The Biz Ha ania Foot PHIE.ADELPHIA, November 21.—As far as the weather is concerned, a more beastly day for the Harvard-Pennsylvania foot bal! game could scarcely be imagined. A cold fight rain began falling early this morn- Ing, and at noon there was still a heavy Irizzle, accompanied by a chilly northeast vind. It will take a heavy downpour, how- ever, to make the field soft, as it was as dry as powder before rain commenced. There is seating capacity for 20,000 persons, the big Franklin field being entirely sur- rounded by twenty tiers of seats. About 200 Cambridge shouters reached the city this morning, and with the Pennsyl- iz rs made life miserable for the staid old Quaker who had the temerity to venture out on Chestnut ard Broad streets. The decorations are beautiful. Nearly every business house down town and hun- dreds of private residences in the business section of the city are gaily trimmed with crimson and red and blue bunting or dec- orated with large flags of the respective colleges. Fifteen minutes before the scheduled hour a penetrating drizzle was still falling, and the weather conditions were generally wretched. In spite of this fact, however, the stands were rapidly filling, and large centingents of shouters for both sides were on hand. The stands were kaleidoscopic with color, and there were not a few wo- men in the constantly swelling crowds. A conservative estimate at that hour indi- cated that fully 20,000 people would be on hand to witness the battle royal. It was 1:55 when the Pennsylvanfa team came on the field. They were followed at 2:05 by the crimson eleven, both teams being given a rousing reception. The Game Begun. After a few minutes’ preliminary practice the teams were cailed to the center of the field and given their instructions by the umpire, and the great battle was fairly on. Harvard won the toss and took the west seal, giving Pennsylvania the ball. Wood- ruff Kicked of for Pennsylvania to Har- vard's thirty-five-yard line. The teams lined up as follows: Pennsylvania.

The Suspension of the Local Assembly f the K. of L. ROCHESTER, N. Y., November 21.—At the forenoon session of the general assem- bly, Knights of Labor, the committee on appeals and grievances decided the ques- tion of jurisdiction between Local Assem- blies 49 and 220 in favor of the latter. The executive board have suspended for fifteen ‘iays the two officers of the Wash- ington Times (secretary and vice president) for makiny staiements agaiast General Secretary-Treasurer Hayes and General Master rkinan Sovereign, and at the end of fifteen days, if the statements are not retracted, the officers will be expelled from the order.

NEW YORK, November 21.—Further knowledge of the movements of F. P. Ar- buckle of Denver in the hours immediately preceding the time when he was found |’ dying in a lonely spot in the northern part of this city Thursday morning has been gained by the detectives. They say that Arbuckle went to the St. Charles Hotel, 6th avenue and 4th street, efter leaving the Legrange on 3d stréet’ néar 6th avenue. He arrived at the St? Charles at 12: a.m., and introduced himself to the bartender, Fred Kinworthy. He was accompanied by a cabman.and two men whom he had picked up on the sidewalk, | and the party had a drink together. Ar- buckle at that time had his money, watch and jewelry. He was very much. under, the influence and Kinworthy told the de- tectives that he (Kinworthy) suggested that he leave his money and valuables in the hotel safe and take a room for the night, as he was not in condition to take care of himself. “Oh, I'm all right,” Arbuckle is sald to nave replied. He then left thé hotel alone and walked down 6th avenue. He boarded’ a “o-th- bound elevated railroad train for Harlem. The detectives claim to know that when he boarded the train he was possessed of his money and valuables. This was at 1:10 a.m. It is added that Arbuckle reached the ter- minus of the elevated road at 1th street at 1:40, and descended from the station to the street. He was seen to walk south on Sth avenue, and then had his watch and dia- monds in his possession. ~ Capt. O’Brien of the detective bureau practically admitted Ee arelien that Ar- buckle had been murdered. ae The four men who are charged with knowing something about how Arbuckle came to his death were arraigned in po~ lice court today and held in $24”) bonds each for their appearance Monday. —_—.——_ Distinguished Englishman's Death. LONDON, November 21.—Sir Benjamin Ward Richardson, M.D., F.R.S., ete., hon- orary physician to the royal literary fund, the newspaper press fund and the Na- tional Society of School Masters, is dead. Sir Benjamin Richardson was born in 1828, was made an honorary member of the Vhilosophical Society of America in 1863, and was a member of a number of other prominent societies. He had been president of the Medical Society of London, and was thirty-two times president of the St. An- drew’s Medical Graduates’ Asscciation. He succeeded Lord Jervis Woode, in 1860, as assessor for the general council in the uni- versity court of St. Andrew's, and held that office for nearly sixteen years.

