ALL BLACKS IN VANCOUVER.
TRAGIC ENDING TO GAME WITH VICTORIA. (By Cable—Prcee Association.—Copyright) (Received November 23rd, 12.20 a.m.) VANCOUVER. November 22. New Zealand defeated Victoria by 35 points to nil. Ogden, the homo team's full-back, just before the final whistle, while being tackled by a New Zealander, fell, and was unable to rise. Ho was carried off unconscious, and died in a few minutes. It was thought at first that he had received concussion of the brain, but a medical examination showed that he suffered from heart weakness, and his collapso was due to excitement.
The referee declared that tho New Zalander had not transgressed tho rules in any way whatever, and the occurrence was purely accidental. The New Zcalandcrs are likely to fulfil their remainiing engagement*.
