Western Clubs in
National League
Losing Big Money

NEW YORK, July 2-Figures on
the books of the National League
show that only Eastern teams are
making money this year, and that if
the present rate keeps up the four
Western clubs will be big losers.
New York has been the best money
maker so far and has played to the
great crowds at home. The Philles
have drawn huge crowds in their own
bail!Wick and have proved quite
card on the road. For the first time
in many years the Dodgers Golfers
are bullying and even the Braves have
operated so far at a nice profit.
However the attendance has great
ly fallen off in Chicago, Cincinnati
and in Pittsburg. Early in the sea
son the Smoky City fans literally
patronized the park, but since the Pr
rates began hitting the chutes only
the odd guard" has been on hand. In
St Louis the turnstiles are getting
rusty from such little use, and this
gives promise of being one of the
worst years in the Missouri city

been bought from the White
Sox by the Cracker club. The papers
have not changed hands, but terms
have been accepted and Smith will
join the Cracker club toward the end
of this week.
Last year with Birmingham, Smith

Only six pitchers in the league who
took part in 20 games or more topped
him. At the end of the season he was
sold to the White SoX for a good sum.
He has been carried with the team
since then. He did not look quite
good enough to make the team, but
he showed such promise that Manager
Callahan was reluctant 20 let him go.
Smith is practically a kid. His his
tory is well known. He was born in
Birmingham, and, being crazy about
baseball, he broke into it by the
pop route. For several years he
sold pop at the Birmingham park,
and worked around the field when

MOTHER KEPT IN
IGNORANCE OF CHARGE
Mrs. Palmer at ST. Mar
garet's Hospital Is Near
Deaths Door.

Albert Palmer, accused of being a
fend incarnate, the despoiler of his
own child, lies in Jail at Crown Point
awaiting trial. His wife lies at st. Mar
garet's hospital awaiting death.
These facts developed as a result of
the request of DIR. Alva Young that
Palmer be permitted to see his wife
before she does. The case presented
some delicate problems.
Mrs. Palmer knows nothing off the
disgrace that has befallen her husband.
She may be aware of his bestial nature
but she did not know that these traits
had been brought to light
And so she asked for him. She
wanted to know why he had not been
to the hospital to see her. She felt
herself getting weaker and wanted
some one to comfort her.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Ralph
w Ross was in a quandary. He did not
want to deprive a dying woman of the
right to see her husband and yet he
did not want the husband to betray to
her the fact that he IS charged with SO
heinous a crime.
Mrs. Palmer is sinking rapidly. The
little child is in the care of the county
physician suffering from her fathers
misdeeds and Palmer himself faces the
possibility of having to spend the rest
of his life in Jail
