by Mayor Schmitz- He claims that the
city is under legal obligations to pro-

endanger life. To do this he declares
it is obliged 10 use it's own police force
or appeal to the Governor for troops in

disorder were rampant in the city in
the form OF vast horde of soldiers
other than such military aid as has
been hereinbefore mentioned
The Mayor, well knowing of such
disorders and tumuIt," he continues,
not only neglected to suppress the dis
orders, but on the. contrary aided and

counseled and advised and even COM
manded them and had them act sub

Season.
Special Sporting Service.

Tribune Special Sporting Service.
ITHACA. May 26.-The Cornell var
sity football team will probably play
the University OF Chicago eleven this
fall, but not at Chicago. as announced
by Coach Stagg Although the under
graduates are so enthusiastic over the
prospects OF meeting last years West
ern championship team on the gridlron
as to want the game played regardless
OF time or place, the opinion of tho
athletic council Is that the contest
should take place either at ithaca or
some neutral Eastern point. possibly
New York City. on November 10.
President Irvine's Opinion.
In speaking of the proposed game
this morning Prof. Frank Irvine. presi-
dent of the Cornell athletic council,
said. Some time ago Manager Ward
we'll of the varsity eleven wrote let
ter to Coach Stage. asking II there was
any possibility of game between
Cornell and Chicago this fall. Mr.,
Stagg wired back Immediately, Yes;
see letter This letter has never ar
rived, and consequently the heads OF
the two teams have never come to any
definite agreement; but the game prob
ably will be played. When Columbia
announced her intention of dropping
FOOTBALL, cornell began directly TO cast
about for a suitable opponent TO fill the
place OF the New Workers on the Cor
nell schedule. Chicago was decided
upon as the most desirable, Cornell,
however. Will not go to Chicago to
play. Ithaca or some neutral point
In the East must be agreed upon or the
game Will fall through. Chicago
really ought to come to us this year,
because we went there In '99 and never
had n return game"
Time and other circumstances seem
SO opportune that 1t is almost certain
that the negotiations Will not fail.
Cornell and Chicago are both anxious
TO secure so-called "big games" 1t Is
natural, therefore. that they should
meet. especially as Chicago has been
jumping at the chance to come East
even before Michigan clinched her
game with Pennsylvania. The aboli-
ton of the big conference games In
the West placed Chicago's eleven In q
precarious position. Unless the team
secured at least one big game 1t Is GER
tain that 1t would have secured little
support from the student body. either
moral or financial. even II the fault
did not lie with the football players,
The corollary is that the securing OF
game with Cornell Will save Coach
Stagg to the Maroon university.
When Chicago played Cornell In 1893
the Midway university eleven won by a
score Of II to 6.
