UNIED THEATRE TONIGHT TWO MORE BIG NIGHTS! THE TALK OF ANAHEIM! A Mighty Drama of the U.S. "California in49" How the West Was Won "A Night in the Padeo" PROLOGUE Singing and Dancing PRICES: 10c, 20c, 30c GLENN TYRON In a Scream Comedy "The GOOFIE AGE" GIVES REASONS FOR INDIAN'S DEFEAT LAKELAND, Fla., March 16—There's nobody on this ball club good enough to replace me. In these not at all uncertain times did Tris Speaker declare himself today on rumored possibility that he is preparing for a gradual self-elimination from the line-up of the Cleveland Indians. He believes he has no one but himself to blame for his indifferent work of 1924, and intimately rather strongly that the same thing held true for the Indians, almost in toto. This is another year, of course but Speaker cannot forget what might have been. "The disability of Uhle and Edwards cost us about at least 20 ball games" he told the writer. "These would have made us finish one, two three. Edwards twisted his knee after winning five games and was useless un- TENSE DRAMA OF EARLY DAYS AT THE UNITED The early days of California, in 1747-48-49, were probably more full of vivid events than any other period in the history of the United States. The discovery of gold, the revolution against Mexican rule, resulting in a free California for 16 days, the annexation by the United States represented by General John C. Fremont, the mad rush of the fevered gold-seekers across the continent, the orgy of crime culminating in the organization of the "Vigilantes," are some of the thrilling events which have been woven with the thread of romance by the Arrow Pictures Corporation into a strikingly dramatic and instructive motion picture entitled "California in 49." The fidelity and care with which this production has been made is indicated by the fact that the aid of the California Historical Society was enlisted so that all essential details would be as nearly correct as was humanly possible. COL. DENNISTOUN ON STAND TODAY LONDON, March 16—Col. Iain Dennistoun took witness stand today and enlightened already brisk session with further details of his wife's alleged intimacy with other men. His testimony was in rebuttal to hat of Mrs. Dorothy Dennistoun, who said that before she divorced him, she was called on for "love sacrifices" in his behalf. Colonel Dennistoun, testifying of his former wife's relations with Oscar Senhouse, one of many men mentioned by Dennistoun's counsel, said that while he was captain of grenadier guards he came off duty one day and found his bed had been slept fit. He asked his wife who had occupied it and she told him Oscar Senhouse. She said Senhouse had lost his key and been unable to get home, so she had taken him to her flat. At that time, colonel continued he thought nothing of Senhouse's presence in the flat but he later heard brother officers linking his wife's names with Senhouse and charged her with intimacy with him. She admitted she was very fond of Senhouse and had been intimate with him. Dennistoun said. The witness explained that the portion of his letter to his wife in 1920 reading "you loved someone else within a few months of our marriage" referred to the Senhouse incident. "I didn't take a strong line on action in the matter because my marriage was against my father," will but if I had chosen I could have divorced my wife in 1911, he said. "There wasn't any use of taking any attitude," he continued. "She was a much more down-inant figure than I was, all the way thru. There was nothing for me to do. She gave me to understand that she required more than one man's love." Dennistoun said that he and his wife remained on merely friendly The disability of Uhle and Edwards cost us about at least 20 ball games" he told the writer. "These would have made us finish one, two three. Edwards twisted his knee after winning five games and was useless until September. Uhle just didn't round into condition. He won 26 games in 1923 and exactly eight last year. There was nothing the matter with his arm and never has been. He just couldn't last the full nine innings. Both men now are well-bodied and ambitious to a fault." On his own case, Speaker says nothing and says it eloquently. It has been noted however, that he has eliminated the golf and hunting excursions that claimed his attention off the field in other years and not only is working for self-advancement but that of others, as a good manager should. In addition to Uhle and Edwards those favored as regular pitchers are Sherry Smith, declared by Speaker to have been the best in the league last year; Joe Shaunte, Byron Spence, another moment of the Coveleski deal; and aged Benny Karr from Atlanta, and a few more to be selected from Dutch Levison and I. W. Miller from Terre Haute; Watson Clark from Peoria; Luther Roy from Chattanooga and Monroe Mitchell from Memphis. The latter, however, has contributed to get himself a sore arm, and probably will be sent hence at an early date. BIG VAUDEVILLE AT UNITED THEATRE Harry Pfau's Dog and Pony Circus come to the United theatre on Wednesday and Thursday nights of this week, direct from a tour of the United States on the Pantages theatre time.

