milk dealer using the bottles of an other dealer came up in the city court yesterday and resulted in a convis- tion.
 David Krall and Harry Leeds, two Redfield street mill1men, pleaded gull ty to charges of violating the bottle law and were fined 30 cents for elcn branded bottle found in their posses sion belonging to other milkmen, and the costs. Krall was prosecuted on five different counts and Leeds on six.
 The arrests of Kral1 and Leeds were made upon complaint of J. Birney Tut tie. attorney for the New Haven Milk Exchange, who furnished the city at- torney with evidence so conclusive that the accused did not want to stand trial.
 Attorney Futile stated that the milk exchange would ask the court to inAict jail penalty upon the next milkman who is found guilty of unlawful use of bottles and that the exchange is de- termined 10 put an end to the practioe. As it was the first offense for the ac- cused and the first case coming te- fore the court the assistant city attor- ney recommended a fine as provided by statue of 50 cents for each bottle W th- out any jail penalty.
 "The small fine allowed by the sta tutes is lamentable," said Judge Math- ewson in passing sentence. Something must be done to stop this pirating of bottles and the extreme penalty will be given if to-day's warning does not put~a stop to 1t.
 Attorney J. Birney Futile, counsel for the milk exchange, dec.ared that the milkmen of this city lost thousands of bottles during the past year.

CORNELL DEFEATED

They Were Clearly outpIayed-one
Player In the Hospital.
Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-History re-
peated itself on Franklin Field, Penn
sylvana again winning the annual
football game with Cornell, the score
this year being ~ to 4. 1t was Penn
sylyana's 18th victory in Is games
played with the Ithacans. the New
York state team having won one con-
test and tied another The game was
finely played. bringing out many spec.
tacular features which were greatly
enjoyed by the nearly 10000 persons
who filed the big stands. Cornell fully
expected to win. The team had a good
seasons record. the men were trained
to the hour. and 1t was expected that
Pennsylvania, which had been a little
erratlc this year, would not be able
10 Withstand the aggressive work OF
the Comedians. So full OF confidence
was Cornell that her supporters turned
the tide Of betting in her favor
But the teams were not on the field
Ave minutes before it was seen that
Pennsylvania. barring accidents and
hukes of the game. was likely to win.
She went at Cornell hammer and
tongs from the jump, and all during
the first half the play was close to
Cornelrs goal. The score Of the first
half. 6 to 0, does not indicate Pennsyl'
vania's strength IN that period. Twice
the Quakers carried the ball over the
Cornell line by hard work. only to have
the touchdowns disallowed because OF
holding. Once they lest the ball two
feet from the goal on downs, and an
other time when the ball was only two
yards from n score they we're again
penallzed for holding. In this half the
Quakers were penalized Is yards and
held Cornell 10 one first down. Penn
sylvania clearly outplayed Cornell in
this half. and yet. owing to her hold
ing procllvities was able to make but
one touchdown.
Conditions were practically reversed
In the second half. although Pennsyl-
vania made another touchdown TO a
field goal by Cornell. In this half the
Ithacans seemed to gain strength and
several times endangered the Pennsyl-
vania goal.
Cornell's field goal came late In the
second half. Cornell got the ball In
mldheld and worked It to the 23-yard
line. Unable to make further Roadway,
Caldwell, who had replaced Gardner,
dropped back to the 35-yard line and
kicked a beautiful goal at the difficult
angle.
Ray c. Van Orman, right end Cor
nell. is in the University Of Pennsylva-
MIA hospital. suffering from a slight
conclusion Of the brain. received in
the game with Pennsylvania. Van Or
man was rendered unconscious in a
scrimmage, and after being partly re-
vlved was carried TO the Cornell dress
ing room In the University Of Pennsyl-
vanla gymnasium, where he fully re-
covered consciousness. Later he be-
came worse and he was removed to the
