 Prosecutor Explains Action
 MT. Grove, in a statement explain
 Shortly after Feb. l. I directed my second assistant, G. E. German, to have the so-called baseball cases set for trial at the earliest possible date and the trial was set for March IA We were amazed to find that investi- gation conducted by my predecessor before the October grand jury was not a full investigation and that witnesses were permitted to withhold material evidence and were excused from ans wering questions which would uncover the entire conspiracy. We were fur ther amazed to learn that all of the testimony taken before the grand jury was being publicly offered for sale by a New York newspaper syndicate.
 "We then learned that Cicotte, who had testified before the grand jury that he was party to this conspiracy and had received $1O,000 as his share and Claude Williams and Jot Jackson, who testified before the grand jury to their participation in this crim, and stated that they had received s500t apiece, had been corruptly, or other. wise, brought under the domination of other defendants who had not testi.

 But the arrival of Brewster and my self popped up the gang. They let loose yell. Brewster hurried into a suit Though he had been up all night and had gone through some astounding experiences he insisted he felt fine and fit He took the slab at the first of the sixth stanza.

 CHICAGO, March 17.-Immediate prosecution of Chicago White Sox baseball players and others indicted in connection with the alleged throw ing of the 1919 world series collapsed today when the state, charging CO., operation of its chief witnesses, dropped the cases against seven of the players and Judge Dever took the oth- CTS off the court roll.
 Tonight, however. the state began preparing a new case with announce ment that the matter would be placed in the hands of a grand jury again tomorrow and re-indictment of the players whose cases were dropped sought.
 Long Postponement Denied States Attorney R. E. Grove took charge of the case today. He ordered l the cases dismissed after his plea for six months in which to gather new evidence had been denied and May 2 set as date for trial
 l Tonight, in a statement, Judge Grove placed the blame for the collapse of the case on his predecessors in office, charging they had handled it improp- erly, on an alleged conspiracy. which 1 he said had defeated justice and cor rupteds Joe Jackson, Eddie Cicotte and Claude Williams, the men who con | nounced that he planned to go person. ally before the grand jury tomorrow to seek new indictments.
 1 He pledged himself to use every means to bring the guilty persons to justice" declaring that many guilty persons had not been indicted and that important witnesses were excused from answering questions which would have brought the real conspirators to justice.
 White Sox Players Dismissed
 MT Crowes action released Joe Jackson, Eddie, Cicotte, Claude Will Hams. Buck Weaver, Oscar Felsch, Swede Risberg and Fred McMullin from custody their cases being dis missed. The cases against Chick Gan l dil. Hal Chase, Joseph J. Sullivan Rachael Brown, Abe Attel and Will 1 liam Burns, the latter five charged with engineering the alleged world series deal, were taken off the call. but may be brought up again. The cases dismissed were those of the men who had surrendered and given bail. There was little prospect of the men return ing to baseball, however, all being un- conditionally released and on the in eligible list.
 Mir Grove told Judge Dever that grand jury testimony hah been stolen and that a conspiracy had hampered the state. He demanded six months tt gather new evidence.
 l, When Judge Dever replied 60 days was the limit, Mir Grove shouted:
 Well, the game is called, then. IT task nolle prosequi."
 Judge George Barrett, American league attorney, persuaded him to droI the case only against the men who had given bail and this was done Judge Dever ruled that MT. Groves
