CONCERN OVER MONEY TRUST.
Efforts Arc Being Made to Effect n
Party Alliance

The proposed money trust inquiry is
still matter OF deep concern to the
conservative Democratic leaders of the
House. Efforts are now making to effect
a coalition of Democrats and Republicans
whereby a more sweeping inquiry into the
affairs Of the money trust may be au-
thorized than is proposed in the pending
Pujo resolution, The Pujo resolution pro-
vides for an inquiry into "the financial
conditions Of the country" with a view
TO remedial legislation.
The radicals insist that a more specific
measure should be passed. They declare
that IL the Democratic House contents
itself with the adoption of the Pujo reso-
luton the party will be called to account
for its alleged dereliction Of duty in the
coming campaign.

MCLEAN EXPLAINS HIS VOTE.
Opposed Herrick's Nomination Be-
cause of La Toilette CrItIcIsm.

Senator George p. Mclean, of Connec-
ticut in the following statement explains
his opposition TO the appointment OF
AIyron Herrick as Ambassador to France:
Il voted against Mfr. Herrick as pro-
test against his sharp criticism Of Sena-
tor La Toilette and his followers. Mr.
Herrlck was at the time as good as ap-
pointed American Ambassador to France,
and IL seemed to me that his conversa-
tions and public utterances should COM
port with the high dignity Of the great
Office and honor his country, was about
to confer upon him. Moreover, while 1
do not always agree with Senator la
Toilette. he counts among his friends
some of the brainiest men in the country
to-day. and he represented a force in
politics which cannot be destroyed with
the bludgeon of abuse.
Personally I should like TO see fac
tiOnal differences in the party surrender
to the present crying need OF the country
for sane and sober speech and action"

OSPINA INCIDENT CLOSED.
Department Says So, but Congress
May Investigate.

The United States-COlombia incident,
Or more properly, perhaps, the Wilson
Ospina incident is now closed. It was
stated at the State Department yester-
day that there really had been no in
cident-that Mr.. Ospina, the Colombian
Minister, had written a personal letter
to Mr.. Wilson, as Acting Secretary Of
State, in which the personal opinion was
expressed that the time might not be
oppOrtUne for a visit to Colombia by
Secretary Knox. that the letter required
no answer, and accordingly had been
placed on the Departments files.
\ resolution which may result in an
investigation of the Panama revolution,
and which, 1t is intimated, may involve
former President Roosevelt, was yester-
day introduced in the Senate by Senator
Hitchcock, of Nebraska. The introduc-
ton of the resolution at this time, Mr.
Hitchcock explains, is due in large part
to the recent note of the Colombian Min
lister to the State Department relative to
Secretary Of State Hnox's proposed visit
10 the United States of Colombia.

MAY GET TWO MORE SHIPS
Representative FOsH Introduces Bill
for Additional DreadnOuEhts.

The fight to incorporate a provision in
the naval appropriation bin providing
two battle ships OF the first class was
begun in the House yesterday. Repre-
sentative Foss, OF Illinois, Republican.
former chairman Of the Committee on
Naval Affairs, presented a bill directing
the President to enter into contracts for
the construction of two battle ships OF
the first class. The bin provides that
SO 1000 shall be appropriated TO begin
work on the Dreadnoughts.
Although the Democratic caucus some
weeks ago passed a resolution expressing
II TO be the sense of the majority that
no additional battle ships should be
authorized at this session, it is known
that the Democrats are split on the
question. Many of them want one
battle ship, and there are a number who
demand two naval vessels of the hrst
class.

Cornell Eleven
Gives Quakers a
Fight for Game

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 2s.-In
spite Of a game fght Cornell lost to
the University OF Pennsylvania this
afternoon by the score of to 2. A
gridiron wet by melting snow which
fell all morning was responsible for
a great deal of fumbling and prob
ably for the fact that all OF the points
scored were due to mistakes on both
sides. Cornell was the first TO score,
getting two points on safety by
Minds. This was in the first period
when Nash blocked Minds punt and
then forced the Pennsylvania man
over the line for the safety.
Pennsylvania secured the touch
down which won the game towards
the close of the second period. An
unlucky tumble by Bennett, who had
taken Fritz's place. was responsible
for the score. Mercer. the fleet
footed Quaker captain. secured the
ball on his own forty five-yard line
and was off like a fash for the Cor
nell goal. Jourdett and Harrington
put the opposing backs out of the
play and the touchdown was then an
easy matter. Cornell had quite as
good an offense as Pennsy tranii. and
was just as strong on the defense,

measure. Her play. The Real Thing"
has been seen here before, but 1t
seemed absolutely new to those who
attended the performances yesterday
judging from the spontaneous laughs
and hearty applause in which the
lines and situations OF the comedy
were received.
The Real Thing Is a clean, bright
comedy. and 1t Is only right that the
name Of the author, Catherine CHS
holm Gushing. should be set forth. To
be sure, Catherine Chisholm Cushing
appears to be as fond of her initial
letter as Mr.. Churchill OF CaFrel, Con-
lston. Crewe. Crisis and Crossing fame.
but that L. beside the matter. The
Real Thing Ii a play that suits Miss
Crosman, and. what Is more. il suits
the public or that portion Of 1t to
and that is q large portion, to say
the least.
Miss Crosman has an ideal produc-
ton. There are only six persons In
the east. The play needs but one set
ting. Consequently the producer has
an opportunity to get the best In the
way Of support and scenery The OPP
portunify has not been overlooked.
for everyone in Miss Crosman's COM
pany Is worthy OF the author, the
star and the production. The two
children, who are a necessary. not to
say important. part In the develop
ment Of the comedy. are as clever In
their way as the grown-up players.
and greater praise cannot be given
them.

plosion took place there in June. 1909,
and he went to Cincinnati, where he
