SOUTHPAWS PITCH GOOD BALL
Brady and Hicks I'nt Oat Bender
Which Arc Too Itlnch for the
Brewery Aernrrnrntloti nml
They Are Blanked.
Two southpaw hurlcrs, King Brady and
Harry Illoks, provod too much for the
Store hlttera at Rourke park Sunday
afternoon and the semi-pros wero beaten
2 to 0,- But four hits Vore garnered oft
the port elders and one was excep
tionally scratchy. Omaha only mode
seven hits off Olson, who pitched a
steady game.
King Brady, minus the famous first
baseman's mitt, started the battle and
pitched six Innings. Then Harry Hicks
with his cute little wlndup entered tho
fray and pitched the remaining three.
The Stora only got to third base twice
In tho contest.
Crosby, and George Graham who ap
peared In a nifty Btorz suit were the
hitting kings. Both slapped out two
hits. Crosby's hit to center in tho fifth
sent Thomas across for the first run.
Crosby worked well behind the bat while
George played a clever fielding game on
Berond.
Knrlr Part Even.
For four Innings the two teams battled
desperately and It looked a If the con
test would run scoreless and It might
If Mr. Crosby had not delivered a hit
at the opportune time. Graham and
Clancy both made hits In the first but
until the fifth no more, hits were made,
Clancy's two bagger to right should have
been caught by Welch, who was slow
In starting after tho high fly. Krug
opened the fifth with a hit to left.
Then Lawler and Dyck executed a.
doublo play which caught both Krug and
Ward who had a liner which Lawler
was lucky enough to capture. With
two down, Thomas singled over second
and stole the keystone sack. Mr. Crosby
advanced to the plate and slammed the
pill Into center field, sending Thomas
home while ho went to second on the
throw in. Wallace, who batted for Brady
failed to bent out a bunt and the side
was retired.
Croshr SiTfi Score.
The Stnrz looked dangerous in the fifth
but .quick work by Crosby cut off
chances for a score. Dyck was safe
on Thomas' muff and Cavonaugh
scratched nn infield pop up which Clancy
failed to reach. Olson flew out .to
Thomason and Dyck was caught off
second for a double play. Graham sin
gled to, center, sending Cavanaugh to
third. As Graham started to steal,
Crosby pegged to second but Graham
doubled back while Cnvanaugh ran for
home. Clancy shot the ball to Crosby
and Crosby snapped It to Ward In time
to catch Cavanaugh diving back Into
the bag. It was a clever piece of big
league base ball and proved that Crosby
Is a finished performer behind tho bat.
Scor A urn In In Seventh.
Omaha made the second score In the
seventh. Thomason doubled to left and
went to third on Congalton's Infield
hit. Ward's sacrifice fly to Feltman
gave Thomason an opportunity to scam
per home.
Omaha had chances to score both In
tne nrsi ana the eighth but fell aJ
llttlo short. In the first Clancy was
safe at second on Welch's slow fielding.
He went to third on Chase's sacrifice
hit Thomas lifted a high one to Felt,
man, who caught the ball and pegged
to Cavanaugh In time to catoh Clancy
three feet It was a beautiful throw
but Clancy might have made It had he
been quicker to start. In the eighth
Crosby opened with a second hit but his
team mates fell down behind him and

Tenni3 Men Would
Revise Tristate
Tennis Tourney
Omaha tonnls players are advocating
the revival of the tristate tournament,
which was held In Sioux City up to
thre years ago. The midwest tourney,
which has always been held In Omaha.
has definitely been cancelled for this
ear and the, Omaha men have written
to Sioux City promising the support of
this city in the revival of the tristate
Harry Koch, city champion of Omaha,
lias written to Wu S. Oilman, a promi
nent Sioux City player, saying that the
Sioux City men can be assured of the
support of the various clubs In Omaha
In the revival of the Tristate association
8everal other Oma. men have written
to Mr. Oilman or Ed Isaakson In Bloux
City advising that the once famous tour
nament be revived.
The Sioux City players are working
hard to form onother tristate associa
tion and have been given encouragement
by many of the better tennis players of
the middle west. W. T. Hayes, one of
the best In this port of the country, has
promised to work for the tourney in
Chicago. J. J. Armstrong, In St. Paul,
has agreed to boost In Minneapolis. With
these two cracks and the Omaha men
working for the tristate, the Sioux City
men are hopeful of reviving the assenta
tion and holding a big tourney In the
Iowa City.
