~ HE heat was unbearable; and
when you have said that you
remember how astonishingly
well every one bore It. The
women grumbled about their
hair; the men complained that the
matches in the smoking.room would
not strike. There was rather less
activity in the deck.games now that
the ship was fairly In the tropics;
the demand for iced.drinks became
abnormal and the lengthy menu at
lunch and dinner was rather sighted.
People wanted to get back to their
chairs on deck, for on one side at
least there was something approach
ing a breeze. A great many people
slept at night in their chairs or had
the mattresses brought up from their
hunks and spread on the deck. In
the cabins. especially those which got
no breeze at all. In spite Of electric
fans, the atmosphere was like that OF
very warm conservatory. In the
bathrooms the cold shower had be-
come lukewarm and the moment you
left the water you felt the desire to
battle again. Dressing for dinner was
a torment, but It was a torture to
which everyone submitted. And the
hair which somehow or other the
women had made presentable re-
celved q finishing touch from the
punkahs which swung over the tables.
It rained a great deal. But the
storms. which came up quickly and
burst over the ship and swept on. did
not cool the air. They served only
to add to the general moisture and to
make everyone rather more sticky.
They we're aerial storms that hardly
affected the ocean.
Fair Voyage.
From Sydney to Auckland and
from New Zealand till now, when we
we're approaching the Fijian islands,

lions with their arms, their heads
their whole bodies. Then they swung
round and one behind another as IN
their native canoes they swung their
bodies in perfect time chanting loud
er and louder. Suddenly two Of the
girls sprang to their feet and began q
low sensuous dance. putting their
heads on one side, biting their lips
and swaying their bodies, moving
more and more rapidly. When, they
sank to the ground the men recon-
menced: by the time they had fin
ished their dance their thin skirts
were cllnging. to their bodies and
were even torn into shreds by the
violence OF their exertions. There
was q grim satisfaction in knowing
that the natives felt the heat even
as we did.
The dancers went on shore; on the
lefty native constables were arresting
a number of boys who had been div
ing for coins from the end Of the
pier: the ship backed out slowly into
the lagoon.
And, as II to make the occasion
more memorable. we were in that as
tonishing part Of the world where.
sailing eastward you gain a whole
day. We had crossed the line where
the days begin and having seen the
sun Of Tuesday rise on the west side
Of the line. the next morning. on the

EXTREMELY DULL DAY.
Traders Holding Back for Develop
 ments in Mexico.

New York. Oct. 26-Yesterday's s short Session of the stock market was extremely dull, owing to a very small attendance and the intention of many traders 10 remain out sef the market until affairs in Mexico have reached 8 more favorable basis. The usual pro
 fessiona1 trading in few stocks of the
 more important class was in evidence
 but there were many active issues that remained unquoted during the first
 hour The initial quotations in the standard issues were fraCtionally off and while Reading was unchanged on it's first sale it dropped back on the next few transactions. Union Pacific was 3-8 down and Pennsylvania show ed a lower price, and following un- changed quotations for United States Steel common and Amalgamated Cop per at the opening the prices sold off fractionally
 In the later trading the tone of-the market improved some, and at the close United States Steel common and preferred displayed fractional gains, as did American Can and a few other issues. But in Union Pacific common and preferred, the Rock Island issues and several of the less active special losses were recorded. Pennsylvania and Reading closed the days trading at prices unchanged from Fridays IcalIv was simply an incident so far as fts importance was concerned, as throughout the morning there was not a sufficient volume If business to show a fair representation of sentiment, and the irregular noVen ant of prices left the closing an indefinite one so far as foraca sting any trend.

HOLD YALE TO ScoRELEss TIE
Penalty Against Washington and Jef- ferson Saves Eli from Defeat.

