After the game it was discovered
1hal some mIscreant had Sewcd a
piece Of indiarubber IN the init, Of

the fact that although he caught cv.

The ball wouldn't stay caught, but
bounded from his mitt before he could
get his right duke over it.

caught several balls ,la, the Lean
batters had not intended that he
should catch. thus preventing the
Shadows from making several runs To
which they We're entitled.

LEGISLATURE
WILL CONVENE
Governor Cummins Will Call
Iowa Lawmakers Together
to Settle Troubles

Des Moines. Ia, Aug. 28.-Nearly q
thousand Republicans were in con-
ference hers last night in an effort to
allay the facLioaal strife which has
torn the party du:ing the past few
years and which was believed by
many to menace the success OF the
Republican ticket in this state. The
feature of the occasion was Gov.
Cummins' announcement that he had
decided to call a special session Of
the legislature to dispose of the SEN
atorial matter. This special session
will be asked to amend the state
primary law to permit the Republican
voters to select the senatorial suc-
cession at the regular election in
November, instead Of leaving 1t to a
legislative caucus.
Gov. Cumm7ns' announcement was
generally accepted in good spirit, the
understanding being that the law
would be SO amended that only Re-
publican voters could participate In
the selection ct a Republican senatori-
al candidate.
Many Of the leaders Of the party
were present today and most Of the

members of the Iowa delegation in
congress. Senator Dolliver was one
of the speakers, accepting the deci-
sion Of the governor in good part and
declaring himself unequivocally for
q harmony program.
George D.. Perkins, editor of the
Sioux City Journal, bitter oppon-
ent Of Gov. Cummins, and Maj. John
F. Lacey were also among the speak
ers for harmony.
Gov. Cummins spoke at some
length, explaining that his reason for
asking that the senatorial question be
submitted to primary election was
that 1t would make possible the elec-
ton of all Republican legislative can
didates and provide for an unbiased
expression Of the voters on the mat
ter. State Auditor Carroll, Republi-
can nominee for governor, also spoke,
The conference was held under the
auspices OF the state central commit
tee and 1t is generally believed here
today to have been productive of good
in bringing the factions together for a
united fight for the entire Republican
ticket

day the ri1emen will shoot at the 800
yard target slow fire and at the 200

which he exerted in saving his life
yesterday is marvellous.
In his career, which has been con-
trolled by such strange destiny, he
seems at times to have even courted
death, but he himself says that never
before yesterday did he feel his
nerve" deserting him.
Lehman, who is So years old, and
lives at 1920 West Ninth street, has
followed the profession of an athletic
instructor. To his physical develop
ment he owes his life.
He took Mrs. Lehman to his daugh-
ter's home in Hollywood yesterday,
and then went into the woods with his
shotgun to hunt. One OF the doves
which he killed fell high upon Shoe
makers peak. He climbed up to re-
trieve it.

day in telling OF his experience. II
slid down and down and then over
the edge Of the precipice. l thought

In my way to stop myself. At last
my fingers caught in the very edge.
"Then l clung on with all my
strength. My mucles were strained
with my efforts to climb up, but it was
no use, for couldn't get good hand
hold. l felt around with my feet for
something to stand on. All could
find was ledge not over half an inch

time my feet slipped off 1t seemed as

ached 80 that finally decided that l
might just as we'll let go and have 1t
over with. Anything would seem
sweet beside the pains in my arms.
Il have faced death many times be-
fore, but never felt my nerve give way
as l seemed to then. l had just about
made up my mind to leap into the
chasm when l heard shout.
"My courage came back to me with
a rush. When there was chance for
me to get out of it alive my life
seemed to be worth whole lot. Then
the Hollywood fire department came
to my aid and they got me down.
II never called myself fool so
many times in my life as l did the

right with the exception of a little
soreness"
Lehman was retirent about dissuss-
ing his former experience. Thirty-six
years ago he was shipwrecked in the
Baltic sea. Although out of sight OF
land and tossed about by stormy
waves, he struck out bravely and
swan seven miles to shore.
He has also been at the very point
of death through starvation and cold,
but each time fate decreed that he
should be saved.

