IN KELLEY'S FAVOR.
Decision of Judge Thompson at Gin
cinnati Today.

CINCINNATI Ohio. December 1.-The
decision of the national base ball commits
sion sending Michael J. Kelley from the
ST. Paul American Association club to the
ST Louis American League club was, at
least temporarily. overruled in the United
States court here today by Judge. A. &.
Thompson who issued a temporary injunc-
ton against enforcement of the commits
siorts decision.
Kelley was manage and president of the
st. Paul club. and played at first base. but
he claimed that he had not signed any con-
tract as a player and could not therefore
be held by the national agreement provi-
sions to the extent that his services could
be sold by the st. Paul management as had
been done The attorneys for the commis-
sion maintained that as president of the
St. Paul club he had acquiesced in the
terms OF the agreement and should be,
therefore, subject to its provisions.
The court, however, sustained Kelly S
contention and issued a temporary injunc-
ton. pending final hearing. In the course
of his decision Judge Thompson interpreted
the national agreement, quoting from it.,
but in way questioning its effect AS to
Keleys continued service with St. Paul I'M
der old contract after the adoption OF
the national agreement, he said that this
may have been vioiative Of that a greement

EASY FOR INDIANS.
Defeated Georgetown by Overwhelming
Score of re to O.

The feud that has ragged for three CEN
turtles or more between the white man and
the aborigine was resumed yesterday after
noon at American League Park, when the
redskins from Carlisle lined up against the
foot ball warriors of Georgetown. 1t was
g. fast and furious contest, and suffice 1t
to say, when the final whistle was sound
ed there was none among the 1850 watchers

There was nothing to It, although the
local lads put UP game Tight Carlisle had
been trained In a faster school; her men
were larger and moro experienced. and
when they went against the line with con-

During the first half Carlisle played her
best team, and scored AZ points. In tho Sec

In defense of the Soldiers that they were
completely taken by surprise and were
playing substitutes for half the game At
the very end of the season the Virginia
team played the Navy and was beaten by
the score of IL to 6. This would seem
to indicate a certain superiority on the
part OF the middies, but the Annapolis team
was at the top of Its form at this time
and knew what TO expect, conditions which
did not prevail when the Soldiers lined
up against the Virginians.
Furthermore, the Soldiers have played a

NEW YORK BOYS WON.
Commerce Team Too Heavy for NC
Kinley Lads.

AAAiAiNJ
Two thousand persons braved the north
west blasts that swept over Washington
Heights, New York, yesterday afternoon.
and saw the High School of Commerce foot
ball team treat the team from the Nc
Kinley Manual Training School of this
city to a good old-fashioned northern snow
storm at the American League park The
snowunder took the form of a score of IS
to O.
The icy blasts from the North river set
the blood tnglingi and the players were on
tiptoe every minute. A large delegation
from the De Witt Clinton High School was
on hand and cheered the Commerce team
The Washington boys were smaller than
the New York boys and never did they
seriously threaten the latter's goal line In
deed, only few times did they manage to
get the ball and make first down.
Washington kicked off to the 10-yard line
The New York boys ran the ball back forty
yards. Voorhees, made twenty-five yards
around right end. Commerce then lost five
yards on delayed pass. and lost the ball
on the next play. Mckinley was forced
to kick. and the Commerce team got the
ball In the middle of the field. The Wash
ington team was then forced down the
field. Hirshman went through ten yards,
and Hoffman, on the next play, was pushed
over for a touchdown. This ended the
scoring in the first half. Commerce, 6;
Mckinley, 0.
At the beginning OF Inc second hal1 BlrSh-
man kicked over the goal line, and McKin-
ley returned from the 25-yard line. The
Mckinley team seemed to weaken, and wa s
utterly unable to withstand the sturdy at
lacks of their heavier opponents.
Droan, Thiele and Garvey found holes for
small gains for Mckinley, but they were
not sufficient to count. Commerce was in
vincible when II came to the crises, and
held for downs when a gain would have
meant another chance for the Washington
boys
The game ended with the ball in the mid
die of the field. Final score Commerce. IS;
Mckinley, 0.

