Football Players Worn Out by Hard Games. The members of the University of Ore son football team came In from Pendleton on the Chicago-Portland special yesterday afternoon, and took the 8:30 P. M. train for Eugene. The players are completely worn out after their long series of games, and Coach Smith said that practice will not be resumed until early next week. Murphy and McBrlde, the two players who were injured in the Idaho game, were recovering rapidly, and Murphy will be In his place at quarter-back on Thanks giving day. McBrlde may be able to play, and If he is, the team will be in much better shape to meet Multnomah. The players are not disheartened over their defeat, but accept the situation gracefully, and declare that they will be in the game next season with a stronger eleven than ever. Speaking of the Idaho-Washington trip. Manager C. A. Redmond said: "We were very unfortunate In having two of our best men crippled In the first game, for we could do very little effective team work in the other contests. Considering the way the team was patched up, the men aid very well, especially in the Whitman game. We could have won at Moscow if we had not lost McBrlde and Murphy early In the game. As it was, our team out played Idaho. Once we lost the ball only a few feet from Idaho's goal. "The game at Pullman was lost on ac count of fumbles, but the weather was very cold, and our fellows were almost worn out, not having recovered from the Idaho game. When we played Whitman the boys were In such poor shape that it was impossible to win. although they pre vented their opponents from scoring until late in the second half. We have no com plaint to make about the manner In which we were treated by the different colleges, although we got the worst of a good many decisions at Pullman. We received the best treatment In Walla Walla. The Whitman fellows are true sportsmen In every sense of the word. The game with Whitman was a very clean one, and the officials, Mr. Villa and Mr. Hill, were absolutely Impartial. I think Whitman has the best team of the lot, but Pullman will give her a hard game on Thanksgiv ing day. "The trouble with our team lies in the fact that we have so many inexperienced players. Just think of It only three mem bers of the 1900 team are on the 'varsity now, and the eleven averages only 155 pounds to the man. ' Coach Smith de-" serves great credit for the work he has done, as the prospects' were most discour aging when he arrived. We shall return to Eugene at once and get Into shape for the big Thanksgiving game with Multno mah, and we will make a much better showing than most people Imagine." It is quite likely that the University of Oregon will meet the winning team of the Eastern Washington-Idaho league next year, and the game will be played on Oregon solL As only three of the Eu gene players are In the graduating class, there will be a good many experienced men on the eleven next season. A strong effort will be made to Induce Coach Smith to return, as he is one of the best foot ball trainers that Oregon ever had. THE KICKER'S GAME. Institute Tenm to Play Football "With Sailors.

About 50 sports witnessed a glove con test between Charles Jost and Arthur Fountain last night before the Alblna Athletic Club. The fight lasted only three rounds. Fountain receiving the short end of the puree. Fountain, though said to be from Seattle, looked from the way he fought to have just been picked off the city streets. All Fountain could do was to stand for three rounds, and let Jost hit him re peatedly on the nose and Jaw, though he occasionally would make a right swing which would either cut the wind or be blocked. In the third round the colored man was finished, when Jost landed hie right on the point of the' jaw. Fountain took the count and was carried to his corner in a dazed condition. An interesting ten-round preliminary was fought between Eddie Murphy and "Kid" Murray, Murphy receiving the decision. FIGHT WILL TAKE PLACE. San Francisco Ministers Tried to Induce Authorities to Interfere. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14. With the Jeffries-Ruhlln championship battle but 24 hours away, public interest is keyed up to the highest pitch, and the sounding of the gong that will bring the Los An geles bollermaker and the Akron giant together Is awaited, In feverish anxiety. All day long enthusiasts have been flock lng Into the city from various points, re mote and otherwise, and the sale of tCe choice seats has already run Its length. It Is evident at this time that fully 10,000 persons will witness the big event. A group of ministers of the gospel have been striving all day to induce the au thorities to interfere and stop the mill, but they have received no encouragement. Tonight they paid their respects to Mayor James D. Phelan, and there received the same Information which was imparted to them by District Attorney Bylngton and Chief of Detectives Seymour. In other words, they have been apprised of the fact that while a state law prohibits prize fighting, a local ordinance countenances boxing exhibitions, held under the auspices of an incorporated club, and that the latter measure precludes, all pos sibility of the city fathers stopping tne fight at this Juncture. The police, if they believe the mill to be brutal, and, there fore, beyond the point of a legitimate exhibition with gloves, may enter the ring and stop the bout after It starts, but not before. Gus Ruhlln spent a day of inactivity and quiet speculation. Jeffries was a trifle more active, but his exertions were pro voked by demands upon him by admiring friends. The training ordeal is at an end and the trainers of both fighters ar anxious now simply to keep their mn from getting a trifle" stale or posslbiv mentally depressed. Jeffries Is full of life and smilingly declares that he will beat Ruhlln along about the 10th or 12th round. But few bets have changed hands to day, and in all known Instances Jeffries wa3 on the long end and riding at even better odds than yesterday. THE DAY'S RACES. Races nt Oakland. 4SAN FRANCISCO.

