DEMAND McCARTHY WITHDRAW UMPIRES SACRAMENTO, Sept. 20. — Demand that Wm. H. McCarthy, president of the Pacific Coast league, withdraw Umpires Byron and Ward from Sacramento for the remainder of the series between San Francisco and Sacramento, will probably be made by the baseball committee of the Sacramento chamber of commerce today as a result of the attack made on the umpires by Sacramento fans last night. The baseball committee went into special session this morning. Shortly before the committee convened, Joseph Stephens, local banker and head of the committee, declared that "Byron made the worst decision I ever saw at a baseball game." This decision lost Sacramento the game, he said. Chief of Police Bernard McShane detailed 20 men this morning to guard the umpires during today's game, and prevent a repetition of yesterday's riot. Umpires Ward and Byron were both struck by stones hurled by the fans as they left the baseball field last night. Catcher Yelle of the San Francisco club was hit over the eye with a rock and four policemen were knocked down by irate fans as they attempted to protect the umpires. DEMANDS OFFICERS PROTECT UMPIRES SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 20—President Wm. H. McCarthy of the Pacific Coast league, was emphatic in declaring today that no further games will be played in Sacramento this season, unless proper police protection is given the umpires assigned to games there. The Pennant Races The Giants have it in their power to clinch the pennant in the next few days. Today they begin in a series of three games with the Pirates, to be followed by two games with the Reds. If the Giants hold their own in these two series they will have annexed their third successive pennant. The Giants today are four games ahead of the Reds and six in front of the Pirates. Their last game with St. Louis was called off by rain yesterday and will not be played unless it is essential to the pennant fight. If the Giants win five of their remaining ten games, the Reds must win ten of their eleven games, and the Pirates all of their thirteen games to beat them. In this event, the Reds and Pirates would be tied for the pennant. The Yanks will try again today to clinch the pennant when they meet St. Louis.

McCarthy of the Pacific Coast league, was emphatic in declaring today that no further games will be played in Sacramento this season, unless proper police protection is given the umpires assigned to games there. Ho wired a protest to the Sacramento police against the attack on Umpires Byron and Ward, following the San Francisco-Sacramento game yesterday, in which rocks were hurled and fists wielded. Five San Francisco baseball players were slightly injured protecting the league arbiters. McCarthy did not take seriously the demand that the two umpires be transferred for the series, and declared his information indicated that a few "roughs" had started the trouble. He said the league umpires must be given police protection or the series will be transferred to San Francisco. FOR RESULTS—Try a Plain Dealer Want-ad.

SARGUM PROUTINGS By Sargum Sprout The Sprouts have been entertaining Kid Flu, and while we have not been enjoying ourselves, we have been very busy and out of mischief. The Flu keeps you at home and from meddling in other people's affairs. I would have been all right if I had not witnessed last Sunday's Anaheim-Shell Oil ball game. That game would have given most any one the flu. Imagine having the Ollers tied to the post, 9 to 1, and then let them get away and tie the count. The doctor claimed that I strained my vocal chord. It's a wonder it wasn't broken. But at that it was a durn good ball game. CHICAGO HIGH SCHOOL BEAUTY BEATEN UNCONSCIOUS IN BUILDING CORRIDOR Ethel Rawitch. Chicago police are baffled by the mysterious assault on Miss Ethel Rawitch, sixteen-year-old student, found beaten to unconsciousness in the corridor of John Marshal high school. With her skull fractured the girl is believed to have but a slight chance for recovery. MITCHELL LOOKS AFTER SEAL BEACH SEEK STORY OF MURDER FROM TWO-YEAR-OLD BABE (Continued from Page 1) The records revealed today that Mrs. Case was disarmed two years been enjoying ourselves, we have been very busy and out of mischief. The Flu keeps you at home and from meddling in other people's affairs. I would have been all right if I had not witnessed last Sunday's Anaheim-Shell Oil ball game. That game would have given most any one the flu. Imagine having the Ollers tied to the post, 9 to 1, and then let them get away and tie the