PROBE CHARGES OF SLUSH FUND (Continued From Page One) ed drive across the country. La-Pollette backed up his charges by exhibiting a letter circulated by "Joe" Grundy, one of the politico-industrial leaders in Pennsylvania and chairman of the ways and means committee of the Republican national committee, appealing for funds in Pennsylvania "to be used elsewhere." The sum mentioned as Pennsylvania's quota was $600,000. The chairman of the senate committee that will have to probe La-Pollette's charges is Sen. Wm. E. Borah of Idaho. Borah opened his own campaign for re-election in Idaho last night with an address in which he conspicuously failed to mention Pres. Coolidge by name, declared the Republican party to be on the defensive and expressed his heartfelt thanks to the La-Pollette-Wheeler managers for endorsing his senatorial candidacy. By failing to mention Coolidge and by faintly praising the progressives, Borah virtually served notice on the G. O. P. managers that Coolidge and La-Pollette can fight it out in the all-important states west of the Mississippi and they need not expect any help from him. On the committee with Borah are Senators who by no stretch of imagination can be said to sympathize with the Butler-Grundy management of the Republican campaign, nor with the Coolidge candidacy. With Borah as chairman the committee consists of Jones, Rep. of Washington; Shipateh, Parmar-Labor, of Minnesota; Caraway, Dem., of Ark., and Bayard, Dem., of Delaware. Jones votes as often with the insurgents of the senate as he does with the "old guard," Shipstead is openly for La-Pollette; Caraway has been one of the administration's harshest critics; and Hay- With Borah as chairman the committee consists of Jones, Rep., of Washington; Shipstead, Parmer-Labor, of Minnesota; Caraway, Dem., of Ark., and Bayard, Dem., of Delaware. Jones votes as often with the insurgents of the senate as he does with the "old guard." Shipstead is openly for LaFollette; Caraway has been one of the administration's harshest critics; and Bayard is a democrat from a state wherein there is a hotly contested nomination election this November. The resolution which created this committee was sponsored and put thru by Sen. LaFollette himself in the closing days of the last congress. The men named by Sen. LaFollette as the engineers of this G. O. P. financial drive are men whose names are bywords in the fields of industry and finance—E. T. Stotesbury, head of the Great Philadelphia banking house and partner of J. P. Morgan; W. T. Mellon, brother of the secretary of the treasury; Jos. F. Grundy, head of the Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Ass'n.; S. D. Warriner, head of the Anthacite Coal Operators; Samuel M. Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive Work, and Wm. M. Butler, chairman of the Republican National Committee and a large mill owner of Massachusetts. All of these he asked the senate committee to call as witnesses. LaFollette pointed out that headquarters for the distribution of these funds will be established in Denver with the president's secretary, C. Bascom Slemp in charge. Denver is the geographical center of much Republican discontent. A doubtful state in itself, Colorado is almost equidistant between Nebraska and Iowa on the east and California on the west, all of which states are considered vital to Republican success in November and to the north and south of Denver lie other disaffected Republican areas—Oklahoma, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Nevada and Utah. Borah is the only member of the investigating committee who is a candidate for re-election and consequently little difficulty is expected in getting it together, once Borah issues the call. The attitude of Sen. Borah toward the Coolidge-Dawes ficket was distinctly disconcerting to Republican leaders here today. The Idaho senator turned down the vice presidency at Cleveland, refusing to attend the convention, and since June has maintained an eminous silence. Republican managers had been hoping that in his initial speech in Idaho Falls, he would indorse Coolidge, but Borah did no such thing.

RAIN ENDS PERIOD OF FOREST FIRE SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8—inite end of the forest fire in No. Calif., for the present was announced today by the S. district forester's office, result of the recent rains. All restricted national forests in the Sierra mountains northern coast range have opened to public use with the ception of Santislaus National Forest, where hoof and muckquarantine regulations are in feet. So Calif., was still dry, if said, altho the light showers have dampened the forests simply to further reduce the hazard. In all only four national areas are still closed to the illic three of them being in southern part of the state are the Cleveland, Angeles Santa Barbara National Forest "Everything looks excellent" said the announcement. Rain has put out every fire in north and dampened the source that we may confidently ect the state fire hazard to be a part of the past for this year."

