Oregon, 10.
Multnomah, 6.
The University of Oregon, for the
second time In Its history. tri
umphed over the Multnomah Club
men before a brilliant crowd of
fully 6500 persons yesterday afternoon
on Multnomah's classic football field.
Tet Multnomah was not without honor
even In its dofeat, for It was backed
by the cheering and band-playing of
the red and, white rooters, but the
eleven men who carried In their playing
the hope of a Mul caoraah victory,
met h foe that for sheer pluck and
dogged determination was never
excelled on the gridiron.
The crowd was not as large, nor
as enthusiastic as that Which saw last
year's memorable game, yet the lemon
yellow of the University predominated.
There were cheers and yells In plenty,
but somehow It was all woefully lack
ing. There were no blood-thrllllng
chants, no taunts flung from bursting
throats. Perhaps It was gloom of the
gray November afternoon; perhaps the
battle In each breast, of hope and fear,
was too earnest to permit vent - of
tumultous noise. -
Sextet of Oregon Stars.
Out of the maelstrom of lemon-yellow
that swayed and struggled, and
was beaten down, only to rise again
and continue the fight, the work of six
students stood out. They were Arn
eplger, Kuykendall, Moores. Zacharins,
Pinkham and Clark. Hope never died
In the breasts of these men, and the"
assaulted the clubmen's line as fear
lessly at the end of the game as they
did at the beginning. And sharing
with them In their honors In the Tl-tan-llke
struggle that went on for al
most two hours, were Btott, Walker,
McMillan, Hader, Lonergan and Pratt
for the clubmen. It was the work
of these men that made the sullen re
treat of Multnomah a thing wonderful
to look at. They fought like madmen
and the work of Walker, In spite of his
232 pounds, was startling and bril
liant at all times. Stott was deadly
In his tackles behind the line and his
speed, in spite of the sloppy field,
was something to wonder at.
Terrific Struggle at Outset.
For the first ten minutes of the game
the struggle was terrific. with both
teams fighting like demons and with
honors even. Then the undaunted courage
of the students, their training and fitness
for a gruelling battle began to tell. Mult-

clean game, but I think our training
was superior to theirs, and we won
a victory about which there can be
no question. If such a thing is pos

nomah never sent Into a football field
a stronger or better team. The club
brought Chauncey Bishop from Salem,
Klrby, who coached Willamette, George
McMillan and other stars into the
gams In 'hopes of retrieving last
year's defeat. In spite of the formid
able line-up tho clubmen were trampled
to defeat In a game, while It lacked In
spectacular plays and thrlJUng runs, more
than made up in plain, old-fashioned
football.
First Score on Place Kick.
Oregon made Its first score after 15
minutes of play. Rader kicked off and
Z&charlas carried the oval back ten yards
before he was downed. Then began the
battle that was marvelous to watch. Back
and forth the 3949 pounds of brawn and
brain fought and struggled for suprem
acy. Kor ten minutes this mighty strug
gle lasted, then the tide of battle began
to turn In favor of the students. Oregon
got the ball In Multnomah's territory and
Clark, toy a cleverly executed kick down
along Multnomah's left side line, gained
20 yards for the wearers of the lemon.
Bishop tried to get the ball and just as
his eager fingers caressed it, Coleman
tackled him and before he could gather
himself for another effort. Arnsplger
fell on the ball. Clark was sent hurtling
through the line for five yards. On the
next play Rader downed Zacharias for

a loss of a yard, then followed Moullen's
successful try for a goal from the field.
As the oval passed between the posts, a
storm of cheering rent the air.
Second Score on Touchdown.
Zacharias made the only touchdown for
Oregon, and It came after Multnomah
had lost the ball on its 20-yard line on
downs. Coleman made a brilliant end
run of 5 yards. The collegians were now
again within striking distance. A hush
fell over the gathered hosts and as the
teams lined up for action, there was a
tightening of the heart-strings. Men and
women paused with mouths agape and
they caught something of the tremendous
determination of the players themselves.
Suddenly the ball was snapped 4 Into ac
tion. There was an instant delay. Like
terriers watching for a rat, the clubmen
started forward and halted, waiting for
the play. Then there was a pell-mell
rush to protect the right end, and as the
clubmen hurled themselves to the right,
Zacharias plunged straight through the
center. Like a thunder-bolt he shot for
ward. He twisted his way past McMil
lan, past Walker. In front of him was
Lonergan. With the ball hugged to his
breast, he made as if to go straight, then
he dodged to the right and passed the
waiting tackle. Once clear, he ran over
the line and carried the ball behind the
goal posts for a touchdown. There was
a protest from Multnomah's very busy
manager, but It was not allowed, for
Zacharias was Inside the line fully two
feet when he passed Lonergan. Moullen
kicked an easy goal.
Multnomah Comes Back Strong.
This was the end of the scoring for the
students, and when the first half was
over and the whistle blew, the ball was
,in Multnomah's territori'. TJhe brief
rest and a change of play on the part
of the clubmen did wonders. They
came back for the second half full of
ginger and fight, and almost before the
Oregon rooters realized, the clubmen had
worked the ball straight towards Ore
gon's goal by plunges through the stu
dents' line. It was straight, old-fashion
line bucking that Multnomah resorted
STATEMENT OF COACH FROST.
The showing made by the Uni
versity of Oregon today clearly en
titled the boys to the victory they
won. Our light line held splendidly
against the heavy men on the Mult
nomah team, and to this fact ts due
considerable of the credit accruing
from the victory. Of course. Clark's
splendid punting was a 'handicap
which the opposing team waa unable
to cope with. but. nevertheleas, we
won the game on our merits. The
club eleven is one of the best and
most gentlemanly teams Oregon has
met this year, and one cannot speak
too kindly of their behavior and the
terrlflo struggle they put up against
the younger players of the varsity.

