What Coaches saw.

Kennedy and Mosoe saw the Nebraska
Ames mill at Omaha, but 1t was no secret. no
more than It was a secret when Assistant
Coach Borg came to Lawrence to watch the
Jsyhawkers in action against Washburn.
The only difference being that Kansas did
not unfold anything new against Wash
burn. which Nebraska had to bring In all
their fancy plays against Ames. with the
one result, Borg learned nothing and
Kennedy learned II all.
By defeating Missouri Thursday Kansas
will take their sixth successive victory
from the Tigers and clinch the Missouri
valley championship for 1905. Missouri
made considerable championship noise
earlier In the season, but the dose fed them
by Ames has hushed It all. Kennedy says
II he can keep overconfidence out OF the
men he can trot them on the battle field
Thursday in as good condition as when
they met Nebraska and with that there can
be but one outcome.

Team Drops Out of sight.

The team will not return to Lawrence
until after the Thanksgiving vacation and
thereby hangs a mystery. From now until
Wednesday they will drop out OF sight. 1t
has been known at Lawrence for several
DAYS that Manager Lansdon had planned
a few days OF quiet rest for the boys be-
tween the Iowa and Missouri games, but
no one but the manager and coaches know
where their lair is to be. The object being
to get the team away from the influence
of an excited and overconfident student
body.
Much indignation is being manifested by
the student body over the ipsinuations COM
ing from the Cornhusker camp that the
Kansans won their victory through knowl-
edge of their opponents signals, gained by
having a spy in the Lincoln field during
the week preceding the Kansas game.
Nothing can be farther from the truth
and It is the belief that such a story
originated from some tyro would-be sport
who lost a few OF his fathers dimes or
the game and has not yet learned how to
act when he guesses wrong.
The coaches and team give no credit tc
the reports that the stories are coming
from the Nebraska management,

Comparative scores.

The 10 to 0 score that Monilow's men piled
up on Washington, forces admittance that
the Tigers will prove a formidable foe, but
that Washington game is just where the
Missouri boys went foolish in the hour OF
victory and used all their fancy plays. for
the benefit of ex-Captain Rouse OF Kansas
who saw the game from the side lines. The
report the ex-captain brought back to the
Jayhawker camp did not tend to cheer
the Dread Braves. The eX-captain says
Missouri has the strongest team she has
had in five years land that he was really
surprised at the class of foot ball the
Tigers were putting up" They are ~psrticu-
larly strong on Interference and running
ends, and 1 am not so confident of win
ming the Thanksgiving game as l was be-
fore l saw Missouri play"
Coach Kennedy says. III he can get his
men pointed as they were in the Nebraska
game, there can be but one result and that
wont tend to give the Tigers much JOY.
The student body celebrated for two days
over the Nebraska victory and then started
the 'cry Of " We must beat Missouri"
Thursday the Kansas team held their fare
well practice on McCook field. The gates
were left open till 4 o'clock and a bowling
mob of enthusiastic admirers came out to
see the boys run a few Of the fancy stunts
that put the kinks in Nebraska. Promptly
at 4 O'Clock the coaches asked the crowd to
retire and the gates locked and secret
practice resumed in order to lose not a
miunte in perfecting the new plays used in
the Iowa game. Several veterans will play
their farewell game for the red and blue
at Kansas City next Thursday. Among
them is Carl Pleasant, the fighting end,
who will graduate next spring. Billy

for the last time. Myers is another whose
place will be hard to fill. None will be
more missed, however. than Captain Pat"
Crowell and Tub" Reed. These two have
been team mates in almost every game for
four years and few men have done as much
for the red and blue as either OF these.
Reed did not appear against Iowa, as the
three-year conference ruling kept him out.
However, he will be at the twisting of the
Tigers tail Thursday. Barring accidents
the Kansans should go onto the field
Thursday in the pink Of condition despite
their two hard games of the past two
weeks.

About eight weeks ago Mr.. Yetter
was in this city and was visiting his
friends here. stating at the time that
he was on his way west and would
go north to Alaska for a visit to the
great mining camp of Nome. where he
and his company had extensive inter-
ests.
He left San Francisco on the steam
.er Ohio bound for Nome. the latter
part of May. AS the vessel approached
the Behring sea it was greatly imped-
ed by wonderful ice foes. Along about
June / the vessel was caught in
great sea of ice and frozen in. and for
a period of six weeks the vessel was
in the clutch of the great sea of ice
flowing out into the Pacific. The ves-
sci drifted far out into the Pacific and
there seemed no help for it; and it
was impossible. though every effort
was made. for the Ohio to cut Itself
out of the foe.