Jennings Bryan and returns in a moment as the late John L. Sullivan, the Washington Senators today had become fortune's favorite, where yesterday they were fortune's fathead. They had Walter Johnson poised for another sortie against the Giants in the fifth game of the world series and Broadway odds were 6 to 5 that Washington would and could step out to the place for the first time since the series opened. A victory today will give them the edge at three games to two. Hence the John L. Sullivan aspect. But it was not thus 24 hours ago when the Senators were one down and four to play, with not the slightest indication that Mogridge would pitch winning ball or that Goslin would go on a hitting rampage. The Wm. Jennings Bryan semblance was unmistakeable at that time. It had ever been maintained that John L. Sullivan had the punch. That being the case, the quick change expert must think up a new character for them, pronto. John McGraw is almost utterly devoid of pitchers and rain would be a great boon. It looked for a time this morning as tho McGraw would be favored in this respect. It rained all night and part of the morning, but at 8 o'clock a pale sun peeped thru the clouds. The forecast called for cloudy and unsettled weather. John hoped the unsettled part of the program might be greatly exaggerated; enough so, as it were, to make the Johnstown flood look like a novice. His star left hander, Nehf, may not be able to face Johnson owing to a bruised pitching hand. McGraw calling in McQuillan to missioner Landis shut them my face when I tried to him in Washington and wants further information me he will have to ask me Dreyfus, owner of the burgh Pirates, said today formed of New York di- stating that baseball's his missford would give him a Johnson, president of the can league, another head any charges they might make in connection with a York Giant players' scandal. The Pirates' owner was clined to talk of the sumption he received when landed in his indignation that his should be so easily ignores. Dreyfuss said he had nened all alliance with Ban Johnson "or anyone else" to showdown on the Giants? If the fat man knows side his bread is buttered eat dry toast. A Class Ad is best little su NINES GRAFT IN PACIFIC LEAGUE OS ANGELES, Oct. 8. — In a moment branding Ban Johnson, president of the American League, trouble maker attempting to suspicion every place but his own league," Harry A. Wilkins, president of the Pacific League today flatly denied args that graft was rampant in the western ball players. Johnson's charge that there has crooked baseball in the Pacific-League season is nothing which should be backed against." Williams said. His charge is an insult to evan man who wears a uniform in circuit and his assertions are believable. No man especially in a prominent position in game, should make such statements. He should those guilty, if here are, and not cast suspicion on game generally." Regarding his charge that prom- eastern gamblers are operat- on the coast, it might interest to know that "Nick the k'k left Los Angeles for Chi- some weeks ago, where John- offices are located. If this holder is a source of worry to body this information might something for Johnson to worry for some time, Johnson seems have been bent on destroying world series, not only this but for years to come. He is at the National League, at Commissioner Landis and at the League. His action in cast- a cloud of suspicion every day but in his own league may not upon the Americans, altho severely hope not. All I have to ask of Johnson is the either prove his statements learning the Coast League or from making them." SPORTS DONE by BROWN Stanley Harris, Washington manager, is not the first member of his family to like baseball—or play it. The "baby manager's" dad, Thomas Harris, was a pitcher in his young days—until an accident ended what might have been more or less of a brilliant career. The elder Harris pitched for a team in Pittsburgh back in '66. Hughie Jennings was his battery mate. Harris sustained a broken elbow while pitching a curve ball one day and his baseball days ended then. Stanley Harris' brother, Merle, might also be in baseball today but for an accident. He was playing in the Southern league a few years ago when he broke his ankle. The injury handicapped him in running and fielding and he quit the game. Does Emil Meusel, Giant outfielder, need a change of scenery ever so often to make him play his best baseball? The question is a natural one in view of the conditions under which he went to New York from Philadelphia, and will indicate at least that McGraw feels Meusel has given the Giants his beat. And Emil's playing next year will prove or disprove the theory that he needs a change of pastures to be at his best. Big Bill Tilden may forsake the tennis court to become "a actor," according to word from New York. "Another good man gone wrong," the sport world will sing. Bill hasn't gone yet, however. Somehow or other it's hard to imagine the long and lanky teniser learning to walk with mining stride to portray "energy," etc., and getting his eye brows plucked so he makes up well. One consolation, though. Bill You haven't a crooked nose to be fixed by the grafting of a slice of cauliflower ear. The remarkable golfing exhibition given by Miss Glenna Collett in the qualifying round of the national women's golf championship journey must stamp her as one of NEW YORK, Oct. 8.—Light which was falling at dawn, opened shortly before 8 o'clock morning, but fair weather for fifth game of the Giants-Seneca world series here this afternoon was not likely, according to weather bureau. The forecast was unsettled. The was cloudy. MIN ENDS PERIL OF FOREST FIRES MAN FRANISCO, Oct. 8.