GREAT PITCHER
FADING AWAY
Alexander Given Release
For Third Time When
He Fails to Show

CHICAGO, Aug. 6-P-Grover
Cleveland Alexander, once one OF
baseball's greatest pitchers. has
been released for the third time
when he was notified by the Toledo
American association club last
night that his services were not de-
sired. He had never ven worn a
Toledo uniform.
"Old Pete" was released by the
Dallas team of the Texas league
several weeks ago after being taken
out Of the box. He previously had
been given his freedom by the Phil
adelphia Nationals.
Then the Toledo Mud Hens
signed him up. Alexander was TO
have pitched his first game at To-
ledo Sunday. Photographers were
there, even sound movies we're to be
taken, the park was filled with
thousands who came TO see the for
mer world series hero in his much
ballyhooed comeback attempt. But
he tailed to appear.
Oscar j. Smith, president Of the
Toledo club, in Chicago attending
O meeting Of the minor league x
ecutives, heard Alexander was IN
town and went to the hotel room
where the pitcher was supposed to
be staying. He was met by a nurse
who refused TO allow him TO enter.
Smith asked what Alexander in
tended to do and the nurse replied.
Il can't tell you anything about 1t.
I suppose when there is anything
10 be said, MI. Alexander will COM
municate with you"
The nurse refused to take any mes
sage to her patient so Smith went
down to the lobby and wrote the
following telegram:
The Toledo Baseball compan
hereby notifies you that the deal
for your services is called off ana
the Toledo Baseball company does
rot desire your services"

and asked that Macdonald interview
them. In speaking Of Miss Thomp-
son, he said she was so plain and
commonplace" that there would be
no need of seeing her.
MacDor4ld went directly from
Payne's office to the home of Miss
Thompson. She made a written
confession involving Payne IN a
love affair.
She stated that when she told
Payne she did not care TO marry
a man with three children, he said
he would take care Of them"
Payne had posed in Amarillo as a
model husband and had requested
newspapers TO publish interviews
with his neighbors and relatives
stating that he was a perfect hus-
band, that his devotion to his wife
and children was unequalled by
that of any other man n Amarillo.
He also made this request OF Mac
Donald.
Letters Are Found
When Payne was arrested last
night, two letters were found on
his person, one addressed to Sher-
iff Bill Thompson of Amarillo and
the other to Police Chief Mcdowell
Of Amarillo.
The letters were written in long
hand and were identical in Ian
guage. They stated that the writer
was a safe blower and that the
night before Mrs. Payne was killed
a quantity Of high explosive was
placed by mistake IN the wrong
coupe. The writer said he believed
the mistake by the gang Of safe
blowers had resulted in Mrs. Payne
being killed by an explosion. The
letters had been stamped and seal
ed.
District Attorney ThomerSon said
he was preparing charges Of muir
der for filing against Payne. Feel
ing was high in Amarillo as news Of
Payne's arrest spread and officers
lost no time in hurrying him away
to the Gray county jail at Pampa.

nor Is there any reason 70 believe
that Sandino's carefully guarded
movements In Mexico City secured
for him an interview with the Pre-
sident.
Life In Danger
While the local newspaper gave
considerable prominence to San
Sandino's arrival and published
az length his movements during the
first week OF his stay in Mexico
City. this enthusiasm waned con-
siderably during the latter half Of
the month that the Nicaraguan and
a group OF his confidential friends
remained In the city. His departure
was barely recorded by the press.
At the same time, the spirit Of
confidence that Sandino demon
strated upon his arrival here like
wise waned as his stay heightened,
and a few days before his depart
ure his feelings was one of in
security, nervousness, and fear. He
himself told frienS5 that Il may
be shot down any time at some
street corner"
The proverb birds OF q feather

atmosphere In which SANDING lived
during his Mexico City visit The

stantiy with him during this pc
Rod nearly all departed with him.
