Cieotte told the grand jury, It was an- rounced, that he received £10,000 for his part in losing the series. He never. saw « man who paid the money, he said, He he would find the £10,000 under ow in,hia hotel room on the night first game at Cincinnati, and he réturned to his room the money Joe Juckson received $5,000. Like Cicotte he found the money in his bed when he returned.to his room on the before the first game. A eourt official who wi-, present When Cleotte went on the stand described the scene when the star pitcher broke down nd cried as he told the jury of his part the series “fixing.” My God, think of my children,” he cried. Clootte has two small children. Tve | a thousand years in the ast year,” the court official quoted him as saying. 1 pever did So¥thing T regretted so much my life,” the witness added, conding o the state official. “I would give anything in the world if 1 could un- do my acts in the last world's serles. T've played a crooked game und 1 have lost and I am here to tell the wiole truth.” The story Cleotte is sald to have told the Jury follows in every essentia) par- ticulnr that tosl @ Phladeithia by harg last night. “In the first game A1i 1 was knocked out %f the box,” Clcotte told the jury, according to cour. aeial. *I Wasn't putting a thing on the ball. You could have read %e trade mark on it when I lobbed the ball up to the plate.” In the fourth game played at Chica- go. which 1 also lost, 1 deliberately in- ercepted a-throw from the outfield to the| plate which might have cut oft a run, T muffed the ball.on purpose. At anothe er time in the same game I purposely mado & wild throw. -~ All the runs scored Against me were dye to my own deliberate srrors. 1 did not try to win.” Jackson said that throlighout thg se- ries he. jther struck out or else hit easy Salls when hits would have meant runs. President Heydler, of the National Leaghe, before going before the grand jury said the scandal in organized base- ball was “the most deplorabls thing that bas ever happened in the history of the wame” He added that he was glad the case was'in the hands of a competent court and while it was a terrible thing he heped that the guilty would be pun- ‘shed. ‘When Jackson finished his testimony béfore the grand jury he was taken into cdstody by a deputy shérifft. A court official sald that Jackson testified, that recejved his Money in a Cineinnati ho- tel and that Risberg and McMullin were the principal payoff men, Jackson statea: that he received his money from Claud Williams. ¥ According to the court officials Jackson testified that while each played impli- cated was approached individually that sach Xnew about the other. .He sal :{Cm!uhflnlw‘l-flhlhtlhe leader of this. He said that the players thought that Gandil had double-crossed them but afterwards found out it Was Abe Attell who had failed to pay the money he promised. While the grand jurors voted their true bills the Old Roman seated in the midst of his crumbling out at White Sox park, issued the telegrain suspending those involved, paid off Weaver, Cicotte und Jackson on the spot, and announced fthat checks for pay due the others would, be sent them at once. » With ‘his voice trembling, Mr. Comisky, who has owned the White Sox since the inception of ihe*American league, said this was the first time scandal had ever touch his family” and. that it distressed him too much to talk about it. The rush of players fo bare their #art in the affair, started today when Cicotte appeared at criminal court bmild- in gan asked permission to: festify. Ci- cotte wept, court attaches said, and ex- tlaimed in anguish hi sofrow for his two small children as he told how ‘he -id his utmost to lose rather than win the 1919 wor.d series after he had ‘found” $10,000 beneath his pillow where it had been placed by professional zamblers. Last yedr's world series records show that in the first irining of the first game he started’ by pitting Rath, the firat Cincinnati batter, in he back. Daubert followed with single over second base that sent Rath to third and he scored ‘vhen Groh flied to Jackson, Rath beat- Jackson's ghrog to_ the plate. Chicago tied this run in the next in- ning, Kopf putting Jackson on second with a wild throw: ' Felsch sacrificed aim to third and Gandil dropped a lit- tle fiy safély in center, scoring.Jack- “on. The end of Cleotte's pitching and the runs that ultimately won the game were neored by Cinélnnati ‘in the fodirth in- aing. Al the damage was done with ‘wo out. With Kopf on first, nealg and Wingo singlel amd Reuger, the hard hitting * Cinciatta pitcher, drove ‘a. three [7ase hit to ‘the center field hieachers. Rath doubled.and Daubert singled, the vombination resulting in five runs. Wilk- inson took Gicotte’s place after Daub- wert's- single and Groh flledx Felsch.

The teds won thi's game by a score of 2 to W, Lting pitching for. Cincinnati, holding he Amcrican league champions to three wits. Doth Cincinnati runs were made in the fifth inning, when two of Cinci nati’s hits were bunched with a wild throw to first by Cicotte and a bad "Irow 10 the plate by Jackson, which e %iteNes intercepted and muffed. The slay of this inning was sent over the Associated Press as “Tollows: “Roush was out, Schalk to Gandil, the ball rolling half, way to the pitcher's b0x.

The rest of the game was played sharply and, so far as the records show, cleanly. Cicotte pitched through the pine innings. Cicotte's next appearance in the se- ries was in the sixth game, when Cin- cinnati had four viétories to its credit against one defeat, Richard Kerr, the dimunitive left-handeds pitcher, having shutout the National League champions in the third game. The veteran twirler, went through nine innings and held his onponents to seven hits. Chicago won the game, 4 to 1. Jackson and Felsen each got two hits and between them drove in all of Chicago's runs. Billy Maharg, Philadelphia’s prize fight- er, who last night, in Philadelphia, issued 4 statement connecting Cicotte with the gambling deal, and charging Abe Attell, former fighter, headed the” gambling clique, asserted that the Sox were double- crossed by Attell and never recefved $100,000 which had been promised them. It was Jate In the series before they foun dthis out, Maharg asserted, ag At- tell kept postponing the day of settlement, saying he needed the.money to bet. Besides the two defeats registered | against Cicotte in the, seriés three others were chalked up agafidst Claude Williams. The latter, a “sida arm” left-hander, was Wild in the second and fifth games, which went o the Reds 4 202 and 5 to 0. In the eight. and 1ast game of the series he was found for. four solid hits B the et inning and: that game and the fitle ‘of world’s_champions went to Cincinnati, 10 to 5. Wil jame’ lack of control was gen- rally recorded as_the cause - oy . the cause of his ge e fifth game of the sbries was a shut- out triumph for Hod Eller, the big ahina ball” ‘expert of the Cincinnati pitching Staft. Only threes hits were made oft him and he established a world series record by striking out- the side in two successive innings. All \told Eller had nine stfike outs that day.
