EIGHT PLAYERS | ARE INDICTED | | For "Throwing" Last Year's| World icago | White Sox Disgraced. | Chicago, Sept. 29 --Indictments | were voted against eight baseball | stars yesterday and confessions ob- | tained from two of them when the 0ld Roman," Charles A. Comiskey, owner of the oft-time champion Chicago White' Sox, smashed his pennant chasing machine to clean up baseball. Confessions told how the Sox threw last year's world's | champlonship to Cincinnati for | money pald by a syndicate of profes- sional gamblers. | Seven Sox regulars and one form- | er player comprise the players against whom true bills were voted by the Cook county grand jury, and seven were immediately suspended | by Mr. Comiskey. With hig team only one game behind the league- | leading Clevelanders, the White Sox owner served notice on his seven tars that if they were found guilty @ would drive them out of organ- ged baseball for the rest of their ves.

Joseph Jackson, out- fielder, also admitted that a New York - Philadelphia - Chicago-Cleve- land syndicate of professional gamblers had paid him $5,000 for his participation in the shameful conspiracy. The syndlcaté, which have operated largely in various professional sports, invaded the field of baseball for the first time last season. Several games were under suspicion during the season. Lee Magee, of the Chicago Nation- als, and Hal Chase and "Heinle" Zimmerman, of the New York Na- tionals, were discarded by. their clubs during the winter, and sought in vain for an explanation of the action of club owners. Men promi- nent in baseball as owners and offi- | cials of major league clubs and the league themselves were given cause | for suspicion that all was not right | with the game during the present season. They caused an investiga- tion to be made by the Cook county | "grand jury in Chicago, with the re- sult that confessions were wrung | from Cicotte and Jackson with re- gard to the world series of 1919, and six other players of the Chi- | cago Americans have been indicted. | | | is said to --h 0 e Daily British KINGSTON, ONTARIO, REPRISALS NOT CONNIVED AT London, Sept. 29.--Reprisals in Ireland are neither connived at nor supported by the government, it was declared yesterday by Sir Hamar Green- wood, chief secretary for Ire- land. Sir Hamar made his statement in reply to a storm of criticism which has been raised in the British press over the recent declafatiom--ef Gen- eral Sir Neville Macready, com- mander of the military forces' in Ireland. TRAIN SERVICE CHANGE Yarker Travel to Come to Kingston Via Napanee Atter October 3rd. Judging from the talk of many | wuo reside about Yarker, section for years has been served by the Bay Quinte railroad, later taken over by the Canadian Northern, the proposed change in the service is not satisfactory to them. It is the intention of the Canadian people which National Railroads on October 3rd | to have the train, which formerly came from Yarker to Kingston by way of Harrowsmith over the track ol the Canadian Pacific railroad, to go, round by way of Napanee. On Monday afternoon, a represen- | tative of the Whig who was in Enter- prise, Moscow and Yarker, learned from the people that they believed this change would be very unsatis- factory to them. They claim that the change would mean that the freight rates, which at the present time are very high, would be creased and also the passenger rates | The people claim that if the train goes by way of Napanee it will niean that many people who formerly did their shopping in Kingston will 80 to Napanee, meaning financial loss to Kingston merchants, M .C.

At the present time the morn- ing train leaves Yarker at 9.15 a.m. and goes to Harrowsmith over the] main line of the Canadian National railroad and then transfers to he track of the Canadian Pacific-Tail- road. This train is due to arfive in | Kingston at 10.45 a.m. Op"account of it being a mixed train, that is a train which carries both freight and passengers, a great deal of time is lost in handling freight at the dif- ferent stations, meaning that the train was nearly always late. Ac- cording to the change in the Nap- anee rate it will mean that the train from Yarker, which will be purely a local train not. carrying freight, will leave Yarker at 8.45 a.m!

More Indictments: Chicago, Sept. 29. ---Indictments 8gainst five or six gamblers were ' tonsidered to-day by the Cook ceunty and jury investigating the '"'throw- ** of baseball games. Abe Attell, former featherweight champion, and Arnold Rothstein, New York, were said to have been involved in testi- mony presented to the grand jury. Attell, it was said, handled the mon- ey pald the "White Sox' players. More players may also be indicted.

