TAD AND BISHOP
Football Hero Introduces the Divine at Evening
 Meeting,
EMGLlsHMAN IS PLEASED
Glad That Athletes Lead in the Religious Ac-
 tivity,

Tad Jones, captain of the Yale baseball nine and quarterback on the football eleven, last night, in his ca pacity as the head of the Sheffield Scientific school Y. M. c. A., presided at the meeting of the Yale students in Dwight hall, where Bishop Ingram made an informal address.
 Bishop Ingram Saturday saw Tad Jones make long run and stood up on the bleachers and yelled, and last night he watched Tad admiringly as the gridiron hero demurely conducted the service. In his address the lord bishop said that he was more than glad at Yale to find that the men who were prominent in athletics, winning glory for the university on the grid iron, and in other brancNs of sport, were also at the head in the religious work.
 Tn regard to the observance of Sum day, the bishop said that he believed it better to go boating and indulge in other such practices than to spend the day in Sleep, and openly con demned those who lay abed late for criticising the early boaters. The bishop, however, stated that he did not believe boating was the proper way to observe the Sabbath.
 The bishop urged against putting on frills," as the Americans say, in religious work It doesn't go at Yale, he said, and it doesn't go anywhere in any branch of activity. Humor, said the bishop, is one of the essentials for a Christian all-around man; sympa- thy with peoples difficulties another.
 Men do not always become con- I lverted at once; the change comes gradually. said the bishop. The Chris tian religion is the basis of true friendship, and is the solace when our friends are taken away. The Chris tian religion is also the incentive to work The bishop closed with plea for the Yale men to go into the mis- sionary work and into the ministry in larger numbers than they have in the past He urged against too much seeking after wealth, saying that he had not yet commenced to save up money to support him in his old age.
 The bishop was dressed in his black costume the street costume of the bishops of the Church of England. He appeared intently interested in everything at the service and watched closely Frank Wright, the Indian evangelist, who sang two solos during the meeting.
 I After the meeting the bishop said he thought New Haven was one of the most beautiful spots he had ever seen and the people among the most hos pitable He was especially pleased with East and West Rocks, and yes- terday afternoon visited the former. During the afternoon he called on Charles Seymour, president of the Yale navy, who has been very III for several weeks at his home on Hill house avenue.
 Bishop Ingram leaves this morning for New York, where tomorrow he will address the Wall street brokers On Thursday he will sail for England and not until after that will the public at large know who won the tennis match between the lord bishop and his host the Rev. Anson Phelps Stokes, jr

GERMAN CREDIT
Prussian Minister of Finance Explains
 Scarcity of Money.

Berlin, Oct. 19.-Baron von Rheinba- ben, Prussian minister of finance, to- day received a correspondent of the Associated Press to whom he talked concerning the campaign that Is being made in Paris and London newspapers against the stolidity of German credit and in which 1t has been made to ap- pear that Berlin bankers have sought to influence the foreign policy of Ger many by seeking Paris money Is neces- sary in. the present situation to uphold German public and private finances.
 "The scarcity of money In Ger many" Baron von Rheinbaben said, lis one consequence of our extraordi- nary prosperity. The creation of ad- ditional means of production and the immense extension of commercial op- erations have absorbed the existing capital and those fresh accumulations derived from activity.
 Although German funds have not been sustained in this way to the ex- l tent they have in other countries they have not fallen proportionately more. If foreign countries wish to buy our excellent and strongly guaranteed government stock, we are agreeable: but we have no occasion to take any steps whatever to induce them to do so."
 Baron von Rhelnbaben then con- suited some memoranda and said:
 British consols dropped from 112 in 1897 to S9 in 1906 and to S3 now. The french rente from an average of 103 in 1897 is now 94.30, while Ger man 9s, which in 1897 were at an average of 97 now are 8525."
 As some indication of the unusual prosperity of Germany, the minister referred to the increase in the Prus- sian income tax reurns which grew from total of 0,S00,0OO in 1902 to $2,066, 900 in 1S96.

