TRIAL OF WHITE
S0X PLAYERS TO
BEGIN MONDAY
Jury at Last Secured tn Try
Men Accused of ThrOtuing
Worlds Series.
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, July lG-The jury which
will decide the guilt or innocence of
the Chicago White Sox players and
others indicted on conspiracy charges
in connection with the alleged throw
ing of the 1919 world series, has been
completed and the actual trial of the
men will begin Monday.
The final panel of four jurors was
sworn in late today amid cheering
from spectators and veniremen of the
kind which generally greets ninth
inning rally by the home team.
More than two weeks had been TAX
en- up in selecting the IL jurors.
Approximately 600 persons were
questioned by state and defense at
torneys.
The defense plans to move that the
baseball grand jury statements of
Edward c. Cicotte, Claude Williams
and Joe Jackson. indicted White Sox
players, be barred from the trial and
that no reference to them be permitted
in the states opening statement. The
defense will contend tina the evidence
given the grand jury by these men
cannot be used, even against tnem-
selves, although they signed immunity
waivers before testifying, In these
statements the three ball players con-
fessed to receiving money to throw"
games, and Cicotte admitted Inat he
deliberately hit Rath, the first man
up in tie first game, according u
state officials.
The jury is made up of two clerks,
two machinists, telephone repair
man, stationary engineer, a steel
worker, a salesman. florist, hy-
draulic press operator and the fore
man of stockyards rendering plant.
All but two are married and their ages
range from 80 to AZ. All said they
understood baseball and occasionally
saw major league games, but none has
ever played semi-professional base
ball and none is student of the game
or of the "fan" type.

ROBBING TRAINS lS NOT REMUNERATIvt

fnarines is very explicit. It is a guards duay to know who is authorized to handle mail, and to allow no one else to handle it. It is his duty to know who is permitted in the room or car where mail is handled and to permit no one else to enter. It is his duty, in case anyone attempts to rob the mails, to take that person, dead or alive, or be able to show satisfactory reason why. And the reason needs to be a good one.
 Under Secrstary Denbys orders" says Mir. Johnson, "about the only req son that Is considered valid Is that the bandit has Killed the marine first"
 "rhere has been an epidemic of mail robberies recently" MT. Johnson con- tinued. T believe the reason is that a lot of young fellows believe there is easy money in large amounts to be had. That is a mistake. Ordinarily the loot obtained from registered sacks Is not easily negotiable, and the bandit, even if he gets away with 1t, gets small proportion of the value of the loot"
