LEWIS CONTEMPT
ruling DELAYED
illinois Court Sets May 10 for
Final Hearing of Mine
Case.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, May THE
Eangamon County Circuit Court yes
terday declined to determine at this
time whether John L. Lewis, president
of the old-line party of the United
Mine Workers of America, and his
associates are guilty OF contempt OF
court.
The court ruled, In connection with
Lewis alleged violation of injunction
obtain by State President Harry Fish
wick and other opponents of Lewis,
that it could not pass on the con-
tempt issue until complete hearing
had been held. May 1c was set Tor
O final hearing.
Under the injunction Lewis was re-
strained from interfering with the
activities of the Illinois district OF the
miners. When called today to answer
charges that he had disregarded the
restraining edict, Lewis, through his
attorneys, informed the three judges
of the court that he was of the opinion
that the injunction had lost its effect
when the Illinois miners deserted the
union and formed a dual organiza-
ton. The dual group to which ne
referred was organized here during the
week of March 10, under the title OF
the United Mine Workers of America.
The answer of Lewis set forth that
at no time had the officers Of the
United Mine Workers intended to vio-
late the Injunction. As long as the
Illinois Union officers remained in the
United Mine Workers Lewis respected
the injunction, his answer set forth.
Lewis was not in court.

TINY WOMAN DIVER SALVAGES
FORTUNES FROM SUNKEN SHIPS
Career Became Fixed in Her
Mind While Small and
as Reporter.
Has Felt Fear Only Once,
When Water Seeped
Into Suit.
BY GRETCHEN s. SMITH.

Salvaging treasures from ships lying
at the bottom of the Great Lakes is but
one of the professional occupations of
Mrs. Margaret Campbell Goodman,
New York delegate, who attended the
fifth biennial convention of the National
League of American Pen Women here
last week.
Mrs. Goodman has lived through
many experiences in a life replete with
adventure, but none has "outthrilled"
those she has encountered while diving
to the bottom of Lake Erie, where, at
the depth Of $50 feet. she has wandered
through the state rooms and corridors
of ships lost over SO years ago. With
the assistance of her company of SAL
vagers, she has brought back to the
world relics and treasures whose owners
lost their lives in the great storms on
the lake half century ago, and whose
identity forever will remain unknown.
Once Was Reporter.
Mrs. Goodman's imagination became
fired when, as small girl living in the
north of Michigan, an uncle told her
tales of treasure ships sunk in the Great
Lakes. Later, as a reporter on the
Courier-Herald of Saginaw, she inter-
viewed an inventor OF a deep-sea diving
suit.
"I realized after seeing that suit of
armor, the great possibilities it offered
to those who would wear it and pene-
trate the depths" said Mrs. Goodman,

whose 4 feet 4 inches in height
and ITO pounds of weight make one
marvel at her courage, Il organized a
company to help recover the treasures
lost on the steamer Pewabic, which
sank in Lake Huron over a half century
ago. We were occupied two years in
this undertaking, but it was worth 1t,
as we recovered many thousand dollars
worth of copper"

Mrs. Goodman added, with the idea Of

Have I ever seen skeletons?" laughed
this remarkable little person. Yes,
many Of them. Sometimes they have
been in stateroons clothed in silks and
laces, with rings and bracelets upon
their bones. am now wearing a gold
ring and a bracelet recovered from a
skeleton at the bottom of Lake Erie.
"It is a strange thing" Mrs. Good
man explained in answer to ques-
ton. silks recovered from wrecks are
brought to the surface almost as good as
the day they were manufactured. But
cottons and other materials fall to
pieces as soon as they are exposed to
the light of day. We have found any
number of trunks and chests, in which
for over so years have been locked the
treasures, jewels and clothes of persons
lost in the lakes while travelling from
the East to the West shortly after the
Civil War"
Hopes to Find Relatives.
Bringing forth from her bag some
pictures of daguerreotypes of a man and
woman clothed in the quaint costumes
of Civil War days, Mrs. Goodman said,
these are some daguerreotypeS which
we recovered from a ship lost shortly
after the Civil War. Many Of the pas
sengers were en- route to California and
I hope that by means of these daguer-
reotypes to locates the relatives OF those
who were lost"
When not engaged in exploring the
mysterious contents of sunken ships,
Mrs. Goodman is writing her exper-
fences, or plays for Broadway. She Is
an officer in the Playwright's Club, one
of the founders of the progressive party
and the founder of the Ad-Craft Club,

Walter Johnson's Griffmen are
playing pennant winning ball!
Yesterday the Washington club
brought to a close its second
home stand against Western op-
position.
Previously this season the
Griffs had Jared poorly against
intersectional rivals. During the
stand closing yesterday, however,
they won exactly IL of Is games.
Despite this 800 showing they
are still trailing the league-lead-
ing Athletics by game. and a
half margin. But, it is logical to
presume, continuation of this
play will sooner or later yield re-
suits
After winning two games and
losing as many to the White Sox
at the start of the Western in
vasion of Griffith Stadium. the
Griffs GRABBED off 10 of their
next ii games. The st. Louis
Browns alone kept them from
peeling off the longest Winning
streak of the year.
Today the Griffmen are to
enjoy q well-deserved rest.
Tomorrow they will inaugurate
fOur-game series over
three-day period with the
mighty New York Yankees.
This is the last set to be
played on the home lot be-
fore taking the road.
The battle for second place
will be outstanding. And then
there's the chance that one Of
the clubs may overhaul the
league leading Athletics, who will
be hooking up with the re-
1uvenated Boston Red Sox.
Tomorrow Sad Sam Jonesa and
Fred Marberry will be sent to
the slab when the clubs open
their series with an Indepned-
ence Day doubleheader. The first
game will get under way at 1:3O
o'clock.
Jones will be making his first
start since June when he was
beaten by the Detroit Tigers, 6
to 2. Before Straining his right
leg the Woodsfield veteran had
won six games and lost two.
Jones and Marberry are unusual
ly effective against the Yankees.
And, if they show their regular
run of stuff, the Washington
Club may celebrate double
triumph by sunset tomorrow.
One Old-time Washington
favOrite who has staged
major comeback with the
Yankees this season is Herb
PennOck, graceful sOuthpaw
pitcher. PennOck has been
particularly prominent in the
recent rush of the Shawkev-
men who have kept in step
with the AS and Griffs dur
ing the past month.
First Baseman Harley Boss,
who has been turned back by
Jersey City to the Washington
Club, submitted his injured knee
to an X-ray examination yester-
day. It was discovered that it is
only slightly damaged. AS a re-
suit Clark Griffith Will endeavoT
to option Boss out 70 some minor
club where he can play every
day.
Walter Johnson's Griffs forged
into undisputed possession of sec.
ond place yesterday when they
won both ends of their double
header with the Browns. The
scores were to 4 and 5 to 3.
Twelve innings were needed to
land the first tilt.
