REBELS OVERPOWER
 ZELAYA'S FORCES
Special from United. Press.)

Bluefields. Nicaragua, Nov. 2o.-It was reported here today from the in terior that the revolutionists have en- tered the provinces of Segovia and Matagalpa in the northern part of Nicaragua and are now practically in control of the territory. The residents of the provinces in many cases have joined the revolutionists, deposing the Zelayan officials who heretofore be- Heved their position safe.
 Matagalpa, and Segovta were consid- cred two of the strongest Zelayan points in the republic and with them in the hands of the rebels, Zelaya's pos ition becomes more precarious-
 The revolutionists have occupied the large cities in each province including Segovia and Matagalpa- There was sharp fighting at4 4both places accord ing to reports received here and Zela- ya's forces made a hard stand against the rebels. They were unable to hold out however, in the face of reinforce ments who are constantly joining the revolutionists' force.
 The government posts of which there are several among the mountains were captured by the rebels with the stores and ammunition This will seriously hamper Zelaya,s operations.

Catcher Spencer Goes
 To New York Giants

1t is reported semi-ohicially that Catcher Spencer has been turned over to the Giants by the Boston Red Sox
 IT this is a fact McGraw will get a first class backstop Spencer made his major league bow several years ago with the St. Louis Browns and did excellent work behind the bat. Last winter he was traded to Boston to- gether with s5,o00. for the release of Catcher Criger and quickly Jumped in to popular favor in the Hub because of his splendid catching, throwing and oatting- But one day last summer Spencer quietly packed his grip and deserted the Red Sox without impart- ing a reason to anybody. The Boston club finally permitted him to finish the season with the St. Paul American Association club. Spencer at his best Is a better catcher than Schlei or Mey- CTS and if McGraw has landed him at least one weak spot in the New York team will be greatly strengthened.

WHEELS WITHIN WHEELS IN CASES IN
 HARTFORD COURT
Three Parties in Interest Are Plaintiffs in Three Different. Actions.

The suit of Mrs Emma J. Treuting
 or this city against Mrs. Agnes Ben
 kert of Hartford and against Anton
 Treuting who is husband of the plain
 tin. and with whom Mrs. Treuting
 lives here. was before Judge William
 $. Case in the superior court in Hart
 ford. MT. Treuting Is foreman of
 the Crane Valve Co, residing at 153
 Prospect street. There is about as
 musch involved litigation as anyone could ask for, as there are three diff ferent lawsuits in all. each of the par ties named being plaintiff in one or other of them
 The action before the court was for a foreclosure of mortgage of twelve acres of land in the vicinity of Charter Oak Park. The property belonged to John c. Benkert, who was the late husband of Agnes Benkert and who 1t had been regarded for many years that the will gave to Mrs. Benkert a life use of the property and that after she died the property was to go to Anton Treuting who was Mir. Ben
 When Benkert died there was not sufficient money to pay his funeral expenses. That was thirteen or four teen years ago, and the property was mortgaged to the Mechanics' Savings bank for s650. The bank transferred the note and mortgage to William E. Burnham, who transferred them to Mrs Treuting. Treuting and Mrs. Benkert both refuse to pay the inter est on the mortgage. as they are in volved in litigation, and the total due Mrs. Treuting under her mortgage Is S740.3o. The lawyers agreed that there was no necessity for having an early day for foreclosure fixed as 1t was agreed between them that the property is worth between s3 500 and s4.0oo and if the suits pend ing between Mrs Benkert and Treut- ing are disposed of there Is belief that a decision in those cases will bring the unpaid interest from either Mrs. Benkert or Treuting.
 Treutings suit against Mrs. Ben kert is for the recovery of about s1 . 500, which he alleges he paid in the way of taxes. interest on the mortgage and Improvements. and he claims that these charges should have been paid | Tor by the life tenant. Mrs. Benkert | nas brought a suit against Treuting, | and she asks for the construction of | he win of her husband She contends | hat under the language of the will | rreuting has no interest but that the | will gives the property to her to do ab- | what she wants to with 1t. All of the cases are pending in the superior court.

JOHNNY KLING
 NOT AN OUTLAW
The Cub Catcher Would Become q
 Manager.

Chicago. Nov. 2o.-Two new features of the status of Catcher John Kling were uncovered yesterday by Presi- dent Charles Murphy of the Cubs. One is that Kling is not an outlaw and is not barred from organized baseball Tor four years and the other Is that he reSly does not. want to play with any other club than the Cubs unless ne can be manager.
 IL has just been learned that Kling would have figured in a trade with cincinnati. by which Pitcher Spade would have come to .he local club had President Garry Hermann of the heds been able to make satisfactory arrangements with holdout player. King was willing to go to the Ohio city, but only as manager.

 As to Kings standing Murphy d. clared that the backstop had the per mission of the Chicago National club to.

FOOTBALL

Although Harvard and Yale do not nave a monopoly of football interest to-day, their game at Soldiers Field Is not only the big gridiron fixture for the day but the most momentous con test of the season While 1t will not be the finale it will be the climax of the 1909 season of the most popular of college sports. if the crowds which at tend are gauge of popularity. and it isn't likely that a majority of people would go unless they liked the game. Football Is the most attractively poou- lar of college sports whatever it's risk of injury to those who engage in it. To-day's game at Cambridge is the culminating point of that interest. and 1t is no exaggeration to say that 100 900 persons would see 1t were there room for them- The best two elevens in the East or in the country will en- gage in it.
 While Harvard and Yale are locking horns an extensive schedule will bs fought out or other fields. New York Is well provided for with three i'm portant contests-Brown vs- the Ind- fans. Fordham vs. Holy Cross and New York University vs. Union. The biggest game of the season in tha West also will be decided-Minnesota and Michigan. The schedule is as fol- lowF:
 Harvard vs. Yale, at Cambridge.
