CONTROL. OF SENATE "b0UGH1" "bYG. 0.P|e
 DECLARES DANIELS
Secretary Declares Republi. cans "Out On Ball." Will
 be in Jail

Reidsville, N. C.. Oct. L. Asserting that the Republican party did not twin" control of the senate in 1918 but bought it," Secretary Daniels declared in an address here today that "never before have the hopes and desires of the American people been frustrated by the purchase oi control in the senate"
 The Republican majority is "to- day out on ball." MT. Daniels said adding that "as soon as the supreme court acts it will be in the peniten- tiary."
 But for the purchase of a seat in the senate from Michigan" the sec retary declared, "the Republicans could not have organized the sen. ate, could not have packed the for eign relations committee against the league of nations; could not have packed the finance committee against any reduction of taxes, and could not have picked the other commit. tees against any legislation looking to the reduction of the cost of liv- ing. By means of this slender and corrupt majority, every measure looking to world peace and world sta bility and national development has been frustrated"
 Scores Record.
 MT. Daniels scored what he de. scribed as the "do nothing" record of Republicans during their control of congress, declaring they had been "recreant to their promises" to re- adjust war taxes and reduce the cost of living although they had "ablosute power" to do this for two years. But for three promises "since repudi- ated' and the fact that -four mil. lion young men serving their coun- try in War could not vote," the Re publicans never would have secured a majority in the house, the secre- tary asserted.
 Under Wilson's administration Mir Daniels declared there had not only been greater prosperity than under any Republican administration in the history of the country, but it had been more diversified.
 He added that the slight depres. sion they are experiencing now in some lines may be attributed largely to the effect upon European markets of this country's failure to ratify the peace treaty.
 Every farmer who is not getting a fair price for his cotton today, MT Daniels declared has been deprived of it by the action of the senate obligarchy in blocking the treaty. This, in less measure, is also true ot tobacco, he said.

Grand Jury Probe
 Hears More Proof of Thrown" Games

Chicago, Oct. 1.-The Cook county grand jury Investigating the baseball scandal today received further in- formation concerning the throwing of games in last years worlds se- lies, but devoted most of the days session to an investigation of alleged crooked work in the National league.
 William Veeck, president of the Chicago National league club, told the jury of his private investigation of charges that the Philadelphia- Chicago National league game of Au- gust 31 had been fixed for Philadel- phia to win led him to believe the club itself had been made the "suck- CT" in the case and other witnesses gave additional details of the activi- ties which led to the discharge from baseball of Lee Magee and Hal Chase.
 Veeck said evidence he had found in Detroit convinced him there was no crooked work in the August 31 game. He said he believed the gamb- lers themselves had sent him the teleerams received before the game saving it was "fixed" and that they had done this to make the club switch from Hendryx, a comparatively weak pitcher scheduled to hurl, to Alexan- der one of the best in the league. This gave Chicago its strongest pos sible line up, which was the what the gamblers wanted, he said. Many of them bet on Chicago to win and not on Philadelphia as had been re- norted. Veeck declared.
 Garry Hermann, president of the Cincinnati club and formerly chair man of the National commission, pre- scented affidavits from Christy Math- ewson, former New York pitcher, and Cincinnati manager, Greasy" Neale Cincinnati outfielder, Jimmy Ring Cincinnati pitcher, and Manager Nc Graw of the Giants. These affida' wits. he told newspaper men, abso lutely proved the guilt, of Chase ant Magee.

SISTER HAS FAITH LORD MAYOR IS TO
 SURVIVE HIS FAST
Family Has Noted Physician to Examine Striker to See
 If He Gets Food

London, Oct IA bulletin issued by the Irish Self Determination lea que at o'clock tonight said that Lord Mayor Mac Swiney was much weaker and in considerable pain. His wife, who had not visited him for two days because of her indisposi- tion, found him much wasted, the bulletin added.
 Annie Mac Swiney, sister of the hunger striking lord mayor of Cork, told the Associated Press today that Sir Norman Moore, noted special. ist who visited her brother recently in Brixton prison, told her after an examination he was, certain Mac Swiey was receiving no nourishment. "We wanted some one who was en- tirely free from the home office or other governmental connections to make a thoruogh, impartial exami- nation," said Miss Mac Swiney. "Sr Norman was recommended as one of the best authorities available. He made an analysis of all medicines ad- ministered to my brother from time to time to allay severe headaches and other local pains, he inspected oils and other preparations used in massaging his limbs to prevent bed sores and other skin troubles and made as.minute examination of his heart and lungs.
 - Can't Understand.
 "The physician questioned the phisoer, his nurses and attendants and at the conclusion of his exam iatio said it was certain my brother was receiving no.nourishment in any form.
 "I cat understand how he live-de- spite his long abstinence from food he does not appear to be dying man, in fact, I do not consider him in immediate danger of death, Sir Norman told us. He expressed the belief that either of three things would be most likely to eventually bring death-.a. clot of blood on the brain or heart, due to sluggish cir culation; rupture of the lungs, due to it's weakened state since his se- were attack of pleurisy several years ago, or heart failure during sleep when his vitality is at it's lowest That's what Sir Norman said, but somehow do not believe there will be any, cause. We have faith that my brother is destined to live"
 Sir Norman Moore left for the country immediately after his visit to Brixton prison. He returned to London this afternoon but refused to be draw into a discussion on any phase of the case, saying profession al ethics forbade him to do so.