STABBED IN ARM
George Hines Injured in Order ing Killerg Of the
 Fence.
BOY HAS POLICE RECORD
Drew Knife and Inflicted Two Inch Wound on the
 Forearm.

Compelling a trespasser to betake his presence from premises where it was not desired against the will of the trespasser cost George Hines, a youth about sixteen years of age, a painful cut in the left forearm and nearly a. much more serious injury. Augustus Killerg, resident just ow in Prout street and about the same age and size as the aforementioned Hines with d party of young fellows made them selves obnoxious yesterday afternoon. by hanging about and playing in front of and on the fence of the premises at 114 Meadow street. This is the Hines home and George was asked by his mother to tell them to go away. This he claims he did several times but his admonitions and entreaties were not listened to.
 Again George sallied forth and walk l ing up to Killerg ordered him to get off the fence and vamooseI Killerg declin- ed. George then told him that he must and used enough force to remove him from that piece of the property. Kill | erg then invited him to take some one his own size, whereupon Hines told the l complainant that he thought he was about his size and that if he started to make trouble he would punch him. Accompanying the remark George gave Killerg a gentle push away which ap- parently was too much for the latter's temper. He pulled forth a knife from his pocket and before his victim could escape the blade he brought 1t down upon his shoulder. The knife did no more this time than cut through Hines coat but a second slash did more dam age. This came upon the left forearm just above the wrist and cut a very painful and ugly gash about a quarter of an inch deep and two in length in the flesh of that member Dr. Spier attended the young man and fixed up the cut which is not likely to prove of a serious nature.
 Hines succeeded in preventing the Killerg boy from giving him another cut by grasping him and holding him until his father came out. The latter then held him until George was able to get to the railroad station where he | found Patrolman John J. Roche, who at once came with him to the scene. He placed Killerg under arrest for breach of the peace.
 Although the Killerg boy Is only six- teen he already has bad record on the police books He was first arrested for stoning railroad cars, then for theft and finally for burglary. On this third arrest he was sent to the reform school but had since been liberated.

EMPEROR JOSEPH BETTER
General Situation Satisfactory-Talks
 With Advisors.

Vienna, oct. 1S-An official statement which, however, was not signed by the doctors in attendance, reports that the temperature of the emperor-king has increased but that it is not higher than it was on the preceding days of his ili- ness. The general strength of the pa tient is satisfactory and he is taking sufficient nourishment. Public opinion has been reassunned by the fact that no relatives of his majesty have been summoned
 The emp kings. audience of Ba- ron Von Abdominal occurred at 5 o'clock this afternoon and lasted forty five minutes. It is stated that the min ister reported to his majesty concern ing difficulties of a constitutional na- ture that have arisen during his ill., ness. He explained that the formali- ties connected with the Ausgleich had reached an urgent stage, that his sane tion of the bill must be submitted to both houses of parliament, in accord ance with the agreement, on Oct. 16, and that before this could be done cer- tain questions of high political and military importance required to be settled.
 On some of these points the emperor king has not granted needful conees- sions, and cannot in his present condl- tion of health attend the sessions of parliament, as he is unable to talk or undergo the labor connected with the necessary conferences to settle these details. The question therefore arose as to the advisability of empowering the heir presumptive to settle ali three points, he being well informed as to his majesty's views on them.

NEW YORK, October 13.--Trade con-

Business on the West Side OF the city;

and dry goods are still moving WE'LL
The metal trade, however, shows
weak spots In tin and copper. In cop
per prices went off about one-half for
the week at New York. while at Lon
don the decline was e. 2 u s. to e. 15s.
The market at home is denloralized,
and every attempt of producers to find
a selling basis discovers to them tho
fact that the recent heavy reductions
have not tempted the large buyers to
take hold. Several millions OF electro-
lytic copper were offered at about Ia
cents. but the best bid was one-half
cent under that. In fact, the market
seems to be set on running down to a
12-cent basis. ana some people predict
that IL cents will be reached.
The foreign tin market was demora-
|llzed by heavy selling for foreign ac-
count, and the net loss for the week
was fully fls. AT New York tho loss
was 2,s cents.
