THE HARVARD-YALE GAMES.
Cambridge Won Easily in the Field
and Traclc Events.
CAMBRIDGE. Mass.. May 12. Harvard
athletes upheld well tho position of the
college today In the dual games with Tale,
winning so easily that the final result
stood C2 against Tale's 41 points. Boal
broke the record in the hammer throwing
bj 14 feet, his best throw being 144 feet 2
Inches.
The track at Soldier's Field was used
today for the first time. It is not as fast
as the old track on Holmes' Field, but It
was at its best this afternoon. On ac
count of the strong wind "blowing down
the stralght-away course, the Judges de
cided to run all the events which did
not use the circular track in the opposite
direction from usual, so that the athletes
could run wth the wind, and not against
it. Johnson, of Yale, cleared 11 feet In the
pole vault, twice In succession, but each
time knocked the bar off with his hands.
His vault of 10 feet 8 inches is, how
ever, a record. Every trial In the 100
yard dash was run In record time 10 1-5
seconds Richards, of Yale, winning the
final heat In that time. In the two-mile
run, not a single Yale man was able to
finish. Richardson beat Footo out by
about three feet in the fast time of
9:57 3-5. This is a new record, as the

McCoy- on the Fight.
NEW YORK. May 12. "Kid" McCoy
summarized the Jeffrles-Corbett fight as
follows:
"Jim Corbett lost in his battle with
Jim Jeffries last night, but ho made a
magnificent struggle, leading all the "way,
until he was suddenly dropped with a left
uppercut on the jaw, after two minutes
and 11 seconds of fighting in the 23d round.
He showed that he was just as speedy
and as clever as ever, and he made a
show of Jeffries right up to the last two
rounds. He was fighting the big fellow
carefully, and made him look like a nov
ice for an hour and 20 minutes. What
beat him was Jeffries' youth and strength
and heavier weight."

CHICAGO' LABOR TROUBLE.
First Practical Step Toward Its Set
tlement. CHICAGO, May 12. A conference which
is regarded as the first practical step
toward settlement of the labor war was
held last evening between the attorneys
for the Building Contractors' Council and
representatives of the unions Involved In
the. tie-up in the building industry. Though
thametng was Informal and prelimi
nary, If was not without results. Men
IJartlolpatlng In It expressed the opinion
that It had smoothed the way for nego
tiations that would effect a hasty termina
tion of the strife.
Tho meeting was held behind closed
doors. The union men present were E.
A. Davis, for tha Hoisting Engineers;
George W. Geary, for the Bridge and
Structural Ironworkers; William Martin,
for the Stationary Engineers; Luke Grant,
for hte Carpenters: Gus Hoyt, for the Plas
terers, and Thomas Lynch, for the Archi
tectural Ironworkers. Attorney Knight,
representing the Building Contractors'
Council, informed the ktbor men that the
contractors were willing- to confer with
the representatives of the Individual
unions, and arrange for a settlement of
the trQublo regardless of the Building
Trades Council, the final terms of the set
tlement with regard to the Building
Trades Council to be determined after
ward. The only stipulation was that the par
ties to the conference should not be pres
ent as representatives of the central la
bor organization. More conferences are
to be held soon. If the sentiment for
mutual conciliation continues, it may be
expected that as a reeult of the peace ne
gotiations joint arbitration committees of
the bosses and their locked-out workmen
will be called together and will effect an
understanding which will make the labor
war a thing of history.
Meanwhile Mayor Harrison Is bent on
making another effort toward bringing the
labor war to a close. His new plan
to bring the contesting sides together con
templates ignoring the Building Trades
Council and the Building Contractors'
Council for a time.

