PLAY MODIFIED GAME

New York, Dec. 22.-The athletic di-
rectors Of the New York public schools
plan to revise the football rules to suit
themselves. They believe that by
eliminating certain features Of play they
can produce a game in which the element
Of danger viii be greatly lessened. The
chairman Of the committee in charge saws
in statement made public today:
We shall take up the rules as the
intercollegiate committee leaves them and
wherever their decision does not appeal
TO us we shall modify or alter the regu-
latiOns to fit our needs. We shall sub
stitute some of our own provisions as
necessary for boys Of high school age,
for what is physically proper exercise
for older men is not always suitable for
younger ones. We hope to produce a
game which win be safe enough to war
rant the readoption Of football in our
schools"

Foraker Takes Another Twist

and Taft

Washington, D. c., Jan. ia spir-
tied speech by Senator Foraker of Ohio,
on the use of secret service men for
private investigation of the Browns
vile affair, was the feature of interest
in the senate today. Mr.. Foraker laid
aside his manuscript tseveral times dur
ing his address to inject remarks that
were pointedly aimed at the president,
although he refrained from the mention
Of Mr.. Roosevelt's name.
Evidently referring to the president
he said that men who make charges and
insinuations will some time ''be where
they can be called to account"
Mr. Lodge replied to MIR. Foraker's
remarks, declaring that the use of the
So, 100000 fund appropriated III 1899 as
all emergency war fund for the presi-
dent during the Spanish war in the en-
ploylnent of detectives on the Browns
vile case was not in violation of the

Mr.. Foraker endeavored to have a
day fixed for voting on his bill for the
reenlistment of the discharged soldiers
of the 25th regiment, but Mr. Warren,
chairman of the committee on military
affairs, insisted on the postponement
of such agreement to future day.

scratched the parafIin is first rubbed of

Matches treated as above would be
very useful on camping or canoeing

Since more rubbing is required to light
them than the ordinary match, 1t
would be practically impossible to set

Hearst's Bunch Held for
CriminalIy Libeling Son
Of Oil Magnate
They Secure Writ Of habeas
Corpus and Released
on Parole

New York, Jan. l2.-On the ground
that the publication of their names as
the responsible heads of the Star Pub
fishing company, which publishes Will
liam r. Hearst's New York American,
made them personally liable for libelous
matter appearing in that newspaper,
Magistrate Morse today found S. S.
Carvalho, Bradford Morrill, and Ed
ward S. Clark guilty of criminally libel
ing John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and they
are technically committed to the TombS
prison.
On notice that the defendants would
apply for pabeas corpus writ in order
to test the validity of the law under
which they had been sentenced, the
magistrate allowed them to remain in
the private reception room of the pris-
on while their counsel, Clarence ].
Shearn, went before Justice Davis in
the supreme court and obtained the
writ. Upon the granting of the writ
Carvelho, Morrill, and Clark were pa
rolled in the custody of their counsel
until Thursday morning when argument
on the writ will be heard.
The offense for which Carvelho, Nor
rill and Clark were found guilty of
criminal libel was the publication in the
American of an article charging Mr..
Rockefeller with having been instru-
mental in the institution of a system
of peonage. by certain breakfast food
company in Illinois. Young Rockefel-
Ter himself took the stand to testify in
the case and would not withdraw the
charge even after the newspaper had
printed a retraction.
