Second Trial of George KIughertz May

From Thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
The second trial of George Klughertz
will probably not come off at the pres
ent term of the district court, but the
case will in all probability be continued
until the February term. The plea of
former jeopardy entered by the defend
and to the second indictment will be
tried before the court and decision had
at the present term. The expense of
getting a jury may have weight in de-
Gliding upon continuance of the case.
Under the old criminal code there
would have been no ground for such
plea, but the attorneys are divided on
the question whether second trial can
be had under the present code. 1t is held
by some that. both indictments being
based on the same transaction, and the
charge being the same, as well as the
punishment, the defendant has been in
jeopardy and could not be so placed
again. The point cannot be passed up
on by the supreme court until after the
second triai mas been ,iaG.

WINNIPEG ALMOST
BLANkED By ALTOONA
CoIored Ball Team Turns Ia.
bIes on Northern League
Champions.

Algona evened up with Winnipeg
yesterday at Lexington park by defeat
ing the Northern league pennant win
ners In as pretty a contest as has been
seen at the park this season. Although
the Canadians played an errorless
game, to which was added the splendid
work Of Sessions, who was on the slab,
the pennant winners were unable to
with the twisters handed out to
them by Holland, of the colored team.
Score, A to 1.
Algona hit better than the Canadians
and played almost as perfect a fielding
game. Two Of their runs, however,
were secured on passed balls and wild
pitches, while the other two were
earned. An error made by the colored
players cost the only run secured by
the Winnipegers during the game.
The started the run get
ting by scoring in the first inning.
After Quillan, the first man up. had
struck out. Annis got in front of one of
Hollands inshoots and walked to first.
He stole second, and finally reached
on J~ohnson's error at the home
plate, the catcher falling to get the
ball. But for this mishap the story
would be even a more disastrous one
for the pennant winners. After this
Winnipeg stood but little chance to
score at any time, fourteen of their
number striking out.
The colored aggregation secured
their runs one at a time in four differ
ent innings, the lfiEst coming in the
third. dr.
Holland went tor first on four wild
ones. reached second on Richardson's
sacrifice, went to third on a safe hit
by. Tony and scored on Jones fly to CEN
ter field.
In the fifth, after; Holland had been
retired at first, Richardson hit a safe
n and stole second. He reached third
on Smiths sacrifice and scored on
Tony's single.
In the sixth twoss singles and a passed
ball formed the combination RESPONSE
bic for another run and IN the seventh
two wild pitches. and a single by Rich
ardson, Melted the fourth and last run
credited to the colored aggregation.
Both Holland n Sessions did good
work in the box, but the distinctive
feature of the game wa the pitching
of Holland, who struck out fourteen of
the leaguers and allowed but six hits,
half of which were scratches. Aside
from their inability to connect with
ball, both teams played well, the
exhibition being a much better one than
that of Saturday The score:

GENEROUS SAINTS
LOSE TO THE BLUES

CinChed, Allow Kansas City
to Win Two.
Special to The Globe.

special TO Inc G1ODe.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 20.-Hav-
ing the pennant cinched, the Saints
grew charitable to the Blues today and
both ends of the last Sunday double
header was credited to Kansas City by
scores of Z to 5 and II to 5.
The games were rare exceptions for
this late in the season when the race
has been decided and there is nothing
to gain. From the first ball pitched
until the last out in the opener the
teams played as though a pennaht was
at stake, and it is certain hat the
Blues have never put up such a batting
battle this season. The Saints were
lax at times, especially when so far in
h lead that the game looked cinched
for them. and Kansas City came with a
rush and won out in the eighth inning
by swatting Corbett hard and making
the best of the Kelleyites' errors.
st. Paul jumped onto GibSon'S slants
hard at the beginning, and started out
with fou rum in the first two innings,
but after that the Kelley band could
push only one more run over the pan.
The second game went only five in
nings on account of darkness, and after
Kansas City had batted out seven runs
In the first two rounds off Bartos the
Saints slowed down a bit and took
things easily. The Blues kept up the
sw~atZenfest at Bartos' expense, and
fifteen hits were registered in the five
innings.
The Saints got interested themselves
toward the last, and threatened at one
time to pull the game put Of the fire.
The visitors pounded Alloway's shoots
safely four times in the fifth inning
for three runs, the business hit coming
as a home run by Schaefer with two
men on bases. While Germany" had
a bad day in the fielding department,
he was busy with the bat. making three
doubles in the opening game and a
double and a home run in the second.
Umpire Foreman was a mark for
both teams in the opening game, and
he found that he was being overcome
by f~aintness in the second, and Collins,
a brush league umpire, was substitute
ed. His work was entirely satisfactory
to both teams, his decisions being far
more fair thar Foreman's. After en-

possible. Sullivan went after Foreman
strong in the second inning of the first
game, and was sent to the bench.
The association season closes here
tomorrow with another do~uble-header.
St Paul has been the best drawing
card of the local season and the Kelley
ftes have divided the receipts of the
two largest Sundays. Early in the sea-

Saints, and this attendance was dupli-
