SEWANEE GOES DOWN IN
 DEFEAT BEFORE GEORGIA

Chattanooga, October 10.-(SpeciaL)
 Failure of Captain Tolley to kick goal
 frcm the 2o-yard line sent the purple of
 Sewanee down in defeat before the Red
 and Black of Georgia at sewanee this
 afternoon. Two powerful eevens fought
 in sea of mud for 60 long minutes and
 the one point difference .n the final
 count ably represents the relative strength
 of the two rivals
 Georgia's sole touchdown came in the
 first five minutes of play.
 Cunningham's warriors received the
 kick and after single exchange of points started steady procession up the field. Thrash carried the ball over an end around end smash just off tackle. Hen derson booted perfect goal after kick out
 Sewanee rallied after the Georgians had drawn first blood, and as it subsequently, proved, fatal blood and in the third period finally pierced the Red and Black defense. Receiving the ball at the open ing of the third quarter the Tigers swept Up the field much in the same manner as had Georgia in the opening period. Toliey hurled through the line for the touchdown directly under the goal posts. He failed, however, to kick goal and vic- tory went to Georgia. Both teams fought desperately in the final quarter, but the ball was in mid-field when tho whistle blew.
 The game was fast clean and furious. Logan was removed by Referee Blake for roughing it in the final period. Today E defeat was the Tigers first upon the | native soil The lineup and summary follows:
 Georgia-Logan, left end; Garmany, left tackle; Hitchcock, left guard; Henderson center Girard, right guard; Mcconnell right tackle; Thrash, right end; Dorsey, quarterback; Thompson, right half: Holt sendorf, left half; Broyles. fullback.
 Sewanee-Cruigington, left end; Parker, left tackle; Harrison. left guard; Scott.

Deal played off second base and Schang made quick throw to trap him. Deal instantly saw the play and dashed for third. He was about half down the patch when Barry got Schang's throw and he stood holding the ball, and Deal slid into third base. Whether it was because Baker was not close enough to the bag to get the throw or whether Barry believed it was too late to head off Deai is not known.
 Hooters Go Wild
 Manager Stallings and the players on the bench were wild with joy and the Boston rooters made an awful din as they realized that run was about to be made. James struck out for the fourth time, but this did not lessen the enthu- siasm for the Bostonians. Mann came to bat as Collins and McInnis walked ever and spoke to Plank, and the heady second baseman of the Mackmen made move with his head that was no doubt a signal to the other players not in the confab.
 Whatever the Athletics tried to pull off did not work out for Mann smashed a low fly to right field. Collins made a won derful try 10 get the ball. He dashed back and leaped into the air. The ball tipped his fingers and fell and Deal was safe with the run that won the game.
 Mann went down to second on a short passed ball and when Evers was given a base on ball it looked as though the Braves would score again. Gather srded the inning however, by forcing Evers at second, Barry to Collins
 In the face of James pitching it looked all over for the Athletics, but the Boston twirler wabbled little in the ninth and things looked very dangerous for tho vis- itors. Barry brought the Philadelphia rooters to their toes by waiting and get ting pass Schang brought groans by striking out. but an instant later these were turned to cheers as Barry flashed to second for a clean steal. Walsh was sent in to bat for Plank and received a base on ball. 1t was up to Murphy and the crowd held it's breath.

Tuscaloosa, October 10.-(Snecial.)-- bama won from Birmingham college this afternoon by the score or 30 to O. For three-quarters the game rocked along without either team showing any form, but by rally in the last period. the local players turned the contest into a procession.
 With the score standing B to o at the beginning of the last 10 minutes of play, Alabama began a vicious assault upon their opponents, and before the quarter was over had scored six addition touch downs and goals.
 Despite this rally, which occurred only after the lighter collegians were exhaust ed, there was little in Alabama play to encourage her supporters. Both the of fense and defense were ragged.

