WOMAN SAYS
SHE WAS SHOT
Police Unable to Find Any
Evidence Of Assault.

Considerable mystery seems to
surround the finding of Mrs. Mildred
Cody, forty-three years old, uncon-
scious on the floor of her bungalow
at 450 Annadale road, Annadale, by
her husband, Maurice J. Cody, at
$50 o'clock last night when he re-
turned home from his office In Man
haitian. DR.. David Coleman, of Am
boy avenue, Tottenville, who WAS
the first one summoned by the hus-
band, found the still uncon-
scious in the hall of her home and
after she had come to sufficiently to
give any statement said she had
been assaulted by a burglar who had
gained entrance to the house. A re-
volver was found under the icebox
but no evidence of it having been
shot off. The police were notified
and Sergeant John P. Smith, of the
Richmond Borough Detective Blu
reau, and District Attorney Albert
Each were soon on the scene. From
what could be learned from Mrs.
Cody when she had become partly
conscious it is said that an attempt
had been made by James Carr to
assault and rob her for revenge be-
cause she had surprised and cap
tured him in her home in Bayonne
three or four years ago when he had
entered it while she and her hus-
band were out. Sergeant Smith and
the police, who searched the place,
were unable to find that Mrs. Cody
had been shot at. The closest e
animation showed no place where
the bullet had struck and it vas not
possible for a bullet fred as she said
to have passed out of an open win
dow. The revolver found neal Mrs.
Cody had six chambers; five were
loaded. Mr.. Cody Is the editor of
the Lockwood Trade Journal and is
a highly education man. He is away
from home all day and returns home
every night at the same time.

STATION CLUB AT
LAST WINS A GAME
Nolan's Lowly Tailenders Best the
League Leaders After Losing
Twenty-Five Straight.

There Is Joy In the Station camp to-
night, for that club. after losing every
game which IT has played this season,
sprang the surprise Of the year by fairly
and sQuarely beating the Southern nine.
which club has practically won the pen
Dsnt In the r. r. Y. NJ. c. A. League.
Judge Nolan. the manager of the victori-
Gus nine, deserves the greatest amount
of credit for having stuck to a losing
club all season, and Is due the congrstu-
lations which he is receiving to-day from
his many friends for plotting his lowly
tailenders to a win over the naughty
leaders.
For the first three innings the game
was a nip-and-tuck affair. the count be-
ing to 3 at the beginning of the fourth.
Both Heaton and Booth had a try on
the mound. but the third saw Stroebel.

stable, on the mound. Strcebel steamed
along nicely for the remainder of the
third and retired the side in order in the
fourth, two of the batters whiting on
three. But In the fifth. with two men
down, the slaughter started. Three err
rors, a hit batsman. and four hits In
row tell the story. the fifth ending with
the count 10 TO in favor of Station, the
league leaders having scored one In the
fourth. Southern tried hard to come
back. and sent Gregory to the mound to
finish the game. Two runs in the sixth
and another brace in the seventh was
the nearest the Southernites came to
knotting the count. Station scored again
in the eighth. and there the game was
called on account of darkness. with the
score standing: Station, IL: Southern, s.
The banner play was made in the first
frame by Knott. who, after falling down.
