SATURDAYS
 FOOTBALL GAMES

| East is now reaching an interesting stage, and tomorrow's contests prom ise to be useful in giving a line on the relative strength of the big elevens Harvard will meet the fast Williams squad at Cambridge, while Yale will play Holy Cross at New Haven. The work of the crimson bunch, so far, has been somewhat disappointing to the Harvard fans, and it is generally 1 admitted that in the early games the Ellis have shown up to the best advan- | tage. Tn their recent practice the Cambridge lads have made marked | improvement and the rooters hope that they will demonstrate their abil ity by rolling up big score in to- morrow's contest with Williams.
 Princeton, which meets Bucknell tomorrow, is showing up we'll and the enthusiasts of Old Nassau are already doping out a championship season. Particular interest will attach to the game at Philadelphia between SWarth more and Pennsylvania, because of the recent bequest of the late Miss Anna Jeannes, who gave S1 1,000,OO0 to Swarthmore college with the provis,. Swarthmore is especially proud of it's football team, which once defeated Pennsylvania, and the sentiment of the students is decidedly in favor of refusing the bequest on the terms of fered. In any event, the matter will not interfere with this seasons foot decision will not be reached until the meeting of the tpard of managers ln December. The Swarthmore eleven will put up battle royal tomorrow in an attempt to again defeat the Quakers, since the effect of such a victory might cause the board to de- eide that a winning football eleven is more to be desired than even a mil lion dollars.
 At Ithaca tomorrow Cornell will play Colgate, while the citizens of Buffalo will witness what should be d fast game between the Carlisle h. dians and Syracuse university. The redskins have made an exceptionally good record since the season opened and there are some who believe th they have a good chance of winning the championship honors of the East. Dartmouth plays the Massachusetts Aggies at Hanover, Amherst meets Bowdoin, Lehigh plays Rutgers and New York university meets Stevens at Hoboken.
 The big game in the South will be that between the Naval academy and Vanderbilt university of Nashville at Annapolis The Tennessee squad is admittedly not as good as last year, and it is anticipated that the sailors will have litle trouble in taking it's measure George Washington univer- sity will play Western Maryland a. Washington, and Alabama and Mis- sisisppi are scheduled to measure strength at Columbus.
 In the West, the principal games will be Indiana at Chicago. Ames as Minnesota, Wabash at Purdue, Alumni at Iowa, Nebrasaka at Grinnell, Kan sas Aggies at Haskell and Denver university at Utah. The season will open in the Central West in earnest a week from tomorrow, when Chi cago will play the Illini, the Nebras- ka Cornhuskers will invade Minna- sota and Missouri will play Iowa.

KEMP" T0NEY TESTIFlES
 AT CRAFT HEARING

sensation this morning when he stated that Senator Mccall had been offered a bribe in connection with the Ar5enta bill and that he had gone to the prosecutor about it, but that "Rhoton had given it to him in the neck ' In answer to a question. Senator Gross de- clared that the prosecuting attor- ney's office was the "dirtiest hole" in the state, to which Rhoton re- pied that Senator Gross had never been invited and that he did not want him to bring his filth and slime into the office of the prose- cutting attorney.
 Senator Mccall stated that he had never been offered a bribe and the statement of Gross is in direct contradiction of the sworn testi- mony of the senator from Law renee.
 Senator Mccall testified that Hinkle had come down from Bates vile to talk to him about the Ar genta bill and had advised him to vote for the Little Rock side. Hin- kle had suggested that if Senator Mccall was absent it wouldn't be noticed.
 Gross denied the statement that A. c. Truitt, the detective-lobby- ist, had spoken to him about a pure food bill and that the senator had asked him for s2,50O to kill the bill.
 Senators Vaughter, Mccall and Fletcher testified, but their testi- mony added nothing to the case. Mayberry admitted on the stand that he had given $1,5O0 in certi- fled checks to be distributed to the faithful for the passage of the Cache levee bill, but that the gov ernor had vetoed the measure and the money had been returned
 Hinkle testified for short time, but added nothing to his former affirmations. He refused to answer any questions concerning the beer money, and even refused to confirm the statements made by him in the last few days

Senator H. K Toney of this county,
 was a witness at the Webb Coyington
 graft trial in Little Rock Saturday
 afternoon and sWore that he never
 accepted one cent of influence
 money" nor did he ever, while mem
 Der of the legislature Or at any other
 time solicit it.
 Senator Hinkle, one of the wit
 fled that Senator Toney was one of
 five men, members of the legislature,
 who accepted envelopes, supposed to
 have contained money.
 Toney testified Saturday that he
 knew nothing of any bribery conspi
 money to vote on any measures. He , denounced Hinkle's testimony, which he said was "foully false,' and the senator from Jefferson went so far as to explain his votes on various bills. He told of them in a straightforward ana plain manner and unlike former { witnesses in the same case, answered sever1 1qCsstion asked him: \ ro.laAt says he voted for the. capi- tol biz because he had always been J in fSfor of a new capitol building for Arkansas. He said he introduced the
 first resolution looking to it's erec- Btion in 1899 and helped to elect w. .B. Alexander, of this city one of the Acapitol commissioners. He support ed him, he said, because he knew him to be absolutely honest. He asaid Commissioner Alexander thought < that the capitol appropriation bill was aneeded two years ago and that is Siwhy he supported that measure Toney denied ever having @received or solicited any mon Fey from Walter Ritchie, of SCamden. Ritchie was perfect strang- Ser to him, Toney said, up to two min *utes before the local telephone bill Twas passed He voted for that bill, Asaid the witness, because his eonsti- ' Aents had urged him to support it. M Sprung Sensation.
 nee Senator Gross presented some g bufmony that was a distinct sur timese to the prosecution and to cnourly every one else in the court his sm Prosecutor Rhoton himself 3, ftls made the defendant for time wd Bob Rogers, former attor- nkey= general, was placed in a most |Tnfayorable attitude in connection
 with the Oldham bill fer the an-
 nexation of Little Rock and Ar ggenta.
 The senator from Crawford stat sed in open court that Rogers had .sapproaehea him just before the
 senate voted on the bill and prom @ised .him that if he would vote with .Little Rock on the matter or even .absent himself for rollcau he sssTolll;l sec that the indictments now Npanding against him were quashed.
 R oearg eXnlained, according to &Grcss, that he had interviewed sRhoton on the matter and that the 0latter had refused to make writ Hten statement freeing Gross from the indictments, but said to the former attorney general "Go ahead, Rob. have never gone back on you.'
 Senator Gross explained that he implicitly believed Rogers at the
 time, but he would not accept his
 proportion. He stated that if Rho-
 ton had given written statement
 of immunity he would have read
 it in the senate the next morning.
 Tn the course of his examination
 Rhoton denied that he had spoken
 to Rogers about the proposition