WEEK- IN THE REICHS1AQ
PASSAGE OF: AFRICAN STEAMER
BILL OF INTEREST TO AMERICANS.
Another Effort to Be Made to Pass
the Lex Heinze Senator Lodce's
Speech.
BERLIN, May 12. This week's pro
ceedings in' the Reichstag were rather,
tame, but the passage of the African
steamer bill is of interest to Americano,
Inasmuch as the government declared Its
willingness to insert 'into the contracts
with this eabventloned line the same par
agraph that Is already In the North Ger
man Lloyd's contract, forbidding their
steamers from landing agricultural pro-
ducts competing with German products at
German ports. The fact that a provision
exists in tho Lloyd contracts for German
mails was brought out clearly, because tha
Agrarian leader, Cretel, without contradic
tion, thanked the Imperial Chancellor,
Count von Hohenlohe, for the prol0.
Howoyer, practically the effect of the pro
viso Is likely to be nil, because American
agricultural products cannot bear the high
"freight charges of fast steamers.
The Centrist party of the Reichstag will
make another effort to pass the so-called
MAJOR-GENERAL
1 I
THE. BRITISH GENERAL "WHO FORCED THE PASSAGES OF TIIE VET
AND ZAND RIVERS AND CLEARED THEVAY FOR LORD
ROBERTS' ADVANCE TO KROONSTAD.
"Lex Heinze," which places a number of
onerous restraints upon literature and art
du&plto tho known disapproval of the Em
peror. The Centrists, with tho Conserva
tives, Intend that the bill shall be put on
Its final .passage before the Summer ad
journment. The opposition will again use
obstruction, and if tho bill is passed, tho
Bundcsrath will reject K.
The German Liberal press is greatly
wrought up because the Bavarian Gov
ernment extradited the Austrian editor,
Kordon, under an obsolete resolution of
tho former German Federation of 1S54.
Kordon belongs In the Tyrol, where -a
court sentenced him to six weeks In Jnll
for criticising the Catholic churoh. The
Vosslsche Zeitung recommends that such
conditions be obliterated by Bundeeratb
and Reichstag legislation.
The curious idea has fastened on a largo
part of tho Liberal press that certain
Liberals show an effuslvo willingness to
pass any bills for military or naval pur
poses if the Emperor will abandon his
prejudice against the Liberate and sum
mon their leaders to Cabinet positions and
the like. Tho Tageblatt leads In exploit
ing this notion, while the whole Conserva
tive and Centrist press, representing tho
government majority, rldlculo tho move
ment. Tho semi-official Post today speaks
of It as "Liberal Bysantlnism." However,
it is quite certain the Emporor has been
powerfully impressed by tho naval enthu
siasm on the part of the Liberals, In
cluding tho financial circles.
The Kreuz Zeitung, In an inspired -article,
discussed the Boer mission to Amer
ica, saying It considers Amer'can Inter
vention probable, and advises England
to accept Jt and finish the, war If Eng
land wishes to retain American friend
ship. Lleutenont-General Breher, in the Lo
kal Anzeiger, reviews recont movements
in South Africa, and concludes that the
Boers will continue to avoid decisive bat
tles, but will inflict great damage upon
moving British columns.
The Turko-American Imbroglio Is un
favorably criticised Jiere, tho German
press holding that the object la too In
significant and also that the United
States is ungrateful, because It was due
to the Sultan's counsel that the Moros
of the Sulu archipelago did not Join the
Insurgent Filipinos.
The torpedo flotilla has reached Blngen,
whore the officers were feted today. Tho
Grand Duke of Hesse has notified Com
mander Funke that Monday he will pro
ceed on board the flagboat to Mayence,
whero there will be a series of fetes. The
prces recognizes that this flotilla is im
mensely popularizing the navy. The Em
peror has forbidden all German officers to
participate in the Auteull and all other
French races. The German sporting pre?3
approves this action, because French chnu
venists would have made unpleasant, dem
onstrations, possibly leading to interna
tional complications.
A high person In the Foreign Office,
speaking with the correspondent of tho
Associated Press regarding the speech of
Mr. Lodge in the United States Senate
yesterday, sajd telegrams exchanged be
tween the Emperor and PresJdijnt Cam
pos Salles show that the relations between
Brazil and Germany are of the mpst cor
dial character. Brazil, this official added,
apprehends no danger. "If Brazil is not
threatened by greater dangers than those
that menace her from Germany." the
official continued. "Brazilians may be
quite unconcerned for the future."
The Vosslsche Zeitung is the onlv even
ing paper which comments on Senator
Lodge's speech. This paper says:
"Senator Lodge's words leave no doubt
that they were aimed at Germany. One
must doubt the cood will and political
Intelligence of American statesmen when
one of tho most respected of them still
believes the fairy tale of tbe exchange of
the North Schleswig for the perfectly
worthless Danish Antilles, and tha fool
ish babble about founding independent
colonics in Southern Brazil. Do not let
Americans believe they can gain the sym
pathies of the world through suoh rodo-'
montades. With such thoughtless speeches
they can only still further discredit ,their
present life and the forms In which this
is embodied."
A MURDEROUS ATHLETE.
Killed a Batcher, Shot His "Wife,
and Committed Saicide.
BUTTE. Mont., May 12. Charles Paus
tlen, aged about 30 years, e blacksmith
helper, football player and well-known
athlete, this afternoon shot and killed
Alexander Tate, manager of a, butchering
concern( shot And seriously wounded Mrs.
Tate, and when the police went to find
him he was lying dead In his room with
a pistol wound la his head, having com
mitted suicide. Pausteln was married at
Vancouver ihree years ago. His wife sued
for a divorce on the ground of cruelty.
This afternoon the decree was granted.
Within a few hours, Pausteln armed him
self with a revolver and started for the
home of the Tatcs, about two miles south
of town, and about a mile beyond the
slaughtering-house with which Tate was
connected.
The Tates bad been In town, and when
they drove up to their home In their
buggy, Pausteln was waiting for them.
As .they alighted Pausteln walked up to
them, and exclaiming, "You arc Tesponsi
ble for the separation of me and my wife,"
began firing. Tho first shot struck Tate
in the forehead and he fell dead. The
next struck Mrs. Tate In the hand. The
third hit her in the head, but glanced
E. H. T. HUTTON.
and did not petetrate the brain. She fell
unconscious, and Pausteln. thinking he
had killed her also, started for town. A
boy coming along helped Mrs. Tate into
the buggy and drove her to the slaughter
house, from which place the alarm was
given.
The police started out to find the mur
derer. The first place they went was to
hl3 room in the Steele Block, where he
had been living since separating from
his wife. The door was forced. On the
bed lay the bod7 of Pausteln. There was
a bullet-hole through the Tight temple,
and alongside the body lay a revolver.
The Tates. so far as can be learned, had
nothing to do with the family troubles of
the Paustelns, except that Mrs. Pausteln
and Mrs. Tate had been neighbors and
friends.
MARTINELLI INTERVIEWED.
Detrimental Features of Modern Civ
ilization. OMAHA. Neb.. May 12. Archbishop
Martinelll, en route to Portland, stopped
over hero and will resume his journey
tomorrow. The apostolic delegate will
confer the, pallium upon Archbishop
Christie May 17. Speaking of the church
and tho Philippines, he said:
"While the advent of authority from a
free country would perhaps facilitate mis
sionary work in tho Islands, yet modern
civilization has Its detrimental features
In matters of religion."
The archbishop denied the report that
priests of South America and Australia
would be allowed to marry, also that the
church had put. a ban upon the Modern
Woodmen, a secret society.
He AsUed to Be Hanged.
CHICAGO, May 12. "I plead guilty,
and I want to be hanged," announced
Lawrence E. Walsh, when he was ar
raigned before Judge Baker charged with
the murder of Robert W. Gilchrist. "This
is a capital case and I want capital pun
ishment inflicted. I killed that man, and
therefore I am guilty."
"Take him back J.o Jail," said Judge
Baker.
Walsh is believed to be mentally unbal
anced. Judge Baker sent for Assistant
State's Attorney McEwan. and It was de

