Stagg's intention to keep any OF the regulars
out of the game for fear of injuries, as he
thinks they need the work.
The regulars played against the freshman
team for three-quarters of an hour until dark
ness called u halt. They showed improvement
in their offense. brushing aside the freshmen
at will. The defensive work of the team also
has improved and the freshmen were able to
make their yards only a few times.

Shuttle had his ankle hurt in last Saturday S

that his injury would prove only temporary
However, the ankle has refused to improve and
a further wrench has put Shuttle out of the
practice. He is hobbling around with a
stick, barely touching one foot to the ground
Ordered to Rest.
Trainer Fitzpatrick has given orders that
Shuttle should take chances of further In.
jury to his ankle. and has ordered that the
big guard walk just little possible for
the next day Or two. Fitzpatrick refuses to say
whether or not he can have Shuttle in con-
dition by the end of the week. but it looks
hopeless.
Should Shuttle not be in the lineup Saturday
it would require a shift among tine center trio.
Clement would go in either at center or guard
In the former event Shultz would fill Shulte's
position. This would be necessitated by Loves
showing last Saturday, when Ohio State team
went thru him repeatedly for gains.

JOHNSON STRONG
AGAINST OUTLAW
President Of American League
Opposes Chicago's Purchase
of Player Sebring.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
Chicago Nov. 16.-President Ban B. John
of the American league returned Yesterday
from northern Wisconsin with three deer. He
left last night for Cincinnati.
President Murphy of the Chicago Nationals,
who has purchased and signed Sebring, believes
he reads his title clear to that player for the
seasons of 190G.7-S and the contract has been
promulgated by President Pulliam of the Ma
tional league. Notwithstanding this, stories
continue to emanate from Williamsport and
New York that Sebripg has signed for three
years, beginning 1907 and that he will not
leave the outlaws this year. That phase of the
matter, however, is not serious as the de-
terminati ton of Johnson to be shown.
The American league president has a Viv1t
recollection of hearing President Herman OF
Cincinnati denounce Sebring in uncertain
terms and Henry T. KilIlea, former stock
holder in the Boston Americans, who was IL
| town today, so remembers the conversation.
Johnson says Sebring is contract jumper
pure and simple, and insists that the baseball
law be upheld in the case if it covers the

WHY No Indemnity.

II w Dennison and other members
of the japanese peace party were 10 Den
yer Yesterday. In speaking Of the re-
suits of the peace mission Mr.. Dennison,
American adviser to the japanese peace
envoys. said ave did not insist upon
an indemnity for the simple reason that
our position did not permit OF insistence.
II we had bad a fleet in the Baltic sea or
any armv before st. Petersburg or at the
0ates of Moscow, We might have enjoyed
the same advantage that the Germans
possessed when they occupied Paris.
They got big indemnity from France
merely as an inducement to 60 away.
An indemnity, in international affairs,
YOU know, is not so much payment TOR
past losses as a guarantee that future
losses will be prevented. But our fleets
and armies were many thousands OF
miles from European Russia. We could,
it is true. have renewed the war and
captured VladivostOk, and got, perhaps,
in a position to collect al indemnity; but
it would have cost US as much as the In
demnity was worth, not to speak oil loss

other faction favoring his retention. Mr.

quested. He preached sermon Sunday
night, in which he gave his answer to the
charges preferred against him. II is
understood that the charges include ex-
travsgant living and failure to pay debts,
neglect of his pastoral duties and failure
OF the church TO prosper under his minis

could pay his debts if The church would
pay him his salary. As to the other
charges, he shifts the responsibility onto
the officers OF the church.
