4 Two games today and the fight

gum, against the Griffmen today.
Thurston is leading the league with
fifteen victories and has won his
last nine in row. The Griffs hope
to break that streak today.
George Mogridge, the Duke OF
Rochester, and Warren Curly
Ogden, the Sheik OF Swarthmore,
are scheduled to climb the hill for
the home boys. They may be de.
nended upon to give the invaders
stiff opposition.
Today the Griffs are one game be-
hind the Detroit Jungaleers and 4
game and q half behind the New
York Yankees. They are six games
ahead Of the White Sox, showing
that the race just now is among
the three leaders.
A double triumph for the Griffs,
with defeat for the Jungle Cats,
will put Washington in second
place, one game behind the Yankees.
Two victories for the Griffs, with
q Detroit win, win tie the Griffs
and Yanlks for second place and put
Detroit in first place by half q
game. That's how close this PEN
nant scramble ID these days.

Francis Mcdonald

NEW YORK, July q. After
an AFTERNOON aild half nieht 81
close questioning, Melvin Ware,
4 vagra1t restaurant mental, ar
rested Sunday night in Newark
on suspicion Of having attempted
an offense against an eleven
year-old boy, broke down in the
office Of Captain Of Detectives
Ernest L. Van Wagner, st.
George, Staten Island, last night
and confessed to the murder Of
little Francis Mcdonnell.
The seven-year-old boy was
strangled to death q week ago
yesterday in a weed-grown field
in Staten Island.
Had Confessed Earlier.
Ware, who had confessed earlier
in the day to Turnkey Dowd at
police headquarters, Newark, but
who afterward recanted the COMES
sion, was taken to Staten Island
last night, where his questioning
was resumed.
District Attorney Albert c. Each,
Deputy Chief Inspector Cahalane,
Captain Van Wagner and number
Of detectives were with him when
he suddenly exclaimed:
II killed him. I cannot 60 over
the details. They are too horrible.
I did 1t. My God, all that I want
to do Is to go to the electric chair
and have 1t all over as soon as
possible"
Early Statement.
Before this startling statement
Ware had said:

moods ] have no control OF myself.

The man knew that the detec.
tives were closing in their case
against him. They had stripped
him and carefully examined HIS
body and found It covered with
briar scratches. His arms bore
scratches such as finger nails
might make.
His own finger nails were care
fully bound up 20 that they might
be examined under the microscopes
later In search for particuIes Of
cuticle OF the murdered boy.
Mr.. Each announced that he
would reconvene the June grand
jury on Wednesday and put the
case before It, asking an indict.
ment Of Jacob Argeil's murderer
and quick trial.
