UKTnoiT. Nov. 28. When night fell over
tho sccno of Inst night's calamity on tho
Wabaah railroad near Seneca, Mich., those
who had been Investigating tho disaster, had
round nothing to alter tho estimate of about
eighty lives lost as a result of tho collision.
Superintendent George M. Burn of the di
vision on which tho wreck occurred Insists
that the estimates aro too high. "I do not
consider," said he, "that the total death list
Will exceed twenty."
Howevor, In support of tho larger esti
mate It Is pointed out that there are now
rourteen pasHongcrs known to be dead. The
bodies of eight of theso havo been recov
ered and It In considered that tho fragments
of other bodies now In tho morguo will ac
count for many raoro than tho twelve dead
taoccssary to mako up Superintendent
lliurns' estimate of twenty. In nddlllon to
tho comparatively row fragments recovered
nnd sent to tho morcue. thnun shn tir

jiivvm woro uncovered which crumbled to
powder while they were being romoved.
llama Gives l.ovr Katlmate.
Superintendent Uurns oald to the Asso
ciated Press tonight that he was unablo to
tell tho exact number of Italian Immigrants
aboard train No. 13, but thought that there
wero not moro than llfty. Passenger on
tho train and a number of thoso who were
early on tho scene dlsputo this and Bay tho
number was nearor eighty. Superintendent
Hums has received no report as yot from
Ticket Colloctor Omen of train No. 13, who
jirobably knows nearer than anyono else
tho number of Italians In tho curs.
Coroner Hamilton of Adrian this after
noon lmpanoled a Jury and will begin nn
lnqueat Into tho disaster tomorrow morn
ing. No flteps havo taken ns yet toward the
arrest or Knglneer Strong whom Superln
tendent Bums says Is responsible for the
collision.
Give Oend.aOieiiaiidred.
Tho official list of tho' dead given to tho
lot.al papors shows tho names of but ten
lead and forty-elght injured, but Detroit
newspaper men, who were at tho sccno of
tho wieek and tnlked with survivors of
both trains, nay that tho official list does
not bear out tho statements of tho passen
gers nor evidence of loss of llfo .which they
witnessed at tho spot where tho accident
occurred.
The Froo Proas tomorrow will say that
the loss of llfo was, In round numbers, 100,
and that tho statements niado by the
Italian Immigrants on train No. 13 bear out
this claim. Theso Immigrants say that
tlioro wcro about 125 of their nationality on
tho train and that only about twonty-flvo of
thorn otcaped. While there aro only ten
of them known to be dead It Is asserted
that the othor ninety were completely In
cinerated and that with tho removal of tho
wreckage the bodies crumbled to duBt,
which was scattered by tho winds. If the
names of thrso dead Rro over known It will
bo when friends make inquiry for them
and in nrany Instances this seems highly
improbable.
Onf Kyewltnesa in Wreck.
A Tribune staff correspondent, writing of
the scenes about tho wreck, says:
"Only ono man was found who was an
eyewitness to tho collision. A. W. Kly, nn
old man TO years of age, residing at Seneca,
stood at tho depot platform nnd srw No. 13
go by. He watched tho train as It went
down the lovol track to destruction. Ills
Attention was arrested by a crash. Then a
stream of flamo and smoko shot 100 feet
into tro-nlr. Kly rushed to tho wreck and
was thp first outsider on tho ground. Ac
cording to his statement the sccno wna one
of awful horror.
"When I got there- tho Immigrant car wan
already on tire and thc'shrleks were ter
rible. I got hold of onr man in the col
lapsed car anil pulled him out, Ho was
hnrrlby crushed and his legs wcro broken,
Jlcdled almost as soon as I got him out of
tho car. Then I wont to tho burning cars
nd what I saw made mo wish 1 had novor
gono to tho wreck."
Tho old man covered his faco with his
hands.
"1 don't bellove moro than fifteen of the
Italians got out of tho wrecked car, for f
aw very fow. Those 'who could get out
rushed around llko rrmy men, calling to
heaven for protection and weeping and
walling In tbolr horror. Thoso poor Italians!
Nothing could be done to save them and we
were s'mply compelled to let them burn."
Cnnslderahln light was thrown on tho
cause of the disaster by the orders which the
conductor of No. 13 showed as his authority
for proceeding past Sand Creek.
Tho order, which was delivered to the
train at Hnllnway, read as follows;
Order No. 2?. Trains No. J3 and 3. No. i.
englno (109, will meet No. 13 at Soneca, and
No. 3, engine O, nt Sand Crock. Knrlnrn
No. SI Hnd 161 will rtouble-head No. IS,
It is understood that tho engineer and
conductor of No, 1 received a similar order
at Montpeller, 0 but If so these orders
were disregarded. If It develops that the
orders Untied to both 'rains wero to the
same .end. It Is considered that the respon
sibility for tho disaster rests wholly with
tho engineer and conductor of tho east
bound Continental limited,
Desurlbr thp Wrrck,
Engineer Parks of the rear engine on
No. 1C han bis left leg broken and face cut.
He doicrlbes the colllalon as follows: "We
had older to meet train No, 4 at Seneca
nnd were running about thirty miles an
hour, The track is straight for several
miles and I could see the headlight of No,
4 coming when we wero nbout three miles
-Seat of .Sand Creek. I put .on the airbrakes
and the shock came before I had time to