JoHNSoN's BIG CONTRACT.
He Undertakes to Stop Jackson in
Twelve Rounds

Boxing bouts with heavyweight and a
middle weight as contestants with handicap
conditions attached are not everyday oc-
currences. One of that nature will take
place tonight before the Eureka Athletic
and Social Club of Baltimore, when Jack
Johnson, undoubtedly the best of the color
cd heaVyweights and conceded to be among
the topnotchers of the world in his class,
and Young Peter Jackson" one of the
best middle weights, clash IN a twelve
round contest. Johnson has undertaken to
one of the few who can boast of never hav-
ing been knocked out. Jackson has a Pc
culiar style of covering himself up that
makes him almost invulnerable.
Johnson's record shows him to be also In
Jackson's class In having never been knock
ed out. Furthermore he has never even
lost a battle. which record Jackson cannot
boast of.
Johnson has expressed the greatest conf
dence In his ability to carry out his end OF
the contract. He said: jackson is a
cracking good boxer and no one should
overlook that fact. will really hate to put
him to sleep tonight on account of the fact
that 1t win be his first time. am In tip

on the coast were wise aud would not stand
for It. They had to give It up then"

TRADE OF PLAYERS.
Pitcher Jacobsen Exchanged for
TWirler Sudhoff


After couple Of days correspondence
and telegraphing President Noyes of the
Washington Base Ball Club and President
Hedges of the St Louis Club have fixed up
a trade whereby Jack Sudhoff, the pitcher
comes to this city in exchange for Pitcher
Jacobsen. 1t was an even-up bargain and
should benefit both twirlers, as they had
expressed a desire for a change Jack Sud
hoff couple of seasons back was consid-
cred one of the best twirlers in the country
but a big cut in salary knocked out all his
ambition and his work of late has been
only ordinary. He had asked Mana ger
Stahl to fix up a trade, as he wanted to
play here and with a change of cities the
little fellows old proves may return. If it
does he will be a great help to the Nationals
Jacobsen will be close to his home, and the
new arrangement will also suit him.
All the clubs in the American League are
trying to arrange trades and sales, and be-
fore long general shifting of many play

and the diplomatic corps arrive. For the
time being the executive, judicial and leg
islative department of the United States
government will be transferred to this city,
while the officials spend one afternoon in
the enjoyment of Americas most strenuous
sport.
This will undoubtedly be the first time in
the history Of American foot ball that a
President and an ex-President of the United
States have attended a foot ball game to-
sether. President Roosevelt will see his
second contest between the two academies
and eX-Prcsident Cleveland his first. PreSi-
dent Roosevelt will be the guest of Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson of Princeton, and the
two will occupy special boxes.
The Army and Navy foot ball squads
reached the city last night and both took
brief signal drills on the field. The cadets
from the two academies will not arrive until
tomorrow morning, when they will come in
on special trains. Arrangements have been
made to feed them In the university gym
nasum. which has been turned into an i'm
mense mess hall for the purpose. The other
notable guests will be cared for at the diff
ferent clubs, each one having agreed to
care for 300 or more if necessary.
The game itself promises to be one of the
most evenly contested in many years. There
has been the usual amount of betting be-
tween the two academies, but neither side
has been willing to give any odds, so evenly
matched are they considered TO be. On the
record of the two teams for the year the
middies seem to have the better of the ar
gument but the soldier lads have won with
such regularity on former occasions that
their friends regard them as unbeatable
now.
Comparing the Teams.
1t is a hard matter to compare the two
teams just now. at least on their 1895
record. This is because they had but one
opponent in common. and the Navy had by
far the easier schedule. The only team
that both played was the Virginia Poly
technic Institute. This team sprung a sur

whiriwind pace and 1t was easy for them
to roll up 20 points. Against the Indians
the Soldiers should have been victorious
They gained the more ground and their
march of ninety yards for touchdown
was splendid foot ball. 1t was only on
tumble and long run that the Indians
We're able to score at all. All the other
games the Soldiers have played they have
won by creditabie scores
The sailors. on the other hand. have
played only the minor college elevens, and
they were beaten by one Of these. Their
only defeat OF the year was at the hands
or the heavy Swarthmore team, but since
swarthrnore beat Cornell IA to and over
whelmed both Lafayette and Wesleyan the
middies do not feel disgraced over this de-
feat Az their other games have been won
by superior foot ball
Against West Point the Annapolis eleven
bases Its hopes for a victory the new
system Of coaching which was started a
year ago this fall with Dashieli at the
mead. The middies have been making re-
markable progress and have organized and
built UP system which they think will
triumph over the soldier cadets without
much difficulty. If the navy wins it will
be due more to the graduate system OF
coaching than anything else.
History of the Series.
Since the series OF games between the
two academies was started in 1890 the SOL
diers have won six games and the middies
four. In the first four games played the
soldiers won but once. Then the games
were forbidden for six years and were not
resumed until 1899, when the University of
Pennsylvania interceded, and the govern
ment gave it's consent to their resumption.
OF the new series six games have been
played and of these the soldier eleven has
won five The middies triumphed in 1890,
but since then they have hardly had q show
until last year, when the army won by II
