Indianapolis. June 4-Some time ago
Russell B. Harrison noticed in the news
papers that a man had been arrested
for stealing chickens, and that the judge
before whom he was arraigned released
him on a promise that he would Join the
army. Harrison wrote to Maj. Gen. Wood
protesting against thieves being permitted
to join the army to escape sentence, and
to-day received a reply in which Gen.

of the Cubs. has secured a large block
of stock in the Boston club, which made
the deal possible last Saturday.
Larry Schahy, the former Washington
shortstop, part owner of the Troy team
in the New York State league, berched
himself the other day because of his
hitting.
Jack McInnis, the utility infielder on
the worlds champs, was placed at first
base last Saturday by Connie Mack and
he put up a fine game. He will probobly

Committee Fails to Learn sugar
Trust Secret workings.
Charles R. Heike, former secretary Of
the American Sugar Refining Company
during the Havemeyer. regime, was on
the stand before the Hardwick investi-
eating committee yesterday. For more
than five hours he was cross-examined
by the members of the committee in re-
gard to the inside workings Of the sugar
company from the time OF its organiza-
tion in 1891 until last July. when he re-
signed.
In spite Of vigorous questioning, prac-
tically no information was obtained from
him. At the outset Of the hearing Mr.
Heike explained that he did not enjoy
intimate business relations with the late
Henry o. Hayemeyer, former president
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pahy; that he was not a sugar expert,
and that his service as secretary Of the
company did not enable him to become
acquainted with all its affairs
The members OF the committee were
plainly disappointed, as they had hoped
TO obtain from Mr.. Heike much valuable
information concerning Mr.. Havemeyer's
management OF the corporation. Mr.
Heike win compiete his testimony to-
day. The next witness win be Lowell NJ.

COUSIN OF HILLES
JOY RIDE YCITIM
Mother of Wayne Moore Now
Visiting in Capital.

Once too often Wayne Moore Of Oma-
ha, Nebr., first cousin of Charles HiIles,
private secretary to President Taft, in
dulged in a joy ride. From injuries re-
ceiyed while enjoying that diversion early
Tuesday morning, he died in an Omaha
hospital yesterday.
With Moore in the automobile at the
time of the accident were several young
women whose identity has so far been
kept from the public. The report OF
Moore's injuries contained nothing to in
dicate that his companions had also been
hurt.
Moore's mother, who is an aunt Of
Secretary Hilles, is now in Washington
and Is staying at his residence Efforts
to interview either Mrs. Moore or Sec
retary Hilles last night were unavaiI-
ing.
According to advIces from Omaha,
Wayne Moore was a married man and
wealthy. Owing to his connection with
the Presidents secretary, he is we'll
known in official circles in Washington.
1t Is understood that Mrs. Moore's visit
to the Capital will be cut short on ac-
count of the death of her son. She prob
ably will leave for Omaha to-day.
