Neither Of the men played up TO their

game, the match was not as interesting

beaten by the Philadelphia Athletics by

Tom Hughes essayed 10 pitch, but il
was not his day. and before the game was
half over it was seen that he was due for a
severe beating. To make matters worse.
every element Of luck seemed to con-
spire against the locals. During the first
six innings Hughes was touched up for
ten hits. most Of which were timely. and
at the beginning Of the seventh the long
fellow was chased to the clubhouse and
Case Patten took up the going. During
the remaining sessions the visitors were
retired in order.
Eddie Plank was on the rubber for the
Athletics. and during the game the Ma
tiCaals were able to gather only three
hits; however, each Of these was for an
extra base and netted one run. In the
ninth, with two out Plank eased up and

G. L. SHELDON JR. RULES
A TRUST OF NEWSB0YS
Son of the Anti-combine Governor of
Nebraska, with Aid Of "Red,"
Controls Street Sales
of Lincoln

LINCOLN, Neb, Sept. 29.--While Gov
George L. Sheldon is a strong antitrust
man. and has been seeking earnestly to
bring to book the powerful railroad COM
binat which for years has ruled the
state, his ten-year-old son, George L.
Sheldon, jr., has been organizing COM
bination among the newsboys of Lincoln
for the purpose of advancing the price
of local papers sold in the streets.
Young Sheldon himself is the most IN
fiuential newsboy in Lincoln. He not
only sells papers, but he goes barefoot,
consorts with poor ragged newsboys with
out assuming any airs of superiority, and
on occasion even sells lemonade in the
Capitol building near his fathers office.
He sold papers and lemonade on the fair
grounds during the recent state fak.
Two of the newsboys refused to go into
the combination, but young Sheldon, 1t
is said, forced them in. He rules the
combination. His most intimate chum is
Red Mcguire, red-headed newsboy
who drifted into Lincoln from Butte,

and he and the governors SON are very
fond of eae- other and are very much
together.
Gov. Sheldon encourages his boy to
go out and sell newspapers and lemon

to engage in business on his own account

PURSUIT OF YEARS
MAY END TODAY
FUGITIVE CASHIER LOCATED BY
DETECTIVES
Ewaid c. Hastns Of Minneapolis, De.
fauIter, Has Evaded Capture In
New York, New Orleans and
San Francisco

Ewald G. Hastfns, formerly employed
as cashier by a large mercantile firm
in Minneapolis, but who fed from that
city four years ago and who is wanted
there on charge of embezzlement, is
in Los Angeles and will probably be ar
rested by officers of private detective
agency this morning.
For four years the members of this
agency have sought the man and have
trailed him through every large city in
the Union. A year ago he succeeded In
eluding them in New York and until a
week ago all trace OF him was lost
Meantime officers of the agency had
been busy seeking clews of his where
abouts, and at last learned that he had
been seen in San Francisco. In that
city 1t was learned he had come to Los
Angeles under an assumed name, and
by sheer chance the detectives sue
ceeded in picking up the threads which
led to information of his whereabouts
and made his arrest possible.
All yesterday detectives from the
agency watched the house in which
Hastins lives. and had the man ap-
peared he would have been taken into
custody. 1t was learned he had left
Saturday night for a visit to friends in
Santa Monica and was expected back
this morning and the officers believed 1t
home before making the arrest.
Their reason for this is that it is
thought Hastins has in his poss ession
papers which will secure his conviction,
despite the fact that the police now
have ample proof against him.
Spent LavishIy
Early in January, 1903, word was
taken Hastins employers that all was
81. IL y fnv@A al ~ f1rdVr
that he was expending large sums of
money each month.
Private detectives were engaged to
watch the man and gained knowledge
of Hastins' life which caused his en-
ployers to place expert accountants to
work on his books.
1t was learned that Hastins had been
carrying on system of thefts for years
and that he was nearly $4,000 behind
in his accounts.
While these Investigations were
being carried on Hastins became sus-
picious and left ostensibly for trip to
Milwaukee. He never returned to Min
neapolis, and when detectives went to
look for him it was found he had dis
appeared.
For some time all trace of him was
lost when he was seen in New Orleans.
Instructions were sent to the chief OF
police there to arrest Hastins, but
when an officer went to serve the war
rant the fugitive had gone.
Since that time circulars have been
sent all over the country describing him
and instructing the sheriffs and police
of different counties and cities to arrest
on sight.
The members of the private detective
agency who were on his track have had
the idea always in mind that some of
Hastins' former acquaintances who
knew his record would in time recog-
rize him and notify them of his where
abouts. Their ideas proved correct and
within another twenty-four hours 1t is
probable the man who has led them
such a merry chase will be behind the
bars.
