Klrby, chairman of tile advisory committee of the Intenvolleglute Association of Amateur Athletes of America, shows' that a meeting of college athletes representing ail of America against a similar representation for Great Britain during the Olympio games In London In July is impossible. It Is intimated, however, that a meeting be tween tbe athlete of Harvard and Yale and those Of Cambridge and Oxford la likely this summer. The correspondence includes letters from C. N. Jackson of Oxford and J. H. Gray of Cttnibrldgevjtnd Mr. Klrby s reply. Writing under date of February 7 Messrs. Jackson and Gray say that the English committee's negative decision was "influ enced by many reasons, amongut others by the insufficient time now remaining at the disposal or Oxford and Cambridge, under whose direction in conjunction with Lord Dcsborough the selection of British representatives was to be made; by the Impossibility of satisfactorily ascertaining, within such limits, what athletes might be bat qualified In the different parts of the British, empire to be selected as rep resentatives for their special excellence In special departments of track athletics, also by the danger of a congestion of meetings and consequent failure of interest in some cases In July, 190s a month which already has its own special international gather ing at the Olympic games besides the amateur athletic championsnips, and may witness the previously suggested reticence of an old established meeting of Oxford and Cambridge versus Harvard and Yale at Queen's club." Acknowledging the receipt of the letter of declination Mr. Kirby replied: , ' noted with pleasure that July, 1908, may witness the previously suggested rocurreuco of the old established meeting of Oxford and Cambridge versus Harvard and 1 ale at Muenn s club; It Is regretted that to th athletes from Yale and Har vard there could not be added others, who. being selected by the I. C. A. A. A. A would necessarily conform to the same high standard of amateurism, scholastic attainments and athletic ability. " The difficulties attending the selection or th teams and the arrangements of the meet would of course be great; It la re gretted that to you they seem insuperable." PROGRESS IS BIG ALTO RACE ERIE.

SUITS ABE ' FILED rie of Not Oollty Is Fntrreet to Two t barges of Grnnd Larceny nnal Cases Are ton- finned. NEW YORK, Feb. 18,-The legsn n tanglements of Charles W. Morse, former banker and rromoter, are multiplying. A third indictment, alleging perjury by Mr. Morse during n examination by the grand Jury, was TOund by the special grand Jury yesterday, a short time after he had appeared tn court to answer the two Indict ments found against him last week charg ing him with grand larceny. Arrange ments were mado tonight to have nlm appear tomorrow before Justice Victor J. Dowllng of the ori.jnal branch of the supreme court to pleu'd to the perjury Indictment. Another turn 111 the ase to day was the serving on Philip J. Brill, counsel for Mr. Morse, of summonses In two actions brought against the former banker. The complaints In these suits have not yet been filed, but It was ex plained that they relate to stock trans actions which occurred some time ago. When arraigned before Justice Dowllng, Morse pleaded not guilty. Judge Dowllng set next Monday a the date for further hearing. ' Explanation of Attorney. After his return to his office Mr. Morse's attorney, Philip J. Britt, made a statement vcmcernlng the transaction upon which the larceny Indictment tost. He said: The statement that there was a writ ten agreement between Ml. Morse ftd ,Mr. O'Brien that the notes should not ne uiitniunii'u if. mine. jneie was an iec ment that the notes should be renewed for a period of three years, but there was no agreement that the notes should not be discounted. If the notes were to be continued for a period of three years and were not to be discounted during that period It would practically make them worthless as security to he con verted In case of need during that time. What Mr. Morse did make himself re sponsible for was that if tho note passed out of his hands during tho period in which he said that the notes should be renewed he would be leHponslhle to see that they should be renewed, 110 matter In whose hands they happened to be at that time. With this understanding of the agreement ther can be no question sr to the fairncas of Mr. Morse's aetTTm In getting the notes discounted. If the check with which the discounted note was paid was made out In tho name of Mr. O'Brien, to whom was tho money due7 To Mr. Morse, of course. It was In payment for atock delivered by Mr. Morse that the notes were made. So If the check In payment for the noto we, made out technically In the name of STr. O'Brien, whose name was on the noto, it was really meant for Mr. Morse, to whom the note had been assigned. There are a lot of , facta In connection with this rase which have not yet come out and which will, put an entirely different aspect on It than ha so far appeared from what has been published about it. Mr. Brltt said he did not yet know whether he would Interpose a demurrer to the Indictments. His legal action would depend on a study of the grand Jury min utes, for which h Intended to sfiply. After leaving th court room Mr. Morse went to hi office and was soon In con sultation ' with former business allies re garding his entangled affairs. It was while so engaged that news waa brought tfr him that another Indictment alleging perjury had been found. For th moment ho had no comment to make. It was . arranged that he should appear In court tomorrow morning to answer the new charge. This course was decided on because Mr. Morse Is already under 230,000 bonds, and he sig nified his willingness to appear whenever wanted. Basis of Perjury Charge. The perjury Indictment, It was learned, Is based upon a loan obtained last Septem ber by E. R. Thomas from the Bank of North America, of which Morse was then vice president. In testifying before the spe cial grand Jury, Thomas told about tho loan, which was one of $60,000. Alfred H. Curtis, then president of the bank, also testified to the fact that the loan was made, Mr. Morse, who had been before the grand Jury, was recalled and asked if such a loan "had been made. It is alleged that he denied that the money had been loaned to Thomas. Thomaa was again summoned and this time. It Is further al leged, produced a letter which Morse Wrote recommending the loan. Later Mr. Morse again appeared before the grand Jury at his own request, and It waa explained that he wished to correct hi testimony. This he Is said to'have done, and this testimony I said to have squared with what had been learned from other witnesses. It Is pointed out, however, that the law I such that corrected testimony before a grand jury may be made a basis for a charge of perjury. y NEBRASKA FROM DAY TO DAY ijnalnt and Carious Feature of Life in a Rapidly Urewltg State.

His appointment to this posi tion refutes the report' that'the Northwest ern had gone out of the loan business In Nebraska. - . Regarding the rumor that the Northwest ern had abandoned the Nebraska field, Mr. Stephenson said:. "That story must fiav started last fall, when the banks through out the country suspended currency pay ments, and the Northwestern, temporarily ceased making loans. But It ha since re sumed and Is now receiving application and making loan at 6V per cent Interest on approved farms, and city real estate. The Northwestern has always had a very high opinion of Nebraska's future and it securities and has no Idea of abandoning; the field, but , on the contrary, It will make an aggressive effort, particularly covering the farm loan - business. ' Th company's loaning business In Omaha will be carefully looked after by - competent men and expedited quite a well from Lin coln as from Omaha. The Northwestern' purpose In changing Its headquarters to Lincoln Is merely to locate nearer the cen ter of the farm loan field, because w think the work of conducting the office and covering- the field- can be don with less expense from Lincoln than from Omaha."
