CAPTAIN
OF VILE LANGUAGE

Additional charges were brought
against Captain Joseph A. Weber, of
Engine Company No. s, yesterday by
Colonel James r, Millikin. of the Civil
Service Commission, who accused the
former with using vile language about
him and the civil service body.
The charges supplemented those
brought by Dr.. Daniel l.. Mccormick,
who alleges that Weber charged him
with having falsified the records IN
the recent examination for battalion
chiefs. Colonel Mullikin said that the
captain had used unprintable language
about some of the acts Of the Civil
Service Board and about him, and that
the department should see that the of
fcer was properly disciplined.
Colonel Mullikin also informed the
board that Weber had written a vile
letter to Governor Wilson charging
fayoritism in the recent examinations.
and the colonel declared that the let
ter was not only insulting but false.

goes over the heads of the Fife Board
and the Civil Service Board With such
untrue and insulting charges he should
be made to prove them or be properly
disciplined" said Colonel Mullilsin-
President Weber. Of the Fire Board.

action of the grand jury.
Miss Van Ripper declared to the police
that she answered an advertisement
which called for chorus girls at a sal
airy of SIS a week. She went to Passaic
and was given employment. The first
week she says she was given $3.50,
which was all that Prince said he had.
A board bill was contracted and to a
man named Delaney she said she gave
q ticket for a diamond ring, which she
pawned. Delaney, she asserted, refused
TO give her back her pawn-ticket upon
demand.

by the Legislature and add to West
Side Park the block bounded by six
teenth and Eighteenth and
Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets

nues, and Rowley street and Seven
tenth avenue between Thirteenth and
Fourteenth streets. These last two
streets are not opened, but exist only
on the map. Fourteenth street, how
ever, is opened.

NAvIN AND BASE BALL LAW.
Detroit President Discussed New Ma
tional Agreement Weaknesses.

NEW YORK, February 24.-Frank j.
Navin, president of the Detroit base ball
club. was in the city for a short time
yesterday, and explained why he object
ed to the American League ratifying the
new national agreement. Mr.. Navin said
that the clause relating to interleague
waivers on purchased players was not
quite clear enough, and he held out until
the wording had been changed properly.
His objections were against the spirit OF
the agreement. for he is very much III
favor of the major leagues giving more
recognition to the minors. He said that
the changing of the clause had been in
trusted to President Ban Johnson, and
no doubt he and Chairman Hermann OF
the national commission had 1T salts
factorily settled by his time.
Mr. Navin has just returned from
Providence. where he and his associates
in the Providence club of the lnterna-
tional League gave dinner to the club
owners of that organization.
Manager Hugh Jennings was also pres
ent, and has gone to Ithaca for few
days to visit his Cornell friends. Jen-
nings is graduate of the Cornell Law
School, and coached the base ball team
there. He will go to Detroit early next
week and accompany the second squad
of Detroit players to Monroe, La, for
their spring training. The first squad of
youngsters will leave Detroit today, in
charge of Scout Joe Sugden, the old
catcher, who will coach the young pitch

Hedges this morning wired Manager
Griffith that he has released Clarke to

weeks. Griffith does not want Clarke and
so notified Hedges. who wired that he
would take the mater up with President
johnson and insist on the deal being
made.
Some six weeks ago Griffith refused to
waive on Clarke. He saw Hedges on
several occasions and Hedges informed
him that he would not let Clarke go for
the waiver price. but would take $1,000.
This Griffith refused to pay. A week ago
Hedges wrote again. stating that he
would let Griffith have Clarke for $500
and again Griffith turned the proposition
down, stating that he would not give
more than the waiver price In the mean
time he secured Williams from Boston
