KING CHARLES OF RoUMANIA.
Success Has Crowned His Long and
Useful Reign.

1t was on May 20, 1866, that
Charles of Hohenzollern. then about
27 years of age, and holding a COM
mission of Lieutenant in the First
Regiment of Foot Guards at Pots
dam, set foot on Roumanian soil to
assume the throne to which he had
been elected by the Roumanian peo-
pie on the Nomination of Napoleon
III. A younger brother of that
Prince Leopold of Hohenzollern,
whose election candldature to the
throne of Spain in 1870 resulted in
the war between Germany and
France, he seemed destined to spend
the remainder of his existence In the
Prussian army, when he received
quite Unexpectedly the news that he
had been chosen by the people OF
Roumania for their ruler.
Austria, however, did not relish
the idea of having a seton Of the
house of Hohenzollern on the throns
at Bucharest, and determined to pre-
vent the Prince from reaching Rou-
mania. A close watch was kept on

Yale Now Holds Undisputed Con-

ball Championship.
LONG STRING OF VICTORIES
Harvard Proved Worthy Foeman and
Played one Of the Best Games in
Its History--Lost Game at
the Close.

NEW HAVEN, Nov. 24.-Yale's BAN
ners wave triumphant over the city
tonight, as a result of another victory
over Harvard, the final score being 6
to o. The crimson went down to de-
feat In a desperate battle which in
football strategy and spectacular
plays had few equals since the two
universities have met. With the ex-
ception of the drawn game last Sat
urday with Princeton. Yale's title to
the championship of the country is
almost undisputed She has met and
defeated Carlisle, which defeated
Minnesota, and who also defeated
Pennsylvania. and the conquerors of
Michigan. The victory was won
through strictly bali knowledge, su-
perior play. almost unerring accuracy
In developing the possibilities of the
new rules and the magnificent work
of the players The score of a single
touchdown and goal repeats that of
last year and adds to Yale's string of
victories only twice broken since
1897.
Harvard proved a worthy foeman.
Her men repeatedly shone conspicu-
ously and flashes Of brilliancy In over
plays seemed to entitle them to re-
ward. Harvard was tribe slow In
executing plays, which as vast year,
seemed to hinge on her great strength
in defense. Yale's success lay in play
ing extensively at the opening, driving
her plays hard and taking every ad-
vantage of every opening when her
opponent had the ball. Interference,
forward passes and one side kicks
were we'll developed. Not once did
the Yale men have to run down the
field without assistance. AS the game
was nearing its close, Yale played
faster and rolled the Crimson line
back into heap time and time again.
It was only though a stubborn con-
test of every inch that kept the score
at single figures.

HERKnIMER. Nov. 24.--With some
medical testimoy today concerning
the condition of Grace Browns body,
the state will end its case against
Chester E. Gillentte, who is on trial
here charged with the murder of the
girl. Interest has now drifted to the
plea the defense will make and where
so much interest lies there is natural
ly crop of rumors. The lawyers for
the defense, however, are maintaining
silence on this point to the last and
what they will claim will probably not
be known until their opening address
is delivered. This, it is expected, will
come Monday. 1t seems probable that
Gillette will take the stand in his own
defense, if the defense puts in any
testimony at ALL He alone can tell
what actually happened in the fatal
boat, but if he goes on the stand he
will put himself in position to re-
ceive searching cross examination.
Gillette's action in this respect depends
on his lawyers, in whom he appears
to repose every confidence.

Proposition 10 Enforce the Age Limit
Which viii Bar the Japanese
From the Public Schools In
San Francisco.

NEW YORK. Nov. 24.--Mayor
Schmitz OF San Francisco, speaking
OF the Japanese problem in San
Francisco, last night, characterized
II as a tempest in q teapot" He said
that when he returns home he intends
TO urge the state legislature to repeal
the laws relating to the segregation
OF Japanese pupils and make new laws
providing for the limit as to the age
at which child can enter a certain
grade of any school,
Il think this age limit will solve
the whole problem" said Mayor
Schmitz. "rhe Japanese surely could
not complain of laws which were
equally binding upon the Americans.
and 1t would not be then necessary
to class the Japanese as Mongolians,
which has caused them much grief of
spirit and has really been at the bot
tom of the whole trouble. With the
age limit the only discrimination
against the Japanese, II viii effec-
lively keep them out of the schools,
because the majority of the Japanese
who are In the primary grades are
grown men, There will then be no
grounds for outside interference with
the San Francisco school question"
Mayor Schmitz said that the Pres
ident could not have chosen better
man than Secretary Metcalf to con-
duct the government inquiry, but said
that in case Secretary Metcalfs re-
port was adverse to the San Francisco
school board, he did not believe the
people of that city would do more
than to receive 1t with courtesy.

POLICE CLUBS USED FREELY
Street Cars Are Running at Intervals
Under Heavy Guard Of Policemen,
But They Are Carrying No
Passengers.

HAMILTON. Ont. Nov 24-Never
In HamIlton's history were such scenes
OF disorder and lawless seen as were
enacted on the principal streets Of
the city tonight Scores Of rioters
and sympathizers with the street car
men felt the weight OF the pollcemen's
night sticks, and keen edge soldiers
swords, In several conflicts on James
and Kings streets. AT a late hour
tonight the street cars were running
at intervals, under a heavy guard
Of policemen and detectives, but We're
not carrying any passengers, and con-
tinued to be targents of fusillades OF
stones and bricks from the side streets
and alleys.
Drastic as were the measures taken
by the authorities tonight, 1t was
plain that the mob spirit had not
been broken The crowds began to
gather at dusk, Police officers at
once saw trouble was brewing and
made preparations accordingly. The
fights on the streets began as early
as Z o'clock. The police welded their
clubs freely but the situation became
too serious for them to handle. Sher-
iff Middleton was notified and imme-
diately read the riot act, which makes
every able bodied citizen amenable to
police duty. He also notified Captain
ogilvite that the aid of troops had
become necessary to preserve order.
At o'clock concerted effort by the
police and the sheriffs deputies was
made to clear the streets and de-
tachment of soldiers was called into
requlsition. Aside from score or
more of rioters who were struck with
policemen's clubs. no fatalities were
reported up to o'clock.
James street In the vicinity of the
city hall Is packed with a dense crowd
OF yelling hoodlums and hundreds Of
people were attracted to the scene,
more by curiosity than to take part
in the disorders. The police charged
this crowd first and welded their clubs
with telling effect Smashing right
and left on the heads of the hood
lums, they waded into the crowd. Men
and women suffered alike, no dlstinc-
ton being made, and In short time
the pavement was marked by uncon-
scious forms. The mob, realizing that
the police meant business this time,
began to retaliate with stones and
other missiles At this point the clat-
ter Of hoofs on the pavement an
nounced the approach of the cavalry
and the crowd fled into the side streets
and alleys.
The streets in the vicinity of the
city hall were soon cleared, but 1t |
was only temporary relief The
crowds soon began to converge on
Kings street, Street cars with de-
tectives on board came along and be-
came the target for fusillade Of

ers and detectives deserted the car, |
and as the mob grew in volume when
their lives became endangered by an

militia could reach the spot. The
crowd melted away as soon as the
