on a 10-game winning streak. AS
result the Tribe was plunged into

somewhat shaky yesterday. as the
Indians took an 8-to-1 drubbing from
the Yankees and the Boston Red Sox
divided a double-header.
That loss, the ninth in 10 games
left the Indians only two percentage
points ahead of the Sox. The only
Indian run was an unearned one in
the first inning and from there on
Johnny Allen moved them down, CIV
ing only hits and tanning 9. The
Yanks belted Mel Harder for 13 blows
before he retired in the eighth.

THE Red Sox came from behind in
- the ninth to take the opener OF
their bargain bill with the Chicago
White Sox, 4 to 3. behind Lefty Groves

however, in the afterpiece when Zeke
Bonura hit his sixteenth and seven

The Tigers tightened their hold on
second place by rallying to beat Wash

HER victory over Miss Jacobs at

immense satisfaction, but she knows

Unless, as a result of her English

Those who know her will be quick to
say that the foregoing remark was
not necessary, that if she Is able to
play she will play and would have
no thought of doing anything else.
As for Miss Jacobs, she is expected
to make her first appearance on the
Atlantic seaboard at Seabright, where
she likes to play and where she is
very popular. Whether or not Mrs.
Moody will appear there is doubt.
She has never been at her best at

W|GHTMAN PLAY
|. BIDS GIVEN BOTH
Figured They Will Decide
to Carry on Into U. S.
Title Event.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK, July 12.-Out Of the
mass OF conjecture concerning the
entrance Of Mrs. Helen Wills Moody
IN the women's national singles,
which-in conjunction with the mems
singles-begins Thursday, August 30,
We seek In vain for definite fact.
In another direction, however, q
fact exists which may appear hope
full to those who are anxious to see
the two Helens renew their rivalry in
this country. Both, so we learn from
the U. S. l.. T. A., have received no.
tice of nomination as candidates for
the Wightman Cup team and have
not declined to serve.
Inasmuch as this international
match will be held on the American
side Of the Atlantic, August 1917,
there is yet time for declinations.
But the fact that none has come to
date is accepted optimistically by
powers that be as evidence that both
Mrs. Moody and Miss Jacobs are
minded to play.
If Mrs. Moody does play without
further injury to her back in the
Wightman matches, it is believed she
certainly will carry on to the ma
tional women's singles. Sporting rea-
sons, If none other, would incline her
to seek further test of her gallant
comeback in the sport in which she
once was aioofy supreme.

PEIPING, June II GN.S).
Less than a week after forcing
China to accede TO demands
making her virtual ruler OF the
Peiping-Tientsi area, Japan to-
day sensationally presented a new
ultimatum to extend her influ-
ence westward to inner Mongolia.
Shocked by the latest demands,
Chinee leaders were understood
to have warned Japan serious
consequences" would result ana
to be planning an appeal to the
United States and chief Euro
pean powers.
In their new demand the Japa'
nese requested the removal OF the
governor of Chahar province, IN
ner Mongolia, and the evacuation
of his troops.
The japanese also demanded ex
tension of the Hopei province
agreement to apply to Chahar
BY this agreement the Chinese
would remove all government Of
ficials hostile to the japanese and
supplant them with men friendly
to Japan.
If China were to comply with
the new demands. Japan thus
would extend her virtual rulership
far to the west, a move which
foreign observers here believed
would be certain to arouse Russia
and force the Soviets to take
counter moves.
Almost coincident with the
Chahar demands, the Manchu.
kuon government today lodged a
protest with Chinese authorities
over alleged illegal detention and
imprisonment of four japanese
Kwantung army officers in Cha
har Province early this month.
The incident was brought sud-
denly to a head this morning with
filing of the protest, and a few
hours later the drastic Chinese
capitulation in Chahar was de-
manded.
The protest charged many anti
japanese activities were carried
on in Chahar, and warned the
KWantung Army was ready to use
force to eliminate these anti-Japa-
nese elements.

ROCKVILLE, Md, June H.
This town is wide awake today.
Ann Lyddane is responsible.
For she went on trial today to de-
termine her share, if any, in the
alleged conspiracy to murder her
husband, Francis ''Slom" Lyddane.
Pretty, feminine and chic, the
former Rockville bank clerk has
furnished juicy tidbits of gossip to
residents for the past three years.
Talk of the Town
Her affair with Arthur Beall,
Jamestown (MdO garage owner,
has been the talk of the town.
Recent disclosures linking Mrs.
Lyddane with underworld charac-
ters have caused housewives to for
get their daily chores in the more
exciting environment of the Mont
gomery county circuit court, where
gentlemen of unSavory reputation
have testified about meetings in
roadhouSeS and retainer" fees.
One man, George "Googy" Car
nell, former bartender, eX-convlct,
already has pleaded guilty and
waived trial. He was promised
immunity by the States attorney
for testifying against John Martin
Boland and Mrs. Lyddane.
ReSourcefuI Woman
Friends and acquaintances Of
the accused woman say she is
extremely intelligent, clever and
resourceful. She needs all these
attributes as she faces the jury
and judges. Conviction means
prison with a maximum penalty
of 10 years.

