INQUEST DEEPENS MYSTERY IN DEATH Lack of+ Powder Burns Raises Doubts About Suicide' of Real Estate Man’s Bride. By the Assoclated Press TULSA, Okla., September 21.—M tery surrounding the death of M Carrie May Boss, 27, bride of five months and formerly of Tujsa, who death” at Cheboygan, no nearer solution vesterday after a_ secret in- quest had been performed here. The inquest was made by order of the dead woman’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Cromwell. Authorities here have been puzzled as to the cause of her death. First reports from Cheboygan stated that Mrs. Boss had been killed in an auto- mobile accident. Later word stated that she had committed suicide while in a room alone. A bullet wound one- half inch over the woman's left ear supported the last report, but there were no powder burns on her head, examiners said. Other wounds found on the body were a deep cut over the right ear, a cut on the lower part of the face and bruises on the left arm. Mrs. Boss was married at Tampa, Fla., last April. Her husband, Louis C. Boss, is a wealthy real estate broker of Miami. Word was received from him yesterday that he would be unable to attend the funeral. STONE’S NEPHEW QUITS R. R.

BALL PARK NEAR-RIOT . PUTS STOP TO POLICE ENFORCEMENT OF RULES (Continued from First Page.) the police merely had wished to main- tain order. Reports that the policeman had fans began to “boo” he walked to the box, took the ball from the outstretch- ed hand of Guy, took the boy's arm and escorted him through the stands to the park office amid a swelling chorus of jeers. “Shall T take him to the lockup?” Policeman Dellinger is quoted as ask- ing Lieut. Bremmerman. “Naw, let him go,” the lieutenant, with a tivinkle in His eye, replied. Guy went, even though the score stood 5 to 5, with an extra inning in prospect. i Policeman Dellinger straightened his cap, took a firm grip on his baton and returned with some trepidation to his post. His fears of a repetition of the jeering were _well founded. In fact he greatly underestimated what really was going to happen. As the game ended in the tenth inning near- ly 5,000 men, with a generous sprin- kling of women, rushed onto_the fleld and followed ' Policeman _ Dellinger across the field to the Washington dugout. Some of the crowd got in front of him and on each side of him, and soon he was the lone objective of & milling mass of excited fans, who showered him with straw hats, paper cups and epithets. Crowd Dispersed. handled the lad roughly were vig- orously denied today by Guy himself. He does insist, however, that the po- lice told him to leave the park, in con- trast with the assertion of the officers that such action was not taken. All agree that Guy surrendered the ball as soon as Policeman Dellinger ap- proached him, and that Lieut. Bremer- man instructed Dellinger to release his prisoner after he had been taken to the park office and lectured on the ethics of “hooking” foul balls. Inspector livans expressed the opin- fon that Guy should merely have been {given a warning, as he gave up the {ball to the policeman. The whole trouble started as a re- sult of a letter from American League headquarters advising Clark Griffith, president of the local ball club, that numerous complaints have been made regarding the frequent appearance on the fleld of spectators in pursuit of foul balls. Griffith Asks Ald. According to Capt. Robert E. Doyle of the eighth precinct Griffith request- ed him Saturday to assist in abolish- ing this practice. “I explained to him,” Capt. Doyle sald today, “that the ‘police would assist park guards in preserving order, but that we couldn’t arrest any one merely for trespassing on the field, as it was not violating a police regulation. If a trespasser refused to leave and be- came disorderly, however, 1 told him |we would take necessary action.” Doyle was not at the game yester- day, and Lieut. C. H. Bremmerman, {acting in his place, had not been in- formed of the Saturday conference when a park official approached him with a request that a policeman be stationed on the fleld at the far ends of the right and left foul lines. Brem- merman, in his report to Evans, said he took the matter up with Inspector Pratt, his superfor, who told him to go ahead and make the detall. In the ninth inning of the game things began to happen. Guy, sitting in a left-field box, saw a foul ball roli almost within his reach on the grass. Congratulating himself on this fine piece of luck, which comes seldom in the lifetime of the average fan, the boy stepped to the field, picked the sphere up, and, as the crowd cheered, resumed his seat. Simultaneously the policeman, not far away, swung into action.

Sager Realtor 924 15th St. “Inspector Pratt told me that some of my men were going to be mobbed, Lieut. Bremmerman’s report remi- nisced today, “so I hurried to their ald. The crowd eventually was dis- persed.” But the throng didn’t want to leave in a hurry. Their sympathles were with the boy. They thought he had probably been lodged in a cell with & charge of stealing against him, or something like that, and they weren't going to stand for it. They congre- gated just inside the park gates, walt ing for the policeman and his rescu- ers to appear from beneath. the stands, where they had taken discreet refuge. Members of the Washington and Chicago teams could not get their automobilds through the crowd. Grad- ually, as additional police arrived and reasoned with the assemblage, the throng broke up and the policemen emerged in good shape. Policeman’s Course Praised. Policeman Dellinger proved himself a diplomat of the first order while he was being besleged. He did not lose his head, kept firm hold on his temper and walked right ahead as though he were the only person on the field. It is belleved that had he pitch- ed into the crowd with his baton in- stead of taking things good-naturedly he might have started a real riot, for | many of the hooters were in an ex-! ceedingly ugly mood. He was com- mended today for his presence of mind under the circumstances. In justification of his request for police aid in' clearing the field of spec- tators, Manager Griffith issued the following statement today: “Spectators must keep off the fleld while a game Is in progress, or suffer the consequences of their trespass- ing,” said Griffith this morning. “In no other park in the American League are they permitted to invade the play- ing territory and they cannot do so here. We have had considerable trouble with spectators in that re- spect this season, and umpires and Visiting clubs have complained to me MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, and Ban Johnson, president of the] C.7 1925. league, frequently. ! “League headquarters has advised | us that the rule requiring fields to be | kept clear of all not connected with the game must be enforced, and it will be from now on. A police detail always has been sent from the eighth precinct station to the ball park to dssist in preserving order. It is cus- tomary in all the big league cities, ex- cept New York and Cleveland, to call upon the civic authorities for police. The two citfes excepted . maintain their own forces of special policemen. In the heat of a game, it is nothing unusual for base ball crowds to be- come a trifle unruly, and police de- tails are necessary. “Many base balls are lost during a season, and the club expects to stand for the losses. But it will not toler- ate trespassing upon the fleld during a game. If we are to have base ball, patrons must remain in the stands while it is being played. And I have requested the Police Department to assist the Washington club in_keep- ing them there at such times. Itisa league, rule, and a rule intended to benefit the spectators in that they may not have the progress of the game balked by outsiders. It is a good rule, and it will be followed Pt he had known, when the state- ment was given out, that Commis- sioner Fenning doesn't countenance the use of his police for enforcement of league rules, the Old Fox might have added that the park guards will pinch-hit hereafter for the bluecoats.
