The stronger these Muscles propel the

railway was responsible for the freight
congestion ON the isthmus of Panama,

FOOT BALL BARRED
OUT AT HARVARD
Game Will Not Be Played Again Un-
less Rules Are Radically
Changed.

Boston, Mass, Jan. i6.-Harvard
university definitely has abolished the
game of football because, as played, it
is a menace to the morals as well as
the bodies of the players.
Not until the game has been reform
ed in way acceptable to the board of
trustees will its establishment be
considered by the university authori-
ties.
The discontinuance of the game is a
result of a vote taken last week at a
secret meeting of the board of over
seers. when il was decided that inter
collegiate football at Harvard would
hot be permitted until the rules and
regulations had been SO changed and
amended as to remove what the over
seerS regard as the evils of the pres
unanimously the opinions of a special
committee that the game at present
played is essentially bad in every re
spect, and that the method of forma-
ton encouraged trickery and foul play.
Under the ruling of the oyerseers
football is now in abeyance at the uni
versity until the committee on the reg
uIation of athletic sports has made its
report to the board and until the
board has accepted the new rules and
regulations in every particular Wheth-
er the reformed rules can be arranged
and accepted in time for the resump

SOUTHERN PACIFIC DELAYS CANAL
SECRETARY TAFT AND CHIEF
EFFECTED STEAMSHIP
HINDER DELIVERY OF SUPPLIES.

terial intended for the canal delivered
at Colon by steamships, operated by
the government from New York; so
that shipments would be necessary
over the lines of the Pacific mail from
San Francisco. That the blockade had
this effect was asserted by Stevens,
who said that several cargoes had
been shipped via San Francisco and
over the Pacific Mail line for this very
reason. Other shipments will go this
way unless an end can be made to the
blockade.
Plans for Relief.
AS there are no wharves on the west
side of the isthmus, it is impossible for
the railroad to store the congested
freight on that side of the isthmus. un-
til it can be shipped to San Francisco.
Consequently, storage and docking fe-
cilities on the east side of the isthmus
are said to be constantly overtaxed.
and the canal work seriously hindered.
1t was suggested by several members
of the appropriations committee that
the Pacific Mail Steamship company
might be induced to act more prompt.
ly if the United States were to threaten
to shut off mail contracts with the com
pany, and other members urged that
the coastwise shipping laws are ade
quate to punish neglect on the part OF
the company.
