Peterson, 43, Round Prairis farmer, Monday was taken to Stillwater penitentiary to serve a term not to exceed one year. Because he had no previous crime record, Judge John A. Roeser, St. Cloud, sentenced Peterson to serve the minimum term permitted in the. ex- tortion laws. A letter demanding $1,000 was re- ceived by Dr. G, R. Christie, Long Prairie physician, who ‘had treated members of Peterson's family. -It threatened injury to the physician nd promised his residence “would be own up” if he did not deposit the money in a jar a mile south of Prairie. Dr. Christie notified Sheriff 8. H. Adams, of Tadd county. A_ strict ‘watch was kept over where the jar was to be deposited but no one called for the money. A second letter then was sent to Dr. Christie in which the writer said, “We will give you one more chance.” While deputies kept watch, a team of horses and a wagon approached and the driver, Peterson, was arrested.

POWER OF LANDIS UPHELD BY JUDGE ‘court Decides in Favor of Base- i ball Czar in Famous Ben- nett Case Chicago, April 21.—(4)—Kenesaw M. Landis’ power over organized baseball was upheld Tuesday by Fed- eral Judge Walter Lindley, who dis- missed the suit for injunction filed hy the Milwaukee club of the Amer- ican Association in the celebrated Bennett case. The suit for injunction, which was sought ¢o restrain the: commissioner of baseball from interfering further with the baseball contracts of Ben- nett, an outfielder, was dismissed, Judge Lindley said, for want of equity. ‘The decision, rendered several months after the court arguments, was regarded as a great triumph for Commissioner Landis: and his claim to absohite dictatorship over the ranks of organized baseball. The suit was the first test of his powers. Fred Bennett, an outfielder, was sold by Tulsa of the Western League to the St. Louis club of the Ainerican League in 1928 only to be returned to Tulsa first on option and then on outright release. during. the samc year. In the same year, at tne end jof the Western League’ seasou, Ben- nett was sold by Tulsa to Milwaukee. He didn’t report to the Muwaukee club so his contract was sold by Mil- waukee to the Wichita Falls club of the Texas League with which team he playedthroughout-the 1929 season. In September, 1929, Bennett was sold to, St. Louis. He went to the -St. Louis training camp but on April 7, 1930, St. Louis released him on 0} tion again to Milwaukee. At this juncture, Commissioner _ Landis stepped in and the dispute began. Commissioner Landis ruled that Bennett had been kept in control of the St. Lous Browns “farm system” major-minor league player agreement and that the St. Louis club either would have to waive him to the other | major leagues or sell him outright to a club not connected with the St. Louis “farm system.” St. Louis fused, sending him to Milwaukee, a club in which it holds an interest, and Commissioner Landis declared Ben- nett a free agent to play bascbail with any club he pleased. The suit for in- junction followed. Four More Plead Guilty of Fraud St. Paul, April 21.—(#)—Four more defendants pleaded guilty Tuesday in federal court to charges of using the mails to defraud in connection with sale of stock of the Diamond Motor Parts company which prosecy- tors claim cost northwest investors about $1,500,000. 3 The company at St. Cloud, Minn., went into receivership in 1929. Guilty pleas were entered by B. W. Gumport and A. J. Sugar, Chicago; Albert Pollak, Peoria, Ill, and C. A. Widl- ing, Salt Lake City. They will be sentenced later in the day. Twenty-nine were indicted by a federal grand jury last year and 13 have pleaded guilty. Ten are fugi- tives, one is ill and will be tried lat- er, and two of those indicted died r.
