JACKSON DIES today PFE|STkR TO PITCH
For Hamilton Against the
Locals Here Sunday.

With Jack Pfeister, formerly of the
Chicago Cubs pitching for Hamilton,
"Our Boys" are facing a stiff game at
Athletic park Sunday afternoon. This
will be Jacks last appearance in the
K. I. o. league, as he is going to Min
neapolis next week. Jack is one of the
old guard who handled the leather pill
for the Cubs in their championship
days. He once beat New York out of
the pennant. Pfeister is still a grand
pitcher and will add much strength to
the Minneapolis A. A. pennant chasers.
Richmond will have the same lineup
as last Sunday, with either Belts or
Johnson as pitcher. Wollenhaupt will
play right field again. The Hamilton
ians, although they have not played
sensational ball this year, have a
strong team, and with Jack Pfeister
putting over his curves and fancy
shoots, the hitting ability of the locals
will be tried to the limit. The game
will be called at 8 o'clock.

HAVANA, June 22.-Steps were be-

prosecute Congressman Andre, editor
of the conservative organ Ell Dia,
which is openly accusing President
Gomez of conspiracy with Gen. Esten-
OF, the negro insurgent commander-in-
chief, whose uprising brought about a
reign of terror through murder, pill
age and rapine. Ell Dia has called up
on the court to investigate alleged
facts which 1t boldly sets forth to sus-
tain its charge.
According to this paper Estenoz has
been a frequent visitor at the National
palace during the past year and kept
Gomez informed of the progress Of the
conspiracy. From many of these inter.
views, the paper charges, Estenon
went directly to Oriente province
where he conferred with his lesser
