800 WITNESSES MAY Be
CALLED IN M'NAMARA CASE

LOS ANGELES. Cal. Oct. 16.-
A scurry for country clubs and
beaches marked Saturday, the end
of the first week of the Mcnamara
murder trial. When Judge Walter
Bordwell adjourned the case at
noon until today (Monday) the big
white hall of records, in which the
trial is being conducted, was de-
populated quickly, and few officials
could be found in the course CT
the afternoon.
District Attorney John d. Fred
ericks managed a trip out Of town,
as did some of his associates.
The seventy-two talesmen shared
in the general recreation, being
taken for ride in sightseeing
automobile set apart for their use
They returned late in the day, sun
burned and singing, and were lock-
ed up in the vacant court room

James B. Mcnamara, on trial for
the murder of Charles j. Haggerty
victim of the Los Angeles Times
explosion, was taken back to his
CELL wREre during the afternoon he
discussed the situation with his
brother, John j. Mcnamara, also un-
der indictment for murder The
brothers occupy cells across a little
corridor from each other
Attorney Clarence S. Darrow, the
chief counsel for the defense, and
Lecompte Davis, an associate, were
in conference together throughout
the afternoon, planning the work
of next week.
The brief week, interrupted by
two holidays, was sufficient to out
line the tremendous struggle now
beginning. Those who at the be-
ginning predicted a three months
trial, heightened this to six months
and that nine months or more may
have elapsed before the trials OF
the brothers are completed, seemed
the general opinion. A mcnth in
which to obtain a jury was held a
moderate estimate
Whether the 500 or so veniremen
remaining from the drawing made
the first of this year would suffice
to supply a jury was discussed with
the point in view that the trial
eventually might be pushed ont of
Los Angeles county for lack of iu-
rors and begin all over again. but
this idea was not largely consid-
cred by counsel for the defense.
Nevertheless, vigorous struggle
ever every nan in the jury box is
expected, and December is likely
to find the selective process still
going on.
External proceediLss, however,
were held of minor importance. com
pared with the declaration in court
frcm the defense that the case would
be regarded not alone as strpe

actions and the opinion in which la
Dor organizations were held by the
talesneH, would play a leading part

Philadelphia June 2S-The Phillies want another pitcher and an outfielder Although the pending deal with Brook lyn has dropped flat, President Fogel has not yet given up hope of being able to add an experienced outer gar dener to the clubs pay roll and also bolster up the small army of pitchers now in camp at Broad and Huntingdon streets by securing another mounds man.

 The Phillies were tipped off to the fact that Overall wanted to come back when they were in Chicago, and ever since Fogel has been trying to pull the right wires with Husk Chance to secure the hurling giant. The Phils are taking a chance providing they get Overall. Last year Overall did not have such glistening success as a hurler. although he won twelve out of eighteen games pitched. but, according to severe critics, Overall has seen his last day Naturally the Cubs will want something in living flesh for turning Overall over to the Phils if such a deal is engineered

Waterbury Republican,

After being pretty we'll used up by pitching in the batting practice pre- vious to the game, Callahan was chosen to oppose Bridgeport yesterday afternoon at Reidville Callahan des- pite this handicap did his part well and would have been returned a win ner had it not been for errors back of him. Two errors at critical stages. however allowed the Mechanics to win by the score of 2 to 1.
 Gibbs opposed Callahan on the slab and pitched excellent ball and was given good support. A. catch by Kauff in right field in the third inn ing was the feature of the game. With two out in that inning, Farrell soaked one on the nose and the ball looked good for a triple as it started on its way for the score board. Kauff did little sprinting, made a jump stuck up his gloved hand and grasped the ball. It was a pretty catch and the 300 rooters gave the visiting field CT the glad hand.
 For four innings Gibbs did not give hit and 1t was not until two were down in the fifth that Colvin connect ed with a safe one over the second cushion. He was immediately forced at second by Callahan. Waterbury had lots of chances to score but Gibbs was so effective at all times that LAiS NHdHlpS WcIo iuChy lO SOCuIS their lone run.
 Nichols was the Waterbury star. Three times he worked Gibbs for base on balls and each time he pill fered second. It was Nick who scor- ed the Champs lone run. in the eighth inning. He was past, stole second, took third on Farrell's grounder to Crook and scored on McDonald's sac rifice fly to Kauff. S
 Bridgeport's first run came in the second inning. After Ladd had been thrown out at first by Colvfn, Ruell doubled to right and stole. He then proceeded to work the delayed steal on Mcdonald and scored when the throw to second went past Needham-
 The visitors second and last run came in the sixth when Litschi sing led past Hoover and took second on Crooks sacrifice. Ladd hit to Colvin who fumbled and then with no chance to get the batter threw past Miller and Litschi scored.

TWO WOMEN GO UP IN
 AIR AT SAME TIME

Mineola. June 2s-For the first time since the sport of aviation was start ed in this country, two. women were in flying machines at the same field and time, yesterday. In addition. they flew in a fog, which made it almost impossible to distinguish them across the Mineola field, where they made their flights.
 Miss Harriet Quimby made two rounds in the Moisant monoplane. her first good flight alone, and Miss Blanche Scott was in Captain Thom- as Baldwin's biplane. and trying hard to catch and pass Miss Quimby. Miss Quimby came down and then went in, to the air again without stopping her engine.
 Just after the women had made their first round a heavy fog blew in from the ocean, but they kept at their task and made the other round before coming down. Miss Quimby keeping her lead throughout.
 Dr. H. M Walden who has had several mishaps in learning to fly, took advantage of the quiet air yes- terday morning, and flew to Hicks vile and return.

