the light work in preparation for the game with
the Springfield Training School tomorrow. There
was no scrinmage work. but the varsity went
through the forward pass plays with the second
eleven lined up against it. The showing made by
the first team was by means satisfactory In
this work the backs and the ends failing TO work
together with the result that the ball frequently
went 10 the scrubs for big losses.

The college football season has reached point
when the so-caued practice games for the big

championship begins The games to-day while still
of the practice order may have distinct bearing
on more important ones to come and should furnish
the best test vet provided of the revised rules
Yale Princeton. Pennsylvania, Harvard and Cor

give good account of themselves. The Pennsyl-
vania-Brown game may be the best. as the Provi-
dence collesians fairly strong and will try hard
to follow Swarthmcre's example and defeat the
Quakers Pennsyiva MIA will try, on the contrary,
to wipe out the Stain of last Saturdays reverse
Browns chief weakness this year Is in punting
otherwise the eleven is quite up to the standard
of other years.
The Harvard Spring field Training School game
will be interesting as furnishing the first line
the relative strength of the Yale and Harvard elev
ems. Yale beat Springfield on October 10 by score
of II to O.
Princeton will line up against Bucknell. a team
that Cornell defeated October 13 by q score OF
a to 8. This game is also important indicating
the probable outcome Of the meeting between
Princeton and Cornell at the Polo Grounds next
Saturday. Yale must face the strong Pennsylvania
State eleven, which defeated the Carlisle Indians
to two weeks ago. Cornell will have Bowdoin
as an opponent and will hardly have an easy time

TEST OF EMPLOYERS LIABILITY ACT.
Attorney General Moody Will Intervene to
Support Its Constitutionality.

Washington. Oct. 1e.-Attorney General Moody
to-day made statement announcing with the
Presidents approval. that when the first caso
under the Employers Liability act is ,ried hs
intends to ask leave to intervene in the case 70
support the constitutionalty. validity and inter-
pretation of the law.
The statement is as follows:
1t has come TO my knowledge that il will BE-
claimed in court that the EMPLOYERS Liability
act passed by the Congress last winter by
the interstate railroads for death or injury IN
CURED In their service through the negligence OF
interstate railroads any of it's employees is be-
yond the constitutional power of Congress, and
therefore void.
1t is my intention to ask leave Of the court IN
which the first under this law is tried 70
intervene, not upon the questions of fact but
Tor the purpose of supporting the constitutions
ality. validity and Interpretation of this law.
This intervention finds a precedent IN tho
leave given by the Supreme Court 10 this de-
partment TO intervene In private case arising
under the safety appliance law. Under this
intervention, In the case OF Johnson against the
Southern Pacific company, the judgments Of the
circuit Court and Circuit Court Of Appeals were
reversed. and the law plainly interpreted and
made effective by the Judgment Of the Supreme
Court
This course has received the approval OF tho
President.
II is understood that when the Attorney Cen
eral decided to intervene in these cases he was
in possession OF information that many OF the
railroads had decided to enter upon a systenatic
effort TO break down the law. This conclusion Is
said to have been reached at a meeting Of rail-
road attorneys held IN Louisville a month ago
It Is expected that a test suit will be brought
soon in Kentucky and another in New Jersey.