for a few days. It Is likely the court
will enter a plea of not guilty for the
defendant and that Walsh will bo tried
as to his sanity.
On the morning of March 21, Walsh shot
and killed Robert W. Gilchrist, a bar
ber, at 1764 West Twenty-second street,
without cause or provocation. It Is said.
Some years ago Walsh fell and Injured
his head severely. He was 111 for several
weeks, but apparently recovered. During
the Spanish-American War he enlisted
and went to Cuba. He was 111 with fever
there and returned home. It was no
ticed by his friends that his mental con
dition was impaired.

We will have commercial Interests In.
every country, and we must be ready, as
wo will be willing, to safeguard our In
terests In all parts of tho world."
In conclusion, Spooner argued that In
asmuch as "the country Is defenseless and
at the mercy of two armor companies," the
United States ought to erect Its own
armor plant without delay." The present
Eituation. he declared, was Intolerable.
In closing the debate. Hale, In charge of
the bill, said:
"I don't believe that a great need or
necessity for an- Increase of the 'Navy
stalks before us because of any appre
hension of hostilities, either now or In
the future, with the Empire of Germany.
That great country Is tied to us by in
dissoluble bonds in tho name of IO.OOQ.000
people of German extraction, who today
make some of our best citizens. I have
no fear that any danger awaits us from
German Intervention, but we do need a re
spectable Navy of the best .ships In tha
world, and with the vale of waters be
tween us and Europe nobody need fear
that any nation Is likely to trouble ua."
The amendments offered by Penrose to
pay $343 tor the armor for the Maine, Ohio
and Missouri was defeated.
Armor-Prate Amendment Lost.
Pettus (Dem. Ala.) offered an amend
ment making It mandatory upon the Sec
retary of the Navy to erect an armor
plate plant at once at a cost not to ex
ceeed J4.000.COO The amendment was de
feated, 22 to 24, as follows:

