LOS ANGELES. Dec. 24.-Con- spring to throw baseball games is not a criminal offense, according to ruling of Judge Frank R. Willis of the Los Angeles superior court today, when he dismissed indictments charg- ing W. Baker (Babe) Borton, former member of the Vernon club of the Pacific Coast baseball league: w. c. Rumler and Harl V. Maggert, former Salt Lake players and Nathan Ray mond alleged gambler of Seattle, with having conspired to throw" games in the 1919 season. Judge Willis not only sustained demurrers filed by attorneys for Borton and Maggert, but held that defects in the indictments could not be cured by a re- submission of the matter to the Los Angeles county grand jury.
 This was said to mean the end of cution was concerned; the eXoneration of the bail and the dismissal of the charges against the four accused men.
 Judge Willis said the players, in signing contracts with the teams, had entered into an agreement to play baseball to the best of their ability. But, he continued, admitting for the sake of argument they had not done so, their act amounted only to a breach of a civil contract and he held, was in no way "actionable as a crim- inal cause"
 He declared the action of the men, if they were guilty, was most repre- hensible, but there was no remedy along the lines of criminal prosecution.
