SON OF SLAYER
FIRST REPORTED
MOTHERS ACTS
Gordon Brown Complained
to Father of Mrs. Browns
Alleged Orders to Stay
Away of Nights.

Whether Joseph H. Brown will go
free or stand trial for the murder of
Norris Walker, a week ago last night,
will be known probably tomorrow
noon.
Although he waived his constitution
al right of immunity from grand jury
examination and signified his desire
to make statement before the jury
Mr.. Brown has not been called from
his cell in the county Jail.
Mrs. Brown and her son, Gordon,
aged Is, sat far apart in the court
room today. They We're the witnesses
this morning. Mrs. Brown testified to
the jury for one hour and forty
siderably shaken. Her sister with
whom she is staying refused to permit
her to talk on the case, although Mrs.
Brown showed willingness to do so.
Son Leaves Mother.
Mrs. Brown insisted on correcting a
mis-statement she said she made re-
garding her sons age. Because she
feared he would lose his place in the
band, she said his age was given as
seventeen but that he is really fifteen
years old.
The boy and the mother have be-
come estranged since the shooting in
the Brown flat, it is said. Gordon
Brown refused to remain with his
mother at her sisters, but is staying
with his fathers brother, Edward, on
North Sixteenth street.
1t is said that the boy takes part
Of the responsibility for the shooting
as it was he who first informed his
father of his mothers actions. This
information was to the effect that Mrs.
Brown would not permit her son to
remain at home on the nights when
Mr. Brown was on duty at the rail-
road
Carl Gates Testifies.
Carl Gates, the boy who was dressed
by Mrs. Brown for the mask party on
the night Of the shooting, testified.
His testimony added little to the jury's
information, because he did not see
Mrs. Brown and Walker together and
he left the flat some time before the
shooting.
The grand jury having examined all
witnesses who had any direct or in
direct connection with the shooting
and number who testified as to in
cidents leading up to the murder. will
continue in session tomorrow morning
it was announced from the jury room
today. Whether this is to examine
witnesses or to take up the considera-
tion of the evidence at hand before re-
porting, is not known.
A vote of five of the jurors is neces-
sary to return an indictment against
Brown for manslaughter. Five jurors
must also vote favorably if the charge
is ignored. :

HOME FOR BALL PLAYERS.
Mike and Joe Cantllon Are Back of
Project.


Project.
Minneapolis. Mimi, April 6.-lieaded
by Mike and Joe Cantillion, owners Of
the Minneapolis baseball club, players
here have started a move To organize
a national home for needy professional
baseball players.
The Cantillions offer to donate ST.
0O0 in cash as a starter. The plan Is
to assess each professional baseball
player So a year, and as there are 1000
men playing professional ball in Amer
lea this would aggregate $4,000 an
nually. To become "a member Of the
home a player must serve one year as
a professional under contract, and
must contribute the amount agreed
upon.
The home not only would he open To
tlse player, but also 10 his wife and
children. All players will be placed
upon their honor to not accept the hos
pitality of the home until in need Of
assistance.
Joe Cantilion Indignantly denied
that the advanced age of many of his
players had any bearing on the form
his philanthropy had taken.

MAY INVADE HAWAII.
Leland Stanford and California Plan
New Relations.

The desire for new fields to conquer
may lead to an invasion of the Ha-
waiian Islands by two college teams
during the coming summer. An indie
pendent team composed of Harvard
University players is considering the
trip and the winning nine in the an
nual series between Stanford and Cali
fornia universities has been formally
invited to play at Honolulu. The invi-
tation has been extended by the oahu
league, which desires that the Pacific
Coast university team spend at least
one month in the Hawaiian Islands At
the expense o. the league.
Baseball is very popular throughout
the Hawaiian Islands, and number If
organized teams play the game during
the major portion of the year The
Oahu league is composed of the more
important mines about Honolulu. This
organization is now constructing ball
park that will compare favorably with
those in this country. The large grand
stand will be completed for official
opening on the occasion of the first
game with the visiting team, should
the invitation be accepted
That the Island ball players provide
worthy competition for the best col
lcgiate mines is apparent from the
showing of the Hawaiian Chinese nine
during the past and present invasions
of the United States. This team will
not be in the Islands during the COM
ing season rs it's schedule with eastern
universities in this country extends
through the summer months, but teams
of like calibre will be met i'm the Homo
lulu series by visiting Collegians.