Senator Platt of Connecticut, who is chairman of the joint commission of the two houses of Congress appointe1 at the last session to investigate the question of the taxation of aleohcl used in the arts, said today that the commission would meet at o'clock next Monday for the purpose of beginning its work, and that it probably would continue its sittings un- til the convening of Congress, though whether in this city would aepend upon circumstances. The commission will take up all the ques- tions bearing upon the use of alcohol in the arts and manufactures and will give especial attention to the administration of any law relieving from taxation alcohol so used. The principal objection to the- provision in the Wilson bill providing for a rebate of the tux, which was repealed when the commission was appointed, was based upon the difficulty of administrating the law so as to avoid fraud upon the gov- ernment. — Colored Citizens for Office. At a meeting of the Laboring Men’s Mc- Kinley and Hobart Club of the District of Columbia, held in the parlors of 443 Ist street southwest, last night, it was-decided to indorse M. M. Holland for judge of the Police Court, to succeed Judge Kimball; Robert H. Key will be supported for sealer of weights and measures for the District, and S. C. Bailey will be pushed for recorder of deeds for the District. Other colored men will be indorsed for other positions. The club has commenced its arrangements to participate in the inavgural parade, March 4, next, and to that end will seek to co-operate with all other District republi- can organizations. eS Suit Against the District. Isador._A. Duchesne late this afternoon filed sult-at-law against the District of Co- lumbia to recover $5,500 damages.

What Representative Howard Says of the Populist’ Policy. Representative M. W. Howard, the popu- list from alabama, who secured a re-elec- tion from his district, after a hard fight, is in the city. Mr. Howard was one of the populist leaders in the south who never took kindly to the fusion electoral plan and upheld Candidate Watson in all the latter had to say on the subject. Mr. Watson appreciated Mr. Howard's position to such an extent that he made several speeches in Mr. Howard’s district to ald in his re-election. Mr. Howard talked to a Star reporter to- day about the future movements of the populists. “There will be no more fusion of popuiists and democrats to aid demo- cratic candidates,” he said. ‘“The free sil- ver men wiil have to come to the populist party, which is the party of the people, and which should have led the last fight. It will lead the next fignt. So far as I am personally concerned, I intend to vote for as high a tariff as can be obtained, either at the coming session of Congress or at the next, and I think that will be the course of other populist mem- bers. I will do this whether I am in favor of it or not. We will try the gold standard and high tariff together, and let the repub- licans demonstrate afterward whether it 1s beneficing the country. I don’t believe the populist Senators will obstruct tariff legis- lation. I do not believe there will be any tariff legislation at ihe coming session.” —-—-++-@ + HANNA AND LVER WE} If He Wan Nominated the Latter Might Oppose Confirmation, The question is being discussed among silver men in Washington whether the sil- ver men in the Senate would confirm the nomination of Mark Hanna as Secretary of the Treasury. There has been no pub- lic senatorial announcement on the sub- ject, but silver men in the city are certain, they say, that a fight cn Mr. Hanna would be proposed in the caucus of silver men, whether it went any further or not. The ostensible grounds for opposition would be the sectien of the statute which is quoted against Mr. Hanna's eligibility. This would serve as the basis for a fight, but the hatred of Hanna would be the real founda- tion. Other silver men think the nomina- tion might be allowed to go through in the hope that Mr. Hanra’s administration would be open to criticism, which would benefit the silver cause. —~-o+—_____ Forbidden in the Mails.

