GICOTTE WILL NOT BE PUNISHED FUR

 CHICAGO, Nov. 16.--Eddie Cicotte, Chicago White Sox pitcher whose con- tesaion resulted in numerous indict- mSats by the special Cook county baseball grand jury, in connection with Inc 1919 world series scandal, prob ably will not be punished for his part m the, game throwing, according to bfficials of the states attorneys of nca Cicotte will turn states evil aence when the men indicted are tried and his only sentence will be banish- ment from organized baseball, 1t was said tonight.
 D. P. Cassaday of Detroit, Cicotte's attorney, conferred today with state attorneys over the pitchers confession and possible testimony. At this con- ference, according to state officials, NIT. Cassaday promised that Cicotte would tell the court the same story he told the jury. As a result, 1t was ar ranged for the pitcher to furnish bonds without personally appearing, While other indicted players who have voluntarily surrendered have been re- quired to furnish s10.000 bonds, Ci- cotte's bail was fixed at s5OO0 on the plea of MT. Cassaday that it would work financial hardship upon the White Sox player to force him to put
 
 saday deposited s50O0 in Liberty bonds as bail.
 While no official announcement was made by states attorneys office. an official let 1t become known that but for Cicotte's testimony the jury never would have had sufficient evidence to indict more than one or two persons sfhd that there would be little chance Xer conviction without the pitcher as a state witness.
 Before Cicotte confessed we had reams of hearsay evidence" this off cial said tonight. But none of fl would have held in court We might have returned Q few indictments or IT. but that would have been the enc or the case. We wanted conviction and not indictments. and in order tS get the evidence necessary we had tC have confession. We were certain Cicotte knew more than many other. whose names had been given us. st We went after him. Of course, W, had to concede something to such ( witness and we'd rather see Cicott, Tree and convict the rest than to le them all get away"
 This official refused to say whethe an agreement for immunity had beer reached with Cicotte before the pitche confessed
