TALK OF PROFESSIONAL BALL
Back Keith Makes m Proposition to
the Commercial Club Which
Look Good.
"Buck" Keith, the base ball Impresaarlo
of Omaha; was In Council Bluffs yesterday
conferring with the member ot the execu
tive committee ot the Commercial club
relative to placing a professional team in
this city this season. At a recent meeting
In Sioux City It wa proposed to reorganise
the Iowa-South Dakota league with Council
Bluffa, Sioux City, Sioux Fall and Lemara,
the only town In It.
H. W. Binder, the base hall enthusiast of
tha executive committee, waa detailed by
the other member to take the matter up
with the' motor company with a view to as
certaining If the ball park at Lake Manawa
could be secured. Mr. Binder learned, how
ever, that tha Manawa ball park has been
leased for thla season by the Eagles, the
team organised and managed by Harry K.
Smith, and that It waa very unlikely that
any arrangement could be made for pro
fessional base ball at the lake this summer.
It ha been' suggested that 'ground could
be secured la the western part of the city
near the street car line, hut to place them
In proper condition would Involve an ex
pense from $1,000 to (1,500, and it I not
certain that thla money would be ubscrlbcd
by the business men ot the city. A profes
sional ball team, It 1 cotaeeded, would do
much toward advertising Council Bluffs,
and Mr. Binder stated last evening that
ometblng might be done toward accepting
Keith' proposition If the committee found
that the proper financial eupport would be
forthcoming.
Keith stated to the committee that If hla
proposition I accepted be would move to
Council Blufi and mtke hi home here and
would follow up the base ball season with
n endeavor to schedule some big foot ball
game here for the fall.

Witnesses to Show Ho laa la
Hot Sprlnaja on Date
of Robbery
"The moment I saw those eyes and that
nose I knew that be waa the man who
held me up and robbed me," was the pos
itive statement of Charles W. Letchford
, juatice Ouren court yesterday morn
,,,,.. .a nnin.1 Ma nnre
8 turned and pointed ma nnge
finger
at W, C. Roger, alias Frank Parson,
whose preliminary bearing on the charge
of murderously assaulting Letchford was
being held: Roger waa arrested on sus
picion of being Okie of the two men who
hot and killed Saloonkeeper Bert Forney
on the night of April 8. The day following
hi arrest he wa Identified by Letchford
as the man who had held him ,np and
robbed him In hi meat market on South
Main street on the night ot March '!.
Letchford waa tho flret witness placed
on the stand and he told la detail the
tory of how he had been robbed at the
point of a revolver. He aaid that he had
Just completed counting hi day' receipts
and had placed the money In a sack when
a man with feature partly, concealed with
a white handkerchief entered and pointing
a revolver In hla face demanded that he
hold up hi hand. Letchford demurred
when the fellow said he wanted hi money
and that he did not want to kill him but
he would have to if he did not at once
hand over the sack containing the money.
Letchford then realized he was tip against
the real thing and not only handed over
the sack containing ' about $50 In silver,
but drew a $5 bill from hi vest pocket
which he also presented to the robber with
the request that -as' he had the money to
go. The robber, however, " with hla re
volver close up to Letchford' face, com
pelled him to back Into the. rear room. A
the robber followed , Letchford grappled
with him and succeeded In wresting the
revolver away and threw the fellow to the
floor. In the scuffle the gun was discharged
and a the robber roee to hi feet Letch
ford fired again. He tried to (hoot again
but the gun missed fire. The 'robber fell
against the sausage bench calling out "For
Ood's sake don't shoot any more; you have
killed me anyhow." Letchford, however,'
took another shot at him and tried to do
so again, but the weapon refused to work.
At thla point In his 'story Letchford
stated that It was bis Intention to kill hi
assailant and he would have' fired twelve
shot had there been that many in the re
volver. Thinking he had mortally wounded
the robber, Letchford ran to the front of
his shop and called tor help, but when he
returned he found that the robber had
made hi escape' by breaking out a rear
window and had taken the sack of money
with him. ,
Letchford testified that during hi pro
longed encounter with ' the robber he had
every opportunity to get an excellent view
of him and waa positive in hi identification
of Rogers aa hi assailant. He said the
handkerchief the robber wore over hi face
only concealed the . part ' below the nose,
leaving the upper part uncovered.
Caleb Ellsworth, a carpenter, testified
to passing Letchford'. shop a few minute
before hearing the shots and noticed a man
looking through the window into the shop
as Letchford wa standing at the counter
counting hla cash. The man had a white
handkerchief In hla hand and the witness
said that he reaembled the defendant,
Roger.
These were the only witnesses examined
yesterday and a continuance wa taken to
thla morning when counsel for the defend-
ant will ask for a 'further continuance for
a week In order to secure the attendance
ot witnesses who would testify that Rogers
waa in Hot Springs, Ark., on March 2.
