SUSPENDED
(By United Press Leased Wire.)


PHILADELPHIA, May 21. -
Ty Cobb must remain indefinitely
suspended from the American
league as punishment for his
action in striking fan in the New
York bleachers last week.
This decision was reached this
afternoon after a two hours con-
ference of the baseball magnates
of the American league here. The
ostracized Georgian's fellow play
ers of the Detroit Tigers were re-
instated with fines of 500 each
for remaining out of the game
two days on a sympathetic strike
with Cobb.
The magnates pledge them
selves to the protection of players
from insults.

than half an inch in two days.
There were over three inches last
May, said Cover. This month is
Just about normal.
We may have a wet June, how
ever. The average is 2.19 inches
and we only got so inch last
June and they'll probably try to
make up for it.

R|CHESON DIES
BETTER THAN
He LIVED
(By United Press Leased Wire.y

BOSTON, May 21.-The Rev.
Clarence V. T. Richeson. slayer of
Avis Linnel, Hyamis High school
girl, went to his death In tie cleo
trio chair at Charlestown prison
at 1910 a. m. today without q
whimper.
The young Virginian, who was
expected to die cravenly, was the
coolest man in the death cham
ber, going to his doom apparently
unafraid.
When Warden Bridges arrived
at Richeson's cell shortly after
midnight Rlcheson was singing.
The official waited until the last
verse was finished, then told the
condemned man that his time had
come.
Il am ready to go with you,"
Richeson said quietly. "There will
be no scene"
With body erect and eyes look
ing straight ahead Richeson
marched to the death chamber.
There he surveyed the death in
struments and seating himself in
the electric chair, closed his eyes,
and moved his lips in prayer.
This finished, he glanced curious
ly at the straps and electrodes
and assisted the officials to buckle
the harness.
He Even Smiled.
The rubber mask was put on
on his head upside down and the
former pastor smiled as 1t was re-
moved and correctly replaced.
The current was turned on at
12:10:02. Richeson's muscles
twitched slightly as the 1900
volts coursed through his body.
Chaplain Herbert Stebbins al
most collapsed after the execu-
tion.
ut was not the misery or hor-
ror of the thing that shook me-"
he said. 1T was the heroism dis
played by that man at death. II
was revelation and a miracle
such as God only can bring about.
Chaplain Praises Him.
Until he was pronounced dead
/ could not believe that this poor
sinner who had confessed so
much weakness and cowardice
would be able to die SO courage
ously. Richeson died far bet
ter man than he ever lived"
Richeson's body was claimed by
his brother, Douglas Richeson Of
Chicago. It will be sent to
Lynchburg, Va, to be buried.

Scores Richeson's Pastor.

NEW YORK, May 21.-De-
nunciation of what he termed the
mock religious atmosphere" sur
rounding the electrocution of
Richeson, was voiced here today
by Rev. DR.. Madison Peter, prom
inent Baptist minister of New
York.
s'It is just such mock soIem-
nifty that most horrifies a harden-
ed person." he said. "If the Rev.
Mr.. Johnson really asked Riche-
son: Are you ready to die for
Jesus sake?' IL was the worst ira
vesty ON the church and religion
ever coming to my notice.
"Richeson did not die for the
sake of Jesus Christ. He died
to satisfy the demands of justice.
Such things only glorify MUIR
der"

HOME SAVINGS BANK
BUYS PROPERTYF
NORTHEAST BRANCH
Site At Eighth and H Streets
Purchased-Building
Planned. 49,.

The Home Savings Bank today pur-
chased the property at the northwest
corner of Eighth and II streets north
east and will erect new branch bank
ing house there. The property has a
frontage of twenty-four feet and a
depth of eighty feet to an alley, giving
site ample for large building. Plans
for the new building have not been
drawn, but it Is the plan of the bank to
erect a modern banking house of the
one-story type and to move its north
east quarters from their present loca-
tion at the southwest corner of Seventh
and II streets northeast.
The present northeast branch bank
was opened about five years ago. Its
business has grown rapidly until the Of
fiCia;s CT the institution find that the
quarters are too small for present and
future needs, hence the plan to remove
to a new building which will be on a
larger scale.
The location of the proposed building
is now regarded as one of the mos.
east section of the city. The Capital
Traction Company's new Eighth street
line intersects the Columbia line of the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany at this point. Officials of the bank
regard the issuance of free transfers
between the companies as a certainty
of the near future, assuring an even
more busy intersection.
AS soon as possession of the prope"ty y
can be had, in a few months, the work
OF construction will be commenced.

was at the end of her resources.

NEW YORK, March 26-The reaction
which started In the closing hour yes

the reaction was checked before the

Considerable attention was paid to the

One noticeable feature of the market
is the interest Of the public in the bull

pending upon this awakened interest
throughout the country to help them
