Jury Decides MunI1's Death in Football
Game Not Murder.

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. 15.-The
coroner's jury last night returned a
verdict of accidental death in the case
of Rudolph Munk, the West Virginia
university player who died of injuries
received in a football game Saturday.

player, charged with causing the m

''That means accidental DEATH" said
Coroner Rogers, "and ends any prose-

The most important testimony came
before the jury in the shape of a spe-
cial delivery letter to the coroner
from Homer Young. the former Michi-
gan player, who Officiated as umpire.
On Sunday he had given testimony
tending to show Mccoy had intention

strength of his version of the affair
that the warrant for murder followed.
In his letter placed before the coro-
ner's jury last night, Young says:
Il can not state with absolute posi-
tiveness that Mccoy struck Munk al
though it appeared to me that he
struck at him about the head. 1 can
not state with absolute positiveness

stances from which it may be inferred
there was intention and deliberation

Yale Planning to Build Stadium
at New Haven.

New Haven, Conn. Nov. 15.-Tickets
to the Yale-Harvard football game here
next Saturday are worth nearly their
weight in radium. The demand is
twice as great as in any previous year,
according to the mana cement ana
nearly 10000 alumni and undergradu-
ate applications have already been
thrown out because of inability to fill
the orders. Offers of from $50 to 500
apiece are made for the pasteboards by
spectators. Two tickets is the most
allotted to any Yale or Harvard man
and a large proportion of the seekers
have been cut off with a single admis-
sion Not a single outsider has secur-
ed tickets.
This unprecedented demand has re-
pewed the demand here for the building
of a Yale stadium. The present stands
seat only 5000 and the clamor for tick
cts to the game of next Saturday would
exhaust a seating capacity OF 25O,OOO.
Yale has no idea of erecting a stadium
that will meet such general demand
as that, but estimates that a structure
for 10000 persons will accommodate the
students, alumni. and a few guests.
The Yale athletic committee has
charge of the building plans for the
proposed stadium. They sent Everard
Thompson. the graduate manager, to
| Europe some time ago to look over the
stadium which was recently built in
| Chester, England.
The committee has an option on a
site adjoining the present Yale field.
The structure will cost about $500, 900.

but total eclipses of the sun are rare.
There will be a shortage of both next

usual. Generally, there are three or
four and one or two partial eclipses of

was an injury at the back of the head
where blood clot had formed; also
there were evidences of a former blood
clot from an old injury. Death was
due to the injury received in last Sat
urday's game, they said.
P. H. Rudy of Millersburg, Ohio,
left halfback of the Bethany eleven,
said Mccoy struck Munk with his fore
arms crossed and not with his clench-
ed fist. as had been alleged. He was
struck in the breast, not in the back,
and the wound in the back of the head
must have been inflicted when Munk
fell. Mccoy staggered and fell across
the West Virginia player.

to hearing Mccoy say, 'They have
