made the subject of newspaper COM
ment under large headlines you are
correct. In every other sense you are
wrong. Every one to whom / judged
an explanation due has received one.
Several Of the principal members Of
the Catholic hierarchy In America are
fully acquainted with all the circum-
stances, as are also number of men,
prominent in public life. and all my
connections and friends. For the en-
lightenment Of any others who may
be interested, have no hesitancy in
making the following brief statement:
Violated Ordinances.
The most that could be truthfully
alleged against me was that had vio-
lated q municipal ordinance and was
consequently arrested one evening by
an overzealous policeman who was
ignorant of my identity. This police
mans accusation and the insinuation
he afterward felt constrained to add,
in order to vindicate his hasty action,
We're dismissed by the police commits
sary who. after hearing my explana-
ton. declared the matter closed. And
there this vulgar and otherwise trivial
incident would have ended had any
other than l been involved in it.
News of the occurrence having leak
ed out through the indiscretion of a
police official, certain persons with
whom my position at the Vatican had
long since rendered me unpopular,
saw therein the long-wished-for pre-
text for an attack upon me. Malice
and ingenuity combined to foment an
artificial scandal out of meager ma
terials, and. as Misrepresentation was
busy. my best defense was to ask for
legal proceedings to probe the state
ment OF the policeman.
This obtained in response to my
letter addressed to the royal procura-
tor. and the final outcome was to en-
ttrely exonerate me. The verdict Of
tho Roman court was the most favor
able possible in Italian law, and the
judges went further to declare that no
reasonable suspicion Of any miscon.
duct could attach to me.
No Case Against Him.

been obtained / secured official cop.

Richmond, strengthened by the ad-
dttion Of Ellington. the Ohio State
league recruit, at center and the prop
er amount of confidence was able to
dsfeat Elwood in a fast. exciting and
interesting polo game at the coliseum
last evening. The locals played to-
gether as they should for the first
time this year, and also had their play
systematized. The crowd was one OF
the largest of the season and all
thoroughly enjoyed it.
Looks Like Real Team.
The Richmond team under its pre-
sent line up impressed the fans as
being five man team instead OF a
two man team as the other clubs in
the league appear to be. All five Of
the locals did creditable work. Lam
caster started out with a bad inning
but soon recovered himself and play
ed his usual good game. Probably the
hardest worker In the entire game
was "Ikey' Houghton. He played ev-
erywhere and was always where the
ball was rolling. Sharp played we'll
in the first two periods but his hard
efforts winded him and he had to re-
tire In the third period. Bulla who
took his place played the best game
Of his career as an Indiana polo lea
que star.
Ellington, the recruit, was in the
game at all times and his work was
a revelation to the fans in compari-
son with what they had been seeing.
Costing works we'll with his new team
mate.
For Elwood williams at first rush
and Smith at half back worked well.
