still retain their old customs and at

NEW YORK-Ban Johnson has
his head below the trenches again.
With the enemies lining up here
for the last big offensive, the Ameri-
can league boss was expected to re-
main in his dugout.
Colonel Jacob Rupert of the
Yankees, Chas. Commsiky of the
White Sox and Harry Frazee of the
Red Sox, the field generals who seek
to blow Johnson off his throne were
gathered recently for board meet
ing.
James Dunn, fourth member of
the board, and Bans chief lieuten-
ant, was invited to attend, but he
preferred to remain in the bomb
proof with Ban.
The belligerent faction is now in
its last few days to make good its
drive and reach its objective. Early
this month the league meets and a
new board of directors will be nam
ed. If Ban has his way not one of
these three will be given a place
where they can cause him one wor-
rled moment And Ban may have
his way at that meeting as the club
owners appear to be lined up five to
three in his favor.
The trio of insurgents" has to
work fast. They probably will start
with a formal meeting and perhaps
make a snappy request to the ma
tional commission to turn over the
Yankees share of the world series
coin. The third place of the re-
apparently won by the New Workers
is being held up by the protest of
Frank Navin, a Johnson ally, who
claims the Yanks are not entitled to
credit for any game Carl Mays won.
II his contention is upheld his Tigers
would profit by about $500 each.
Although they do not relish the
idea of lending dignity to the minors
about several White Sox players in
the recent series, the board discuss
ed the wild tales that have been
bobbing up about "fixed players" "
thrown games" etc, since the close
of the series.
They may discuss it but there may
be no official consideration if it..
Some believe it shoud be inyesitaget-
ed to cut out the talk. Others he
lieye it would be an indicrtion Of Il
tendency to believe the stories If
they were investigated by the board.

ADELAIDE. South Australia
Data shedding light upon many diff

Two men drifted into Ashland
yesterday and applied for aid from
the local home service department
Of the Red Cross. According to theil
story they had been held up by ban
dts, robbed of their money and lef
tied up for thirty-six hours withou
anything to eat. As these men, or a
least one OF them, showed an army
discharge their story was taken il
good faith and the members of the
home service department gave then
material aid.
However, before they could get
away from Ashland they ran afoul
of Chief of Police Hatcher, who had
in his possession a description ol
two men wanted in Shasta county
California. for grand larceny which
responded much to the appearance OF
these men. The latter appeared to
become suspicious that the chief
knew more about them than was
healthy for their sojourn in Ashland,
so they beat it of town on II Medford
bound iitney.
On arriving at Phoenix they alight-
ed from the car and purchased some
clothing from their aims received
from the Red Cross, after which they
walked to Medford Here they were
picked up by Policeman Adams on
the telephoned orders of Chief
Hatcher. They were brought back to
Ashland and are being held here for
the Shasta county sheriff to claim
them.
An award of $50 is offered for the
apprehension of two men wanted for
grand larceny. These men. one of
whom was called McDonaldson and
the other Mcdonald, came into Marys-
vile Friday morning in Dodge car
and hired a car from Dunning's gar
age to take them to Oroville After
leaving Marysville they forced the
driver to take them north. About
five miles north of Redding the car
was abandoned and all trace of the
men lost.
James L. Richardson, sheriff OF
Shasta county, writes TO Chief Hatch
er that tsese men are supposed Ia
have been in Kennett, Calf, Noyem-
ber 22. where they applied for aid
from the Red Cross, securing 50 and
an order for meals and lodging
which they did not use. The one
presumed to be No. 1 in the descrip-
tion forwarded had Il bank book on
the Bank of FL Centre. Calf, and
gave the name of d. NJ. Churchill
showing a deposit October 2S. He
is slightly lame. The one supposed
to be No. gave the name of Me-
Bride and shows a discharge from the
Canadian army. The men arrested
here last night answer these descrip.
tions sufficiently, it is claimed, &c
warrant their detention until the
Shasta county sheriff arrives.

They are not hostile to strangers
but when they are suspicious they
often shoot first and inquire after
