The Centrals presented a badly patched-up team, which was unable to withstand the gocd team work of the Orients. Avis did @ good share of the pleying for the latter club, and repeatedly made splendid runs. Duffy and Lyman also played good foot ball. No one on the Central team appeared to be able to do much good work, although Jolly made a couple of creditable gains. The score in the first half was 16 to 0, and at the end of the game 40 to 0. Clark of the C. A. C. did his best to pull the High Schools together, but his efforts were unavailing, as an utter lack of team work prevailed. ‘The teams’ lined up asfollows: Orients.

Barbara Aub, acccrding to a statement made by her attcrney in New York, has retracted the confession, on the strength of which W. L. S. Langerman was allow- ed to go free after he had been convicted of criminal assault in the first degree. Miss Aub now claims, it is said, that the confession was fcrced from her by some of the attaches at the Door of Hope Mis- sion. “You can say that Barbara Aub has re- tracted the confession which she made to Recorder Goft and she now says the story she told on the witness stand during the Langerman trial is true.’ This statement was made last night by Lawyer Fred House, after an hour's con- ference with Barbara Aub and her three aunts, Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. Dean and. Mrs. Kauffin in the tombs prison. Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Mitchell came down to the court house and had a long conference with Judge Cowing. Later she sent word to Lawyer House that Barbara Aub wanted to see him in the Tombs. Law- yer House at once went to the Tombs, where he had a long conference with his client. Later Mr. House said he could not say to whom the retraction had been made, nor could he tell how Miss Aub came to make it. All he could say was that “A retraction has been made. Barbara {s in a very excited state of mind and I cannot get any cohérent statement from her to- right. In the morning I shall see her and get a statement from her then.” Statement to Her Aunts. Respecting the retraction Lawyer House said: “Barbara made no statement to me, but I am informed by her aunts, Mrs. Kausser and Mrs. Mitchell, that she did make a statement to them in which she retracted her confession and said that all her testimeny at the trial of Langerman was true. Mrs. Kausser has been with Barbara nearly all day. Mrs. Mitchell jcined her in -Barbara’s cell about 3:30 o'clock this afterrecn, when she came over to the court house and asked me to see arbara_ immediately. I went and re- ved information from Mrs. Kausser which made me think it necessary that I should see Judge Cowing and the district attorney immediately, which I did. When I went bi to the Tombs I heard no word of retraction from her, for she is not in a mental condition now to make her state- ment valuable. I shall see hor tomorrow and if she has regained her composure I shall undertake to get a written statement from her.” As nt District Attorney Townsend said that Barbara now claims she had been forced into making the confession by Miss Kellard, one of the women missionaries at the Door of Hove, where she remained during Langerman’s trial. Langerman's counsel declared last night that he believed the woman to be entirely sane. He says he will turn over to the district attorney evidence which he has collected since her confession of perjury, including the testimony of two witnesses to the effect that Barbara produced upon her own body the bruises which she show- ed as proof of her accusation against Langerman. ——— +04 HARRISON MEN WAKE UP. They Will Fight for the Ex-Presi- dent’s Nomination. Special Dispatch to the New York World, INDIANAPOLIS, December 11.—All doubt as to ex-President Harrison's active can- didacy for the republican nomination for President was removed today by his pollt- ical managers, who tolegraphed to the Planters’ Hotel, St. Louis, engaging thirty rooms for Harrison headquarters during and for a week previous to the national re- publican convention. When asked to ccnfirm the news of Gen. Harrison's aggressive campaign his inti- mate friends, such as ex-Attorney General Miller, John C. New’s son,John H. Michener and others, smile and say that the general cannot refuse the call of his party. They declare that the ex-President will be a candidate before the convention. It is not denied that he is fully conversant with the arrangercents that have been made, and has given them his tacit approv- al. It is said that Gen. Michener and John Wanamaker will have charge of the cam- paign in the east, and that Senator Elkins of West Virginia is pledged to look after the southern delegations. In New York the ex-President is expect- ing a hearty suppcert, but not an activ until Morton drops out of the rac it is said, he is assured of many votes. -seo— Marringe Licenses. when, Marriage licenses have been issued to the following: John Yates and Mary Brooks; Shedrick White and Lucy Coleman; James E.
