Nearly every White SoX fan is OPP

hopeful that the team will land the

tional league. is pointed out as a big
mark in favor Of the youngsters chap

The fans of Chicago were given an
excellent chance to see the new lineup

LYNCH WORKING
ON F0GEL CASE
National League Presiden,
Says Philadelphia Owner
Can be Expelled.

Philadelphia, Nov. 4.-Preident
Thomas J.. Lynch. Of the National
league. who has thus far been very
reticent about the alleged charges Of
PRECEDENT Horace Fogel OF the Phila-
delphia club. to the effect that the Ma
tional league race wa fixed" so that
New York would be able to win the
pennant through favoritism by the
umpires. broke his silence today. and
said that Fogei's charges bore their
own refutation, and the only question
at issue now was whether or 20 Foyer
really mad the charges. Mr.. Lynch
tntimates hat trouble il in store for
Fogcl If the charges are proved
against him.
The National league has retained
John Conway Toole as counsel in the
case, which will be heard in this city
at a special meeting of the National
league on November rs. Mr.. Toole
had n long conference with President

ing evidence to prove that Mr.. Fogel
made the statements attributed to him.
I'Ogci Makes Denial.
The Philadelphia president now de-
MES that he made my such state
ment that the race was or

pennant. 1t is stated. however. that
the league has evidence that MI. Fogel
did rake these statements in Phila-
delphia during the last series there
with the Giants early in September.
Later Mr.. Fogel is said to have repeat
ed these charges in Chicago. and the
National league. 1t Is said, has EVIL
dencc to show where he repeated the
charges in Chicago.
President Lynch stated that ne had
been advised that the league has COM
plet.- Jurisdiction to investigate the
question as to whether Mr.. Fogel has
or has not made the statements at
tributed to him and as to their truth
or falstiy If made by him.
League Empowered to Expcl.
Mr.. Lynch says he is further advised
that If 1t develops that Mr.. Fogel has
made the statements which have been
printed as ccming from him. that the
league undoubtedly has the full right
to in1ict upon MI. Fogel such punish
ment as seems to tit his offcnse to the
extent Of barring him forever from
amy further participation in National
league affairs.
Mr.. Lynch states that the officials Of
tho league are unanimous in their in
sistence on Il complete investigation Of
the matter. and they will take proper
action if it is found that any person

has taken a big load off the shoulders
of Manager Callahan if he pilots the

Methodist Episcopal Church.

For several years past the Congre-

church work at Heber and about a
year ago similar work was taken up
in the Jasper school district 1t. has
been found, however, that the number
of Methodist families is far in excess
OF those of any other denomination
and for this reason the Congregation
alists have disbanded their society and
the two places will be organized as
regular Methodist appointments.
Rev. Oliver Saylor of this city
preached for the Heber people last
Sunday afternoon and Rev. j. N. Cor
ner, Methodist pastor at Calexico, will
preach for them next Sunday after
noon, at which time church society
and Sunday school will be organized
A similar organization will take place

contracts upon terms fixed by the re-
ceiver and approved by the court.
In the meantime the dry lands need
water and the owners of them are
willing to pay for it. The receiver
tells them that they must deal only
with him, but they find that they can
not deal with him unless they make
terms that Judge Hutton decided to
be illegal and that may be so
considered by the higher court Mr..
Andrade, depositario of the Sociedad,
offers to deliver water at the rate of
fifty cents an acre foot without any
requirement of water stock, but he,
as an agent of the Southern Pacific, is
restrained by the court from demand
ing payment from any person for wat
er conducted through the canals in
Mexico and used Oh the American side.
Whether or not the injunction re-
strains him from accepting payment
voluntarily rendered for water deliv-
cred through gate in Mexico is a
question that has not yet been pre-
sented to the court.
The South Side Water Co., organiz-
ed to take over from No. / the Ash
and Alamitos canals and about 10000
acres Of land, of which 5000 acres are
dry because of the insufficiency of No

able to make terms with the receiver
and has been warned not to deal with
Mr.. Andrade. The receiver has de-
manded bonus of $40 per acre from
the company, which would absorb it's
entire capital, and the company re-
fuses to pay it. The farmers in the
company hold about 10000 shares of
No. 1 stock, and so long as they hold
that they can get water for the land
now under irrigation, but they cannot
reclaim the 5000 acres of dry land in
the district until new deal shall be
made. Their desire is to issue new
stock at $40 a share to the owners
of the dry land and use the proceeds
to clean out the neglected Alamitos
and insure delivery of water to all the
land in the district. They are still
negotiating with the receiver in the
hope of finding a solution of the prob
lem.