The engine on train. No. 4 foil to the south
and our two piled up together. 1 picked

Only n few of the persons who escaped
or were only slightly Injured were brought
to Detroit this morning. What was left

well acquainted with tho people In their
party and say that 100 of tho Itnllans aro
missing and unaccounted for. Thero were
not enough ambulances to carry the
wounded to the hospital and many express
wagons nnd trucks were pressed Into
service.
Among tho wounded at the hospital Is
12-year-old Carmen Pacr, who cries un
ceasingly for his undo. Ills uncle, how
ever, Is dead, having given his own life to

HARTFORD, Conn., Nov. 28. Knocked
out in tho second round, of which one

was the referee's verdict of tho fistic bat
Uo between "Young Corbott" of Denver.
Colo., nnd Terry McOovern of Rrooklyn.
who has held tho featherweight champion
ship unflinchingly since ho won It from
Cleorge Dixon eighteen months ago. Out
witted and outpointed, with a fighter Just
tho same as himself, McGovern had to lower
his colors this afternoon nt the Nutmeg
Athletic club to "Young Corbett" within six
minutes from the start of the fight.
"Young Corbett," who outsldo of ring
parlanco Is known as Hilly Rothwell of
Denver, Colo., got the better of the cham
pion in less than two rounds of fighting
and he did it so perfectly that there was
no doubt about It. The shock to the New
York enthusiasts who crowded the boxing
pavilion when tho llttlo champion was
knocked out In the second round was a
repetition of tho disappointment exhibited
by the adherents of John L. Sullivan wbon
Corbett defeated him In Now Orleans.
Terry Not Fast KiioukIi.
Terry was as fit ns tho proverbial fiddle,
but he wan not fast enough for his man.
From the word "go" the lads went at each
other llko gamococks and It looked as If
either would go out lu the first round. Mc
aovorn got the worst of the opening round
and In Jils endeavor to get in loft himself
open several times,
Corbett Just stood off McGovern on every
lead and trick, but tho llttlo Drooklyn boy
went on ns if thero wero nothing to It but
the winner's end of tho purse. When Mc
Govern was knockod down In tho opening
round thero were cries of dismay from his
backers, but his wonderful recuperative
powers were cqunl to tho occasion nnd he
was on his feet within seven seconds.
However, his downfall seemed to take It
nut of McGovern, but ho fought tho round
In chver stylo and tried hard to stom tho
tide of defeat which soemed to have sot In
against him. He tried all his rushing
work, which proved so profitable) on former
occasions, but Corbott met his every curve
and countered hard on neck. Jaw and head.
When Terry enme back to his corner at
the end of tho first round ho said: "That's
tho toughest guy I over met, but I'll lick
him Just as soon ns I Bee an opening."
That opening did not come very handily
for tho New York boy, ns tho llttlo Deu
ver pugilist had then tnken his measure.
Hushes Like Wild Mini.
Down went Terry again in the second
round and when he got up quickly ho
wished Ilka e: nlld man. He uhowtd n.
lack of self-restraint and in n burst of bad
temper hit out left and right irrespcctlvo
of all rules and usages. These tactics ap
parently wero Just what Corbott was look
ing for. Terry was mixing things up with
whirlwind velocity and throwing science
to tho winds.
It was anyone's fight at this stage, but
Terry fell into a trap as Corbett feinted
nnd sent his right out when McGovern was
side-stepping. This blow Just grazed Mc
Oovern's head, but a moment later Corbott
feinted again nnd, after n rattling exchnngo,
sent his light over to t..i Jaw nnd Terry
wont down nnd out. Whllo the fallen
champion was frantically trying to regain
htB feet the crowd yelled madly.
Wins on Illn MrrlU.
The referee declared that the, young Den
ver lad bad won.
He had won on his merits, as he took
chance for chance.
Terry was crestfallen after he roturned
to his dressing room. He said: "Well,
you can't tell how things can be accounted
for. I hope to make another match with
Corbett and I am moro than confident he
will not be able to put It over me again."
"Young Corbett" was very demure when he
emerged from his dressing room. At first
he was reluctant to talk, but finally said:
"I was suro I could beat McGovern and
my opinion was based on what I had seen
and heard of htm. I felt that I hail him
from the first punch, but I wns cool
headed all through. When I began to
sting him he losj. his head and when ho
lost his head It was all over. I hod him
right there and with a right swinging up
percut I landed the blow which won the
battle."
"Young Corbett" will remain hero for some
days. Dave Sullivan was one of tho first
to send a challenge to the winner as soon
as Charlie White, the .referee, announced
his decision,
Klitlit lr Hounds.
Round One McGovern tried for nn open
ing with Ills loft nnd sent tlm right to
Corbett's Jaw. They cllnrhed. In the
mlxup both Innded lefts. They exchanged
lefts on the face and Mcaovorn, rushing
again, sent his left to the body and right
to the head. Corbett was short on his leads
and Terry bored him to the ropes with a
hard right over the heart. McOovurn
ducked a left swing and landed Ills right
clean on tho oye, forcing Corbett to tho
ropes. Corbett came back plucklly with a
left on the body, which was countered with
n right over the henrt of his opponent. Mc
Govern led again with his right, landing on
his opponent s shoulder, nnd Corbott canio
back with a hard right over the heart,
Binding McQoveni back, but tho Drooklyn
boy retorted with right nnd left, only to bo
met with a swing on the Jaw which sont
him on bin back. He Jumped to hts fect
Immediately and went at Ills opponent

