CENTRAL | AFTER THE ELECTION | Great Interest in This Afternoon’s Foot Ball Match. BIGEVENT IN THE HIGH SCHOOL YEAR Looking Forward to the Yale- Princeton Game. s CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Sa The Eastern and Central High School foot ball teams will meet this afternoon at the National Base Ball Park for their annual game in the inter-High School champion- ship series. A close game is expected and the backers of each team are confidently looking forward to victory. The games be- tween these two teams in past years have always excited great interest, and while the teams this year are not up to the mark of last season’s elevens, still they are as even- ly matched, and an interesting contest will be the outcome of their meeting. Mr. P. Schell will referee, Prof. Hall of Gallaudet College will umpire and Dr. Bryan of the Western High School will act as linesman, assisted by E. A. Playter of the Eastern and E. W. Wilson of the Central. Last year the teams played to a tle, and when the game was played off Eastern de- feated Central by 4 to 0. The only line that can be drawn on the relative ability of the teams is afforded by a comparison of the scores in the games against the Gallaudet Reserves. The Cen- trals defeated the Reserves by 18 to 0, while the Easterns won by 12 to 0. The greatest interest is felt in the game in High School circles, only one event in the school year, the annual prize drill, eclipsing it. Both schools will be largely represented by male rooters, while the girls, always loyal and erthusiastic, will be pre: ent in force, decked in the gay colors of their school, waving flags and cheering on their favorites. The line-up of the teams will be as fol- lows, with posibly a change or two: Eastern. Position. -. Center .. . Right guard Left guard . Right tackle Left tackle . ~ Quarter back - Right half back .

VIEWS OF CRIMMINS AND CROKER Each Accuses the Other of Making Rank Blunders. HOW QUIGG WAS DEFEATED Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. NEW YORK, November 10, 1893. Reaping election aftermath seems to pe the order of the day in New York city and state. Republicans and democrats alike are explaining how it all happened. The joy of the republicans over the election of Roose- velt is tempered to a considerable extent by the remarkable democratic majorities achieved in Brooklyn and by the fact that @ majority of the congressmen from New York state will probably be democrats dur- ing the next two years. The independents and some good demo- crats, ike John D. ‘Crimmins, are saying that Croker did it. On the other hand, Cro- ker claims that the soldier vote is responsi- ble for the election of Roosevelt. In sup- port of this fact he points out the defeat of Quigg by Captain Chanler in the fourteenth congressional district. From this Croker concludes that this is a soldier's year and that the only way the democratic party could have won in New York state this year would have been to have nominated a hero of the Spanish-American war. Not having a hero available, the democrats were fore- doomed to defeat when Roosevelt was nom- inated. John D. Crimmins, the ‘street car king” and the “civilian king,” as he Is called here in New York city, has apparently forgotten that Tammany may have something to say about franchises and street railway exten- sions during the next three years. At any rate, he is attacking Mr. Croker for the “turning down” of Judge Daly. Said Mr. Crimmins in an Interview: Mr. Crimmins, on Mr. Croker. “Judge Van Wyck, a man entitled to the greatest respect, an admirable candidate from every point of view, disappeared from sight soon after the Syracuse convention, and Croker took his place in the public eye. It was a great mistake. Mr. Croker talked too much; he forced himself too far for- ward. He became an issue. “He made the great mistake of interfer- ing with the independence of the judiciary. He should have sunk personalities and prejudices in the interest of the party. He showed unwise leadership when he did otherwise. He placed his party on the de- fensive in an issue which should have been avoided. It set the people of the state to thinking. If the master of our local govern- ment assumed to dictate to judges, what might happen, they argued, if this man be- came master of the state government. Would his success be followed by dictation to the highest of our judicial bodies, the court of appeals?. I haven't the slightest doubt that thousands of votes up the state were turned by this very issue. “Among my friends in Tammany Hall are those who after years of faithful serv- ice have reached high places in the party councils, and naturally have been brought close to the leader. These men tell me they have found a new Croker this year. They say their suggestions and their ad- -| Vices have been coldly thrust aside by Mr. Croker, and that the calm, silent