A majority of the witnesses were
women, many OF italian birth, with
an imperfect command Of English. but
full Of ire because they had been
taken abruptly from homes and shops.
Some of them protested they didn't
know anything
Mr.. DeWey's move was the latest in
a growing political controversy be-
ginning with a campaign radio ad-
dress last october "a, in which he
accused Marinelli Of associating with
Charles Lucky" Luciano, whom Mr..
Dewey sent to Sing Sing for from 30
to so years and with thieves, pick
pockets. thugs, dope peddlers and
big-shot racketeers."
Denied by Marinelli.
Mr.. Dewey's charges were taken up
in his post-electlon absence on vaca-
ton by a Joint committee on the
county clerk" which referred them to
the Governor. Called on by Gov
Lehman to explain. Marinelli denied
everything. Gov. Lehman then wrote
MIR. Dewey.
When Mr.. Dewey received the COM
nunication from the Governor yes
terday he began issuing subpoenas
and called into special night session
last night the special rackets grand
jury originally impaneled by Supreme
Court Justice Ferdinand Pecora-a

The stock reply Of most Of thu

Mr.. Dewey himself was mysterious

Asked whether they were designed

he said:

LOSING TO CH|SOX
Change Of Pitching Style
Seems HeIptu|-Fischer
Sent to Orioles.
BY FRANCIS r. STAN,
STAFF Correspondent OF The Star,

- HICAGO, Ill, July 2l.--The
Grifis today had reached the
Y stage where they were regard
ing st. Louis rs the only pos
sible haven OF safety in the Middle
West. They were 10 end tWo-game
series with the White Sox today and
waste no time catching q night train
for st. Louis.
Tomorrow, you see is an of day and
the Mats could spend it here. But ap-
parently Bucky Harris is anxious TO get
out OF sight Of the White Sox. He
would rather have them sit in the
stands at st. Louis and watch the
Yankees play the Browns There Is q
bare chance they will get some ideas
from the Yanks.
The Griffs dropped No. 10 in row
yesterday in the Sox opener by ito
score in 10 innings, but that isn't the
story. Another defeat, more or less,
means little. What that setback yester-
day meant, however was that there
still is hope for Wes Ferrell.
Wes pitched one OF his best games
Of the year. He outpitched Thornton
Lee, who won the game. but his team
mates were not as good as the White
Sox. And coming after a series OF dis
NAL failures, Wes' performance was
we'll received.

the situation. Recently, when Engel
negotiated the purchase of an option
on the Chattanooga club, he was
asked by newspaper man II he
thought he could swing his stock

team is his ambition.
What do you think I've been doing
in those short Pullman berths be-
tween Charlotte and Chattanooga all
Summer asked Mr.. Engel.
That was sufficient. Il was SUE
pected all along by Bucky Harris
that new faces were not coming TO
the Washington club. Now Engel has
confessed
And now Mr.. Griffith is finding It
increasingly difficult to keep step with
the bigmoney boys. In the last few
years only two recruits of anv value
at all have made good in Washington.
The first was Cecil Travis and the
second was Buddy Lewis. And Lewis
had to beg for chance at Chatta-
nooga.
The development Of only two players
does not argue strongly for Chatta-
nooga as a farm No wonder Mr..
G. is willing to sell. What he ap-
parently needs is two or three alert
scouts in the minors, picking up fell
lows like Fette, Stratton, Brack and
Poaf1enberger, and bea ting the big
dough guys to the punch.

Wes Has New "Wind-Up."

YVES tossed aside that hesitating
windup he formerly used. He
pitched yesterday with the barest sug-
gestion Of any wind-up at all. If you
can recall George Caster Of the AS. it
was something like the style OF that
right-hander. And. whether or not
this had anything to do with Wes'
success, he looked great.
Wes and Lee fought for four in
nings and neither side scored. Then
in the Sox fifth Stone dropped a ball
that put two runners on base with
one out, instead of making it two out
and man on first. Thusly inspired
Chicago pushed across two runs.

Fischer Sold to Orioles,

As THE Grif1s prepared to head
toward St. Louis tonight, Carl
Fischer was ready to take a train to
Baltimore. The left-hander was sold
to the Orioles yesterday after failing
again to make the grade in the big
leagues.
Harris had high hopes for Fischer
when he claimed him on waivers from
Cleveland during the last Western
trip, but Carl, after a good start, was
OF no help. He is the second Nat in
a week to be cut loose. At the start
OF this trip Jess Hill was sold to the
Athletics.
One by one, 1t seems, President
Clark Griffith and Harris are cutting

a S FAR as 1887 is concerned. the
Boston Bees loom as the best poor
mans entry" A lot of people thought
that Washington stood an outside
chance in the American League. but
the Grlffs fell apart. Meanwhile, the
Bees management secured the minor
leagues and came up with probably the
best pitching staff in the National
League. The Bees are running fifth
and buzzing around the first division.
That is the only way clubs such as
Washington, Boston's Bees, st. Louis
Browns and the Athletics can COM

that Grifhth's scouting system has gone
from bad to worse in recent years has
