CHICAGO, January 10 (#).—Charles D. Warner, 62, veteran new man, and an_Aseistant Secretary State under Robert Lansing du the Wilson administration, died here Saturday night from an acute heart attack. “He had been a member of the Chicago Tribune’s radio staff for the last three years Mr. Warner v luated from the University of Michizan in 1890, and in the same year joinad the staff of the Chicago Inter-Ocean, becoming night clty editor of that newspaper.

But I don’'t owe Moore a quarter.” Moore and his attorney, Willlam Burkamp of Newport, Ky., arrived | here yesterday, and were at the Union | Station to meet Hornsby upon his | return from New York, where he | signed a two.year contract with the New York Giants, to whom he was traded recently. Hornsby referred them to Fahey. “At a preliminary conference last night,” Moore said, “Fahey’s attitude was to treat the matter lightly, with the opinfon that we had only a gambling debt to show. But when we showed him our documentary evidence he asked for time to talk with Hornsby. “I was very much impressed when I met Hornsby several years ago, and took great pride in knowing him and associating with him. 1 guess it was hero worship. At any rate it was ex- pensive. At first Hornsby would bet only $10 on a race. but later, after having a few winners, he wanted to bet. hundreds instead of ten. “Last_vear, at his request, I ad- vanced $7,500 so Hornsby could mak: the initial payment on a St. Louis apartment house. I also advanced him money ‘at various times to pay his debts and make bets at his request.” | Hornsby recently revealed that the Cardinal contract which he rejected included a proviso that he shouid not t on horse races or associate with those who do.
