FOOTBALL CHANGES.
Game Is Divided Into Four Quarters
Hereafter.

New York. Aug. 1s.=After labor
lasting nearly all summer, the football
rules committee has made public the
rules which are to govern the course
of the game during the season of
1910. Changes adopted are revoiu-
tionary in character and calculated to
minimize greatly the danger of fatal
accidents existing under the old rules
For one thing the time of play is di-
vided into four periods OF fifteen min
utes each instead of two IS minute
halves. The usual intermission of Is
minutes is maintained between the sec
ond and third period but an intermis-
sion of three minutes only is allowed
between the first and second and third
and four periods
During this short intermission no
player will be allowed to leave the
field nor will anyone be permitted to
come on the field save the trainer.
At the beginning of the second and
fourth periods the team change goals,
but the down, the relative spot on the
down. the possession of the ball and
the distance to be gained remain as
they were at the conclusion of the pre-
ceding period Of play.
Another radical change is that gov
erning the flying tackle. This has been
entirely eliminated by new ruling
which provides that a player must
have at least one foot on the ground
when tackling.
This years rules provide that play

Uncle Joe Says Kansas Must Take Care
of Itself for Two Years.

Cissna Park, Ill, Aug. 1s.-Speaker
j. G. Cannon told the old settlers OF
Iroquois county that he probably was
addressing them for the last time. His
speech which had been regarded as the
opening of the Illinois congressional
campaign contained little of the old
time vigor of the representative of the
Eighteenth Illinois district. Instead.
he talked of pioneer days and con-
trasted them unfavorably with the
present The political tinge only was
introduced when he asserted vehe-
mently that the protective policy of
Lincoln, Grant and Garfield was re-
sponsible for the improvement

NO MORE FOR DRENNING.
Commissioners Allow Last Claim in
Sewer Scandal.

F. G. Dreaming, ex-city attorney, will
have hard shedding trying to get any
more money out of the city in his Fifth
ward sever scandal case.
At a meeting of the city board of
commissioners this morning when Il
bill from Mr.. Dreaming for engineering
work was presented, Commissioner
Bone moved that the bill be allowed
and added:
But 1 will say right now that an
other bill Of this kind will never get
through my office This is the last
amount we are going to pay for this
work"
It seems that the city officials believe
Dreaming has been fooling them on GER
tain bills. It is said that he sent in one
bill which was supposed to cover the
entire work. Then he sent in another
for work completed long before the
first bill was presented. This, the city
commissioners charge, is an injustice

PAY DAY PLAN is DEFEATED.
City Employees Are Not to Be Paid
Twice a Month.

The employees of the city will not re-
ceive two pay days a month That was
decided by the city commissioners this
morning when they defeated the propo-
sition presented by Commissioner Mill
er and supported by Mayor Billiard.
Mr.. Miller claimed that it was for the
good of the employees and the mer-
chants of the city that pay day be
instituted every two weeks The mayor
thought the same. But the rest of the
commissioners believed that it would
be an extra expense and additional
trouble for the city to establish two
pay days a month and they defeated
the resolution.
The 800 employees of the city will
hear this news with disappointment
Since this resolution has been before
the board of city commissioners consid-
cradle influence has been brought to
bear upon the commissioners by the
employees and by the city merchants
But the influence failed to ma
terialize.

WHAT RAILROADS PAY.
Increase in Oficial Salaries-Earn-
ings Keep Pace.

The statistical publications issued by
the interstate commerce commission
and sent - the attorney for the Kan
sas board of railroad commissioners
contain much matter of general pub
lie interest when these figures are
compiled and grouped properly in
shape for comparisons. For instance,
the railroad companies talk a good
deal about persecution by legislative
bodies and how the increased cost of
living has necessitated increase of SAL
aries for employees and cut down
revenues to mere bagatelle. The
facts are that the earnings per mile
for the big systems of the country are
as great now as at any time in the
history of the country and the only
material increase in salaries has been
given to the general officers of the
roads, and not to the workmen who
draw wages rather than salaries.
The figures gathered by the inter
state commerce commission show that
of railroad of all roads in the United
states are $3.50 for 1908, $3,54S for
1906, 1886 for 1907, 1924 for
1908 and 1851 for 1909, demon
strating that the year ending June 80,
1909, corresponds in its net results as
closely to 1906 as 1908 did to 1905,
and if the present upward movement
continues. 1910 will compare with
1907, which latter year now represents
the high-water mark in railway earn
ings.
The latest statistical report of the
commission reveals some interesting
things and one of the most striking
is that in regard to the salaries paid
to the various employees of the diff
ferent railroads of the United States.
According to this compilation. which
H. til 10
the salaries of the general officers of
the railways of America have In
creased on an average of 1898 per
man per day. In 1898 the average
daily compensation paid to the gen.
eral officers of our railway systems
was 1913 and in 1908 this average
was $13.11. or an increase of about
35 per cent. 81
In the same period the pay of the
general Office clerks advanced cents
per man per day,~or from 1928 per
day for 1898 to $2~33 in 1908, or an
increase of nearlyc4 per cent.
The enginemen received an in
crease of 70 cents per day, or 10 per
cent; the firemen SIS cents. or 26 per
cent; the conductors es cents, or %
per cent; the machinists 81 cents, or
20 per cent; section foremen 20
cents, or Is per cent; trackmen 20
cents, or "a per cent; telegraph oper-
ators 38 cents, or 10 per cent.
In what is designated by the COM
mission as Group VIII territory, of
which Kansas is a part, the average
daily increase for the general off,
GERS was 1888, while the general office
clerks compensation increased an
average of 10 cents per day during the
period from 1898 to 1908.
The average daily compensation of
the Kansas state officials was $500
in 1908 and this had increased to
$500 in 1908, or about II per cent
increase. as compared with a 35 per
cent increase for the general officers
of the railroads of the United States
during the same period of time.

