Syracuse, N. y, June 14.-Professor
Frederick D. Losey, after conflict
with Chancellor James R.TDay of SYRIA
cuse university, has handed in his res
ignation and given his opinion of the
chancellor. The trouble arose over the
fact that Professor Losey wanted man
kept back from graduating for being
deficient in the department Of rhetoric
and public speaking, Of which he is
professor. The chancellor directed that
the man be given his degree and told
Professor Losey that he had absolute
power in the matter and did not have
to consult the faculty at ALL Said Pro-
fessor Losey:
What will be Of most interest to
the faculties Of the university. and to
the public in this whole affair, espe-
cially in the light Of the chaneellor's
recent public utterances, is his frank
statement regarding his powers.
81 had known that he possessed and
exercised over both students and facul-
ty in all administrative and disciplin-
airy matters practically absolute power;
that the salary of every employee Of the
university is determined by hil.l with
out the embarrassment of conforming
to any rule or schedule; that students
whom the faculty had voted to dismiss
from college for deficiency in schol-
arship had been, reinstated by him at
will; that he had expelled students on
proof of dishonesty or immortality and
|.sast esed then ! 81 good stanaiag withie

Plainly.

journal Special Service.
Syracuse, N. Y, June 14-In his an
7nual address before the annual conven-
ton Of the Central Episcopal diocese,
Bishop Charles Taylor Olmsted de-
Clared:
The Church of Jesus Christ should
not be in alliance either with individ-
suals or corporations whose principles
and L corrupt. The church can never
gain by getting wealth which paralyzes
her proper functions.
THE moral earthquakes that have
occurred in the commercial and fnan-
cial world have doubtless caused much
suffering to those who stood on the
line of their action, but the effect of
them will unquestionably be wholesome
in the end. Nothing but such rough
shaking could bring to the surface
the faults that lie beneath, and nothing
but publicity will prevent their contin-
uance in the future. And is it not time
for the church to speak plainly about
these things9
"ItE is not wise to be rash or hys-
terical in our utterances concerning
this or any other matter. There is a
good deal of excuse, undoubtedly, for
a feeling of ~pessimism, as one thing
after another is disclosed, showing that
men can be just as cruel, just as re-
lentless, just as ready to despoil their
tho only difference 5b@ tween these days
and the savage days of the past is a
difference Of method rather than Of

amounted to $3.50.

BASE BALL NOTES.

Fred Clarke has seen his last day as Pirate all right-until next sea- son.
 Presidents Pulliam and Johnson each predicts that the team represent ing his own league will win the worlds championship.
 Wid Conroy did some splendid throwing from the outfield toward the end of the season. It had not only distance but accuracy.
 Proficient as the White Sox were this season at run getting, the Cubs were more so. The White Sox made 4S-100 of run to every hit and the Cubs 53-100.
 Devlin hit much better this yeat than last. He batted .246 last year. and this season improved his per centage probably fifty points. Chase was another who produced much i'm proved stick work. This year he was a 300 hitter all the way.
 Johnstone will probably umpire be- hind the plate in the first of the worlds series in Chicago to-day. with O'Laughlin looking after the bases. A clean. sportsmanlike series may be looked for. The New Yorks and Phil. adelphias set a good example in that regard last fall.
 Clark Gritfith says his men have nc complaint whatever to make over there being no series with the New York Nationals. When we pulled out of Chicago last time." Grin ob. served.

WILL yILLANovA COME?

There is some talk of Manager Mike" Slayin bringing the Villa nova eleven, but it is doubtful If the students will be seen in this city. Manager Slavin's brother. Sal" as we'll as Joe" Walsh, Dan" Buck ley and William Spain are with Villa nova, consequently such a contest would be appreciated in this city. But the expense of bringing the col legians here would be heavy and un- less the All-Waterbury management has made money before the first week in November 1t is not at all likely a chance will be taken of dropping a roll by having villanova come to this city. The Acorns of Bridgeport evidently have a case of cold feet for they have sent word 'f the manager of the Waterbury team that the Park City aggregation will not play the series of games already arranged. Last year the local eleven gave Danny Walkers world beaters a severe trouncing and perhaps they are afraid they will strike a snag again this year.

THE GRlDIRON
THE TEAMS TAKE
 TO NEW RULES
Comparison of the Scores Last Year and hi, Year Other Foot
 ball News.

Comparisons of scores made Tn football games this fall and for corresponding period last year show the scoring results to be practically the same. So far as these scores are q criterion the apprehension that the new rules would make gaining so diff ficult that there would not be enough scoring to make the game interest ing is groundless. The new game makes one means of ground gaining more difiicult, that being straight line bucking, but 1t also widens the general scope of ground gaining. scores so far this year indicate that what has been taken away by the ten-yard rule and corrollary measures in increasing the difficulty of line bucking has been made up for in the encouragement of and provisions for a more open and more varied game.
 As between the relative weakening or strengthening of offense as com pared to defense under the new rules, 1t is hard to say. The scores this season taken in the aggregate do not show that the smaller teams have done any more in the accumulation of points against big adversaries than they did last year. Indeed, ten early. games taken at random this year and ten last year show that the smaller teams have made fewer points than last year. On the other hand, considering the matter indi- vidually, the records of ten teams show that the smaller teams have done better this year in holding down their stronger opponents. The matter of showing of the strong and the weak, one against the other, is on the whole balanced in about the same proportion as last year.
 The ten teams included in this reckoning are Harvard, Yale, Prince ton, Dartmouth, Pennsylvania, West Point, the Indians, Cornell, Brown and Lafayette. Of this list Prince ton, Dartmouth, Pennsylvania, liar. yard, Brown and West Point have scored fewer points against oppo- nents than for corresponding mum Der of games last year. The totals for the two years follow:
 z 1905-Harvard 50. opponents o; Yale 43, opponents 0; Princeton S6 opponents 6; Pennsylvania 62. op ponents 10; Cornell 45, opponent' II; Carlisle 134, opponents O Brown 40, opponents 5; Dartmouth 52. opponents O; Lafayette 36. op ponents o; West Point 36, opponent | 6. ,