2 New Haven. Oct 26-Washington and Jefferson held Yale to a scoreless tie Saturday in a game played in a qoWnpour that flooded Yale field to the depth Of nearly a. foot in places. But for g penalty for offside, after Knowles punt was blocked during the first min- ute or play. Washington and Jefferson would have scored a touchdown As IL was, the play was called back and Yale punted out of danger. In the third quarter on a tumble, Yale missed a touchdown by inches. when Washing ton and Jefferson regained the ball.
 Real football was impossible. Great Jumps of mud chung to the water soaked ball making goals from the held, which were frequently attempt ed, impossible. Garter, Yale's star left end, suffered a severely wrenched ankle in the latter part of the third quar- ter.
 The Virginians started strong. Yale received the kick off on their own five yard line, and Knowles attempted to punt out. The Yale line failed to hold, however, and the kick was blocked Bradin picked up the ball and ran over for touchdown, throwing the Washington and Jefferson enthusiasts into an ecstacy of joy. The play was called back, however. On the second try Knowles punted out of danger

PRESIDENT LYNCH.
GaFfney of Boston Nationals Will
 Stand by Him.

"I have not pledged my vote to any man. said James E. Gaffncy. owner of the Boston Nationals, while dis cussing the opposition to the 'reeIec- ton of President Thomas J.,Lynch of the National league. They must show me a better man than Tom Lynch be- fore I will consent to join the oppo- sition. When the league conyenes in December I will cast my vote as l think best.'
 MT. Gaffney knows all about the can didacy of Robert w Brown of Louis vile, but he refused to discuss it in any way. He criticised Lynchs ham, ding of the umpires last summer, but that was in the heat of battle. There is no doubt that the Boston magnate believes that the president of the league has tried to dispense justice with absolute fairness and that he is an honest man. Mir. Gaffney had some interesting things to say about the demands of the Baseball Players Fra ternity.

DICK MARSHALL'S RUN
 SAVES PENN. DEFEAT
Places Ball Between Goal Posts After 75 Yard Run-carIise 7, Penn. 7.

Philadelphia, Oct. 26.-Pennsyl- vania's eleven. outplayed by a lighter but more aggressive team from the Carlisle Indian school, was spared de- feat on Franklin field Saturday by Dick MarshalTs run three-fourths the length of the field to Q touchdown That one spectacular play, coming just as the second half was getting under way counterbalanced all of the 1n- dians' brilliant and consistent rushes through a line that gave way before their attack in every period but the last When the game ended the score was 8 tie, to '. but the Indians on straight football gained nearly five times as much ground as their rivals and had made seventeen first downs to two for Pennsylvania.
 In no previous game this season has an opposing back field ploughed through the Penn. defense as easily as the Indians did this afternoonA Penn. had good cause for alarm when soon after the opening of play Carlisle by irresistible plunging on the part ot Guyon. Calac and Brac1lin had the ball within stril1ingl distance of Penn. s goal. Alarm turned to consternation when the in the second period the Carlisle backs, Guyon in particular, tore even bigger holes through the local defense. made seven first downs and finally scored when Buyon, eIud- ing taclzlers, ran fifteen yards to touchdown. Only fumbling checked CarliSle's advance to another score, for the attack continued powerful through out the nerind.

 Gloom at Penn.
 The gathering of gloom is not con- fined entirely to Yale and Princeton, however, for Pennsylvania, Cornell and the Army received severe sebaclss dur ing Saturdays battdes in the mud. The best that the Quakers could do was to tie Carlisle, to '. and this all due to the sensational eighty yard run by Marshall late in the game.
 But for several determined stands at critical moments and MarshalFs in dividual exploit Pennsylvania would have been defeated. As it is the real honors of the game go to the abori zines.
 The powerful University of Pitts bIlrgh team. already victors over Car Hsle, added Cornell to it's list of vic tims by a score of 20 to :. Although a heavy aggregation the Pittsburgh players showed remarkable speed and an open game that surprised Cornell.
 The Army's margin of victory over Tufts was the smallest possible, com- ing as the result of a fumpred pass which the visitors turned into safety. Considering the wretched playing con- ditions the two elevens were evenly matched
