Root got away to a good start by retiring the first two batters on two pitched balls.

Charlie Grimm furnished the first big thrill by hitting a homer over the right-field wall ia the fourth, with Cuyler on base. FIRST INNING. CHICAGO—Quinn failed to locate the plate for McMillan and he walked on four pitched balls. On a count of two and two English fouled with the hit-and-run signal displayed. Miller then crossed the foul line to gather in English’s foul. Hornsby took the first strike and fouled another. The next two were wide, and the Rajah then swung futilely at a ball that cut the heart of the plate. This was the seventh time in the series that Hornsby has fanned. Wilson fouled Quinn’s initial pitch, but whacked the next to right field for a clean single, sending McMillan to second. This was Wilson's sixth hit of the series.

DECLARES DEALINGS FOR UNIVERSAL GOOD No Exclusive Understanding Be- tween U. S. and Great Britain Discussed, He Says. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 12—With a last appealing message not alone to the British and American people, but to all the nations of the earth, Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald has brought to an end his peace mission to the United States. A very tired man after the efforts of the past week, the British statesman today began a two-day rest before go- ing to Canada to begin there the stu- pendous task that lies ahead in work- ing out the many problems to the solu- tion of which he and President Hoover have pledged themselves. In this talk, which continued for nearly an hour, the prime minister spoke with a feeling which was appar- ent alike in his voice and his gesture. He gave some intimate details of how he and the President carried on their personal negotiations in the wilderness of the Virginia mountains and in the Lincoln study at the White House. Public's Patience Asked. More than that, he undertook to again reassurg the world that what took place was solely for the promotion of uni- versal peace and he appealed to.the American people for patience, for un- derstanding, for good will while the British people are replaci the old furniture of their minds with the new and more modern furniture of naval limitation and’ parity. His message to the other . nations regarding the conversations between President Hoover and himself was briefly but earnestly delivered. “1 want to say quite definitely and clearly,” he said, “I want the whole world to know it, and I say it without any reserve and any withholding of any kind whatever, that during the entire course of our conversations there has never been any idea whatever of an exclusive understand! between Great Britain and the U States. “There has lete and unsatisfactory '\lmtu it has come the common possession of all the nations on the face of the earth.” Without Any Maneuvers. ‘The British statesman introduced his description of the conversations between himself and Mr. Hoover by saying that they did not try to maneuver each other into position or out of position, “We tried, as I have said, for no alliances and no balances of power,” he asserted. “We did not sit down to play a creeping and waiting game. We did not watch each other as swords- men watch each other or as’ prize fighters study the faces of each other. We did not begin by offiering little things, trying to best each other and then to advance step by step and stage by stage as the one rorceJ the other. We did not examine statements me- ticulously in order to discover how we could put something over the other without his knowing it. Difficulties Frankly Told. “The method was altogether differ- ent. We knew what we were out for. We stated the difficulties of our re- spective courltries. He told me his. I equally frankly told him mine. He told me what he thought he could do. I told him what I thought I could do. He told me what public opinion de- manded of him. I told him what wbllc opinion demanded of me. “In that sincerity, in that simplicity, in that informality, we conducted our negotiations and that is the reason why four brief days we came to con- clusions that under the old diplomacy would have taken at least ‘as many months to have achieved.” The text of Mr. Macdonald’s New York speech will be found on page 3.

SAN RAFAEL, Calif, October 12.— An automobile hurried down a San Rafael street with a pair of legs dang- ling unnaturally from one side. Deputy Sheriffs Leslie Tracey and Jack Mc- Ginnis, sensing a murder and a corpus delictl, pursued and overtook it. While McGinnis whipped out his gun and covered the driver, Tracey flashed his star and demanded: ““Who's the victim?” “That ain’t a victim; that's a tailor's dummy,” said the astonished driver.

