Ashland football team was overwhelm- ed by the Academy eleven, on the cam- pus yesterday hy the. score of 14-0, in the most listless game of the year. In the first quarter the Red and White recelved the Kkick-off and after a series of plunges lost the ball on downs to Ash- land. The visitors were unable to buck the Academy line or skirt the ends and eventually lost the ball on a fumble. From this point, the ball being on the Ashland 40 yard line, the Academy completely outclassed their opponents and through the plunging of Boynton and Capt. Reed's ability to circle the ends, ‘the N.

The -follewing quarter proved to be a punting match between both teams with no trace of a thrill or spectacular work on either side. ' The last half was even more listless <han the first half. By means of flumbles Ashland gained possession of the ball on thelr own 40 yard line. Ashland then opened up their aerial attack and advanc- ed the ball to midfield, but lost on downs. The N. F.

Prices closed heaby, 1 +1-4 to 2 1-8 net lower, with December 1.06-7-3 to 1.07 and May 1.115 5-8 to 1.11 7-8. Corn lost 1-4 to 1-2 cents and oats 1-4 to 3-8 cents. In provisions, the' out- come varied from five cents decline to an advance of 2 1-2 cents. Owing to fancy premiums at western terminals, Montreal was said to have shipped wheat back to Toledo, and there was said to have been a saie of red win- ter wheat at New Orleans at 5 1-2 cents over December f. o. b, New Orleans as against 10 cents premium here for an ordinary car of number 2 red. Besides resellers were understood to be offering wheat at Livenpool below the cost of the wheat at New York. All these factors caused liquidating sales here on the part of holders, and sentiment in general changed from -‘the bullishness which had characterized the market during the earlier part of the session. Initial up- turns appeared to be based chiefly on opintons that receipts of grain would be small for some time, at least until the railroad strike problem was settted. Com, plaints of dry weather too continued from parts of the winter crop belt. Corn and oats were goverened almost entirely by thz action of wheat. Corn husking was reported as making excel- ‘|lent progress. Support from packers counterbalanced in the provision market the effect of weakness in grain and hogs. Chbieago Grain Market.

Last season it was not an out- standing event in an opposing players’ ca- reer to make two or three hits in a game off Aleck. It would have been so four or five years ago. The fans not only of Chicago but all over the country hate to think that the great right-hander is slipping as did Three-Fingered Brown, Matty, Rucket and other great pitchers of bygone days.

O'Dowd, who was making his first pugilistic appearance in New York, displayed a cleverness that Lynch was unable to fathom. O'Dowd used his left to advantage throughout the contest and won 8 out of the 12 rounds. Lynch had the bet- ter of two of the rounds and honors were even in the other two. The fight- ing was fast throughout. Lynch pushed O'Dowd to the floor the fifth round after an exchange body blows. O'Dowd took the count nine and then cams back at Lynch furiously that he had him grogzy at the bell. In the sixth round O'Dowd ‘iad Lynch near a knockout after two hard rights to the jaw, Lynch stagger- ing to hig corner when the bell rang. In the last three rounds Lynch tried to stage a come-back but O*Dowd jabbed him at will ond prevented any rally. O'Dowd weighed in at 11§% pounds and Lynch at 122.

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS HEARS TALK ON FORESTRY New Haven, Oct. 26.—The dangers of forest denudation ard the need of in- creased timber -production were outlined by James W. Toumey, dean of School of Forestry, an addre: , today before the Sa.0ol of Citizenship of the Connecticut League of Women Voters. He declared an in- creasing scarcity of wood ultimate’y would result in a permanent shrinkags in many industries. “Out of the original 822,000,000 acres of forests in this country, we have left only 137,000,000 acres,” he said. “From this diminishing reserve we now draw thregefourths of our annual cut of twen- ty- billion cubic feél: It would ac- complish nothing to prohibit further cutting. What the country needs is to learn how to bring back the cut-over lands into foresis again. The last vir- gin forests will disappear in Afty I’years . FORME# TCMPEROR CHARLES BARRED FROM ENGLAND London, Oct. 26—(By The A. P)— Under no circumstances will former Em- peror Charles of Austria-Hungary be al- lowed t6 come tg England. This was the answer today in official circles to a re- ported desire of the ex-emperor to accept exile In the British Isles and to take up life there as a country gentleman. Arrangements might be made, it was said, for him to be exiled in mome re- mote British possession, if no other place seems avallable, but in view of his air- plane adventure from Switzerland last week, England i considered too close to Hungary to be a place of permanent ex- ile.