er is qualified to receive a forward
pass only when he is at least one yard
back of his own line of scrimmage
or occupies the position on the end of
the line. No man may make a for
ward pass or kick the ball unless he is
five yards back of the line of scrim-
mage.
The territory forward of the line of
scrimmage and consequently in the
enemy's camp is adjudge neutral for
a distance of 20 yards pending the
completion of forward pass or kick.
A forward pass is not legal if the ball
crosses a line twenty yards in advance
of the spot where it was put in play
before touching the ground or
player.
In the case of kick, the players on
the defense within the twenty yard
zone must not interfere with the ends,
or other players, in any way until
their opponents have advanced twenty
yards beyond the line of scrimmage.
Interlocked interference, that is play
ers of the side having the ball taking
hold of each other or using their
hands or arms to grasp their team
mates in any way, is forbidden, and it
is also forbidden for any man on the
side having possession of the ball to
push or pull in any way the man run
ming with the ball.
Another innovation is to be noted in
regard to the substitution of players
during game. A rule has been pass
ed which provides that a player who
had been removed for any cause except
disqualification or suspension may be
returned to the game once at the be-
ginning of any subsequent period.
The longitudinal lines formerly
marking the field are done away with
as the quarterback may now cross the
line of scrimmage at any point.

HANDY WITH A GUN.
Moissant the Subject of Romantic
Stories From Central America.


New York, Aug. 1S.-In Nicaragua
and the various republics of Central
America, where many Americans of
adventurous spirit have staked their
lives and reputation on their quickness
with a gun, John Moissant bears a
Stories of Moissant were told here to-
day by former residents of Central
America.
At the time when Moissant was So
journing in Honduras, it was told by a
Nicaraguan, tramp steamer loaded
with cargo valued at 100000 was
cast ashore in storm and abandoned.
That night in the teeth of the gale
Moissant made his way alone to the
steamer in small dugout and took
possession of the vessel.
In the morning the storm abated
and the ships captain, accompanied
by members of the crew and an agent
of the line. rowed out to the ship,
which had withstood the pounding of
sea and wind but which was held fast
on a sunken reef in the outer harbor.
They were halted by a shot from Mois-
SAINTS revolver. There was some par
leying and the skipper rowed back to
shore to inform the American consul
and the authorities that Moissant
claimed the ship and her cargo as
salvage and had threatened .'to blow
the head OFF the first one who tried to
come aboard"
There was a second expedition to
the ship this time with the consul and
some native so1diery, but Moissant re-
fused to be impressed and to show his
sincerity of purpose, shot hole
through the sombrero of the native
commandant
The expedition to recapture the
stranded steamer returned to shore for
achievements of artillery, but dur
ing the night a storm more severe than
the first. swept the harbor and COM
pleted the wreck of the tramp. When
daylight broke the vessel was seen to
have foundered. Moissant was taken
off later by the American consul, who
found him dashed to the topmost rig
ging of the steamer, which emerged
only a few feet above the water.
Previous to this exploit Moissant
was reported as handling rapid fire
gun for the Nicaraguans in an attack
on Salvador during one of the recent
outbreaks there.
The Moissant brothers, George. AL
fred and John, and two sisters for
many years had interests valued at
several hundred thousand dollars in
Salvador In 1907. George and Alfred
Moissant were arrested and imprison-
ed on charges of aiding and abetting
the revolutionists of Salvador and with
having secreted the revolutionary gen.
eral, Escalon.
The third brother, John, was active
" implicated. in the movement against
lutionists were repulsed by government
troops at Acajutla, John fed to Mica
ragua. His brothers later were re-
leased but their property was attached
by the government as a bond to pre-
vent their escape from the country.
Two years later John Moissant headed
large f1libustering expedition against
Salvador from Nicaragua, but it was
checked by the action of Commander
William S. Benson. u. S. N, command
ing the cruiser Albany. who threatened
to sink the vessel from which the fill
busters proposed to land on Saliva
doran territory.
