ARE EX0NERATED
In Ticket Scalping Scandal in Connec-
ton With World Series--Incident
is Now Closed.

Cincinnati, O.. Jan, 6.-The final lid
was clamped and sealed yesterday on
the celebrated ticket scalping scandal
that rufiled the baseball horizon after
the world series in New York and Phil
adelphia last October.
While the national baseball commits
sion gathered enough evidence to show
wholesale ticket scalping had occurred
in both cities, the evidence indicated that
neither the New York National nor the
Philadelphia American League club own
ers, managers, players or employees were
in collision with the sealpers.
The commission holds the charges Of
the press at the time were justified but
scores a number of people who offered
to produce proof, but failed to deliver
any evidence of value.
In addition to generating both clubs,
the commission praises them for the
precautions taken against soalping.
State and municipal legislation against
scalping is urged,

report yesterday from the physicians in
attendance upon Rev. Clarence V. t.
Richeson that the minister is in good
health and well able to go to trial on
Jan. Is.
A telegram from Yonkers, n. Y. says
that Miss Violet Edmands, who is want
ed by District Attorney Pelletier as a
witness against Rev. C. V. T. Rieheson,
to whom She is engaged, is in that city.
1t is claimed that Miss Edmands has
been living with relatives who have
studiously kept her presence as secret
as possible.
Miss Edmands first visited her uncle,
Rudolph Reeder, president of the New
York Orphan asylum. but lately she has
been dividing her time between the
Reeders and the Hapgoods, who are
closely connected with the Edmands fam
ilv. When Mr. Reeder was asked if
Miss Edmands could be seen, he at first
denied ever having heard of her. Then
he admitted the relationship. Rev.

Newark, n. j., Jan o.. Progressive Re
publican leaders in New Jersey will prob
ably place Colonel Roosevelts name on
the national primary ballot, without
asking his permission, according to a
statement made here yesterday by Ever
EFT Colby. member of the state Pro-
gressive league and progressive Republi-
can candidate for nomination as United
States senator.
Mr.. Colby said that the league would
hold meeting at an early date TO
determine its choice for the presidency.
Leaders in Essex county want Col
onel Roosevelt while those in Hudson
county favor La Toilette, Mr.. Colby
said.
Concerning the action of William H..
Mackay, former postmaster of Passaic,
in sending Colonel Roosevelt a petition
signed by l,004 Republicans asking his
consent as to the use of his name on
the ballot, Mr. Colby said; 81 knew moth
ing of il until / read the papers this
morning but it seems to me to be the
wrong way to go about it. What the
progressive Republicans of New Jersey
should do and what they probably will
do is to go ahead and place Colonel
Roosevelt's name on the ticket without
asking his permission"

ent packing companies previously ae-
quired by the Armour, Swift and Nor
ris interests, were given the jury yes
terday in the trial of the ten Chicago
hackers charged with conspiracy in re-
straint of trade. The articles of in
corporation of the National Packing COM
panv. which, the government contends,
was the instrument used by the defend
ants to continue the operations of the
alleged old pools, were read to the jury
by District Attorney Wilkerson, togeth-
err with the official minutes of the first
meeting of the incorporators, held March
Is, 1908 in Jersey City. Arthur Colby,
a director, assistant secretary and as
sistant treasurer of the National Pack
ing company, was the fourth witness
called by the government. He was ques-
toned regarding the methods OF accounts
used by the company.
Mr.. Colby was in the wholesale jew
elry business in the East until 1908,
when he came to Chicago and obtained

Kansas City, who finished his testimony
Yesterday. He gave the companys net
nrofits for 1890 as 5000 SIS in the dressed
beef department. based on the slaughter
90 2O4 $50 animals An analysis of these
figures showed that the company made
but three cents profit on the dressed
meat of each steer killed, but the fat
OF each animal yielded a profit of forty
two cents. The profit ON hides was
thirty-seven cents head and on the
glue manufactured from hoofs it was
eighteen cents. The profits from the
fat was fourteen times that yielded by
the dressed meat and the profit from
the hides was nearly as much. The
money made from glue was six times
as much as that made from the sale
Of the fresh meat, according to Mr..
Miles. Special Counsel Sheean spent
several hours in an effort to compel the

GOOD FISHING
 AT FIRE HALL
Trout Block Holes In Suction Screen While Cistern is
 Being Emptied

Men engaged in sinking the cistern at the fire house were somewhat puzzled when the en- zine engaged in pumping out tn, inflow refused to longer perform it's duty. Upon making an exam anation it was found that the holes in the suction screen were all filled with fish ranging in length from four to eight inches. The second screen, near the pump, was also found blocked by fish of a smaller size.
 It is thought the fish were brought into the spring branch during the floods and that later on when the cold weather came on they sought a more comfort able place under the engine house. As the men gaiay depth Tn the cistcrn the infteW ,increas- as. 1t is thought that ftAe Wa ter will permit sinking the well four or five more feet in depth the water supply will be ample Tor any demand made upon il.
