affected all nes--agriculture, mining,

bigger football teams in the east, with

DROPS BUSINESS
TO WATCH GAMES
With the End Of the Contests
Today the Curtain Falls
On Season Of 1915
By Fred s. Ferguson.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.)
Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 2O.-Ideal
football weather, a tremendous crowd
and exceptionally keen interest were
assured for today's gridiron battle be-
tween Yale and Harvard
Clear, crisp air and cloudless sky,
with not breath of wind provided per-
feet playing. conditions. The field was
dry and fast and in faultless condition.
At a surprisingly early hour the foot
ball fans began rolling into Cambridge.
They gave evidence that predictions of
$4,000 attendance would be made
good.
Yale's recent heroic "come back"
served to add unusual interest in to-
days meeting. In spite of the fact
that the blue had been humbled four
times in her preliminary games, her
supporters were sufficiently confident
to cover quantities of Harvard money
at 10 TO 8.
Emissaries from the camps of both
teams declared that every man who will
enter the fray is in satisfactory shape.

that he went from his pretty little
farm over to Chandler that Saturday
mornirg to do harm to other property
owners. This then is another weight
on his side of the scales.
But let us look at the other size
and see what they have charged
against Matt Graham. They say that
he is member Of the United Mine
Workers of America. They say that
he was seen at Chandler by Mozart
Lewis. who testified upon the stand.
They say that he was seen by Seip al
the union meeting in Florence on the
Friday previous to the eventfui Satur-
day. They say that he was one of the
men who voted to take Chandler.
In answer totheir first charge aud

instructs the jury that there is no
evidence in this case which shows
or tends to show. that the United Mine
Workers of America is an unlawful

shown that he is member OF or con.

All afternoon on Wednesday he con-

5 O'Clock because of the illness of
Juror Charles Lackey, who was run
ming high temperature because Of
bad cold and touch of the grip. Mr..
Lackey could not hold his head up
most of the afternoon.
Another record breaking crowd
filed the large room. Every foot of
space was taken up and many crowd
ed down onto the rail. Women sat in
the window ledges and stood upon
benches that they might see the de-
fendants and the jury and the speak
er. The audience represented every
locality of the county and showed the
widespread interest this unique trial
has aroused.
Mr.. Hawkins opened the continu-
ance OF his argument Wednesday If
ternoon by stating that 1t was within
the province of the jury to weigh the
evidence as presented and to deter
mines which side had the greatest
weight For the convenience Of the
jury. the speaker said that he would

their eyes and for their enlIshten-

He aDtly illustrated the balanced

he used as weights. taking the counsel

Mr.. Hawkins brought out his points
strongly. cieveriy and exhaustiyeiy.
The speaker then read instructions

The slth instruction dweIt upon the

The Case Of Matt Graham.
Mr.. Hawkins. after the reading Of
these instructions. set forth to place
Mr. Graham's case before the jury as
the speaker saw 1t. He quoted the
Instructions to show that the pre-

Then Mr. Hawkins told Of the meet
ing Of the union at Florence ON FRI
day. the oath of April. and said that
it had been shown that the meeting
was not held for the purpose of a.
ranging an attack on Chandler. but
that Seip himself had made that mo-
ten and that it would not be listened

Mr. Hawkins took up John Yietz'
case comparatively briefly. He sasd
that he was charged with being
member Of the United Mine Workers
and OF being at Chandler on Sunday
afternoon. Mr.. Hawkins contended
that no witness had anything to say
about him before Sunday afternoon
At about O'Clock. The speaker SAID
that Mr.. Montgomery had declared
that there was not much evidence
against YIctz. -and yet they presume
to try to hang him when they mako q

Euloaizes Mine Workers.
I'VE come now" said Mr.. Hawkins,
to the consideration of the connection
of Dave Robb with the killing of VIII
liam King. If Mr.. Robb is bad man
how is it that minister of the gospel
came all of the way out here from
Indiana to testify to his good name?a
Mr.. Hawkins then read poem of a
religious character. written by MIR
Robb, but the court ruled that it was
improper to state the name Of the
author of the production to the Jury
and Mr.. Robb's name was Withdrawn.
Mr.. Hawkins told of Robb's associa-
tion with the United Mine Workers
OF America and eulogized that organi-
zation and its work IL alevating and
bettering the material and Industrial
conditions OF its msmbers.. He said
the union was honored BY having one
of its members. William b. Wilson.
as a member OF the cabinet OF the
president of the United States. Mr.
Robb came to Colorado from Indiana,
at the beginning of the strike as nm
ancial agent for the United Mine

a gentleman ever since. ss III
Mr.. Hawkins then gave = sumJaary

The prosecution. he said. had put the

Williamsburg, at which the Pueblo

regrettable. continued Mr.. Hawkins,
but Mr.. Robb had nothing to do with
It
Counsel for the state would send

defendants to the penitentiary be-
cause they could not remember the
