CHAMPIONS GET PRIZE
PRINCETON ALUMNI CUP TO
BUSINESS HIGH SCHOOL.
Presentation Ceremonies Held This
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Glass
of AZ Present.

The spirit of Old Nassau and it's ira
ditions and memories were uppermost in
the halls of the Business High School for
about an hour this morning. when the
local Princeton Alumni Association pre-
scented the silver interscholastic base ball
cup to the schools championship team
for the season of 1909. The name of
Princeton was cheered to the echo by
nearly a thousand boys and girls during
the exercises at every mention Of he
university's place among American insti-
tutions Of learning and its pos ton for
clean sports among American youth.
The occasion, too, was one which gave
the youthful audience an idea Of the de-
votion to their alma mater among the
Princeton alumni. The presentation was
made by A. B. Kelly. president of the
local alumni association. He was accom-
panied by Henry B. Mum of the class
of 1S47, who expressed desire to be
present as one of the oldest. Princeton
graduates in this locality. Mr.. Mum
was introduced lone of Old Nassau s
devoted sons who graduated sixty-three
years ago"

West May Be Troubled.

In the west news of the collapse may
cause uneasiness one banker said yes
terday, because the firm had been a
heavy dealer in Panama canal bonds,
which it had sold to small banks through

100000 Panama bonds Fisk G. Robinson

Rockefeller National City Bank, which
expected 10 get them much cheaper.
The Buffalo and Susquehanna railroad
system, which the firm holds to be direct
" responsible for its failure, runs from
Sycamore, Pa, to Buffalo, with branch
to Addison. Pa. Originally it was built
from Sycamore to Addison and was
known as the Buffalo Susquehanna rail-
road. 1t was constructed by F. II. Good
year who owned lumber lands In PENN
sylvania. He conceived the idea of ex-
tending the road to Buffalo and built
what was called the Buffalo and Susque-
hanna railway, which in turn leased the
railroad.
When Mr. Goodyear built this extern
sion he interested Fisk & Robinson in
the undertaking. He died two years ago,
Just after the road had been completed
His heirs were disinclined to join in his
scheme and Fisk & Robinson year ago
formulated a plan Of reorganization,
which failed.

Fisk is a son of ne founder of the firm
Of Harvey Fisk Sons.
Robinson started his business career
as office boy in Harvey Ffsk's office. He
worked his way up. and i'll 1899 left with
Harvey Edward Fisk to start the firm
which collapsed yesterday.
While in financial circles it was known
the firm had been laboring under a
heavy load of slow investments, or
bonds on properties that were still in the
course of construction, the announce
ment of the failure caused much sur
Prise . It was generally regarded as
a clean failure-one to which no scandal
was attached, and one that in its way
was distinctive from the fact that no
ether houses are likely to be affected.
Fisk & Robinson were not allied with
any other concern. Outside Of their i'm
mediate circle of customers no one is
likely to suffer, it is said.

Mr.. Kelly's Speech.

In presenting the cup to the base ball
nine and to the school for the honors
won on the diamond last summer. Mr.
Kelly told his young auditors that Prince
ton stood for everything which was clean.
good and wholesome in athletics. and
honest and manly in class and lecture
rooms. 1t was this spirit. he said. which
prompted the local alumni association
to offer the championship cup in the
hope that the ideals of the university
might be fostered and followed in the
local high schools.

Whatever may be done to-day IN the

To the Editor % The Tribune
Sir. In your paper 1 note that Mr.. Henry
WhittemOre in trying to prevent injustice
90 Connecticut has done the same 10 a
sister commonwealth. He says: In Mas
sachusetts il was a punishable offence for
a man To kiss his wife on sunday"
This is practising exactly the same
thoughtesS cTeduity regarding Massachu-
sets which ne Justly blames others for
practising as To Connecticut. No such law
was ever made. nor any such public dis
cipline exercised in Massachusetts or any
other community in AmeFica.
IL is an outrage on common sense for
people to keep on reiteratlng this senseless
story. Its one source Is a statement OF
Burnaby in his Travels that Boston
people of credit told him the yarn
about the returned captain and his wife;
that is where the local history got &C.,
and why Americans who will swallow such
stuff should gibe at Englishmen for being
unable to see a Joke is not evident. The
BOstOnian5 were simply exercising the an
cient American privilege OF hOaXing an
English traveller ready 20 believe any
''whOpper'' about America.
The real source Of ;his tenacious adher-
ence 90 the hOary fake" of the blue
laws is The dislike II the new generations
10 the religious orthodoxy Of the elder and
consequent assumption that the latter had
no common sense and no decent motives.
plus the wish 10 have an easy missile for
their present representatives To shrek
blue laws whenever any social regula-
ton Is undertaken saves the exercise Of
brains. FORREST MORGAN.

by Count Zeppelin would mean an aver
