RECRUITS HOLD

MAJOR CIRCUIT
Lloyd Waner, Pirate Out
fielder, Has Sensational
Rise to Fame

New York, June i1.--lP,--Thc
major league spotlight has been
focused chiefly this season on the
comcbacks of the veterans, the feats
Of such warriors as Ty Cobb, Rogers
Hornsby, iris Speaker. Babe Ruth
and, lately, Walter Johnson; but
it's rays now may be shifted to in
clude a number Of recruits who have
jumped in to keep pace with the old
timers.
The hopes Of many newcomers
have been blasted during the first
two months of the baseball campaign,
but from their ranks at least ten
have emerged so far with the hall
marks of stardom.
Waner Rises
The rise of none has been more
dramatic than that Of Lloyd Waner.
\ 20-year-old outfielder, who jumped
from the South Atlantic Association
to a permanent job in Pittsburgh S
outer Gordon alongside his brother
Paul. Lloyd was about to be turned
loose during the training season
games at San Francisco, dubbed the
cover off the ball and clinched his
post.
The success Of Waner, obtained
for the proverbial "song" by the
Pirates, has been more conspicuous
than that of Fred Schultz, St
Louis Browns outfield acquisition
Schultz has, however, measured well
up to the 100000 price tag attached
to him when he left Milwaukee.

CROP REP ORT

During the past few days the
weather has been more favorable for
the grain crops of the northwest,
according to the, weekly crop report
issued by Che Van Dnsen Harrington
company Of Minneapolis. The tenn
peratures have been higher and rains
not as frequent as in the past.
There are a few local places, such
as in central Montana and the north
ern part of the Red River Valley
in Minnesota, where there is forced
decrease Of small grains due to ex-
cessive moisture. There is UNI
doubtedly enough moisture every.
where to carry the crops up to the
first of July. Warm weather is very
essential. now as it will tougher the
stem, which at present Is tender,

There is still some seeding Of
coarse grain and corn planting in
North Dakota, Montana and north
ern Minnesota. Up to this time the
season has not been favorable for
corn on account Of the cold wet
weather. Apparently the quality Of
seed corn is not up to standard, and
In some places 1t has not shown

Says Man Used Tools
 450,00O Years Ago

Ottawa, Nov. 16.-(P-Man has been an intelligent creature for 450,- GOO years in the opinion of Dr. k. NJ. Ami, r. R. S. C., president of the Canadian school of pre- history in France. who has just returned from | abroad with 5000 specimens illus trating the evolution of mans indus trial implements.
 Dr. Ami for the past three months has been working in the Moustierian deposits near Bordeaux under spe- clal concession by the French gov ernment. When the task of classify ing the various implements unearth- ed is completed, Dr. Ami believes he will be able to piece together d complete story dealing with the evolution Of implements used by man for thousands of years.
 Tools found while he was excavat- ing indicate to pr. Ami that man was not always engaged in fighting and was indeed very industrious in the glacial ages. Primitive mans deXterity in the manufacture of carving tools and similar instru- ments is amazing" he said.

