(Snecial to THE TINES.

Indiana Harbor, Ind, Oct. 30.-Judge
William A. Reiland will this afternoon
hear the evidence in the case of the
state of Indiana against Nick Golubich
of the Oklahoma district. The defend
ant is accused by Emil Papovich, as
complaining witness with having at
tempted to assault his sister, Anna
Papovich. several nights ago Accord
ing to the story told by the complain
ant Nick entered the Papovich home
while no one was present but the girl,
who is about % years of age.
After a few minutes conversation he
grasped the girl by her arm and at
tempted to attack her. She resisted his
attacks successfully, and her cries for
assistance brought several neighbors
to her rescue. AS soon as the asail-
ant heard them approaching he re-
leaed the girl and ran from the house.
via the rear door method.
Anna did not wish to prosecute the
amorous Golubich until last evening

threats against her home She then de-
cided to allow the law to take its
course Golubich was arrested early

The winner will have the best claim TO
the championship of the west, and flc:l
present indications $4,000 people will see
the title decided.
The nipping football freshness is in
the air and all other conditions are Just
right for a corking struggle. The
teams are fit as fddles, their hospital!
list has melted away to nothing at all.
aand when the fighting is over the root
ers for the victors should he able to
hold their heads high and say that the
better team won.
Chicago has in the past been repre-
resented by far superior teams than the
one which Coach Stage has prepared
to meet the onslaughts of the gophers,
and the Minnesota warriors of yore
were mightier men than those at pres
ent under the tutelage of DR.. Williams.
But both teams stand for the old tradi-
lions, and the spoils of war are as rich
today as when the all-star elevens of
a few years ago were buckling on the
arnOr.

KETCHEL WEIGHS 1877:
MANAGER is HEDGING
Reason for O'COnnor Causing Hitch In
Deal With Papke Is shown.

San Francisco, Oct. 30.-Reasons for
Manager Joe OConnor disputing over
terms with Billy Papke were shown
to-day when Stanley Ketchel stepped
on the scales at CrolFs Garden, in pri-
vate, and was found to weigh 1S7
pounds. When the matter leaked out,
through one of his rubbers, O'Connor
admitted that Ketchel was far above
weight, but said that he would reduce
to the middle weight limit easily
O'Connor repeated today that Ketchel
would meet Langford if there was
money enough in sight. Stanley looks
so ponderous, however, that his friends
are wondering how much reducing will
weaken him. 1t is said that he has
not lived a quiet and retiring life in
the last few weeks and that his con-
VITALITY has resulted in his tremendous
increase in weight.
There was CONSERVATION in the Pap
Ike and Coffroth camps when the facts
about Ketchel's weight became known
1t is thought that OConnor started
raising obstacles over the money prop
osition to have some excuse on which
to draw out of the bout if inclined.
