ELIMINATION CONTESTS
BEGIN IN EAST TODAY

New York November 7.--Footban games
which will have decided bearing on
the ultimate ranking OF eastern college
elevens are scheduled for tomorrow aft
ernoon and contests mark the passing of
the preliminary season. They will bring
together several unbeaten elevens. The
feature games of the day bring together
Harvard and Princeton at Princeton and
Pennsylvania and Dartmouth at Phila-
delpha
The Harvard squad. more than 30
strong, spent the night before the game
in this city and will move on to Prince
ton early tomorrow morning. 1t was
said that every member of the first string
combination was in perfect condition, al
though the Crimson team is conceded to
be the strongest eleven in the east this
season, experts, have pointed out that
its defense is weak as compared to the
offense. The fact remains that not one
of the six teams that have faced the
Crimson to date has been able to score
a touchdown against the varsity team by
straight football, while the Crimson ma
chine has rolled up 40 points and at no
time has the Cambridge eleven been in
danger of defeat.
First Full Power
In Princeton, however, a team stronger
and better grounded in the rudiments of
football will be faced and the full power
of the Harvard team will be tested. The
Tiger aggregation is both fast and strong
and considered as a whole, the Prince
ton line should be able to hold the Grim
son forwards in check, but the Harvard
backfield is expected to prove faster and
more dangerous. If Law is at his best

OUT WITH INJURIES
Lockwood and Taylor May
Not Appear Against
Tech Today

Auburn, November 4. (Special) }
Auburn will enter the Tech game Satur-
day minus the services of two of her
best players-Lockwood and Taylor.
Lockwood has not yet recovered from
an injury to his knee in the Louisiana
game, but will be all right for the Van

time, as he may be out for the year
After slow start caused by an in
jury to his ankle he was coming along
fast and his speed and. power would
have proved a powerful factor in the
coming important games. These are
the heaviest players on the Auburn
squad and their loss deprives the line
of any advantage 1t might have had
because of superior weight
Auburn will go into the Tech game
with the lightest lineup of the season
and will hardly equal the weight of the
Tech squad The team is playing very
hard football, however, and will give a
good account of itself. The scrimmag-
ing on Tuesday and Wednesday was
the fiercest seen on the Auburn field
this year. New plays and new signals
have been given the team this week and
the practices have been continued after
dark by the aid of electric lights on the

and Taylor, the rest of the squad is iii

Huntsville, November 7.-(SpeciaI )-The
latest development in the grand jury mud
die is the announcement that Judge
Daniel w. Speake of the circuit court has
ordered a grand jury to be convened here
at the opening of his court November II.
He ordered the Madison county jury box
brought to him at Decatur yesterday aft
ernoon and names for the proposed grand
jury were drawn out. This action is re-
garded as an indication that Judge Speake
regards the action OF the recent grand
jury void because the number of original
grand jurymen was allowed to fall below
15. several members having been excused
and their places filled with new men,
The circuit court grand jury will be an
extra grand Jury, and 1t is stated that
II will review the work of it's predecessor
There is no new ground to be gone over
since only two and one-half weeks Will
have elapsed when the new body is i'm
panelled. The last grand jury indicted
several city and county officials and rec
commended the impeachment of the pro-
bate judge, circuit clerk, five county COM
missioners and a Justice of the peace.
The first real test of the legality of
the last grand jury will come up before
Judge Ballentine in the case of Probate
Judge w. I. Lawler, whose impeachment
was recommended.
Attorneys for Judge Lawler will make
a motion to set aside the recommended
tions of the grand jury, and will set
forth the contention that the grand jury
was not legally grand jury.

Baltimore Platform

That the democratic party recognizes
the power of Congress to abrogate trea-
ties and favors such action where such
treaties are in conflict with our interests
is shown in the Baltimore platform and
in the clause relating to the merchant
marine, which says:
I'VE urge upon Congress the speedy EN-
actment Of laws for the greater security
of life and property at sea; and we favor
the repeal of all laws and the abroga-
ton of such treaties with other nations
as provide for the arrest and imprison-
ment of seamen charged with desecration,
with violation of their contract service.
Such laws and treaties are un-American.
and violate the spirit If not the letter of
the constitution of the United States"
If the democratic party then favors the
abrogation of such treaties and recognizes
the power of Congress--on which point
there can be no controversy-to so abro-
gate them, and IL the party recognizes.
as does many of its leaders, that the
rope of maximum benefit to the people
arising out of the Underwood tariff bill
can only be realized by the rehabilitation
of our merchant marine, why should Con-
gress not go step further and abro-
gate the trade treaties which stand in
the way of the only effectual aid that the
administration has open to 1t to give to
American shipping? There is no reason

Mississippians came flushed with a tie
score with Mississippi Agricultural and
Mechanical, and victories over Tulane and
the smaller colleges of their territory, but
were outplayed in every feature OF the
game.
For Marion Collins at quarter, Reid,
Jones, Rodwell and Nesmith were con-

He made all the gains for the visitors and

downs.

Encouragement of Europe

Every big European nation encourages
It's shipping substantially in some form.
The trade of South America goes in the
major part to Europe, when 80 per cent
of 1t should be ours, and 1t is because
Europe by subsidizing her ships furnishes
a superior passenger. mail and freight
service than we can furnish, and she
craftiy keeps us in the background
through diplomatic superiority which
treaties, which this country has not yet
developed the courage to throw into the
waste baskets.
Ii stands to reason that il an American
company could afford to put on a first
class mail passenger and express line be-
tween the United States and South Amer
lea, with the security of fair return on
the investment 1t would do so. American
capital moreover. Is looking round all the
time for investments of this character and
would take this up if there was money
in it. But American investors are not
philanthropists and so will not establish
a line in competition with Europe. where
no sort of figuring can promise any i'm
mediate interest or return on the capital
invested. Europe recognizes this advan-
tage and sees the helpless state in which
this country is placed. and fights to keep
it there, but If the signs of the times are
anything to go by, Congress also sees tile
situation as plainly as Europe and will
precipitate the trade war-if it means
such-and take steps to begin our trade
expansion by abrogating those of our ob-
jectionable trad etreaties which effec-
jectionable trade treaties which effec-
American ships.
1t is more than likely that the long ses-
sion will have submitted to it such leg
islation.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-11-08

why Congress should not take such ac-
tion, and since the state department has
adopted the course it has, it is either up
to Congress to repeal the clause in the
tariff bill and surrender the fight for a
merchant marine. or stiffen the backbone
OF the state department by repeal of the
conflicting trade treaties.
