Chase himself is strongly in favor of a public trial, as he wants to show the weakness of the case against him { He even promises to tell all that will happen at tomorrow’s hearing wheth- er or not it is announced by the league. Despite the fact that Heydler's de- fence of a private hearing has some points that are commendable on the whole the public feels that it would be far bhetter’ for the good of the zame if all the cards continually are on the table, While men close to Heydler know there is no more honest and square man in baseball than the new Nation- | a1 league president and that Chase is { certain of absolute justice, to the average bhaseball fan Hevdler is a man | elected to office and drawing salary from eight club owners. The case is that of a clul owner against a player. For that reason full publicity would give the public more confidence in the trial than if it is held hehind club doors.