To the Ediior of The Evening Star: Will The Star do us the kindness to give to the public our side of the story? I no- tice by your comments, in your editorial recently, and by numerous letters published lately, that the public is liable to be im- pressed with the idea that Mr. R. A. Gol- den escaped punishment by a technicahty of the law, and that Judge Miller favored us by his ‘construction of the game stat- utes of this District. Now, if Judge Miller decided wrong in this particular case, the learned judges of Oregon, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Minnesota and several other states, that ruled precisely as he did in similar cases, must be wrong also. The quail in controversy were shipped to us from McPherson, Kan., where they are allowed to be killed, and allowed to be shipped out of the state. They were sent to us on commission, and they were never solicited. The shipper, learning of us as rellable commission merchants, had for- warded the birds to us to have disposition made of them. We went into court with letters and data, prepared to prove these facts. How Judge Milier could have ruled otherwise would have been a mystery to us, nor would we have abided by any other decision than the one he made, until the last tribunal should have passed upon it. Wili some one please inform me why by eating Kansas quail in the city of Wash- ington the game laws of the District are affected? I also ask, has any wild deer or grouse or prairie chicken been seen in this | ten-mile square for the last thirty years? And still they are barred from our tables, at the very season of the year when they are at their best by the game laws of this District. There ts some talk of revising and making a new game law. I hope when they do that the promoters and makers of it will take into consideration that this ten- } mile square of ours is thickly settled, and it is safe to say that not one barrel of game exists in the whole District, and that the people who come here should not be dis- franchised from eating game, but should enjoy the same privileges as other citizens of these United States, and be allowed to eat here what people in Kansas are al- lowed to eat there. I am something of a gunner myself, fond of the sport, and al. ways gu when an oportunity presents itself. I admire all true sportsmen, and I sin- cerely hope that when the new law is framed it will be done by proper persons— experienced sportsmen, men that under- stand something about game, its habits and whereabouts, and not by such men as belong to gunning and sporting clubs for the honor, who never shoot a gun, but go to market occasionally, and accuse a few bunches of jack snipe, killed in ‘their proper season, of being woodcock, and the imported pheasant of England of being a native of Virginia, and then go home and write pias. Moore of the outrageous atroc- ities that are Seing carried on in a public bo porbane in direct violation of the law. eaven forbid us from auch game law framers as those. WALTER M. MORELAND, Manager for R. A. Golden, have shown evidences of that. These gen- tlemen will not wish to associate with men whom they have denounced as anarchists, traitors and dishenest people. It would be expecting too much of them to suppose they would do anything of that kind. Who could possibly think of Mr. Bayard, for instance, after havirg enjoyed the triumph of Great Britain over the American people in the last election, as-joining in a caucus of the democratic party? Who would ex- pect such condescension as that from Mr. Bayard? So far as we are concerned, we are cold enough without being frozen with such an iceberg as that.” “Do you think the national democrats will endeavor to have the republicans modify their attitude on the tari@ so that they could support them in another campaign against free silver?” “They will surely wish to offer Mr. Mc- Kinley some cpportunity to exercise an element of consistency, and inasmuch as he has always voted for silver every time he got a chance, and for a high tariff whenever he could do so, he should not be expected to give up both of these policies in order to keep company with five men in the Senate and a majority in probably three election precincts in the United States.