RECRUITS HAVE LEFT THE
ROURKE TRAINING CAMP
Three of the recruits who started the
training season with Omaha have dls-
ppeared from the horizon. The last to
go was Rex Smith, the semi-pro catcher
from I.emars. I a. The first to go was
Brown, a local lad. Boon after Colwell,
the youth from Payette. Idaho, which Is
the next station to the birthplace of Wal
ter Johnson, dorerted. Now Smith has
deserted. Borne ot the players on the
local team have heard that Smith went
to Des Moines for a tryout there under
the name of Harmony. While this Ii
not known for a fart, there is a man
named Harmony who joined the Iebell
squad Just after Smith's departure here
and he announced he was a semi-pro
catcher from Omaha.
Good IMtcUlliff Wins Game,
Because Knutser and Kaufman al
lowed but two hits and struck out twelve
men between thsm, the Emll Hansens
wolloped the Brodegaard Crowns at Elm

Omahii'i Great Outdoor Clubs Take
on New Life. .
COURSES IN Q00D SHAPE
Br the End of the Week Piny Will
Br Permitted on Most of the
Hreular Greens nt Varloaa
Clubs.
Tho whirr ot mowing machines and
the cry of "fore" was heard at the
Omaha country clubs yesterday as the
groundkeepera busted themselves with
the task of preparing the golf courses
for the annual Opening ot the clubs and
the enthusiastic players swarmed over the
tomporary greens.
Soverol hundred players, most of them
men, spent the morning or aftornoon,
or both, on tho courses yesterday and,
though none of the clubs havo yet opened
for tho season, tho enthusiasm ot the
golfers ran high.
Tho old-time shots, the old-time has
ards, the former tragedies ot the game,
the short approaches, the dubbed drives,
all came back to the devotees with a
rush as they drove down the course.
More than halt a hundred men played
at the Field club during the day, while
more than seventy-five were registered
at the Happy Hollow club during tho
afternoon. At the Country club there
were fewer, but none tha less enthusias
tic, foursomes and pairs, and Miller
park claimed an unusually large crowd
of early-season pltl-swatters.
Bill" Clark, the veteran ot profes-
atonaU here, has already bogun to wear
his mid-season scowl and he fluttered
about between caddy house and mowing
machine and club house like a madman
through tho entire day.
Charley Johnson Is a bit ahead of the
other pros this season in that he al
ready has a number of the permanent
greons ready for play, and by the Inst
of the week may be playing the regular
course at the Happy Hollow club.
The Country club course Is hardly
ready for play, but will be put In condi
tion as rapidly as weather conditions will
permit.
The Miller park course for th first
time will have water for the greens, and
the members believe that this wltl be one
of the best seasons In the history ot the
club, for a better course Is promised.

examination In open court.
Continuing
the decision said:
"The point, of Importance dwelt upon
by Dresner Was that he was present
when he heard Rose say to Vallon and
Webber, 'there he comes, go and put It
over him'; that Dresner understanding
what that meant crossed the street to
avoid danger and that Rose took htm
for a private detective. Rose did hot
so testify In the trial. What Rose testi
fied to was: i
Too ilnch LlUe Business.
"It began to look too much like busi
ness and I called Louie aside And I said,
pointing to a man across the street:
"Do you see that fellow over there T
He said. 'Yes.' I said: "I am almost
positive that Is a private detective that
District Attorney Whitman has assigned
to watch Rosenthal'. They took the hint
and departed and went home.'
"This testimony ot Dresner bears the
unmistakable stamp of being made to
fit Rose's testimony. It Is somewhat
remarkable that notwithstanding the ap
prehension of Dresner that something
dire was going to happen, nothing did
happen because ot the words alleged to
havo been uttered by Rose.
"While the testimony of Rose on the
trial concerning the Incident at the Gar
den restaurant was competent to show
preparation and combination on tho part
of the main defendants fpr the commis
sion of a crime, It was merely a step In
the- progression of proof and a contradic
tion ot that, even It true, would ot It
self be wholly Insufficient to warrant the
granting of a new trial,
Unveorifay of Credence.