Another Triumph 5 For Cornell Crew
Co'umbia Leads Until Two Oars. men Collapse With Victory
 in Sight

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 2s-With bow man and stroke lying limp and senseless in their seats-rowed into utter exhaustion by a last cruel spurt the crew of Columbia University crossed the finish line yesterday after noon a length and half behind an again triumphant eight from Cornell. They were beaten after victory had seemed to be within their grasp from the very bang of the starting gun.
 But nature, rather than Cornell, de- feated them. Eddie Sage, No. 1 in the Blue and White boat, collapsed three hundred yards from the finish, heart broken, as the shell from Ithaca be- gan to draw away from him by inches, and his seven mates, losing his strength and carrying his dead weight, found their struggle infinitely fiercer than it had been, and it had been the fiercest ever seen on the river.
 George Downing, the stroke, tried to keep up the terrific pace without Sage. But 1t was beyond him, and he, too, slumped down over his oar fifty yards from the line.
 The other six, taking the stroke from Latenson at No. ', with glorious game ness still maintained the battle, but, of course, it was hopeless. The time was: Cornell, 20 minutes, 104-5 sec onds; Columbia, 20 minutes. Is 4-5 sec onds. Pennsylvania was third, after a brilliant struggle with Wisconsin, whom they nosed out in the last few yards, while Syracuse, far. far behind, was bad last.
 It was beyond all doubt the most thrilling varsity contest ever rowed on the historic old course.
 There was joy for the followers of the Morningside camp, though, in the fact that their freshmen crew tri- umphed by two lengths over Cornell, with Syracuse, Pennsylvania and Wis consin further back.
 The varsity four went to the 1tha- cans after a spectacular struggle with Syracuse, who finished only half a length behind. Columbia beat out the Red and Blue.

Beacty Flies
 The Gorge At
 Niagara Falls Cheered by 5000 People When He Makes Hair Raising
 Aerial Voyage

Niagara Falls. N Y. June 2S.- Cheered by fifty thousand persons, Lincoln Beachey yesterday flew over the horseshoe falls, down the gorge under :he steel arch bridge and land ed on the Canadian side of the tor rent.
 It was just before six o'cIock when MT. Beachey, in his Curtiss biplane. rose from Ninth and Niagara streets, disregarding the lowering clouds, which every moment threatened to send down torrents of rain. After circling to a height of about fifteen hundred feet he darted directly for flight to the very brink of the catar- act, seemed to hover there an instant and then, while the onlookers fairly held their breaths, executed a success sion of dutch rolls,'' until it seemed impossible his equilibrium could be sustained.
 Rising in a rapid spiral, he circled over the plunging waters twice and then shot in one long, swift rush straight under the upper steel bridge. In less time than it takes to tell it the aviator reappeared from under the bridge and dashed down the gorge to the north end of the city, whence he sped over to the Canadian sidn and landed. smiling and unconcerned at the Driving Park.
 Tt was the most exciting trip of my life," said Mr. Beachey after landing, and he immediately amour ced that he would repeat the flight today if the weather conditions are favorable.
 Few had believed MT. Beachev would attempt what seemed like ai- most certain death in the Niagara gorge. Many local men were sadder and wiser last night, for they were offering odds that not only would he fail if he made the attempt, but that he would not even start.
 Before the start MT. Beachey's com pan1ons endeavored to dissuade him from the attempt, pointing out tha almost certainty of failure from inc eddying ed air currents in the gorge and the surety of certain death that awaited him if he did fail Mr. Beachey only iaughed at the efforts
 What makes his feat even more daring is the fact that MT. BeacheV flew minus the front control. com. mon to all the Curtiss machines This portion of his biplane was broken off a short time ago and has never been replaced. VI OoCi

White Of Princeton
 Signs Up With Gianis
Tiger Pitcher Who Whitewashed Yale to Play Professional
 Bail.

S. V. White, Princeton's mainsta. in the box for three years, joined tf1s Giants yesterday. White has just graduated from Princeton and has de- cided to take up professional base ball. He will remain with the Giants the rest of the season, and will get a thorough trial. White was strongly recommended to the McGraw clan by Roaring Bil1' Clarke, who played with the Giants a few years ago. Clarke coached the Princeton nine this season.
 Steve White is regarded as one of the best right hand pitchers among the college men, and he considers him self fortunate to break Into the pro- fessionaI ranks with such a manager as McGraw. White pitched his last college game at Washington Park last week when he shut out Yale in the e- deciding game of the series. He was one of the big reasons why the Tigers overshadowed Yale and Harvard in baseball this year.

HARVARD MAKES BETTER
 TIME THAN YALE CREWS.
Time Trials Over and Crimson Fav-
 orite For Fridays Race.
Special from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 New London, June 2S.-Harvard's varsity and freshmen eights, today, are credited with faster time than Yale for the mile and two mile marks. As the Yale varsity eight has never gone over the full course at high speed, this season, Harvard's time for the race distance stands alone.
 The crimson varsity eight went mile in 4:37, yesterday and finished the two miles in 9:45. Yale's best time for the latter distance this sea son was 30:08. Very little betting money has shown up in this city as yet. Harvard is expected to open a strong favorite over Yale. Time trials are over, today, and until the Friday regatta the lightest possible work will be in order.
