should cross Washburn's s
goal line.
Washburn's game for October Il is
with the State Agricultural college,
and is scheduled for Manhattan. Efforts
are being made to have the game
played in Topeka.

HEARING, PRO AND CON,
ROCK CREEK BRIDGE
Arguments Advanced by Advocates and
Opponents of Proposed Structure
Before Commissioners.

Arguments were advanced before the
District Commissioners this morning
by two groups Of Georgetown citizens
with conflicting opinions as 70 the ad-
visibility of constructing a bridge over
Rock Creek at q Street.
The hearing was granted TO those in
favor OF the bridge, and the privilege
Of opening and closing the debate was
extended TO advocates Of the project.
w Riley Deeble acted as spokesman
for those opposed to the bridge and in
favor of the proposed Rock Creek tun-
mel as "a substitute. George a. King and
George Z. Hamilton were advocates of
the bridge.
AT the conclusion of the hearing the
Commissioners announced they would
earnestly consider the case Commits
sioner Macfarland assured those present
that the Board always considered
Georgetown's interests as closely as the
rest Of the District.
II was urged by the advocates Of the
bridge that immediate relief was need
ed in the way of u new approach to
Georgetown; that in the present mood
Of Congress there seems to be little
hope Of securing an appropriation such
as would be required for the tunnel
project, which they varfously estimated
to cost from S1,S00.0O0 to $4,000. 600,
and that the necessary amount for the
bridge, about $3.50, ,0G0, could be easily
secured. They predicted it would be
many years before the tunnel scheme
could be carried out
The opponents Of the bridge denounced
the proposed waste of money in building
a temporary bridge, and quoted Engi-
necr Commissioner Biddle's estimate
that 10 construct the tunnel from Lyons
Mill 10 point twenty-five feet below
o Street would cost $3.50. 900. with an adj
ditional s75o.000 TO complete the tunnel
TO the Chesapeake and Ohio delta.

HITCHCOCK SCORES
BUREAU CHIEFS
Orders Them to Stay Away
From the Capitol.
THE FAMOUS WARE INCIDENT
Officer of Geological Survey in the Tolls
for Alleged Activity to Influence
Legislation.
THE FAMOUS WARE INCIDENT

Tired of the trouble some of them
have been causing at the Capitol In the
way of legislation, Secretary Hitchcock
of the Department of the Interior has
issued orders to all of the chiefs of
bureaus ard divisions in the department
that hereafter they must not go before
Congress on matters pertaining to their
duties without first obtaining the ap-
provaI CT the Secretary.
This order has been brought out as a
result Of the tangle caused by the late
Commissioner of Pensions Eugene F.
Ware, who, without Secretary Hitch
cock knowing it. had House commit
tee cut out of an appropriation bill
money needed for sixteen clerks trans
ferred from the Pension Bureau to the
offices OF the board of pension appeals
in the Department of the Interior
Had the purpose of the Commissioner
succeeded the clerks would have been
thrown out of the service.
Secretary Hitchcock, however, caught
the matter before the Senate had acted.
ana AT the conference yesterday the
the appropriation bill, thus ending this
one tangle-
In Geological Survey.
Hardly had the Secretary arranged
this affair, however, before he 6iscov-
cred that F. II. Newell, an officer Of the
Geological Survey. chief engineer OF the
reclamation division, had appeared be-
fore several of the House and Senate
committees in behalf of certain irriga-
ton schemes of which the Secretary
knew nothing.
Thoroughly incensed Secretary Hitch
cock wrote a very hot letter fO Mr.
Newell forbidding him hereafter to at
tempt to influence legislation in any
way without first obtaining the per-
mission OF the Secretary.
Following this the order was issued,
and in the future any chief, who at
tempts to go over the head of Secretary
Hitchcock can count on having an ex-
citing time of it,