—Defend end of the forest fire peril so Calif. for the present year announced today by the U. district forester's office, as a hit of the recent rains. All restricted national forests in Sierra mountains and western coast range have been used to public use with the extension of Santislaus National Forest, where hoof and mouth sanitation regulations are in effect. Calif. was still dry, it was altho the light showers there dampened the forests sufficiently to further reduce the fire risk. All only four national forests are still closed to the pubs three of them being in the northern part of the state. They are the Cleveland, Angeles and a Barbara National Forests. Everythin looks excellent." The announcement. "The has put out every fire in the hush and dampened the south so we may confidently expect estate fire hazard to be a thing one past for this year." Do do over a chair or table in a heavy three is a handy preparation for paints and varnishes in one location. It can be chosen in sew-finishes—mahogany being a one. Stanley Harris' brother, Merle, might also be in baseball today but for an accident. He was playing in the Southern league a few years ago when he broke his ankle. The injury handicapped him in running and fielding and he quit the game. Does Emil Meusel, Giant outfielder, need a change of scenery ever so often to make him play his best baseball? The question is a natural one in view of the conditions under which he went to New York from Philadelphia and the rumor now flying about that he may be traded. Three years ago McGraw purchased "Irish" from the Phils for something like $40,000. Meusel had been playing indifferent baseball with the lowly Quaker team. At the time the deal was made the accusation was hurled by Phillyites that Meusel had been approached on the deal before it was made and bad helped the deal along by showing lack of interest in his work in Quakertown. This probably were more talk. The facts are, though, that Meusel played bang-up ball for the Giants from the time he joined until the past season. Then his batting fell off noticeably. His fielding, too, was not up to par. McGraw finally yanked Emil from the lineup. Meusel later became ill and there was some talk that his poor playing in preceding weeks had been occasioned by this approaching illness. That might have been true. Meusel's failure to play up to his 1923 speed helped make the Giants' road through the 1924 campaign a hard one, regardless of whatever the cause of it was. Meusel is not old in years or service. He should have several big years still in his system. Which has caused many close adherents of the Giants and followers of the National league players to dope it out that Meusel is simply tired of his New York home and ready to move on again. This belief is discounted by the fact that Emil has collected his slice of a world's series melon every season since joining the team, and knows that his chances of earning this extra gravy would not be as good with any other club in the league. Should a deal be made during the winter involving Meusel it Bill hasn't gone yet, however. Somehow or other it's hard to imagine the long and lanky teniser learning to walk with mining stride to portray "energy," etc., and getting his eye brows plucked so he makes up well. One consolation, though. Bill You haven't a crooked nose to be fixed by the grafting of a slice of cauliflower ear. The remarkable golfing exhibition given by Miss Glennna Collett in the qualifying round of the national women's golf championship journey must stamp her as one of the greatest women golfers of the world. When she eired the Rhode Island country club course in 79 she did more than merely circle the course under 80 for the first time in the history of the national tourney. She demonstrated that the time is coming closer when women will really challenge the supremacy of the men in golf. The "die hards" among the men have scoffed at the idea ever since the women "invaded" the links in any numbers. Scores speak louder than words. Miss Collett turned in a card of 79. That speaks clearly, in my opinion. The remarkable pitching of Dazzy Vance and his frank assertion that Catcher Hanke De Berry has played an important port in his success rises the query as to whether or not the big league moguls frequently "cut off their power" when they purchase from minors a pitching prospect bbbing his catcher, too. Was catching Vance in the southern association when the Dazzling one was pitching spectacular ball for New Orleans. Uncle Robinson of the Dodgers reasoned that De Berry might be more than a catching glove and got New Orleans to release their grip on him at the same time Vance was purchased. As a result of this move Vance found himself pitching to his same old mate when he essayed to prove his worth in the big show. This fact, more than anything else, helped him keep his nerve up when things were breaking badly. De Berry knew Vance had the stuff and made no bones about telling not only Vance but his knockers. A Class Ad is best little salesman. DREYFUSS PEEVED AT JUDGE LANDIS PITTSBURGH, Oct. 8.—"Comissioner Landis shut the door in my face when I tried to talk to him in Washington and if he grants further information from me he will have to ask it." Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pittsburgh Pirates, said today when informed of New York dispatches stating that baseball's high commission would give him and Ban Johnson, president of the American league, another hearing on any charges they might have to make in connection with the New York Giant players' scandal. The Pirate's owner was not inclined to talk of the summary reaction he received when he visited Landis, but plainly showed his indignation that his charges should be so easily ignored. Dreyfuss said he had not planned any alliance with Ban Johnson "or anyone else" to force a showdown on the Giants' scandal. If the fat man knows which side his bread is buttered on he'll eat dry toast. A Class Ad is best little salesman. MABEE READY TO STAGE MATCHES Do Angheim wrestling fans want to see some fast matches? If Roy Mabee, old-time wrestler and good sport generally, is given encouragement, he is ready to assume the role of promoter and stage some real mat goes. He has received an offer from Pete Sauer to appear under his tutelage with any wrestler in the world, bar none. Mabee considers Sauer the bear wrestler of his age in the country with prospects of developing into a world champion. The Nebraskan is only 24, but strong, clever and fast as lightning. He strips 197 and is a clean athlete in every way. With a year or two more and added weight, he will make it mightily interesting for "Strangler" Lewis, world's heavyweight champion, in Mabee's opinion. Mabee would probably stage his wrestling shows, should he decide to put them on, at the Fairyland theatre. He has no particular opponent in mind for Sauer, although he would like to see him.