JAPS THREATEN
CHINA ANEW

PEIPING, June IL G.NSD.
A series of new secret demands by
japanese militarists were received
by Chinese authorities today.
Chinese leaders admitted they
we're extremely worried over this
latest development of the North
China crisis, but declined to re-
veal the nature of the demands,
which seriously aggravated the
situation.
Despite the japanese foreign
office statement that future ad-
ministration of North China has
nothing to do with the Japanese
government, militarists were re-
placing provincial and municipal
officials with pro-Japanese func-
tionaries.
japanese newspaper correspond
ents filled their papers in Tokyo
and other cities with accounts of
a plan foreshadowing formation
of an independent political zone
north of the Yellow River.
Their general agreement on de-
tails indicated that their sources
were authoritative.
The new zone, it was reported,
would comprise Hopei. ShanSi,
Shantung and Chahar Provinces.

Women Leave Work
For LYddane Trial

Just as her stern, white-haired old
father and her frail sister are
doing.
What they are thinking, how
they feel about the whole sordid
affair, they only know. But, dur
ing the trial they will sit by
Anne Lyddane, giving her the
face" she has lost.
Arthur Beall. the man in the
case, is expected to testify. He has
already been subpoenaed.
But Beall isn't going to testify
for the woman who risked all for
his love. Instead he will tell of his
relations with her, and what he
knows, if anything, about the al
legged conspiracy.
Through With Anne"
Strutting around the corridors
of the courthouse yesterday, he
made no secret Of the fact that
he is through" with Anne Lyd-
dane. That his relations with her
were simply an "affair"-no more
no less. He said so to anybody
who was sufficiently interested to
listen.
Beall is a big, attractive man
with thinning gray hair. He looks
his 42 years.
If Anne Lyddane figured he
would marry her if "Slom" and
Josephine Beall we're no longer in
the way, she was sadly mistaken.
He said yesterday:

8 Men, 2 Women Face
Liquor Plot Trial

Eight defendants, two of them

trict Supreme Court Justice James
M. Proctor and jury today on
the first conspiracy indictment to
be filed after the repeal of the
national prohibition act.
They are charged with conspir-
ing to bring into the District
large quantities of bootleg" liquor
much of which the Government
claims had been released through
local retailers before the alleged
plot was nipped.
The defendants. all of New

Benjamin Feinberg, William

According to Assistant United

who with Assistant George E. Nc
Neil in conducting the prosecu-
ton, the arrest of the defendants
early in 1884 followed the seizure
of two truckloads of liquor from

mate distributing firm with offices
in the Southern Building.

excused. Ten jurors had been Sc
lected by noon. Any of the 10
may be challenged later.
It appeared likely that the Sc
lection of a jury would consume
most Of today's session.
When testimony opens, States
Attorney James H. Pugh and his
assistant, John Oxley, will call to
the stand John "Googy" Carnell,
Rockville ex-bartender, who has
testified that Mrs. Lyddane per-
suaded him to hire the services
of some man who would send
"Slom" to his death.
Carnell gave his testimony
after pleading guilty to the indict-
ment and turning States evil
dence against John Martin Boil
and, who has been on trial for
two days and in whose case the
three trial judges reached a YER
dict late yesterday.
BOland Verdict Withheld
Announcement of their decision
was withheld in the Boland case
until the trial is concluded for
Mrs. Lyddane.
Although Boland's trial took less
than two days, Mrs. Lyddane's
case will occupy much more time.
AS the trial of Mrs. Lyddane
opened, Chief Judge Hammond
Urner said the attention OF the
court had been called to the
wholly unjustifiable publication"
in a Washington morning news
paper purporting to state the
conclusion of the court in the
trial of Boland.
Judge Urner added:
"The court will state that
this incident is not closed"
His statement was made follow
ing a conference in chambers be-
tween the three judges who heard
the case against Boland.
Boland took {. trial by court, as
he is permitted to do under Mary
land law. Mrs. Lyddane asked to
be heard by a jury. The selection
of the men will occupy several
hours.
Mrs. Lyddane has the legal tai
ent of State Senator Stedman
Prescott, Robert M. Peter, ir., and
Kenneth Lyddane. Her attorneys
have an array of defense wit
nesses that will occupy many
hours on the witness stand.
BealIS to Testify
In the Lyddane trial, Mrs. Ar
thur Beall, wife of the Darnes-
town man Mrs. Lyddane is said
to have been friendly with, and
Beall himself probably will be
called to testify.
Other indictments charge that
Mrs. Lyddane also plotted to kill
Mrs. Beall. The indictment that
Mrs. Lyddane is being tried on
charges that she conSpired with
Boland and Carnell to kill Lyd'
dane.
Other indictments charge her
with solicitation of the murder of
Lyddane and Mrs. Beall; conspir-
acy with Carnell and Edmund j.
Davis to murder Mrs. Beall, and
conspiracy with Carnell and Harry
Thomas to murder both Mrs. Beall
and Lyddane.
