Saturday afternoon at Capital park the Prince- ton champion foot ball team had rather an easy time in defeating the picked team of local players by a score of 57to0. It was not as one-sided a game as the score would seem to indicate, for, considering the fact that the Washington team had never played together before, they played a surprisingly strong game. In the first half King of the home team made a run nearly the length of the field and come within a few feet of making a touch down, but when the two teams lined up near Princeton's goal line the superior strength and training of the college boys bad their effect and the ball was gradually forced back to the center of the field and was not again near the Princeton goal. Dr. Reed, who captained the picked eleven, played a great game and won round after round of applause from the audience for his sharp tackling and good interference. INTEREST IN THE GAME. There was a great crowd out to see the game and there was probably never s more stylish au- dience in Capital park. The interest that every owed in all the good plays made it evi- poner foot ball has prod, ‘@ firm foothold in this city and has come to stay. mat the Pequest of Dr. Reed Mr. 8. F. Miller, 90, president o1 the Princeton football associa- tion, acted as umpire,and Mr. Allen Wilson, "91, treasurer, referred the game. Play began at 3:30 with Washington in possession of the ball. It soon passed over to Princeton, and rushes by Ames and Channing gave them the first toueh down in less than five minutes. Ames kieked goal, score 6. From then on the Jersey boys scored at regular intervals, Channing doing a large part of the work for them. In the t half Ames kicked a beautiful goal from the field, adding five to the score. Altogether Princeton made ten touch downs, of which Channing made five, Cownan two, and Ames, Donnelly and Poe one each. From six of these Ames kicked goal, bringing the score up to 57. THE TEAMS. ‘The Washington team was made up as fol- ‘ows: King, Barnard, Harban, Reed (captain), McCoy, Church, Gleason, Leitner, Taylor, Seullin, Tobin. Princeton was represented by the following eleven men: Lilly, Casement, Thomas, Jones, Janeway, Cowan, Donnelly, Poe (captain), Channing, Ames, Lewis. CHURCH FACTIONS IN COURT. ¢he Troubles in the Second Colored Baptist Church Result in a Suit. The Second Colored Baptist church and John P. Rawle, James H. Brown, Peter Brooks and Gilbert Boyer, trustees, and Harrison B. Franey, Wm. H. Harrison, Archibald Moss, deacons, have, by Messrs, W. A. Cook and Edwin Suther- land, filed a bill against Austin Fukling, James Hester, John H. Spencer, Richard Stewart, Am- brose White. claiming to be trustees of said eburch, and W-. M. Johnson, claiming to be its minister. The bill asks fcr an injunction to re- strain defendants from interfering with the complainants in the enjoyment of the church property on 3d street between H and I streets. ‘The bili states that the defendants claim pos- session of the church property as pastor and trustees. The complainants claim to be the owners of sul lot 24, square 528, 52 by 97 feet, onwhich is erected the church edifice, with a seating capacity of 550 persons and remodeled at an expense of $3,000, and a building adjoining worth $4,000, the whole property worth $15,000; and that an insurance for 320,000 is on the property, including the furniture. In addi- dion it is set forth that the complainants own $3,800 in bonds, which, with the records, have been deposited by the clerk with the Washing- ton safe deposit company. They assert that defendants are irresponsible and the bonds and the records are in danger of being taken possession of by them. They state that the de- fendants illegally claim to be trustees; that Mr. Johnson, the pastor, had been dismissed by a resolution of the regular board of trustees, AN INJUNCTION ASKED FoR. ‘They ask that defendants be restrained from interfering with the complainants in taking possession of and opening the church for relig- ious worship according to the rules of the Bap- tist church and from enforcing the pretended expulsion of complainants or in any manner [ interfering with their rights; that defendants be enjoined from the use of the church edifice, and from allowing the defendant, Johnson, to reach or hold church meetings therein. whey ask also that defendants required to turn over the keys to them and that defendant Johnson be restrained } “from acting as a minister of the gospel or ex- pounding the word of God in said church ed- ifice and from presiding at any meetings therein,” &c. Accompanying the bill are a number of affidavits, including several filed to sustain charges against the pastor. saacmauirihesd es Transfers of Real Estate.

