Chicago hotel men were to meet to consider reductions in the cost of living, Russell J.

Potatoes were selling at from $1.50. to $2 a hundred pounds wholesale, Peaches, tomatoes and fruits were quoted at close to pre-war prices. Arrangements were made to hear John Heydler, president of the Na tional league; John MeGraw, man ager of the New York Giants, and others high in the baseball world but as far a& known they were not called, The announcement of the tn. dictments before these men came be fore the grand jury caused a ble surprise, Tho indictments were returned at @ time when the National baseball commission, the highest body in the baseball world, was meeting here to make plans for the 1920 series. Information which han been gath- ered by in tended to Indicate that the same clique of gamblers which i# alleged to have “fixed” the 1919 series, had made plans to have Brooklyn throw the coming series to the Cleveland Indiana These re- porta said that the Chicago White Sox were being blackmailed by the gamblers who aro alleged to have gotten the players under indictment in their grip last year, to throw this year's pennant to Cleveland SERIES OVERTHROW PLOT UNFOLDED Bookmakers on baseball games are known to have passed the tip around that Cleveland would take the American league pennant as well as the world #eries. The plot to throw the 1919 series, as unfolded before the grand jury, was reported to be substantially as follows: A go-dbetween ts alleged to have approached one of the White Sox players offering $100,000 from a gamblers’ syndicate to throw the games. This White Sox player approached those whom he could trust with the proposed deal. ii! g to the proposition, The money was to have been placed in the hands of the players before the first game. ‘The go-between led the White Sox Players to believe that a big cant ern gambler was behind the deal. In reality, a “piker” who did not have $100,000 to pay over, backed the deal. When the money was not forth- coming before the first game the explanation was given the players that the gamblers needed the money to place bets. This sounded logical and appeased those alleged to have been in on the deal. After the second game $10,000 was paid over to the White Sox players, according to this information and that is all they received.
