HAD A RIOT GALL
Sheriff Veitch and Deputies Lured to
Pleasant Prairie by False Alarm

Sheriff Veitch and two of his depu-
ties Charles Dietrich and Homer
Royce, were the victims of bad hoax
on Monday afternoon, when they were
forced to respond to a riot call from
the town of Pleasant Prairie. Tie
call, which came in by telephone, de-
clared that a man had fallen and
broken his neck, and the sheriff and
his two deputies quickly secured rig
and started for the scene of the sup
posed fatal accident. When they
reached the place they found crowd
of men and boys standing saround the
PROSTATE form of a man. Dietrich
was deputized to put the man in a
wagon, and when he took hold of the
fellow he was aware that there had
been a mistake. With a smile the
man got up and calmly walked away.
The sheriff and his aids are still
looking for the perpetrators of the al
legged joke, and if they are found it is
probable that the jail will be filled up.

DROP FIRST GAME
Sheboygan Defeats Kenosha in
Opening Came for Semi-Pro-
fessionaI Championship
GR0TH RAPED FOR MANY HITS

The chances of the Kenosha base
ball team winning the State semi
professional championship had a hard
set back in Sheboygan Sunday when
the Strong bunch under the manage
ment of Wander Vaart took the first
game of the championship series by a
score of z to 8. In fact it was a walk
away for the Sheboygan team and
about $500 loyal rooters gathered on
the field and cheered the home team
to victory.
The kenosha team made a pitiab1e
showing against the leaders of the
Lake Shore League and Breen's men
will have to take a decided brace if
the expect to land the State
championship. There we're dozen
Disguised rooters from Kenosha
present at the game.
The Sheboygan team evidently de-
cided that it would not do to take any
chances and they had their star
pitcher in the box. Wilson delivered
the goods and allowed the Kenosha
batters just two hits while sixteen
menwere placed in the strike out
column. Groth was in the box for
kenosha and he was effective during
most of the game. However he let
down IN the second inning and the
,Sheboygan hitters pounded the ball
all over the field making a total of six
hits which netted them FIVE earned
runs.
Both teams we're BANKED in the first
inning and from the manner of the
play it looked as if the game would be
real championship battle. In the
second, however, the fusi1ade on the
part of Sheboygan began and five
runs resulted. A trio of blanks for
each team followed and then Sheboy-
ganfstrengthened their hold on the
game with another brace Of runs,
bringing the total up to seven. In
the eighth inning the Kenosha team
had a fortunate hit and aided by the
only error credited to Sheboygan in
the game the Kenosha boys scored
three runs. These runs however
only teased them into faster play for
in the ninth inning Wilson steadied
down like clock and the Kenosha
boys were retired in one, two, three
order.
The second game of the series is to
be played at Kenosha on next Sunday
afternoon and it is probable that
Frank Smith Of the WhitesSox will be
in the box for Kenosha. Con1iskey
has notified Breen that he will farm
him pitcher for the two,sremaining
games with Sheboygan.
The Sheboygan fans were wild with
delight over the victory of their team
and celebrated it in a noisy manner
The hackers of the Sheboygan team
seem to be ready to back their team
for money, marbles, and chalk and
many declare that sKenosha swill not
get a single game.

Claim Made That Many Valuable
Gambling Devices Were Stolen
from Ksnosha Recently
THIEVES WORKED SCHEME
Send Letters to Saloon Men Purported
to be Written by Owners of Machine
and Bear Away Their Booty in
Broad Day Light

The old adage proc1aiming that
here is honor among thieves got a
pretty hard bump in Kenosha today
when it became known that a Chica-
20 company in control of slot ma
chimes had been robbed by a clever
gang of thieves of property and
money to the amount of between four
and five thousand dollars. The
scheme was one of the most clever
ever known in the annals of crime IN
Wisconsin and it was worked out with
such close following of detail that
it has excited the admiration of the
officers who are seeking to discover
the guilty parties.
Some time ago District Attorney
Baker sent out a general order against
slot machines and more than thirty
of the machines which had been used
in saloons and other resorts in Keno
sha disappeared as if by magic.
Many of the machines were of the
most elaborate pattern and it is
claimed that they ranged in value
from 500 to $500. These machines
had all been the property of a Chica-
go company represented in Kenosha
by man by the name of Johnson.
With the order against the machines
Johnson returned to Chicago leaving
the machines behind with the evident
purpose of replacing them IN the
saloons as soon as the order of the
district attorney had been forgotten.
The saloon men placed the machines
in attics and cellars and nothing had
been done with them since.
When the machines had been taken
out of commission all of them con-
tanned money, the amount varying
from a few dollars up to hundred
dollars. Johnson never came to Keno
sha to get this money and as it be-
1onged largely to him the saloon men
had left it undisturbed. Early last
week the saloon men who had the
machines received letter purporting
to come from Johnson statingsthat he
had found a new place for the ma
chimes and that he would send men
for them later in the week. The
letters stated that the machines would
be opened in Chicago and that the
saloon men would receive checks for
their share of the profits. The letter
was written on one of Johnson's
letter heads and it stated that the man
coming for the machines would pre-
sent Johnson's card.
In due time the men arrived and the
machines were removed from the at
tics and loaded into a wagon and
taken away. It is alleged that they
were opened in Kenosha and the
money taken from them after which
they were shipped to an Eastern city
by the thieves.
1t is now learned that the man who
owned the machines had sent out no
orders and that Johnson is out some
thing like four thousand dollars by
the deal. AS the machines were left
in the Kenosha saloons at the maker S
risk it is not thought that Johnson
will be able to recover from the saloon
men and he will have to bear the en-
tire loss.
In the meantime efforts are being
quietly made to unearth the gang
which planned the clever robbery.

wered such device as this in the case
of Montague & Company VS.. Lowery.
There it was truly claimed that the
sales of unset titles in San Francisco
by local dealers, We're considered by
themselves interstate transactions The
court held a sale could not be separ-
ated from the main purpose OF the
combination. which was to fix and
maintain uniform prices for goods
which were the subject of interstate
commerce"
Moody cited numerous decisions as
to what constituted interstate com l.
merce and original package, and quot
ing from one opinion of the court, sald
it was clearly established by the case
in point that sale by an owner to ms
agent, of commodities imported or to
be imported from another state to
place of sale in original package is an
act of interstate commerce and the
owner or his agent taking part as ven
der, is engaged in transacting inter-
state commerce."

killed at Port Arthur. On January a

Fock had been killed. but admitted that
he had been wounded. A dispatch re-