man, who was considerate of advice and anxious for information, has become a dictator, regard- less of the opinions of others. His power was never so absolute. I am told thai leaders who formerly consulted with him are afraid of him, and that the scenes in the Democratic Club are those of servility of slaves to a master. ‘I consulted with Mr. Croker regarding the nomination of Judge Daly, presuming that my suggestions would be received in a friendly spirit. I found later that Mr. Croker was bullheaded from the start In regard to this nomination, and would not be turned. The issue followed. as a matter of course, and the republicans pushed it with all of their power.” Mr. Croker on Mr. Crimmins. Mr. Croker did not take the advice of Mr. Crimmmins and stop talking even at this late date. In an interview he sal “You can say for me that Crimmins is a sorehead and likes to see his name in print as well as to hear himself talk. If Crimmins thought the agitation in favor of Judge Daly would hurt Van Wyck why did he press it so hard? The votes of the ju- diciary candidates shows that Judge Daly’s failure of a renomination cut no figure. [ had nothing to do with the campa: side of New York. The rest of the state was in charge of the state committee and others. As to what they did I have nothing tos This last statement of Mr. Croker is to say the least misleading. The state cam- paign for the first time in the history of the democratic party was not in the charge of the state committee. The chairman cf the state committee, Frank Campbell of Bath, was unheard of during the campaign. The central figure was Senator McCarren, rhairman of the campaign committee of . This committee was appointed upon initiative of Mr. Croker at the Sara- This campaign committe arge of the ling of the funds sent up the state for electioneering poses, indeed conducted all of the details of the campaign usually devolving upon the state committee. campaign committee by Mr. Croker from the beginning to the end of the campaign. In fact, he made his headquarters at three places, the rooms of this committee at the Hoffman House, the Democratic Club and Tammany Hall.’ Mr. Campbeil, th airman of the state coin- Secretary Benedict and other pro- -d Hill men are protesting against the blame for the heavy republican vote and the light democratic vote being saddled up- on them at this late date. So thick is the atmosphere of gloom at the magnificent new Democratic Club, so many and so bitter are the attacks now be- ing mace upon the leader of Tammany Hall that Mr. Croker’s personal friends expect that he will sail for Europe in a few months and that he will again devote himself to his string of horses still remaining on the oth- er side. This does not argue that Mr. Croker ex- pects to retire from the leadership. He has repeatedly announced during this cam- paign that he expects to retain the leader- ship of Tammany Hall while he lives. It simply means that he will probably take another of his long vacations, th> forward movement of Tammany Hall having been checked by the votes of the farmers of the state. Bosn Doex Not Feel Defeat. Mr. Croker and some of Mr. Croker’s friends do not consider that he has be2n defeated locally. They argue that any man who can nominate candidates who sweep the metropolis by majorities reaching to $0,000 or 90,000 is a political power that must be reckon2d with. The heavy majorities obtained by Van Wyck in the city will perhaps explain the results in all of the congressional districts of Greater New York save the fourteenth. Here L. E. Quigg, the present incumbent. was defeated by Capt. William Chanler by a plurality of at least 6,000. Even Chanler himself did not expect more than 2,900 plu- rality. This remarkable change of a° dis- trict from 12,000 republican two years ago to 6,000 democratic this year cannot be ex- plained solely upon the theory that Van Wyck pulled Chanler through in that dis- trict. A number of causes combined to produce the result. In the first place, Mr. Quigg was chair- man of the republican committee, and was compelled to do twe men’s work. He was obliged to look afier the campaigns of the other candidates tn New York county, as well as after his own. This division of his time natarally weakened him. Then he was far from being a well man. He had returned from Hot Springs against the ad- vice of his physicians to make the race. ‘He was in ill health when he entered the fight, while his opponent entered full of Yife and activity. Then again Capt. Chan- ler’s war record, as Mr. er urges, un~ doubtedly did help the democratic candi- date to a considerable extent. But the chief reason for the defeat of Quigg ean be traced back to the fierce municipal fight as dominated tirely without They have jhst’ come from one of the best known “andker In this. country — whose creations ‘are carried In the best stores of America.

