SCULPTOR DESTROYS
 FIGURES OF ANGELS
DISPUTE As TO WHETHER THEY SHOULD BE MASCULINE
 OR FEMININE.

GutzOn BOrgIum, the Creator, So Dis
 gusted at Clergymen Who, in Pres-
 eRce of Many Images of Purely Re-
 iiGiOus and Spiritual Character, See
 Nothing but sSex-With Chisel and
 MaIlet He Smashes to Bits the An
 gels of AnnunciatiOn and Resurrec- tfOn in Great Cathedral of St. John,
 the Divine, New York.
 New York. Oct. 1O-Gutzon Borglum, sculptor of the Angel of the Annuncia- tion and of the Angel of the Resurrec- ti0n, which were intended to have adorned the walls of the great cathe- dral of St. John the Divine at Morning side Heights, announced to-day that he had destroyed the two figures. MT. Bor- glum did so because of a dispute which had arisen as to whether the figures should be masculine or feminine. The sculptor had created his conceptions of the two angels in the form of wom- en but his work had been sharply crit icized an that score. .g..
 Mir. Borglum said to-day that he had received a final opinion of one of the church authorities that the figures must be masculine, and he added:
 T went to the cathedral yesterday and with a chisel and mallet smashed the angels into bits. Although I have done nothing in the past year into which I have put more care and thought, and although I felt like the veriest vandal in thus completely wrecking what knew to be works of beauty and power, I did so to put a stop to a useless discussion and to pre- vent any use being made of the figures other than had been originally intend ed.
 T am absolutely astounded that any clergyman could stand in the presence of thirty or forty images of a purely re ligious and spiritual character and see nothing in them but sex. And now that the whole unpleasant matter is over am just as sure as I ever was that the feminine side of our race must ever continue to be our chief source of artis tic inspiration, and will so remain, ab- solutely unaltered by all pedantic con. troversies."

All Day and Night Taken Up Examin-. 5. r.. ing Proxies.

Toledo, O., Oct 1O,--No directors were chosen at the annual meeting Of the Wabash railroad to-day. The ses- sions with the exception of two brief reeesses lasted from 3 o'clock in the
 morning until 11:15 tonight, almost the entire time being taken up with the examination of proxies Although no figures had been given out by the in- spectors of election, it is believed that the vote to be taken the. first thing to- morrow will show that MT. Gould has behind him about $22,0Oo,O0O of the bonds, and that MT. Ramsey has in the neighborhood of $2,000, 900.
 This makes certain that six men nonl- mated by the Gould faction as directors representing the bondholders will bs elected. These men are Russell Sage. Winslow S. Pierce, R. c. CloWry, ID. 1T. Welles, w. B. Saunders and R. M. Cal loway. MT. Ramsay has not shown sufficient strength to enable him to hold his seat as a director, and it is generally believed that he is weaker in stock proxies than he is in the bonds.

TABLES ARE JUST REVERSED
ATHLETICS TAKE SECOND CAME IN WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP.

Score 3 to O, Exactly the same as in
 the First Contest--Indian Battery in
 the Points for visitors--strOngIy.
 supported-Gilbert Makes Costly Err
 TOT Giving the Quakers a Lead Which
 They Never ReIinQuish.
 New York, Oct. 10. In the second game of the worlds championship series played here to-day the Philadel- phia champions of the American league defeated the National league champions on the Polo grounds. Yesterday on the Philadelphia grounds McGraW's men defeated Manager Macz's team by a score of 8 to 0, and to-day, when the latter visited this city, they just re- versed the score, shutting out the To- calls. E.%..'
 The story of the game is easily told. The visitors put in their Indian battery, Bender and Schreekengost, against Mc- Ginnity and Bresnahan. The visiting
 
