The 'varsity for- wards opened up great holes In the scrub Tine and many. fftesn and twenty-vord gains were made through the center. A feature of the practice was the splendid interference in_end runs. Several times the whole Interference would get around the ends unbroken and go tearing down the field. = Bell, who replaced Kingshury ot tullback, did some fine work, tackling well and making several long runs. Wednesday afternoon the ‘varsity played Lincoln Medics a twenty-minite prac- game. The doctors have a heavy team and times put up a stff game, but they were mot up to the condition of the university men and frequently had to call for time. The 'varslty made three touchdowns and Stringer kicked all three goals. Both teams weemed 10 be stronger on offensive play. The physiclans by line buckin mado fifteen or twenty vards severa times, but they would soon lose the ball on downs. The Nebraska ends were im- preguable and frequently tackled ~the medics’ backs for losses.

He sald today “It 18 not customary for the Jackey club to discuss the detalls of evidence, but In order that our American friends may not feel that Relff has been harshly or unjustly treated, I may say that his riding of Delacy was as palpable and barcfaced an instan:e of not trying to win as ever I saw In all my experlenze.

BY A SIGNAL OFFICER (Continued trom First Page.) Continuing his narrative, he ““At the beginning all the ships turned toward the Spanish fidet, which was emerging from the harbor. The Spanish vessels came out in a southwesterly direc- tion and ported helm, continuing to the westward practically parallel to the coast line. Our ships then making not as great speed as the enemy's began to fall behind, so that Indiana, Oregon, lowa and Texas starboarded helm, and made all the speed they could in a parallel course with the Spanish €quadron. I did not see the movement of Brooklyn.' p's Course at Vartance. “The first time I noticed it was twentv or twenty-five minutes after the action began, when I turned my eyes to the west- ward and saw Brooklyn standing apparently the battle sald due southward directly at right augles to | the course we and the other American shiva were steering. This struck me so foreibly because the other ships were in column and steaming westward. Brooklyn was in close proximity to several others of our ships. They appeared bunched. but Brook- Iyn was steaming southward and firlng with its stern gun, while some of the others. 1 could not distinguish which, were close to it. The spectacle was so remarkable that I explained the fact to the commandink officer of our ship, saying that [ feared Biooklyn was injured and going out. “It, however, changed Its course and went west on a Iine well outside that of the other ships. 1 think Oregon was in the lead, elther Oregon or Texas, with Towa following and Indiana in the rear. Brooklyn steered a course parallel about a mile or more to the southward, skirting along the column formod by the fleet. By that time the chase was well under way and the relative positions of the vessels were not changed." Mr. Rayner's cross-oxamination of Cap- taln Dawson was directed toward show- ing that his testimony was based upon recollection and that consequently he w liable to be Inaccurate. The witness ad- mitted that he testified only from memory. Dut he sald: “I was on deck as a signal officer and it was my duty to observe closely and make report.” He sald that Brooklyn had had gone about 2,000 yards to the southward. Table of Coal Supply. When Captain Dawson was excused Lieu- tenant C. W. Dyson of the hureau of steam engineering, Navy department, was intro- duced to present a tabulated statement showing the amount of coal on hoard the vessels of the flylng sauadron from May 18 to June 1, 1898, as complled from the steam logbooks of the various vessels. Mr. Rayner sald he would not object to the presentation of this statement, but that he would ask that it be o extended as to show how long this coal In each case would carry the vessels under forced draught, leaving sufficlent on hand to take the ves. sel to any glven base of supply. Captain Lemly sald he had no objection to supplying this additional information, but at 3:50 p. m. the court adjourned for the day before the table could be pre- sented Morning Proceedings. ptain Sigsbee was the first of yester- day's witnesses to appear for the purpose of correcting his testimon; Capthin Sigsbee stated (hat he had made another scarch last night for the dispatch from the Navy department under the terms of which he sought to ccnnect with the flying squadron off Santiago and that he had found a private letter which he had written at the time in which he had said: “Until we sighted tie vessels on the 20th we knew nothing positive as to thelr where- abouts "’ Lieutenant Doyle then resumed his testi- mony, begun yesterday. He was examined by Mr. Raymer. He continued in reply to questions to glve a narrative of the cam- pailgn. Mr. Rayner asked: “What do you know from your own ob. servation in reference to the strength of the shore batteries and the gun Replylng Lieutenant Doyle sald that at the bombardment which had taken place June 6 the Zocapa battery had replied at first very spiritedly, but that it soon “‘went out of business.” After the ships with- drew the enemy had again manned their guns and then shot at the ships. On the occasion of the second bombardment they did not remain so long. “They always took a snap shot at us we left,” be sald.

This was the re- duction announced in Tuesday's dispatches. | It applice only to the sections of the coun- | try in which beet sugar competee. | The cut in price at Missourl river points | was to 3% cents per pound net for granu- lated. On Tuesday the net quotation was | 6.08 cents. In other words, Mr. Havemeyer | bas authorized a cut slightly in excess of 1% cents per pound. To understand the importance of this cut to beet sugar manufacturers it should be mentioned that the practice of the beet | sugar people is to make contracts for their entire production at prices based on the selling pricé of the sugar combine on the date of dellvery. The beet people have heretofore been easily able to dispose of all their sugar ot a discount of 10 points from the American Sugar Reflning com- pany's figures. This means, it the beet people live up to their contracts, that they will receive 32-G cents per pound for thetr product. It Is understood, however, that the beet sugar people will refuse to recog- nize the cut made by the American Bugar Refining company on the technical ground that it fe in restraint of trade. The beet sugar refiners of Utah, Colorado, California and Nebraska are the refiners concerned. It 1s expected that this cut will have an un- settling influence upon the local market, but it is not expected that it will be followed by any important cut in prices in the east- ern market. No change was made In the sugar com- bine's prices for eastern markets yesterday (Wednesday) and the difference of 1.10 cents per pound still holds between the price of the raw and the manufactured article. The American Sugar Refining company pecple claim that beet sugar manufacturers cau produce granulated sugar at 2l cents per pound and that there ls, therefore, a §00d profit, even at 3 cents per pound. This {s denied by the beet people.
