NEBRASKA Al D 1I0WA OUT CF THE RACE | 34 Woth Besten SBatarday snd Thus Deprived E of Any Chance of Winning— Crack Teams Getting Ready for the Great Games. By the victory. of the Omaha High school foot ball team Saturday over Lincoln's team | Omalia has obtained the championship of the 4 morthern eircuit of- the Interscholastic Foot | Ball league. From now on until Thanks- giving day the team will put in the time 3 practicing in order to obtain the champion- k ship of the league.

Both the games | were hard ®ontests and the teums were very evenly matched. Yale was the only oue of | the big college elevens that played Saturday.

Only a we mains before the |‘rh.w‘P- ton-Pennsylvania game takes place. Next Baturday the two teams will join in b usual almost death struggle. There robably no game played during the season n which more determination and “do or die” spirit |8 shown. Pennsylvania always has played harder In this game than in the one with Yale or Harvard, There seem to be an overwhelming desire to Princeton living inherently in the tions of undergraduates of the It Is almost the same at Princeton, college, would far rather have a chance to ub 1t Into Harvard. But the feeiing there very strong and the feeling of both in- titutions has always displayed jtself in its strongest form in the foot ball teams. result has been that both team the field with a wish to die rather than be efeated. From the work of the teams du ng the son it would seem safe to pr dict that FPrinceton will gain gain the victory, Practically the only weak spot in | her line is the center, and that is not very weak. Back of the line the team Is weake: Ward has not been playing his usual 'var: sity game. Desides, he hus been injured and is not recovering us fast as was ex- ected. Reiter, who was expected to take he other position_as half, has a cracked rib. McCormic Vorhis, Rosengarten and Morse pora ut of the game, and, even if they do recover in time, they re losing much valuable f'r‘u‘llrr Cochran at full has been doing only falr work. His muscular build m#kes him a valuable man in interference and his tackling is low and sure. His kicking is good, but a trifle slow. Ho plays with a good deal of dash and hits the line hard. He has been troubled with & bruised muscle in his kicking and this has interfered with both his kick- ing and catching during the past few dayd. His greatest handicap 1% lack of experience. As yet he is unfamillar_with his part ih complicated plays. A freshman named Boannard has also tried the position and has been found to be a fine kicker. He s & good punter and his swift, low line plunges result [n good galns, As defensive player he Is strong, but by no means the equal of Cochran. Burt, who was regarded as flrst in the race for a long time, was a disappointment in the Cornell game'and has since injured his knee. Since then he is not as reliable a player as before his accident. Tyler continues to play full back, but has not shown the Improvement expected of him | early In the season. On the whole, the | position is still in doubL. SHOWING OF THE TEAM IN PRACTICE. As stated above, the weakest spot in the lne is center. The old men are all playing well, but no one is really back in last year's form. The fight still gocs on between Crowdis and Riggs for center, The latter seems to have the hold on the position, but his play is not. at all what might be de- sired. Crowdis had become somewhat dis- couraged by his rival's promotion. Riggs' work, however, is still not so good as to put Crowdis out of the race, and the latter a8 been putting forth every effort to cap- ture the position, and may still beat his rival out. In the'practice of the past week Wheeler ‘has set the pace and has made & wonderful record. He has been given the ball more than any other one man and has never failed to gain his length. He. s a tower of strength and u‘:ml his ability tb lunge through the Quakers' line Prince- onians chiefly base their hopes of success He now weighs 212 and is in good con- dition. Taylor's work at right guard, while being steady and reliable, lacks the s that characterized his work last vear, is very valuable on the defense, but his laying so far has been too llsticss: o aia n making gains. Lea has been doing yeo- man work, both In breaking through ‘and making openings. One of the features of the recent practice has been his brilliant Jorke n interfering. Time and again he han «taken care of a back the entire length of the fleld. Holly s still on the sick lis but is improving slowly and hus played & little. Church has had his place at left tackle, and, for a new man, has done credit- able work.' He is too apt o slug and hold, however, and in recent games has lost the ball repeatedly for Princeton on account of these offenses. Trenchard also is not up fo his usual standard. He has been slow in tting down the field and weak in break- ng up interference. When an occasion de- mands, however, he can be counted on to rise to the emergency. Brown at left enti I8 steadily improving. His tackling is of u high order and his interference cannot be grlticised.