count. The doctor claimed that I strained my vocal chord. It's a wonder it wasn't broken. But at that it was a durng good ball game. Every one on the Anaheim team was a hero at least once during the afternoon. It is worth a lot to see Arch Hawkins make a home run. It took ten strides to reach first, six to second, four between second and third and just two from third to home. At the rate Arch runs bases, he would be flying in half a mile and never would touch earth again. Art Ramage and Firpo are in the same class; the only difference is that Art uses a club and Firpo his fist. Carnes secured a couple of healthy blows and pulled a very flossy fielding stunt. All the Elks were brilliant in spots and not so good in others. We believe Anaheim will win yet if she don't weaken. Wanted to get down to see the new Athletic Club open its doors Tuesday evening, but had to do a little sparring with Kid Flu instead. The reports were that the club got off to a flying start, a full house, good card and everything! Several of the old timers made creditable showings on the first evening's entertainment. Another card is announced for next Tuesday evening. Sacramento and San Francisco are staging the real big series of the season at Sacramento this week. Interest is so keen and feeling so intense that a good sized riot took place after yesterday's game. A decision by Byron angered the fans to such an extent that the umpire was stoned on leaving the grounds. Several players and a policeman were slightly injured in the mix-up. President McCarthy threatens to remove the series to San Francisco if there are any more demonstrations. It was reported that a band of fans was being organized to escort Byron out of town last night. The Coast League umpires are having a lot of trouble this season. Sacramento has had trouble with Byron before and McCarthy was inviting trouble when he assigned Byron there during this crucial series. Sacramento's chance for the pennant depended on pulling the Seals down in their series. Each of the two games has gone to the Seals on technical decisions that seldom occur in baseball. Byron was most likely honest in his decision yesterday, and it was very unfortunate that such a MITCHELL LOOKS AFTER SEAL BEACH Communities which have no health officers of their own may arrange with Dr. W. Lekand Mitchell, county health officer, to do their work on contract. It was shown when Seal Beach agreed to pay Mitchell $10 per month for the work. The contract came before Supervisors who authorized the chairman and clerk to have it signed. The board decided of continue the report of the Harbor Commission until Sept. 25. The feature of the report is a recommendation that $1,000,000 be expended by bond issue to complete and equip Orange County harbor. The Citizens' Bank of Laguna Beach, which asked the board to return its check on the $12,000 school bond issue, may run across a snag, promote Santa Ana attorneys said today, because all the legal requirements had been complied with. At the resumption of the hearing on the petition for a sanitary district in Placentia, various prominent ranchers testified against the plan, including H. H. Hale, Gilbert Kraemer, Charles C. Wagner, W. C. Hefern, Ben Kraemer, Charles L. Hansen and John C. Tuffree. SWEETSER, MARSTON, OUIMET, GARDNER WIN THIRD ROUND FLOSSMOORE COUNTRY CLUB, Chicago, Sept. 20.-Jesse Sweetser, present champion, Max Marston, Francis Oulmet and Bob Gardner won their matches today in the third round of the amateur golf championship at the Flossmoore club. Tomorrow, in the semi-finals, Gardner and Sweetser will meet, and Oulmet will meet Marston. Two great matches were added to the history of this championship by today's play. Sweetser and Guilford furnished a large gallery with many thrills, but the present champion had the edge all the way on the Boston player, who was champion two years ago. Guilford managed to hang close to Sweetser most of the way, but the champion worked in a business-like way at all times. He was just nervous enough to be keen and looked like the winner from the start. Guilford did not play his best SEEK STORY OF MURDER FROM TWO-YEAR-OLD BABE (Continued from Page 1) The records revealed today that Mrs. Cass was divorced two years ago from Cass, who obtained custody of their four children. The fifth child was given to Mrs. Cass. The slain woman is also said to have been married since her divorce from Cass to Bert Williams, who is now said to be dead. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20.