HARVARD ELEVEN
 DESERVES ALL CREDIT
Walter Camp Says Yale Has No Ex- cuses to Offer for Saturdays Defeat.

Walter Camp, Yale's advisory coach,
 has the following to say on the Yale defeat Saturday:
 It was an overwhelming defeat, and i there are no excuses. The Harvard team deserves every credit. Yale's sturdy defense stod out as a redeem ing feature. and the individual pluck of the Blue team was exhibited by
 their comeback in the fourth period, when, more than hopelessly behind, they fought their way sturdily up that field with a persistency that deserved better fate. The Harvard team is to be congratulated on it's splendid seasons work, and Haughton on
 crowning his labors for the last few years with the production of a mag
 nificently roundabout aggregation. Harvard brought down a splendidly finished team, good in all around play,
 with consistent kicking game worked to it's limit against a team unable to handle the punts. Their quarterback, Gardner, finding his line plays. even his formerly successful split plays with Wendell carrying the ball unsuccess- fully. worked couple of fakes with
 wide end runs for clever gains. Find ing himself unable to get over the line
 he succeeded with a drop kick by
 Brickley. Then later, once more
 pounding the line ineffectively, having
 drawn the Yale end in. he sent a. pret-
 ty end run in the third period after a
 huff by Flynn. which gave Harvard the ball on Yale's 20 yard line for a touchdown clean outside of Yale's left
 end. That showed the polish of liar wards consistent play. When stopped from tackle to tackle they used just the right kind of deception, and always had as a background the kicking of Felton with a more than even chance that the ball might be muffed."

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
AN ERRATic MARKET.
Quotations Fall Of on Advance in
 Money Rate.

New York, Nov. 26.-The cratic course of the money market today was reflected in operations in stocks, though quotations were appreciably steaoler than was the case yesterday. Cal money. opening at g per cent, quickly advanced to 12 per cent., and renewals were made at II per cent, as compar- ed with per cent. yesterday. After touching the high point the rate oe- clined steadily until before the close money was offered at per cent There was some further calling ln or loans' owing to the demands of interior banks and it was suggested also that window dressing for the expected call from the comptroller for statement of the condition of national banks played a part in the action of the money mar ket. Thes more urgent demands TOT funds were quickly satisfied, however, and during the last part of the day call loans were in small request Time rates hardened in sympathy with the movement of call money.
 The stock market was relieved to- day of pressure from abroad. On more reassuring news of the European po- litical situation the foreign markets improved, and there was sympathetic advance on the home exchange at the opening. interest was CcuIcI0u ldA SO- ly on the money market, and when call loans rose to 12 per cent. quotations fell off sharply for a time With the easing of money, however, the mar ket steadied and toward the close prices rose to the highest point of the day. A number of the standard issues made net gains of a point or more.
 The influence of high rates for mon- ey was reflected in the foreign ex- change market and exchange rates dropped below the recent low figures to the bottom quotations for about two years. A further engagement of S500,- 900 gold for import from London was announced.
 Atchison's October statement con- trfibuted another to the list of favor able railroad returns. Gross earnings increased $1,417,O 900 and the net $SS7,- 000

CHAMPION YEARLING. SOLD.
J. Howard Ford Pays $12,5oo for Trot.
 ter AirdaIe, 2151-4,

Airdale, 2.15 IA, the worlds cham pion trotter and one of the sensations of the past light harness season. is now the property of J. Howard Ford of New York, owner of the trotting stall lion Billy Burke. 2.03 3-4. According to reports from Lexington the noted youngster cost Fred S12,500, the pur- chase price being made from Jarrel Tarlton, proprietor of Allendale stock farm, near Lexington, Ky. It was from the same breeder last year that Ford bought the yearling trotter, Lord Allen, with which he won a number of the year old divisions of the big futuri- ty, paying for him S61 ,00. Airdale will surely join the training stable of Lon Mcdonald, who has trained and driven for Ford Billy Burke and Lord Allen with great success. and to the full sat. isfaction of their owner. Airdale is heavily staked in all leading futurities, and will be raced in the juvenile di- visions next year same as Lord Allen this year. The purchase of this sen- sational youngster by Ford will nat urally cause some surprise in horse circles for the reason that Airdale is an own brother to Lord Allen, both being by Tregantle out of Miss Fannie Summers, 2.16 1-4, by Bow Bells, sec ond dam Florence D., 2.29 1-2, by Jay Gould. Airdale's present record is fast CT by four seconds than the former championship mark of the age. the holder being Miss tokes, in 2.19 IA. Lord Aliens yearling mark was 226 1-4.

