DEPARTMENT DOUBTS
SELF WOUNDS STORY
BELIEVES ROD GANlRRELL, WHO
SENT OUT STORY, SAW
VISIONS.
Guartismen Who Shoot Themselves ia
Effort to Obtain Their Own Re-
lease Would Be Guilty OF
Offensc.

WASHINGTON, August 1s.-The
statement made yesterday at Dallas
by Rod Gambrell OF the Texas hos
pital corps to the effect that ma
tioual guardsmen had wounded
themselves in unsuccessful attempts
TO secure their release, is doubted
by the department officials
Department officials said today
that mutilation would be rather a
heroic method of obtaining release
and incidentally would be useless as
such an act would be treated as a
crime BY the army officials. a
guardsman would be tried for MAIN
ing and would face a prison sen
tenee.
Gambrcll said between fifteen aud
twenty patients we're in the hospital
az Malta suffering from self-inflict-
ed bullet Wounds. but no report of
such cases have come to the depart
ment

Senator Chas. A. Culberson will
ington while congress is In session.
and he does not anticipate an ad-
journment until after the second
senatorial primary is held next
Saturday. That was stated in II
letter received from Mr.. Culberson
Friday morning. The letter was in
response, to an invitation 20 Mr..
Culberson to come to Waxahachie
rext week and speak in the interest
of his candidacy He was also urg-
ed to make two or three other
speeches in the state. An extract
from Mr.. Culberson's letter reads as
follows:
II note your suggestion relative
to speaking in Texas, but as long
as congress is In session. which
will likely be until after the prima-
ries, 1t will be impossible for me to
leave here and | must look 70 my
friends in the state to conduct an
active and aggressive campaign for
me and exert every effort until the
polls close
1t Is important that the friends
OF Mr.. Cnlberson get busy in his in
terest. With that end in view a
meeting will be held at the county
court room tonight at s O'Clock for
the purpose OF organizing Young
Mems Culberson Club OF Ellis Coun-
Is. All the friends OF Mr.. Culber-
sen are requested to attend.

PLAY BALL GAME HERE
" ALTER NORRIS oF toRi
WORTH TEAM TRANSFERS
GAME To WAxAHACHiE.
Games viii Re Played at Jungle
Park ON September and
and viii Count in League
Pennant Race.

IL has not been definitely decided
that the acquisition of such a mag
rtficent ball plan: as jungle park
will put waxahachie in the Texas
league for all time to come, but such
plant has been the attraction that
drew a series of two games that
will count in the pennant race OF
the Texas league. A letter from
President Walter Morris of the
Texas league authorizes the trans
fer of two games between the Fort
Worth and Waco teams to be play
cd here on September ] and 2. In
making this authorization President
Morris says IL is kind of expert
ment TO determine If surrounding
towns will contribute to the support
of the Texas league games. If the
experiment Is worth while Waxaha-
chic will get on the list for schedul-
ed games next season.
Waco is leading the Texas league
this season and Fort Worth is hold
ing third place. President Morris
in letter to. l.. I. Weaver says
These will be regular Texas league
games, and one or two of the league
umpires will officiate. The box
scores will be telegraphed immedi-
ately to the newspapers OF the
state"
He says these games shoulc be
very interesting and draw good
crowds from both Fort Worth and
Waco.