The line Is in very fair shape. Aguard and a tackle Has yet to be devel- . while the whole left wing must be streigthened and a quarter decided upon. The, prictice of the past week has devel: gped more than that of any othet week the strength of the backs and the compara- tive weakness of the rush line. In all the games played this fall the back-of-line men have gained nine-tenths of “the territory | through which Yale advanced, and not only have the backs thus far been the ground- gainers, but they have also been the inter- ferers. With the exception of Murphy, jreenway and Hinkey, there I8 not a man in the line who gets away quickly enough to form good interference for the runner. Butterwerth needs very little Interference, and, in fact, very oftén takes the that seems best to him, and lets t vance guard go its own way. Both Thorne and DeWitt, too, have shown great cle ness in running with little or no interfer- enc He of the Y rapidly. up, and clfinger has been doing the coaching line, and he has taken each man in turn. Hickok improved considerably in his play as a result of the coaching, Mc- Crea, It 18 thought, will have to leave the line, as Brown and Chadwick have been making great progress. Stillman, unlike the two guards, is Showing lots of spirit, and is working hard. Murphy is doing finely at right tackle. and gives promise of making one of the best tackles Yale has ever had. He has g-tten into condition quickly, and |8 not a man who is likely | to be injured. He breaks through well and | tackles low and sure, and when sent with | the ball almost always makes good gains. Young Hickok has been doing well at the other tackle lately. He holds his man well and 1s a sure ground-gainer, his chief fault being In inability to make holes. Mur- ray’s play has been gradually improving, and should Beard be unable to play, the fight for left tackle will doubtless bé be- tween him and R. A. Hick-k. Thorre and Butterworth are doing splendid work, and | the only question is whether DeWitt will | be chosen or right half filled by Mills or Marks., DeWitt is the hardest man to down that Yale has, and when tackled always falls forward. He is not a sure man on a catch, which will count against him. At quarter there i& still an interesting fight, with chances in favor of Adee, although Morris {8 pushing him hard Yale is still showing a dangerous care- lessless in offside playing. The team throughout the year has shcwn a laxness in this respect, and the conchers are pay- ing a great deal of attention now to this fault. It i& a thing which, under the new rules, would prove most disastrous against a strong team. The eleven |s gradually getting Into - shape and displaying more team work, and it 1s expected that the next week will mark a noticeable improvement. A Kicking game is being played quite fre- quently and shows that plans are laid for all contingencies. HARVARD'S TEAM PICKED. The work of (he Harvard team during the past week has been such that the mike- up of the eleven which will represent the college In the big games with Yale and Pennsylvania has been practically deter- mined, and it is now possible to give a list of the men, at.any rate of the forwards, as they will ‘line up In those contests.’ In the rush line this year Harvard will have only two men who played amainst Yale lagt year, and one of these will be on the Teft side of the line, instead of the right, | where he has previously played. Emmons and Mackie are these two men, and Mackie will play left guard Instead of right, One r has been in the rush line in previous years, ex-Captain Waters, who one year was a ta and arother 'a_guard The other rushers will make thelr first ap. pearance as 'varsity players. The line will probably be as follows: ~ Emmons, left end Hallowell, left tackle; Mackie, left guard F. Shaw, center; J.' Shaw, right guard Waters, right tackle; A. Brewer, right end: This line is very much heavier than usual. Back of the iiné things are not so well set- Two of the backs are fully decided upon, C. Brewer, full back, and Wright ington, half back. The former has not becn Up to the mark in many ways thi year, although he is a splendid