Big UpheavaI Said 70 Be in

Investigation Goes on in the
White S0x Scandal.

CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Startling de-
velopments in connection with the
reconveaed special grand jury's in
vestigation of baseball gambling next
week were indicated today by Presi-
dent Ban johnson. of the American
league in discussing his reasons for
sending a telegram to President
HeydleF, of the National league, op-
posing as premature the conference
of the club owners here Monday to
frame a new governing tribunal for
professional baseball.
81 do not care to attend any con-
ference to discuss . new baseball
tribunal until the report of the spe-
Cial grand jury, which reconvenes on
Tuesday, Is made I know whom it
indicts," he said.
johnson admitted having wired
President Heydler his belief that the
conference of major league club own
ers scheduled for Monday would be
mistake in view OF the incompleted
work of the Cook county grand jury.
He said:
'This grand Jury has accomplished
already what no other agency has
been able 20 do. and has done it with
a celebrity that astonished everybody.
It's work Is not finished. In fact, 1t
is my information that cleWS are now
in hand which may lead to the dis
closure of more facts than have yet
been dreamed OF. l believe that all
attempts to reform baseball by new
tribunals should be deferred until we
know who's who in baseball
Some people have been made sore
by the exposures already made. More
may be made sore when the in
formation likely to come before the
grand jury next week is known.
i mo other investigating body, in
capable of summoning witnesses and
examining them under oath, could
have turned up the crookedness that
has already been uncovered by the
grand jury in the short space of time
in which it was done. l believe the
developments of the coming week will
be even more surprising to the pub
lie.
Judge Mcdonald is honest in his
determination to expose all dishon-
esty in baseball. and l am willing to
give him all the aid In my power. l
think all the friends of baseball ought
to stand by him and await the de-
cision of this grand jury before tax
ink any further action.

SHOULD BE REAL BATTLE.

The eight-round sketch between
Kid Roth and Battling Burgess
should be one OF the greatest slug
tests that have been uhreeled at the
local punch emporium in long time,
for it will bring together a pair OF
d-hitting birds who love each
other like Terence MacSwiney loves

not hesitate to wade in and crack
up each others windshields.
Roth and Burgess met some time
ago at time when Roth was knock
ing all corners stiff in a round or
so. Burgess didn't flop, but gave
Roth hard battle. Burgess lost
the fight but he gained a lot of
prestige by his fine showing. He
asked for a return date with Roth.
Burgess claimed Roth wouldn't meet
him again.
Roth's bristles arose and he an

MOORE MEETS RICHIE.

Memphis Pal Moore, bantamweight
champion, is dated to show Louisville
fight fans how a champion can fight
Friday night when he meets Johnny
Richie, of Milwaukee. in a 12-round
engagement. Moore has met Richie
on several occasions, one of which
was in Memphis, when Pal showed
Johnny more gloves than he had
seen since his last visit to sport
ing goods store.
Richie claims to have beaten Pal
on later start, however, and the
pair are going on in a sort of grudge
mill and those who have seen Pal
fight a grudge battle realize what
his opponent is up against. for Pal
is a whirlwind when he really gets
his dander up.
Moore will more than likely appear
in Memphis some time soon. Pro-
moter Hack is trying to secure Jack
Sharkey or Joe Lynch for Pal in
Memphis. and expects to clinCh the
match within the ensuing few weeks.
1t is probable that Pal will show
here between now and Christmas.
Moore always is anxious to show
before the home folks, and says he's
ready when called on.
