TESTIMoNY,REvEALS THE
LIFE OF LOUIS LEVINE

LIT T. VI. IOO1O LEVINE
Today's proceedings before the
police civil service commission
were more in the nature of sordid
revelations of the life of Louis
Levine. the West Side dive keep
er, than, disclosures of corrup-
ton among the police officials.
Sensational testimony was prom
isedo when Barney Grogan, re-
puted boss of the West Side, took
the stand this afternoon to con-
tradict Levine's statement that
Grogan had been paid $3.50 as
protection money"
Levine was forced to tell of
his relations with women, and
nonchalant1y admitted having
lured a woman with two children
away from her husband. He also
told of numerous other women
with whom he had lived, and the
attorneys for the defense tried
unsuccessfully to force the adj
mission he had taken their earn
ings, and had also sent one, of
them to Panama when the canal
work started, afterwards bring
ing her. back. @
Levine blandly said he hadn't
done an honest days work in Is
years.
Z Before going on the stand
Grogan charged there was a con-
spiracy afoot to discredit the
mayor and some of his strongest
supporters. He was expected to
deny ever having received money
from Levine. |

ANOTHER HAMMER
GOES FOR HARVEY

Sporting Editor EVENING JOURNAL.
Regarding the item that Mr.. Harvey
had in your paper about the city
championship, l want to know who
fremont is. We all know that Tre-
mont won the pennant in the Semi
League last season. We also know
there was no fremont team this sea-
son, except a picked team that played
New Castle last Saturday. l think it is
a joke for Mr. Harvey to ask a team
that has played all season to play
him for the city honors. Parkside and
Highland are now battling for the
honors which Harvey would endeavor
to wrest away from them. under
stand that three of Tremonts old
players are under contract with
Highland This being the case, how
could fremont play them To think Of
playing Highland would be ridiculous
DUPONT turned them down, so will
Highland and Parkside as we do not
recognize them. It would be different
if the challenge had come from a team
that had played all season, but as
they have not, they might as we'll keep
quiet. If fremont wants to play for a
championship why not play Old
Swedes and If they beat them maybe
they can get game with some higher
class team. fremont might as we'll
keep quiet, for we have said our piece
and as for a game. it is all off.
Respectfully,
A Parkside and Highland Fan.

what he considered IL at the time.
He did not know that a seed had been
planted in his heart which was not
destined to germinate for a long
while He knew that this case was
in some respects different from his
many other affairs. but he did not
consider It Sny more serious.
It was four years before he met
Miss Southwood again. He was
walking on the principal street Of Gin
cinnati. swinging a cane, beaver
on his head. a velvet collar on his
frock coat. n profusion Of cravat on
his bosom. his tight trousers strapped
down over his instep, in short, dressed

to a lady about twenty-one years old.
and she was looking at him intently.
In an instant he recognized the girl
he had hirted with on the Mississippi
and Tilted at New Orleans.
Naturally he was embarrassed. There
was no expression in Miss Southwood's
face sufficiently defined for him to tell
how she felt toward him. He stopped
10 speak to her, standing uncovered
and asked If he might walk with her
Receiving permission, he Joined her,
stammering things TO her which she,
on her part, received with composure.
She had been through the agony of
! getting over a first love and a first tilt,
and he could see no traces OF suffer
ing. of reproach or Of forgiveness. All
seemed to be neutralized or. rather,
fused into an absolute nothingness.
Storms walked with her some ten
minutes. at first trying to regain his
equipoise, then to discover some indi-
cation OF the young ladys feelings to
ward him. In the latter he failed. But
since there was no indication OF un,
friendliness he made bold to hint that
he would like TO renew the acquaint
ance. Before parting Miss South
wood invited him TO come to see her
the next afternoon at 2 o'clock. He
accepted. and they parted.
At the appointed hour Storms, hav
ing summoned up all his win power
courage, adroitness TO win again and
win TO keep what he had won and
thrown away, went TO call on Miss
Southwood. He found a number of
guests present, and a few minutes
after his entrance the lady stood UP
TO be married
This was Roland Storms last affair

Meet

Not only will Wilmington witness
for the first time Jimmy" Dunlap
and Johnny" Gallagher. the fast dis
tance runners Of Philadelphia. but
one Of the greatest bits Of raiong is
also assured between these men when
they meet at Horse Show Park next
Saturday. Keen rivalry has existed
between these athletes for some time,
owing to the fact that Dunlap trav-
elled the five miles at Pittsbug last
month I'm faster time than Gallagher
has ever gone the distance, but It
remains to be seen n Dunlap can de-
feat his competitor. Both men will
be on scratch in the-mile event and
as the track is a half mile one there
should be one Of the most exciting
contests ever witnessed in the Middle
Atlantic Division Of the Amateur
Athletic Association.

Roland Storms. travelling between st.

SEAFORD DOES

BOYS WOULD COME UP
DETERMINED TO WIN

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
STAFFORD, Del, Sept. 16-while all
the bali chatter is being run off in
Wilmington and clubs of that city are
playing for championship honors, Sea-
ford is resting quietly knowing that
some Of these Wilmington Champions
will have to reckon with her before
they can establish their rights to the
state championship title When the
locals had defeated all its opponents
It layed claim to this enviable title
and offered TO defend It against all
comers. But evidently DUPONT and
the other Wilmington clubs are too
busy with champion city games to
listen to seaford.
However, Frank Dawson. who is
now manager of the locals glances at
some jotings in THE JOURNAL.
These little notes. while Of no great
significance, lead Dawson to believe
that Seaford is not forgotten, and
will eventually get in with the big
'uns' before the season ends When
interviewed Dawson seemed jubilant
over the fact that il was possible tnat
the team winning the Wilmington
City Championship would play Sea-
ford for the championship of Della
ware.

why shouldn't we VIM" he said. Our

Seaford complained about the VIII
mington umpire officiating at the
game last year Some Of the fans said
that he gave Seaford some raw deals
at the opening of the game. When

MORRIS LOOKS
LIKE HAS BEEN
Flynn Hands Out Awful
TrOunCinC to OkIahOma'S
White Hope
SHOWS LITTLE REAL
POWER AS SCRAPPER

NEW YORK. Sept ia sadder
but a wiser man, Carl Morris awoke
today and gazed on the wreckage OF
one of the best advertised white
hopes in Johnson's history. The de-
bris was none other than Carl himself.
Some of the casualties were one
broken nose, one tightly closed eye,
several missing teeth, cuts and bruises
too numerous to mention and one
cheek puffed to twice its normal size.
Morris had a very terrifying ex-
perience last night. His ten-round
bout with Jim Flynn at Madison
Square Garden was the goriest New
York has seen in many years-Morria
supplying most the gore. The giant
Oklahoman was at no time a match
for his diminutive adversary and was
given an awful trouncing. 1t was
generally conceded that as a white
hope Morris was quite hopeless, but
surely showed gameness.
During the last few rounds, the
slaughter became so inhuman that
hardened old fight fans at the ring
side begged Morris to quit, but the
big fellow was game to the core and
was right on the JOB to receive all
Flynn could send And Flynn ham,
mered and hammered until the ring
looked like a busy day at the stock
yards.
Morris. big as he was, showed littla
real power as a scrapper. If Lii
Artha could have seen him he would
probably have expired from mirth.
The giant is strong and willing. but is
one of the most amateurish sluggers
that ever aspired to Johnson's crown.
Some experts think he may improve
with time, but for the most part
those witnessing last nights mill be-
lieve him a has been" already.
In compliance with the present New
York law, the referee gave no formal
decision. In this case, however, mono
was needed.
