DEFENSE LAWYERS
They Attempt to Disprove That
There Was ANY Criminal Con-
spiracy As Charged

Chicago, Aug Attorneys for. the
defense in the baseball trial today
opened ten hours of argument in an
effort to convince the jury that there
was no conspiracy between former
White SoX players, and alleged gam
blers to throw the 1919 worlds series
to Cincinnati. @@@
Henry Berger, representing Karl
York. st. Louis, opened for the. de-
Tense which probably will complete
its case late today or tomorrow morn
ing, after which the State will close
in about two hours, the case going
to the jury later todayGor Wednesday.
Judge Hugo Friend has announced
that he will not sustain a verdict of
guilty against Fork whose testimony
dealt for the most part with technical
ties of the conspiracy laws. Michael
Ahern assisted Mr.. Berger who will
be followed by Thomas Nash, rep
resenting Felsch, Weaver and Ris-
berg. James c.. O'Brien, representing
Gandil, and Ben Short, representing
Cicotte, Williams and Jackson will
be among other defense attorneys to
be heard. or the eleven defendants
originally on trial Ben and Louis Levi,
alleged gamblers, have been dis
charged. and Judge Friend announced
he would direct verdicts of not guilty
for Felsch and Weaver unless more
evidence was found go"
Attorneys for both state and de-
Tense today predicted speedy ver-
dict in their favor. "The state has
fully established the puilt of all the
defendants" said George German,
chief counsel for the state. "Three
have confessed. The confessions have
not been denied. Clearly the state has
proven the charges in the indict-
ments."
