The result of the bond issue election
as to the civic center idea was accepted
as conclusive by some of the board
members. while others pointed out that
the majority OF the small number Of
voters who thought it worth while to
express an opinion were for the crea-
ton OF the civic center.
Chairman Jennings of the finance

at per cent. While all the members
favored getting the municipal depart
ments back into permanent quarters as
soon as possible, jennings, Johnston
and others expressed the opinion that
the majority given the civic center idea
should at least warrant putting the city
hall proposition before the people again
in alternative form and unhampered by
the submission of other projects.
Both held that the merits OF the civic
center proposition had not as yet been
put thoroughly before the people. and
that should the city hall election be set
for one week after the municipal cleo
ton in November the voters would
know the character of the men charged
with the duty of building the hall and
would be in better position to decide
ifnon the issue.

day Both sessions of court were de-
voted to the introduction of a mass of

That remark is most insulting and
malicious blackgusrdism." was the man
ner in which Assistant District Attor-
ney William Hof Cook characterized
sneering reference by Lewis Bying-
ton, chief counsel for the defense. to
the appearance of the prosecutor as a
witness in the trial of TreadweH for

stand for 4 final ordeal today, to ex-
plain away II possible the damaging
testimony given by the witnesses for
her husband in her suit for separation
and alimony OF s250.oo0 year.
II was a day OF denials. beginning
with the reading OF the deposition of
Dustin FarnOm. who denied all aIlega-
tons OF improper conduct with Mrs.

repeated denials OF practically every
thing in word or action attributed to
her by the witnesses for the other side.
DENIES ALL CHARGES
For two warm hours Mrs Gould an
sWered the carefully framed questions
OF her counsel repudiating with a
monotonous fat denial all the testi-
mony charging her with excessive
drinking. profanity or other impro-
priety- Chauneurs. grooms. stabIemen.
shopkeepers. laborers. and other
servants and employees were alike
branded with the short and ugly
epithet She never drank to excess
never used profsne language. never
forgot her dignity as mistress Of Castle
Gould and never overstepped the
bounds OF prOpriety. according to her
statements.
She told her counsel she never tried
10 hitch up a pair of mules. never or
dered dishes and food thrown from her
s.. Regis apartments. never referred TO
Dustin Fsrnum as My new beau"
never qusrreled with her husband be-

drawn in the deposition offered in be-
half Of Farnum. who was unable 10

REV. QUATMAN DEAD
Expires at Sidney, O., After a
Lingering Illness, Loved
BY All Who Knew Him.
WAS WELL KNOWN LOCALLY

Word has been received by Henry
J. Pohlmeyer of this city to the effect
that his cousin, the Rev. Father Fran
CHS NJ. Quatman. aged 60 years died at
his home in Sidney, O., yesterday af-
ter a lingering illness. Father Quat-
man is we'll known in this city, where
he frequently visited, and his many
local friends will greatly deplore his
demise. The deceased was the last of
three brother priests to die within the
last four years. He has been pastor
in the Holy Angels church at Sidney
for the past 80 years and was very
we'll liked, being a man of rare quail
tiles and attachments. One Of the
deceased's brothers, the Rev. Father
Joseph NJ. Quatman, was pastor of the
Saint Henry's church at Cincinnati
and died about four years ago. while
the other, the Rev. Father Augustan
NJ. Quatman died less than a year
ago. He was pastor of the Francis De
Sales church at Walnut Hills, Cincin-
natl. Both were prominent in the do
ceses at Cincinnati. The funeral of
the Rev. Father Francis NJ. Quatman
will probably take place Friday morn
ing at Sidney. The burial will be at

Christians Injuries Prove Fatal;
Georgetown Cancels Schedule

Washington, D. c., Nov. 15-Foot-
ball claimed another victim Sunday
in the death of Archer Christian. the
Virginia half back. who was injured
in the last minute Of play in Satur-
days game with Georgetown. His
death will probably prove the knell Of
football. both at his own university
and at Georgetown. Already the ath-
letic council Of the latter institution
has Cancelled the remaining games of
the seasons schedule, and similar &C
ton is certain at the University of
Virginia
Christian had been the center of
nearly every one of Virginia's often
sive plays. Two or three times he had
been knocked out. but he battled man.
fully till near the end of the second
half. At signal for plunge
through Georgetown's right tackle the
ball was given to Christian. With
characteristic dash he sprang at. the
Georgetown line. Right tackle had
previously proved the vulnerable
point in the Glue and Gray phalanx
This time 1t held like stone wall.
Christian was stopped. His head
was flung back and collided with the
shoulder of supporting player of his
own team. The two elevens piled up,
with Christian at the bottom of the
heap. When the players arose the
half back was found to be uncon-
scious. He was carried TO the side
lines by Trainer Lanigan and two of
the Virginia substitutes. The game
continued but minute longer, and
then the cheering crowds trooped off
the field.
Christian was taken directly to the
operating room Of the hospital and DR..
Harvey Gushing Of Baltimore, was tel
ephoned to come at once to perform
the operation. He arrived in an hour,
and. assisted by DR.. s. H. Watt. made
three missions at the base of the
