TO GIVE TROPHY
TO THE BOYS CLUB
Father Munster Tired Of De-
lay, Will Dispose Of Disputed
Athletic Prize

The controversy between the Irish
American Athletic Association and the
Germantown Boys Club arising from tho
athletic meet held at wawaset Park on
September 4. viii probably be settled
through sheer WEAKNESS.
Father Munster, OF st. Patrick's r. c..
Church, under the auspices Of whose ath-
letic association the meet was held. said
this morning that he would give the cup
involved In the controversy to the Ger
mantown Boys Club, II the Irish-Ameri-
can Association Of New York would not
protest. In doing this, his purpose will be
to settle a wearisome situation rather
than to proclaim the Germantown club
victorious.
It win be recalled that the Irish-Ameri-
can Athletic Association won the meet
on points, but that the Germantown Boys
Club, its nearest competitor protested
that the hammer throw and the five-mile
run won by the Irish A. c. were special
events and therefore not countable for
points. The Germantown Club therefore
claimed the cup.
The referee Eugene c. Bonniwen, Of
Philadelphia, did not make a decision at
that time, saying, It Is reported, that he
would act according to a dec.s.on from
James e. Sullivan, president Of the Amer
lean Athletic Union. The trophy contested
for was then turned over to Father Mum
ster and It has been in his hands since
In the meanwhile. President Sullivan has
given an unofficial decision awarding the
cup to the Irish-American Association.
Bonniwell, however. # is said, refused to
abide by his statement made at the meet
ana would not award the cup to the as
ISOLATION. He subsequently neglected to
bring the affair before the Middle At
lantic Section OF the A. A. T., aud the
controversy has accordingly remained un-
settled.
Father Munster said this morning that
he would write the Irish-American Ath-
letic Association as to the ACCESSIBILITY OF
settling tho disagreement by giving the
cup to the Germantown Boys Club. He
felt sure that the association would agree
to such action, since its position in tho
athletic world could not be affected BY so
small a matter and since the controversy
had become 50 tircsome

GIRL BRUTALLY
SLAIN NEAR TROY
Drugged and Assaulted on a
Lonely ROad---LittIe Clue

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
TROY, n. Y, Nov. 1s.-Sheriff
Besch and detectives from District At
torney Sanford's office are today en-
deavoring to run down the murderer
who yesterday drugged and assaulted
Caroline G. Gorgan and left her dy-
ing on the lonely road outside Of her
home in Green Island. So far they
have but little to work on. A mans
glove, torn neclStie and a small empty
vial are all they have found by which
the murderer could be traced and they
are today trying to trace the girls
movement after she left the place
where she was employed yesterday
afternoon.
That death followed q brutal as
sault was established by the autopsy
held by Coroner's Physician silcocks
and he found a powerful drug pres
ent in the stomach. The girl had
swallowed a large quantity of this.
The contents of the stomach have
been sent TO an Albany chemist for
analysis. The police believe that the
girl was given knockout drops at a
point some distance from where the
body was found. They believe that
when it was found she was dead and
the murderer carried the body to the
ash heap on the outskirts Of the town,
where it was found by two children
at play.
Miss Gorgan was % years old and the
police declare that she had no men
friends with the exception Of a young
resident of Cohoes to whom she was
engaged to be married. He was with
her Tuesday night and left her at her
home about midnight. He is aiding

An Increase in the Water Bonds of
$14,5oo Carried at Special Election.

An Increase in the Water Bonds of
$14,5oo Carried at Special Election.
Gregory County News: A special
election for the issuance of $14.500 ad-
'ditional water bonds was held Tuesday
in this city. There was a light vote on
the proposition for the reason that all
were favorable to the proposition, so
to speak. Especially those who ever
have the constant welfare of Dallas
uppermost in their minds. There were
ninety-five votes cast, eighteen of
which were cast against the PROPOSE
ton and all of these in one ward. This
will mean immediate extensive inn
provements on our water plant, the
extension of mains to all parts of the
city, the erection of a tower and tank
and improved machinery to care for
the increasing demand on a plant now
so severely taxed. Previous to the
voting of bonds new we'll was sunk
which has an abundance of good, pure
water, The council now has matters
in hand to push the work of improve
ment with all possible speed.
