Disposition of the Springfield opportunity leaves but two problems to be worked out ami one of them is very near solution as the Hamilton men aie moving along merrily with their plan. to finance a club there. Richmond jut now holds a franchise in the Indiana-Ohio league, but it is probable that this berth will be dropped and a place taken in the Ohio State as soon as the matter of protection is understood. It develops that the Indiana-Ohio magnates are united in a desire for protection. One of the clubs has MagBert, an outfielder owned by Pittsburs, lined up and htands to lose him if the league is taken under the wing of organized baseball. There are some other cases of a bimilar nature. President Quinn intimates that the j next meeting of the club owners will take place here Monday. Columbus State Journal. Manager Hunt of the local baseball team, has signed Ed Kraft of Indianapolis, to play second base. Kraft was procured on the recommendation of Short Stop Stewart. His contract along with that of Catcher Hardin, has been received at club headquarters. Van Wert Bulletin. Base ball magnates are busy now sending out. contracts. Players are busy signing them and sending the documents back. Jinimie Kane, a candidate for first base on the Pirate team, says: "If I ever get on the Pittsburg team, they never will get. mo off of It." That's the proper spirit, lad.

INTO OHIO LEAGUE In Conversation With Manager Jessup He Threatens to Place Second Team in Richmond the Coming Season. JESSUP GIVES HIM THE MERRY "HA-HA." Probable That Local Manager Will Attend the Ohio State League Meeting to Be Held In Columbus Next Tuesday. As was predicted in the Palladium the Ohio State league intends to make :i hard fight lor Richmond. Today President Quirm of the Ohio State league telephoned to Manager Jessup and asked him what league this city would , be included in the coming season. ! Jessup promptly stated "The IndianaOhio league.'' This made Quinn somewhat huffy and he asked if Richmond intended to secure national protection if it entered the I. O. league. He was informed that such was the plan. Quinn then stated that Richmond could not play under protection unless it went into the O. S. league. Jessup replied that the O. S. league had only been given thirty days protection for this city and that at the expiration of that time he would apply for and no doubt receive protection for Richmond in the I.-O. league. To this statement Quinn gave the merry laugh. Jessup had final laugh a minute later. It came when Quinn stated that unless the Richmond Amuseme company accepted a francle in the Ohio State league the league intended to place a team here,-' "A Stubenville. O.. man is very anxious to back a club in Richmond and we -wjU award him a franchise unless yoti people drop out of the I.-O. circuit ..nd come over lo us," threatened Quinn. When Jessup had succeeded In overcoming his mirth at this statement he replied, "Send your Steubenville man over. The more the merrier." Quinn. after realizing what a joke he had perpetrated, dropped his bluffing tactics and urged Jessup to attend the O. S. league meeting at Columbus next Tuesday. Jessup replied that he might be there. The local manager, during his conversation, took pains to inform Quirm that this city could not nor would not stand for an $l,soo a month salary limit. UCKED THE TIGER IN CAMBRIDGE CITY Dan Crawford Was the Unlucky Man and His Wife Files Charges. THE SAME OLD STORY. CRAWFORD LOST AND ATTEMPTED TO WIN BACK, BUT DAME FORTUNE WAS UNKIND AND HE SUSTAINED FURTHER LOSSES. James McClelland and Sim Crockett, two Cambridge City men, were placed under arrest yesterday afternoon, two charges of gambling being registered against each. McClelland and Crockett were arrested on a complaint filed before Justice Pritchard by Mrs. Dan Crawford of

Bcntonville. who said that her husband , unsound mental condition of her brothhad been "bucking the tiger" at the : ers, Josiah Copley and Henry W. CopMcClelland saloon and that he had iev. and stated that her husband's sis-

been relieved of 7.". The first time Crawford visited the McClelland place he quit a heavy loser. To recuperate his losses Crawford returned to the saloon and again held unlucky poker hands. His total losses amounted, it is stated, to about $75.