-Handcapped by 10 hours delay in discovery of the crime, police detectives today sought to solve what is believed to be another "hammer murder" following the finding of the nude, blood-covered body of Mrs. James W. Cass, 25, cabaret beauty, formerly of Buffalo, in her apartment in North Toluca-st. The constant crying of her two-year-old son Bobby found sitting on a pillow near the body, attracted neighbors. That the woman may have been beaten to death with a blunt instrument was believed established when the police found a hammer in the apartment. On the wash-stand in the room was also found blood-stains, which led the police to believe that after killing his victim, the slayer washed both the hammer and his hands carefully. No blood stains were found on the hammer. Among the dead woman's effects was a letter signed "mother". The return address on the envelope was "Mrs. L. R. Chamberlin, 276 Sumner-st., Buffalo, N.Y." The letter indicated that the mother had recently received a letter from her daughter in which she stated she would reon return to her parents. The letter also reprimanded the daughter for not writing more regularly. Indications that a terrific struggle before death was found in coves recklessly torn from the bed and pictures that had adorned the walls were strewn helter-skelter about the floor and the woman's body, found in a pool of blood. The police admitted that it was almost impossible to determine whether Mrs. Cass had been beaten to death or not, as the woman is thot have been dad about 10 hours before the tragedy was discovered. Mystery surrounding the slaying was deepened today when no one could be found who had heard sounds The Coast League umpires have a lot of trouble this season. Sacramento has had trouble with Byron before and McCarthy was inviting trouble when he assigned Byron there during this crucial series. Sacramento's chance for the pennant depended on pulling the Seals down in their series. Each of the two games has gone to the Seals on technical decisions that seldom occur in baseball. Byron was most likely honest in his decision yesterday, and it was very unfortunate that such a decision had to come just at this time. Speaking of umpires, the plate umpire of our last Sunday's game was a bum guesser. His redeeming feature was that he guessed them the same for both sides. He played no favorites, but kept both sides guessing on balls and strikes. His ruling on the fly ball that disappeared out of sight was correct. Manager Pete Hax told me Sunday that he was going to use Fay Lewis on first and Ramage at third in the Elks' championship game. Hax told others differently, according to reports. They have had Hawkins, McLain, Lewis and a half dozen others playing the torrid corner. Wonder who is right? DENTON, REISELT TIE IN FIRST PLACE KANSAS CITY, Sept. 20.—"Tiff" Denton, shooting Kansas City's cue in the second series of the playoff for the national 3-cushion billiard championship, moved into a tie for first place with Otto Reiselt of Philadelphia, by defeating the Pennsylvanian here last night, 60 to 55. Johnny Layton, present titleholder, scored his first victory when he defeated Robert Cannifax of New York, 60 to 50. Layton meets Reiselt, and Denton encounters Cannifax in the third series today. U.S. ENGINEER DIES IN GASOLINE BLAST WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.—L. L. Laurer, a government automotive engineer, was killed and at least ten other employees were injured, four seriously, when a large quantity of gasoline exploded at the U.S. bureau of standards this afternoon. Quimet will meet Marston. Two great matches were added to the history of this championship by today's play. Sweetser and Guilford furnished a large gallery with many thrills, but the present champion had the edge all the way on the Boston player, who was champion two years ago. Guilford managed to hang close to Sweetser most of the way, but the champion worked in a business-like way at all times. He was just nervous enough to be keen and looked like the winner from the start. Guilford did not play his best golf. Bobby Jones won the qualifying medal in the amateur championship today, beating Chick Evans by four strokes in the playoff. Jones was 73, Evans 76. CALIFORNIA HOTEL, FULLERTON F. B. Arscott; O. W.

While the operations of the postal inspectors have been shrouded in secrecy, it was unofficially stated today that they have interviewed scores of investigators and gathered sufficient evidence to indict dozens of oil operators who are said to have mulcted many investors out of many thousands of dollars.
