Uls Version of the Cause of the- Trouble,
Deed of the Saran ion Franchise
to U. P. Simpson Acknowl
- - dgod in Court.
President Powers,- of the Eastern
BaBe Ball League, said yesterday to an
Interviewer in New York city that the
people of Scranton need nave no fear
that the Eastern League franchise will
be-taken away from here.
"The case In a nutshell Is this," said
Mr. Powers: "President Betts secured
a Judgment for $1,800 against the club
for money advanced lor salaries and
other obligations. At the sheriff's sale
the club franchise was bought In by a
lawyer for Mr. Betts, who afterwards
sold It to H. P. Simpson for $2,181.' In
addition to this, Mr. Simpson assumed
a note for $800 and agreed to pay $316
of back salaries.
"This deal will be approved of at the
Eastern cLague meeting next month.
but In the meantime the Eastern League
directors, for their own protection, as
sumed the franchise for the non-payment
of salaries and so secured Its re
maining In the EaBtern League.
M ant n Shore of tho Money.
"The trouble Is," continued Mr. Pow
ers, "while the club was in financial
straits there were some directors who
rendered no assltance, but now that
there Is money- In Klgut they are very
much in evidence, to claim their share.
There will be an amicable settlement at
Scranton, I am sure, but If not, the mat
ter will-be fully adjusted at our annual
meeting."'
President Powers also said that he
had Just received a letter from M. H.
McDermott. of Fall Rlver.the new man
ager for the Scrapton club, tn which he
stated that he was signing good players

Deed Ack.nowtedccd to Mr. Simpson.
When. Sheriff Clemons appeared In
court yesterday to have the deeds ac
knowledged of properties' he' had sold
according to writs issued from the pro
thonotary's office the deed of the fran
chise and leasehold Interest of the
Scranton Base' Ball association was
about to be acknowledged to Harry P.
Simpson, who purchased them for the
sum of $2,180.60. when Attorney I. H.
Burns, representing E.j -J. Coleman,
arose and objected on the ground that
the property sold was personal nron.
erty and there Is no authority, of law
lor .ino snerin: 10 mage or acknowledge
a deed for personnl property; also that
the property was not described.
Attorneys R. J. Murray, George S.
Horn, and ex-Congressman A merman,
representing Mr.. Simpson, opposed At
torney Burns' objections; they argued
that the deed covered real property.
Judge Archbald overruled the excep
tions. The deed was entered of record
In the office of Prothonotary Pryor and
made out to Mr. Simpson. It was Im
mediately recorded In the office of Re
corder of Deeds Huester.
It Is said that Mr. Burns Intends
making application again ta court In

TO-MORROW'S BIG GAME.
Preparing for the Great Tussle Between
Ptinceton and Yale.
New York, Nov. 21. From the great
Interest taken In the Tale-Princeton
foot ball game, which is to be played at
Manhattan Field Saturday afternoon,
one Is much reminded of the Thanks
giving games pt, former years. The
city will be lively with college colors,
and probably not less than three thous
and college students will come from
various 'varsities to see the game.' This
means cheers and life. '
Both teams are reported In good con
dition and confident. In consequence,
the betting now being done is entirely
on an even money basis. The teams
will probably go afield even favorites.
Indeed, there are reports that Princeton
Is offering more money than Yale Is
taking, dollar for dollar. To show Just
what Interest there Is In the big game,
It Is only necessary to say that every
seat In the covered stand and every box
has been sold; the boxes were sold, In
fact before the public sale took place.
Yesterday the committee placea bh sale
the balance of the tickets, and never be
fore was there such a rush to procure
them.
Princeton and Yale have played an
nually since 1878: this belns- tho wnM-
etn annual game.
it is almost an assured fnrt that iu

it was learned today that some of the
admission tickets were obtained.
captain Lea will play with his foot
ball team against Yale Saturday. This
means mucn 10 mnceton, as he Is a
tower of strength and a great source
of encouragement to the Tigers. There
is now no concealing the- fact that
Princeton has Improved to such an ex
tent during the past week or ten days
that she will send a team worthy of
Old Nassau into the field agafnst her
old-time rival. Wonderful strides have
been made toward perfecting the eleven
In every way and there Is not today a
weak spot in the whole team.
There are various reports regarding
the condition of Yale's team. - All that
Is known publicly Is that well-posted
students are anxious to bet even money
on the result, but may give odds. later

girl fell fainting on the floor.