to. Time and again Walker, Bishop and
Lonergan were hurled against Oregon's
line and each time for substantial gains.
The onward march of the clubmen was
thrilling to behold, and the mournful
chant of "Hold m, Oregon," floated
over the field. But Oregon could not
hold them. It was like trying to check
the onward march of a tidal wave.
The players hurled themselves at each
other. They became a maddened mass
of human battering rams, and as their
bodies came together there was a
grinding, crashing thud, and then a
mass of tangled legs and arms. The
students checked the advance twice, and
they made a determined stand on their
35-yard line. Rader was forced to punt,
Clark fumbled, and Lonergan fell on
the ball.
Bishop Scores Touchdown.
Lonergan twice carried the ball for
yardage. Then Bishop was tried. He
hit the human line In front of him and
It tottered and fell apart. Through the
gap he fell headlong, rose to his knees
and once more hurled himself at the
white chalk line. A student pounced
upon him, but could not pin him fast,
and he wiggled and twisted and rolled
over the line. Rader tried for the goal
and failed.
Multnomah's sudden brace seemed to
have died with the failure of the goal.
After that the pendulum of the battle
ever swung in favor of the students.
Twice after the touchdown the students
held the clubmen for downs and because
of the exceptionally fine punting of Clark
the ball was continually In Multnomah's
territory. In this department of the game
Clark's work has never been duplicated
on Multnomah field. When It came to an
exchange of punts, Rader was outbooted
ten yards and sometimes more. Clark's
punts averaged 34 yards, while those of
Rader averaged 24 yards. Rader's
failure to gain ground was not al
together his fault, for he was sadly hand
icapped by wretched passing. Time after
time Rader was forced to pick the ball
from the ground where It dribbled after
bet ng snapped baok. Thon too. he was
never given much tlmo to sot himself,
for an Oregon student was on top of
him almost before he oould kick.

DIRECTORS ARE DECEIVED
Irregular Notes Withheld and Re

sale Mutilation of Records
of Borough Bank.
NEJW TORK, Nov. 28. (Special.) Full
particulars of the remarkable manner in
which officers of the Borough Bank con
ducted the affairs of that Institution be
came known today, when the directors
gave out a statement containing the con
fessions of Howard Maxwell, ex-president,
who killed himself Tuesday while
out on .ball; Arthur D. Campbell, ex
cashler, who Is now out on ball, and
Frank W. Doolittle. private secretary to
William F. Gow. It took nearly three
weeks of day and night work by the di
rectors to get complete knowledge of all
Irregularities and misdoings.
Campbell was the first to break down
and confess. He declared that about two
years ago there was a loss of $10,000 on
three European drafts bought by Max
well and Campbell from one Plnkney
Melville, who has never been found. To
cover up this loss, he obtained a number
of notes signed by E. F. Shutter In blank
and subsequently filled in by Campbell.
Clerks' and Fictitious Names Used.
Two Ralph Maynard notes, aggregat
ing $3000, compi-iwed a loan made in
the name of a depositor, and in order
to cover up this transaction Campbell
procured two notes , from William Wills,
a friend of his and Maxwell's, both of
which were signed by Mayilard, one of
his clerks. There were also three notes
of A. R. Robertson & Co. for about $5000.
which were discounted at the Borough
Bank. When the Borough Bank closed
it was found that one of the depositors
was the same Wills with an apparent
balance of $1500, but upon Investigation
it was found that, though he had orig
inally had a regular account, the actual
money deposited by Wills had been with
drawn long before.
Campbell broke down completely when
admitting that he forged both the

