Cleveland Star Dangerously Hurt
 by Pitched Ball

New York, Aug. 16.-Ray Chap man, shortstop of the Cleveland Am erican baseball club was hit on the head and his skull fractured by a pitched ball in the game with New York here today. The accident oc- cured in the fifth inning when Chap man, while at bat, attempted to dodge a fast underhand curve thrown by Pitcher Carl Mays, of the Yankees.
 The Cleveland player was given first aid on the field and then re. moved to a hospital where physicians later said his condition was serious Concussion of the brain and hemor- rhage developed and physicians said an operation might be necessary. At late hour tonight, however, no op- eration had been performed.
 This was the second serious acci. dent to befall Chapman since he joined the Cleveland team. A few years ago, in the early part of the season, one of his legs was broker during game and he was laid uI the greater part of the season. The teams failure to win the pennant was attributed mainly to his absence from the lineup.
 An X-Ray examination later dis. closed that Chapman had suffered 2 depressed fracture on the. left side of the skull and another fracture or the right side. The hospital sur. geons then decided to perform ar operation without delay.

COMMONS ADJ0RN
 WITHOUT ACTION ON
 IRISH, POLISH CRISES
Government Agrees Not to Intervene Without Parlia-
 ment Consent.

London, Aug. 16.-The House of Commons tonight, without division agreed to the motion of Andrew Bo- mar Law, the government leader, ad- Journing the house until October 19, but empowered the speaker to sum- mon parliament earlier should pub lie interest demand it.
 This, and MT. Bonar Laws under taking that in event of Russia's armistice terms to Poland being ma terially altered, the government would take no action without con. sulting parliament, meets the oppo sition's objections that the country should not be committed to an inter vention against Russia without tho consent of parliament.
 MT. Bonar Law confirmed reports that the armistice terms to Polanc as announced by Russia, had the ap proval of both Great Britain ant Italy, and said that if they were sin cerely adhered to Great Britair would not interfere between Polant and Russia.
 Although today's sitting had beer especially called on account of tn, Polish crisis, it had, from this view point, little interest, owing to tn, lack of news from Minsk on tn, question of the armistice barley. |. Paragraphs in the newspapers re gently, considered by some to hay, been inspired, have led the publi, to expect some new declaration ot policy toward Ireland by the premie, or MT. Bonar Law in lines of do minion home rule, but this expecta ton met with disappointment. MT Lloyd George confined himself t. repeating his previous offer that tn, government would discuss q settle ment with any Representatives O drlsh opinion, not excluding thu Sinn Feiners, provided they accept ed three stipUlations, which he care fully defined--that Northen Ulster SIX counties must be treated sena rately; that there must be no seces sion, directly or indirectly, of an, part of Ireland from the Unite, klngdom, and that the governmen could not agree to anything tha would involve any detraction iron the security of the British Isles a or their safety in case of war.
 This guarded statement, althoug] announcing no new policy, will prob aDiy be interprted as an invitatio, to continue outside discussions O dominion settlement, which hay made such unexpected progress re gently and enlisted support in hith erto antagonistic quarters.

NEW YORK JUDGE FAILS TO SUSTAIN
 THE CLOSED SHOP
Upholds Brooklyn Rapid Tran sit In Rejecting Union Contract.

New York, Aug. 16.-Federal Judge Julius M. Mayer today sustained Lindley M. Garrison, receiver of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company in his refusal to renew the corpora tion's agreement with the Amalga- mated association of Street and Elec trical Employees, which expires Aug ust 28.
 After MT. Garrison had refused to negotiate with representatives of the union, on the ground that adoption of their proposals would constitute enforcement of closed shop princi- ples, a committee today called upon Mayor Hylan to protest. The mayor referred the committee to Judge Mayer, who appointed MT. Garrison expressing the belief that he would the union men.
 In letter to the committee, de. nying it's request for a hearing Judge Mayer expressed surprise at the na- ture of the proposed agreement.
 He pointed out that one provision called for suspension of employees from work for failure to pay unior dues, fines or assessments and the right of the union to collect dues on the, company's property, while an other stipulated the company should send eligible employees to join the union.
 A third provided that no union except those already having agree ments with the company should be recognized.
 obviously the federal court can. not permit it's receivers to greet pro. visions of this character" Judge Mayer said. it is definitely blair that the three proposed amendments 1 in effect demand that the receiver must operate a closed shop"
