WEST POINT
 SURPRISED
The Army Eleven Beaten by
 the Navy
The Supposedly Inferior Middies playedalI Around the Heavier Cadets.

Philadelphia. Nov. 3O.-The navy to- day defeated the army in the annual football contest in Franklin field by a score of to 0 before brilliant and representative assembly of nearly 30.0OO persons. Though the score looks close the West Point team never seriously threatened the Annapolis goal. the midshipmen playing all around the op- ponents at nearly every stage of the contest. The result was a surprise to the army, for with its heavier men. more experience and better season record than the navy. the cadets could see nothing but victory.
 The navy put the army on the run. but like good soldiers the army came back and fought very harcl. It was no use however. for it was the navys : day. The game was marred by much fumbling and other misPlays. The new style plays. particularly the forward pass failed nearly every time they were tried. Both teams resorted to much bunting and end runs. The only score of the game was made in the first half. The midshipmen twice had the ball within striking distance but failed to touch or time failed them to follow up their advantages but finally after a bunting duel the army man fumbled and d midshipman fell on the pig skin on the army's twenty-six yards line.
 Left Half Back Douglass went through the West Point line for ten yards and a forward pass helped some. Another line play put the ball two wards from the cadets goal. The army braced but the navy was not to be de-

GOIDfItlD MINE OWNERS
 FIGHTING TWO FOES
One Is the Miners Union and the
 Other Ire Shelter Trust.

GoIdfield. New. Nov, 30.-The mine owners association met today and con- sidered the following resolutions which are contrued by the Goldfield pub lie as being a def to the Miners Union and forecast of an open camp when the mines resume work:
 Resolved. that the mines of the Goldfield district shall remain closed until the present crisis is passed and local conditions settle to the satisfac- ton of operators and until the smelt- CTS will treat ores at rate which will warrant mine owners in commencing production"
 The Goldfield chamber of commerce has begun war upon the shelter trust and will carry the war to Washington. The directors met today and appointed a committeA to invite the cooperation of other mining camps in sending a committee to Washington to induce the president to investigate the smelter trust with especial reference to its all legged policy toward Nevada.
 Nevada is being boycOtted it k claim cd by the smeltcr trust which has placed such burdens and conditions on ore shippers that shipments are prac- tically prohibited. At the same time the smelters are taking all the ores of Colorado to other states where the trust has large mining interests with out any restrictions or advance charges.

feated. Douglass was called on again and with a mighty plung he went over for touchdown. and Lange kicked the goal. There was little done in the remainder of the half.
 The second half moved listlessly. the play frequently being stopped to enable the trainers to fix up the in- jured men. Each team constantly punted in the hope of recovering the ball on fumbles in their opponents ter ritory, and this frequently happened. The star of the game was Captain Douglass. His bunting was uniformly good, and his tackling sure. but it was in running with the ball where he showed his best. For the army Beav- CTS was called upon to do the most work, and he played a brilliant game until forced to leave the field through injuries.
 Society was out in force to witness the game. Though President KoOse- welt was not present he was represented by Miss Ethel Roosevelt. who was the guest of Acting Secretary of War Oli- yer and the Misses Oliver The Oliver party included Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Beekman.
 Secretary Metcalf officially repre- sented the navy department. He was accompanied by Mrs. Metcalf and by Senator and Mrs. Flint of California. A big gray mule covered with the grey, black and yellow of the army. in the capacity of a mascot, ambled in front of the army stand. A goat was mas cot for the navy.