ITS FINAL,ATTEMPT (Continued from Page One) That tte government contemplates in- | junction proceedings against the unions for wiolation of the transportation act was indicated by the trend of questioning, conducted- by Ben W. Hooper represent- ative of the public on the board. Hooper sought throughout his examin- ation of the five upion leaders to bring out that their strike order was not only in deflance of the July wage cut decision, but by including other and unsettled questions violated that part of the trans- portation act which sayes all disputes “shall” be referred to the board first-for settlement. Lee, of the trainmen, sald his organi- zations’. ballot was based solely on the July 1 wage cut and declared he had withdrawn from the brotherhood's joint meeting and refused to subscribe to their ballot The language of the joint ballot, he said, inplied other questions were involved, The other leaders defended the joint ballot and asserted, that the other ques- tions referred to all had a bearing on the frame of mind which jed the em- ployes to votesor a strike. ‘The question of time and one-half ofr overtime and of general' revisino of sched- ules were included in the decision pre- ceding the strike question proper on both the joint ballot and that of the trainmen, they said. ~ Whilemll the union chiefs maintained that the strike question was technically taken cn the July wage cut, all admitted that the other questions would probably figure in any settlement. leading to calling off the strike. Questioning of the- union leaders brought out that a vote against the strike had been returned on 23 roads by the conductors; on 14 roads by the trainmen; and on three roads by the fire- men. Cashen said the switchmen on- ev- ery system -voted in favor of striking. Stone, after a heated protest against fu nishing the information “to his enemies, agreed to obtain it from his office i Cleveland. Frequent Clashes at Hearing The hearing was marked by frequent clashes between members of the hoard and Stone. The engineers’ grand chiet charged Chairman Barton was not giving the unions a fair hearing, after he had at- tempted to introduce the names of seven roads, which, he said, violated ggders of the board. . The chair ruled against the evidence. “It is not our purpose to sit here and listen to discussions going back into the history of other decisions, or the merits of decisions that we have rendered) the chairman said. “If you, want to be heard on that, you may be heard at another time and place.” “l want to call your attention to the fact that Mr Hooper just finished asking that identical question of Mr. Sheppard, and Mr. Sheppard replied to 1t.”” Stone re- torted. “Violations of schedules by the differ- ent roads has been going on for months, and that has led up to the frame of mind that you find these men whoin I repre- sent in. “If we cannot find relief in this board, then I want to know where the 80,000 engineers can find relief, If we are to be prohibited explaimng the feeling of our men, then I do not see that there is anything more for me to say.” Stone finally, was permitted to read the names of the seven roads, on motion of Walter L. McMinirmen, labor member of the board. The first two were the At- lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic and the Missouri rand North Avrkansas. both of which are in the hands of reccivers. “Don’t you know our decisions were overruled by the federa! courts on thoss roads?”, Chairman- Barton and Mr. Hoop- er interrupted in unison. _“Then to carry it to a logical conclu- sion, all a road needs to do is to go in- to a receiver's hands and the transporta- tion act is nul land void.” Stone replied. By adjournment time this afternoon, the board had finished its questioning ot the: chief executives and the railroad representatives were on the program for the evening session beginning at 7 o’clock. After the day hearing Mr. Cashen in a statement to newspapermen sald: “Nothing transpired at the day meet- ing to change the situation, so far as a semm\em is concerned.” It was decided, the board announced convening of the wight session, that no further representatives of the union would be called. Executives Questioned. T. Dewitt Cuvler, chairman of the As- sociation of Railway Execut acting as spokesman for the rail officials, then presented a summary of events leading to the vresent crisls, so far as the rai Way executives were concerned. Mr. Hooper inquired if any road in tended to make any change in wages or rules without taking the matter to the board. “No, sir” Mr. Cuyler answered. “Has any change in rules or wages been put in effect In any class of em- ployes without bringing it to this board or by agreement With its employes?” Mr. Hooper asked, directinz his ques- tion to the executlves generally, B. A. Worthington, vresident of the Cincinnat!, Indianap and Western, said he had. “In the latter part of June we zave notice to the four brotherhoods that we would like a conference as to working conditions,” he said. “#30 Brotherhood of Rafiroad Train- mexs committee responded but we were unable to reach an agreement when tha committee was authorized by its chief executive to stop Such nezotiations. “On August 1 we discontinued payment of time and one-half for overtime. “We Sugzested that aftet th econfer- ence, if any controversy arose. we would take the disnute to vour board. “If the board decides that question agalnst us we will pay back pay from August 1, when the change went into effent.” “When a roid makes a chonge like that, doesn’t it encouraze defiance of the board’s decisions?’ 2sked Mr. Hooper. “It didn't occur to me that this change might violate anv board decision, because a thirty day notice had been given,” Mr. Worthinzton replied. Hooper then asked Worthington 1t he would be willing to revoke his order pending the hoard’s decision and Worth~ ington said He would. “That is a fina example to set,”” Mr. Hooper excloimed. “While that feelinz is rampant,” Stona interjected, “may I Tead 2 list of 38 other roadg which are in the same boat?" He was permitted to read his list, whirh consisted of short lines. Only one of the roads named by Mr. Stone was cited in fie present hearing, it developed from further testimony.

Chairman .Barton explalned that in every case where a violatlon by one of these so-called “short lines” was brought to the attentjon of the hoard, the road had been asked to maintain previous wages. . “Unfortunately.” Mr. Stone retorted. “we want those wages for our men now —not for their grandchildren. Those men are now compelled to work for these reduced wages. Where we haven't strength to resist, We merely have to stand for it.” Mr. Hooper pointed out failure of the unjons anA roads to appoint arbitration boards, provided for by the tramsporta- tlon act had thrown a heavy burden on the boord and delayed decislons in pend- ing cases “Yes” answered Mr. Stone, “but we are in no way responsible for the' trans- portation act.

On retrrn of the road to private control, i# was necessary to reduce rates of pay, he said, even now freight rates failing to give relief. Mr. Baird, said he called the terminal employes together to consider the pro- posed new rates, of pay. The company agreed to reduce pay only to the point where the road could earn only operat- ing costs. If this was not possible, it would be necessary to cease operation. The employes therefore agreed, Mr. Baird said, to accent 75 to $2 per cent. of their standard rate of pay. So’ far as I know, not one man has objected,” the witness added.
