One Trial in Pitchers Box
Satisfied Eddie Collins

Few people know Eddie Collins.
the Athletics second baseman, as
pitcher. Eddie doesn't know him
self to be pitcher, either. but he was
one once--for just four innings. 1t
was while the greatest ball player
that ever lived" was a preparatory
student at Irving School. Tarrytown.
Collins was captain of his school team,
which journeyed down to Yonkers one
Saturday afternoon to play a game
with Yonkers High School. The Irv-
ing team built up lead of to in
the first six innings. That was too
easy. thought Captain Collins, who
decided he would vacate his position
at shortstop and have a little fun
pitching. He began twirling In the
seventh inning and Yonkers began
hitting at the same time, pounding
three runs across tho plate in that
round. The next inning Yonkers got
one run Off him and In the eighth
three more, tying the score at to z.
Collins was the first man up for Irv-
ing in the tenth and hit a home run,
putting his team ahead. Then Yonk-
ers came to bat against him in its
half. A single, base on balls and
another single came in succession and
Collins was beaten. From that day
be deeided to stick to infieldips.

STANDARD OIL
INDICTED BY
HUDSON Jury
Another Count Against Gulf Re-
timing Over Gasoline
Rate War.
FOLLOWS ACTION OF THE
cREW-LEVlcK COMPANY
Bills Will Be Handed to SUI
preme Court at Mondays
Session.


JERSEY CITY, Oct. 31.--It was re-
ported here today that criminal IN
dlctments had been voted by the
Hudson county grand jury against
the Standard Oil Company, of New
Jersey, and the Gulf Refining Com
pany, which have been engaged In q
rate war on gasoline in Hudson and
Essex counties within the past few
months.
The indictments grew out OF q cut
rate war indicted here during the
summer. The Standard and Gulf Re
fining companies cut the price of
gasoline until it was down to nine
cents gallon. This shut out the
Crew-Levick Company. an independ-
ent firm, from business, and ii was
upon evidence furnished by this con-
Germ that the indictments were re-
turned.
The indictments, according to the
report, were two in number, and were
voted last night. 1t was said that
they would not be handed into court
until Monday, and that they we're
found under the so-called Seven Sis
tiers laws which were placed on the
statute books through the efforts OF
Woodrow Wilson, when he was go :
ernor of the State.
Ten witnesses testified yesterday
before the grand Jury as to the part
played by the two companies in the
recent rapid lowering OF prices on
gasoline in Hudson and Essex
A public investigation conduC
before Judge Sullivan, OF the Comnl'
Pleas Court, about a month ago, iiu-
duced the evidence that within the
space of two months the price on
gasoline had been cut more than 80
per cent 1t was charged then that
the Standard OIL Company had cut
the price to drive competitors out OF
business, but this. Judge Sullivan
held, was not proven.
Under the so-called Seven Sisters
laws a corporation could be found
guilty of misdemeanor and punished
by fine of $1,000 or more or imprison-
n1ent of the officers whose acts were
adjudged Illegal, or both.

Romance OF the Isle
OF CrusOe Shattered by
the March of Progress

Another cherished landmark of the
romance of literature has shed It's
glamor before the onward march OF
progress. For years the island OF
Robinson Crusoes exile has arisen
before our mental vision as a place
far removed from the traffic OF ocean
lanes, a place of mystery, tropical
paradise that knows the presence OF
no human being, aloof, solitary, Silent.
Here once the hero OF Defoe's tale
was cast upon the sands, sole sur
vivor of the ship that lay battered
and broken upon che Jagged rocks
beyond the spume of the surf. And
here he dwelt with no companion
save goat, dog and parrot, until Fri
day made his advent, and, at last,
the two were borne away by a pass
ing brig driven far from her course
by diverse winds.
Now there comes from Chile by
cable the disturbing news that Juan
Fernandez, this island Of Crusoe's,
immortalized by Defoe, variously pic
tured by every reader of the cast
away's adventures and held sacred
to the stirring tales of the seas, is
linked to all the world by the ten
drills of the wireless. 1t is not pre-
cisely clear why O. wireless station
should be erected here, where once
the lonely Crusoe sighed for rescue,
but the record 80 has IL and the
message of the wireless speaks for
itself Imagination must once more
draw in its frontiers and retreat be-
fore the force of fact.
We shall be hard put to it in the
future to feel the same interest in
this isle and In its ingenious and
picturesque inhabitant that once we
felt. 1t is no longer a place OF mys-
terry bathed in the sun of romance.
1t is now two seconds from the coast
of Chile. Not even the glamor with
which the gifted pen of Defoe in
vested it can stand before lard
and relentless fact like that. Juvenile
readers in the future will pause to
inquire, as did their farners and their
fathers fathers, where this island
lies. But the answer they receive
will not be the answer once received.
"a wireless station near Chile" will
come the dampening response 81
