TRlB SUED FOR 100000 FOR
STORIES ABOUT ED. SINGER
Suit for 100000 was filed against
the Chicago Daily Tribune by Edw.
D. Singer of the Wentworth Av Saw
ings bank.
The Tribune, Singer claims, print
ed stories to the effect that Singer
was running the Wentworth Az.
Savings bank and that he had been
mixed up with shady bank deals in
the past, that he went from place to
place in the country one jump ahead
of the law, that he had been bank
rUpt three times and was once fined
for misuse of the mails.
According to Morris Levenson, at
torney for Singer, Singer was only
an employee in the Wentworth Av.
bank.
LeZinson answers the TribUne's
charges by saying that Singer is
treasurer Of Mckinley Camp, Work
ers of the World; and of Peace Grove
of the WoOdmen Circle; is district
deputy sup't of the Knights of st. Jo-
seph; chairman of the Independent
Western Star order and pres. of Net
ter lodge, 1876 o. B. A.
Levensonl says the fine for misuse
of the mails was RENTED to Singer.
It is charged against the Tribune
that its story started a run on the
bank where Singer was employed. It
is the belief Of the plaintiff that the
one reason fol. the attack on Singer
was to<prompt depositors to take
their money out of the little bank
and deposit it with highly-capitalized
banks which are said by the papers
in which they advertise to be bull
warks of strength.

BIG LEAGUE RACE

Margin Between First Teams
in Two Leagues Still
Narrower.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE be-
ginning OF the last full month Of the
1916 baseball season brings no dimi-
mutton in the intensity of the races
in the National and American lea
CUES. In fact. last week brought the
leading teams in the two major or
CARNATIONS closer together. Boston
leads the American and Brooklyn
the National. but both Of their leads
We're reduced during the week.
For the moment the National
league race has superseded the
American in interest. Brooklyn, the
league leader since early in May
now is threatened more than at any
time since il has held the lead. Bos-
ton and Philadelphia have crept so
close that they are in a position TO
go ahead OF Brooklyn, at the least
turn in the leaders fortunes.
QualIers Are Best.
Philadelphia played the better ball
of the three leaders during the week
and cut down the advantage held by
the Braves and Superbas. Boston
played slightly better ball than
Brooklyn and the Brooklyn lead Of
nine points on Sunday had been re-
duced 10 seven points at the end of
the week
The closing intersectional games
OF the National in the west had these
results: West Z: East II.
Boston. which had doubled its lead
in the previous week, had its lead
over Detroit reduced by half during
the week.
Margin is Narrow.
The margin between the first six
teams in the American was reduced
from So to is points. Boston and
Detroit did not change their relative
positions during the week, but Chi
cago, St. Louis and Cleveland moved
ahead at the expense OF New York.
Boston lost the services of Capt
Jack Barry during the week, as the
result of injuries.
Intersectional results in the Amer
lean were: West Z; East 10.
The loss of six straight games by
Kansas City was a feature of the
American association race last week
