Colonel Hart thinks the local club will benefit
by the change, II mace, as Steinfeldt, IN addi-

the stick. Sebrng is brilliant fielder and i,
good hitter, but has received much adverse criti-

High-school football is on in earnest. All
four teams are playing today. They are: Central

Alumni, Minnehaha park; North Side VS.. Fort
Smelling, North Side grounds, and East Side VS..
University Freshmen, university campus.
The double-header at Minnehaha park is under
the joint management OF South and central.
Central lined up against Its alumni at 3 o'clock
and played ffteen-minute halves. AS as
this game was finished South Side took a whirl
at its old-timers. q. = h.. ....--
Coach Morse Of Central is working hard to
rally his from the depression which nat
urally follows the loss of four from the
squad. Until yesterday afternoon it was not
generally known that Semple, the promising Hill
school man who was candidate for end, would
be barred by the antifraternity rule. Yester-
day he appeared on the side lines with Dicken-
son, Stair and Corcoran. Semple attended Cen
trail several years ago and Joined one of the
fraternities. This fact was not generally known
until he failed to report in uniform. =
"Hoodoo,' Says Morse.
Speaking of his disqualification former Captain
Dickinson said: 81 might have known that 1t
would happen. There seems to be a sort OF
hoodoo attached to the captatncy of the Cen:
trail team. For four years now the first man
to be elected has been barred by the faculty

AGED MILLIONAIRE
GIVES TESTIMONY
HANNA ELIAS is CHARGED
WITH BLACKMAIL
John r. PIatt Takes Witness Stand
in Suit to Recover Three-Quar-
ters of a Million
Dollars

Special TO The Herald
NE WYORK, Jan. 1.-THE remark
able suit of John r. Platt, the ageo
millionaire, against Hannah Elias,
negress, for $6S5,0OO out of which he
alleges she blackmaied him, came up
for trial today. Ex-Governor Black led
the Elias woman's legal forces. The
case is of particular interest because
the tragic incident of it was the murder
of Greene, a distinguished citizen
known at "Father of Greater New
York" by a jealous negro.
Greene resembled Platt in appear
ance, and the negro shot him to death.
Platt was the woman's real admirer.
Although Greene's personal record was
spotless, this incident threw a cloud on
his memory. If the suit of Platt VS..
Elias accomplishes nothing more, it has
indicated Greene's good name.
Platt first met Hannah years ago
when ne was showing a party of volun-
teer firemen from California the sights
of New York's tenderloin.
In his testimony today Platt told in
years he had known her had extorted
$685. 900 from him under threats of ex-
posing him.
Mrs. Elias was in court with a body
guard. She was extensively dressed
and the effective use of cosmetics has
changed her swarthy complexion until
il was almost white.
A bowling mob created a small riot
when the negress left the court room
There was greater and even more
unruly mob on the street surrounding
her carriage. Police reserves were
summoned, but even then Mrs. Elias
entrance to the carriage resembled a
football scrimmage.

FEARS ATTACK ON CAPTIVE
Sheriff Takes Richard Maughs to Mer-
ced by Roundabout Way

BY Associated Presc.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 17.-Richard
Maughs, who is under arrest for the
killing of his employer, Charles Zan-
der, in Merced county. was brought to
this city today and lodged in prison
by Under Sheriff Moore, who is taking
him to Merced in this roundabout way
to avoid any possibility of interference
with the due process of law, as he says
there is much feeling against the
prisoner.
Maughs shot Zander during a dis
putee over fence. He persists in his
original statement that the shooting
was done in self defense. He says that
after the tragedy he made his way to
the mountains, got into a small cave
on the San Benito side of the range,
made a barricade of his stronghold and
decided to give battle to the pursuing
posse, which he knew would soon be on
his trail. After night of cold and
hunger he made his way to the French
ranch and gave himself up.

S. P. WILL DRIVE TUNNEL
THROUGH SIERRA NEVADAS
Contract Said to Have Been Let for
Work, Which Will Take
Over Three Years
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
NEVADA, Jan. 17.-Stewart Mckay
of Truckee' says he was told by man
close to the management of the South
ern Pacific company that the contract
for the great tunnel through the sum-
NIT of the Sierra Nevada mountains
had been let and that the work of
driving the same would begin in April.
The same authority says that it is es-
timated that it will take three and a
half years to complete the tunnel.
1t has been suggested that the en-
trance of the tunnel on the east side
of the summit should be started sew
eral feet below the water level of DON
ner lake, which then should supply a
sufficient amount of water to irrigate
a million acres of land on the west
ern side of the summit. This is not
the only body of waited that can be
tapped at the eastern end of the tunnel.
The large volume of water in the
Truckee river also could be utilized
for irrigation purposes. The river is an
outlet of Lake Tahoe and it's flow the
year around is uniform.

Chief HAMMEL
IS REAPPOINTED
NO DISSENTING VOTE ON
CHOICE
"eentlemen, Thank You" Is the
Record Breaking speech Made
by Head Of the Police
Department

Chief Of Police w. A. Hammel was
yesterday appointed by the police com
mission to succeed himself. The mo-
tion for Hammel's appointment was
made by Commissioner Mason and met
with no opposition whatever, the thing
having been agreed upon in secret
session of the commission precedent to
the open session.
Chief Hammel also distinguished
himself by making the shortest speech
on record in the city hall under similar
circumstances. He said: "Bentlemen,
thank you"
The commission revoked the transfer
OF the saloon license of G. T.. Bowe
from 1450h San Fernando street to 318
South Spring street. 1t seems that the
Los Angeles Brewery company owns
the license in question. Attorney Wal
ter Haas represented the protesting
property owners and John w. Mitchell
appeared for the petitioner. On motion
of Commissioner Johnson the license
was revoked.
A. G. Broadway was granted permits
sion to take over billiard and pool
room license at 1856 East Fifty-third
street. 1t is said that gambling games
have been running in this place under
the management of the former pro-
prietor. Chief Hammel promised to
see that the place is conducted in an
orderly manenr.
B. Ballerino, whose name became no.
torious in connection with the crib
district several months ago, applied
for a license to conduct a billiard hall
at 4O4 Nigger alley. Ballerino made
similar request few days before the
city election, but the old board would
not give him the coveted permission.
