WILL STAY
AT LEAGUES HEAD

Cincinnati, June 5.-After being in
session practically all the afternoon
and until past midnight. the directors
of the National Baseball League de-
ferred until some future meeting defi-
mite action regarding President Harry
Pulliam Of the League. who is at pres
emit on an indefinite leave Of absence.
The statement was made that Pres
ident Pulliam has sufficient number of
votes among the directors to assure his
return to the presidency in an active
sense II 1t can be shown that he has
recovered from the Illness from which
he was suffering when he was given
his leave of absence.
The decision of Acting President
John Heydler in the matter of the pro-
tested Cincinnati game of April % was
reversed by the directors by vote
taken at midnight and 1t was ordered
that the game be played of in Pitts
burg on September 10.
The action in the Pittsburg-Cincin-
natl case, 1t is said, is the first in
stance In the history OF the National
League that it's president was over
ruled by the Board Of Directors

BOARD WILL OPPOSE
DEEPwATER PROJECT

washington, June From the
known attitude OF some prominent ar
my officials, the impression has been
gained that the unanimous report or
the army board of engineers on the
proposed Mississippi deep waterway
project from St. Louis to the Gulf OF
Mexico, which probably will be before
Congress before the end of next week,
takes the general ground that the
commercial interests Of the case do
not warrant the expenditure OF the
vast sums which would be required to
construct and maintain the proposed
Waterway.
No intimation, however, OF the con-
clusion of the engineers could be OBJ
tained today.
~The proposed deep waterway from
ST. Louis to the Gulf is part OF the
great project to connect the Great
Lakes with the Gulf by channel suf-
ficient to accommodate large craft
throughout the year.
According to the explanation adopt
ed BY Congress when 1t authorized the
survey of the Mississippi, the engi-
neers were to collect data on the con-
struction of a channel fourteen Feet

SEARCHING FoR MURDERER.



Chicago June 4.-Yesterday's In
quest having demonstrated almost be-
yond q doubt that DR.. John Binkley,
Sr.. OF Evansville, Ind, was murdered
in this city Wednesday, the police to-
day began an active search for the
murderer.
At nrst, local ofiicials were inclined
from the fact that q pistol was found
by the slain PHYSICIANS side. to insist
that he had taken his own life, but
the discovery that he carried no weap-
on, was in the best of spirits at the
time of his sudden death at the We'll
iington Hotel and thaA the position OF
the wound rendered II extremely i'm
probable that the wound was self-in-
flicted, has led to a readJustment Of
officiai Views.
Today search was directed chiefly at
tracing the pistol found by the dead
mans side.
Frank Keller a youth employed in a
coal yard. was arrested this afternoon
IN connection with the case. Keller
was accused In an anonymous istter
of having talked TO a companion about
easy money" secured from an ejeva-
tor boy at the wellington Hotsl AMI OF
an 'old man" who was dead easy"
Keller strenuously denied the accuse
ton, declaring that he had never rsed
the language quoted. nor, he said. did
he know any employee Of the hotel.
"I am inclined to believe Ro'ler's
story" said Captain O'Brien, but we
will take him before the various en-
ployes OF the hotel before releasing
him"
Or. Binkley's body was shipped to
sbawneetown, ILL.,. his old home. today.

effort was made to nave Solicitor, Phil
Stern present at the meeting. butpress-
ing business kept rnat official at his
ONCE.
Startling Infornsatson.
When asked whether the clubs and
their locker systems would be brought
into court. Mr.. Miles declined to make
a statement, contenting himself with
the observation that the Law and Or
der League had secured some informa-
ton that might prove startling. When
the proper time was thought. TO have
arrived.
When seen late yesterday afternoon
Sheriff Hood declined to make a state
ment He said that beyond the fact
that thirty warrants had been placed
in his hands for execution and that
his deputies were busy serving the
papers In the afternoon rain, he had
nothing to say. 1t is known. however.
that all other work In the Sheriffs Of
fce was dropped when the deputies
were given the papers. After the arrests
had been made the sheriff again re-
fused to make a statement.
1t was rurnored on the streets during
the afternoon that when all of the
warrants had been executed there
would be a special meeting of the
grand jury, that the cases may be tried
as soon as possible. The Law and Or
der League officials seem to be very
confident OF their information. and 1t
would seem to be their desire that
the cases come before jury as soon
as the grand jury can be assembled
and return indictments.
Seemingly bearing out the rumor
that all of the cases would be tried at
the first term of the City Court. Mr.
Miles yesterday afternoon announced
that Judge Chiffon and Warren s. An
drews would assist Solicitor Stern and
Assistant Solicitor Logan Martin in the
prosecution of the cases.
In connection with tine warrants. Mr..
Miles stated that a mammoth mass
meeting OF all citizens in Montgomery
would be- held In the city auditorium
Sunday afternoon at 3 O'clock. It Is
said that SOME Of the sensational In
formation will be sprung at this time
by the speakers which have been
chosen.
The full list Of speakers for the
meeting has not been announced, but
1t is known that other than the pres
fdent of the League. Rev. Bob Jones,

history Of the ice blockads.
Ordinarily at this season. the straits

straight course for the steamers. This
