JUDGE CHAR14ES SWA1NE
been presented by its special commit
tee of investigation The speaker was
authorized TO appoint seven managers
to present the case to the senate and
conduct the impeachment proceedings
before that body.
This action was the elimination of a
debate which has been in progress for
over a week. and which has developed
partisan feeling and personal vituper
alton. The first vote, that to table the
first three articles, those relating to
the Justification of expenses. went
against Judge Swayne by the narrow
margin of five votes. This was regarded
as the test vote, as the charge regard
ing expenses was the only one con-
CURED in by the members of the COM
mittee signing the minority report.
The motion to table these articles was
lost, 100 to 165. Twenty-four Republi-
cans voted with the Democrats
against tabling and three Democrs s
voted with the Republicans to table.
On roll call these three articles were
adopted. Articles four and five. relating
to the free use of a private car by
Judge Swayne, were made the subject
of a separate vote and adopted. Like
action followed with regard to articles
six and seven. charging him with nom
residence in his district This was the
last roll call. as when articles eight,
nine, 10 and IL, relating to the Davis
Belden contempt case, and articles II,
relating to the O'Neal contempt case.
were declare dadopted on viva voce
votes.
The last time that the house voted
to present articles of impeachment was
in 1876, when it voted the impeach-
ment of w. w. Belknap. secretary of
war under President Grant.

sonal matter into state paper and
into proposed legislation. in such a
manner as gratuitiously to cast refiec-
ton upon the character of the press of
the state, as whole. was uncalled for,
unwarranted and unjustified; and it
further
Resolves. That the position taken
by Governor Pennypacker. both in his
message and in his proposed bill.

tuition and TO good policy. in that I

unjust. in that it jeopardizes important

HITCH oYER BIG FIGHT.

San Francisco, Nov 15.-There is a hitch in the arrangements for the pro 44seA Fitzsimmons-o 'Briep, fight, aud tife wrangle may develop into a war between the local promoters that may eventually close down the game here The match Is made. so far as Fitz is concerned, but the O'Brien end of 1t has not been satisfied and unless Phil adelphia Jack breaks faith with an- other local promoter Manager James Coffroth may be compelled to find some other opponent for Fltzsimmons.
 Before 0'Brien beat Al Kaufman here last month he gave his word to Promoter Alex Greggains that if he won he would make his next ring ap- pearance here under Greggains's aus pices. In the meantime Coffroth signed Fftzsimmons to meet the Quaker next month at his open air arena at Colma. Coffroth of late has been refused per mits for fistic shows in Frisco. It was Greggains's plan to match O'Brien against some good man at his club in December.
 T know nothing of this Fitzsim. mons-0'Brien match except what I see in the papers" said Greggains yester. day. "I do know that O'BrIen has pledged his word to fight before my club next month. and I don't think h. will go back on his word. have not yet selected his opponent.

THE CRIDIRON
HOLY CROSS
 IS ANGRY
Misleading Stories Sent Out About Games Played Mike hurphy's Appeal to Pennsy.

Statements in a New York papel charging Holy Cross with undue rough. ness in its game against Syracuse Sat, urday are indignantly refuted by Holy Cross men. The Worcester Telegram has the following on the affair, Louis Hinkey being, of course, the official mentioned as "Hinckley":
 The students of Holy Cross college, as well as the manager, coach and cap- tain of the football squad, are greatly incensed over the report in New York paper stating that the students of Mt St James were doing the rough house act Saturday against Syracuse, and that it was probable that the two would not meet on the gridiron again.
 Graduate Manager William Welch has written to the Syracuse manager and also to the New York paper to find out the reason for the article. He stated that he was not at the game and that even from the Associated Press reports there was not even the sem. blance of roughness.
 Coach Cavanaugh said that the as- sertion was the most absurd he ever heard, and that there had not been a complaint at any moment in the game. He also stated that from the arrival of the Worcester players they were ac- corded the best of treatment, and that good feeling prevailed between the teams.
 The players treated the team as gen. tlemen and complimented the men for aggressiveness and clean work. 'In the whole game there were only two penalties given, first when Holy Cross was Offside, and again when Syracuse offended likewise"
 Coach Frank w. Cavanaugh was likewise speaking to the officials, Hincley of Yale and Wright of Colum bia, and neither hinted to rough play. ing
 Captain George Connor laughed when he was shown the article and stated that far from any trouble be- tween the teams, the good feeling has been intensified after the game Satur- day. He said: We could not be used better and we had no occasion for rough work"
 Some of the players said that some representative of Amherst must have sent in the report to the New York paper, and Graduate Manager Welch is endeavoring to find out the man.

