Football Game.

City Honors-Trick Play Gives
Deciding Points.

The first game for the championship

when the East Ends of Moline and
the Independents OF this city met on
Athletic field in Moline The Moline
team was counted out after a hard,
fast game and the locals won with a
score of s to 2. The two points Sc
cured by the East Ends came when
a punt was blocked and the locals re-
gained possession of the ball behind
their own goal line. Both teams
proved to be stronger on the defense
than at carrying the ball and the fight
was for the most part in The center
of the field with little advantage for
either side but enough in favor of the
Independents to give them the game.
Get safety Early.
The Rock Island boys scored two
of their points on the very first kick
off. Coleman kicked the ball so hard
that when Green fumbled it. it rolled
over the line and was declared dead
there. making it a safety for Rock
Island. Moline kicked out from the
% yard line and the ball went back
and forth from one team to the other
until near the end of the half when
Moline recovered the ball on a punt
and got within striking distance OF
the Independents goal. They were
held for downs. however, with very
little gain and when Rock Island got
the ball Mack dropped back to punt
it out of danger but OBrien broke
through and blocked the ball 1t rolled
| back of the line where Mack fell or
it and prevented a touchdown. That
left the score a tie as the safety
counted two points for Moline.

ception when he arrives in Chicago
this evening at 1870 o'clock at the
union depot. Several clubs will greet
him at the station, including the Cook
county democracy and college demo
cratic organizations. They will escort
the candidate amid red fire and torches
westward to Pilsen Garden park. Mr..
Bryan will speak there and at $3.50
O'Clock will be driven in an automobile
to Arcade hall, where he will deliver
another speech. Mr.. Bryan invaded
Illinois early this morning at East St.
Louis and spent the day speaking
along the Alton road from the rear
end of special train which will bring
him to Chicago.
Mr.. Bryan communicated yesterday
with democratic headquarters relating
to charges that he had opposed the
granting of pensions.
Declares for Pensions.
MY attention has been called" said
Mr.. Bryan in his communication, ''to
newspaper clippings which purport &c
contain an extract from speech on
| the subject of pensions, delivered by
me in congress, and the date of the
speech is fixed at Nov. is, 1892. In the
purported speech | am accused of crit
icising the appropriations for pensions
and charged with using language un
friendly to the pensioner. l desire &c
say that | never used the language at
tributed to me, either in congress OF
anywhere else. On the contrary, my
record shows that | favored liberia
pensions to the surviving soldiers ant
their dependents. Congress was no
in session on Nov. Is. 1892, as anyone
can ascertain by examining the records
favor a liberal pension policy"

soon had the ball well into their terri
tory but an exchange OF punts favored
the East Ends who again recovered
the ball when they kicked and Rock
Island regained possession of the ball
on their own "a yard line. Mack
again dropped back to punt out of
danger but instead Of punting he ran
with the ball and circled the right end
of the opponents and then went
through broken field aided by the
rest of his teammates and downed the
ball behind the goal posts. Moline
was completely fooled by the play and
after Mack was loose they had no
chance to get him. as at least four
of the blue jerseys of the Indepeni-
ents were running at his heels pre-
venting any of the opponents from
getting at the man with the ball. Mack
kicked goal and the score was s to >,
where it remained the rest of the half.
Eliminates East Ends.
This game practically eliminated
the East Ends from the race for the
honors of the three cities and it is
now up to the Independents 10 win
