BABY COUGHL|N IS NOT
DEAD, SAYS OFFICER
Magistrate Discredits Confession Of
"Crank, That He SmOthered
Baby To Death.

Philadelphia, October IL. - Baby
Coughlin is still alive and Is expected
to be identified by his mother before
Friday. Magistrate o. H. Lenhart de-
clares he is certain of that. He tiouts
the alleged confession made by August
Pasquale, "the crank" that he stole
the baby and accidentally smothered it
under his coat. Both the Norristown
police and the Coughlins themselves
share in Lenharts views.
In this stand they are being con-
firmed by the failure to find the child's
body where Pasquale said he had bur-
led it after the woods around Egg har-
Dor and New Gretna had been thor
oughly searched in vain.
1t was in the neighborhood of Egg
Harbor that Pasquale bought small
farm shortly after he succeeded in
obtaining $4,000 from George H.
Coughlin, the missing child's father
on the promise to return the boy and
1t also was there that he was captured
when he attempted to get $4,000 ad-
ditional.

Expect Evidence Of
 An Attempted Bribe
4t1tcher Benton Said to Have Been Offered $500 to
 x Throw a Game -Herzog Admits Being Accused of Offering the Money, But Says He Knows .<f"e ,b Nothing of the Deal

Chicago, Sept 23.-Direct evidence of an attempt to fix a game between the Chicago National League team and the New York Giants was expect ed today when Jacob (Rube) Benton, pitcher for the Giants, appears before the Cook county grand jury investi- gating alleged major league baseball gambling: He is said to have been offered $500 by a former Cub player to throw a game.
 Charles CBuck) Herzog, second base man on the Chicago Cubs, admitted in a statement today that he had been accused of offering an $500 bribe to clared that President John Heyd1er of the National League and President William Veeck of the Cubs knew that he was accused before he knew it himself. He said that they did not want to give him a hearing, fearing publicity"
 Herzog Denies Charge.
 Herzog denied that he had ever been involved in an attempt to throw a game and produced affi- davits by Arthur E. Wilson and Nor man Boeckel of the Boston Braves declaring that they heard Benton de- clare he had won $3,S00 by betting on the Cincinnati Reds in the World series contests last year with the Chi cago White Sox. The Wilson afH- oav1t, as announced held that Ben SoAA A1od IOld VlESOn ana bOeCkel that
 he (Benton) had received a tele- gram from Hal Chase, in which Chase advised Benton to bet on the first two games of the World series that Gin c1nnatI would win, and then to bet that Cincinnati would win the series, or in substance that he (Benton) had taken the advice of Chase and had bet all the money he could scrape to- gether, and as a result had won S3.sOO on the series." The Boeckel affidavit made a similar statement

 In addition to the affidavits Herzoe produced letter from President feydfer in which the latter stated he was convinced Herzog did not have any connection with gambling in base- pail. This letter was dated June 25 after Heyd1er, according to Herzoe had thrashed the matter out wifi, Benton and Herzog, finally declaring uhe whole thing should be dropped and kept quiet.

Dodgers Are Still Five Games Ahead

The Dodgers still retain their five game lead in the National pennant race The Reds yesterday were eliminated from the race. They have ten more games to play, and if they win all of them and the Dodgers lose the remaining six games on their schedule the 1919 champions still would be one and one-half games be- hind the Dodgers.
 The race between Brooklyn and New York has resolved into this: Brooklyn, with a lead of five games over the Giants, has six more games to play-one with Boston and five with New York. The Giants have eight more games to play-two with Boston, one with Philadelphia and five with Brooklyn.
 To win the pennant the Dodgers must win one game from the Giants and the final game of the season with Boston on October 8, or win two of the five games with the Giants. In either case it would be impossible for McGraws men to tie Manager Robinson's teaYn.
