VIGILANTS ANSWER.
Ready to Play Engineers Any Time
at Capital City Park.

The following letter is self-explanatory!
Sporting Editor The Washington Herald:
Dear Sir: In answer to the chaIlenge
Of the Engineers team Of the Washing
ton Barracks, I wish to state that we
claim the undisputed championship OF
this section Of the country, and are ready
TO defend this title against all legitimate
claimants on our grounds, at North Cap
itol and L streets northwest, any Sun
day morning or afternoon.
We signed a contract with the Engi-
neers last Tuesday for a game to be
played on December TO- and they were to
post so as a forfeit in your hands for
appearance, as we did not think they
were reliable enough to show up to play.
As yet they have not posted a cent,
which goes TO show that there is some
thing "shaky' in their team.
We even conceded to them the demand
that the winner take the entire gate re-
ceipts, thinking ii was an inducement,
but they have still hid behind some un-
seen obstacle. Now, which seems to be
the team that is afraid? Ask the Engi-
neers through your columns, and If they
mean business you can make any ar.
rangements with them that you want,
and we will abide by your decision.
Thanking you for past favo-s, 1 re-
main, Yours truly,
JOSEPH OLIvERI, Jr,
Business Manager Vigilant Football Team.

GRIFF IN CHICAGO;
RUMORS OF TRADE
Special to The Washington Herald.

Chicago, Nov. 2S.-Clark Grif-
fifth, the man who will have
charge OF the destinies of the
Nationals in the american League
next season. got into Chicago to-
day from his ranch in Montana,
and, after a conference with
James John Callahan, manager of
the White Sox, beat 1t for Wash
ington. Griffith refused to an
nounce any of his plans for the
coming season, but II was ru-
mored here that he was planning
a trade between Washington and
Chicago that would necessitate
the release of one of Comiskey's
pitchers for a National catcher.
Washington fans have always
thought kindly of their towns
man. Doc white. Comiskey would
want an awful price for him.
however, considering the fact
that the dentist twirler has been
exceptionally good the last few
years. 1t is understood Griffith
will shake up his combination
considerably and start with an
entirely different lineup from
last year.

Special TO The Washington Herald
Emmitsburg, Md, Nov. 2S.-Mount st.

game with Catholic University in Wash
Ington Thursday. The team ran through
some hard work in the rain to-day. and
although it was impossible to get up
any speed, nevertheless the boys got the
plays off in fine shape.
The locals are hoping for a clear day
and a good field, as the Catholic Uni
versity team is reported as much heavier
than the mountain boys, and heavy field
would prove a decided advantage to the
Washington aggregation.
With good weather, the locals are in
hopes of showing the possibilities of the
open style of play, and as this is the
last game, the boys are all anxious to
give a good account of themselves. This
is the first time in some years Mount St
Mary's has visited the Capital City, and
as there arc a large number OF alumni
in the city who will be present. the team
as a whole will endeavOr to give the hest
that is in Them.
In the lineup for this game the locals
will have two Washingtonians on the
list. Engel, at full back, who is consid-
cred the best kicker among the Mary
land colleges, and Haltigan, who has
been playing a pretty steady game at left
end.
The boys will be run through light sig
nal drill tomorrow, after which all the
squad, with the exception Of the men
that are to make the trip, will say good
by to their football togs. The season has
not been so bad when It is taken into
consideration that the schedule was
rather inconsistent.
The games played were all hard, but
were too far apart to get the desired
results. However, Coach Thompson
seems to he pleased with his first season,
and says that by next year the supporters
OF the local institution can look Cor sCme

EARLY RUM0RS PROVE

Volcano of COIima Continues in
Eruption, Making Spectac-

MEXICO CITY, June 9.-Because of
the lack of telegraphic facilities and
the slowness with which the officials
of the villages in outlying districts
make reports to the government, 1t is
not improbable that months may pass

The list Of known dead totals a few
more than 100, and it is quite possible
this number may be augmented, but
neither government officials nor local
newspapers believe it will pass the $50
mark, notwithstanding the fact that
early rumors placed the number at
more than 1000.