PREDICTION FOR THE FUTURE Senator John T. Morgan of Alabama was seen by a Star reporter today, and ex- HIS PARENTS FOUND. Rufas Emmons Belongs im Lynn, Mans. Rufus Emmons, a ten-year-old lad, ran away from his home in Lynn, Mass., sev- eral months ago, and since that time had updergone.an experience far from envia- ble. For five weeks past the youngster has been confined in the District workhouse as @ vagrant. He will be sent to his home this afternoon, and the climax thereby reached in a case presenting features cf more than ordinary interest. The first Washington knew of the pres- ence of the boy was during the evening of October 15, when he was arrested near Eckington, in company with William Nolin and Frank Hart, vrofessional tramps cr “hoboes.” At the station he gave his name as Robinson Lewis, and wher: arraigned in the Police Court the following 4 manner and behavior of the little fel- low, attracted the attention of Judge Kim- t some ball, who questioned him closely length. The boy admitted that he had run away from home. He told the court that his parents resided on 35th street, New the evi- dences of respectability, appareat in :he pressed his opinion on a number of subjects of national importance in reply to inquiries. Mr. Morgan's forcible and dircct manner of expression always..commands attention. When asked today whether he expected to see the Dingley bill jassed at the coming session of Congress, he replied: “I do not look for that. These New Eng- landers are not in earnest in regard to that bill. They thought at the last session of Ccngress that they could pass the Dingley bill, and flattered and Cajoled the north- western sheep raisers until they cotild get them to lay down their arms and go to them, surrendering their convictions dn the silver Question. They limited the time in which that bill should be effective to two years, so that its benclits could not last long. Now that they have carrie: the elec- tion, they are not willing te put a tax on wool. The New Englan] manufacturer has no use for a tax on wool. ‘he bill came over to the Senate irom the House with that tax in it, and, while it ts very cb- Jectionable to me, and 1 would not vote tor it, I am entirely willing to stané tuo cne side and let them have their way with it. I want to put them to the t nd let the country see that when they have a full opportunity to pass that bill they will not do it, and never did intend it for any pur- pose, except as a (i don't like te use the word) bribe for the people of the north- West to vote againut silver. Now that they have elected their man, they have power to Pass that bill throagh ‘the Senate, as some democrats, I suppose, will help them. I say let them pass it. [ don't know whether any other democrat agrees with me or not, but that is my view or it. As to Bimetallism., Karly in his conversation Mr. Morgan ex- plained that he could exvress no opinion regarding what policy would be adopted by the democrats in Congress during the com- ing session, as he had just arrived here and had had no opportunity to confer with members of his party. When asked wheth- er he looked forward to seeing the new ad. ministration do anything to advance inter national Limetallism, Mr. Morgan replied hey never meant that. Mr. Sherman, after tae election, is quoted as saying that he would agree to no kind of bimetallism that does not put a dollar's worth of silver ira dollar, He comes out with that proposition, which he knows is utterly impossiblesef performance. This is somethirg like the performance when, after the demonetization of silver in 1s we were given a law providing for the free ccinage of the tradgHollar with 420 grains of silver, or 7% more grains than the de- monetized silver dgliar contained. But this dollar had fegal tender qualities only up to $5, and, of eeurse, they were not coined to any extest.. We couldn't even make the Chinese take them. Now we are given another proposition for free coinage wnich makes such coinage impossible. Put gold in the same condition silver is today and give free ,coinage to silver in the United States and gold will sink below par with silver and stay’ there until you give it access to the mints again. The element of comage is a necesdary part of the va! of either metal,1so that the value of silve: as bullion when enjoying mint privileges can only be defermined after it has heen admitted to free coinag. “But do.you think Mr. McKinley will ap- paint a commission to advance the cause of international bimetsllisn?” Mr. Morgan was asked. “He may make a pretense toward that erd, but will do nothing. A law is now cn the statute books authorlzing the Pres- ident to appoint a eommission with au- thority to go abroad and carry on a pow- wow about silver, but the President has never paid any attention to it. Mr. Me- Kinley will have full authority to author- ize « commission to work for international binfetallism, but he will not jo it. Objection to an International | men: “As a matter of fact we can't make any effective agreement with a foreign coun- try to coin any kind of money. Suppose such an agreement is made subject to the approval of Congress. Then it would be an agreement on a legislative question be- tween the United States and England. Suppose we pass such an act and suppose either government cates to repeal it? Ore government might say to the other that she should not repeal it. Suppose Eng- land should reveal the law whether we were-willing or not. We might go to war with England to make her use the kind of money we want. The idea of such an agreement ts absurd. It is mingling the sovereignty of two countries, and we could rot distinguish the difference between them aid the United States would resum> her position alongside of Canada as a prov- ince of Great Britain.” Mr. Morgan then referred to the agrec- ment made by Japan some years ago with Russia, France, Great Britain, the Neth- erlands and the United States providing that that country would not charge a tariff of over five per cent ad valorem on im- ports from the countries named, and spoke of the efforts made by Japan to get rid of this obnoxious restriction of her power to rule herself, saying any international agree- ment on the money question would be open to the same objections as was that agree- ment. “If we were by treaty,” continued Mr. Morgan, “to surrender into the hands of Great Britain the power to control our financial legislation while that treaty con- tinued we would be obliged to perform its engagements, and our sovereignty would be in the hands of the British government and We would be very much in the posi- tion in which Japan placed herself with those five powers. How American citizen- ship can lcok that proposition in the face and for one moment think that that is pos- sible is more than F can imagine. The man who would thrust that condition on the country is in such a position that the Eng- lish language can scarcely characterize the infamy of his action. “Mr. Whitney came ont with a great ful- mination on this subject about the time the Chicago convention ‘was about to meet. As his remarks were’ addressed to demo- crats, and inasmiich #% I was one of the members of that patty, I wrote him an open letter, but”he h&s never replied to it because he simpty could not give an an- swer.

