STUDENTS YIELD TO POLICE
Columbia Sophs and Freshmen
Call Off Battle.

Between the pouring rain. the appear
ance as from the clouds OF two wagon
loads of police reserves and a husky ag-
gregation of freshmen, the ardor of Co
lumbia sophomores was dampened last
night when they met for their annual
smoker at the Claremont Rink Brook
Ign.
After an argument with the freshmen,
which came near turning into fight, and
ranting at the police. who didn't mind IL.
the sophomores made up their mind that
their smoker was not worth holding. and
deserving their ten kegs OF beer turned
about and went back 10 Manhattan to bed.
Twenty freshmen, among them the pres
ident of the class. had been captured by
the "sophs" and brought over to the rink
in a moving van. 1t was the intention
of the "sophs" to make the freshies per-
form for them and defy their class to
rescue them. Sixty freshmen, aided by
twenty juniors. were In the rescue party
that headed for Brooklyn at o'clock. At
the rink they found band Of sophomores
guarding tho freshman captives. The
rescuers made a rush, but were at first
repulsed. Things were beginning to swing
their way, however. when the reserves
arrived.
Neither class was at first inclined to
heed the police, but they changed their
mind when they were threatened with ar
rest Finally. the freshmen consented TO
retire IL their classmates were. released,
and the sophomores agreed to call OF
their smoker.

revolver, and when he threatened to
blow the lock off the door was opened

CLEARS PRENDERGAST
ON "CATH0LIC ISSUE"
John D. Crimmins Defends Con-
troller, Saying He Deserves
Credit for His Action.

John ID. Crimmins. one OF the most
prominent Catholics in the city, enectu-
ally disposed of the so-called Catholic
issue" in the candidacy OF Controller
Prendergast Yesterday. Some time ago
there was considerable bitterness against
the Controller because lie insisted upon
q strict method of accounting Tor moneys
paid to Catholic institutions.
In a letter written TO Joseph NJ. Price
Mr.. Crimmins said the efforts and labors
of the Controller were second 10 those OF
no official. that he had been faithful and
conscientious and was deserving of the
support OF every good citizen.
Speaking Of the incident that caused
some feeling at the time. Mr.. Crimmins
wrote:
There had been no proper accounting
by the managers of these charitable in
stitutions. and no satisfactory reports
were made as to how the money con-
tributed by the city was expended. The
law not only required this, but II was
eminently proper that our citizens should
have a full knowledge Of these eXpendlt-
ures. There might have been question
as to the method by which this informa-
ton should have been obtained. The pur-
pose was, beyond question. desirable
Through Investigations that were
made by experts on both sides system
was developed and business method OF
bookkeeping established. A great deal OF
Irritation existed at the time and feeling
ran high. In the end a complete under
standing was arrived at, and to-day II Is
fully realized by all who ar, familiar with
this subject matter that IL was we'll the
question was raised. Mr.. Prendergast de-
serves credit for what he did

TOREAD0R BUILDS CHAPEL
Gomez Saved by Religious
Medal from Being Gored.
rBy Gable to The Tribune. ]

Seville, Oct 24.-Almost all the in
habitants OF this city attended to-day
the dedication Of a sumptuous chapel
erected to Nuestra Sonora de las An
gustias (Our Lady Of Anguish). The
cost of building the chapel has been
borne by Rafael Gomez, one of the most
noted bullhghters in Spain.
A few months ago Gomez was gored
by a bull in the bullring. and it seemed
for a while certain that he had been
fatally injured. When examined. how
ever, it was found that the bulls horn
had been stopped by a medal with the
image of the Virgin which Gomezs
mother had placed on his breast.
Gomez believed firmly that he had
been saved by miracle and promised
to erect chapel in his native city.