forcing him to Ills knees. Corbett got up
Hnd tho round ended In ono of tho hottest
mixes on record, with honors nbout even.

Round 2 McGovern rushed In with a loft
to the body and tho men clinched. A
rapid exchange of rights and lefts fol
lowed. Corbett wns on tho defensive and
met Terry's rushes with straight jabs.
Suddenly ho brought up his left, upper
cutting McGovern and sending lilm to the
tloor. McOovern took five seconds of the
count nnd cume back like n wlldman with
left and right swings. Science was thrown
to the winds nnd the hoys began slugging,
McGovern was very wild and they made
a half circle of tho ring righting In this
manner.
At .this) stnge It looked like anybody's
fight, should one of tho vicious blows land.
Corbett kept his bend and seemed to bore
In better; his body bloww wcro apparently
no stirrer than thotw of his opponent; how
ever, he kept on forcing McOovern half
across the ring and finally Terry forgot
his defense. He simply saw a hurricane
of blows coming townrd him and there
was no guarding on his part. Suddenly a
right, swinging uppercut landed squarely
on the point of his Jaw and McGovern wi-nt
down nnd out. He was rendered uncon
scious, but It was evident to all preient
that he knew the championship hud taken

(From a Stnff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 28.-(Spcclal Telegram.)
wguteen to ten was tho result of tho
game which gavo tho Cornhuskers tho
championship of tho states of Nebraska,
Kansas nnd Missouri this afternoon.
It was a spectacular nnd fiercely fought
contest. Throughout tho first half, defeat
ror the Nobrnsktttw seemed Inevitable. Tho
Indian braves kept piling over tho Ne
braska lino and tho playing was all one
sided. Tho visitors had tho wind, novoral
inopportune fumbles and two qiiestlSnablo
decisions In their favor, but whllo nil these
contributed to their success that half, their
playing was admittedly superior to that of
tho Nebraskans.
Hut thero wns a declslvo chnnae In tho
second half nnd in whirlwind fashion tho
CornhUBkors smashed tho Indians' strong
defense for long nnd sensatlounl gains.
Plllsbury, Hell nnd Render onch crossed tho
line for a touchdown nnd thrco goals wero
kicked by. Drain.
Tho Indians showed marvelous strength
In tho lino nnd In this single department
was Nebraska's only weaknefs. Compara
tively llttlo dlstanco was made around tho
ends, but on straight line bucking moat of
the ground was made.
Tho game was ono of the most stirring
nnd enthusing exhibitions of foot bnll over
witnessed on tho Nebraska campus. It
meant much to both teams and both fought
with a determination seldom seen.
Tonight tho champions aro being ban
quoted nt the Lincoln hotel by tho Uni
versity Athletic board. Tho ovent today
was tho climax of the most successful sea
son over experienced by a Nebraska team
and tho hospitality of the board knows no
restrictions against tho men who carried
tho scarlet and cream on to victory.
.e,hrnxUa Winn Toss.
Nebraska won tho toss and at 2:35 'tho
pigskin was carried Into tho center of the
field for a klckoff of thirty-Ova yards by
Drain. Tho Indian who caught tho ball
wns downed in his tracks, but In tho first
play tho CornhUHkcrs wero backed down
tho field for a dlstanco of thrco yards. On
tho second down tho Nebraskans recovered
tho ball on n fumblo and then began a series
of tprrlflc and effective lino bucks nnd end
runs, but In tho first attempts tho distance
gained was but slight. Then five yards
was gained through tho Indians' left end.
Tho playing of both teams was fast and
furious, but. tho Indlnns took a decided
brace against tho Cornhuskers' onslaughts
uml recovered the ball' whu.r It irni. wl:hlii
ten yards of their goal. A straight dash
through Nebranka's ccntor gavo tho In
