PRIVATE FIGHTERS DEATH.
Gen, Davis Submits Report to Adjt
Gen. Corbin Today.

General George B. Davis, judge advocate
general. has made a statement to Adju-
tant General Corbin Of the case of Private
E. c. Richter, Company I, 2Sth Infantry,
who is alleged to have died of Ill treatment
at the hands of Lieutenant Sinclair. The
statement says, among other things, that
the charges against Richter were serious
involving insubordinate conduct and dis
obedience Of orders.
According to the statement, Richter was
so abusive in his treatment of Lieut.. Sim
clair and to other prisoners where he was
confined that a member of the guard was
ordered to throw cold water In the prison
er's face in order to get him to desst. The
water was thrown from a distance of about
eight feet, and was continued at intervals
when cursing occurred, covering a period
of about three minutes.
AS the abusive language continued wit n
view to put an effectual stop to the
abusive and obscene language, Lieut.. Sim
clair ordered the prisoner gagged, which was
done by the sergeant of the guard with the
assistance of the members of the guard.
A transcript of the testimony of Sergt.
McDermott is incorporated in the state
ment to show that no undue severity was
used toward Richter. The statement relates
how Lieut.. Sinclair later in the night, upon
being aroused, went himself for surgeon.
When he returned Richter was dead. A
post-mortem examination of the body was
made by the post surgeon.
Many organs of the body were found to
be normal. However, both lungs were so
much involved as to cause surprise that
Richter had been able to pass the physical
examination required Of recruits upon en-
listment. In the opinion Of the examining
surgeon, R1chter's death was caused by the
accidental entrance Of vom1tus into ira
chea and bronchial tubes.
Whether the foreign substance would
have been expelled had the prisoner been Of
normal lung capacity no opinion Is ex-
pressed The cause Of death assigned was
apneumatosia. or choking due to the pres
ence of foreign substance in the bronchial
tubes.
The death Of Private Richter was prompt
ly reported to the department commander.
who Immediately ordered an investigation.
The facts were fully stated to the inspec-
tor. who recommended, after thorough in
qutry, that no further proceedings be had.
The recommendation of the Inspector was
not accepted. and, upon the receipt Of the
inspection report, the case was ordered
to be Investigated by a general court-mar-
tial. The proceedings Of the court have
not yet reached the department.

AFTER MORE PLAYERS.
Magnate Rogers Will Ask for Injunc-
tions Against Flick and Cross.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The base ball controversy will be reopened
in day or so, and the fight for players be-
tween the Philadelphia National League
club and the clubs who signed former Phil
adelphia players will be continued in earn
est. Col. John 1. Rogers has been arranging
plans for carrying on the fight, while the
opposition feels rather hopeful since the de-
cision of the Missouri court, which refused
to grant injunctions to the St. Louis Ma
tional League team against Wallace, Held
rick and Harper.
Col. Rogers, when seen about the Phila-
delphia courts yesterday, said that the
Philadelphia club has had bills in equity
against Flick and Cross prepared for the
past few days. He explained, however, that
the suits were not filed because of negotia-
tions between the two players and Manager
Shettsine looking to an amicable settle
ment of their differences.
These negotiations, he added. We're opened
by the players themselves telegra phing
from Washington and asking for interviews
on fixed dates. The players neglected to
keep the engagements. Afterwards Flick
teIegra phed to Mr.. Shettsline at New York
that he could not see him at the time stated
We understood from other sources con-
tinued Col. Rogers, that Cross and Flick
desired to talk business in view Of the
courts decision, and we, therefore, did not
want to haraSS them needleSSly with in
junction bills and, furthermore, we did not
desire to cause unnecessary trouble and liti-
cation.
Il understand now, however, and see it
reported in the papers, that Flick has been
traded to the Cleveland club. If this is true
we will retain counsel in Cleveland and one
or two other American League cities, inclu-
sive, most likely, in Boston. and see if the
courts in those cities will not follow the un-
answerabls law and equity Of the supreme
court of Pennsylvania.
LAS for Monte Cross, he is a resident of
this city, and the same urgency that is
needed in any other case against our play
ers is not necessary in his case. We expect
him, as a abiding citizen, to cease being
a contract breaker. and report for duty
without further notice or legal process. We
will not file a bill against him until we feel
sure that such summary action and COM
pulsion are necessary. AS for the three en-
joined players, their salaries will start as
soon they report for duty, and no
sooner
Mr.. Rogers attention was then directed to
the decisions in the ST Louis courts, and he
had this to say in regard thereto:
1.-The decisions of the ST. Louis courts are
those of inferior tribunals; certainly not
higher in dignity nor Importance than our
local common pleas courts. / feel sure that
the supreme court of Missouri will reverse
their finding the same as our supreme court
did the original action of common pleas

MAY JOIN SENATORS.
Monte Cross to Be Exchanged for Fred
Ely.

Connie Mack is doing some tall hustling
these days to find some way of further out
whiting Colonel Rogers, the injunction hum
ter, and from the latest reports he will turn
another trick ina few days that will clean
up the legal fight so far as Philadelphia is
concerned. 1t is reported that, in order to
dodge any move Rogers might make to
secure Monte Cross, the latter will be sent
to Washington. and Fred Ely, who Is play
Ing shortstop for the Senators, and who
played with the Athletics last season, will
go to Philadelphia. This is rather hard
luck for Monte, whose home is in the
Quaker city, but rather than allow the Ma
tional League to get him this move is con-
tempiated.
Some excitement caused yesterday
by the report that Elmer Flick, who was
sent to Cleveland to dodge the Philadelphia
courts decision, had changed his mind and
was on his way to st. Louis to join the
Philies. Word was received last night
from st. Louis stating that nothing had
been heard of Flick.
Manager Mack is not much disturbed over
Colonel Rogers latest threat regarding
Monte Cross and Flick. He said yesterday:
THE west is not National League coun-
try. and the state of Ohio is not Pennsyl-
vania, and possibly Colonel Rogers will not
find the same easy sailing there that he has

Thereafter the visitors added two goals to
their score. Mr.. Keene played only ten
minutes to test his form. and found he was
very weak. Before play Mr.. Keene said:
'In regard to these preliminary games,
they are simply practice. We do not at
