ST. PAUL in FOG
Passengers Saw Wake of Other
Vessel $50 Feet Away After
She Had Passed.

With her arrival here yesterday from
Southampton il was learned that the
American liner st. Paul was unpleas-
antly close TO an unknown steamship
in a fog at 5 a. m. on June 90.
Captain Passow said: when ] heard
the other vessels siren dead ahead |
took the headway off the st. Paul. The
other ship, think, did the same. She
worked over TO the south, and we went
to the north. We were never very
close"
Several passengers who were awak-
ened by the fog signals said they saw
the wake of the unknown steamship
about $50 feet away as she passed.
Among the st. Paul's passengers was
Mrs. Sum Mark, Chinese woman,
twenty-nine years old. wife of Lon
don tea merchant She came this this
country when three years old and lived

Philadelphia, July 5.-The big bal

in The suburbs of Trenton, \. j., to-

The pilot. Arthur 7. Atherholt, and
his assistant. Philip Sharpless, OF

From a comparatively low altitude
the Pennsylvania rose to an altitude
OF 10000 feet and was swept across
the Delaware River near Lambertville.
As the balloon ascended the air be-
came colder and the occupants shiy-.

HUERTA ELECTS
HIMSELF AGAIN
Vice Presidency Given TO
Blanquet, His War
Minister.
BELIEVED ALL WILL
BE DECLARED INVALID
Only Few Votes Cast in Capital
and Elsewhere on Ballots
Dictator Prepared.
rBy Gable to The Tribune

Mexico City, July 5.-Huerta polled
an almost unanimous vote for Pres-
dent in the elections to-day. but il is
thought that the elections will be de-
clared invalid.
General Banquet, Huerta's Minister
of War. was the favored candidate for
Vice-Presdent.
The elections were held in all that
part of Mexico controlled By Huerta
and included Deputies and Senators.
In Mexico City few votes were cast
and indifference was shown every
where. The returns indicate the re-
election of all the members of the
Chamber Of Deputies and the Senate.
Vera Cruz. July 5.--Mexicans here
from the interior and those just beyond
the Americans lines do not regard So
riously the elections held to-day. It
is pointed out that such elections
could hardly have any conciliatory ef-
feet on the Constitutionalists, and
never could be regarded as legal, since
the government is powerless to comply
with the provisions Of the law that the
votes be cast freely throughout the
territory. No announcement has ever
been made as to the candidates.
That General Huerta purposes to re-
peat the virtually compulsory choice OF
himself and General Banquet for the
Presidency and the Vice Presidency,
respectively. as he did last year, is the
story brought here to-day by judge
from Jalapa. He said that he had re-
ceived instructions TO prepare the bal
lots. publish an announcement that an
election was to be held and to establish
polling places in the usual manner, bat
to see to il that all votes cast were
for Huerta and Banquet.
According to this Judge. he inquired
the penalty should he fail to follow
these instructions. He was told tina.
he would be fined 200 pesos and com
mitted to Jail. He informed the Jefe
Politico that he could not agree TO
carry out the order and paid the fine,
at the same time expressing his will
lingness TO go to Jail. The Jefe Po-
litico. in the belief that he could easily
be arrested when necessary, failed TO
send him to prison. and the rebellious
Judge, taking advantage of the delay,
escaped within the American lines.
Quick returns from the elections are
not likely. as many Of the places where
the balloting is supposed to take place
are isolated, and after the returns are
all in meeting OF the electors must
be held. There naturally would ensue
a considerable interval before the IN
auguration Of the President
Any suggestion that in the elections
General Huerta is leaving the choice
to the people, or even to small part
OF the people, IS rdiculed by Mexicans
here and by foreigners familiar with
the conditions.

10Y PREVAILS IN
HARVARD CAMP
Players Uninjured in Game with
Tigers and Await Yale
Confidently.
rBy Telegraph to Tie Tribune

Cambridge. Mass. Nov. s.-The Har-
ward football players came through the
Princeton game without injury. That
Mahan and Pennock should not have
been hurt in the least was source
of great satisfaction 10 the Crimson.
The victory has silled the team with
confidence for the Yale game, two
weeks hence.
There will be little work for the
regulars tomorrow. but on Tuesday
practice will start again. and in ear
nest. The Harvard men will play Brown
this week and, because Of the show
ing the Robinson outfit made at New
Haven the coaches are figuring that
they will have TO pay more than pass
ing attention to the coming match.
At the same time several of the regu.
lars will not play again until the
Yale game.
The work of Francke, Weston, Par
son and Bigelow was considered rood
enough against the Tigers. These four
men are the new players. and 20 have
them come along 50 we'll at the erj
of the campaign surely is a genuine
panacea for the troubles of the early
season. Bgelow is now very likcl- Ia

and. secondly, it seemed TO me that
is third line Of defence was entirely
too far removed TO be Of adequate as
sistance TO the first line against such
an attack as Harvard showed. But ]
maintain that the reason Princeton
showed so poorly was because Harvard
refused to allow her TO play her own
game.
As all football men know, it is easy
for any team 10 play well extensively
against west wind" teams, but when
the defence makes it as disagreeaDle as
Harvard did Tor Princeton. 1t is we'll
nigh impossible to maintain any con
tinuity OF attack Not only IS this
true Of Princetou's offence, but the
converse was particularly noticeable in
Princeton's defensive tactics. As have
already noted. ! believe the Princeton
defence was at fault in theory, and in
its execution its inherent weakness was
greatly magniiied by the choice Of plays
which Logan. the Harvard quarterback
directed against II.
In further justification to the Prince
ton team, II is known fact that foot
ball teams. like the Individual. have
distinct on and off days. In other
words, | have seen many team per
form as well as Harvard did yesterday
and then a week later. for no apparent
reason, the same team against the same
opponents, play even more crudely than
Princeton did on Saturday.
Unless this popularity OF football
teams is kept in mind. undue criticism
is apt 10 be heaped upon the losing
side. and a failure TO give due credit
20 the team that caused its opponent,
defeat; therefore, | should like further
10 dwell upon the performance of the
Harvard team, but before doing so !
cannot refrain from giving a word Of
praise TO Captain BALM of the Prince
ton team. The duty of stopping Har-
wards strongest plays was assigned 10
him, and with the exception OF a few
times. when his overZealousness was
his undoing, he successfully carried out
his coaches instructions, and, what is
more, he stuck to his job until the
final whistle blew.
Harvard Surprised Admirers.
The Harvard team exceeded the ex-
pectations Of its partisans in almost
every respect, but the point that
pleased the coaches most was the man
ner in which they outfought Princeton.
Many Of the Harvard team, through
loss OF practice from accident. were in
no shape 10 stand the pace Of cham
pionship game. yet every man seemed
imbued with superhuman strength.
