EVERSMAN ANSWERS
Y|NGL|NG'S DEFENSE
Head of Police Commission
ers Declares Board Dis
missed PatrOlman and De-
MES Political Motive.

Police Commissioner Will Evers-
man, president of the board, in sign
ed statement issued today makes a
sharp reply to a statement made yes
terday by William Yingling, who has
retired from the force.
He denies that Yingling resigned at
the request of the board and declares
that the officer was dismissed about
month ago for drinking on duty
making the resignation he presented
yesterday an unnecessary formality.
He points to the fact that Yingling
admits to taking glass of beer while
on plain clothes duty, which, Evers-
man says, is as much a violation of
the rules as to drink while in uniform
Answering Yingling's assertion that
he was the only Republican on the
force and that his removal was
political move, Eversman points to the
fact that the police force is maintain
ed on a non-partisan basis, now hav-
ing eight Democratic, six Republican
and four Progressive patrolmen.
The commissioners statement fol-
lows:
Editor Palladium:
| see in the issue of the Palladium
last night statement of Mr. Yingling
relative to his dismissal from the
police force, | wish to state that Mr.
Iingling has misinformed the public
when he said that | requested him to
hand in his resignation to take effect
June 1st, 1914, because the board at
a special meeting May 9, 1914. unani-
mOusly voted to dismiss Mr.. Yingling
from the police force for drinking in
toXicating liquor while on duty and by
the above you can readily see that |
could not invest myself with power
to ask Mr.. Yingling for his resisna-
ton when the board had decided to
dismiss him.
There is another thing the board
wants the public and everyone con-
cerned to know about: it is this:
That a patrolman does not necess-
arily have to be in uniform to be on
duty. Mr.. Yingling on show day was
detailed by superintendent H. D.
Goodwin to work at the show grounds
in plain clothes and he reported for
duty at $50 a. m, so when he took
drink of beer, as he claimed he did.
he was violating one of the most i'm
pOrtant rules We have and one we
expect every patrOlman to live up to.
Mr.. Yingling also misinformed the
public when he said that the board
was playing politics, We have eighteen
patrolmen on the force and the fol-
lowing political parties are represent
ed: Eight Democrats, (Rottinghaus,
Schroeder. Menke, Hirschfield, Law
Ter, Nogelsong. Wierhake. StaubachD:
six Republicans, Westenburg. Rem
inert, Fee, Bundy, Longman, Wenger,
and four Progressives, little. Gully,

last meeting decided not to stick to
politics but appoint the best man re-
CARELESS OF politics.
On wet and dry election day l sent
MIR. Yingling home from the precinct
in Riverlale because l was satisfied
that he had been drinking intoxicating
liquor, | brought it up before the
board at the next regular meeting and
they called him in Oh the carpet and
he promised he would cut out drink

0. B. SPARED FEDS
At LEAGUES START
Magnates Claim ''BrOtherly
Love" Prevented Crushing
Upstairs in Infancy.
BY FRANK G. MENkE.

NEW YORK, June 2.-OrganiZed
baseball comes to the fore today with
a new story of how it could have
crushed the Federal league even be-
fore it started, but because we didn't
want to use seemingly unfair tactics
we didn't do it,
1t seems from this new story-that
is from the way organized baseball
tells it-that it had a chance in Chi
rcago, just at the time the Chicago
Feds were negotiating for the land
t. buy wide strip straight through
the center of the plot that now forms
the Feds park there.
But soft hearted organized baseball
crowd didn't care to do such a thing.
They felt so kindly and charitable to-
ward the Feds that they let them buy
the whole lot.
In Buffalo, ST. Louis and again in
Chicago, the organized crowd had a
chance to put the crusher on the Feds,
but because of brotherly and tender
feelings towards the Feds, it passed
the chances up. From what we are
told by one of the big officials of or
ganized baseball, some of the prop
erty owners in the neighborhood of
the Federal parks objected to the
presence OF the parks.
didn't Care To-
"And right there explained this
official, I'VE could have killed off the
Feds, had we cared to. We could
have, at a total cost of $4,000, got
these property owners together and
filed Injunction suits to prevent furth
or work on the parks. Without doubt
the injunctions would have been
granted-and where would the Feds
have been?
Aren't the real facts in these par
tjcular cases a bit different than you
explain?" we asked isn't it the real
truth that the reason organized base
ball didn't buy that strip of land and
push injunction suits was because it
was blind to it's opportunity, and not
because it saw it and passed it by in
tenttonally?'
"Oh, no." was the answer.
And there you are.
Salaries Differ.
Comparing the baseball salaries of
the present day with those of the past
is just like comparing a pony to an
elephRnt-there's just that much diff
ference in the general bulk of the pay
envelopes.
Amos Rusie, regarded by many of
the veteran fans who have seen the
best Of the past and present perform
ers, as just about the greatest pitcher
Of all time, got only a paltry So 200 a
year, in comparison with Walter John
sons $500, Mathewson's $4,000,
Joe Woods $4,000 and Nap Fuckers
$4,000. The amount that. Amos used
to draw down for his brilliant work is
an amount that even the twirlers
fresh from the bushes would sneeze
at in these days.
George Van Haltern had few peers
as base runner, few as a fielder and
thrower, few as a brainy player, and
usually could be counted on for
goodly number Of safe sWats each sea
SON. In the old days George was fig
ured to be of as much value to his
team as Iris Speaker is today, yet
George gra bbed off only $1,000 a year.
while Iris takes unto himself about
$1S,5OO.

London, Nov. 1Gtb-A French official
communiqu6 seuod last night states The
most notable incident to-day was the throw
ing back of the enemy on the right bank Of

bank which tie Germans previously held

which had been lost following a night attack.
At the end of the day the enemy had shown
without success IN offensive movement to

made by the Germans during the last several
DAYS resulted only in the capture Of the ruined
village Of DiXmude, whose isolated position
on he right bank of the Canal rendered It's
defence difficult
A German official statement says: Fight

gress yesterday, owing to unfavourable wea-
ther. IN the course OF a difficult preliminary
encounter we captured several hundred
French and English soldiers and two ma
chine guns. In the Forest Of Argonne we

French that they had dispersed a German
division at Coincoult is an invention on the
