McGraw, displaying honored wounds of battle, appeared on the fleld with his forces, but he was severely let alone by Phillie players, and the fans did not ‘make’ him until the fighting was well under way. Otto Knabe, Dan Howley and other antagonistic athletes praactised with the Giants, just to show that bygones were bygones, but Larry Doyle took Knabe off into a corner a ttle later on to get the real dope on the wallop- ing of McGraw by Ad Brennan.

It seems thaot when McGraw purchased Lathrop the White Sox had a previous option on his services and the Commission held that binding.

LONDON, July 1.—Lady Sackville and her family to-day entered = general denial of the allegations made by the relatives of the late Sir John Murray Soott that they had influenced Sir John to leave to them the bulk of his fortui of $6,000,0000, or that Lady Sackvilje allenated him from his family. The case for the Scotts concluded this morning, and Sir Edward Carson, coun- sel for the Sackvilles, addressed the jury, He first asked the julige to declare that no evidence had been brought forward to show the existence of a codicil to the will which Sir John Murray Scott was alleged to have made in 1910 or 1911, re- voking the legacy to Lady Sackville, or that there was any evidence of fraud or undue influence against the Saokvilles, JUDGE DECIDES CASE MUST GO TO JURY. The judge, however, decided that the case must go to the jury. Sir Edward Carson said the evidence would show that the friendship between the late Sir John Murray Scott and the kvilies was that of connolsseur Scott was a collector of antiques and art objects, while the Sackvilles were the owners of a great collection which was housed at Knole Park, their coun- try seat at Sevenoaks, Kent, and the vists paid by Scott to that place were among the most pleasant episodes in hie Ufe. The Sackvil continued counsel, were not rich, and Scott, desiring that the Knole Park collection should ve kept intact, left his money in order to enable them to do that, Sir Edward Carson pleaded that all the facts In connection with the drawing of the will by the late Sir John Murray a Scott proved there had heen no coerck on the part of the Sackville family After the will was drawn in 1900, said Sir Kdward, Sir John Scott simply walked unaccompanied into a store kept by a friend and asked hin friend and a! clerk to witness the document. As for| Lord Sackville, no evidence had been of-| fered that he ad anything to do with! the cas Counsel for Malcolm Scott, the testa- tor's brother, and the other members of the Scott family agreed that there wax evidence of the existence of wed codicil te the will. Sir Edward Carson contended that| after making his will Sir John’ Murray Heott had executed codlelis that left more money to his family than the original) will had gone and that he liberally pro- vided for them during his life from} money which had come to him from a stranger, Lady Wallace, All the evi- dence, said counsel, showed that the Sackvilles had used no undue influence. During the reading of the farewell | ters from Sir John Scott to Lady Sack-!| ville, in which Scott twice repeated that) rejoiced to have some one to whom! he could confide his fine things, Lady| Sackville was overcome with emotion. | At the conclusion of Sir Edward | son's speech Lady Sackville entered the witness box and told of her firat me ings with the jate Bir John Scott, The court was crowded with fashion- ably dressed women.
