FRANKLIN FIELD, Oct. 23. Pitt de
feated Penn, 11 to, this afternoon, but
the result was almost as good an a vic
tory for renn. as no one expected Penn
to hold the powerful Pitt" eleven to such
close score.
Pitt played far below IU normal gnmf,
but that should .leiraht no credit from
l'enn, whp put up a morp aggressive and4
g;ama- battlo from, start to tlnUli. The
Quakers played ilko'R new team, and'
there was hnrdli- a minute when Pitt was
nit woirled.
In the closing minute's ot the game Penn
outplayed Glenn, Warner's team, scoring
ltsouehdojvn one miliute'before time was

tlcally every man on the Penn team
showed better than was hoped.
The tackling of the lied and. Blue team
was superior to any for seVer'al seasons,
and the (leYce. aggressive manner was
Inrgely responsible for the Pitt's backs
many fumbles.
Today was the make or break day for
the Itpd and lllue, and the team came
back In wonderful shape. At the end of
the tlrst half they looked tired -and leg
weary, but barring a few moments In the
eeoorjd half, when the .wonderful De Hart
ran the ends at v!l Penn played stronger
fnotball than Pitt.

WASHINGTON, Oci
Somewhere off the Florida coast the
United States, revenue cutter Miami is
'In hot pursuit of the steamship Zealan
dla this afternoon, . according to confi
dential reporta to the' Department of
Justice.
,' The Zealandla Is alleged to be manned
'by a German crew, among whom aro
the Germans who escaped from the In
terned cruiser Kronprlnz Wilhelm at Nor
folk, Va. Agents of the Department of
Justice earlier today had reported that
they had received Information that the
Zealandla Is to be used as a commerce
raider by tho Germans.
It waa stated at the' Department of Jus
tice this afternoon that If any of the men
who escaped, from Norfolk nre found
aboard t lie Kealandla they will be prose
cuted on charges of piracy, which is pun
ishable by death, '
The Kenltindia discharged It's regular
crew at IV-nsacola, and shipped a crew1
(made up entirely of Germans, Govern
mc'iit agents reported.
Tho Zrtalandla ostensibly was to' go to
.Tamplco and get a"' cargo o foil. Krom
Tiimplco It was reported today that the
'vessel has not arrived there, though suftl
clcnt time- has elapsed for her to com
plete the voyage.
The clue to the Zealaudla'a disappear
ance was furnished to tho New York
customs otllclals by K. W. Strceter, a ship
broker, who said he had recelvod his In
formation from the engineer ot the Teasel.
The corroboration of Street's report, of
flolals here declare, means that a Xierman
pirate ship Is abroad, subject to capture
by Any vessel able to effect It, and with
hanging awaiting all of the crew.
