PRESIDENT WHEELER'S COM
 MENTS.
 Berkeley, Cal, Nov. 29.-When in- formed last night of the action of Co., lumbia university in reference to foot ball President Benjamin Ide Wheeler, of the University of California, said:
 '"rhe game of football as it is played on the coast must be made over or it will have to be given up entirely. A slight changing of the rules for the pur- pose of eliminating slugging will not suffice. An entirely new game must be devised.
 "The present game of collegiate foot ball has passed it's usefulness. Efforts in the past to improve the game have only served to make it more complex. The new game must be so formed as to be easily understood and capable of be- ing played by the average healthy Stu dent without long period of training" WESLEYAN PRESIDENTS VIEWS.
 Middletown, Nov. 29.-President B. P. Raymond, of Wesleyan university, said to-day that he has received no commit nication as yet from the faculty of New York university or from any other source looking to a conference regard ing the abolition or reform of football. He added the following brief state ment:
 "In my opinion, there ought to be radical modification of the rules of the game, and something ought to be done to relieve it of it's perils and frauds. am not familiar enough with the game to go into details, and believe that only an expert should do that and decide what changes ought to be made.
 By the term 't'frauds' President Ray mond explained that he referred to foul and vicious playing, gambling on the result of the game and playing of professionals on college teams" He was convinced, he concluded, that some thing must be done to raise the game from it's present status.

A Merry Skating Party.

that he would make this affidavit be
fore the trial. but. thinking that per-
haps all would be cleared without
this statement. he said nothing. He
declared that not one word regard
ing the crime had been spoken to
his brothers or his attorneys. and
that no one knew anything about 1t
until he made this confession.
This affidavit for Andrew Perry
was read last night in the district
court by Attorney Carnahan for the
defense, in making a motion for a
new trial for three of the boys-Ben.
Warren and George. Mr.. Canahan
read afidavits of the three declaring
that they knew nothing of the mat
ter until, Andrews confession, and
that they had testified truthfully on
the stand. In view of this new evl-
dence and other exceptions taken by
the defense to the courts rulings
and the jury actions, new trial
was asked for.
Attorney Carnahan stated that the
attorneys for the defense had all
along believed that the stolen goods
had been secreted on the ranch by
people who wanted to get the Perry
boNS out of the country; that they
had been honest in this belief, now
shattered by Andrew $ confession.
Attorney Wheeler for the prosecu-
tion followed Mr. Carnahan and made
strong plea for a new trial for
the three boys. Andrew Perry's con-
fession had every evidence in his
opinion of being a true statement
and that therein the three other de-
PENDANTS were exonerated.
Judge Stevens statement in reply
to the attorneys was listened TO with
the greatest interest. He said that
the case presented a unique proposi-
ton. Here. after the four boys had
been found guilty of burglary and
ready for the passing OF the sentence,
one Of the boys comes forward with
confession declaring that he alone
was the guilty one and would save
his brothers from punishment, and
that they knew nothing and that his
attorneys knew nothing of his guilt
until March 20. after the trial ant

we find that this same defendant
who now comes forward and swear'
that he is the guilty one, was not al
lowed to testify at the trial, while
all the other boys did testify. L

could. as a last chance to save thre'
of the defendants, make this state
ment. All would be cleared If pos
sible: then. if that was impossible
one would take the responsibility an'
let the others go free.
At this point the attorneys aske'

Tie judge would not give the per
mission. stating that they had had
plenty of chances to explain.
Judge Stevens stated that fairer
trial had never been given defendants
ip his court. They had been ar
raigned for trial in the district court
three times. The first time the jury
disagreed. 81 believed them guilty
then, declared Judge Stevens. The
second trial they were acquitted. 81

judge, and at this trial l believed

PENDANTS is guilty as charged. and the
jury has convicted them. Il believe
they have testified falsely at every
trial" he declared, Their reputa-
tion had not been good. every instruc-
ton asked for by the defense had
been given the jury and the verdict
rendered was just and lawful one
1t would be an injustice to the coun-
ty and to the defendants themselves
to grant new trial, and in conclud-
ing he declared that he overruled the
motion for new trial and would
pass sentence.
The attorneys for the defense then
made a motion to stay the passing Of
the sentence. The Judge promptly
overruled this motion and the de-
PENDANTS were ordered to stand up
and sentence was passed upon them
He stated that they were all tried
as one; that he believed each was
equally as guilty as the other. He
said to them that in his mind they
had added perjury to their crimes.
He ordered that they be confined in
the state penitentiary at Canon City
for a term of not less than five years
or more than seven years.
The attorneys took exceptions and
announced that an appeal would be
taken to the supreme court. A stay
of execution in the case of three

In his last argument before the
judge. Attorney Carnahan stated that
Andrew Perry had not been placed
on the stand because he had served
term in the reformatory.
The judge stated that he appre-
Gated the efforts of the attorneys in
behalf of their clients and that the
boys had been very ably defended.
The court room was crowded dur
ing the session and the keenest in.
terest was displayed. The action OF
the court met with the general ap-
proval, as it is the general opinion
that if one is guilty all the boys are
guilty.

In the ''Pen" Andrew Perry Says
tie Did the "JObS."

In an effort to save his three broth
ers from the penitcntiary, Andrew
Perry, one of the four Perry brother,
convicted of burglary and grand lar
ceny, made confession yesterday.
declaring that he alone robbed the
store of the White Mercantile Com
pany, and that his brothers knew no.
thing whatever about the robbery.
He took Under sheriff Hardy to
various places in the neighborhood
of the carpenter shop, under which
n lot of stolen goods had been found.
and showed him where all the goods
stolen from the store, which had not
been found, were located. The un-
dersherif. took charge of the goods
and they were identified by the White
Mercantile Company.
In his affidavit presented to the
court last night Andrew Perry stated
that on November 21 he left the
Perry boys ranch for Grand juno

on arriving in town he went to the
White Mercantile Company and
looked at some goods or made a small
purchase, as testified to by Mr. Crop
sey. He further declared that, at
about II O'Clock on the night of the
21st. he went alone TO the side door
of the White Mercantile Company's
store, which opens on the alley, and
with an augur which he brought from
home, bored through the door and
removed the lock.
Entering the store, he proceeded
to carry out a number of guns, a
large amount of ammunition, and
three overcoats and other goods. He
said that he made three trips to the
store, carrying goods and secreting
them under the carpenter shop. in
culverts and in other places about
town.
Then, taking a number of guns,
he started out horseback for his
home in the Plateau valley, arriving
there before day. He secreted the
guns and goods where they were
found by the officers, and be states
that his brothers knew nothing what
ever of his actions or that the goods
were hidden on the place.
Andrew Perry further stated that
he had a grievance against John G
Cropsey of the White Mercantile
Company, because at one time when
making a purchase in the store he
believed that Cropsey cheated hin
out OF 25c, and that the burglary wa'
