He invited her to visit him in Washing- ton, but she didn't go. T have wit- nesses to prove he was friendly with her." The first statement was made yes- terday by Babe Ruth in New Orleans; the second by George Feinberg, at- torney, who insisted he would file a complaint in the supreme court ask- ing $50,000 damages for Miss Dixon | on the ground that he is father of her| expected child, | There the case stood yesterday.

Hus- ton, part owner of the Yankees, at the formal papers had been filed. Miss| ixon, said to be 19, with chestnut hair and a comely childish face, was in hiding. Feinberg refused to tell! here whereabouts. | She is believed to be living With | Gustave Escoe, a city employe and his| wife, Barbara Eseoe, her guardian ad litem, with whom she lived for a ycari in an expensive apartment at 583 Riverside Drive. They moved two weeks ago, leaving no forwarding ad- dress, | Known on East Side They know about Miss Dixon in the squalid tenement district near 420 East | Eighth street, where Iscoe used tol live, Escoe's father lives there. His| name is Etzkowitz. Escoe has his name | changed in 1913. [Iiscoe refused yes-| terday to say where he is living now. | His salary is $1,525 a year, a sum| about equal to the rent of the furnished | apartment he occupied on Riverside| Drive, He said he had known Miss Dixon two years. Who was she? “Oh,” he said, “Babe Ruth knows She has it on him and several others. The others? Well, Ruth is not the only ball player who is going| to be brought into the case.” | Escoe is small of statue with a pugilist’s cast of face. He refused to| answer any questions about Miss Dix- on. | “She was a frequent visitor at the Polo Grounds when the Yankees were playing,” was all he would say. | Miss Dixon's lawyer was hardly less secretive. He displayed only the brief complaint he said he would file to- |day, charging his client had been ate |tacked several times last July and | August by Ruth. | In fact, the on'y papers on file at lall now are proceedings in which Jus- | |tice Faber, in Brookiyn, appointed | Mrs. Escoe guardlan of the girl. These | were to permit the girl to bring an | Elks' club. He said, in denying he had ever offered’' to compromise the proposed action, that he had just handed the paper to Ruth and walked off. “Hyman Hushel, Ruth's attorney, said we had offered to settle,” Fein- berg said. “That's not the truth. He said also Babe had told me to go to hell. That's a lie, too. He didn't threaten me, If he had told me to go to hell or threatened me I'd have smashed him in the face.” He said he would probably permit Miss Dixon to give out a statement today. Mrs. .Ruth, in New Orleans with her husband, said she was going to stand by him in fighting the case if it actually is filed. Ruth is worried. “I hope they put this over until the season is over,” he said. “It hurts, It hurts bad. I don't want to lose time in court. 1've been hounded by confidence men and crooked, schem- ing women too much. It's all just a bunch of blackmail.” BAD BREATH Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets Get at the Cause and Remove It Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the sub- stitute for calomel, act gently on the bowels and positively do the work. People afflicted with bad breath find %mck relief through Dr. Edwards'Olive ‘ablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated | tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know them.