Tillman's amendment striking out the
committee's proposition to pay $445 per
ton for armor, fixing the maximum price
at $300 per ton, except for armor for the
battle-ships Maine, Missouri and Ohio,
for which $345 was to be paid, and making
it mandatory upon the Secretary of the
Navy to construct an armor-plate plant
was defeated, 22 to 24, the vote In no re
spect differing from the vote on' Pettus
amendment. a '
Tillman then offe.'ed his amendment
three times, each time raising slightly tho
limit of tho cost of the armor. Each time
the amendment was defeated.
An effort was made by those opposed
to the committee to prevent Its propo
sition from coming to a vote. Hale
made an appeal to the Senate that It
should stand by the unanimous agreement
to vote finally upon the armor-plate ques
tion at today's session.
Chandler offered an amendment pre
cisely similar to those proposed by Till
man. The vote on the amendment Indi
cated the absence of a quorum, tho vote
being 17 ayes to 23 noes. A call of the
Senate was demanded, and a quorum was
developed. A vote on Chandler's amend
ment was taken, again resulting aye3 17,
noes 22 not a quorum.
"It Is evident, said Hale, "that wo can
not dispose of this question today. We
are at the mercy of the minority."
On his motion, the Senate then, at 4:15
P. M., adjourned.

ate by the appointment of the Governor
has left quite a number of sore spots.
It has already been stated that a num
ber of Senators felt very much ag
grieved over the action of Senator Hanna,
and that ho and tho Administration had
been blamed for tho defeat of the Penn
sylvanlan. It is no doubt truo that if
tho vote had been taken two or three
weeks earlier Quay would have been seat
ed. The defection of such men as Hanna
and Kean resulted In Quay's defeat be
yond all question. It lfl quite apparent,
however, that a great many Senators felt
that It Quay were seated It would
causo severe criticism, because, notwith
standing tho apparent popularity of Quay
in his own state, there are a great many
people outside who did not believe that he
was all that bis own people claimed for
him. An Interesting fact Is that Quay's
personal popularity seemed to carry more
votes than tha Constitutional question.
At least eight Senators voted for Quay
almost wholly on personal grounds, and
tho men who had the greatest regret at
his defeat are those who had served with
him In some of the interesting close cam
paigns of the past. Among the Senators
who have, as members of the National
committee, had political affiliations with
Quay for a great many years were Scott,
of West Virginia: Carter, of Montana;
Hansbrough, of North Dakota; Shoup. of
Idaho, and Piatt, of New York. All of
these have a distinct personal loss In
Quay's defeat. Ever since this present
cession of the Senate convened the name
of Quay has been retained upon the desk
that he occupied up- to the 4th of March,
ISM. For the meet of the time this desk
was occupied by his colleague. Penrose,
who had a seat assigned him on the back
row, with his name upon It. When any
body went to Inquire whether the Quay
seat had been taken, it was found that
Piatt, of New York, had filed upon it. At
the eame rime, Platt.retained the seat ho
had always held, and Quay's uamo re
mained. The next morning after the vote
a glance at the desk showed that Piatt's
name had eupplanted that of Quay, and
Penrose's had taken tho place of Platl's
on the other desk.
Corbett and Q.nay.
Of course, It was impossible to keep the
Corbett case out of the discussion of the
Quay case, and in every similar case that
comes up In tho Senate where a Governor
attempts to make an appointment in the
event of the Legislature falling to elect,
the Mantle case and the Corbett case and
the Quay case will be referred to as pre-
cedents, the same as the Kensey Johns
case has been In all the questions of this
character coming before the Senate. An
Interesting feature of the references to
the Corbett case Is- the fact that after one
attempt to cast aspersions on the char
acter of Senator Corbett, every effort in
this direction was abandoned. When Sen
ator Carter, of Montana, a man who had
served on the National committee, allowed
his personal friendship for Quay to lead
him Into some extravagant remarks re
garding the political situation In Pennsj I
vanla and Oregon, and made some reflec
tions on Mr. Corbett, and Senator Simon
challenged the statements In. a ringing
speech, it was made plain to the Senate
that the attacks on Mr, Corbett would be
resented in a most emphatic manner, and
that Senators making them would "be
"called to account. The result of Senator
Simon's reply to Cai$er and his defense.
of Mr. Corbett was that in all subse
quent discussion of the case reference to
Mr. Corbett was most respectful, and no
man sought to cast aspersions upon the
appointee of Governor Lord. Some Sena
tors Intimated that "they were informed"
that Mr. Corbett was responsible for the
Legislative hold-up, Tiut they were very
careful to say that "they were Informed."
None of them, after the reply of Senator
Simon, made any direct charge that Mr.
Corbett was in any way responsible for
the failure to elect.

