INSPECTOR M'cANN y
CONVICTED OF GRAFT

Chicago. Sept. 23.-Police Inspector
Edward Mccain, charged with graft
ing" was found guilty by a jury which
reported in Judge Barnes court today.
Sentence will not be pronounced until
after the Hearing of arguments for
a new trial. The law provides an IN
determinate sentence to prison.
TIL charges against the inspector in
charge of the Desplaines street district
were the most sensational aimed
against\a police official in years.
States Attorney Wayman charged
that graft" aggregating many thou
sands of dollars had been collected
from disorderly houses in return for
protection"
The chief witness against Mccain
was Louis Frank. a Russian Immigrant
who although unableNto read or whiteS
has accumulated a fortune Of several
hundred thousands of dollars in the
West Side Tenderloin. He and his
brother julius for years have exer-
cised a marked power in West Side
politics.
Louis Frank testified that he col
lected the protection" money from
denizens of the Tenderloin. The first
two collections, he stated on the wit
ness stand, were paid to Detective
Jeremiah Griffin, who, he said, acted
as agent for Mccain. Thereafter. he
declared, he had given the money to
Mccain in person.
McCann's defense was that he had

der the eye of Coach Tirrell and Cap
tain Jack Gallivan, so that many OF
the elementary points of grIdiron lore
have been drilled into the ambitious
squad that has been out on the cam
pus.
Along with the veteran material to
draw on this season for a strong elev-
en-, the Academy will have the adj
vantage of being hnder captain with
lot of football experience. and one
of the most prominent athletes in all
branches of sport that the school has
had in recent years. On the footballs
team last season, he with Chappie' Nc
Kay made up the premier pair of ends
in the league and lit was GallWan's
long runs after receiving the forward
pass that many times put the red and
white yards nearer their opponents
goal. He was an almost infallible
gamer by this pretty play of modern
football. being sure dependence for
a good gain when the Academy needed
to cover a few more chalk marks to
the goal. This year it is probable that
he will be seen in the backfeld, where
he will be equally valuable to the
Academy and terror to the opposing
eleven.
Captain Gallivan's athletic fame
rests not only on his football proweSs.
9ut he has made record as one of
he : t of amateur pitchers in this
vicinity. twirling for the champion

The Pittsburg leader never played

PIRATES HAVE A CHANCE.
Modest Manager Clarke Ventures a
Prediction-can't Compare Wagner
and Cobb.

Says Fred Clarke, manager of the
Pittsburgs. when asked about the fin
ish of the season:
It's like this. No manager can win
a pennant by picking a team, and no
writer can pick winner when base
ball title is at stake. remnants are
not won by managerial hot air or by
newspapers. Championships are won
on the grass. Catch on?'

Clarke hit the bull's1eye.

think the Pirates have an excellent
chance the way matters stand today,
but [ don't discount the Giants and

''Pittsburg has eight more games to
play with the Cubs, and l really think
the championship hinges on the re-
suits in those contests. The Pirates

The gentle Mr. Clarke, however,
waxed optimistic when asked for his
opinion of the great Honus Wagner.
This was Sir Fred's tribute to the

II consider Wagner the greatest ball