TWO CENTS HOOVER'S LONDON VISIT I DENIED White House Announces He Plans No Journey Beyond Western Hemisphere. Printed reports that President Hoo- ver may make a visit to London for the purpose of returning the good will visit of Prime Minister Macdonald are without foundation, according to high White House authority. In response to ihquiries regarding the possibility, it was said at the White Possible, ‘The fact that the White House denial specified that the President would not g0 beyond the Western Hemisphere in- tes that he is still considering visit time in the future to Mexico and Porto Rico and other points # trip away from Washing- ton in the near future Mr. Hoover has in mind at this time is the journey he is to take to Detroit, Cincinnati and Louisville, October 21 to 25. However, It is expected that the President might arrange two weeks' vacation for bim- self sometime during the coming Winter. He has made no secret of the fact that he would iike about two weeks of deep sea fishing, but there is nothing definite in this respect, and if the busi- ness of his office keeps up throughout the Winter like it has been this Fall 1t is doutful if he will be able to gratify his wishes, Has Mapped Busy Week. Mr. Hoover has mapped out a busy week end for himself at the White House. Faced with the task of writing three speeches he is to make on hLis forthcoming trip to Detroit, Ciucinnati and Louisville, the President is denying himself to as many callers as possible 50 as to give his full attention to his speech writing. There were no en- gagements on his guest list today. He was at his office at the usual early hour and spent the greater part of the fore- noon laboring with the drafting of one of the three speeches he has in mind. It is his intention this afternoon to continue at this work in his study at the White House, and it is probable that he will keep at the job until bed- time tonight. It is understood that @Mrs. Hoover will motor to Baltimore this afternoon to witness the foot ball game between the Annapolis Naval Cadets and Notre University. The President was anxious to accompany her, and it was not until after breakfast this morning that he made up his mind to forego that pleasure and apply himself to the work before him. It is expected that the President and Mrs. Hoover will attend religious serv- ices tomorrow at the Quaker Meeting House at Thirteenth and Irving streets, and in the afterncon go for an automo- bile ride in the nearby country for sev- eral hours, possibly indulging in a pic- nic luncheon along the ide if the weather permits.

