 PLETED.

Provides for Three Officials on the
 Field and Linesmen to Watch Offside
 Play y- Instant Disqualification for
 Rough PIay--NcutraI Zone Between
 EIevens When Lined Up-Passlng of
 Ball in Any Direction Between Twen-
 ty-fiye Yard Lines--Ten Yards to be
 Gained in Three DOwns-Increase of
 Distance Between Goal Posts.
 Cambridge, Mass, Jan. 9,-Recom- mendations regarding changes in the game of football were completed to- day by the special football committee appointed by the Athletic association of Harvard graduates, and will be submit ted tomorrow to the athletic commit tee of the university. It Is expected that the committee will Authorize Coach William T. Reid, jr.. to present the views as to those which Harvard holds officially regarding football at the meeting of the football rules com- mittee, which will be held in New York next Friday night.
 The report is divided into two parts, the first presenting the committees idea of the necessary ethical reforms and the second the suggestions regard ing the changes thought necessary to bring these reforms about,
 The principal ethical reform suggest ed provides for three officials on the field, for linesmen to watch off-side play; for instant disqualification for rough play. team to play five minutes without substitute, a player disquali- fled twice to be barred for the season. no blocking except by body, no inter ference with a punter, and a standing committee to select officials.
 The noteworthy changes to bring about such reforms are:
 The ball to be placed with te points towards the goals, and no players to stand ahead of the points; increasing downs from five to ten yards; permit ting the ball to be passed in any di- rectlon when the ball is between the twenty-five yard lines, provided the player has not advanced beyond line of scrimmage; no punt out for d try at goal; increase distance between the goal posts to twenty-five feet. no inter- ference with a free kick; fair catch to be indicated by the holding up of hand, no movement by players until the ball is put into play, except by one man, and finally, that not more than three men besides the man receivinp the ball shall be less than five yards behind the line, unless outside the posi- ton occupied by the outside man in the line.
 The report embodying these recop1- mendations is signed by W. T. Reid, jr., chairman; L. B, R. Briggs, Edward

NO WEST POINT sAARPsAoo1ERs
Says There Will Be No Rifle
practice.

WEST. POINT, N. Y, May S.-Gen-
eral A. L. Mills, superintendent Of the
military academy, has decided that
there shall be no rifle practice among
the cadets outside of the routine work
in that line. 1t was hoped that this
year the cadets would be represented
by a team at the national match at
Seagirt in September, and the marks
men who form the team at the naval
academy had hoped they would have
an opportunity to shoot in cimpetition
with the West Pointers on May rs,
when the academies have their base
ball game at West Point. General
Mills, however, finds that it would take
much time to get the cadets in con-
dition for competitive work with visit
ing teams. He thinks the time can be
more profitably used in the work of
the institution, and he does not see the
necessity of making rifle practice a
part of the athletic training, as is the
case at Annapolis.

Portable quarters at reasonable prices.
This letter of Information on the
part of Judge Pickens will materially
influence the attendance at the re-
union, as In many cases where great
reunions assemble, the price of rooms
and meals have been arbitrarily raised
and Elks in this city feel that Denver
is doing an act of justice in protect
ing them, which other cities might
have done with profit to their reputa-
ton. Denver authorities, it is said,
will take away the license of anyone
overcharging any visitor to the Elks'
reunion, thus preventing the possibility
of extortion when the crowds are in
the city. The interest in the meet
ing in Denver is perhaps greater
among Elks of this city than has ever
been known before, and as the order
is growing so rapidly the attendance
will probably be the largest ever
known in the history of the order.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, May s.
The state convention Of the Knights
of Columbus of New York opened here

St Patrick's cathedray, New York.
The Rev. William Livingston, rector
of st. Gabriel's church, New York, and

sic officiated as deacon. The sermon

vention hall, where they were welcom-
ed by Mayor George H. Hine.

sued at Williston, charging him with
conspiracy.
Some months ago a warrant for a
similar charge was issued in Valley
county, Montana, for the arrest of
Denny, and he was placed under ar
rest. He made a fight against the is
suance of requisition papers, and Cow
ernor Searles honored the demand OF
the Montana governor. Mr.. Denny
made application to Judge Cowan for
a writ Of habeas corpus, which was is
sued, and he thus gained his liberty.
Since that time he has not wandered
far from Judge Cowan's district.
Assistant Attorney General r. N.
Stevens went to Williston several days
ago. and it is said that the issuance
of a warrant there for the arrest of
Denny was sanctioned by him.
1t is charged that Denny conspired
with Montana and North Dakota men
to steal horses from the rancherS Of
Montana, and further, that Denny re-
ceived the horses in this state and di-
rected how they should be disposed Of
In order to evade any possible hitch
in the proceedings, Constable Davidson
armed with a warrant for Denny's ar
rest, drove out Of WilliStOn and caught
a train at a station this side Of there,
and bv that means was able to reach
church's ferry before Denny's friends
had been able to advise him Of the new
turn Of affairs.

chine and anti-machine republicans is
assuming large proportions. If there is
anything needed to make the early
campaign more aggressive ia is a few
libel suits started by either Senator
Hansbrough or Alex Mckenzie.
Libel suits would have an effect
somewhat like the Haunting of a red
rag at a bullfght. They would draw
attention to the story in sections where
little or no attention has been paid to
the Alaska tale, and would result in
the state being flooded with copies of
the completed story

NO man COULD DECLINE
Says Uncle Joe About Presidential
Nomination.
he CLAIMS Bee HAS NOT STUNG HIM
POSSIBILITY OF BEING ON THE
TICKET Is SAID TO BE
GROWING.


CHICAGO. ILL.,, May S.-A Washing
ton special to the Chicago Tribune
says:
It is remarkable how often the name
of Uncle Joe" Cannon crops up now
adays in connection with the mention
of presidential possibilities It is
equally significant that on each sepa-
rate occasion the possibility of his be-
ing the next republican candidate for
the presidency is universally discuss
ed as a reasonable one, barring the
question of age
Inasmuch as a republican paper in
his own district had formally proposed
his name as candidate for the presi-
dency, Speaker Cannon yesterday final
ly yielded to the solicitation of a re-
porter long enough to say:
"The presidential bee is not buzzing
in my head, and I do not expect to be
afflicted by that insect If, as a repre-
sentative in congress and as speaker of
the house, I am able to contribute, in
the performance of my duties, to the
enactment of legislation which will
bring the greatest good to the great
est number, the cup of my ambition
will be full
Cannot Decline It.
"The presidency is not to be had
for the asking, and man cannot de-
cline what has not been given him. No
man ever has declined this great office,
and probably no man ever will do so.
1.-THE campaign next fall should be a
united effort on the part of all repub-
licans, and there ought not to be in
jected into it the personal ambitions
of any man. It would be wise for us
to make good record during the pres
ent session of congress before we think
of entering upon the work Of nominat-
ing candidate for the presidency"
Cannon Most Mentioned.
All the older politicians in the repub-
lican party who are not themselves
candidates for the presidency and who
are not likely to be drawn into the
race, say there is no man who is so
frequently mentioned in so many places
as Speaker Cannon.
Everyone knows his age to be ap-
proximately that which the Bible men,
tions as the ordinary limit of a mans
life, but no one who knows "Uncle
Joe" would imagine for an instant he
is anywhere near the termination of
his physical capacity for life and la
Dor. Speaker Cannon has more down.
right energy and stands the strain of
his work better, to all appearances,
than any man who has presided over
the house in many a long year.
