MYSTERY WHEN STATE
GETS RID OF INSANE
Los Angeles Cant Understand
New YOrk's Way Of Send
ing Back Detectives.

A message to THE Sun from Los An
geles. Cal. last night told of the arrest
there as an insane person OF Charles
Frank. formerly an inmate Of the Kings
Park. l.. l.. State Hospital for the In
sane. 1t was said that Frank was taken
to California by DR.. Van Denmark with
other H. ne persons and that DR.. Van
Denmark disappeared, leaving his patients
In Los Angeles.
Inquiry brought some light TO bear on
the situation. Frank "a native OF Cali
fornia, came to New York and In u short
time was found to be insane. He was
committed to Kings Park.
The case was brought to the attention
OF the State Bureau Of Deportation, OF
which Dr. Michael Osnato is "a member.
1t was decided that as Frank be-
longed In California that State should
take charge Of him. Accordingly an
order was issued for his deportation ard
IN company with other unfortunates of
the same sort he was put in the care of
DIR. J. l.. Van Denmark, an agent Of the
bureau.
There Is no Federal law governing the
deportation OF insane persons from one
State to another. so II has become the
practice to some extent of sending such
detectives to the State from which they
came and then turning them over to their
friends or relatives. II they therea fter
prove unit to be left at large the state
must then provide for them. That IL the
only way New York State has Of get
ting rid OF insane persons. and II is pre-
sumed that was the action In the case
Of Frank and the others who went with
him.
Or. Van Denmark had not returned from
California last night. DR.. Osnato was
out Of the city and could not be reached.
In some cases agents of the Bureau OF
Deportation who have taken insane per-
sons to another State to leave them have
been arrested. That II said to have been
the reason DR.. Van Denmark left Frank
In California and disappeared" without
letting the Los Angeles authorities know
whore he was going. 80.

New Haven, Aug. 27.-New Haven pushed Bill Scinski'S Wanderers deeper into oblivion by annexing both games of yesterdays double header at the Savin Rock grounds Incidental ly, yesterdays victories gave the To- calls clean sweep of the series just closed and also the undisputed claim to sixth place.

CUT SALARY LIMIT,
 SAYS PRES. 0'ROURKE
Circuit MsgAates Nay Rc(uCj It
 From S2,5O0 10 $l,S]O.

It is safe to say that in 1915 there will be no such salary limit as $2,- 500 in the Eastern association. It has taken beating after beating to make the magnates of the league realize that with a circuit constituted of some large cities and some small ones, monthly expenditure of that amount of money for players services alone is foolishness.
 But this has been d year that has taught the magnates much faster than other years. When the turn stiles fail to click in the proper cad ence, your average baseball man be- gins to wonder just where the in habitant of the woodpile can be found. And the answer is always temporary lassitude by the fans and a resultant absence of gate receipts with which to pay salaries.
 There has been no merry concert of clicking turnstiles in this league this season. The music that the magnates love to hear is not runs from the squeaky old calculators, but the calendar provides just as many frsts and fifteenths as it did Tn the years gone by when a ball player worked for wages and not for bonuses.
 And the first and fifteenth is | when the ball player comes around for his velvet. Players now in this league get as much as from S1OO to $2OO a month and it is easy to see | where the owners are going to get off paving salaries of this kind. They
 are going to get off in the consomme and they are lucky if it isn't beyond wading distance.
 President James H. ORourke is confident that a lower salary limit, | say of $2,O0O or $1,S00, will worx a benefit to the league and he thinks 1 that it is a proposition which the di- rectors should take up at their an-
 nual meeting next December.
 Ut is something that ought to be
 adopted said MT. O'Rourke yester-
 day. The Tri-State league took a
 similar action some time ago reduc- l ig down to limit of S1,600 a
 month, and yet the first year under | that arrangement they sold more l players than any other Class B league | in the country. ras.s .aa
 You can show the fans just as | good baseball for that money as you
 can by paying players s2,50O of your
 months receipts right along I don't
 say this in disparagement of the play err l believe man should get all l he is worth, but I don't believe in a l club owner paying a man for re- | suits he is never going to obtain

 CONNECTICUT FARMS
Executive Tells Farmers Club He Claims Kinship to Agriculture
 Praises Fairfield County.

Greenwich. Conn. Aug. 27.-Gover- TOT Baldwin told the Farmers club of Greenwich yesterday that he claimed kinship to agriculture. He said he was a farmers boy. had worked on a farm fin three states when lad, and is now chairman of the trustees of the Connecticut Agricultural college The gathering was a large one, and the governor took the opportunity to sLeak a good word for the efforts of the state to promote agriculture, dairying and husbandry. He said the college had domed farm in Fair field county. left by Fairfield county man. He did not think if had been financially successful, as it has not paid its way yet. Then he told a' story. Said the governor: "I have heard of New England farmer. in old times before the packing houses of the west had grown so great. who was met on the road to New York with a drove of hogs. man who met him asked him what he expected to get for them and he said $5 head.
 How many have you got P"
 "100,'"
 "'What has it cost you to breed and fatten them 2
 "'s500, I reckon.
 Where does your profit come in, then?'
 Well. you see I have to go to New York every year and have their company down."
 The governor said that the state farm at Georgetown has been selling good milk at a good price, but the feed and salaries have cost more than came in and the college trustees never get a trip to New York thrown in either.
 The governor said he believed Connecticut farm can be made to pay. and above all others a Fairfield | county farm. Connecticut is a pleas ant place to live in and a good place | to earn a living in.

JOINS BRITISH STAFF.
Prince Antoine Resigns His Commis-
 sion in Austrian Army.

London. Aug. 27, 4:14 a. m.--A de- spatch to Reuters Telegram company from Paris states that Prince Louis> Antoine of Orleans and Braganza, who re signed his commission in the Austro- Hungarian army at the outbreak of the war, has been authorized by King George to serve in the British army. He has left for the front to join the staff.
 The keenness of F'renchmen of all classes and all over the world to joiri the colors is instanced by the priests in Palestine. A number of those in Jerusalem, hearing of the mobilization order, left on the first boat for France. Among them is the Dominican Father Vincent. who was engaged at the time in writing an archaeological work on ancient Jerusalem.

BUILDING PROGRESSES.

The building of the addition to the Skinner Chuck company, which has been seriously delayed on account of the presence of quick-sand on the site, is progressing swiftly. To avoid all danger from the quick-sand the foundations are composed of thirty fcot concrete piles driven into the ground to almost their full length. On top of the piles are placed rein forced concrete girders, and on top of the girders concrete flooring. The erection of the building will be com plete three months after the com pletion of the flooring.

This naturally slowed him up to some extent on the bases but it did not impair his usefulness in the short field to any extent. Zeimer Is a gentleman on or off the field and has the respect of fans and players. His admirers hope that he may be able to catch on with some club and get back into his old stride.

Reggie Brown a Hero.


 New York, Aug 27.--1f Connie Mack had seen Carroll Brown at the Polo grounds the calculating tactician might have regretted those harsh words that led to the parting of the ways. In the opening game of the concluding series with the tribe that sports his family name the former pitcher of the worlds champions showed a game that would have won almost any sort of worlds series argu- ,ment. Brown stopped the Browns in twelve innings by a score of 2 to 1, and in doing it conquered Southpaw Weilman in his very best form.
 Brown pitched a game that will live long in the traditions of his family tree. To cap the climax he hit home the winning run, with one out, in the twelfth Through the twelve rounds he allowed only eight hits and passed only three men. He served besides as an extra infielder for Chance, and a crackerjack too, for he threw out no less than eleven men. The score:
