CLERKS Minus LEADER;
HOLIDAY in BALANCE
Employees Are All Anxious to Get Of
Early July 3. but No One Is Willing
to Head the Movement.
MATTER UP TO WHITE HOUSE

Government departments today are
stirring internally in regard to the re-
quest that is to be made for an extra
half holiday on July to precede the
full Saturday holiday on Independence
Day.
When it leaked out several days ago
that some action is to be taken toward
obtaining this holiday and that infiuen-
tial men in the departments are working
for 1t, a wave of Joy swept over the
employees. To make sure that all pos
sible influence should be brought TO bear
on the question, clerks began inquiring
as to what men were behind the move
surround the whole affair. No one seems
willing to take the responsibility Of head
ing the movement and the entire attempt
seems unorganized.
A general order for the holiday. cover
ing all the departments, would have to
come from President Wilson. II the clerks
get together and take some definite action
IN the matter a petition to the House
probably will be the result
Opinion seems prevalent among an OF
the government, employees that there is a
good chance OF the holiday being granted
because the powers that be- were
forced to deny them an increased period
of Saturday half-holidays when it was
requested some time ago. 1t IL hoped
that, although it was impossible to grant
more Saturday holidays, 1t may be possi-
BILE now to grant a few hours for July g.
Enthusiasm in regard to the holiday Is
strong enough in the departments, and
things are gradually stirring. II the
forces of influence can be marshaled and
a combination of forces effected some &C
ton is expected in a few days

Special 10 The Washington Herald. =
Stamford, Conn, June "a startling
new feature in 4 the mysterious Ballou
tragedy at Stamford developed tonight,
when Homer S. Cummings, States at
torney, and vice chairman of the Ma
tionaI Democratic Committee, advanced
the theory that a second man, friend
Of both Ba2lou and Helen NJ Angle, was
present in the Angle apartment when
RalIou sustained the injuries that caused
his death.
This man. according, to Mr.. Cummings
and Chief Of Police William Brennan.
is known to'the police and can be placed
under arrest at any time. He Is said to
be a Stamford politician, friend OF
Ballou. and friendly of late with Mrs.
Angle There is no evidence as yet to
warrant the police in connecting him
oficially with the case.
Aside from the theory based on facts
which the authorities will moth disclose
there were four other developments
which the police assert add strength TO
their case
First II was learned by City PTosecu-
tor Phillips that Mrs. Angle saw Ballou
and another woman dining m a local
restaurant on the evening of the tragedy.
second. BaEou's gold spectacles, clot-
ted with blood and hair, were bound hid
den in a small box outside bathroom
window, where bloody cloths used TO
wipe up the floor and stained garments
had been found on the previous day.
They were not broken which the police
claim discredits the theory of a fall
Third Mr.. Cu1nmins discovered addi-
tional blood stains on the floor of the
Angle apartment and at the top of the
second flight of stairs Mrs. Angle de-
clares Banou fell straight to the land
ing at the head of the first flight, which
fails to explain the Apresence of blood
higher up.
To Examine sStninS-
Fourth, although Mrs Angle collapsed
three times during the curoners inquiry
Yesterday. she apparently was in excel
lent health and spirits today. She
talked with reporters for two hours at
a time and read all of the New York
newspapers.
An Of the exhibits in the. case, includ-
ing pieces of wood chipped from the
stairs and the floor, wene handed over
today to DR.. Bruce S. Weaver, patholo-
gist and bacteriologist at the Stamford
Hospital. who will make a chemical an
alysis to determine the character of the
stains He will pay particular attention.

claim Ballou was struck.
Tt has been said today that anothsri
man was in your apartment when BALI
lou returned the second time said a,
reporter to Mrs. Angle today.
'-Oh, that is aNterrible lie,' she replied.
There wasn't any one there, although
God knows 1 wish there had been some

MONDAY GAME
FOR RICHMOND.
Southpaw Brings Record Of
Two Victories Over Wiede-
manns in Contests Played
Earlier in Season.

Some classy pitching is expected TO
be exhibited Sunday and Monday art
ernoon when Richmond meets the
Wiedemanns at Athletic park. Le1ty
James, who has played with teams that
have given the Wiedemanns their
only DEFEATS this reason, VIII pltch
against them again Monday. he Is
from Cincinnati, and is Conslderen
one of the fastest pitchers IN semi
pro ball. He will be imported for the
occasion by Dick Kenney, and is count
ed on to turn the trick again LABOR
day.
He played with the West Covington
team and the Versailles (Ohlo) team
when they defeated the Wledemans.
The Wiedemans have suffered only
three defeats this season, and two or
them was when James was pitching.
Vordenburg will pitch the game
Sunday for Richmond, and if he even
approaches the form he was in when
he pitched against Chick Log of Den
nison, there is no doubt about the out
come.
The Wiedemans will rely on Cefaula,
an Indian, who, though young in the
game, is proving to be exceedingly
fast. In the game the Wledemanns
played last Sunday, Cefaula did not
allow his opponents hit. Ambrose
Pullman, who played for several years
with the New York Yankees, will also
pitch one of the games against the
locals. He left the Yankees in 1912
to take position as manager in the
Three-I league. He then went to the
Louisville American association team,
and the first part Of this season was
managing the Cincinnati Shamrocks.
Bob Lassing. an eX-college pitcher.
will also be in the game against the
Quakers. Last year he was the pre-
mier pitcher of the southern confer
ence colleges. He played with Center

the bench Sunday, although he probah-
ly catch the game Monday.

SEWAGE DISPOSAL
R|CHMONO'S PUZZLE
Complaints Against Pollu-
ton of Whitewater to De-
mand Remedy, Says Mayor

A better sewage disposal system for
the city of Richmond is one of the
questions that will have to be settled
within the next three or four years, &C
cording to Mayor Robbins and some
prominent members of the CONNER
cial club in discussing the situation
here. The Whitewater river Is be-
coming SO polluted with the sewage
of the city that complaints have been
raised by cities south of Richmond
and it is probable that some solution
to the problem will have to be reach
ed within comparatively short time.
The complaint relative to the dispo-
sal of the refuse of city is not only
confined to Richmond, however, as
the question has been raised in prac-
tically every city in the state that dis
poses of it's refuse by means of a riv-
er. The state fish and game COM
mission has complained to the state
legislature that this method of sewage
disposal is killing thousands of fish
annually and on account of the growth
of the cities in the state this condi-
ton is becoming gradually worse.
Must Solve Problem.
IF the city does not solve the prob
lem of her own free will, it is only a
matter of time when she will be re-
Quired by state law to solve the prob
lem, so it is about time for the city
to be thinking about it," says the
mayor.
When this comes about, it will mean
another big expense to the city. The
method suggested by the mayor is to
construct large sewer either along
the river or in the river bottom with
which all the branch sewers in the
city will be connected, taking the sew
age several miles south of the city to
be disposed OIL in a modern sewage
disposal plant. This would cost the
city thousands of dollars, according to
the mayor, but is something that will
have to be done.

BUSINESS At P. O.
GOOD FOR AUGUST
Despite War Beck's Report
Shows Increase Over Same
Month in 1913.

War and other conditions tending to
keep down postoffice business, had lit
tie effect on the office, and August
business was practically the same in
general as August, 1913. Money or
der and other financial business was
much larger for the month this year
than last. Reports show that it is the
biggest postal savings month since
this department was put in operation
two and one-half years ago.
1t is probable that the September
postoffice receipts will far exceed
those of year ago, as several hun
dred dollars worth of supplies which
should be included in the August re-
port were disposed of on the first day
of this month. With normal business
in other lines, an unusually big month
will be the result, the postmaster
stated.
Foreign business has been curtailed
by the war. There is very little for
eign mailing in the postoffice now.
Many postcards of the kind foreign
governments permit their subjects to
send out of the country, have come
through the office for Richmond peo-
pie. No letters are permitted.