NERVOUSNESS OF WOMEN
What Peruna Has Done for a Bril

MISS JULIA
In ,a recent letter, to .The Peruna Medi
cine Co., Miss Julia Marlowe, of New
-York City, has the following to say of
Peruna:
" I am glad to write my eh.

Nervousness Is very common among
women. This condition Is due to anemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are the
reservoirs of nervous vitality. These
centers become bloodless for want of
proper nutrition. Thl3 Is especially truo
in the Spring season. Every Spring a
host of Invalids are produced as the di
rect result of weak nerves.
This could be easily obviated by the use
of Peruna. Feruna strikes at the root
of the difficulty by correcting the dlges-
gard that a number of Senators who pro
posed to make speeches on the subject,
men who are very much attached to Quay
personally, who voted against Mr. Cor
bett. when they were going to" talk gen
erally consulted with Senator Simon on
the subject and asked him his opinion ol

with the old hold-up which resulted in
the failure of the Legislature to organize.
A notable Instance of this was- the tain
of Senator Stewart. Stewart, pf course, is
a peculiar Individual. No man is now
a member of tho Senate who was a mem
ber of It when ho first took the oath,
back In 1S64. as one of the first Senators
from Nevada. He was out 12 3 ears, but
Is now a Senator, He has been one of
the most cantankerous men on the silver
proposition known. It was natural that
when the Mantle case was up he
should support the theory that the Gov
ernor had the right to appoint. Mantle,
of Montana; Allen, of Washington, and
Beckwlth. of Wyoming, would have voted
for silver on every proposition, had they
been admitted. None of them were ad
mitted, the Mantle case settling the other
two. Corbett was a gold man, and natur
ally Stewart was against him. On per
sonal considerations, and the fact jthat,
no matter who should be elected In Penn
sylvania, he would be a gold man, Stewart
was, of course, for Quay. When he made
his speech ho had a little talk with Sen
ator Simon before making any reference
to the Corbett case, and it was observed
that his talk on tnat subject (was very
mild. He explained his vote on the
ground that ho "thought" so and so, and
made no direct assertions.
Simon's Influence Growing.
It is evident that since the position that
Senator Simon took on the Corbett case,
and his knowledge of the many complicated
questions coming before the committee
on judiciary, of which ho Is a member,
ho has been coming to the front
Jn the Senate as a man of more Import
ance than first report credited him with.
In fact, it is not to be denied that the
personal popularity of John H. Mitchell
In the Senate and the part which Senator
Simon was said to ha-ve taken In defeat
ing him for re-election tended to make
Mr. Simon somewhat unpopular among a
largo class of men in the Senate, this,
It can be said, is disappearing, and the
manner In which Senator' Simon -attends
to business and performsthe duties which
are designed to him Is giving him a place
which any man of good attainments can
acquire In the Senate. Of course,' some
men never can get to be particularly
prominent In affairs, and others may for
a short time become personally popular,
but ability In the end will count, and the
Senate Is. generally willing to recognize
able lawyers after they have had an op
portunity to tost their abilities.

Dubious Chance at Cape Nome.
Tho New York Engineering and Mining
Journal gives the following warning
against the much-boomed Cape Nome gold
fields: "It looks very much as If some of
the schemes for mining the shore deposits
of the Nome district in Alaska are bein?
prepared without counting the cost, and
with very little knowledge of the true
conditions. A good deal Is aald of the
probable returns to be obtained by mining
beyond the low-water mark, and we hear
of some dredging outfits which are to be
prepared for use -during the coming sea
son. Now, dredging for gold is not alto
gether as simple an operation In practice
anywhere as It Is on paper; and at Nome
it is going to foe very risky work. To try
to operate a- dredge in shallow water, on
a sloping beach, where there Is always a
heavy swell, and where there Is no pro
tection whatever from frequent and vlo- J
lent storms, is not merely a difficult mat-J
tor; a wrecK is only a question of time,
and probably a very short time. To work
by sinking shafts and running tunnels out
under tho oeean bed Is-likely to be a cost
ly and difficult task. The building of
coffer dams and caissons which will
stand against the waves will also- be cost
ly. Altogether the -problem or working
these shore deposits Is not an easy one,
and it Is by no means certain, whether,
gold will be found in quantities whleh
will pay for the risks to be incurred. Peo
ple should hestitate and investigate care
fully before going into any of the schemes,
or undertaking to transport heavy ma
chinery to Nome."