BOWLING.
HIGH SCORES 4
 AT WOOSTER
The New Palace on Bank Street Creating Talk All Over New England -
 Bowling Down iE the Ar. cade Last Night.

The sport Is booming at the Wooster palace on Bank street, and the new pool and billiard tables and the seven handsome alleys have been kept con- tinually busy since the opening last Saturday afternoon. Already arrange ments are under way for the organiza- tion of teams and before the season has far advanced some of the best bowlers are coming here to test the new and improved alleys, the reputa- tion of which has gone all through New England. The local bowlers have become enthused over them and games are in progress every evening right up to the closing hours. Spectators are dropping in every night because they ind that 1t is a pleasant place to pass an evening watching the athletic bowl CTS at work. Big scores are being made every evening and to date the following is the record of high scores:
 Allen, 204; Malsch, 215; Bostwick, 216 and 205; Mayhew, POO and 206; Kill bourn, 215; H. l.. Gruman, POI and 221; Itschner, POO, and Olsen, 200.

THE PUGILISTS.
NELSON WILL
 FIGHT TERRY
He Must Have a Big Purse However - Hitch Over Fitzsimmons and OBrien Mill More Fight News.

Notwithstanding that no decision was reached last night, it appears cer- tain that Terrible Terry will get the next fight with Nelson. And there is a strong probability that tbe scene of that interesting conflict will be the re- gently organized Tuxedo Athletic club, in Delaware county, Pa, the promoters of which are Tom ORourke and Billy Recap.
 T like that idea first rate," said No. Ian. T understand that the boys can go twenty rounds there, and that is what the people want. A bout there would draw one of the biggest crowds that ever attended prize fight in this country, and hope it can be arranged. We are certainly willing"
 Nolan and Humphreys will hold an- other conference Thursday night. In the meantime other offers will be con- sidered Nolan said that he hadn't a word to say against the N. A. c. of Philadelphia excepting the size of the place.
 'They offered a purse of $10,000 and a guarantee of 80 per cent of the gate receipts and they are nice people to do business with" he said. If they can get bigger place I'll be willing to talk business with them.'
 Battling Nelson is now in Detroit giving exhibitions with a burlesque show. He is booked over the Empire circuit and is getting $1,5O0 week, and can renew his contract indefinite ly. He will be in New York in about three weeks. Nolan will stay until the end of this week.
 Anyone will admit that we could not afford to give up proposition of $1,500 week to fight for a small purse or in a place that could accommodate only>a comparatively small crowd.' said Nolan. We can go to California any time, and get a match there and draw the greatest crowd ever.
 q feel that Nelson is now entitled to the best there is to be had from this game. If ever fighter got the worst of it in his climb up he is the man. He has had to work hard for all he got, and in the face of all kinds of opposi- tion. Now he's at the top, and as long as have anything to do with it Pm going to see that he enjoys the fruits of his victory"

MURPHYs PATHETIC APPEAL.

It turns out that in practice at Eaglesmere last summer. Pennsyl- vania's accomplished quarterback. Stevenson. broke a cartilage in his knee. and has been playing under that handicap all season. the fact having been kept quiet until after last Satur- day. The inventive genius of Mike Murphy fixed up a brace for the knee, but there was always the chance of the ieg going bad. AprUpos of Mur- phy. the following remarks. tinKed with pathos. were made by him to fine Pennsylvania players between halves: "Boys. you may go out and be beaten by Harvard in this half. but remember your mothers who are watching you. Remember your sisters and your sweethearts. and think of them ssery time Harvard gains an inch. IF you haven't mothers. sisters or swret- hearts. then play for me. for you won't have me with you long"

AN OLD STORY.

Amherst, Nov 15.-The charge In a Boston newspaper under a Hanover date line, in which it is alleged that playing field was watered on the night preceding the Dartmouth-Amherst game. does not raise any indignation hereabouts. The assertion is one orig. inally introduced in the west, where there might have been some reason for the charge. By the means of long cleats it Is claimed that Amherst men had decided advantage Saturday, but no punts were caught by means of these contriyances nor did any of the Amherst lipemen bore through their opponents feet first. As an excuse for Dartmouth's failure to accomplish the watered field story may be as good as any other. In the at- tempt to be original, however, the fathers of the yarn failed and thus some of the force of the story is lost.

NO REFEREE YET.

New Haven. Nov 15.-One Of the leading Yale football officials said last night that Evarts Wrenn of Harvard would be the umpire in the Yale Princeton game. all sides agreeing finally on him after lot of consulta- tions. There had been no agreement on the referee for this game and this same official declared that he did not know who would be finally selected. In his judgment McClung of Lehigh would very likely. be the referee. but Princeton was opposed to him, aI- though Princeton hadn't offered any name for referee. Mcclung had been proposed by Yale.