SEVEN CHARGES AGAINST FOCEL
Philadelphia Magnae Makes General Denial Before National League Directors-Resigned From Club Presidency Does Not Believe Remnant Race Crooked

New York, Nov. -Notwithstand- ing the sudden death of John T. Brush, president of the New York Na- tional league baseball club. magnates of the National league assembled here to- consider the charges against Presi- dent Fogel of the Philadelphia club. went into session at o'clock this aft ernoon as scheduled. The resolutions framed by the league directors on President Brush's death were given out when recess for an hour was taken this evening until S.30 o'clock.
 Julius Fleishmann of Cincinnati pre- sided over the meeting at the request of President Lynch. All the clubs were represented. MT. Fogel was rep resented by A. s. L. Shields of Phil adelphia.
 At the outset the Philadelphia club presented documents showing that MT. Fogel had resigned as president Mo- vember 22 and that A. B. Wiler had been elected his successor.
 Seven distinct charges were made against MT. Fogel, alleging that he had issued false and slanderous state ments which would make for public distrust of the National league-that the St. Louis team had placed weak teams in the field against New York, that the National league pennant race of 1912 was not properly conducted, that the race in question had been fixed for New York to win," that the umpired had been "fxed' for the same end, that Philadelphia did not receive fair deal, and that MT. Fogel caused
Norwich bulletin., 1912-11-27

the statements in question to appear Tn Chicago newspaper on September 28.
 FogePs reply was a general denial of the charges. In the first place, he questioned the jurisdiction of the Ma t1onal league in calling him to account in the manner it had. done As to the alleged remarks themselves he de- clared that another Philadelphia pro- fessional man had made the state ments attributed to him. That man dld not wish his name to be known, Fogel said. He also declared that at the time the statements were made, he himself had remarked that there were too many safeguards thrown around professional baseball for such a thing to occur.
 In reply to questions today as to whether he believed the pennant race, league officials or President Lynch were crooked" Fogel replied in each case, "No."
 At the same time 1t was given out, that Fogel declared the Philadelphia team had got rotten deal, any how" and had received it consistently for the past three years.
 Several New York newspaper men testified that they heard Fogel make the statements attributed to him. Sev- eral Philadelphia newspaper men tes- tlhed to the contrary, attributing the statements to Philadelphia profess s1onal man. as Fogel had asserted in his reply to the charges.
 The case was still in progress at midnight with little prospect of an early conclusion.

Cornell at Atlantic City.

Atlantic City. N. J., Nov. 26-The Cornell football team. which arrived here today to finish it's preparations for the Thanksgiving day game with the University of Pennsylvania, was given a lively signal drill this after noon by Coach Sharpe, long forward passes, criss- s-crosses and end runs were the principal plays called for and were run through in a manner which would indicate a fast open game on Thursday at Philadelphia. The same team as faced Michigan probably will line up at the opening of the game except that Fritz. who has completely recovered from his injuries, will sup plant Bennett at right halfback.

DO|NCS IN THE AUTO WORLD
Connecticut Automobile Association Opposed Federal Aid For Highways Pilot Car Enthusiastically Received The Motorcar a Money-Saver in Municipal Service Much American Capital in Auto Industry.

The proqress of the Connecticut
 Good Roads association pilot car in it's tour of the 400 miles of road which it is proposed to cover with a perma- nent pavement, was accompanied by cordial receptions and enthusiastic
 support of this new departure in road construction in this state. It has been the means of bringing into the asso- citation a number of the business mems associations and automobile clubs that were not in at the initiation of the movement so that now almost all of the chambers of commerce, bus mess mems associations and automo- bile clubs are enlisted in behalf of the
 work. In addition many individuaA members have voluntarily requested
 enrolment and paid their admission fee. It may be safely stated that no
 movement of any character has been started in this state in long series Of years that has gained such momentum or promised such lasting benefits and economic advantage to the common wealth.
 When the public meetings in the
 several cities and towns that have
 been arranged for are held. the work yet to be done will be more carefully outlined and full preparation made to carry 1t forward with zeal and energy. A bill will be drafted for submission to the incoming general assembly pro- viding for the establishment of the four hundred miles of pavement the line of which is now pretty generally known throughout the state. and for means with which to prosecute the work when once the route is estab- lished. It is not proposed, of course, to attempt to tear up the trunk lines throughout the state in an effort to immediately build the whole line pro- jected. Instead. the work will be car ried on in sections where most needed and there sections will be heightened
 as necessity requires until the whole line is built. Where the macadam now down can be kept in good condi- tion at reasonable expense, it is not
 proposed to disturb it at the present time, but as rapidly as it wears out to
 replace it with the new pavement.
 This, it will be observed. is practical and conservative way to bring more
