McGUGAN ADMITS $15,000 PAYMENT WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—Harold McGugan, attorney for Mrs. Anita Barnett, admitted before the house Indian affairs committee today that M. L. Mott of Tulsa, Okla., a former Creek Nation attorney, received payment from Mrs. Barnett for his "advice" in arranging the settlement of the $1,100,600 estate of Jackson Carr., aged Indian millionaire. McGugan declared that Mott gave him "advice and counsel" regarding the settlement and that when he found his advice helpful he told Mott "he would see that Mrs. Barnett would pay him a fee and pay him handomely." The attorney denied that he went to Mott because "the represented himself as a man who could get things done around the interior department." McGugan said the sum paid Mott by Mrs. Barnett was $15,000 after Chairman Sinnott declared he must tell the amount when questioned by Congressman Hastings. The witness declared he knew two or three friends in Oklahoma had refused to marry Mrs. Barnett to the Indian. Do you think it is appropriate to have a memorial on hotel stationery saying that on consummation of the transaction I agreed to pay him a certain sum of money? The "advice" he received, McGugan said, which he found so helpful, was Mott's suggestion that Mrs. Barnett should get as much money under the settlement as she would if Barnett were dead. "I got an additional $150,000 for my client as a result of the suggestion," said McGugan. NEGOTIATIONS MOVE ON NORMAL LINES PARIS, Jan. 10.—"We have reached no agreement.

"COZY" DOLAN HAS DAZED MEMORY CHICAGO, Jan. 10—A. J. "Cozy" Dolan, banished coach of the New York Giants baseball team, has a hazy memory, and three days following the alleged offering of $500 to J. H. Sand, shortstop of the Philadelphia National League team, to "ease up" could not recall that he had ever talked with anybody on the subject. This was shown by the verbatim report of the testimony taken in the hearing conducted by Judge K. M. Landis, commissioner of baseball, following reports just before the world series of 1924, that such an offer had been made. The report was given out today from Judge Landis' office. Judge Landia was not in his office when the transcript was given out and it was handed to news-papermen without comment. The testimony reveals no hint of fresh gandal and actually develops little that has not already become public thru rumor. It shows that, in the presence of James O'Connell, giant outfielder, also banished from the national pastime in connection with the affair and Sand, Dolan said in answer to questions that he could not remember O'Connell telling him that Sand had refused to listen to the alleged offer. "Do you remember whether you had any conversation relative to the offering of a sum of money?" Landis asked Dolan. "I cannot recall." Dolan answered. "This is Tuesday. This conversation which I am asking about between you and O'Connell, O'Connell says took place in the clubhouse at the Pablo Grounds last Saturday. That is three days. The conversation you say you do not remember, did you ask O'Connell if he knew Sand?" The commissioner questioned. "Did I ask him?" Dolan asked. "Did you talk to O'Connell about Sand last Saturday?" In reference to what? NEW YORK, Jan. 10—While the general excitement is at its height and the question of the hour is whether the gentleman in question eats fish for breakfast and keeps that schoolgirl complexion with shinola, it might be mentioned that Paavo Nurmi may be riding for a fall. He has allowed himself to be invigored into accepting invitations by the earloads, and somewhere along the general right of way, it is quite possible than an American crowd will watch him run second behind some worthy young man, present identity unknown. This stunning event may happen no later than a week or ten days from this moment. On Thursday night next, he will go to the post at Madison Square Garden against a plausible field in a 3000 meter run. The distance has been shortened from two miles at Nurmi's request, altho it is fact, not fancy, that he can run any distance from a quarter mile to ten faster than any man the world has known. It might appear from this that Nurmi sees something coming. Two days later he is to step out in a special mile and a quarter race at the Illinois A. C. games in Chicago. The distance was increased the extra two furlongs, also at Nurmi's request. He evidently has no intention of trying to repeat his Olympic program, in which he ran and won races at 1500, 3000, 5000 and 10000 meters, with heats, in the space of one week. The distances he will run at the two meets are not markedly dissimilar. The reason is not far to seek Nurmi has realized within the last 48 hours that he has bitten off a lumberjack's mouthful in agreeing to run a hard race here on Thursday night, climb aboard...
