WILSON'S EAR TO
WIRE ALL NIGHT

SEA GRIT. June Ex-Governor Will
son gave up practise ON the golf links
yesterday afternoon. ten minutes
after the battling on the South Da-
kota contests began in Baltimore.
The Governor came off the links de-
claring hal things were getting SO
interesting he couldn't keep away
from the telegraph wire.
His direct wire to the convention
hall brought him constant informa-
ton throughout the afternoon. At 6
o'clock the Governor was smiling
more broadly than he had smiled
throughout the day.
THE indications are" he said, that
the progressives are in control and
that is gratifying"
do you consider" a visitor asked,
that the balloting is demonstrating
that your personal chances are i'm
proving" The Governor indicated
with a quick wav of his hand that
the question was distasteful to him.
THAT is not the way / care to think
of it," he said. Il am confident that
the nominee will be a progressive, and
that the platform will be progress
sive."
The Governor plainly was elated at
the action Of the convention in abro-
eating tho unit rule.
II have always maintained" he
said, that where delegates are in
structed by districts in a primary
election, they should vote according
ly, and not be bound by the unit rule.
For instance, here in New Jersey we
have twenty-four of the majority
yet he have never dreamed of en-
forcing the unit rule"
A question was asked about the
South Dakota contest. Governor Will
son said he did not know the details
of the situation there enough to be
able to estimate the exact meaning
of the vote In the convention.
~ regard 1t as very Fortunate" he
said, that tho fight WIS started al
tho outset Of the convention to make
a straight lineup DIS between progress
sives and non-progressives. When
the first victory for Judge Parker
was ANNOUNCED the people at home
had a chance to let their delegates
hear from them and the result Seems

FOR PURER
CITY WATER

To wipe out the source of contain
nation of the reservoir at Cedar
Grove the Board of Works has made
an offer to the Fresh Air and Conva-
descent Home Association to purchase
the home near the water supply. If
the offer is not accepted within ten
days condemnation proceedings will
be brought on the grounds that the
place is a menace to health.
DR.. Morgan Wilcox Ayers, treasurer
of the association, said today that IN
offer had been received from the city
and that the official board would meet
Saturday night to consider 1t.
Following the death of one child
and the illness of several others in
the hill section an examination of
the water was made and II was found
that the Cedar Grove reservoir was
polluted. The supply from that source
was then cut off from the city mains
and the water in the entire basin is
being drawn off.

their laurels this morning-nor, in
deed, sleeping at ell. While Senator
Bankheed had retired to his room for
-est a large working force was busy
among the delegations from the va
rious States intent on securing votes
for Underwood as second choice.
The leaders are making no claims,
however, as to gains from particular
quarters. They are relying on a pro-
longation of the struggle. The longer
is lasts, they say, the more unin-
structed votes they will get along
with others now tied up by obliga-
tions from which they can be relieved
later.
DIR. owen, secretary of the Under
wood committee, said that the 1171R
votes received by their candidate ex-
ceeded by six and one-half the num-
Der they had expected. Their gains
came from the two in Maine, two in
New Jersey, one in Hawaii, one In
Porto Rico and one-half a vote from
Virginia. They expect to receive sub
stantial gains on the second and third
ballots today, but are not looking for
much change on the first ballot be-
cause Of the high feeling that prevails
for the present leaders in the race.

WANTS FEICK ESTATE
DECLARED INS0LVENT

Application was made in the Or
phans' Court today to declare in
solvent the estate of Charles A.
Feick, who met his death in al auto
mobile accident last September. 1t is
significant that only W weeks re-
main of the ninth months statutory
period for filing of claims against the
estate.
The application was made by Mrs.
Bertha e. Feick. as executrix of her
husbands last will. Judge Martin an
nounced that he would sign the order

Senator Kern is being groomed as a
dark horse in the race, and when
told today of a report that he and
Mayor Gaynor, of New York, were to
be put forward If 1t raj ascertained
that a deadlock would continue with
the presidential candidates In the
field he replied: Going to bring two
fresh horses in the field, are they?
Well, all that / can say is that the
microbe has not entered me, and /
am not troubling myself about It,"
Leader opposing Mr.. Bryan In the
convention openly assert that he made
a great mistake In Offering his last
night resolution, and declare that II
means the breaking of the back OF
Governor Wilson'S candidacy. After
one or two more ballots, IL was
learned today that an fort will he
made 10 break up the block Of II
votes east by Pennsylvania delegates
for Governor Wilson.
There was a general report today
that some time before the convention
went into session the Underwood lead
ers would try to have the Harmon
forces join them to bring about the
naming of the floor leader of the
House for the head of the Democra-
tic ticket.
That the second ballot, which is TO
come just after the convention meets
this afternoon, will show many
switches Of votes Is confidently as
serted by the leaders as the under
play of politics developed during the
day.
National Committeeman Roger Sui
Ivan, of Illinois, has heretofore In
| dicated to his friends that he was un-
able to say what the Illinois dele
CATION would do with their hfty-eight
votes after the first ballot. The H.
linols delegation voted solidly for