 was McGinnity for two innings. But in the third inning Gilbert made a costly error, which gave the visitors lead which they never relinquished. McGin- nifty was relieved in the latter half of the eighth inning. ..~
 In the third inning Schreck sent a grounder to Gilbert, who threw wildly to first, and the batter was safe. Ben der made a neat sacrifice. Hartsel was an easy out. Lord, the next man up, singled to center, scoring Schreck. Da- wis was thrown out by DahIen and the inning ended. The Philadelph had scored, however, and the crowd called loudly for the local team to rally.
 There was a ding-dong game of fast plays until the seventh inning, when 1t looked as though the home players might tie the score, but Donlin got as far as third only to be left there. He had made a two-base hit and reached third on a long fly to right field. This was the nearest to scoring New York managed to get.
 Monte Cross struck out at the begin ming of the PhiladelphianS half of the eighth inning, but Schreekengost sin gled to left. Browne made beautiful long running catch of Bender's foul fly. Hartsel then doubled to left, but the re- lay throw from Mertes through Devlin | to the plate was dropped by Bresnahan and Schreckengost scored. This was another run made on an error. Then Lord singled, bringing Hartsel in with the final run of the game. <..'. In the latter half of the eighth inning the visiting team was charged with it's | first misplay. Devlin had singled and Continued on Poge Five.) -

President Eliot of Harvard Declares it
 is Difficult to Bring About Reform
 Even Through the Very Men Who
 Have Long Known About the Exist

 sible for Them
 Cambridge, Mass, Oct, 1O.-Referring to President Roosevelt's talk with the men representing college football at the White House yesterday, President Charles w. Eliot, of Harvard univer- sity, to-day said;
 ''The president, with characteristic vigor, has tackled hard job. It is hard to bring about a reform even through the very men who have long known about the existing evils and have been largely responsible for their continuance. His only chance is to con- vince them that the evils have become intolerable,"
 When President Eliot was asked if he and President Roosevelt had talked upon LI6 SupJecl OL Cledllef 4oolpdll He stated that they had some conversation at the last commencement, when MT. Roosevelt was in Cambridge For many years in his annual report President Eliot has criticised football as played in the leading American colleges, and he hoped that President Roosevelt's ac- ton may bring college athletic authori- ties to see that a real change is de- manded in football as it is now played.

CASTRO CHANGES FRONT.
Repeated Advances to Resume Friendly
 Relations With France.

Relations With France.
 Paris, Oct. 10.--Since President Cas- tros return to Caracas from Los Teques lie has made repeated advances to M. Taigny, tha French charge d'af- faires, for the, purpose of resu1ning friendly intercourse, apparently in tending to ignore his previous offens- i've action in refusing to deal with the governmental France through M. Taigny, The latter acting on the in structions from Paris to require the withdrawal of the offensive action, de- clines to meet the advances or resume intercourse with the Venezuelan gov- ernment until Venezuela complies with the French request to withdraw the offensive action. The situation thus is reversed M. Taigny now refusing to deal with President Castro, instead of the. Venezuelan president refusing to deal with M. Taigny. In the meantime President Castro has made efforts to adjust matters directly with the French Cable company without the CO., operation of M. Taigny, but this was counteracted by the definite under standing arrived at between the gov ernment and the company to the ef- feet that no action shall be taken ex- cept through the channels of the French legation at Caracas which is under M. Taigny.
 The officials here do not regard the situation as critical or pressing, and therefore are content to await the re- suit of the conferences of Ambassador Jusserand with the authorities at Washington, which are designed to de- ternine the most effective means of dealing with the question.

 Passes Away.

FnsSeS Away
 Westfield, N. Y, Oct. 1O.-- S. Fred Nixon, speaker of the New York state assembly, died at his home to-day. He was taken ill short time ago with what seemed to be appendicitis. Simple methods seemed to relieve the trouble and it was thought at first that an op- eration would be unnecessary.
 MT. Nixon apparently was improving when a sudden turn for the worse came. An operation was performed and he seemed to rally from it. Since the operation his recovery had been re- tarded only by the unwillingness of the wound to heal.
 Early today after a consultation an anaesthetic was administered and the wound was re-opened and drained. MT. Nixon died at 4:50 p. m.
