ON COLLEGE GRIDIRONS
PRINCETON SCRUB FAST.
Beats VARSITY IN Prdctice-Work of
Other EIeUeRs.

Princeton. n. J.. Oct 21.-With the prelimi-
nary season over, the Princeton football team has
settled down TO hard work for the Cornell game
on Saturday. Every effort will be made by the
coaches to strengthen the line, through which
Washington and Jefferson was able to gain near
ly one hundred yards on Saturday. No improve
ment was shown in the work of the line men to-
day, and the strong scrub team smashed through
for two touchdowns. defeating the regulars for
the first time this year. The practice was the
hardest and also the most discouragng of the
year.
Wheeler 90, and Cooney took the Iinemen in
hand and for hour and half put them
through the hardest kind of a drill in rudi-
mentary line tackles. Meanwhile Romans, 90
coached Orr in drop kicking and the ends got
long drill in blocking, tackling and running down
the field under punts Then came the surprise
of the day In fierce SCrmmage of ten and
fifteen minute halves the scrub completely out
played the first team. McCrohan. the former
Holy Cross guard, at fullbacl on the second
team and played havoc with the varsity line
He tips the scales at considerably more than
two hundred pounds, is as strong as OK and
yet fast and the regulars could not stop his line
plunges.
Harlan kicked off to the scrubs 20-yard line
From this point the second eleven carried the
ball straight down the field for touchdown.
With the exception of a clever 2O-yard run and
a few shorter gains by McKaig at left halfback.
McCrohan gained practically the whole distance
He found McFaddin and Waller especially weak,
and tore big holes through their positions. Nc
Kaig played brilliant game at halfback He
looks good for the varsity. but cannot play on
account OF conditions.
The scrub scored again in the second half on
a line plunge by Bergland who took MCCrohan's
place. For the first team Harlan kicked goal
from placement from the 30-yard line, after Ber-
gems fair catch. Dillon. Mccormick and Phil
lips not in the scrmmage. rousing mass
meeting was held in Murray Hall tonight 10

loss of ~ points net. In February the
stock sold as high as 49, and at the be-
ginning Of last week sales were made at

The recent sharp decline in price has
been accompanied by rumors that the divi-
dend of IL per cent quarterly would be
cut at the directors meeting Deem
Der g. 1t has been said that the last
month or two has shown decided falling
off in earnings which has been attributed
in some well-informed quarters to the
wave of temperance agitation that has
swept over large sections of the west and
south. and has called out prohibition laws
in many localities.
An official of the company, while refus-
Ing yesterday to make any prediction as
to the dividend action to be taken at the
directors meeting on the day after Christ
mas, denied that the company had felt
materially the effects of the temperance
movement. The company's business, he
said. had never been better than it was
right up to the time, about a month ago,
when currency went to premium.

Terminal Charges for Cattle Cars in
Chicago Too High.


An important decision of the interstate
commerce commission was handed down
today by Commissioner Prouty in the case
of the Cattle Raisers' Association of Texas
and the Chicago Live Stock Exchange
against the Chicago. Burlington and
Quincy Railroad Company and several
other important western and southwest
ern lines
The subject of the complaint was the So
called terminal charge Of 81 per car i'm
posed by the defendants for the delivery
of carloads of live stock at the Union
stock yards in Chicago. This matter. in
one form or another, has been before the
commission for the last ten years. and has
been the subject Of much investigation,
discussion and report.
In the decision rendered, on the facts
disclosed by the record IN the case. 1t Is
held that 1.-THE terminal charge of So per
car exacted by defendants forsthe deliv-
cry of live stock at the Union stock yards
in Chicago with respect to shipments
from points without the state of Illinois is
unjust and unreasonable and unduly dis
crirninatory, and that such charge should
not exceed 81 per car.
It further is held that the decree of a
court Diminishing bill brought to enforce
an order of the commission made previous
to the amendment Of June %. 1906, is not
a bar to the right of the commission to
examine with respect to a date subsequent
to June 20 the same rate involved in that
proceeding"
The defendants are ordered to put in
force before February 1, 1908, terminal
charge not exceeding $1'per car.

War Department Wants to Cut Red
Tape to Relieve Creditors.

Much embarrassment is caused to dis
bursting officers and hardship to employees
and other creditors Of the government by
the reason that a disbursing oflcer is
often prevented from paying money under
particular appropriation because of in
sufficient funds in hand Hereunder, al
though he may have ample funds under
other appropriations that could be tempo
rarily applied to such payments. This
situation arises from a decision of the
Treasury, which holds that credit should
not be given to disbursing officers for ex-
penditures on account Of any appropri-
alton in excess of the amount in hand
pertaining to such appropriations until
funds have been advanced to cover the
excess.
In a recent communication to the Treas
ury Department the War Department sets
out that complaints have been received
from employees that they have not been
paid for their services for October, while
acquisitions to cover the items referred to
were forwaded to the Treasury as early
as October 25, on which warrants have
not yet been issued.
The Secretary of War says: I'm times
Of financial stringency as at present, it
is believed that the government should
afford all possible relief to the situation
by the prompt payment of it's current OBJ
legations when 1t can be done without
prejudice to it's own interest"
The War Department Is anxious that
authority be given to disbursing officers.
when no funds under certain appropri-
atoms are to their credit, to use other
money they may have on hand In paying
obligations incurred under the appropri-
alton of which they have no funds in
hand. The Treasury authorities realize
the difficulty in delays Necessarily occur
ring in financial stringency like the pres
ent, but say 1t it Is impossible to author
ize what is a plain violation of law.