At the direction of Judge Kimball, Dep- uty Clerk N. C. Harper communicated with Chief of Police Conlin and requested that an effort be made to locate the parents of the boy. In a few days a reply arrived to the effect that the parties could not be found. The facts were set before the boy, and he repeated his former declara- tion, adding that the name of his father was Charles Lewis, and that he resided rear a grocery establishment in a certain portion of 35th street. Again Chief of Po- lice Conlin was requested to make a search, and once more came the reply that the parties described did not reside in the locality indicated. Judge Kimbail accused the boy of falsi- fying, and he finally broke down and con- fessed his name to be Rufus Emmons, and that he was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Carey ge R.

For those reasons he had departed, and, he declared he would, if returned to his home run away again ut the first opportunity. A letter was sent to the mayor of Lynn, who telegraphed the reply: “Rufus Emmons belongs here.” Shortly thereafter Clerk Harper was in receint of a statement from Rev. A. A. Wil- liams of Lynn, setting forth that the Em- mens home has always been peaceful and pleasant, and that the allegations to the | ecntrary made by Rufus were false. It | was asked that the boy be detained in a | reformatory if possible. This was done un- til this afternoon, when the father tele- graphed the necessary money for railroad fare to Clerk Harper. In imitation of the prodigal son, Rufus will, therefore, be speeding homeward before darkness falls. > KILLED BY A TRAIT Hearing of Cane for Alleged Viola- tion of the Game Law. Hearing of the charge of violating the game law preferred against Messrs. Ham Glays and Thomas Young occupied the at- tention of Judge Miller in the Police Court this afternoon. After the introduction of testimony and arguments by counsel, Mr. A. R. Mullown2y for the government and Mr. C. Maurice Smith for the defendants, the court announced that he desired to consult authorities, and the case went over til Monday. it will be remembered that Glays a Young were placed uader arrest last Satur- day night while they were in a rowboat on the river at a point between Four-mile Run and the powder magazine. the arrest being madgsy Policemen Perry, Auldridge and Kelly, who were also in a boat. A large lamp, lighted with a reflector, was found on the boat of the defendants, and within was a shotgun. They were charged with violating the game law in that the lamp was used as a snare to attract water fowls; und the hearing this afternoon de- volved on the question of what constitutes a snare. The policemen mentioned testified that the light on the boat was plainly visible from a long distance. It required fifteen minutes of hard rowing, they said, to reach the toat after first placing the light. Robert Fergusor, who said that he has been shooting ducks for ten years past, was called as an expert. Such a light as the one found on the boat of the defendants, he testifiel, was usually operated in order to see th» ducks and blind them. Witness testified that it often happens that fowls fly against the lamps with such force as to smash the gloss Mr. Lee Henning, Policeman Kelly and a Mr. Barry gave testimony similar to that of Mr. Ferguson Altorney Smith at this point stated that the law covering the case was framed with the intention of preventing the capture of ducks by other means than shooting. He thereupon asked for the discharge of his clients on the ground that no proof had been presented to show that they used a trap, net or snare, and, therefore, no case Unknown Struck After ym. 1 Shortly before 3 o'clock this afternoon | an unknown white man was killed near | the District line on the Metropolitan | Branch, B. and 0., by train No. 2, on its | way to this city.

As soon as the engincer saw the accident he | brought his train to a standstill, and, with the assistance of the train crew, placed | the body on board. It was taken to the de- | pot at Takoma Park and left there. The | man’s right arm was cut off close to the shoulder and his face and body badly | bruised.

No Test Case Yeu en Up by ine | Civil Service Commission, There has come to the knowledge of the civil service commission several instances of political assessments on federal office- holders during the récent campaign. No authenticated charge against federal offi- clals accused of collecting campaign con- tributions or against private citizens who solicit money from clerks or other United States officials is ignored. Every case is inquired into, and where the proof is con- clusive action is taken promptly and de- cisively. Several removals have been made of late for delinquencies occurring in lasi year’s state campaigns. No test case has been selected, and the commission say they are not likely to make any test in the near future. — Washington Stock Exchange.
