The Kansas Aggies are not playing
Tarkio today according to their first
schedule but have a more formidable
antagonist in the RolIa school of mines
team from Rolla, Mo. The Rolla team
held Missouri to a 0 to 0 score two
weeks ago and last Saturday were beat
en- by st. Louis university only to 0.
After so good a, showing they ought to
give the Aggies a good game. The farm
ers probably have the better of the
weight but more of the loose play ex-
pected from the Missouri eleven.

The Washburn team is showing a
great deal more ginger than ever before
this season and the changes Of Coach
DR.. Stewart seem to have been wisely
made. While little is known of the
style Of play which will be used in the
contest by the Blue on account of the
closed gates all week the lineup has
been given out at different times but
the team which started today was diff
ferent from that given last night in
several places.
Captain McCarroH is playing at right
half instead of end where he was shift
ed from quarter. Crunbine is at quar-
ter and Harrington at right end. Whit
comb is at full and Lee on his end.
Burkhart is at left half, Tomlinson be-
ing unable to play on account of a
bone fracture in the thigh. Hardy, who
has been seen hmping around may be
able to play a few minutes but not like
ly to. tombstone is at center and if
DeF'rantz gets into the game it will be
at tackle. The other line men are in
their old positions.

The Kansas State Normal team from
Emporia is the enemy attacking the
Washburn camp today. There is sort
of premonition of evil among the Blue
supporters that the Normal will get the
honors. The Normals think so as
many of the teachers here in conven-
ton were heard to predict a victory.
Normal based their hope of victory on
their defeat of Paramount and Wash
burns defeat by Ottawa week ago.
But Washburn played away below
their rating last Saturday and week
of secret practice and hard drill may
make a wonderful change. 1t will
be a fierce battle from kickoff to
whistle, that's a certainty.
Moreover it is the last chance for
the Topeka boosters to see a real foot
ball game this season on the local
gridirOn. The remaining game on the
home schedule is Missouri Wesleyan
who comes November 5. The Tarkio
game which was to be played here has
been transferred to Kansas City. No
vember IL for financial reasons among
others. The two great games with X.
U. and the Aggies are both to be
played away from home and today
is the last big contest here.
The kickoff was made at O'Clock
in order that hundreds of teachers
might be able to remain over to see
their team in action and still be able
to catch outgoing trains in good time.
Quarters of Is minutes are selected.

was willing to waive the question of

proved to be a stormy affair. Mayor
Marshall has been criticised severely by
many speakers. He offers to resign IL

CAPTAIN MOON OF
HORNET ARRESTED

New Orleans, August Capt w. O,
Moon, master of the converted yacht
Hornet, was arrested this afternoon on
a federal warrant sworn out by the local
representatives of the Madriz govern
ment of Nicaragua, charging him with
violating the United States neutrality
laws in attempting to aid In hostilities
against a country with which the United
States Is at peace. Similar charges
against the master of the Madriz steam
er Venus were dismissed when the Venus
cleared for Nicaragua several months
ago.
Capt Moon was released on a 5000
bond He will be tried by the United
States commissioner tomorrow morning.
1t was at first believed that the Madriz
representatives would proceed against
the Hornet in the United States circuit
court, and when no petition had been
filed up to a late hour this afternoon
preparations were made to clear the
Hornet for Bluefelds. Then came the
unexpected warrant sworn out before
the United States commissioner, and
when application was made for clear
ance papers they were refused, pending
the disposition of the case in the court
of the commissioner In the papers
which the ship owners filed, they stated
that the Hornet had aboard nine cases
of shotguns, four cases of machine gun
ammunition, one hundred and forty
seven cases of cartridges, forty-one
drums of gasoline, and a lot of -four,
rice, lard and sugar

filed within five days after vessel

TAFT WILL NOT BE

Des Moines, Iowa. August 1.-President
Taft will not be ignored in the platform
of the republican state convention which
will be held here next Wednesday. His
administration will be indorsed, to quote
roughly, In SO far as 1t has carried out

tie meeting Of leaders tonight.
George C. Curtiss of Clinton will repre-
sent the second district ON the platform
committee. This is said to mean that the
majority report of the resolutions commit
tee will fully represent the views of Sem
ators Cummins and Dolliver. The conven-
tion In which the progressive majority is
placed at 250 votes will be spared the
trouble of substituting minority report
for the adverse majority.

stated that every act Of the insurgent
delegation would be. indorsed and that ef-
forts of making for harmony would not
go to the length of indorsing President
4aft on matters where he and the Iowa
progressives have been at variance.

PROTEST OF HAMILTON
ALLOWED BY AERO CLUB

New York, August 1.-The national
council of the Aero club of America,
which met today to consider the pro-
test of Charles X. Hamilton against
Glenn H. Curtiss, announced tonight
that a resolution had been passed de-
nying the sanction of the club to any
aviation meet not open to all quail
fed and licensed aviators.
Although no mention is made of
either Curtiss or Hamilton, the resolu-
tion is generally interpreted as di-
rect slap at Curtiss. In his protest
Hamilton charged that representations
made by Cui~iss to the managemnt of
the coming Harvard aviation meet had
caused the management to refuse his
entry. This conduct he denounced as
unsportsmanlike and American. In
effect the national council now rules
that unless Hamilton's entry is ac-
cepted the Harvard aviation meet Will
not be sanctioned and the records made
there will not be considered official.

Diplomatic Relations Are Not
Yet Entirely Broken
By DisputaDts
VATICAN OFFICIALS Do
NOT ACCEPT THE BLAME
1t Is Declared Tint Premier Cannleja
Wants Greater Religious Conces-
sions Than Those That Were
Agreed To in 1904

Rome, August AFTER presenting the
note of Premier Canalcjas to the vatican
officially announcing that Marquis de
Ojeda had been "called to Madrid for
communication with the government" the
Spanish ambassador to the vatican left
Rome This was early this morning, and
as. yet no retaliatory measures have been
taken by the church, and Monsignor yico
still remains in Madrid as papal nuncio.
The statement issued by Premier Cana
lejas yesterday bearing on the controversy
between the church and state has been
carefully perused by the vatican officials,
who wish 1t to be clearly understood that
that part of the statement in which it is
declared that the Holy See intended TO
concede to the Spanish government less
than what was agreed to in 1904 is with
out foundation in fact.
1t is Canalejas, they declare, who now
wants greater concessions than those of
1904 on the plea that they were granted TO
the then premier Maura, and that Cana
lejas believed them to be at that time in
sufficient.
In answer to this the Holy See retorts
that 1t deals with the Spanish govern
.ment, not with parties in the cortes. The
convention between the Holy See and the
Spanish government agreed to in 1904. it
is pointed out, had already been approved
by the senate and was about to pass the
champer of deputies when the Maura cab
met fell
This, however, was due to matters hav-
ing no relation to the convention or the
religious question. Why, then, the vati-
can asks. should greater concessions be
granted to Premier Canalejas now.

tary of state has prepared all the docu-
ments In the controversy for publication