ground gainer when he has a good line before him. He is a little under welght and his tackling hag been poor, but no one can fill his place. Wrightington has improved very much since last year, - He has grown heavier and he kicks betier. The other half will be either Fairchild or Gouterman. The latter has just recovered from a severe injury, and is in bad shape, but Is a fast, strong run- ner. Fairchild has played quarter hereto- fore, but has- developed into a good back. He ‘tackles well and Kicks splendidly, es- peciaily in tries for goal. The flght for quarter is still between Foster, Wrenn and Teale. Beale, although he filied the posi- tion last year, is least likely to get It this year. Foster |s considered the best player of the three, but he is not regarded stron enough to last the game. ~ Wrenn Is a cool, heady player, interferes well and has plenty of_strenath. The. play’ of the improvement in the there is plenty of room for gressive play is very weak. The inter- ference 1s not good, but the defensive work in the last few games has been first rate. The men are In better physical condition and more buoyant than they have been at any time this season. The outlook bids fair to be brighter in the next week and in that time all the old men will have gotten down to work and much better results are expected, CORNELL AND THE CADETS. Harvard (s very anxlous to arrange an- other game with Cornell. Recent practice has resembled Cornell's game, especially in the kicking. The coachers think that the game was of immense value, and are con- sequently using every effort to obtain an- other. Yale has refused to meet Cornell, be- cause she has no open dates. It is unfor- tunate that a game could nof be arranged, because the relative strength of Harvard, Yale and Princeton could have been judged 10 a certain degree. After: the excellent record that Cornell has made this year it safe to sav that, with as good coaching t year, she will give the big teams a harder rub, The secretaries of war and the navy have been deaf to all the entreaties that have been recently made to secure a foot ball game between the cadets of the two academies on Thanksgiving day. The policy adopted as a result of last year's game to prevent the two branches of the service from meeting again_on the gridiron will be rigldly enforced. On that occasion bitter animosities were aroused, and the secre- taries have determined that they would not take the responsibility of reviving the rivalry. Consequently the game will not be played. The secretary of war has lssued an “order allowing games to be played at West Point, but the team of the cadets Is prohibited from playing elsewhere. The Af- napolis team cannot leave the school. The game played annually at Annapolis and was always a hard contest. Bail Resul s, SOUTH ORANGE, N.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 3—(Special.)— State Treasurer Gramm has filed his annual report with the governor. The report shows that the income from the state land per- manent fund has accumulated to $22,158.88, while there is on hand about $3,00 of rentals lying idle, with no provision for in- vestment or distribution. In this connection the report recommends that the next legis- lature make some provision for investing these funds. The treasurer reports that the money has been deposited in banks and interest amounting to $3,2I1.60 has been added thereto, Section 40, chapter 79, of the session laws of 1890-91 would seem to provide a means of utilizing these funds when it orders that all such funds (referring to state land funds) shall be invested in Interest-bearing war- rants of the state at not a higher cost than par. Wyoming's bonds, however, have always sold at a premium and the state has no floating indebtedness in which to invest, nor, under existing circumstances, can it have, 8o that the law is rendered nugatory. Thé total receipts of the sate treasurer's office from all sources for the fiscal year ending September 1891, were $250,55.12, and the entire expenditures for the same period §216,602.18. The balance in the state treasury at that date was $118,335.16. Fust Time With Stock Trains.