Fined for Reckless Driving. William Noah, colored, was before Judge Miller Saturday for reckless driving. He was driving as lumber wagon near Third and D streets Wednesday. when the vehicle collided with a street car. The pole of the vehicle went through the car window and it was very fortu- nate that none of the passengers were injured. Judge Miller told the defendant that these cases of reckless driving were of too frequent occurrence and must be stopped if the court ean stop it. The court thereupon imposed a fine of $20 or 60 days. ————— The Theaters.

Wur To Box Federation of all Workingmen Pro- posed—The Eight Hour Question. The fourth national convention of the Ameri- can federation of labor, wi now has en- rolled 4,700 trades unions and 600,000 members, meets in Boston tomorrow. It promises to be not only the largest representative gathering of real workingmen ever held in this country, but also one of the most important in its effects upon the labor movement. Under the presi- dency of Samuel Gompers, the federation of labor came rapidly into prominence as the Knights of Labor began to decline, and there seems to be a practical possibility of the Feder- ation soon comprising the great bulk of the organized laboring men of the United States in all trades. THE GENERAL PLAN is for each trade to be organized in its separate unions with its separate national body. Then each trade sends its representatives to the an- nual convention of the federation. The basis of representation to the coming convention will be one delegate for each 4,000 members of the international or national unions. Then each trades organization not connected with any national or international body will be en- titled to one delegate. In order to keep the number of delegates within manageable limits after four delegates are allowed to one union there is but one delegate allowed for each ad- ditional 16,000 members. The call sets forth the object of the convention in these words: “The trade union, the most bitterly attacked and denounced institution in the world’s his- tory, bas successfully withstood the open as- saults of capitalists and politicians, while calmly repelling the secret machinations of conspirators within the very cordon of the camp of labor. Suffice it then to say that the workers have realized that the men who are emplozed in any particular branch of industry understand the nature of it and are better qualified to adjust any difficulties which may arise with their employers than men who are unacquainted with the conditions of that busi- ness; that reckless and so-called ‘sympathetic’ strikes are disastrous in the extreme, and gen- erally result in the workmen guing back to work upon the employers’ terms; and finally, the workers are convinced that open organiza- tion is the best form of organization, and that the time has now arrived to openly, calmly and fearlessly assert the claims of labor. With these views the St. Louis convention of the American Federation of Labor resolved upon a geueral agitation for the establishment of the eight-hour work day upon May 1, 1890, and it now becomes the mission of the Boston conven- tion to transform, if in the wisdom of the dele- gates there assembled it may be deemed ad- visable, the agitation, which has become world wide, into an organized movement for its realization.” THE EIGHT-HOUR MOVEMENT. About the middle of last month, with a view of collecting accurate data as to the attitude of the various branches of trade on the eight-hour movement, President Gompers, acting for the executive council, addressed a circular to each of the executive officers of national and inter- national trade and labor unions, central labor unions, trade councils, local unions and others affiliated with the American federation of labor, propounding the following questions: “What are the hours prevailing in the trade? What action does your organization propose to take to secure the eight-hour workday, May 1, 1890? What is the financial condition of your organization? Will your organization require | the financial support of other organizations to enforce the eight-hour rule? extent?” From these inquiries it was learned that of the larger representative bodies all but one are working over eight hours. The cigar makers with 28,000 members are the only trade now claiming to have succeeded in obtaining the eight-hour concession. The brotherhood of painters and decorators, 5,500 members, are working nine hours a day and are practically willing to join the movement. The national