sidy note, endorsed "Stewart," for $2140,
which was needed to cover up a loss on
speculations suggested by Jenkins, and
which Gow promised to stand for.
The paying of interest on these fictitious
notes was managed very cleverly. The
notes were made for an amount In ex
cess of the margin required, and the dif
ference used to pay Interest on renewals.
How Directors Ver3 Fooled.
Campbell explained the manner In
which they were able to blind the di
rectors as to what was going on by red
ing off at the meeting the legitimate
notes and hiding the Irregular notes, for
which a private book was kept away
from the bank, so as to prevent any for
getfulness from bringing their operations
to the front.
Loans In fictitious names were made
from time to time as they were required
to put up margins on stock transactions.
That a note signed by Senator Patrick
McCarren for $13,000 has disappeared since
the closing of the bank is the latest dis
covery of the Investigators. The note

the receivers took charge. All checks
drawn on the bank on its last day of
business have also disappeared. The In

eral pages of the latter have been torn
out. Two and three pages at a time have
been ripped out and the book is mutilated
practically beyond deciphering the mys

CRISIS ENDED IN
MONEY
MARKET
Cortelyou Stops Sale

WILL ONLY ISSUE $35,000,000
Now Preparing to Retire Them
Next Spring.
GUARD AGAINST INFLATION
Glut of Money in Banks Expected to
Follow Crisis Will Reduce Gov
ernment Deposits and Cur
rency in Circulation.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28. The an
nouncement by Secretary Cortelyou last
night that further subscriptions to the
one-year Treasury certificates would not
be received. Is regarded here as Indicat
ing that the Secretary considers that the
crisis in the money market to be practi
cally over. Official figures have not been
given out at the Treasury of the amount
of the certificates allotted nor has It
been stated whether further allotments
would be made for subscriptions already
received. Tho amount of the allotment
made, however, is said to be about $35,
000,000 and this is probably the limit un
less strong reasons are presented from
banks which have already made sub
scriptions why allotments should be
made to them. All Individual subscrip
tions having been rejected, it is antici
pated that nearly the whole of the $35.
O00.OQO allotted will be used to secure
new issues of bank notes. As these is
sues will be retired within less than a
year, they will not constitute a perma
net inflation of the bank note circula
tion. Increase in Treasury Balance.
The effect, of the new itfann upon the
future ol' t5ae Treasury resources and
the money market la already receiving
attention at the Treasury and In banking
circles. From present sources tha
amount nominally added to the cash bal
ance of the Treasury will be about $85.
000,000. of which $60,000,000 will represent
the 2 per cent Panama bonds and $35,
000,000 will represent the one-year cer
tificates which have been allotted. This
amount would Increase the present nom
inal balance from about $241,393,217, where
It stood yesterday, to a little more than
?325,000.000. A small additional amount
will be derived from the premium on
the Panama bonds, but, even if this

should average as high as 5 per cent,
it would amount to only $2,500,000.
Add $300,000,000 to Circulation.
With a nominal balance, however, of
more than $325,000,000, the Treasury will
not have anything like that amount Im
mediately available. This Is because of
deposits In National banks and other
deposit Items. These Items amounted
yesterday to $234,939,583, leaving an ac
tual working balance of $6,463,628. The
Secretary has announced that 90 per cent
of the payments for Panama bonds will
be left in the custody of the National
banks purchasing the bonds, and about
75 per cent of the payments for the one
year certificates will be left with tha
banks. The effect of these changes In
the Treasury balance sheet upon the
basts of issues of both classes of se
curities to the amount of $85,000,000 will
be to increase the amount in banks to
about $300,000,000 and the working balance
will be due to the retention in the Treas
ury of $6,000,000, or 10 per cent of the
principal of .the Panama payments, and
about $9,000,000 or 25 per cent of the
principal of $35,000,000 in treasury certifi
cates. Retire Certificates in Spring.
This condition of the Treasury finances
will be changed materially In the Spring,
if Mr. Cortelyou is able to carry out the
programme of retiring a considerable
pattlon of the one-year certificates be
fore maturity. He will have no diffi
culty In doing this and saving a consid
erable proportion of the interest to be
paid on them, if the agreements made
with banks to this effect can be carried
out under the conditions of the money
market existing In the Spring. If
$30,000,000 of the certlffcates .can be then
paid off. the cash balance' will fall to
about $21,5,000.000. deposits In .banks will
decline by three-quarters of the amount
paid off, or to $277,500,000, and the cash
balance will fall to about $15,000,000. The
loss In the cash balance will be due to
taking from the Treasury cosh 25 per
cent of the amount paid for the retire
ment of the certificates. It seems prob
able, however, that money market con
ditions will be such that the Secretary
will feel justified in .calling upon the
banks for considerably more cash than
comes to them In payment for the Treas
ury certificates which are called and
surrendered. Under these circumstances,
while the general balances will remain
the same, deposits In banks would be re
duced and the actual working balance
would be Increased.
It Is not only considered highly desir
able to reduce deposits In the banks as
soon as money market conditions per
mit, but It Is believed that there will be
little difficulty In doing so. If the
Treasury can reduce these deposits to
the neighborhood of $200,000,000 in the
course of the Spring, it will then have
at its command about $100,000,000 as a
working balance, from which deposits
could be made from time to time to aid
in the crop movement in the Autumn, If
they wsre. required.
Effect of Pantcs on Money.
The history of previous crises has
shown that money tends to accumulate
rapidly In the banks after the worst of a
crisis Is over. In 1893 the specie In Na
tional banks fell from $207,222,141 on May
4 to $186,761,173 on July 12. The worst
break In the Stock Exchange occurred
on July 26, when call money went to
75 per cent. Notwithstanding business
depression was still acute and the con
test over the Sherman act was still
raging in Congress at the beginning of
October, the relaxation of business ac
tivity led to the decline of loans on Oc
tober 8. 1893, by about $176,000,000, and
this had its logical sequence in the accu
mulation of specie In National banks to
the amount of $224,703,860, or an increase
of about $38,000,000 from the low point
shown by the bank reports. In six
weeks more, or by the statements of De
cember 19, 1893, specie in National banks
had Increased to $251,253,648, or by nearly
$65,000,000 over the low point.
The banking community deals now
with much larger aggregates, the specie