SMOOT CONFIDENT OF TARIFF VICTORY Informs Hoove'r‘ at ‘Parley Senate Will Reach Final Vote by November 20.. S8 Chairman Smoot of the Senate finance' committee, after a conference with President Hoover today, expressed confidence that the Senate would reach a final vote on the tariff bill by Novem- ber 20. The Senator said he had reviewed the situation surrounding the tariff bill with the President. Although asserting that the Demo- cratic-independent Republican coalition power enough to defeat the bill, Smoot said he had assurances from Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the Democratic leader, that this was not the intention of his party colleagues. Promulgation Opposed. Fears of Republican leaders that the administration would not favor a con- tinuance of the tariff debate into the regular session, beginning in December meanwhile have received neither con- firmation nor authoritative denial. A dozen more individual amendments will still confront the Senate when it reassembles Monday, to be disposed of before the rate schedules can be taken up. With that in view and only six weeks left for the special session, those working to get the bill out of the way found cause for addition worry in the fact that two days were consumed in disposition of the.Cutting amendment to modify customs bans against im- ported books. Under that amendment, as adopted, the bar against * oral” books would be removed, leaving the customs authorities concerned only with litera- ture urging forcible resistance to any American law or containing a threat against the life of an American citizen. Prison Labor Up. The first of the individual amend- ments awaiting action Monday is a proposal by Senator Blaine, Republican, of Wisconsin to extend the prohibition against importation of convict-made and convict-mined goods to include all goods made by forced labor. Senator Reed, Republican, of Penn- sylvania, who has carried much of the brunt of the debate for the Republican regulars, meanwhile. made public a telegram from officers of the America's Wage Earners’ Protective Conference. It protested against “the malicious and unwarranted insinuations made by Sen- ator Henry F. Ashurst on the floor of the Senate Tuesday, October 8, toward Senator Reed while the latter was at labor’s request urging the adop- tion of legislation of great value to the American wage workers.” Release of the statement by Reed fol- lowed an attempt by Senator Watson to read it into the record, as the mes- sage requested, which was blocked by protests from Senator Robinson and other Democrats. Watson offered to withdraw it in view of their- attitude that it was an attack on Al::ur!l. but tl it was expun, 1 Reco My xpunged from rd FALL NOT T0 TAKE STAND AS WITNESS Doheny Is Expected to Tell of $100,000 Loan Made to Ex-Cabinet Officer. ‘Whatever the expectations that Albert B. Fall would be called upon to testify during his trial on bribery charges were abandoned today when Govern- ment counsel announced the former Secretary of the Interior would not be asked to take the witness stand. Conditional upon the sick defendant's physical ability to continue with the trial after court reconvenes Monday morning, it was the general consensus of counsel on both sides that the case would go to the jury October 21 or October 22. 1f it is at all possible an endeavor will be made to conclude the trial at the end of next week. .- Doheny fo_ Tell Story.. Frank J. Hogan, chief defense coun- sel, agreed with Government counsel that it was obvious that to take the stand. Hogan will rely upon Edward 4. Doheny to tell the jury the story of the $100,000 received from him by the former cabinet officer, which the Government contends was a bribe. Through the California oil man the de- fense will present its claim that the money was given as a loan to an old friend. Two days at the outside will be oc- cupled by Owen J. Roberts of Govern- ment counsel to complete his case. Hogan will require about five. Government_counsel disclosed today that Edward B. McLean, publisher of the Washington Post, from whom Fall at first said he received the $100,000, is il in a sanitarium outside of Wash- ington. He will be unable to testify next week. By agreement, his testimony in the former conspiracy trial will read to the jury. Occupies Wheelchair. His condition “somewhat improved” since his legal victory late yesterday in averting a mistrial, Mr. Fall today came into court in a wheelchair, and appeared quite at ease as he watched the proceedings from the prisoner'’s bar. He again occupied the big com- fortable chair furnished him on account of his weakened condition. While the trial proceeded with cross- examination of C. C. Finney, former First Assistant Secretary under Fall, the uestion uppermost in the minds of e court and counsel alike was how long the iron nerve of the defendant would keep up under the strain. Only Mr. Fall's announced determination to seek vindication despite his condition is believed to make 1t possible for him to leave his sick bed. With_an uninterrupted opportanity for complete rest this afternoon and to- morrow, 1t was apparent that Mr. Fall would be able to continue with his trial Monday unless some unforeseen setback occurs in the lung trouble which phy- h;:lcls:u declare indicates bronchial pneu- onia. Mr. Roberts had completed his ex- amination of the present solicitor of the Interior Department when court adjourned yesterday. Greets Jurors, The jurors received a polite and hearty “good-morning” from Justice ‘William Hitz, after they had filed into their seats. They responded in a chorus | and also smiled at the array of counsel on both sides. Examination of the Interior Depart- ment official by Attorney Hogan was di- rected at bringing out the defense claim that no secrecy was involved in the bftis for the Elk Hills lease for construction of the naval storage oil tanks under the accepted bid of Do- heny's Pan-American ' Co. He called for a voluminous list of documents and letters bearing on the leases and the negotiations between Fall and the Navy Department.

Kelly today turned to the Senate District committee to seek vindication of the grand jury's severe condemnation of their activities in con- | nection with the investigation of the | mysterious death of Mrs. Virginia Mc- Pherson while the committee was try- ing to decide whether it should go for- ward at once with its investigation of the Police Department and the United States attorney’s office. ‘It was finally decided to refer the program of the inquiry to a subcommittee. Some members of the committee took the view that an investigation of the Police Department at this time might unduly influence the trial of Robert A.

Agreeable to Course. Senator Blease indicated that if the phases of the investigation, such as the police handling of the McPherson case, wait until some later date, such a course would be agreeable to him. One of the high lights of the meeting was the reiteration by Blease of the charge he made in the Senate recently that narcotics can be purchased within the shadow of the Capitol. The South Carolina Senator declared that he has in a safe in his office at the present time a quantity of optum that was pur- chased within the past three days for $3 by a person who, the Senator said, obtained it from a place not far from the Capitol.
