FLIGHT OF WITNESS
ENL|VENS DRUCE CASE
MOCk-FuneraI Story Has
Difficulties.

LONDON, Dec. 19.-(SpeciaD The
dramatic disappearance from London
of Robert C. Caldwell, an American
witness in the bruce case, served to
revive interest in the proceedings
when the hearing was resumed before
a crowded court room.
Replying to Magistrate PloWden,
Mr. Atherly-Jones declared that he
regarded the testimony of Caldwell
as having been discredited on certain
points and that therefore all his ev-
idence should be discarded. Without
admitting that the whole story of the
mock funeral was false, Mr.. Atherly-
Jones said CaldwelPs story of the
circumstances could not be accepted.
In his opening for the defense Mr..
Avery denounced Caldwell as the
most novious perjurer who ever
polluted the fountain of justice" He
secuted the idea that Charles Dick
ems would have lent himself to the
intringue of keeping up the delusiOn
of the dual personality of the Duke
of Portland, and declared Miss Mary
Robinson, who testified that she knew
T. c. bruce as the Duke of Portland,
to be a suspicious witness. He said,
he would prove part of her testimony
false.
A warrant for the eXtradition of
Caldwell was issued at the Bow street
Police court this afternoon, and the
police of New York will be asked to
arrest him upon his arrival there.

n defeat before the Spring Valley
boys in the game yesterday, the score
being 90 to ,. The game was adver-
tised as the deciding contest of the
illinois independent football champion
ship. Spring Valley gave Moline some
thing of surprise when it began the
use OF the new style of football, the
open field plays. Dave Miller of
Spring Valley proved a star in the for
ward pass formations, and seemed
able to score almost at will in the
first half. Four times in the first half
Spring Valley crossed the Moline line,
but each time the goal kick failed
In the second half Moline took a
brace, and practically outplayed the
visitors. Several times the ball was
taken to the five yard line, and once
Spring Valley was forced to punt from
behind the line. The ball was kicked
out of bounds on the one-half yard
line, and Moline easily sent Carlmark
over for the only score for the West
Ends.

Loses to keWanee.

The Moline high school football
team is still in line to contest for the
Illinois high school championship, hav-
ing defeated Springfield in a closely
contested game Saturday. The score
.of the game was % to in favor of
Moline, but the score does not fairly
indicate the hard contest which was
played. Moline, as usual, made its
greatest gains on the forward pass and
open field plays. Springfield was I'M
able to employ this style of play to ad-
vantage. and could not stop those made
by Moline. On line plays and the old
style game, Springfield was the Let
ter. the Senators having a heavier
line.
Score In First.
In the first half Moline early rushed
the ball to Springfield's 10 yard line
twice, but lost it, Hull finally broke
away and made a pretty 40 yard run
and crossed the goal. This score in
the first half disheartened Springfield,
anu the SSCOHu udlI WdS d IHuCH
one sided contest than the first.
The first score in the second half
resulted from Wyland's blocking a for
ward pass by Springfield. and carry
ing the ball to the % yard line.
WoOdyatt kicked a field goal from
there, making the score 10 to 0. The
second was made on straight football,
Springfield being penalized on the last
play so that the ball would have gone
over the line even had the line play
failed to score for Moline. The for
ward pass, used twice in succession,
brought the ball again to Springfeld's
10 yard line, and tackle play scored.
The final score was made by Melvin,
who caught a forward pass attempted
by Springfield.
| Rockford Conccitcd.
Rockford high school. with surpris-
ing conce:t in view of the fact that ii
has cancelled game with Moline. is
now claiming the state high school
| championship by reason of the defeat
of Oak Park Saturday. by a score OF
% to 4. Moline contemplates action
| to have the Rockford game which was
contracted for next Saturday declared
forfeit. In that case Rockford will
have less claim to championship titles.
Oak Park is to play Moline Nov. 80,
and that game will give line on
Rockford and Moline relative strength.
Davenport showed Under.
I Kewanee showed the Davenport high
school team under score of 81 to O
at Kewanee Saturday. The open field
| play won for Kewanee. Davenport
was kept guessing by the peculiar
plays of the Illinois boys. The Dayen-
port players claim that Kewanee did
not play a clean game, and that the
treatment given them by the Kewa
nee management was not according to
contract. Such complaints might under
other circumstances be taken as OF
| doubtful standing, but Kewanee's rep
utation is not of the best by long
ways, and the inclination is to think
| it probable that Davenport has some
| just complaint.