suits of the first ballot, the Under

familiar to f%requenters Of the COM
mittee's precincts.
Giving npecial prominenle to the
tariff an Effort will be made to DEM
onstrate that the Republican policy
of protection has been responsible In
large degree for the present high cost
of living and for the development of
trusts and monopolies. There will
be a positive declaration for revision
downward to the basis of a tariff for
revenue only, with especial stress
upon the word only" but to meet
the demands largely of Senator New
lands, and at the same time indorse
the piecemeal revision of the House
of Representatives, the opinion will
be expressed that the reductions
should be made gradually, and after
the most careful deliberation, with
a view of disturbing business to as
slight an extent as possible.
Money Plank TG-.s Serious.
1t is hoped so to shape the financial
plank as to convince the bankers
of the country that there ia a pos
sibilitX of revising the finances with
out resorting to the central reserve
plan suggested by Senator Aldrioh,
and the monetary commission, of
which, until recently, he was the
head. The Aldrich plan is denounced
on the theory that 1t would place
the issuance of the currency and its
continued control when issued In the
hands of practically one business cor
poration, which, 1t is contended,
would be the result of the adoption
of the Aldrlch ideas.
At the same time the committee
would recognize the necessity of pro-
tecting the banks and their custom
ers against the condition which
arose in 1907, and it is believed this
can be done by the distribution of the
~government funds throughout the
country in a way to make them
available In case of monetary dis
turbance.
Both the subcommittee and the
full committee are agreed upon the
desirability of criminal prosecutions
against the men back of the trusts.
There has been some contention, es-
pecially by Senator O'Gorman, that
If the criminal provisions Of the law
as 1t now stands should be enforced
the ends of justice would be sub
served. While agreeing with him a
majority of the members take the
position that the fact that these pro-
visions have not been enforced is good
evidence hat they will not be SO
long as they are left in the least
fore is to declare for amendments
which will render the law so I'M
equivocaI as to leave no excuse for
failure of enforcement in this re-
spect.
The planks on Mississippi river
improvement and conservation are
regarded as direct advances. There
Is an implied declaration in the Mis-
sissippi river plank against State
control and in favor of turning over
the whole question of the regulation
of the great waterway to the Federal
government.
In the matter of the preservation
of the natural the commit
tee would not take a backward step,
but it is emphatic in the advance
ment Of the theory that a policy
which would drive our homeseekers
to other countries should not prevail.
There, therefore. will be a declaration
for the administration of the land
laws so as to ensourage settlement
and home building.

Mike Thompson will bring an outfit
from Mt st. Mary's that may prove
quite troublesome.
But, on the whole. the Georgetown
team played in a manner that should
hold out considerable promise. Jack
Hegarty showed that he is a captain
Of the most aggressive sort. and al
though he was playing'in a new po-
sition, he kept the whole eleven fired
up from the first kickoff to the final
whistle.
Last fall Hegarty won the distinction
OF being the best end in this section OF
the country, and there Is possibility
that shifting him to tackle may AFFECT
his individual play. but on Saturday he
showed his ability as a leader in such
impressive form as to Justify the opin-
ion that he should make one Of the
best field captains that ever led a
Georgetown team In a contest.
1t was Hegartv who tried to eliminate
the constant calling for a repitition of
signals, and had he had his way the
Blue and Gray would have had no diff
ficulty In. crossing the goal lines FOR
scores every few minutes.
The whole Georgetown team Is in for
driving week OF work between now and

proved proposition over the team that

GEORGETOWN Will

DURING THIS YEAR
New Management Formu-
lates Plans and Expects
Success.

