CANNON WANTS
SILENCE FROM WEER

Sporting editor THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Allow me space in your paper to
again take up that much discussed
Newport Highland affair. Allow me
to tell Mr.. Weer that the Star backs
my opinion exactly; that is, you
couldn't keep quiet or come back to
your senses if President Abrahams
had given you the pennant. Abrahams'
first statement was far too square;
no one else would have let you of so
easy. But you kept on talking, and I
presume he got tired of it, and COM
pletely reversed his Monday decision
so that you could have your much
desired hearing. You had it and two
sporting editor, and an experienced
baseball man, decided there was moth
ing to the affair and let the game stand
That didn't satisfy you. Another let
ter went to the Star, and that is not
all, you talked your head almost of in
New Castle about the president.

ways stood for will enlighten you on
other matters.

tion of It will surely cause me to do
so.
Thanking you Mr.. Editor for this

SOUTH SIDE ANIMAL
NO EASY MARK FOR HITTERS

An interesting sidelight on the
heavy hitting which has been done by

in the outfeld Of each OF seven dia-
monds Of the league, as we'll as In
the parks OF many other leagues
throughout the country. In the en-
tire country during the season these
signs were hit 13s times, which al
$50 crack for the lucky ball player
meant an outlay of $500 in cash by
the company. Moreover, in these
parks where the bulls appeared there
have been 2,460 home runs made, in
return for which the heavy hltters
have received 1000 pounds OF to-
bacco
In the Tri-State League parks the
bull sign has been hit ten times, for
total OF $500 in cash There havo
been III home runs made on these
Tri-State parks, for a total OF 526 1-2
pounds Of tobacco. The Tri-State
League record follows:

Cruelty Against Second
Mother
JUDGE ORDERS
CASE INVESTIGATED

Mrs. Josephine Sidwing, of No 7OS
Madison street was in City Court this
morning charged with breach of the
peace. The step-children of Mrs. Sid
wing contend that she treats both
them and her children in cruel
manner.
Frank Savino testified that last night
his stepmother was abusing his two
year-old sister who is delicate when
his sister objected and the step
mother attacked the girl. When he
interfered he said she hit him on the
right hand, scratched his neck, at
tackled him with a broom. chair and
later with a butcher knife. He also
said she went to the sick bed Of his
father and taking all of the covers
from him tried to make him leave
the house. The man was too sick to
get out of the bed, the son said.
Nellie Savino and Mary Savino, two
sisters of the witness, corroborated
the testimony.
After hearing the evidence. Judge
Cochran referred the case TO Humane
Agent Stout with instructions TO re.
port to the court next Wednesday.
Pasquale Di Cosstandino, alleged tc
be the other man in the case, created
disorder when the officer arrested
Mrs Sidwing. He was fined SIS anC
costs, which he paid.

Jail Breaker Recaptured, Now Suspected
of Enficing Boys Away From Home

"No sir. / did not. the only thing l
bought was a pint and a half pint of
whiskey and some beer and grubb.
We all spliced in to pay for IL"
Davis said that the Simpson boy
drank beer and whiskey and when he
and the colored boy left him they
went towards the heart of New Castle.
When asked by the boys where they
could make money Davis said he told
them that the south was a good place.
He told Mayor Rodney that he did not
know whether the Simpson boy ran
away from home or not but he want
ed to get rid of him.
''Why didn't you get rid of him?'
asked Mayor Rodney.
well. Mr.. Rodney you know l am
too big hearted to drive anybody
away from me-" was his reply.
Davis was taken back and forth
along the story Of his travels with all
OF the acuteness of a lawyers tactics,
but did not loose his composure in
the least. He declares that he does
not know where Simpson is, nor does
he know the name of the colored boy
who was with him.
According to the story told by
Davis he has been all over the country
since he broke the lock in the door
of the New Castle lock up. He has
worked in Jacksonville, Fla, and
seemed to have preferred the water
fronts. Before coming here this time
he said he was engaged in unloading
bananas from boats OF the Merchants
and Miners Line in Baltimore. He
denies that he enticed the boys from
Philadelphia and says they joined him
in Baltimore.
He gave the names of the persons
he met and their homes and this

after leaving Baltimore two weeks
ago.

According to the evidence of Mrs.
Annie Mcclellan Of No. 321 East Sew

AUGUSTA, Ca. Oct. 6-The Georgia

tied up today and provisions are be-
ing taken to towns along the line by
wagons from points on other rail-
roads.
An effort was made today to induce
the officials of other lines to send in
an engine to move a train stalled
south Of here by lack Of water, but all
requests were refused as the other
roads feared becoming involved in the
strike.
The Georgia and Florida Company

injunction today, asked Judge Shep-

Two Negroes Killed in Riot.
So far the rioting. which has pre-

various points along the line.
This Is the sixth day since a train
was operated on the line and the
strikers believe that the officials will
soon make overtures to the men.

Thieves This Time Steal
Both Money and P. 0. Phones

Thieves again paid a visit to the
Postofice. last night, and robbed the
telephone booths. This time the rob
bers took telephone with the cash
box, severing the wires with a knife.
The receiver was found in the booth,
but the phone was gone. IL was found
this morning in an areaWay on the
Orange street side of the POstOitce,
having been passed through a win
dow which was held fast by a news
paper. This piece of paper was found
i'm a waste basket just outside the
swing room of the letter carriers
which is located in the basement OF
the building.
The fact that the phone was found
on the premises and the newspaper
which held the window fast also was
found within the building, leads the
Postofice authorities 10 believe that
some one acquainted with the Interior
of the PostofIice committed the theft.
The robbery was committed about D
o'clock this morning as near as POST
master Jester, custodian of the build
ing, can learn, and about SIS was Sc
cured by the thief. The telephone
booths have been robbed on several
occasions but heretofore the thieves
We're satisfied merely to carry on the
cash. This time the entire phone was
carried away. When found it wa.
broken and battered, and what makes
it appear that somebody acquainted
with the building did the job, is th'
fact that a hatchet belonging in th'
basement of the structure was usel
in demolishing III machine.

phones in the corridor Of the Post
