in the South.

CHICAGO, Jan. 26.-All of the Amer
lean league organizations have their
training spots about settled upon. and
by the middle of March the South will be
filled with the various clubs of the John
son organization The fact that inter

the spring jaunting trips of more than
usual interest
The, places at which the clubs are to
train are follows:
Chicago at Mobile. Ala; New York at
Atlanta, Ga, and New Orleans; Boston
at Augusta, Ga; Philadelphia at Phila-
delphia; Washington at Washington:
Cleveland at New Orleans; st. Louis al
West Baden; Detroit at Ypsilanti or in
the South (exact location undeeided)
seems that the Chicago National league
club will go to Champaign again. and
Pittsburg is sure to keep its place at Hot
Springs. The places at which the other
teams of the old league will train have
not vet been decided. -

nShed the fact that there was not the
remotest connection between my visit
to Congressman Lessler and the alleg-

that Philip Doblin was formerly tenn

DOBLIN RECANTS HIS
TESTIMONY ON
BRIBERY
Tells Lessler Investigating
Committee That He Swore
Falsely When He Said He

Talk About Buying a Vote.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 26-PhiI-
ip Doblin, who testified before the
house committee on naval affairs Sat-
urday that he had approached Rep
resentative Lessler, of New York, with
an offer of money to influence his vote
on the submarine boat bill and who
made the further statement that he
had been told there might be 81 900 in
it for him, made the astounding state
ment before that committee today that
he made statements Saturday which
were not true and that he wanted to
retract his statement that Mr.. Quigg
had rendered the bride to him.
The statement came without any pre-
vious warning that Doblin intended
making any such retraction. Members
Of the committee looked at one an
other in amazement as Doblin went on
with his statement.
Gustavus Rogers, an attorney, after
the witness had left the stand, said
he appeared for Mr.. Doblip, who had

made some statements Saturday which
were true and some which were false,