Mr. Powderly himself has not been idle, as dur- ing the past six months he has been in fifteen different states, and with others has gathered evidence in support of the allegations of the intended schemes of the present administration to pack the general assembly, which meets in New Orleans on the 13th 'inst., with ineligible delegates. It was sald tonight by a prominent Pow- derly supporter that eminent counsel has been retained to commence proceedings in the United States courts on the first ap- pearance of “crocked” representatives, and the books of the organizations will be care- fully scrutinized and the perpetrators of frauds will find themselves In the strong meshes of the law.

These earn- est workers have prevailed on the Secretary of the United Mine Workers union, Pat MeBiryde of Columbus, O., to run for the office of general secretary-treasurer. It is claimed no man in the order has a brighter or cleaner reccrd than Mr. McBryde, and the friends of the movement are very much elated that they have at last succeeded in getting a definite promise from him to allow his name to be placed in nomination for the office.

WALL STREET 15 WAITING Operators Adopt the Polioy that Made Mr, Micawber Famons, LOOK FOR TURN UP AFTER ELCCTION Stocks Low Enough to Entice Even Careful nterest s Wt Present Even Lower Tnan the Price of Stoeks. NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—Henry Clews, head of the banking house of Henry Clews & Co., tes of the situation in Wall street: Wall strect remains comparatively stag- nant and during the past week there has been considerable yielding In prices, partly due to the unsettled condition of the anthra- clte interest and partly to unsatisfactory net earnings on some of the granger roads. “On the part of the ‘bulls’ there has been less apparent disposition than usual to stand by the market under this relapse, not, how- ever, from any decline of confidence, but rather because they prefer to see some elasticity In prices as a means of attracting interest and of promoting a freer movement in securities, on the principle that stagnancy is always hostile to values. The railroads, as a rule, are now doing reasonably well and | have before them the prospect of an| increasing tonnage; but they necessarily begin to show the effects of the long depres- | slon of trade in the/r financial stutements | and in_diminished ability to pay the usual | rate of dividends. This is nothing more | than has b xpected, and these consid- | erations have been already discounted in As the facts are made public, however,, there is an imperfectly nformed class Of operators who needlessly take alarm at them. Long-headed ‘bulls' have no objection to fuking ttock from such sellers, feeling that the improving tendency in earnings should scon cause a recovery values. “Th excitement the elections found its way street, and to such an extent as some deferment of business until vote has been tak Special Inter in the election of congressn , from fact that the composition of the next nse of representatives will go far towards de- termining how far the new policy tenden- cles of the party now in power will remain in for Public sentiment shows a deep interest In questions of banking and cur- rency; an enlargement of bank notes is favored, such issues to be based, ot upon the present national system of bond guar- antee, which has now become positively ob- structive 1o fssues, but by a law that would constitute the notes a prior lien upon all the assets of the banks, and which might, under proper safeguards, be made to apply to the state banks as well as the national. Tho Interest felt in Wall street in some such measure of money reform centers mainly in the fact that it would tend to greater stability in the money market and 1o prevent the spasms of scareity that come almost every fall, and equally the over- supplies of money that depress the rate of interest at other seasons. This is one of the factors affecting the future of Investment and speculative operations upon which Wall street will keep a watchful eve, “What the Stock exchange interest now needs is some Influence that wauld arouse investors 1o an earnest estimate of the in- terest-earning value of the leading stocks at current prices. The present range of market values |8 extraordinary low—low compared with the actual present condition of the various properties; still lower com- pared with the more active business into which the recovery of trade is carrying the . and lower still_compared with the that money is earning in the cpen market. How much lower quotations now range than they did under the great panic influences of 1863 will be shown by the fol- lowing statement of present prices of lead- ing investment and speculative shares and those of a year ago: connected with into Wall cause after the is felt the 1.

Out of the twenty-seven stocks here oited only four show any advance over the figures of & year ago. The truest com parison may be made by taking the total Nashviiie pi the period fol of the prices for each year. Thus we find | the total for 183 to be 1,392, and for 1861 1,69, showing a difference of 202 point: dgainst this year. This amounts to an average declinec within the year of 1L15 per cent. It surely will not be contended that there is any difference in the condition and prospects of the rallroads, or in the spirit of trade, or in the tone of public con- fidence, or in the state of the money mar- ket—to' warrant any such adverse diffe ence in the value of securitics; on the con- trary, all these factors affecting values are in fayor of the present situation, as compared with that of a year ago. W erefore cannot but regard the present condition of prices as unusually favorable for investment in the stocks of good cor- porations.’ LONDON MONEY MARKET. All Securities Firm and Americans Take an Upward Turn, LONDON, Nov. f.—After the hardening of discount rates at the beginning of last week the money market relapsed to its former level. After the shadow caused by the approaching death of the czar had been removed the markets on the Stock exchange improved all around, with every appearance of a continuance of the upward movement. I’urulgn securities were buoyant, Russlans rose % per cent and Turkish % per cent Argentines and Brazillans were fum. Rumors of a new Brazilian loan were cur- rent. A better feeling prevalled in the market for ‘American securitics, which responded quickly to any upward movement in York, With' the exception of Lake Shore, which was down 34 per cent, the week's movefnents were all forward.

There was little inquiry account for prompt delivery at closing _rates. A good trade _was done ~_ for Bombay, Madras, Corea and Singapore. Little was done for South America and minor Levantine and continental markets. The home trade was moderately active, but very uneven, Prices were easy and nominally unchanged.
