Mass., _Dec. 18.—The failure of the Harvard and Michisan Tootball authorities to agree upon a eeting between the football teams of the two universities next season was the subject of a statement by Fred W. Moore, graduate treasurer of ath- letics, tonight. Mr. Moore explained that the arrangement of.the game be- tween the two elevens during the past Season was accompanied by no men- tion of a second contest. Later, when the subject came up, Mr. Moore said, he made it plain that a second game could mot be played unless it fitted into the plans of the Harvard coaches for the gradual development of the team. “The football committee has decided that a game with Michigan next fall is rot advisable and I have so notified Director Bartélme of Michigan,” he said.

Affected by Freight Rate Decision of Interstate Commerce Commission. New York, Dec. 18.—Prior to the an- nouncement made_shortly before mid- day that . the. Interstate Commerce commission har granted a restricted five percent freight rate advance to | the eastern railroads, the stock mark- ct was dropping /at’ a ' pace which strongly suggested liquidation. In the brief period between'the opening of the market and the publication of a summary of -the -decision prices crumbled 2 to 3 points and were four to six points under the high level reached on Tuesday, when open-trad- ing in the entire list was reestablish- ed. Some large amounts of call money wer. points of the minumum - prices and seasoned issues were declining for lack -of subport. What made the! movement more _noteworthy was- the fact that it took very little stock to effect: the declines. The average transaction at that time was in 100 and 200 shares, with losses between sales extending to halg a point or more. Although early advices respecting the decision were somewhat mislead- ing they were of a tenor to indicate that many of the more important de- mands of the railroads had been granted, Tihs was sufficlent to pre- cipftate a hasty ~covering movement Dby the bears and induced some long buying,” which not only obliterated all early losses, but restored the average of prices well above the previous day. Realizging in the final hour caused an- other shading of values, with few net changes at the end. By students of the railway situation, the decision of the. Interstate Com- merce commission was regarded as a victory for the roads, although its im- portance nullified in large part, it was said, by the fallure to include coal, coke and iron ore in the list of com: modities entitled to higher rates. Most of the eastern railroads. derive a large part of their tonnage from these pro- ducts, in some cases the percentage running up almost to 70 percent. This money was easier, the rate for ail dates being reduced to 4 percent. some large amount of call money were placed at 3 percent. The local federal reserve bank followed the lead of sim- ilar institutions elsewhere by lower- ing its discount rates. Eonds were heavy at the outset, but recovered with shocks. Total sales.

Unwise to Play Team Like Michigan in Mid-Season. Michigan will not play Harvard next fall, acgordis to an official announce- ment - by the Wolverine authorities. Professor, Whitney, ehairman of the board in‘€ontrol of athletics, gave out the following statement in explana- tion: “On Saturday, December 12, Athletic Director Bartelme received a telegram from Mr. Moore, the graduate treas- urer of the Harvard University Ath- letic association to the effect that ap- parently there is no_possibility of a western trip by the Harvard football team this vear or mext, and that their coaches ‘thought that because of green material next fall, a mid-scason game with a team so powerful physical s Michigan would be unwise, In reply to any inguiry by telegram as to whether the decision of the Harvard authorities was final, Mr. Moore re plied in the afrmative.” Michigan athletic authorities played this year's game with absolutely no arrangements as to the future, but they were given to understand that another contest was certain, and also led to believe that a western trip by the Crimson was not an impossibility the future.

The vast jets of steam blown miles high, hurl- ing stones, cinders, and lapilli far and wide, filling the heavens with vapor and smoke, and hailing down ashes and fragments over the surrounding regions, have never been -observed here. Some action of this sort is in- deed represented, but only in a feeble way. The lava weels forth like water from a hot, bubbling spring, but so mild are the explosive forces that the observer may stand to the windwarg of the grandest eruption, so near the source that the heat will make his face tingle, vet without danger.

Frederich von Bernhardht who has come into _worldwide prominence through his book, “Germany and the Next War,” was born Nov. 22, 1849, at Petrograd (St. Petersburg), where his father was stationed as Prussian con- sul. He was educated at Berlin and Hirschberg. He has twice been mar- ried. On April 18, 1369, he entered the army and became general of the Sev- enth army corps in January, 1908. He has received the decoratiom of the Iron Cross and the title of excellency. As a retired general and adviser to the kaiser, and living at Cunnersdorf, he wrote the work which has turned the attention of the world in his direction. King Ferdinand of Roumania, sug- ceeding the late King Charles, was in 1899 declared prince of Roumania and heir apparent to the throne. Physical- 1y he has never been very robust, and the threat of tuberculosis has' hung over him for year: He is said to have little taste for ‘soldiering, - his mind leaning rather toward science, and his education has been along this line. He is described as shy, reserved and un- bending. He married the Marie, daughter of,the Duke of burgh, a brother of King Edward: VIH of England.
