At the conclu- sion of the hearing decision was re- served.
 Kelley, who is on bail, was present in the court room with Roosevelt, and F. Meredith Blagden, a coxswain of the Harvard crew in the recent race with Cambridge, who was also said to be one of the group of Harvard students on the night in question:
 Patrolman F'raher, who was recently released fro mthe city hospital, where he was under treatment for Q broken nose and other lacerations, was one of the first witnesses to testify for the government He stated that no blows were struck, that he was tripped up. and was injured by falling against a settee.

Democratic Judiciary Ticket.

New York, Oct 10.-The democracy of New York county tonight nominat- ed judiciary ticket that was seeming ly intended to be compromise between the adherents of old-llne democrats and of candidates favored by the Independ- ence league. The ticket, however, has not proved entirely satisfactory to the followers of MT Hearst, and a state- ment issued by the league late tonight hints that the Tammany ticket may not be endorsed in full.
 It was understood that the league wished to be represented on the ticket by five candidates acceptable to that party, in which event the league would expect to support the nominations made. Only two of to-night's candi- dates can, however, be said to be rep resentative of the league. They are Judge Seabury and John F. Ford, nam ed for the supreme court. Recorder Golf, however, is believed not to be ob- jectionable to the league.
 After the adjournment of the demo- cratic convention tonight there was a meeting or tnS eXecutlVe coHlHllltee oL the league, at which to-night's ticket was discussed in detail. The following statement was issued from the league headquarters:
 Tt has been the desire of the execu- tive committee of the league to secure the nomination of non-partisan judi ciary ticket. The ticket named by the democratic convention tonight con tains tho names of some good men and the names of some men not satisfac- | tory
 "The Independence league will watch the action of the republican convention with interest"
 No one at league headquarters would add anything to the above statement.

Gov ernor Taft announced tonight that the general will return home on Saturday on the battleship Louisiana, with Gov ernor Taft and Assistant Secretary of State Bacon. The affairs of Cuba will then be left in the hands of Governor Magoon and General J. Franklin Bell. In explaining this change of plans, Gov ernor Taft said:
 General Funston was summoned on hurry call from the Pacific coast be- cause he was well acquainted with many of the insurgent chiefs here, and it was thought he could aid us. as he did greatly. in bringing the men in arms to an agreement. General Fun ston was put temporarily command of
 the troops in Cuba merely as a con- Yenience until General Bell should arr rive General Funston, Mir. Bacon and myself, with Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Ba- con and our secretaries, are returning to our permanent duties"
 Governor Taft's confidence in the i chief of the general stairs ability to carry out the programme the governor has initiated has resulted in the deci- sion to continue him in the island. Many Cubans of the faction of Mende2 Capote and others who organized the moderate party belong, were outspoken against General Funston, alleging that he had deserted them in the war to throw off the yoke of Spain. Governor Taft did not take cognizance of this bitterness, as he was familiar with the circumstances under which General Funston, at that time, returned to the United States. Funston was then i'll

E0rmHily InauBurateO Against London
 Magazine by Ex-Tammany Chief.
 Dublin, Oct. 1O.-Richard Croker to- day formally inaugurated the libel suit which will bring to a definite issue the question whether he used his position as chief of Tammany Hall for purposes of financial profit. The suit is against a London magazine, which publishes in its current number a scathing article against the growth of so-called Tam manyism" in England, incidentally de- tailing in alleged chapters from New York the operations of Tweed and Croker. The latter's affidavit makes a sweeping denial of any wrongdoing while head of Tammany Hall, and es- pecially denies using the organization for purposes of extortion or personal profit The case will be tried before an Irish jury, and it is expected will attract much attention. owing to the issue over the honesty of Tammanys S administration. That q notable array of lawyers will be detained is indicated by the position of Mr. Croker's coun- sel. James w. M Campbell, K C., who represents Dublin university in the house of commons, and who was sue cessively solicitor general and attorney general for Ireland under the late Bal four government.

NATIONALS WIN THE SECOND
OVERWHELM AMERICANS BY
 SCORE OF SEVEN TO ONE.

Between Nine and Ten Thousand PcO-
 pie Bundled from Head to Foot, Brave
 the Rigors of weather to See the
 COntest--With Frost Ripping Fingers
 and Toes Perfect Baseball Is an Im-
 possibility.
 Chicago, Oct 1o.-In the second game of the worlds championship series to- day the Chicago National league team took decisive revenge for yesterdays defeat when they vanquished the American league team on the latter's grounds, to 1.
 Both White and Owen, the latter re- placing the former in the fourth inning, were batted freely, and the American league teams errors also helped to in- crease the Nationals score. Reulbach, on the contrary, was in fine form and allowed the opposing batsmen only two hits. The weather was bitterly cold, the mercury lowering at or below the freezing point all afternoon. As was the case yesterday, few flakes of snow fell but they were not needed to add to the general discomfort.
 Between nine and ten thousand en- thusiasts, bundled from head to foot, braved the rlgors of the weather, but they by no means filled all the seats.
 With frost-nipplng fingers and toes, perfect baseball was an impossiblity. The practice of both teams was ex- eeediugly ragged, the cold hands of the infielders refusing to cling to the ball. while the outfielders missed many flies which were blown out of reach by the wind. In actual play the form was better
 The Nationals started the run getting in the second inning. Captain Chance received an ovation as he stepped to the plate. but failed to hit three good ones Then Stelnfeldt sent scorching single to left. Tinker laid down a per feet bunt and beat 1t to first Steinfeldt reaching second. Evers rolled an easy one down to Isbell, who in his haste to make a double play tossed the ball into left field. Steinfeldt scored, Tinker took third and Evers perched on sec ond. White deliberately allowed Kling to walk, but Reulbach sacrificed Tinker home and Evers scored moment later on Hoffman's safe drive. King. how ever, was out at the plate. The half closed with three runs over the plate and the enthusiasm of the National league teams supporters, somewhat modest after yesterdays defeat, broke loose with a vigor which took nc thought of sore throats.
