Budapest, May 4EContinuous street fighting was in progress throughout the city, especially in the factory dis trict, today, although the general strike of the Socialists was declared off last night when the government agreed to concede the manhood suff- rage as demanded.
 The factory owners tried to lock out their employees as d punishment and the men gathered together and raided the structures, breaking machinery. footing and in several instances apply ing the torch to the buildings. Troops were hurried to the scene but the tenn per of the mobs was most bitter. The soldiers were finally compelled to charge and fire on the crowds, many being wounded.
 Although the government stated that the suffrage concession would be made it is not expected this agree ment will be carried out as fully as the opposition leaders had hoped. The bill will include only some of the pro- visions demanded by the Socialists, 1t is said, but they are expected to ac- cept it's provisions on the ground that half a loaf is better than no bread.
 The session of parliament today was stormy in the extreme. Bitter denun- ciatory speeches were made by several of the opposition leaders and they held the government directly respon- sible for all the bloodshed that has

CORNELL BEATS PRINCETON AND
 HARVARD .EIGHTS

Boston. May 24-Shoving the bow of its shelf to the front at the slipping Of the leash, the bronzed crew from -the shores of Lake Cayuga held to the master stroke throughout and carried the silks of Cornell to a great victory over Harvard and Princeton in the varsity eight-oared boat race over the 11S-mile course in Charles River Basin yesterday. The Ithacans made clean sweep when the Cornell cubs outrowed the Harvard yearlings in the freshmen water duel
 Courtney's Oarsmen won the varsity race from Harvard by three lengths, with the nose of the Princeton shell less than ten feet in the rear of the Harvard bow. A clear length sep arated Cornell and Harvard at the fin ism of the freshman race. The var sity times were: Cornell, s:2s1-2: liar ward, e:35; Princeton, 9:36 The fresh man figures were: Cornell, 9:59; Har- ward, 10:0S
 Though finishing last in the varsity race the supporters of the Orange and Black were highly elated over the showing of the Tiger crew The stiff, choppy sea at the start did not augur we'll for Princeton. which has been rowing on the placid surface of Lake Carnegie. Harvard was used to the Charles in all it's moods and Cornell. accustomed to boating on the wind d, feakeeestAe choppy river. The Tigers foul lnelysunder the strange con- ditIoa- -3nd by a great finish barely failed to catch the Crimson oarsmen. There were several inches of water in the low Princeton shell at the finish.
 With Cornell catching the water first and gaining a half a length in the first ten strokes, the race settled down within the first two minutes to a ter rife struggle for second place between Harvard and Princeton. The tenacity with which the Tigers clung to the Crimson crew was the feature of the contest All the power which the Harvard eight could plunge into their Utro1ke and slide was not sufficient to gain open water at any time over 4heir pureuers. Cornell had open wa Fer at the half mile. but Princeton's Dow oar was even with Haryard's stroke

EDGAR B. WHEELER DIES OF INJURIES Horse Scared by Auto Dragged

 Horse Trainer

New Preston, May 24-Edgar B. Wheeler. one of the best known horse breeders and trainers in the state, died here early today, from a frac- tured skull received when he was dragged for two miles by runaway horse late yesterday afternoon. MT. Wheeler was about 50 years old and had recently purchased young horse and was driving him to a low racing sulky over the country roads near Lake Waramaug. The animal was unused to automobiles and showed fright at the approach of a car driv- en by Prof. c. H. Beard. of Columbia Mn1Es5Elssss sss sssdens sd sa% Uf Nfw ths horse was frighteneds and Stopped his machine after turning out to one side ef the road Mir Wheeler evidently thought he could drive by without trouble but as he drew near the ma- chine the horse gave sudden jump. The jerk threw Wheeler backward from his seat, the heel of his right shoe catching in the .stirrup on the right shaft and letting him fall over the sulky so that his head struck the roadway.
 After the sudden jump the horse ran. dragging Wheeler along the road. his head -bunlping-up and down. Af- ter going a half mile down the road the horse doubled on it's tracks and ther took to the fields wnere it ran around and around until finally stop ped by two farmhands.
 When picked up. Wheeler was un- conscious and although he was taken at once to Hopkins Hotel in Profess so- Peard's auto he never regained consciousness. Examination showed that there was a big fracture at the base of the skull and only his great vitality allowed him to live as long as he did.
 While MT. Wheeler raised many horses that later made marks for themselves on tracks his notable out- mt was the Klondike, which he bought as a young colt and trained, later selling it to Tom Sharkey, the pugilist. and a syndicate of horsemen who made several killings with 1t on the eastern circuits.
 A widow and three children survive MT. Wheeler. the youngest child be- ing but six years old.

This seemed sufficient notice to the other crews that they must battle alone, and with plenty of reserve power, the Cor nell oarsmen watched the fight astern. At about one and a half miles liar yard hit up the stroke in a last effort to shake off the Princetonians, but the Orange and Black responded instantly and in the dash to the line gained foot by foot on the Crimson until there was only one clock beat between them as the flags fell.

with the Worthing it's. We got the
game started and was progressing
nicely, when n Of our men was chas-
ing a ball, he ran across a trap door
and fell In and was lost for a few
minutes and that gave the other fell
lows 3 scores. We had no wire nett
ball would sneak away from the catch
er and leave a fine opening for cores
to come in. But a ball game amount
ed to something then, and we could
bring in some scores and that is what
counts In a game. We would bring
in all the way from 20 to 80 scores in
a game and the games we're always
exciting it seems to me that a ball
game now days Is not much to it, with
only l or 2 scores, can't be very in
teresting. No give to me the old
willow stick for a bat and a good
pitcher and watch the boys crowd one
another off the bases and make home
runs and keep the score man busy
putting down tallies.
