accompanied by drafts or money or
ders can be honored. Blocks of seats
have been ordered for sale in Chicago,
Milwaukee and Eau Claire. and IT is
expected that there will not be a re-
served seat left unsold on the morning
of the game. No general admission
tickets will be cold elsewhere than at
the gate, and these will. admit only
to seats at the ends of the field, all
of the space at the sides being con-
verted into reserved seats to acconGno-
date the crowd.
TIC increase the seating capacity suf-
ficiently, it has been necessary to erect
hIeachers in front of the grandstand,
low enough not to interfere with the
view. These and the two huge bleach
ers to be put up at the east and west
ends of the field will fill the space
heretofore occupied by automobiles
tally-hos and carriages, so that there
will be no opportunity to view the
game from vehicles.

7lbbets Glucosy Letters are
Made Public BY His Nemesis

New York. June 5.-Wnile Oliver A.
Tibbets. rich sporting man OF Chi
cago, is at the Hotel Aston with his
bride. who before her last marriage
was Susie Lee, once well known emo

he would like TO continue his honey
moon, Miss Katherine A. Carney, the
pretty little woman who followed him
here from the West and caused his ar
rest on q warrant alleging q breach Of
promise and other things, is cozily To-
Gated at the Grand Union, a few blocks
away, consulting with her New York
lawyer.
BY the terms Of contract which,
Miss Carney says, Mr.. Tibbets violat-
ed, she was to surrender a bundle Of
letters signed ''Tibbie" to their author
and he was to pay her $1,000. But.
according to her account, the note for
So. OOO which he gave her has never
been paid and she, having cannily saw
ed back a few of the more glucosy Of
the aforementioned missives, is now,
since her suit has been started, turn
ing them loose one by one.
Here is the newest to be liberated,
it having been handed out to the re-
porters by Miss Carney with her own
hand this afternoon:

ing to Miss Carney. when Tibbets fell
in love with his present wife, VIII had