April 18 last Danen- hower obtained from Braun by false pre- tenses the sum of $1,000; the second count in the indictment charging the larceny of the same amount. / Mr. Danerhower, accompanied by his counsel, Mr. Frank-T.. Browning, arrived at the city hali shortly after 1 o’clock. To a reporter for The Star he denounced the ac- tion of Braun as an attempt to collect a claim against him by méans of the criminal statutes. - m “Braun came’ to»this’ city last spring, said the defendant, “and employed me to assist him in securing the lease of the Bay Ridge resort. I worked for him in the mat- ter, and in Baltimore he paid me $1,000 for my services. “A few hours after the transaction he talked with some of his friends, and they told him he had made a fool of himself. Whereupon he abandoned the idea of leas- ing Bay Ridge and demanded from me the money paid over not two hours before. 1 refused, and now he claims I stole the $1,000 and secured it by false pretenses.” Mr. Danenhower’s friends in the city de- clare he was entirely honest and upright in his dealings with the Baltimore parw, and have no apprehension as to the out- come of the proceedings. Proceedings were begun this afternoon for a writ of habeas corpus. The applica- tion will be argued Wednesday morning. He was admitted to bail in the sum of s1500, Attorney Browning going his securi- =e ES It pays to read the want columns of The Star.

It was expected that the actual street work in equiyping the City and Suburban street railroed, formerly the Eckington, with the underground electric system on the portions of the road within the limits of the city would begin early this week. Ow- ing, however, to the delays which seem to be inevitable in an enterprise of this char- acter, not ail of the iron needed bas been delivered, and in consequence operations have not been begun. A portion of the iron yokes and the rails have been received, and have been hauled to the terminus of the city section of the tine at New York and Florida avenues, and for some distance west from that point. It ts the belief that as soon as the iron arrives in this city the work can go forward rap- idly. If it was not liable to result in dis- appointment by announcing in advance a positive date, the managers of the road would be prepared to say at the pres- ent time htat they fully expect to have the road in operation by the Ist of Febru- ary next; but there are so many contin- gencies that it is difficult to make any definite statements. The plant of the Potomac Power Com- pany is being prepared to furnish the pow- er required on this road when it is ready to operate by electricity, and it is the pur- pose to have tae machinery in the power house in- readiness for use at least a month before the date for the completion of tne road. ee ARGUMENTS MADE. Hearing of Case Against C. and P. Telephone Company. The case of O. G. Staples against the Chesapeake and Potomac .elephone Com- pany, in which the plaintiff seeks a writ of mandamus compelling the defendant company to furnish him three telephones at the rate of rental, $50 per annum, pre- scribed by Congress, was argued today be- fore Justice Cole in Circuit Court No. 1, the judge reserving a decision. Mr. Staples is proprietor of the W. lard and National Hotels and the Riggs House, and one of the leaders in the fight for cheaper telephones. He was represented by Messrs. Birney and Woodward and Hemp- hill and Peter. Mr. A. S. Worthington has been called in as associate counsel for the telephone company, acting with Mr. Jere Wilson. The points in the case are said to be the same as in the equity suits in which the court upheld the subscribers. ee ‘Thousands of situations have been ob- tained through the want columns of The Star. . e MAY LOSE HIS FooT., Gunning Accident by Which David Yeatman is Injure Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. HYATTSVILLE, Md., November 11, 1898. David Yeatman, a resident of Washing- ten, D.