Ned Finley was the Bill Hart of his day. For seventeen years he lived on an income that ranged between $1,000 and $2,000 a week. crease In Ohara : i In At Country Elevators Winnipeg, Sept. 29.--There will be no increase in country elevator elevation according to a de- cision given by the Board of Grain Commissioners for Canada. At termi- nal elevators, however, the elevation charge is increased to 13 c. The ele- wator men, at recent hearings, asked for incr charges for country elevator'operation and age. / TO CURE DIVORCE EVIL Re-Marriage The Only Effective Way. A the re-marriage of divorcees dur- the life of either party is the only éffective way to cure the div- J a evil", declared Supreme Court JuBtice Russell Benedict, in an opin- handed down here.

As far as the freight rates are con- cerned, Mr. Dunn stated that they would be just the same, but the pas- senger rate from Yarker would be twenty-five cents more. People residing in Camden East, and Newburg, who for years have been unable to get mail off the Pic- ton train which passed through each evening for reason of the fact that there was no mail clerk on the train, will now likely be served. PRISON GUARD IN TROUBLE Charged With Taking Mail Out for a Prisoner Named Alton. In police court on Wednesday morning, Joseph IL. Seabrook, a guard at the Portsmouth penitenti- ary, was.charged with taking mail out of the prison from a convict named Alton. The case was en- larged until Tuesday morning next, as the accused was unable to get a solicitor. Thé prisoner, who is mixed up in the case, was present to give evidence. Police Magistrate Farrell has no use for men who neglect to support their wives. John H. Deane, who was charged by his wife with not providing her with the necessities of lite, was ordered to hand over to his wife $15 at once, and $10 a week hereafter, or else go to jail for three months. The wife, in her evi- dence, stated that since August 28th Deane had only given her $5. Joseph LaRose, who said that he got drunk on liquor which he se- cured from some men he met in the lane of an hotel, was remanded for one day to refresh his memory. James Eaves said that he got "tight" on three bottles of lemon, which he got from local stores. He paid $10 and oosts. ! Eight Hour Day For Domestics.

London, Sept. 29.--Rumors of | widespread plots, which have ranged | from conspiracies to assassinate King | George to the blowing up of public | buildings, have been current in Lon- don during the past few days. These reports have caused the fear that the lives of public men in Great Britain might be jeopardized should any of | the Irish hunger strikers die, particu- | larly now that the "black and tan" | rolice have made reprisals in several Irish towns. | have investigated some of the more | i plausable stories and the newspapers | have run down many. more, always with the same negative result. | BOLSHEVIK] CANNOT | FIGHT THIS WINTER Escaped Polish Staff Officers Tell of Hardships in Russia's Army. Riga, Sept. 29.--If the reports of | two Polish staff officers who have Just escaped after two months cap- | tivity in Russia are believable, the Bolshevist army has no hope at present of renewing their offensive | with any prospect of success or of { undertaking a winter campaign against Poland. * The new levies which Trotsky has | mobilized are going to the front un- { armed and practically without train- | ing. Very little artillery is moving { toward the front to replace the heavy losses of the debacle in Po-- | land. | The troops are not equipped for a winter campaign, about a quarter of the rank and file being bootless and very few having overcoats. The sanitary service practically is non- existent, and the companies are { badly depleted by sickness. The | troops at the front have food, but behind the line the country has been stripped of provisions, the soldiers selling their boots and uniforms for bread. Even the peasants, who ordin- arily have- enough for their neces- sities, are on the shortest rations. STOCK MARKETS.

Several citizens have drawn the 'Whig's attention to the fact that they believed the attorney-general was not playing square with the smaller fairs. He allowed these games to take place at Toronto and Ottawa exhibitions, and then shut down on the smaller fairs like King- ston and Brockville.

FROM THE WORLD {A Gigantic Task to be Under- taken by the Rockefeller Foundation. Washington, Sept. 29.--The Rock- efeller Foundation, which recently discovered the germ of yellaw fever, has now undertaken the gigamitic | task of eradicating malaria from this country, and eventually from the entire world, according to announce- ment made here. -- Already it has succeeded in reduc- ing the prevalence of the disease sixty-seven per cent. through expen- diture of sixty cents per capita in | tour Arkansas towns. 1 "Malaria is a crippling and deadly | disease which' attacks or threatens | the 800,000,000 people who live with | in the zone of its influence,' | Foundation report. "Continued supervision in six Ar- kansas towns affords convincing proof that it costs a community ap- proximately a four-fold greater sum to harbor malaria than to banish it. As a consequence public funds for malaria control operations are now being appropriated faster than sani- | tarians can be found to do the | work."

