It was soon after the visit that Mr. Newton's lawyers announced they were satisfied that the claim would be settled. Considerable interest was aroused to day by a statement credited to a Cleve land attorney to the effect that Mrs. Chadwlck lost large sums of money through bucket-shops. Another statement made In connection with the case today was that a number of years ago Mrs. Chadwlck borrowed from Mrs. Schenley, the English woman who died several years ago possessed of many million dollars' worth of property in Pittsburg. It is said that notes for various suras made by Mrs. Chadwlck were found among Mrs. Schenleys pa pers after her death.

ASTORIA COMES TOBAY TO MEET MULTNOMAH ELEVEN . ON GRIDIRON. Critics Say the Men Frsm ths City by the Sea Stand an Excellent Chance sf Winning ths Gams. Astoria, which is doing things in the football world this Fall, will be here thk afternoon at 3 o'clock to play a game with Multnomah. It is not known what Astoria Is going to do, but the city by ths storm-blown jetty thinks Its champions will lick Multnomah by about one touch down. A comparison of previous scores will make out Astoria to be much stronger than Oregon and something to the better of the club players. Oregon defeated Al bany 4 to 0 some time since. Astoria took the same college into camp a little while later with 21 to 0. Multnomah a wek af terward scored but IS to 0. Albany, it will be remembered. Is not an. easy thing. Its players are hard as nails and play football all the way through the game. So when Astoria lines up today it Is go ing In to win, and Multnomah has trouble In store. It would not be safe, however, to prophesy that Multnomah was going to get licked. There have been a few changes in the Multnomah line-up. Seeley will be-oat of It and Van Voorhees or SInnott will play right guard. Grieve or Rintoul will be at center. KIrkley Is doubtful, and Griffith, an acquisition from Albany, may take his place. Murphy will probably be super seded at quarter by Johnson. And Loner gan, who played fullback In the Oregon game, will be In his old-time position at right half. That Is where he made his fame at Notre Dame, and If he follows up his work of Thanksgiving day well, it will tie seen that the dub never had a better man- back of the line.

Correspondence is in progress between Manager Stlmson and members of the Board of Regents, In an effort by the1 for mer to gain permission for the Oregon Agricultural College eleven to play the Christmas game of football offered by Multnomah. 'Regents Church and Cotton are absent from the state, and of the re maining 11 more than a majority Is said to have given their full consent for the game, while a few have not been heard from at all. With fine spirit, the members of the team hesitate to make final arrangements until the full and free assent of a prac tically unanimous board can be secured; and with, that end in view Manager Stlm son Is continuing the correspondence. In one or two instances regents have made their consent conditional, though none so far has expressed any objection to the game. The entire student body of the college Is extremely anxious for the team to plajt once before a Portland audience under best conditions, a privilege that the O. A. C. 'eleven has never yet enjoyed. The faculty has consented to the game, and tho question - of its materialization de volves on the Regents. SPROTT IS MADE CAPTAIN. Cheeen Unanimously to Lead Next Year's Stanford Squad.
