Coffman' S Case
May Go To
Lands
By FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
Times Staff Writer

SIaII writer
The final hearing in the case
Of Dick Coffman, right-handed
pitcher of the st. Louis Browns
who stands suspended for alleged
misconduct and INSTRUMENTATION
by Rogers Hornsby, may be held
in the offices of Commissioner
Kenesaw M. Lands.
Coftman was sent home by
Hornsby following a fist fight on
a train carrying the Browns
eastward on Monday night.
HornSby says that Coffman will
not be permitted to rejoin the
Browns this season.
Up to Director
HornSby grunted disdainfully
at the statement said to have
been made by Coffman to the
effect that he was washed up"
as a manager in st. Louis.
ITS up to the directors of the
st. Louis Browns to say whether
I'm through or not" Hornsby
said today But know this: Just
as long as I'm manager, I'm going
to run the team. No ball player
who works for me can report in
the shape that Coffman was IN
when he got on the train.
According to Hornsby, Coffman
Is suspended indefinitely. Accord
ing to baseball law, if the suspen.
sion is for a term more than 10
days, Coffman will have right
to appeal for a hearing before
Commissioner Kenesaw M. Lands.
Can Reinstate Him
Lands has the authority to or
der the reinstatement of a player
so suspended, and afford adequate
redress if the punishment be held
excessive or not merited.
Hornsby says that several play
ers on the team witnessed the
brawl, and that they commented
on the condition of Coffman at
the time he boarded the train. In
fact, it is said that HornSby
knocked Coffman into the laps of
two of the members of the party.
At least two of the party say
that Coffman's language was not
only abusive but somewhat sui
phuric. and that Hornsby couldn't
afford to take that kind of stuff"

at is there" says Max, and
no less a person than little Icy
Kline Barney Ross trainer and
one of the present Baer staff,
has tipped Max off to the posi-
bic crack" in that now famous
dead pam of Josephs.
It seems that Kline was in a
corner behind Adolph Water in
a Chicago ring last year and it
so happened that the justly cele-
brated Brown Bomber was fight
ing Water. Joie knocked 'Dolph
right smack down in the first
round, and, like Matte Brown, up
popped the honorable and husky
Mister Water with plenty of
fight left in his system to go the
l0-round route.
According to Kline, there was
such an abundance of ram.
bunctiousness percolating through
Adolph's fighting brain that he
became AS unruly as a mustang.
He went right on about his bust
ness of trying to whip the noted
brown boy and though he sue
ceeded not in the cleaning of the
decision at the end of ten rounds,
he had the satisfaction of learn
ing, in a roundabout way, that
the Bomber did not want to con-
tinue after the seventh round.
Kline brought this information
to Baer and Max has been wad-
ing into it. Adam s-apple deep.

Senator Hogan's statement was as follows: "Reaffirming the stand I took in the state senate last January and at the earnest solicitation of hundreds of my fel- low citizens of all parties I now formally announce my candidacy for the democratic nomination for the office of mayor of the city of Torrington. If nominated and elected to that high office the city of Torrington will receive from me an unbossed, honest, economical and business-like administration of their affairs.
 Whether or not MT. Hogan will meet with opposition in his quest for the mayoralty honor will be known within the next two weeks. Democratic caucuses are slated for early September.
 Senator Hogan is very promi- nently identified with. state and local institutions.

DOUBLE DROWNING
 1 INQUEST STARTS
Coroner MOnzani to COn= tinue Probe of Beacon
 Falls Tragedy Today

No new testimony was offered as Coroner John T. Monzani yesterday afternoon held in his offices a form al inquest into the double drown ing tragedy which took place at an outing of Worth's employees near Beacon Falls, August 1st. The cor oner said this morning that two important witnesses, who were un- able to appear yesterday, were to offer testimony as the inquest was resumed this afternoon. The form al inquest by the coroner follows a detailed investigation of the dual tragedy which began shortly after the loaded rowboat capsized, throwing it's occupants into the Wa ter.
 The inquest was postponed until this week to allow time for the complete recovery of two girls who suffered shock as result of their immersion. In the tragedy, Miss Minnie Cohen and Sherman Kra. mer, members of the picnic party, were drowned. Kramer could not swim, while Miss Cohen apparently struck her head against the side of the boat and das dazed as she was hurled into the water.
 The boat was carrying a number of passengers from an island to the mainland and was within Is feet of shore when it sprang leak and, soon filed with water. In the boat and said to be rowing it at the time was David Greenberg, credit man. ager of Worth's.
 On completition of the inquest, Coroner Monzani will review the testimony and issue formal find- ing in which definite blame for the catastrophe may be fixed. State police after an early investigation called carelessness the cause of the tragedy.