London, Sept. 29.--Scotland Yard has frustrated a plot to blow up the Irish Office and the Treasury building here, a Scotland Yard of- | ficial declared. He said Sinn Feiners | and Bolsheviki planned the explo- | sion in reprisals for police activity | | against them. . | The Irish Office in London is lo- jcated in a building known as | Montague house, in Whitehall. It fis about a block distant from the Treasury building which is also in | Whitehall. Thousands of employ- ees are employed in them. The plotters planned to send | taxicabs, loaded with high explo- |sives into the street before the two | buildings. After the explosion it | was determined, it was plained to {hake a large body of armed men { rush into the district, inflict as {much damage as possible and es- | cape in the confusion which was certain to follow. The official said a number of sec- ret arrests had been made. A num- | ber of others were implicated. he |said. The ringleaders, it was ad- mitted, were unknown as yet. From the nature of the plot, it was believed to have been inspired | by the Wall street explosion, where |a waggonload of explosives is sup- posed to have been driven into the financial district and detonated. Other plots have been reported, {especially if Lord Mayor Mac- | Swiney, hunger-striker, dies. A | number of arrests were . made in | that connection and the guard about Brixton prison was augmented greatly. | ANOTHER WOMAN | { May Be Found In the British Colum. bia Legislature. | Vancouver, B.C., Sept. 29.--Ac- | cording to news arriving from the | North, there is a possibility that Mrs. {| Ralph Smith, M.L.A., may in the near future be joined on the floor of the Legislative Chamber by another wo- man, for Miss Katherine Ryan, of Stewart, B.C,, is likely to be a candi- date for the seat left vacant by the death of the late Frank Mobley, the member for Atlin. More than the us- ual interest centres in this announce- nient, for Miss Ryan is unique among women, in that she may lay claim to the title of "sourdough" and the story of her adventures might well be culled fram the ballads 8f Robert Service or the novels of Rex Beach. In addition, she has the unique dis- tinction of having held office for the past sixteen years as gold inspector in the Yukon, and as far as is known is the only woman in the world to hold such an office. Miss Ryan has been in the Yukon territory for the past twenty-four years and is well-known in every cor- ner of that vast hinterland. The vic- issitudes of fortune found her strand- i ed in British Columbia early in 1898. | The stories of the Exdoradoes in the | Yukon kindled her imagination and | roused her fighting spirit and she de- | termined to try her luck in the gold- fields. She was the first woman. to join the famous rush of '98 alone, and the fact that she succeeded in reaching her goal is eloquent tribute to her Spartan courage, grit and de- termination. 2,500 Divorce Cases : On British Docket London, Sept. 29.--The divorce courts reopen in a week after the summer recess with a record docket of from 2,000 to 2,500 cases, against 1,471 when the last term opened. As 700 of the pending cases ara left over the courts expect the busiest time in their history until the Christmas re- cess. Activity of the king's proctor to prevent divorces on perjured evi- dence---as brought out in the recent Bamberger trial--promises to lend |increasing interest in the coming cases. Made Splendid Returns. Regina, Sask., Sept. 29.--On a ba- sis of $2.50 a bushel, net, the cash value of the wheat crop now being ! taken off government greater produe- | tion farms in Saskatchewan and Al- ! berta is placed at $2,500,000 by W. {M. Graham, Indian commissioner { here. Mr. Graham would not venture | an estimate of operating expenses, but admitted that the profit on the venture for the present year would be well over a million dollars. The Rhea: crop is placed at 500,000 bus- els. / Approximately 20000 acres were sown in wheat this year. The yield on the Alberta land is announced at 45 bushels to the acre, though the value estimate is on the basis of 40 bushels to the acre, Saskatchewan's quota to the total will only yield about 15 bus- hels to the acre. ------------------ Cannot Levy Taxes. Victoria, B.C., Sept. 29. --Accord- >{ing to an important decision hand- ed down by the Court of Appeal here, the City of Victoria cannot seize and sell for taxes St. Andrew's Roman Catholic cathedral. Bishop Macdonald, prelate of Van- couver Island, inaugurated the action against' the city, te prevent seizure of church property and putting it up | for tax sale. Taxes amount to $16,- | 000, not having been paid since 1913. The plaintiffs contended that church sites