dians flvo yards, Nebraska's defenso crum
bling awny In front of tho Indians as they
concentrated their energies nt tho ono
point. A slight but temporary lujury to
Captain Westover, from which ho quickly
recovered, gavo tho Cornhuskers a clmnco
to recuperate, and in tho next down tho
Indians wero forced backwurds with tho
ball. A punt then took tho ball twouty
yards into Nebraska's territory and Drain
carried it back half that distance. Tho
first down the dlmlnutlvo quarter, Ralph
Drain, took tho ball, eluded his pursuers
and advanced around tho Indians' left end
for olght yards. Tho Indiana Rocmed un
able to withstand the torrlllo work of the
Nebraskans, who kept gaining steadily, but
an unlucky fumblo lost tho bail to tho
visitors and Nebraska was again on the
dofenBlvo, ten yards from tho center of tho
field, anl ir. tho Indians' territory.
Across Nchrnakn'a Gonl Line.
The ball wns carried a short dlstanco
over tho centor line and falling to got dis
tance In two downs the Indians made a
long pant, low but swift, straight down
the field and across Nebraska's goal line,
Plllsbury, who was playing far back of the
Nebraska line, was hot after tho bail, but
missed It by several yards, and It sped on
Its course untouched. A Nebraska man
caught it, however, and mndo a touchback.
The ball was kicked back forty yards, nnd
falling to get distance an downs n goal
from tho field wnB attempted by Fallls, tho
Indian right half, resulting successfully.
The ball passed directly botweon the ppsts
and was as clean a gonl ns was over seen on
the Nebrnskn field, kicked from a distance
of forty yards, and scoring tho Indians flvo
points.
Nebraska kicked off Into tho Indians' ter
ritory, but recovered tho ball through a
fumblo In the second down. Then Coach
Booth's alwuys reliable and offcctlvo
double-pass trick was put Into operation.
Drain took the ball and was far around the
Indlnns' right end before, they had recov
ered from the surprise, gaining nbout
twenty yards by the maneuver. Tho rooters
and all tho spectators Joined In a tumultuous
cheer and tho Cornhuskers came quickly
into position again to continue the ndvance.
Rut 111 luck again played havoc with them.
A fumblo gave an Indian tho ball nnd a
clear flold. hut ho wns downed aftor a short
run. Again the Indian got around Nebras
ka's right end for a gain of ten yards ba
tons ho was downed Just outside of the sldo
line. The next two downs failed to give tho
Indians any headway and a punt for sixty
yards was made, taking the ball twenty-flvo
yards into tho Nebraska territory. Drain
caught the pigskin, but tho Indians wcro
upon blm and ho was downed after advanc
ing a few yards.
Goal Attain In Dmiuer.
Still another fumble, this ono by Bell,
gavo the rcdrocn tho ball nnd it was car
ried ten yards nearer the Nobrnska goal.
On tho next down tho Indians were penal
lied ten yards for offside, leaving the ball
twenty-flvo yards directly in front of tho
goal. Bain, the Indian right tackle, was
given the ball and kicked a clear goal from
tho field, which brought the score up to 10
points.
Nebraska again kicked off from tho center
and after one down, which resulted unsuc
cessfully, tho Indians kicked forty-five yards
Into the Negraska territory, hut wero po
nallied the entire distance for holding, thus
bringing tho ball back to tho point whore
the punt was made. The Cornhuskers par
tially regained their lost spirits, straight
ened up their defense, and forced tho In
dians to resort to puntlnj, which gavo the
Nebraskans, the ball Just beyond tho center
of the field, but In their own territory,
rillsbury went straight through tho solid
lino of redmen for a gain of five yards. For
the first tlmo since the struggle begnn an
Indian was Injured, but aftor a sympathetic