IA FIERCE PHRASE
 STIRRED STOLYPIN
An Orator Who Let His Feelings Run Away
 With Him
He Had No Intention He Said of Insulting the Rus sian Premier Who Intends to Challenge Him to d Duel.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 3O.-"The Stoly- pin necktie." was. the expression used by Fedori Roditchteff. orator of the constitutional democrats in the dOuma this a--:.e---.oOn, to designate the sum mary drumhead court martial institu- ted by Stolypin in August 1906. and which decreed on the existence of the second douma. It is the phrase on all lips in the capital tonight. The phrase has already become historic and has completely plotted out the effect Of the ministerial declaration in the recent debates. It has destroyed the complacency of the conservatives. re- storing the tense atmosphere of the earlier doumas. Upon StoIypin. who in company with his colleagues. was sitting near the speakers ttbunc. the words feli as thunderbolt, recalling the most painful incident of his career as premier.
 He turned deathly pale. clenched his desk, and stared. mOtionless for several minutes at the unprecedented storm let loose by the reactionary deputies surging past him. finally he left the chamber without uttering d word
 The tumult caused by Roditchteff's s speech continued half an hour. during which the speaker severely handled the government and was finally car ried away bodily by their supporters to corner hall. The party leaders then entered into a long consultation.
 IL was made plain by the constitu- tional democrats that RoditchtefA had meant no personal attack on the hre- mier but had been carried away by his impetuosity. Roditchteff thereupon went to the pavilion and begged Stol- ypin's forgiveness. After an hours intePmission, during which the pas sions of the members subsided. the session was reopened.
 KhomyakOff. the president. sternly scored the rightist members and then proposed to suspend ROditchteff from the sittings. The latter arose and de- clared that he had no intention of nf- lending Anyone but would let his words appear in the records as spoken However, suspension was voted by siXty-ninc majority over the Oc- tOberists and the members of the right

The Present Financial Strinseney in His Opinion Is the Result of Condi- tions.

St Louis. Nov. 30.-Charles G. Dawes of Chicago. ex-comptroller of the currency, was the guest of honor tonight at a dinner by the St. Louis Commercial Club. He made a speech on The Present Financial Situation; Its Causes and Lessons
 He declared that President Roosevelt was not responsible for the recent financial stringency. despite opinions held by critics of the president. He asserted that neither could the respOn- sibility for the money crisis be assign ed to any particular group of specu- lators in Wall street He said the stringency resulted from too great a disproportion between the cash in which debits are redeemable and the debts themselves.

NO RADICAL LEGISLATION
 IN THE SIXTIETH SESSION
Speaker Cannon Declares Against It In His
 Speech of Acceptance
He Especially Warns the Republican Caucus of House Members gainst a Further Generalization of Power In the Government.

Washington. Nov. 30.-Jospeh G. Can non of Illionis. tonight was nominat- ed by the republicans for the third term as speaker of the house. He will be elected to office upon the convening of the house on Monday. The nomina- ton was made by republican caucus which was attended by practically all of the 226 republican members. The caucus was called to order by Repre- sentative Hepburn of Iowa. and within an hours time the nomination, not OnlN of the speaker but of all the officers of the house was completed and an ad- journment was taken. The other off cers chosen were Alexander Mcdowell of Pennsylvania, clerk; Frank B. Lyon of New York. door keeper; Henry Casson of Massachusetts. sergeant al arms: and Samuel W. Langum of Minneapolis, postmaster.
 In accepting the nomination Mir. Cannon dealt with number of public questions. He justified the large ap- propriation of the last congress and indicated very plainly his opposition to any policy looking toward too great a standardization of the functions of gov ernment
 The following were his remarks: Tt has been a decade since the republi- can party assumed responsibility for legislation. The American people are richer by many billions of dollars than they were. Their wealth as represent cd by the income from work and wages is more equitably distributed than ever before. But it has been said, Boast not of tomorrow for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth" We must feel responsible for the govern ment without regard to the past. The recent shock to business that arrested commerce admonishes us to- approach
Arizona republican., 1907-12-01

the task with SObernesS and courage, for We would be judged by the work of the present and not by the record of the past.
 By amendment and otherwise the F1fty-ninth congress enacted much new legislation which is to be tried and tested. Including the permanent appropriations the last session of con- cress appropriated more than s900.- O000O0 for the fiscal year. IL is a startling amount in the abstract but owing to our enormous production and business activity. expenditures have kept within the income of the govern ment without creating new sources of revenue.
 Tn providing for the public service during the Sixtieth congress we should bear in mind that the development Of the country is marvellous though il k still in its infancy. My judgment is that il is nottwise to increase the reV- enues of the government; neither iS it necessary or advisable to transfer cer- tain burdens from the state treasuries to the federal treasury or to foster the cenualizing of power and responsi- bility which of necessity develop qGite fast enough.
 We have been admonishcd by events that it is not time for flights of fancy or for excursions into the realms of experimental legislation. It is my personal judgment that we should hold fast to the principles laid down by our fathers: that the federal government is one of limited powers. but supreme where it has Jurisdiction; that We should leave 10 the people of the states such jurisdiction as is not granted to the federal government and also leave upon them the responsibility and burden of taxation for tue same" ."