IMPORTANT DECISION.

An important decision, affecting
thousands of acres of land in Colorado
was received this morning from Secre-
tary of the Interior Garfield.
His decision reverses a contest on
desert lands heard here last year, in
which Jesse NJ Acree of Denver con-
tested the right of Mamie NJ. jackson
to take up public land. which Acree
claimed was good for agricultural
purposes as desert land
The interior department says there is
no sufficient reason to hold this tract
an exception to the long and well es-
tablished general rule. and that it is
desert land in character. and thereby
reverses the decision or the land COM
missioner. who held that the testimony
showed the land in question was used
for agricultural purposes without arti-
fetal irrigation.
Acree sought to prevent Mamie
Jackson from filing on the land. which
he was simply holding and had not
filed upon. The government takes him
to task for his actions and charges
him with untruthfulness in several
observation-disclosures Times.

FOR DEFENDING HAYWOOD
BIG FEES WE'RE PAID.

1t cost the Western Federation of
Miners nearly S2OO.OOO to fight for the
freedom of William ID. Haywood and
George A. Pettibonc ut Boise City,
Idaho, according to the report of the
nry-trcasurer. read Mt the annual
convention.
OF this amount the lawyers secured
nearly half the fees and expenses of
Richardson x Hawkins amounting to
over s5000O while Clarence S Dar-
row took back nearly 100000 to Chi
cago. President Meyer himself receiv-
ed $4,000 for expenses and other
causes. and Haywood was given close
to $4,000 for the same reason.
The first Adams case cost the feder-
alton $4,000.
That the past year has made heavy
inroads on the purse strings of the

the organizations is shown by an
alarming deficit. The expenditures

Principles, Not Men.

Albany, June 19.-The executive committee Of the
Home Rule Democracy, appointed at the so-called
Utica conference. met to-day and, according to a
statement given out by the chairman. w. G. Rice.
1t was determined that its work within party

gained in state convention and state committee"
The statement continues
This movement is not for or against any man or
set Of men. 1t is not anti-anybody. but pro-home
rule. Principles, men. is the platform of the

It was also decided that in documents and cor
respondence emphasis should be laid upon the fact
that the fall state convention repudiate and
rescind the revolutionary and arbitrary action of
the last state convention and that the delegates to
the fall state convention choose state COM
mittee in accordance with the accepted party usage

cate the passage of the act to provide for the

ROADS TO LOWER GRAIN RATES.
Trunk Line Officials Intimate as Much to
Produce Exchange Committee.

The special committee representing the grain and
steamship interests of the Produce Exchange, ap-
pointed last Tuesday to try TO obtain concessions
on grain rates to this port, held conference yes
terday with the officers of the trunk line railroads
Representatives Of the grain and steamship trades
OF Boston. Philadelphia and Baltimore also
present at the meeting. which took place at the
offices OF the Trunk Line Association.
While conclusion reached. the railroad
men intinated that they would make concessions
which would enable the grain and steamship
trades IN the cities mentioned to meet the COM
petition Of Montreal, which has been getting the
bulk OF the export grain trade since navigation
opened. Their decision will be made known some
time next week.
The principal argument for the shippers was
made by James F. Parker, g member of the Pro-
duce Exchange committee. He pointed out that at
present st cost at least two cents more a bushel
TO put grain board ship at New York than at
Montreal and said that while the shippers did not
expect the railroads 10 make the rate between
Buffalo and this port the that of the all
water route from the lakes to Montreal, they
hoped for reduction Of ~ cents from the exist
ing rate Of So cents g bushel. Such rate he de-
clared. would enable the shippers here. by taking
advantage Of the improved banking facilities at
this centre. TO compete successfully with the Ca
madam city.
The extent 10 which the export grain trade has
been diverted Montreal is shown by the fact
that out of last weeks total wheat exports of
100000 bushels, $4,000 bushels shipped from
that city. The action Of the White Star Line in
laying off FIVE Of its freight steamers last week
attributed in large measure 20 this diversion
Of grain shipments.
