DREYFUSS WROTH
ABOUT HIS PLAYERS

PITTSBURG. Pa. September killarney
Dreyfuss who is credited with owning the
majority of stock in the Pittsburg ball
team. is about the maddest man In Pitts
burg. In mis- own of1ciai organ, the Press,
Barney goes the length of saying that most
OF the boys on the team are too rich to play
good ball. and that this knowledge perhaps
hurts their game. He says Ritchey or any
other OF the old-timerS can quit quick as
they like, and says with emphasis that II
his team don't win second place for him he
will keep their noses to the grindstone BARN.
storming for him until their contracts have
run out. In part Barney is quoted by his
own man as saying:
Zone Of the things that ails our team Is
that there are too many capitalists on 1t.
The boys know that they do not have to
play ball for living. and sometimes that
may affect their playing. There Is only
one Of the old players on the Pittsburg
team who is playing as a means Of liveli-
hood. and that's Leach. The others could
give up the game any time"
Regarding the story that Ritchey wants to
quit the game, that he Is dissatisfied Drey
fuss said:
IF Ritchey wants to quit he can do 80. I
won't try to make a man play ball who
don't want to. However. 1t hasn't been SO
long that he told me we would have to kick
him out If we wanted to get rid Of him in
Pittsburg. He has said nothing to me about
quitting. however. Just the same. l am
sending Abstein down to Boston, ready to
jump into the game if any of those old
players want to quit
In conclusion Dreyfuss said: II want to
emphasize that If that team does not make
second place in the race for me that will
make them play the string out. will make
them play exhibition games to the end OF
their contracts. They have chance yet
for second place. They deserve no favor at
my hands IL they do not win 1t. nor will
they get any.
IF they win second place they can go
with my blessing and on fua pay when the
last league game is played"

COURT SCORES JEROME
HIS METHODS IN THAW CASE
SEVERELY CRITICISED.

In decision handed down in the supreme
court In New York yesterday Justice Mac
Lean refers to Recorder Golf the motion to
make permanent temporary writ prohib-
iting District Attorney Jerome and the
grand jury from examining witnesses In the
case Of Harry X. Thaw. indicted for the
murder of Stanford White. The court,
however. severely critic!ses the methods
adopted In the case against the young Pitts
burg millionaire by Mr.. Jerome.
Mr.. Jerome has been summoning and
questioning witnesses concerning the muir
der Of White. using subpoenas alleging that
crime had been committed by one John
Doe" This form OF proceeding is usually
followed to obtain evidence which to
base indictments. Thaw's attorney swore
that in this John Doe case no further In
dictment was sought. but that Mr.. Jerome's
purpose was to procure evidence to be used
against Thaw at his trial for murder.
Judge MacLean declares such proceeding
is travesty.
1.-The command to attend is an impos-
ture,' he says. "Falsity affords presump-
tive evidence Of the mischievousness OF an
act Of power. 1t Is no longer to make be-
lieve that any one Is or has been lurking
up and down the country with vagabond
of the name of Doe. The use of fiction has
fallen into desuetude. No man. even official.

is to be INDUCED in cheating them for their
good or for the public welfare
Thaw was visited today by Roger O. Mara,
the Pittsburg detective who has been re-
tanned in connection with his defense. 1t
was reported that O'Mara had been sent
for to confer with Thaw regarding alleged
differences between Thaw and Clifford w.
Hartridge. his chief counsel relative to the
line Of defense to be adopted at Thaw's
trial. .OMara Is generally accredited with
having considerable influence over Thaw by
reason Of his long acquaintance with the
Thaw family. After O'Mara left the prison
Mr.. Hartridge had conference with Thaw.
Later the attorney was asked il there had

himself.
mot SO far as I know" he replied.
Mr.. Hartridge also stated that reports
published that Thaw refused to be exam
ined by three alienists yesterday were far
from the truth. He said that two of the
doctors had visited Thaw before in the
Tombs. Thaw told one of the keepers at
the Tombs today that the reason he did no.
care to see the doctors yesterday was be-
cause he had an appointment with Rev.
Father William Dlazowski OF Fall River,
Mass. The clergyman did not call yester-
day. however. but saw Thaw today. Mr.
Hartridge said that Father Dlazowski was
a friend of Thaw. but would make no state
ment as to the connection. II any. the priest
