S,cann Inquiry Halted
Can't Find Witnesses

The inquiry by the District At
torney's office into the local phase Of
the baseball fixing scandal has been
halted temporarily because of the In
ability Of process servers to find the
witnesses who are believed to be able
to shed some light on the throwing
of last years worlds series games.
Assistant District Attorney Smith,
in charge Of the investigation, said
that detectives have not yet been able
to find Abe Attell, gambler and former
prizefighter, who is one Of the three
important witnesses the District At
torney would like to take before the
grand jury Process servers stood
guard at Attell's house all through
the night without avail. Mr.. Smith
said. however, that it was only mat
ter of time when they would be able
to place their hands upon him.
The Assistant District Attorney
added that Val O'Farrcll. head of a
detective agency, has promised to
turn over to him all the information
he has in connection. with the matter.
OTarrell was present at tho Hotel
Astor at the time Arnold Rothstcin is
said to have turned down the original
fixing proposition. He gave important
documents and affidavits bearing on
the scandal to Maclay Hoync, States
Attorney of Cook County, H. on the
basis of which Hoyne said he would
be able to obtain convictions of many
of those involved in the Chicago in
quiry. Assistant District Attorney
Smith said that OFarrell's information
would be of great assistance in prose.

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.--"Sport" Sullivan.
Boston gambler, indicted as one of
the principals in the fixing of the 1919
worlds series through the bribing of
eight White Sox players, wrote to
States Attorney Hoyne to-day and @is
said to have laid before him all of the
intricate details of the baseball
scandal.
The contents Of the letter were not

Sullivan's announced plan Of coming to
Chicago to tell all he knew rather than
be the goat for his associates, it was
reported throughout the Criminal
Court Building that he had given
Hoyne important information concern

Gandils Share 100000
AT the same time Investigators were
sent out to trace the Chicago record of
a wealthy oil operator mentioned in
New York dispatches as the man who
had engineered the frame-up. Infor-
nation that some one outside of the
gambling cliques so far implicated had
been mainly responsible for the cor
ruption of the inter-league contest be-
tween Chicago and Cincinnati was
verified by evidence that "Chick"
Gandil, White Sox player, received
from $4,000 to 100000 for his share
in the deal.
1t was pointed out that Gandil re-
ceived his money in ready cash before
the start of the series and that some
one with large resources must have
been in league with the gambling syn
dicate that hired him. The name of the
oil man, coupled with that of a high