Steel Trust Needs No Protection and Should Have None. Chicago Record-Herald. Some of the organs of monopoly havt. read Congressman Babcock out of tho Republican party, cast him forth "like an abominable branch, as the nlment of those that are slain, as a carcass trodden under foot," and In the fierce joy of their Imaginary omnipotence have failed to see that they were contending not against this man alone, but acalnst resistless facts and a resistless public opinion. If Babcock should disappear from the con test Immediately the American people would not consent any longer to load the richest of corporations with charitable gifts. A tariff such as that on steel Is simply Indefensible. It falls clearly within the inhibition Implied in a description 'by the Congressman which may be addpted as a very good guide for the first htepa in tariff reform. "When any article," he says, "can be manufactured In the Unltea States cheaper than anywhere else and Is an article of export, the duty produces no revenue and affords no protection, but simply enables those who secure control to make such prices as they eee fit In th domestic market up to a point where It can be Imported." People who believe In a tariff for revenue with Incidental protec tion and those who believe in a tariff for protect jn with Incidental revenue have a common interest in opposing a tariff ot this sort, which resolves Itself simply Into a tariff for squeezing this public. Some details about steel enforce the general principle. The Congressman de clares, referring to facts easily ascertaln able( that steel billets can be produced In this country cheaper than anywhere else In the world. .Naturally we do not Im port steel billets when the advantage in cheapness of manufacture is supplemented with a heavy customs tax. Neither do we Import steel plates or steel rails. But we export steel In enormous quantities anil underbid foreign competition In every land. When the Congressman was In Bel fast a concern there ordered 20,000 tons from the United States and saved ?5 a ton on the order. And yet, he exclaims, the trust "yells for protection," demands a permanent duty of 58 a ton against peoplf whom It can undersell in a free market by 55. The president of tho combine has of fered the weak apology that the grand "rake-off" here was what enabled his mills to break prices abroad, but Ameri cans will hardly yearn to pay premiums in the interest of foreign buyers, and there is still the fact to consider that the cost of production 19 lowest in this coun try, a fact which does not hitch as well as it might with the apology. Mr. Schwab was talking for publication and not for instruction and edification. He was blink ing the truth which Is going to bring about tariff revision as sure as there is such a thing as popular suffrage. Siberia Road Not Yet Completed. NEW YORK, Nov. 14.

IN SOUTHERN BULGARIA MISS STONE AND HER COMPANION SAID TO BE LOCATED. Spencer Eddy Protests Against Ob stacles Being Placed In the Way of Mr. Dickinson. SOFIA, Bulgaria, Nov. 14. Miss Ellen M. Stone and Mme. Tsllka, the captives of the brigands, are now said to be occupy ing a hut In a village of Southern Bul garia, to which they are closely confined.

Petks Karavelc off, the Prime Minister of Bulgaria, has just been Interviewed by the Sofia corre spondent of the Journal and Advertiser. Said the Prime Minister: "For humanitarian reasons, the Minis ter of the Interior has undertaken to tol erate fresh intercourse between the bri gands and an American agent. It Is a bad precedent to recognize the brigands, however indirectly, but we wish to stretch a point for America and the cause of humanity. The brigands, wherever thpy are, can now treat unmolested with the American Republic and safe conduct will be given to any man or men recommended by Mr. Dickinson. "There Is no brigandage in Bulgarii. Turkey is the cause of the brigandage, i pillage, murder and massacre In Mace donia. Conditions there are Intolerable. , "Europe has been In a vicious circle re garding Macedonia since the Berlin treaty; all the powers agree that Mace donia should have autonomy, but none Is willing to move In the matter. Count Andrassy, of Austria, was more to blame than Lord Beaconsfleld at the Berlin con ference for the present condition of Mace donia, which Is crying to heaven for ven geance. France patches up her quarrel with Turkey, oblivious of liberty, equality and fraternity for Macedonia; Europeans themselves may break the vicious circle and break Turkey's cruel boast, 'We took you by the sword: by the sword we shall hold you.' All we ask for Macedonia Is autonomy. We do not seek annexation. "If the American people knew the kind of hellish barbarities perpetrated by Tur key In Macedonia, the voice of the Nation which freed Cuba and fought the most chivalrous and unselfish war of modern times would awaken the Cabinets of Eu rope to a sense or their duty regarding Macedonia." In conclusion the Premier said that he wished the United States would establish Consulates nt Sofia, Varna and Phllllpno polls, particularly as Bulgaria is entirely agricultural, and needs American agricul tural Implements. Spencer Eddj'n Protest. CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov. 14.