federation of silk workers are working fifty- tive hours a week and are willing to leave the eight-hour question to their convertion which meets next January. The German-American typographical union, 1,100 members, are work- ing from nine to ten hours a day and will try to enforce the eight-hour plan. The harness and saddle makers are working fifty-nine hours aweek. Their action on the eight-hour move- ment depends upon the action of the trade. The bakers, 19,000 members. report that they are working sixty-eight and seventy hours a week. They cannot get eight hours and would enforce ten hours if possible. The boot and shoe workers are working from ten to fourteen hours a day, but have taken no action, The journeymen tailors, 9,500 members, aver- age ten hours a day and’ havo taken no action. The international sailors and firemen report that they are work- ing seventeen hours for the sailors and eight hours on and cight hours off for the firemen at sea. In port they all work thirteen hours a day. They would be content if they could get eight hours on and eight hours off all the time. The tin and sheet iron workers are working ten hours a day and willtake no action. The boiler makers, 3.500 members, are working nine and ten hoursa day and will take no action. The granite cutters, 5,000 members, are working from eight to ten hours a day. ‘They will take no action yet, and will get nino hours a day first. The united brotherhood of carpenters and joiners of America, the largest body in the federation of labor, numbering 56,240 members, report that in 452 cities they are working eight hours a day; in 169 cities nine hours, and in about 200 cities they work fifty-eight hours a week. ‘The cir- cular of the federation on the eight-hour move- ment was submitted to the vote of this organi- zation and about eight were in favor of it to one against it. Ofthe carpenters’ unions 296 reported for the circular and 24 against it. ‘This organization has #37,300 in the international fund and $120,000 in the local treasuries, and anxious for the eight-hour movement to begin. The agitation which the St. Louis convention recommended has been faithfully carried out. During the year there have been meetings held in 140 cities of this country, at which the eight hour movement has been ‘advocated, and the central body has published and widely circu- pny during the year three tracts on sub- ject so, to what OTHER SUBJECTS TO BE DISCUSSED, The eight hour question is only one of the subjects that will be discussed at the coming convention. Permanent officers are to be chosen. There will bea discussion as to the canses of idleness and crime and an effort will be made to secure a comprehensive inquiry by overnment on that subject. There will also be a discussion of the winter census, The official declaration says: “Briefly stated, the object of the American federation of labor is to render employment and the means of subsistence Laps eingpoaee by securing to the toilers an equitable share of the fruits of their toil. As means to this end it proposes—First. A free federation of all trade and labor unions in America. Second. The establishment of self-goveruing unions of wage workers in every trade and legitimate occupa- tion without exception where none now exists, Third. The formation of public opimion by the agencies of platform, press and legislation.” 00 Buffalo Gets Sullivan to Fight. The newly organized Erie athletic club has made arrangements looking to a fight with gloves between John L. Sulivan and Peter Jack- son, at some place to be selected by the club on or before the 28th day of February. Ex- Assemblyman Jules O’Brien, secretary of the club, announces that he notified Sullivan that stakes aggregating $30,000 would be piaced at the disposal of the winner, and Sullivan ac- cepted the conditions provided Jackson would do likewise. ‘Parson Davies, Jackson’s man- ager, has also been wired, but ‘a reply was not expected until his return to this country. Mr. O'brien regards the matter as practically settled. The club has three hundred members, comprising some of the richest men in the cit} —__ AUCTION SALES. _AUCTION SALES. ‘THIS AFTERNOON. a: DARR & CO. ee. nae Ce Op, MONDAY AETEENOON, DECEMBER at FOUR: will fler for sale in trout at wae the premises, bay “= ee 3 ym A ats Lor JUARE 19) Bull Bre i MM AA 8ssq fronting 17 feed by depen of BE {00 ty 8 on aw a eS a goulortable Two-story and Back CooH HR RU M MA A®xs8 | Dwelling, with rn improvements. ‘Terms: $2,000 due April 15, 18¥2, to ; bal- ance cash.
