passed the store. several stopped to
look at pipes displayed in the window

wanted the cigarettes, suspected what
was going on One of the two robbers
WAS at the cash register when the
customer demanded cigarettes. With
the utmost coolness the man at the
cash register turned and selected the
cigarettes asked for.
He counted 80 cents from the cash
register and gave it to the customer
who had handed him dollar bill and
flung a card of matches and a cigarette
coupon on the counter. Then he re-
turned to his task at the till. Almost
before the customer was out of the
store his dollar bill and all the other
money in the cash register were in the
robbers pocket. He also cmptied the
safe, which was open, getting about

Who Refuse to .Toin Them

OMAHA, Neb, July 2o-Ex-service
men and Industrial Workers of the
World clashed to-day in different parts
of Nebraska, and the ex-soldiers came
out first best. The |. W. W. were given
a taste of the sgredicine which they
have been handing out to others for
the last month. The clashes all took
place on freight trains, where harvest
hands were riding free.
l. w. w. have been beating, robbine
and throwing from the trains ali
harvesters who have refused to join
their organization. By organizing into
bands they were able to intimidate the
others who were acting as individuals,
but to-day the ex-service men on these
trains got together and when the l. w.
w. appeared and demanded the harvest
ers take out red cards they were set
upon by the ex-soldiers and promptly
thrown off the moving trains.
Reports from several points tonight
arc that the eX-service men are re
fusing to permit the reds to come

Nationwide Swindle
Charged TO Gang Here
Federal Authorities TO Trap
Band Viciimizing Mer-

The Federal authorities are prepar-
ing to round up daring band of COM
mercial swindlers making its headquar-
ters in New York, operating through
the parcels post service under fictitious
names and maintaining branch Offices
in fifteen cities throughout the country
Frederick r. A. Stiefel, manager CT
the prosecution bureau of the New
York Credit Mems Association, who is
cooperating with Federal officers and
furnishing evidence for the roundup,
has been working on the case for
months. Mr.. Stiefel said yesterday:
"Within the last few months manu-
facturers and wholesale merchants of
New York in the textile trades have
been defrauded of more than $l0000C
worth Of smcrchandise by clever wsin-
ding games invented by the band of
thieves operating here.
"The members of this gang often
operate under the names of reputable
concerns which have Al ratings with
commercial agencies. The addresses
they give are not the addresses of the
concerns whose name they use. but this
fact most frequently escapes the notice
of the dupes. The orders are filled be-
fore the error is discovered by the ship
pers and by this time the goods are in
the hands Of the thieves"

He Was fastening Home
When Overtaken by Death

HARTFORD, July 20.-Herbert Ir-
win, connected with the firm of Gray
& Davis in Boston, has begun an in
vestigation here into the circumstances
surrounding the death last week of his
father. Arthur A. Irwin, manager of
the Hartford baseball team and for
thirty years a noted baseball figure
The father was said to have jumped
from the steamship Calvin Austin
while it was en- route from New York
to Boston.
Herbert Irwin is said to have been
told that his father had led a double
life for the last thirty years, that ne
had common law wife in New York.
BY this woman he is said to have had
son, who is employed by the New
York Central Railroad. Herbert also
is trying to trace sums of money which
his father had the week before his
death.
Twins legal wife, who makes her
home in Boston, has uttered no blame
of her husband, declaring that his sup
posed misconduct must have been en-
tirely the fault of the New York
woman.
Refusing to believe that her hus-
band could have cared more for his
"other wife" than for her, Mrs. Irwin
said: II feel confident and happy in
the belief that although he had this
other woman in New York he was on
the way to me when he died; that he
knew he was dying, and that he turne d
to ME as the woman he really loved
at the last. He wanted to die in my
! arms
Several weeks ago Irwin was taken
to local hospital, where he was told
that only a serious operation would
prolong his life beyond two months.
Last Thursday Irwin visited James
II. Clarkin, owner of the Hartford
team. On his visit he is said to have
been accompanied by the New York
woman, who he presented as his wife.
He is declared to have left the woman
here and gone to New York, where
he boarded the Calvin Austin for Bos-
ton. After talking with another pas
senger on the deck of the vessel after
it put out from New York he disap-

day by the coast guard service on the
ground that she may be the mystery

of whisky, ostensibly for Quebec.
When the inspectors boarded the ves-
sci her hold was found to be clean
swept--nothing of the cargo was found
aud the leak was said to be not OF n

Some Of the crew said the cargo was
jettisoned in an easterly gale and
drifted ashore at various points along
the New Jersey coast.
The Pocomoke was formerly an Amer
lean vessel and owned at Cape Charles

was present when St. Louis man vol
unteered to put up money to have the
games thrown, but did not know the
mans name.
Some Questions Fired at Burns
Some of the questions asked Burns
by defense attorneys, most of which
were ordered stricken from the record,
are:
weren't you traded by the White
SoX to Cincinnati because you got in
the habit of falling asleep between
innings on the bench ~
did you ever work more than a year
for the same man in your life?"
when you talked of throwing games,
you knew from your own experience as
pitcher that it could be done 2"
"You have no objection to our try
ing to prove that you are not of a
very high mental caliberf'
weren't you traded all over the
country because you were an undesir-
able type of man,"
"How much is Ban Johnson paying
you for your testimony?"
"You know Ban Johnson will do any,
thing to hurt Comiskey, don't you?"
On the direct examination of Burns
George German, Assistant States At
torney, resumed his questioning of the
witness as soon as court reconvened.
when you were in Room 703 of the
Hotel Sinton ehe day of the second
game what happened?" asked German
."Attell and several others were
there answered Burns. "Attell said
Rothstein had 100000 to bet on the
series, but it was hard to get bets
i l, ! -
any money. | insisted on at least
$4,000 Attell showed me piles of
money under mattress. Forty -thous-
and dollars was due the players then
Attell in talking OF Rothstein said
Rothstein had private wire from New
York to Cincinnati, and some one said
that Pittsburgh gamblers were in on
the deal. l don't know who said that
Attell, Bennett and Maharg were there
Some one said the Pittsburgh gamblers
had a hard time getting money down
"Attell then took $4,000 from under
the mattress and gave it to me. | Of
fered it to Maharg He wouldn't take
it. put it in my shirt and took it up
to the players room. | passed Kid
Gleason on the way.
"Risberg and McMullin were in the
hotel room--I don't recall the others.
Later Cicotte and Gandil came in and
I gave the $40 900 to Gandil. There
we're two other players there"
In question and answer form, the
testimony was as follows:
Q.-What did the players say? A
Gandil said they had been double
crossed. Attell said they must win
the third game-the next day-so as to
improve the odds, which then were
three to two in favor of Chicago. At
tell said the odds must be better.
Q.-What did the players say? A
Gandil said they had not won for a
regular pitcher and they wouldn't win
! for "busher."
Q.-Did they know who was going
to pitch the third game? A.-Yes, Dick
Kerr. 1 then went to the train to GO
to Chicago.
At the afternoon session Burns was
excused while August Hermann, OF
Cincinnati, former chairman of the
National Commission and president OF
the Cincinnati club, testified.