TWO WIVES CLAIM
 SHOOTING VICTIM
Their Stories Regarded as
 Murder Motive

Highlands, N. J.. Nov. Is R>-
 Stories of two women that they
 were the wives of Herbert o. Meis-
 terknecht. inventor and engineer,
 shot while he stood at the telephone
 in his workshop. were regarded by
 authorities today as furnishing a
 murder motive that dovetailed with
 statements attributed to brother
 in-law sought as the slayer. | Police said Alex Schreiber, e
 brother of Mrs. Sophie Schreiber ' Meisterknecht, had charged that the
 inventors marriage to his sister was bigamous, as Meisterknecht had an-
 other wife living in Yonkers, N. Y. Irving Parker a lobsterman, said
 Schreiber had run from the work
 shop after the shooting, and handed him a card with his name and ad- dress on it. with the words T have shot my brother-in-l law"
 Mrs. Susan Meisterknecht of Yon- kers told police she had never been divorced from the inventor but that he had left her about two years ago for the woman now known as the second Mrs. Meisterknecht At the parting, the first wife said, he made her sign a document that she had only been his housekeeper. He had sent her money, since then, she as serted, but she had only seen him once, at the funeral of their son, who died last month. After the funeral she said. he had written her letters intimating desire for rec onciliation.
 She declared she had known noth- ing about the other Mrs. Meister- knecht beyond the information given her by three men, who called on her at her home in Yonkers recently, saying they were Cleveland descc- tives and asked her if she had been divorced from Meisterknecht. She said she had not been and thel left.
 The first wife was not detained by police following the questioning.
 Mrs. Sophie Schreiber Meister- knecht. formerly Of Cleveland, stop ping with friends at Red Bank, was under Sl0,000 bond as material wit ness, She told police that her broth CT had repeatedly called the inven- tor @ bad character" and charged he was not divorced from his first wife. He had come to the home l Monday she said, and had tried to | take her back to Cleveland. It was l o'clock when he left, she said, 45 | before Meisterknecht was slain.
 Peter J. Olde, lawyer and business partner of the inventor, who sum- moned aid when the sound of five shots intrrupted his telephone con- versation with Meisterknecht from :, N. J., giving first intima- ton Of the crime, was under s5,000 | bond as material witness, as was Irving Parker. lobsterman, who told | police of Schreibers charges against the inventor and of the incidents outside the workshop following the shooting.
 Search for Schreiber was turned | toward Cleveland, when police heard he boarded a train yesterday at Newark for the west. Police believed he had been hiding with friends.

This condition is particularly true of the western markets. which also report a good demand for sta pie goods and fall merchandise.

LAWYER IS GUILTY
 OF WILL FORGERY
Jury Quickly ConVicts ez-Church
 Deacon

New York, Nov. 16.-tPl-Charles r. Wilcox of 50 Pineapple street, Brooklyn. lawyer and former deacon Of Plymouth church, was found guilty of first degree forgery by a jury in Brooklyn Supreme court last night. The case went to the jury at 5:15 o'clock and the verdict came three hours later.
 Wilcox, who was charged with having forged the signature of James S. Schenck to a will disposing of the latters s100,OO0 estate, re- ceived the verdict stoically. In an- swer to questions put by the clerk he said he was 49 and had never before been convicted of a crime. He was graduated. he said from Drake University, Des Moines, la; was admitted to practice law in St. Louis in 1891 and gained admission to the bar Of New York state in 1914.
 Justice Lewis commended the jury for their verdict, saying it was a correct one. He announced he would sentence the prisoner Monday. The maximum penalty is twenty years
 Schenck, a resident of Princeton, \. J., died at 65 Pineapple street, Brooklyn, July '. 1925. By the will, dated two days before, his brother, William Schenck, was cut off with SN 1,n ri Ds was left to any lawful heirs who might survive the testator. Will liam successfully contested the will on the ground his brother was lack ing in testamentary capacity.
 Dr. Robert Boyd and Dr. Joseph Moore, physicians testified that the testator, died of cerebral hemor- rhage. The prosecution charged that the will was signed between and 3 ?. m., July 5, 1925. Dr. Boyd testi- fed that Schenck was In a coma at 3 p. m. that day. Margaret Clifford, a nurse, testified that Schonck was in a coma when she was relieved at 2 D m.
 Dr. Moore said he found Schenck paralyzed and virtually helpless at Il p. m., and Schenck did not ap- pear to comprehend what was go- ing on.
 Wilcox testified that Schoncll was in full possession of his faculties all that day, When the will was signed, Wilcox said, Shenck sat up in bed without assistance, a box was placed on his knees, and he rested the will on the box, and signed it. Miss Dorothy Furman of 29G Locust ave- nue, Long Island City, one of the witnesses of the will, testified to the same effect.
 A deposition of Ernest Lorenzen, the second witness, taken at San Juan, Porto Rico, declared, too, that 1. Schenck had possession of his tacul- ties and sat Up in bed to sign. Will . COX was not q beneficiary in the will, 1. but was named eXccutor.
 Thorne C. Horton, handwriting expert, testified that in his opinion Wilcox signed Schenck's name to the {. will.
