NO CHANCE IN
 BASEBALL RULES
Idea is to Strengthen Defense Rather
 Than Meet Power of Defense.

New York, Ff b. 2.-There will be no radical changes in the playing rules of the college football for 1912. That much was admitted by one and all of the solons who have the fate of the game in their hands. These assembled in tae annual session a. the Holland House today. The joint committee of the Intercollegiate and Football Associations took no pains. to SUD- press such an attitude when the first days sessicn had adjourned.
 A great many changes were urged. A number of them were radical, es- tpecially those dealing with the freak plays, the forward pass and onside kick. The radicals met with little encouragement, the great majority of the legislative body believe that the game will be improved only on bes. ter balancing the offense and defense of the present style of competition. The idea seems to obtain that the Of fense could be strengthened to meet the power of the defense.

IL will make market for much land the north who are more inclined to buy something on waich they can en- gage in diversified farming. Those people know nothing about raising cotton and do not want 70 engage in it. In consequence w find a disposition on their part to dodge what is represented to them as cotton plantations. The success thae has been made on our hill lands in fruit and truck growing by rumber of our prominent farmers in those lines is only fair indication of what may be done by intelligent and sue cessful farmers from the north who have all their Ewes raised live stock and variety of agricultural prod- ucts. Hence I think the building oi the road will mean much, not only @ those having lands out in that sec tion for sale, but to our city by rea- son of it being filled up with de2ir- able class of farmers. It will all ra- dound to our benefit"

The Most Influential Men ill New York Resisted Issuance of Free

Albany, x. Y., Feb. 2.-Against the recommendations of District Attorney Whitman and Colonel Joseph F. Scott, superintendent of prisons, Governor Dix tonight denied executive elem ency to F. G. Brandt, Who had asked communication of the thirty year sen- tenca to state prison. He also direct ed that all records, reports and oih- .. papers ill the case be sealed
 Brandt was committed tG Sing .Si9. five years ago after pleading guilty to a charge of burglary in the first de- gree for entering the home of M. l.. Schiff, where he had formerly been employed as vale. and stealing two stick pins.
 The governor had been Two Gays reviewing the reports in t c case and arrived at the decision, wh.cl WAS an- nounced in the following statement made public through his legal advis- or, Seymour Vamcant Voord.
 'The application for commutatio of a sentence of F. A. Brandt is de- nied There seems to have been an attempt to inject mystery irto the case, but there is no mystery. Tie prisoner made an application for clemency and he was afforded every opportunity to present plea in full. l hereupon ask for report from the district attorney and presiding judge, which had been filed. I have receiv- ed no other papers.
 "There have been no arguments or ally or by brief. No written or oral statements, however, in the complaint in the original case, or any attorney on his behalf has been received have decided absolutely and entirely on the records.

 Does the governors statemer, mean that no word was received fro;n the Schiffs or their representatives o' MT. Vansant was asked.
 Yes, so far as I know" was the reply.
 It was explained that in view of the favorable recommendations by in- terested officials and that the facts that arrayed against Brandt was the influence and money of one of the biggest banking houses in the world together with tho activities of thrfe Of the best lawyers in 4l.e country, the public might get an impression, not withstanding the statement of Cover nor Dix that the extraordinary pres sure brought to bear has been effec- tive.
 Jumping to his feet and shaking his fist MT. Vansant declared with en- phasis:
 "No influence was brought to bear as far as I know. You cannot mak: | that tco plain. The governor has said he decided this case on record and on | the records alone he has done so, so | far as I know. The governor has de- cided this case himself. I do not say that I approve of it or disapprove ot it. It is his decision and he has got to stand on it.
