 stockdale, formerly of the Memphis club but now on the pitching sta" of Mobile.
 q am getting tip affidavits to prove tbe truth of what say and shall not stop until the matter is fully investi- gated. Rabb told me to stop winning games as the Memphis management had been to a great deal of expense and needed the money. He saia H .ne finish was close in Atlanta that the gate receipts would be large and profitable season result. He made me pitch in Atlanta when I was sick ana told me he did not want to win lie threw away game in Nashville oeiln' erately in order to make the race Tor the flag close. He got ball and fosseo it all around as though he could nor handle 1t and then made bad throw to James who was playing second for Memphis.
 T expect James and Nick Carter. now manager of Winston-Salem, to sign my afidavits I don't think there was a man with Memphis last season who did not know of the plan to give the flag to Atlanta and make the tur- ties come in at close finish and share in the gate receipts. The scheme not only robbed the public. but kept the players from getting a little extra mon- ey that they might have made in some post-season games had we been all lowed to win the pennant.

 Eaton Rouge. La, June 2.--In the lower House of the Louisiana Assem- ply today, Representatives Drefbholz introduced a bill prohibiting the sale Of Intoxicating liquors within ten miles or Tulane University. This would have the effect of placing practically the whole city of New Orleans in the dry column. This measure, however although introduced fn the regular manner, was not taken seriously by the members of the body, who greeted the introduction of the bill with laugh ter.
 similar greeting was given a bili introduced by Representative Cooper This measure declares that a mans kissing his own wife or any other mans wife on Sunday shall Constitute misdemeanor and shall be regarded and punished as such.
 Becoming more serious, the House greeted in a different manner the aI1- nouncement from Representative Dous. san that new State wide prohibition bill would be introduced and would be pushed by the prohibitionists of the State.
 No vote was taken today on the anti race track gambling bill by the joint Judiciary Committee of the Louisiana Assembly. They sat for an hour, at the conclusion of which the calling of the roll of the House forced an ad- journment, subject to the, call of tho chairman.
