Penalty f. Prison Term

Walter +. sammons. ex-sheriff Of Buff
faio county and lieutenant colonel In
the Nebraska national guard, was denie !
a new trial in federal court Saturday
after lengthy arguments. He was con-
victed by a jury Thanksgiving day OF
robbing the Kearney postofflce last
Christmas OF registered package con-
tanning 5000.
As his lawyers did not have an appeal
bond and bill Of exceptions ready TO file
yesterday, when their motion for a new
trial was denied, Judge Page Morris de-
ferred sentence until $50 O'Clock Thurs
day morning. The penalty is a prison
term not exceeding five years, or fine
not exceeding 1900 or both.
Immediately after sentence is pro-
nounced on sammons Delbert Smith will
be arraigned on the charge of conspir-
ing with Summons TO rob the postoffice.
He will plead guilty. United States Dis
trfct Attorney +. s. Howell says, and
stands ready TO go to prison II neces-
sary to atone for his part IN the case.

THE defendant was fairly tried and
convicted" Judge Morris said. in re
fusing to grant a new trial "The jury
which tried Summons was OF as high a
character as ever heard a case before
me"
Counsel FOR Sammons based their motion
for new trial on three points: The dis
covery of new evidence, tending to COR
roborate Sammons' denial OF guilt and
to impeach testimony introduced by the
prosecution; the contention that the YER
dict was not sustained by sufficient
evidence. and that the verdict was con-
trary to the instructions of the court.
In support of the assertion that new evil
dence has been discovered. ex-senator
Norris Brown produced the affidavits OF
Nellie Kinkaid, Roy Knapp, Jessie
Burgher Robert A. Robbins, Edward

to statements which tended either to dis
credit the governments testimony, or
else TO support sammons own story,

"DAGO FRANK" CIROFICI.

New York, April 8.-Mary Cirofici,
the loyal sister of "Dago Frank
Cirofici, one of the four gunmen con-
victed of the murder of Herman Ro-
senthal, believes she has compiled a
petition that will induce Governor
Glynn to stay the sentences OF the
condemned gangsters until after the
second trial of Lieutenant Charles
Becker, convicted of instigating the
murder. Through the efforts of Miss
Cirofici, ten of the jurors who rem
dered the verdict against her brotheE
and his three companions affixed their
signatures to the petition, which has
been forwarded to the governor. In
signing the document the jurors speci-
fed that their actions must not be
construed in detriment to the verdict
of the original trial, explaining that
they agree to reprieve only out of
the possibility of new and favorable
evidence developing during the second
trial of Becker.

read some of the remarks they made
at that time.
1t may be recalled that early in
January when the Feds began to
loom largely on the baseball horizon
some of the magnates of the Organ
lied Majors thought that a way to
combat the Feds would be to abol-
ish the draft rule, as applied to the
Glass AA teams, let these leagues
pay unlimited salaries and thus lift
them to the major league classified
ton.
For time it looked as if the plan
would go through, but some OF the
magnates of the majors were so sure
that the Feds would blow up before
the 1914 season opened that they
thought the move a foolish one. Yet
at the time, the majority of the mag
mates declared that the players OF
the Class AA minors were of such
calibre that they almost ran as ma
iors and that some of the best clubs
in the Class AA minors were far bet
ter than some of the clubs in either
the American or National. league.
Therefore, it seems as if the Or
ganized persons who are calling the
Feds minor league outfit seem to be
foozling a bit. The Feds, for tht
most part, are made up of players
grabbed from either the majors OF
/ the Class AA minors. With sixt.
major leaguers in their ranks an.
with practically the rest of their play
ers recruited from the Class Az
teams, it's certain that they take ever
higher ranking than do the Glass
AA teams-the very same teams tina
the Organized Majors some months
back figured on giving major leagu'
status.
The Organized Baseball Peopl
ought to recall the remark abou
"those who live in glass cottages
shouldn't heave brickbats"-ant
then heed the subtle advice. The O

Listed among the sall-star" combi
nations of pitchers is that Of the

sist of Dauss, Dubuc, Hall, Shepard,
Cavet, Covalesllie, Williams, Schultz,
Mains, Reynolds, Comstock and Boen-
Ter. Maybe they are stars, bu. some
body ought to push away the clouds
that hide them.
The Pittsburg Pirates also boast
of their "all-star" pitching staff.
Here it is: McQuilien, O'Toole, Adams,
Harmon, Councilman, Delhi, Duffey
and Kantlehner. The last four seem
quite unfamiliar to us, perhaps be-
cause we didn't follow the bush league
history very closely last yea. Nc
Quillen was resurrected from the nil
nors last season, and Harmon seems
to have seen his very best days.
Included in the "all-starsv that the
Phillies are toting around are Tin

dy and Haislip. If the whole bunch
were placed on the market right now

enough money to buy one good first-

Frank Menke's
Sporting Letter

New York, April 8.-Clutching it
from the remarks being cast hither
and thither by Organized Baseball,
the Federal League is minor league
proposition. But Organized BasebalPs s
own little rules give the Federal
League a major league status.
These rules show the difference
between a minor and major league.
A league that has to conform to a
salary limit and whose players arc
subject to draft by teams in another
league is minor league. A league
that has no salary limit and whose
players are not subject to draft is
a major league.
Therefore the Feds stack up as a
major league. They pay unlimited
salaries and their players are moi
subject to draft.
Organized Baseball, in rebuttal, de-
clares that despite these facts the
Federal League is not major league
because it's players are not of ma
jor league calibre. Very well. But
before they made such statement
it might have been well for them
to look back through the newspaper
files of the past few months anC
