Authorities Searching For Man Who Started
 Dixie Scandal

New Orleans, August 14-Federal postal inspectors are today continu- ing their search for an unnamed New Orleans man, an alleged pro- fessional gambler whom they charge with having attempted to bribe cer- tain telegraph operators assigned to Southern association baseball parks in a gigantic swindle which was to involve all Southern association cities.
 Since the announcement of p. S. Watkins. a postal inspector. who last week gave a detailed statement of the alleged plan proposed by the New Orleans man in a letter to the opcr ator at Little Rock. the federal agents have refused to discuss the case, or give any information as to what information they have secured. It is known, however, that the in- spectors are still on the trail of the writer of the letter.
 Pitcher Matteson, whose name was brought into the case through hav- ing delivered letter to the operator at Chattanooga, said to contain sim-
 
 Little Rock, did not accompany the New. Orleans team on its brief call here. Manager Dobbs quoted Matte son as saying he believed he could find the letter addressed to him (Matteson) which accompanied the one delivered to the Chattanooga op- orator in his effects when he re- turned to New Orleans.
 Manager Dobbs expressed entire confidence in the statement by Mat teson that he did not know the com tents of the letter delivered to the ChattAnooga telegrapher.
 REFUSES TO TALK
 Chattanooga, August 14.-P. H. Strong, a telegraph operator at sha baseball park, refused to make any statement of the basebSll scandal, except to legal authorities acting un- der advice of attorneys for the West ern Union Telegraph company.