The basketball outlook at Georgetown
University for the coming season has
frightened considerably since the new
management formulated its plans. and
prospects OF a successful campaign are
encouraging.
Manager MadiGan. who was selected
to manage the Hilltop auint. after the
executive board of the West End school
had decided to foster the great indoor
game. has been hard at work. The
steps which he proposes to take promise
to boost the sport into Arm position

one OF the most radical steps he
figures on Ii the sale of season tickets,
thus directly approaching the student
body and loyal followers OF the Blue
and Gray In all branches of sport, a
thing which hitherto has been absolute
ly neglected by managers OF the basket
ball teams.
This season the games will be seen
and supported by the students instead
OF by chance pleasure seekers as has
heretofore been the case.
Other plans are under way which Will

Georgetown has reason for neither
congratulations nor disappointment over
Its showing In the opening game Of the
football season here. a..
To the undergraduates the large score
made against Randolph Macon may
sound mighty good. but to the coaches
the game did not give the same salts
faction. Georgetown defeated a we'll
drilled prep school team and that was
all. The score might, and should have
been, larger. bu: there were certain
weaknesses that were noticeable that
must be eliminated within the next few
weeks. II that much-hoped-for victory
Is to be scored over the Indians.
Before the game Saturday Il was gen.
orally felt that Georgetown had a re-
markable crop of backheld material
with scarcity OF good linemen. The
fact that the team started the year
with last seasons backfield practically
intact led many to believe that he prop
osition OF developing forwards would be
the biggest factors the coaches would
have to confront. but II Saturdays
game is to be taken as a criterion the
general opinion must be changed for
II was the line and not the backs that
made possible the high score against
the Virginians.
II was thought that n the line could
give such men as Costello, Fury, and
others a chance to get under way they
would sweep any team in the country,
but on Saturday the linesmen time after
time afforded all the assistance that
could be expected, ana II was In the
backfield that the teamwork was lack
Ing. During the whole course OF the
game II Is doubtful II any man in the
backfield ever took his man and put
him completely out or the play. and II
was this absolute lack OF cooperation
that kept Georgetown from at least
doubling what may seem to be a rather
large score.
Georgetown will never gain ground
by such "side-swiping' as the backs die
on Saturday. when they were supposed
to take the man and put him out of the
road for the man carrying the ball. II
may do against Randolph-Macou, but
AGAINST the Indians. Virginia, v. p. l.
and other strong teams It will avail
naught.
In fairness to all concerned. It must
be said that the idea Of a surfeit Of
backs and poor lnemen was SO mis-.
leading that all attention was centered
on the forwards from the day the squad
reported. Now that the line mas shown
that the balance Is in it's favor, those
who were behind the iinemen on Sat.
urday may expect their grueling be.

0eofsetown coaches are far from

the season. and hard work In first

While Randolph Macon showed a
stronger team than was expected.
Georgetown's work failed signally to
impress the coaches, who took notes and
made their comparisons on the side
lines. Ragged work in the backfield
marked the play, and this with better
conditioning Of players which Is to be

order.
The large score Is not indicative OF
the strength of the team. Georgetown
undoubtedly possesses more latent

CARLISLE INDIAN
BEST ATTRACTION
OF 1912 FOOTBALL
Olympic Hero Is Now Most
Popular of All
Athletes.

Glenn Warner. coach OF the Carlisle
Indian eleven, skilled above any OF his
rivals In the ability 10 pack stadiums
where his elevens appear. will have this
year in the presence OF Jim Thorpe the
greatest drawing card on the football
field.
Thorpe, fresh from his triumphs in
the Olympic games at Stockholm, Is now
the best-known athlete In the world.
He would be famous were he a white
man. but to be the most notable of all
around performers. and also an Indian,
thus carrying all the romance that goes
with aboriginal extraction, In going to
mean a rush to see Thorpe perform on
the gridiron.
This is a big consideration at Carlisle.
where there Is no athletic association to
furnish funds to support the team, no
rich graduates to come to the rescue.
The Government does not make any
allowance for the training of the squad
nor the support OF football.
This puts the proposition sharply I'D
to Warner. ana he has shown his abilI-
ty to make good. His fast-hying fight-
ing Indian teams have for the past de-
cade proved the best drawing cards OF
all football elevens.
Outside of the turnout for special
games Nike Yale-Harvard, Yale Prince
ton. Harvard-Princeton. Army Navy,
Pennsylvania Princeton, etc. no eleven
attracts the multitudes who go to see
the Indians, and this year with Thorpe
as a member the interest VIII be still
greater.
Thorpe is captain of the team, and is
rated among the greatest players the
institution ever produced. He Ia a
fighting tactician. cool, but furious. He
can do everything. He Is vicious
tackler. great line bucker. wonderful
runner with the ball In an open field
and q master drop kicker.
The triumphs of the taciturn redslSiu
at Stockholm are going to yield rich
harvest Of dividends to Carlisle.