CRIMINALS SPARED

FROM EXPOSURE He Told Dr. Charles Wagoner He Wished He Would Die And Then His Trial Would Be Brought to an End. EXPERT WITNESS SAID HE THOUGHT THAW CRAZY. Saw Him on Train and Defendant Muttered Meaningless Sentences and Took Dose of Morphine. New York. Jan. ''. Dr. Charles Bailey of Albany, N. Y.. was the first witness in the Thaw trial today. He testified that he saw Thaw on the train in April of !!,. He acted strangely and he thought him crazy, He uttered meaningless sentences ami the doctor gave him morphine. Dr. ("has. Wagner, of the Binghampton asylum for insane, said he visited Thaw in the Tombs. The prisoner acted in superior manner and said he had tried to send White to jail but that "Providence had taken the matter in its own hands." The witness described other visits he had made to Thaw in the Tombs. The prisoner said he was afraid he would get pneumonia and die and then h.s trial would be stopped and rich criminals concerned in the ruining of girls would be spared an exposure. Mrs. Bello Moorehouse Lawrence of California, Harry Thaw's kindergarten teacher, told of the peculiarities of her pnrn, tow on trial for the murder of Stanford White, yesterday afternoon. "Harry was a delicate child," she said, "with a large head. He was always brooding; he would stand with his mouth wide open and his eyes were blank and peculiar. When he came to me he was 5 years and 11 months old, but his speech was unintelligible. After three weeks I found he had a language of his own. I had to give him private lessons." Dr. Charles Wagner, superintendent of the state hospital for the insane at Binghampton, N. Y., one of the alienists for the defense who testified last year, was then called to the stand. Alienist on Stand. Dr. Wagner testified about the several visits he and Dr. Dritton D. Kvans paid to Thaw in the Tombs after the homicide and their physical examination of him. The testimony closely followed that of last year. Mr. Littleton said Dr. Wagner had been called out of turn in order to occupy the last half hour of the session. When adjournment was taken until tomorrow. Justice Dowiiug granted permission that the witness be withdrawn for examination later in the case. Thaw's Mother on Stand. Mrs. William Thaw, still unable to walk unassisted because of her recent illness, was not long upon the stand. Mrs. Thaw told of waking up one night, shortly before Harry's birth, and finding that her eldest child, an infant, was dead in bed. The nervous shock was so severe, she said that for more than seven months she scarcely slept at all. As an infant Harry Thaw suffered the most remarkable sleeplessness she had ever known in a child. He was nervous, and instead of sleeping at night, would insist upon being propped up to a sitting position in bed, his eyes having a wide-awake expression. The mother went into the deails of (he defendant's early life, telling of his various ills and never ending attacks' of nervousness. The first teacher he ever had was Miss Bell Moorehouse Lawrence, when he was 6 years of age. Mrs. Thaw then told of the various schools the boy had attended from time to time. Mrs. Thaw also testified as to the ; ter. Mrs. Hirsch. was an epileptic. District Attorney Jerome waived cross examination of Mrs. Thaw under agreement of the defense to admit into evidence the affidavit the mother made last year before the lunacy commisj sj0n. which was inquiring into her 1 son's condition of mind, j ir. Jerome began to read the affidaj Vit to the jury as Mrs. Thaw, still j j showing the effect of her recent illness, j was assisted from the stand. In the document Mrs. Thaw declared that in J the direct line of descent for four gen rations there was no epilepsy or in sanity in the family of the defendant. As to the epilepsy of Mrs. Hirsch. the affiant stated that her children were entirely free from any taint of the dis ease, showing clearly tftat Mrs. i Hirsch's attack was due to scarlet fcver in infancy and not from inheritance. j "The defendant's grandparents on both side?." continued the affidavit, "were universally respected for their we-l-balaneed ojinlitb-s of Lead and heart." Had a Brilliant Mind. As to her broth- r Josiah, Mrs. Thaw declared in th affirmative that the boy had a brilliant mind and was an assiduous student. His commencement day oration of Amherst was eo splendid an effort the judges decided j unwisely not to place a time limit up on him. Tho result was an attack of brain fever, follow ed bv three davs of

Young Copley was a prisoner both in Libby and Audersonville and was discharged a living Kkeleton, but in no wise mentally affected, although men about him in Andersonvillo daily were going mad. Henry Copley's infirmity, according to the affidavit, was duo to fright when a boy. These were the two solitary cases in the family, the other instances of insanity mentioned at the former trial having no connection with Harry Thaw. Mrs. Thaw declared in tho affirmative that she was glad to set at rest many cruel insinuations she had had to bear as the result of published reports of insanity in the Thaw blood. "There is no family secret to be guarded and no family skeleton to be bared," she concluded. Mr. Jerome laid careful emphasis on the more positive points in the paper. As Mrs. Thaw was leaving the criminal court building after finishing her testimony she was served with papers in the suit brought by Dr. Allen MeLane Hamilton lor $!,000 for professional services. Dr. Hamilton received $1,000 after he had been employed and dismissed by the first firm of lawyers employed in behalf of Thaw. Mrs. Thaw accepted the papers without a word.
