The Associated Press la authorized to an nounce that not the slightest information has been received at the War office regard ing the serious Illness or resignation of General Kouropatkln. On the contrary the War office's information Indicates no change whatever in the headquarters staff in Manchuria and that the departure of General Grippenburg for St. Petersburg Is dua to illness. The version of the departure of General Orlppenberg now given In the best informed unofficial circles Is that the general left the front because he exceeded General Kouropatkln's orders in pushing beyond Sandepas and needlessly sacrificed thous ands ot men. This led Kouropatkin to de mand Grippenberg's recall. General Hamilton Leaves. GENERAL. OKU'S HEADQUARTERS, Feb. 6. (Via Fusan.)

Otia Skinner's appearance at the Boyd thla evening should be welcomed as one of the really greaT occasions In the local the atrical year, for he cornea with what has been generally conceded to be one of the triumphs, not alone of his career, but of the American stage of late years. "The Harvester," In which Mr. Skinner Is ap pearing, is adapted from the French of Jean Rlchepin, the original, "Le Chemi neau," being a great "success in Paris. Ita translator has preserved the original color to a great extent by laying the scene In Canada, and haa thus given the characters a piquancy somewhat akin to those of Rlchepin. Mr. Skinner brings to the role of the gypsy wanderer, whose conduct causes the complications, thopo traits of character that make the role seem like his, own from the beginning.1 The company supporting him is a strong one. and the advantages offered by the locale have been fully taken by the scenic artists, so that the production is universally good.

TALK OF ATHLETICS AT AMES Base Ball Players, Track Team and Tennis Flayers Ready for Work. AMES, la., Feb. 6 (Special.) Prospects in the athletic field at Iowa State College at this time of the season are encouraging. There Is a good spirit manifested among the students and it now seems probable that Ames will be in the ring this season when the time for the events arrives. No one Is over confident but nevertheless all have a determined spirit to make as good a showing in athletics this year ns possible. Concerning the different sports some of the leaders have expressed themselves fav orably, i In regard to the base ball situation Professor Beyer says: "Negotiations re garding schedules are In an extremely un settled state. For the present we wish to Impress on the mind of every base ball candidate the necessity of training and the Increasing of speed. We want a speed ier team than ever before and must have it." ' IK IT. F. Anthonv, whli 1 the base ball mana ger, said: "The .salieclule la tint yet com pleted and the schedules for the entire state is In a very Indefinite condition' owing to Iowa's refusal to toke any action what ever. Iowa .Is endeavoring to keep Brown oft our team without penalizing another plaver In the state, but he will undoubtedly be ' allowed to play, but will not stand alone in -any case.. As to dates we have games scheduled with Cedar Rapids for April 10 to 14 Inclusive and negotiations now In progress wtll prnbsHy Secure Boone for the week following. We will have at least two games outside the state with schools' of high standing. In case a dtiil meet Is held at Iowa we will probably p'ay bsee ball there In the morning. Further than this there Is nothing to sny." In regard to track athletics Jack Wat son Is very hopeful, but as this Is his first year here he says that he can only judge bv the largn amount of material on hand. He savs that the mon on the 'var sity squad are all showing an unusual amount of enthusiasm and It is only a question of when the training shed Is fin ished as to the time they start to train. They have not many stars but a number of good one end he thinks they will round up a good track team with the available material. The only star on the team is Cave and it is doubtful If he can throw the discus. The injury to his ankle will keep him clear out of the running events. A valu able addition to the squad will be Tener, who hn- decided to coe out nnd train. The tennis team will try and hold up Its past enviable record and there nro good prospects of them doing It If the team will e nly get down to hard work.

In a fast and snappy game of basket ball plaved at the Auditorium last evening the Young Men's Christian association team defeated the Ottumwa Young Men's Chris tian association team by a score of 3 to 2S. In the first half the team from Ottumwa clearly outplayed the locjU boys and their team work In this half was of a high claos. Both teams played a rough game and were penalized time and again for holding and rough play. Neither team had a man who was able to throw a goal from the foul linn more than once out of three trials, this being true In particular of the Ottumwa boys. Clark for the Omaha team threw the only field goal made by that team In the first half. Hansen and G.

Their team work was excel lent and undoubtedly the best that has been seen In this city for a long time. O. Willard nnd Hansen wi again the stars for their team In this half, each throwing two Held goals and doing good work other wise. Dlngeman was the star for the Ottumwas and undoubtedly saved his team from a worse defent than they received.

Willard (C).... for ward Dlngeman Clark forward Nelson Hanen center Bamsell (Cl C. Willard guard Buckner Anderson guard Johnson Alfred Swan of Lincoln officiated as referee and Dr. Wallace as umpire.

The much-talked-of wrestling match be tween Clurence English, the prize fighter, and Patsy Cannon, the wrestler, ended In a fiasco at Washington hall last evening. After twenty-two minutes of wrestling and what might be termed fighting, Sergeant Gibbons of the police department stopped the fight, or rather the wrestling match, and sent the combatants to their dressing rooms. When the police official ended the match the house was In an uproar, the supporters of both contestants yelling "Foul!" Doubtless the hundred who paid their $1 per were fully repaid, for the contest was an exciting one, either from a wrestling standpoint or otherwise. After an hour and a half of wrangling over the selection of a referee the contest was finally started with Peter Loch and Harry Crotch, managers of the wrestlers, as Joint referees. At 10:32 English and Cannon took the mat and for ten minutes gave a pretty exhibition of wrestling. But after that the proceedings waxed warmer and warmer until bad blood manifested Itself with the result mentioned. Table Rock Defeats Tecumaeh. TABLE ROCK, Feb. 6.
