stories of Graft Are Told.

Another startling story has reached
the prosecutor in the form of a writ
ten report by one Of his investigators
1t told how a woman. Annie Gray,
was reputed to have accumulated Il
fortune of more than 10000 as a
disorderly resort keeper. Backed by
a former sheriff and a onetime police
commissioner. according to informa-
ton available to the prosecutor, An
ME Gray conducted several of the most
noted resorts of their type in this city.
She will go before the grand jury with
an account of her underworld eX-
perlences, according to Mr.. Whit
mans expectations.
Samuel Levy, hotel man. went be-
fore the grand jury today to repeat
graft story he related to Mr.. Whitman
In this story he told of paying s75
monthly for the privilege of selling
liquor without license. once he re-
fused~to pay, he declared, and there
was a "fage raid on his hotel and he
was brought to court, but when he
slipped $75 into a policeman's hands,
the case against him fell through for
lack of evidence" lie was told that
this would "be lesson" to him, he
said.

YANkS ON VERGE
OF OPEN REVOLT

Treatment Is Said to Be Causing Players to umbe-May
= Take Matter to Baseball Fraternity.
By SENATOR"

NEW YORK, July 5.-The Yankees
are on the verge of open revolt against
the treatment being given to them by
the peerless leader. F. Leroy Chance,
and the explosion is expected any Gay
now. The Yankees claim that fines are
being plastered upon them on the
slightest provocation and that many
OF them are not getting more than half
their regular salaries through the many
nnes. 1t is impossible to any Of the
Yankees to let himself be quoted at
this time, but the grumbling is known
to the players of all the other teams
and will eventually reach the ears of
the magnates. Indeed it is rumored
here today that the baseball players
fraternity will take the matter IN
charge in a short time, unless there is
q change in the tactics of the Yankee
leader
Pitchers who fail to cover first base
are fined. Players who throw to the
wrong base are fined. Coachers who
allow runners to perish stretching hits
are fined. Runners who fail to watch
the course of the ball and are caught
on bases are fined. 1t is a constant
story of fine after fine, and the Yankees
are very Ditter over H. Iue dnhetS
have a poor ball club. but the ipdivid-
uais on the team are doing the best
they can. II they ere not stars. it is
their fault, yet Chance acts toward
them as though they were champions
failing to uphold a great reputation.
To add to the aggravation condition
here, the fans are tabooing the team.
The crowds at the Polo Grounds are
frightfully small, and the pass gate
is being worked overtime. The Ath-
letics drew just eighty-four paid ad-
missions to one of their games here
this week, and for their four days are
said to have taken away but slightly
more than 5000. The players who are
not playing championship ball are being
hoooted at by the fans. Borton suffer-
ing the most in this way. The spirit has
left this young fellow. and he expects
and gets a warm reception every time
he approaches the plate. Borton is not

result of all the boosting he got when
he first came is showing Itself now In
disappointment among the fans.
Frank Chance has always been known
as a driver of players. In Chicago
this method worked well with bunch
of veterans who were winning pen
nants. He is now In charge OF young
sters who have much to learn and his

come soon, too, as the players were
getting sick and tired Of trying their
best and then being fined for not sue

caused great timiditv among the play
ers, and they no longer take chances
for fear Of punishment.

inning and fades away from sight be-
fore a storm of bingles. Yesterday the
tall finger kept his form to the very
end. and had the Griffmen swinging and
biting at his splitter in vain all after
noon. 1t was truly laughable to see
low-breaking splitter and missing 1t by 4
foot every time. Mcconnell Is not a
very strong pitcher, and seldom wins
against the Climbers. Therefore his
work Yesterday was all the more COM
mendable. He allowed but Ave hits
and no two came In the same inning
Not TIL the final frame did he get into
a bad hole. and Moeller's anxiety sot
him out OF that safely.
Sir Robert Grooms fiinging in the
morning was a cameo of the diamond.
The toothpick twirler allowed just three
hits and was never really in any dam
ger. His splitter was breaking well,
that's the solution. When this is in
shape. Groom is an effective hurler.
George Mullin looked TO nave every
thing when he started the afternoon
game. but the Yankees manifested no
trouble in touching him up in lively
manner. They Strengthened out his
curve ball as often as he swung II
across. Mullin had good control bu.
everything he served up was hit. Hughes
who followed him, had a similar eX-
perience. though he got through his first
two frames in good style. Then the
Yankees pounded out three bingles for a
run. and Gallia replaced the veteran.

By SENATOR,

NEW YORK. July 5.-Joe Boehling
had a great opportunity to win the aft
ernoon game from the Yankees yester-
day. but George Mcconnell. fearing the
lusty swing Of the young southpaw
hurier. passed him, preferring to take a
chance with Daredevil Danny Moeller.
The Rochester Rambler had been un-
able to do anything with McConnell's
splitter all day. and the tall twirler de-
cided In the nash Of an eye that he
would be safer with the bases filed
than Boehlfng with only two on.
Up came Moeller, and anxiety to drive
over enough runs to win the game
proved his undoing At the very first
ball that Mcconnell shot him he whaled
away. 1t was low one. the same kind
that had been fooling him all after
noon. OF course. he was fooled again.
The best he could do was pop up weakly
to Roy Hartzell. and the game was
over.

and bringing up Moeiler. The latter
couldn't wait a moment to take advan-

Thus was a good rally killed In the bud.
