They boost , boost , boost.
At another inlerval Ihe O'Neill girls
sang this :
Mine eyes have seen the glory
That our boys will win today.
Our team is pushing onward
For It's the very best they play.
The Pllger fans will lumble down
Before Ihelr bright array.
Our team is marching on.
Glory , glory , hallelujah ,
Say Just watch the Irish do you.
Glory , glory , halleluiah ,
Our team Is marching on.
Another of their songs was this :
Good bye old Pllgerltcs ,
Farewell to you.
O'Neill will get your ncalps ,
She's your hoodoo.
Pakenshnew will win this game
Pllger will fall.
You cnn make a great big bluff ,
But you can't play ball.

FATHER LEVONT MARTOOGES-
SIAN INDICTED IN NEW YORK.
PROBE FOR .TVIURDER EVIDENCE
Centra ) Figure In Conspiracy Which
Had for Its Object the Blackmailing
of Wealthy Armenians Hope to Se
cure Confession from Slayer.
New Yoik , Aug. 1. Four indict
ments now lie against Father Lovont
Martoogobslan , the Aimenian , who , It
s alleged , boinu times laid aside hlb
irleslly robes lo nmctloe exloillon
and blackmail. The pilebl Is just now

irovo had lor Its object the lobber )
of wealthy Aimonlans and led to the
nurdor of Ihe rug merchant , Ta\sluin-
Ian , and others who i of used lo be
financially bled.
From Ihe suiyer of Tavshanjlnn , Bees -
) os Hampartzoomlan as ho is known
lore , Iho police hope lo secuie a con
fession establishing that Iho ) outh
unwillingly was Ihe agent of black
mailing terrorisls. A trunk which
Hampartzoomlan had In Lowell has
icon brought here and its contenls may
throw some light on the Investigation.
Once the assiibbln Is convinced that he
was moie of a lool than a patriot , the
pol ce expect him lo make dibclobiiies
at will make oasj Ihe wiping oul ol
a dangeious gang.
Ot the three additional indlclmenla
against Martoogessian biought In by
the grand jury , two chaigo attempted
robbery , as did Ihe original Indict
ment , and one alleges extortion. The
lalter charges that the pi lest w.ib 10-
spo'.isible for at least one ot the black
mailing letters which quickly lollowed
the death ot the rug merchant.
The letter was mailed In Now Yoik
on the afternoon of July 22 , the da )
that Tavshanjian was shot. It was
written In led ink , in the Armenian
language , and wns signed by the sym
bol of the terroiibls , three hands \\itl.
daggers uplltted , poised above a led
heail. The letter is as tollows :
"Death Wai rant The executives of
the Constantinople Armenian Hevolu
llonary Teriorlfats' organization con
demn to death Haroutlan Gulbenkian
Gulabl Gulbenkian and Palrlck Gill
benkian , Iho Ihree brothers who en
tlrely have deaf ears to all appeals
for national freedom. Our executive
board , having given Its decision to
Haroutlan and Gulabl Gulbenkian In
America , gives them twenty-four
hours' time to decide between their
dutj and death. "
The letter Is dated : "Constantino
ple , June 27 , 1907. "
Following the letter is a postscript
also in red ink , which reads as fol
lowi :
"Although nellher prison nor hang
Ing can prevent us from fulfilling our
duty to the endit _ Is necessary that
you should knowP If you betray this
letter or cause harm to one hair on
the heads of ono of us , against tha
consider your whole family wlpei
out. "
Before this letter came Haroutlan
Gulbenkian , who Is Ihe accusing wit
ness agalnsl the priest , had recelvei
a blackmailing letter demanding ? 5 ,
000 , but had not complied with Iho
demand.
The sense of the indlctmenl is lha
the priest either sent the quoted let
tcr or caused it to be sent.
