sport Editor, Evening Journal:
Sir-After scanning numerous epis-
Ties, fired by the Layers-Out team at
the Del-Nar and All-Wilmington
Leagues, in an effort TO have the win
ners In these leagues, play them, am
amused.
Aside from the fact that. as stated
this morning. the Layers Out team is a
winner OF nothing but a shop" league
pennant it Is interesting to look over
their list Of players and note their
other connections
Some follow:
Red" Wright, shortstop-Is signed
with the Keystone team Of the Al-Wn-
mington League. Early in season he
played with the Eleventh Ward
Jimmy Mayhart second base-Is
sighed with the Eleventh Ward. Of the
All-Wilmingt0n League. Played most
all season with Brownson. lie also
plays with the Conrad team.
Fishback. catcher-ls regular catcher
for the Neighborhood All-Wilminglon
League team
Doc" Dolan. first base-Is regular
first baseman for Neighborhood in the
All-Wilmington League He played
early in the season with Edge Moor.
Joe" Briscoe, pitcher-Is nrst-string
pitcher for the NeighbOrhOod team and
played a short while for Newark in the
Del-Mar.
Kopshaw. catcher-Is signed with
Eleventh Ward in the All-Wilminglon
League lie played with Edge Moor
early in the season. He also plays with
The Delaware City team.
Young. out1elder-Is regular player
for the Lorraine team.
"Babby" McGOnigle-Is regular
pitcher for The Lorraine team.
There are a few others ] cannot
trace, and some Of these players may
have more connections, but not TO my
knowledge
Should the Layers-0ut, with players
picked from the best teams OF the city,
and, who evidently see an opening in
which they can crawl to annex honors
rghtfully belonging to the Parkside or
p. n. n. teams, be allowed TO partici-
pate in games for any title? ! don't
think so. But. | hardly think the shop"

PARIS, Jan. 15.-Indications now are
that the trial Of Joseph CaillauX, for
mer French Premier and Finance Min
ister- will not come before the Senate
sitting as a high court. Exactly a
year ago day Caillaux was arrested
by representatives Of the court martial
the enemy and has been held in Gus
tody in a Paris prison ever since. TO
the charges against him have latterly
been added the more serious one of in
telligence with the enemy, the penalty
for which, under the French code, is
death. Accused with him at present
are Deputy named Loustalot and
disbarred lawyer, Paul Comfy.
1t is always possible, however, owing
to the manner in which all these trea
son cases, including those of Bolo
Pacha and the "Bonnet Rouge" gang
which have already been disposed of,
are interconnected that Charles Hum
Journal" who is also awaiting trial,
may be brought before the Senate for
trial with Caillaux, as we'll as several
OF the minor fry whose cases are un-
dergoing investigation.
Hearst's Name Brought In
Direct interest centres in the case
against Humbert, for the investigation
thereof involves inquiry into the exact
relations between him and Hearst,
Bernstorff, Bolo Pacha and various
German America bankers concerned
in the transfer of German money, which
it is alleged was used to enable Hum
bert to secure control of the journal" !"
1t was IN the "Journal," it will be
remembered, that there appeared early
in the war an astonishingly lardatory
article concerning Hearst. The French
government subsequently shut down
the Hearst international News Agency
here by dcpriving representatives Of
telegraphic or cable privileges.
The trial of Caillaux by the Senate
formally opened on October 20. The
whole matter was then referred to q
special commission of the Senate to
consider the evidence and report to the
full court. Senator Press, president of
this commission, whose functions more
or less resemble those Of the grand
jury, has been studying daily for three
months the seven thousand documents
in the case, running into $4,000 pages,
and does not expect to complete the
work until the middle of March, On
his report the commission will formu-
late recommendations on which the
Senate will act.