HELD FOR LINCOLN MURDER
C. I!. lleyrood Arrested nt llnvelock
In Connection M-llh John J.
lilllllun's Uenth.
(From a Stnff Correspondent.)
MNCOI,N, Nov. 28. (Special Telegram.)
Dctcctivo Mnlonn tonight nrrcsted C. H.
Heywood at Hnvclock on suspicion of being
implicated in the m,irdr of John J., atlli
In. 'TW. jnp;i.'lH'Jall Vndor. tho chfirire of
burglary, but it Is announced that tho
county nttornoy will assume control of the
caso tomorrow and file the necessary com
plaint to bring him to trial if he thinks the
evidence at hand will Justify htm In bo
doing.
According to tho story told by tho police
Heywood and n man named GeorgeV ArnoM
arrivod in Lincoln two days boforo tho mur
der and engaged a room in a downtown
tenement. They frcquontcd saloonsand
other resorts nnd wero socn In company
with known criminals. Tho night of the
murder, prior, to 9 p. in,, the men were
seen in eevernl saloons, but after the tlmo
mentioned their whereabouts had not been
accounted for until they wero both found
camping a few days later on tho stato farm
ucar tho city. Their room wns not oecu
pjed tho night of the tragedy. Arnold was
arrested nnd kept In Jail sixty days, but he
denied any knowledgo of the affair. His
pal, Heywood, eHcapcd arrest and the police
have been on his trail ever since. The evi
dence ngalnat Arnold was alight and he was
released.
Arnold and Heywood have both served
terms in tho penitentiary. Tho former is
a civil war veteran and the latter a young
man of 28, for a short time a mechanic cm
ployed in the Havolock shops.
"Tho oillllan murder Is solved," said De
tective Malone, "nnd the legal authorities
now have tho caso In their own hands. I
do not know what course the county at-,
torney will pursue, but I presume a com
plaint will bo filed charging Heywood with"
murder. We don't know whero Arnold Is
nnd don't care, for wo believe that Hey
wood Is tho nwn responsible for the crime."
Arnold wns Hiirprlied by the detective
while he was visiting relatives at Havolock.
He was told ho was wanted on a burglary
charge and no mention was mndo of tho real
suspicion that rested against him. Tho
police authorities insist that the murder of
Glllllnn wss the, result of an attempted
holdup nnd havo worked on this theory
practically to the exclusion gf all others.