BERLIN, Nov. 18. Today's sitting of
tile Relchtg was notable for the ener
getic speech of Prince von Buelow, the
Herman Imperial Chancellor. In de
fense of the army, the Emperor and
himself. In replying to Dr. Spahr., tha
leader of the Center party, who as
serted that conditions prevailing In the
army recalled those of ancient heathen
Rome, the Chancellor rose, full of fire,
and declared that no one Imagined that
the whole army was affected by a few
Instances of un worthiness, the rooting
out of which, the Chancellor assured
the house, would be sharply attended
to by the Emperor, than whom no one
strove more for a high tone of moral
ity In both the army and the nation.
It was the Crown Prince, hs said,
who had called his father's attention
to the articles In the Zukunft disclos
ing corruption, wltn the result that
Immediate action was taken In the
matter. He pointed out that neither
the Chancellor nor the minister could
take such step without holding proofs
of their assertions.
Prince von Buelow then referred to .
the so-called court camarilla which Is
widely alleged to have Influenced the
Emperor's decisions. No one, he said,
had ever accused the Emperor of be
ing without his own will, and the
camarilla could only exist where the
monarch was willing. Such a poison
ous growth as a camarilla, he said, was
utterly un-German and reports regard
ing Its existence could be taken as be

BONEYARD AFTER 20 YEARS
German Admiralty Proposes to
Shorten Life of Xavai Vessels.
BERLIN, Nov. 2S. The general discus.
slon of the budget began In the Reich
stag today. Admiral von Tlrplz, Secre
tary of Admiralty, referring to the bill to
reduce the age limit of battleshtDS. said
that in this measure the government was
only trying to bring the quality of the
ships of the navy to the some level as
those of other countries. Germany, the
Admiral explained, has a large number
of vessels which, owing to advancement
in ipodern equipment, no longer meet the
present day requirements.
The present method of the navy Is to
retire ships every 25 years. As a matter
of actual practice, however, this period
Is really 30 years. In reducing the age
limit to 20 years, the Admiral said the
German government was acting with a
minimum of moderation as compared to
other navies.
"Nothing goes to show," the speaker
said, "that the improvement in the navy
will In the future be retarded, and we are
convinced that the ships built today will
in 25 years be as antiquated as those we
ourselves built In the 80's.

BERLIN. Nov. 28. The Lokal Anzelg

sador at Vienna, Austria, who was ac
cused by Die Zukunft of discreditable
acts In connection with the recent ex
posed scandals, has requested the State's
Attorney to bring an action against Max
imilian Harden, the editor of that Jour
nal, and against his attorney.
The Prince alleges slander In the pleas
made by Harden during the hearing of
the suit brought by General Kuno von
Moltke against Harden for alleged de
famation of character. The State's At
torney has concluded to accede to this
request.
Nasi Demands His Right.
ROME; Nov. 28. Nunlo Nasi, former
Minister of Public Instruction, charged
with having defrauded the state treasury,
has written the President of the Senate,
sitting as a court for his trial, demand
ing that he be permitted to take his seal
as a Deputy. The President of the Cham
ber proposed that Nasl's request be dls
oussed in committee, and this may mean
Its burial. In the meantime Nasi may
be given provisional liberty. The cass
will be resumed December 3.
Premier Giolotti, notwithstanding ths
Insistence of some of the Deputies, re
fused to discuss the Interrogations re
garding the Nasi trial, saying that until
it was concluded the government and the
Chamber must not Interfere in the action
of the High Court, In this he was sup
ported by Baron Sonnlnola, leader of the
opposition, the Chamber flnaiy approving
his attitude