City Council asking for the informa-
ton and the costs of such service.
Councilman Slower. chairman of the
finance committee of Council, also
was present The report showed that
S.049, 800 cubic feet of water had been
consumed in the public schools, and
other public buildings of the city the

MILFORD READY
FOR CONFERENCE

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
MILFORD, Del March 2O-The
Rev L. A. Bennett. pastor of the
First Methodist Protestant Church
OF Milford, at which the eighty-second
annual Maryland conference will
convene the week beginning wednes-
day, April 1. has announced that he
has secured homes for most OF the
delegates who will come to Milford.
While the committee in charge OF
looking after the comforts and ac-
commodations of the visiting church
people have not secured information
from some of those expected, il is
thought that about two hundred dele
gates and laymen viii be present
AT the present time, Milford has but
one hotel engaged in business. and
this accounts for the fact that many
private families have volunteered to
entertain those who come to Milford

CITY LOSES
MUCH WATER
FROM CREEK

for the city if II could get all the reve-
nuc due, as in that case, according to the
figures furnished by Col Stover it
would be possible TO give much lower
water rates TO the citizens Of Whining
ton than even the Water Department
had hoped TO do under the new meter
system.
Mr.. Draper mentioned that in view OF
the developments il was no wonder that
the Water Board could never give Coun-
eli a correct estimate as to the amount
of water consumed eom the Brandy
wine, as the report showed that half of
the stream was being diverted, from
which the Water Board received no reve-
nuc.
Councilman Stover's revelation rcla.
tive 10 the manner in which the city's
water supply was cut down created
much discussion last evening, as it indi-
Gates a possible scarcity of water for
the city during the summer months
should a drought occur.
The report and information from the
Water Board was submitted to Council
N'"i'iNtNl ANAt'fNiN a l''tt'A HA''NAN- va
the Water Board held yesterday after
noon. and it was the uirect result of ac-
tion taken by Council last week at which
time they adopted resolution request
ing the Water Department to supply
them with the desired information.
Attached TO the report was a COPY Of
the agreement entered into in 1908 be-
tween the Street and Sewer Department,
'ho Jessup and Moore Paper Co. and the
Joseph Bancroft and Sons Company,
which gives the Banroft Company the
rights to half the flow Of the Brandy
wine. This agreement was published in
these columns on Wednesday.
Following the reading of the re-
port and agreement Council decided,
unon motion OF Colonel Slower. 70 ask
City Solicitor Daniel O. Hastings for
an opinion as to the legality of the
agreement between the Street and
Sewer Department and the two cor
porations.
Following the action upon the re-

ing of the Board of Water Commits
sioners, held on March 10th, we are
in receipt OF communication from
the Clerk of Council enclosing your
resolution Of March 18th, requesting
First, relative to the cost of water
supplied to public buildings and de-
partments, and fire houses within
the City of Wilmington; second, the
names Of any person, firm OF corpor-
alton taking water from the Brandy
wine creek within the limits of the
City of Wilmington, either for manu-
featuring purposes or distribution to
private residences in violation of law.
The Board of Water Commits
sioners by resolution referred your
inquiry TO our chief engineer Mr..
Hopes. with the request that he give
a report on same. At a meeting held
this day, he makes report to us, copy
of which we herewith submit.
AS to whether any of this water is
being taken in violation of law, we
refer you to the agreement attached
to the report of the chief engineer for
an opinion by the city solicitor.
Yours very truly,
Board OF Water Commissioners -
The Commissioners, in discussing
the reply, said they could not say the
water taken from the Brandywine, by
the Joseph Bancroft and Sons Com
pany and the Jessup and Moore Com
pany was in violation of the law
and this caused Councilman StoveI
to ask, who would know" Presi-
dent Poole and Mr.. Wilson both
answered "The City Solicitor" and
Mr. Stover asked if the City Solicitor
was not the Boards legal adviser.
Councilman Stover said IF l was
member of the Board I wouldn't
want to confess that | didn't know
, The question might be asked why the
Board did not know these things
Further discussion on the subject
ceased when Captain Wilson asked
Mr.. Slower what procedure he
thought should be taken if the water
was taken in violation of the law. Mr.