Crelathtnn University II, Lincoln
Medics O.
Four thousand people voiced their ex
ultation at the double victory of Omaha foot
bnll teams nt Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation park yesterday and tho youth of ths
city wus loose in wild demonstration last
night, for both tho teams of locnl gridiron
athletes had won and tho dual achievement
was one to bo duly celebrated..
Six to 0 was tho scoro by whlrh th
Crelghton university team defeated tho
Lincoln Medics, and tho Omaha High achool
lads wero victorious over the Genoa In
dians by a score of 11 to C. Tho fact Hint
both games wero so close helped to mako
the occasion most memorable In Omaha fool
ball circles.
It wan a great crowd that attended this,
tho culminating ovcut of the foot ball
season for the two big Omaha teams great
In every particular. Tho grandstand wa
packed, both aides of the field nud both
ends were n mass of spectators, behind tho
crowd on tho north side wcro many car
riages and to top It all the row of high
trees Just outsldo nnd to tho cast wero bout
far earthward under a lood of youthful
human fruit. Both games wero so closo that
every sympathizing heart was nn i strain
till tho clode. Not till the last half mlnuto
of play did tho High school boys snatoh
a victory and thtro wns but ono touchdown
and a gonl between the Crelghton team and
tho doctors when tlmo was called.
Prnreedlnira Arc IliislncHsllUe.
Probably the most coinmcndnbla feature
of tho enflro contest, because of Its novelty,
was thn smoothness with which tin
machinery of the management worked, A
host of Omahnna was out to spend Iti
holldsy and the time was not exhausted
with futile qulbbllngs and delays In 'getting
i nuits. ta rr'o: rtnr-pjVpyf fcrofls;, u iifpol
tsvlng bofh gnmcs of iwsuty-ttve-ralrjute
halves was abandoned and ns n consequence
It was still broad daylight when tho event
ended, with tho clocks only ktrlklng (Ho
hour of S.
Just before tho game occurred ri little in
cident that was one of tho prettiest features
of tho afternoon,' An opon cnrrlago entered
the gate nnd rolled up along tho north side
of tho field. In It sat n boy with dnrk curl
ing hair and a rnther pnlo face. It was n
long caring across that field, but tho oyes
of tho Omaha High school youths In tho
grandstand woro kecno enough for It, nnd It
did not take them long to herald tho visi
tor. "Coryell! Coryell! Coryoll!" fthey
screamed and in a moment tbo whole 'field
had taken up tho cry. It was, Indeed, tho
High school halfback, sufficiently recovered
to attend the last game of the season and
bco his teammates victorious for the last
time. From then on "What's thn matter
with Coryoll?" was as often voiced as any
other slogan, and tho rcsponsn alwnys came
with a will. Tho boy'a father and mother
were with him. N
Of nil the forty-seven players who strug
gled and strained on tho field thero was
Just one man who stood out from all thu
rest ns of plainly dlffs'ront class nnd clay.
Many stars thero wero, but only ono Por
ter, and the wonderful little Indian full
back was tho causo of many a short breath
In the forty minutes that ho played foot
ball. In tho very first mlnuto of thn Omahn
Indian ga, ho executed a coup of thn
in oh t billllniii older, making a dodging run
on a klckoff through tho entire field for
thirty yards that then nnd there stamped
his work ns phenomenal. Nor did he let
tho standard lower. Every play brought
out more of his nbllltles, nnd when the
wholo affair wns ended, every discussion
of tho afternoon invariably roverted to Por
ter and closed with tho words: "Hut my,
that fullbacK'."
Porter la a Good Indian.
Tortor is not so big, for many of his
mates are larger. He weighs only 169
pounds with hts foot ball togs on, and
stands about five feet, seven inches. Nor
is he experienced In the garpo, for it was
only three years ago that "Quowczentz," ns
hU Chippewa parents named him, wns liv
ing in tho northern woods of Minnesota In
a wigwam nil tho year 'round, knowing no
word of English, and for sustenance de
pending upon the lnkes in tho summer and
tho forests in the winter. Hut fate nnd
an ambitious father sent thn boy to Genoa
and now nt the age of 1!), although he la
only in the common grades us a scholar,
"Quewezentz" is capable of playing a game
at fullback the like of which has never
been seen in Nebrnskn. It is not only that
he starts llko n shooting star, that ho runs
like a deer, that ho dodges like a rabbit,
that he tackles llko a low-hung flying ma
chine, that he crawls and slides and slips
like an eol, that hn plunges like n batter
ing ram and that ho hurdles like a hunter.
Thero was something olso about the silent
little Scott Porter. There was some In
definnblo air nbout htm that made him n
captain whether he had been one or not,
that stamped blm a leader, that mado his
men bang to him like leeches and support
him like legions of chivalry. Was It fear
lessness?e Was U hypnotism? Whatever
It was, thn quality would make him a place
on any team in the country today.
Lumlnarlra Xot In the Constellation.
Stellar attractions of a different variety
were Count Crelghton and Mayor Moores,
When the wblKtle for the start of the drat
gamo was about to sound these two gen
tlemen appeared upon tho field amid loud
huzzas, Tho count then proceeded to kick
off for fully four yards, at which Mayor
Moores seized tho ball and returned It to
tho center, when ho booted it In the othor
direction. This formality ovor and the
people satisfied that all waa squaro and
abnvn board, tha ronl games began,
Thn Crelghton team and tho Medics
played two llfteon-mlnuto halves, Th