The first of next week this team will play one of league teams. L A MAN NOW NO CAL CHAMPION "I didn't take a strong line on action in the matter because my marriage was against my father will but if I had chosen I could have divorced my wife in 1911," he said. "There wasn't any use of taking any attitude," he continued. "She was a much more dominant figure than I was, all the way thru. There was nothing for me to do. She gave me to understand that she required more than one man's love." Dennistoun said that he and his wife remained on merely friendly terms for several months after their marriage. While he and his wife and Senhouse were staying with Dennistoun's uncle in Ballingallo Scotland, in 1911, a servant told him he had found Mrs. Dennistoun in bed with Senhouse. "Mrs. Dennistoun denied it," he testified, "and said he had only been sitting on the bed. She later admitted to me that she had been on a motor trip thru Wales with Senhouse. She was having difficulty in making up her mind whether she would come to Jamaica with me or go to Australia with Senhouse. Finally she thought she'd better stay with me. "My wife always sold me every thing—where she been, what she did. Once she said she was going to make love to Senhouse if she wanted to." Mrs. Dennistoun erred for a hour on his shoulder when she learned that Senhouse had been killed in action in France he said Counsel for Dennistoun read a letter attributed to Dennistoun, referring to Evelyn Lady Miller "Till be civil to Evie for you sake." It read, "but don't ever ever ask me to meet her or to say with her She isn't worth it." Dennistoun testified that Evelyn Lady Miller was his wife's mother. He said she introduced them both to Sir John Cowans, from whom Dennistoun received the post to Jamaica. LONDON, March 16. Boudou confidences attributed to pretty Mrs. Dorothy Dennistoun brought the courtroom to rigid attention when the famous case was resumed today. They were contained in the testimony of Hann Parker, formerly lady's maid to the attractive divorcee, who is saying her husband for $6000 else she lent him. The mald testified that the night before the marriage of Co Dennistoun to Dowager Councillor Carnarvon Mrs. Dennistoun took her: "I am glad they are going to be married tomorrow. Now I can put on the sergeas." Mrs. Dennistoun had frequent said "I am only waiting for a certain date, Parker," the mald testified. These remarks of Mrs. Dennistoun were voluntary and not elicited.

They deemed him a gentleman and a scholar, went out of their earnest way to please him and lived happily ever after. This is not a bedtime story. It is story of poor but honest Philies, as outlined to writer. The story of an almost hopelessly inefficient ball club that fairly bristles with hope from Arthur Fletcher, clean-eared manager, right on down to Helne Sand. shortstop who didn't realize there was lot of kidding so around and insisted that bearing down was one of things that was being done these days. "I never saw anything like it," said Fletcher, referring to boy ambition, not prevalent type of bearing down. "That is, outside of college ball team. These fellows are simply working their heads off and chatter during workouts like ballyhoo man on midway at Coney Island." The Philis, in short, may be going nowhere in particular, but they decline to do it quietly. Sand, by way, in one of comparatively few 1924 relies who figures to hold job. Nelson "Chicken" Hawks, once Yankee, and later of Nashville, has replaced Holke at first base. Walter Kimmlek, ex-Red, has moved right into second base from Vernon Coast League club. A young man, C. B. Huber by name and gifted by nature, will play third. He is up with Phils from Beaumont and Fletcher says he will stay. Nothing personal behind this threat. Fletcher really likes young man. However, he is muc nore enamored of Kimmlek, who couldn't hit size of neckband with Reds. "He's smallest looking infielder I've seen in a long time," said Fletcher. "He seems to be able to throw."

The stock market lost its buoyancy to and as the result of the almost continuous selling pressure, stocks gradually but steadily settled down to lower price levels. Until well past the non-hour breaks were churned around with varied trends in prices and with little relation to developments in the industrial and money markets. Bearish traders were busy chasing some vigorous attacks in different sections of the market, in all of which they succeeded in unsealing prices, whether or not they were successful in pricing liquidation of long stocks. The bears avoided Amn. Can but were not so sparing of Baldwin, Car and Fdy, and other high yield stocks. Bullish pools in many of the specialty stocks, deserted their market favorites and some wide swaps were opened up in prices as prepared with Saturday's close. Renewal of pressure on Amn. Bolden sent he common stock down three points to 40% against week's high at 50, while the broke to 33. Market rumors are to the effect that the big text companies were finding conditions as bad as in 1924, which is characterized as the worst since the civil war. Baldwin Loco declined to 131 for a loss of four points while Elec. was down five; Caston Pipe, down five; Amn. Car and Fdy, down four; Savage Arms, down six; Amn. Loco. stx; U. S.