WILL INVESTIGATE
No More Deaths in the Chelsea
CatQstrOphe

Chelsea, Mass, Aug. 26-No addi-
tional deaths were recorded today at
the marine and naval hospitals among
the persons wre are at these hospi-
tails as a result of injuries received
in the collapse of the building walls
yesterday by which eight persons are
known to be dead and dozen are
wounded. Several of the injured had
been hurt so seriously as to have but
faint hopes of life. The officials were
busy today preparing for a compre-
hensive investigation of the accident.
The forty-five foot high brick wall
In Chelsea Square collapsed sudden
ly yesterday, burying beneath it some
thirty workmen. Seven were killed
outright or died in ambulances on
the way to the hospital. About thir-
ty others were injured, eleven Of
whom were taken to the United
States marine and naval hospitals
here, some Of them in serious con-
dition. A number of others escaped
with but minor injuries.
M. Gordon of the firm Of Gordon &
Ceegal, the contractors who had the
work in hand, was arrested late to-
day on warrant charging man
slaughter. Five minutes before the
collapse of the wall, it is said in
spector Of buildings Frank Weymouth
had ordered the foreman of the gang
to stop work, as he saw the wall was
crumbling.

men stood against the Park hotel.
Beams Of wood were being fitted into
this old wall, in order that it might
be utilized for the new structure. It
is said that the wall was undermin-
ed by the large holes that were dug
into 1t and that with no proper sup
port above, 1t gave way.

Goshen, Ind, Aug. 26.-Francis E..
Baker of the United States circuit
court of appeals. which reversed the
decision of Judge Landis fining the
Standard Oil company $29. FAC, 900, re-
piled yesterday to the critics of the
court. I'm the first place." he said,
1T was not the Standard OIL company
incorporated under the laws of New
Jersey, the parent concern, that was
on trial. but the Standard Oil COM
pany OF Indiana, an offspring un-
doubtedly, but much smaller and
a weaker organization. But when it
came to pass judgment it was on the
ofenses of the parent company that
the Indiana offspring was found gull
ty, and it was in accordance with
the property and revenues of the par
ent company that the fine Of the Off
spring was gauged. If it was the de-
sire and purpose of the court to pun
ish the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey, that concern should have been
indicted, either jointly or separately,
and have been brought into court.
Every corporation has exactly the
same rights as an individual, no more,
no less. The parent company is, of
course. more or less responsible for
the acts of the Indiana company. Peo-
pie will sooner or later realize that
the courts are not swayed by any 9TH
er influence than law and precedent.
What any one man may say in regard
to the decision of the court counts
for no more than his opinion. All
know in reality about the case is that
the common thing has occurred. A
motion for a re-hearing has been
filed"

HORRIBLE CASE
Of CANN|BAL|SM
Siberian Nomad Devoured His
Brothers. Wife and -Four
Children

st. Petersburg, Aug. 26.-Detatls
are given in the Yakutak newspapers
of a revolving case of cannibalism
among the nomadic tribes of Limuts,
living ON the river Korkodin. in ex-
treme northwestern Siberia. One OF
the nomads, driven desperate by
hunger, devoured the bodies Of his
brothers wife and four children. A
party Of hunters came upon the de-
serted encampment, found remains Of
the bodies and reported the case.
There was no vestige of food on the
premises. The brothers body was not
found and 1t is not known whether he
was eaten or wandered away and
perished in the snow. The nomad
tribes of this region pass precarious
existence and similar instances Of
hardships and cannibalism are often
brought to light when the melting OF
the Siberian SHOWS make travel pasp

PROBABLE EXPLANATION
Missing Groom Was Witness of Street
Murder in New York.

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 26.-While
considering the various theories as to
the cause of his disappearance. it
develops that Ralph w. Eddy was a
witness to a murder in New York City
last winter just before Christmas and
related his experience on that occa-
sion to his Ohio friends. While re-
turning from business tour through
the city and walking in the vicinity of
the Alberene Stone company's place
in New York City, Eddy saw two men
attack an old man. The latter fell
and when the police arrived, was
dead. Eddy in the meantime had kept
an eye on the slayers of the man and
pointed them out to the police, also
giving his own name and address, It
is said the men were indicted and are
awaiting trial in New York, although
Eddy was never called upon to testi-
fy.
Mr.. Everson confirms the above
statement, although he would not
venture any opinion as to whether
this incident might have any connec-
ton with Eddy's mysterious disap-
pearance here on the 18th of August.
