CHIETI, Italy, March IT,.
Crown efforts to unravel the nnys-
terry Of the death of Deputy
Matteoti made but little progress
today.
During the morning session
President DANA placed number
of crown witnesses on the stand
in an effort to confute the story
of Amerigo Dumini, Fascist leader
born IN ST. Louis, that Matteoti
died 4 natural death, choking from
blood while "a the rear OF the kid
mapping car driven By D,lrairi.
Tell Of Knife lNounds
The Grown present medical eyi-
dence tending to Dfesk down Dumi-
mis- evidence.
Whereas Dumini and his counsel
had suggested that Matteoti died
from hemorrhage, caused ny
4ubercular trouble recurring due 70

the Crown presented medical evil

from knife wounds.
The defense. which was directed
by Signor Farinacci secretary Of
the Fascist party, maintained that
Matteoti's body. when found and
examined by the crowns medical
experts, was badly decomposed and
that an expert opinion was impos-
sible.
Don't put too much faith in ex-
perts," was the laconic comment
made by Dumini from the prison
er's cage.
Evidence of Struggle
The crown also spent considerable
time striving to show that there
had been a terrific struggle when
Matteoti had been kidnapped. and
that the deputy was killed during
this struggle. Evidence was pre-
scented that when Dumini and his
comrades were arrested. two days
after the discovery of Matteotis
body, that bruises and evidences Of
battle were found upon their
bodies.
The defense maintained that these
bruises, so far as Dumini was con-
cerned were partly old war wounds
and partly bruises which were re-
ceived in clashes with communists.

GENEROUS SALARY BOOSTS
Owner Breadon Has Another knotty Problem on His
Hands in Disgrhntled Attitude Attributed

have been settled to suit him or it
may not. Hornsby has a notion that
he has again been "butted in against"
In St Louis. and carried this all the
way through the world series.
Hornsbv cannot leave st. Louis
without making himself the target for
a lot of criticism that will cut both
ways. and it is unfortunate that such
a condition should have arisen when
st. Louis won its first National League
championship.
Interests Are Involved.
Interests in the club have been pc
culiarly involved for the last three
years. Branch Rickey has a follow
ing because many think he put the
club on its feet in one way or another.
and Hornsby has following because
the boys on his side think he made
the team a winner when Hickey was
holding blackboard and chautauQua
talks.
And. then again. Sam Breadon has
lot of following for sticking along
and producing winner, which no
other owner has done, and also be-
cause he has Hornsby on one hand
and Hickey on the other. Those are
the only two hands he has. If he had
four hands. he might be better able to
take care Of all his troubles.
Meanwhile, the players want Rrea-
don to he both foreha nded and four
handed when he gives out the con-
tracts. The new world cha mpionS
have ideas about pay that will make
Sam think every cloud in the base
ball world not only has gold lining
hut is built up on a foundation Of the
same metal.

MICHIGAN is GIVEN EDGE
OVER OHIO STATE ELEVEN
Game That May Decide Big Ten Title Is Likely to Be
Contested Under Adverse Weather Conditions.
Practice Retarded by Elements.

CHICAGO, November 10.-Western
Conference foot ball teams girded
themselves today against both the as.
sault of Saturdays foes and the
swirling drives of Old Man Winter.
With the first Wintry week end of
the season in prospect. Coaches rum
mayed in their lockers, and squads for
cold-weather equipment. and prepared
their elevens for muddy or frozen
gridironS.
The importance of the week s ma iOr
encounters discouraged inclination to
pass up scrimmage for indoor work,
and the squads sloshed through long
sessions in the open.
Changing weather brought changes
in dope, but Michigan continues a
slight favorite over Ohio State in a
game which promises to be fought out
in the air.
At Wisconsin Coach Little greeted
the arrival of cold and slush with
definite indications of pony" back
field and lighter and speedier attack
for use against Iowa. Iowa is working
for the third successive victory since
the renewal of athletic relations be-
tween the two schools.
Northwestern is favorite over Chi
cago, but Thistlewaite is leaving no
stone unturned to give the Purple a
decisive triumph. Both elevens la
bored in the snow against freshmen,
with the Chicago youngsters version
of the Purple attack faring discour-
agngly we'll against the regulars.

nj There will be much more of
u task involved in signing
the St. Louis Cardinals 70
contracts for 1927 than to those for
1926, unless some Of them have
changed their minds since they
talked the matter over in a New
York hotel.
Some players are said to have con-
tracts for longer than a year. The
bulletin doesn't state it. 1t looks as
though the salary roll of the St
Louis club. which was not slim by
any means in 1920. will have to be
much stouter next year.
Players who are under contract for
1927 by reason sof long-term agree
ments are Hartnett of the Cubs and
Luque of Cincinnati. No one else is
named in that class.
Rogers Hornsby is hulIetined as
having a regular players contract for
1925. but Ty cobb isn't mentioned as
player or manager. Frank Eavin.
owner Of the Detroit club, must have
thought that Ty was perfectly safe.
And so he was as long AS he was head
of the Detroit team.
Cobb Sure to Return
The next fact of interest in regard
to Cobb is where he will 60 when he
goes hack to base ball. 1t is a safe
wager that he will go back. He is
