rant at Broadway and Fort 10th street and

morning with such violence that both the
men were wrapped in heavy bandages when
they we're arraigned later in the morning in

who said he was Conrad Eimhell Of Mont
clair, Nj, was so severely eaten about the
head that ne had to Re taken to the New

was a Diamond broker, of \ East Thirty
second street, at present flying under the
name of David Peters, escaped with less
serious injuries.
Miss Pierson appeared in court as COM
plainant against the men. She testified
that as she vas going home from her en-
ployment about . O'Clock in the morning
the two men accosted her at Broadway and
Thirty-ninth street. She said they made
several facctious remarks which she did not
notice. but when one Of them gave her a
deliberate insult she turned on him with
hSr umbrella and knocked him down. When
the other mar intcrfered she treated him
in like me
Magistrate Baker commended the girl
for her brave deferCN and fined the men

in connection with tho Jerome Park reser-

MAYOR URGED TO GRANT 4 Pm
lie HEARING on THE CASE.

rhe Hoard OF Estimate holds Its First
ron Meeting and Passes Important
Nattrrs-RepOr From tn Board 90
Revise the Guys salary sche ule.
rhs Board OF Pa, innate met yesterday
for the first timo since II ndjolrncd for the
summer vacat ION on July 10. The calendar
awaiting the board was a formidable one
but the members Of the board did not
attempt to deal with any Of the important
matters awaiting action.
Further consideration Of the fight OF
the Atlantic Telephone Company to obtain
a franchise was laid over for a week, TO
await the receipt Of the rc:CJrt OF the COM
mittee Of the whole on the proposition
submitted last July by the New York Te!e-
phone Company to pay adequate compen-
sat ion TO the city for tho privileges 1t now
has prov ided il il allowed to have a
monopoly.
The majority Of tho Board OF Estimate
ia in favor Of cont inuinR this single service
II tho city ia properly r~ecDmpensed. An
other reason why the matter was laid oNer
was hat the Board of Estimate since Il
adjourned has been pCtitioned by many
interests to grant a public hearing.
Compt roller Metz got passed his reso-
luton placing the Staten Island lighting
situation in the hands Of a commission.
The commission will consist Of the Comp
troller. the President OF the Board OF Alder
men, the Comptrollcr's engineer. the en-
gineer of the Board Of Estimate, the Presi-
dent of tho Borough of Richmond and the
chief engineer Of light and power of the
Department Of Water Supply, Gas and
Electricity. d,
The report Of the commission appointed
Nv the Mayor in tho spring TO make recon-
mendations TO revise the city's salary list
was submitted yesterday to the Board Of
Estimate. The commission made many
Suggestions, urging changes in the exist
ing methods of classification OF public
positions. and also reporting in favor Of the
elimination of many useless Offices. The
report shows that the city has 1908 en-
ployees, whose salaries foot up to So ,0oS, 253
The Board of Fat innate will go into this
whole matter of revising salaries when IL
takes up the budget rext month.

gle for clean ball on the field.
He has been a faithful fighter
against unfair and bullying methods
and has shown the nerve to call ev-
cry bluff at exactly the right time.
His handling of the New York trou-
bic in August when Brush and Nc
Graw refused permission to enter the
grounds to Umpire tombstone was an
artistic example of fair methods.
His action in the case pleased every
body except Brush and McGraw. who
realized their silly mistake too late,
and tried to throw the blame on Pres
ident Pulliam. The latter emerged
from the test stronger than ever with
the baseball trouble.
The only argument used against
President Pulliam is that he is some
times too hasty about rushing into
print with unnecessary statements on
league topics.
This is a mild fault, indeed. and is
completely overshadowed by his
proved ability as an executive official
and his eminent honesty and fairness.
Mr.. Pulliam refuses to play politics
while occupying his high Office and
that certainly commends him TO the
majority OF baseball men who are sick
of such exhibitions as the reinstate-
ment OF Jack Hayden last summer
simply because the Boston Americans
needed an outfielder
AS stated above. President Pulliam
is absolutely certain of reelection by
a majority. and possibly six votes. and
his term of Office will be extended to
three years. Ii is already decided
who will nominate him and who will
second the nomination and Mr.. Brush
will realize how futile his opposition
is if he knew what magnates had
gladly agreed to put the presidents
name before the league. The little
battle is all over.

football
CHICAGO VS.. MINNESOTA.
Contest Will Be Between Stagg and
Williams, Rather Than Between
the Tennis.

Williams, Rather Than Between
the Teams.
Can Minnesota beat Chicago?
This is the big question now agitat-
ing all football minds
Few people go so far as to deny
the Gophers a chance, but the general
sentiment is that Chicago has the best
chance. Stage himself is somewhat
worried, because he can get no line
on the Gophers' strength.
1t is generally conceded that under
the old rules Minnesota would have a
great chance to beat Chicago. No one
doubts the Gophers' strength at
defensive power.
Stage relies upon his swift back
field to get away from the heavy Co
piers.
The game will not he so much test
of the two teams. as it will be meas
uring of the two coaches, Stage
against Williams.
Minnesota has the material Can
Williams develop it to its utmost pos
sibilities?
DR.. Williams will never again have
such an opportunity to prove his abil'
ity. Many people say. and without
any feeling against Williams. that he
lacks versatility. and that he cannot
get all his own football knowledge
into a team the Way some coaches
can.
Stage is strategist OF the first Or
der. He will have his men ready to
take advantage of any weakness
shown by Minnesota
Minnesota is to certain extent at
a disadvantage this year.
AS much depends upon the assist
ant coach as on the coach Dobie was
Il great factor at the university.
Dobie is no longer with the team. Sig
Harris is a clever and brilliant play
er himself, and he handles his men
with ginger, but lacks the peculiar
quality, which was Dobie's distinguish
ing trait, of being able to give to other
about the game.
Minnesota fortunately did not have
to show any of its trump cards against
Ames. 1t will not have to agains,
Nebraska in all probability.
Stage will have to do lot of guess
ing as to what kind of a game Mime
sofa will play against the Maroons.
Williams, therefore. has a great
chance to keep his best cards for the
big game and to surprise the Maroons
when the play begins.
There is no need for Minnesota be-
ing scared to death over the Chicago
game-at least not Yet Mr.. Stage
at this moment would be immensely
glad if he could be sure OF winning
by a single touchdown. The advantage
is with Chicago, but Minnesota has a