are exempt from taxation The decision, they maintain, means that a church cannot be sold for {axes and also that taxes cann levied against if . Whig r EMBROIDERED GOWNS THE STYLE | ---- {Paris Says Milady Will Get | -Spring's Fashion Ideas { From Days of Long Ago. |HAND | Paris, Sept. 29. --Embroidered { hand-woven fabrics are to be the | chief feature of next Spring's fash- | fons, according to manufacturers | here. Indeed, they are already | adapting their looms to the demand which first made its appearance to- { wara the end of this Fall's displays, when American buyers eagerly bought up everything found in em- broidered lines. Flounces, frills, cuffs and collars will be adorned with the beautiful | hand work beloved by women who i lived in the middle of the last cen- | tury. | In the war the loom industry of France was abandoned, much of the machinery having been destroyed by the Germans or removed into the in- terior of Germany when the enemy retreated. But orders have been placed for the most modern machin- ery and merchants here are confl- dent there will be enough material produced in France this winter to prevent prices to the buyers exceed- ing the reach of moderate purses. Hand weaving was virtually aban- doned some time ago, however, be- cause of inability of manufacturers and merchants to interest workers in the tedious process. Owners of large mills contend that machine- embroidered fabrics are expensive, as {t requires a trained personnel for every change in detail. W. L. KING CALLS FOR GENERAL ELECTION The Liberdl Leader Opens His Western Tour at Victoria, B.C. Victoria, B.C., Sept. 29. --Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, Liberal leader, made the initial address of his west- ern tour before a large crown here. "A general election is necessary," he asserted, "in order to restore to the people control over parliament." He declared that there should be a revision downward of the tariff with substantial reduction of duties on necessaries of life and the instru- ments of production, and that a re- duction of taxation should be made by curbing extravagance. He believ- ed that wider recognition of labor, with representation in the shaping and control of industrial policies, would have the effect of putting an end to industrial strife. "We believe," Mr. King continued, "that if labor is as necessary to the successful running of our railways as capital or management, labor is entitled to its place on the board of directors." Banked on Fall in Prices To Get Good Dinner New York, Sept. 29.--Claiming that he was justified in paying only $1 for a meal in a restaurant, for which he was charged $1.90, because of "the general decrease in food pri- tes now sweeping the country," a man describing himself as Frederick Schoen, of 561 West 181st street, an interior decorator, was arraigned in West Side court on a disorderly con- duct charge. He was held in $100 bail for examination. The restaurant manager said ScH- oen "filled himself up with the best of food," and was charged $1.90. When he was asked to pay, he is said to have remarked: "I can get a feed like this anywhere else for a dollar. However, if it must be so, take this dollar and take my watch and chain for security." He then, it was sald, tried to aue- tion off the watch, and trouble brew- ing, was arrested. MASONRY IN SAMOA A Lodge Named in Honor of War ship Oalliope. London, Sept. 29.--A petition for a lodge at Apia, Western Samoa, from fifteen English, Australian and New Zealand Freemasons resident there, has been Grand Lodge of England through the va No Viti Levu, Fiji. It is proposed to name the Lodge "Calliope," that being the name of the British war- ship which went to the rescue of the men in the five ships which were dri- ven on to the coral reef at Apia on March 15th, 1889, and totally wreck- ed Y The proposed first Master is J. C. McGill Nutt, a member of several craft lodges, arch chapters, mark lodges, and other Masonic bodies in London, Bournemouth, and New Zea- land. . Might Accept Proposal of Joint Commission iy. Washington, Sept. 29.--Adminis- tration officials continue to decline to discuss for publication any of the phases of 'the negotiations with Japan growing out of the proposed anti- Japanege land law in California, but the impression has gome out that a proposal from Tokio that the ques- tion be referred to a joint commis- sion for solution would be unaccept- able The conversations regarding the California law, which have been go- ing on between Ambassador Shide- thara, of Japan, and state department officials, are continuing, and so far as has been learned the proposal for a joint commission has not been for- wby the Japanese government.