"It Is remarkable that this witness
should be found to bo present at two
Important times; that Is on the 13th
at tho Garden restaurant and on the
Jth In Forty-third streot, at the time of
the killing. Intrinsically, this testimony
Is unworthy of credence, and If there
was any element for that conviction It
Is furnished by tho witness himself. In
asmuch as knowing the widespread no
toriety given to, the murder of Rosen
thal, and a knowledge of his part of the
Importance of his testimony, he refrained
rrom coming forward and making known
to counsel for the defendants or to the
district attorney what he l;ad heard and
observed.
"Burwell testified that when In Forty-
third street on the morning of Rosen
thal's death he heard two shots and saw
the man who fired the shots run. He
said hn did not know the man, but de
scribed to some extent his personal ap
pearance. Tho point of his testimony
rests on his statement that neither of
the four defendants was the man who
tired the shots. Burwell never saw either
one ot the four defendants and the only
knowledge he has of them was derived
from his seeing some pictures purporting
to represent tho defendants In a clipping
from a newspaper,
"it Is unnecessary to dwell for a mo
ment on tho utter Insecurity of such testi
mony as tending to anything Ilk accur
ate Identification.
"Reo testified to the delivery ot a note
from a female friend of Clroflcl at his
house. The only bearing that this testi
mony can have Is upon the Alibi Inter
posed by Clroflcl at the trial. Evidence
to sustain an alibi on a motion for a
new trial, where the alibi has been passed
upon by a jury. Is, according to all the
authorities, standing atone and unsup
ported by unquestionable proof, of little
or no value.
"This witness, like the preceding wit
nesses, did not come forward until the
last hour to give his testimony, though
he had been questioned by a deputy com
mlssloner of police, to whom he admitted
he lied In respect to the deliver) of this
letter.
"Kalmanson testified that he was In
Forty-third street, saw an automobile
and recognized Vallon standing on the
runnlnc board, holding a pistol In his
hand. He did not know Vallon, had
never seen him, and the only means of
recognition that he hod was that two
months later he saw In a Cleveland news
paper a picture purporting to be that ot
Harry Vallon. This testimony Is similar
to that of the testimony given by Burwell,
before referred to, and Is alike worth
less. This witness also maintained sil
ence until after the decision of the court
of appeals In the Becker case.
"Briefly have I touched upon the prin
cipal points In the testimony of each of
these four witnesses and In doing so
have not referred to the testimony ot the
affidavits in contradiction, not to the 1m
rresston, which was produced upon my
mind during their examination and cross
examination. That impression was most
persuasive of disbelief In what they said,
If no other circumstances existed, but
that of their silence and delay In coming
forward until the last moment, notwith
standing there existed great public ex
cltement and widespread newspaper re
ports and comments, ot which the court
ot appeals has taken Judicial notice, it
Mould of Itself be sufficient to create
grave doubts ot their truthfulness and
good fath.
"It would bs a violence to my con
"Bud" Fisher
science and Judgment to say that the
proffered evidence given by the witnesses
whom I have seen and heard would prob-
ably have changed the verdict If given
upon tho trial which resulted In the con
viction of the defendants. On the law
and the facts they have had a fair trial
and a Jury of their fellow citizens has
pronounced them guilty. The court of
last resort has unanimously affirmed that
conviction. Appeal has been made for
executive clemency and In these last mo
rents, a year and five months After tho
conviction, when tha crime Itself Is
almost forgotten and human sympathies
are deeply touched at the prospect ot
four human beings paying the highest
penalty known to the law, strenuous f
forts ara made to arrest the Judgment
of the law.
"Were those efforts directed atone to
human sympathy there would be but
one answer. But they are not directed
to human sympathy. They are directed
to an Instrument of the law whose sole
duty Is to administer Justice and no
matter how harsh It may seem to be It Is
nevertheless Justice to deny the motion."

OSSINING. N. Y., April 12. -While
futile efforts were being made In New
York City to prevent the execution early
tomorrow morning of the four gun
men convicted of the murder of Herman
Rosenthal, Kloctrldan DavIs, who directs
the mechanical phase ot electrocutions,
arrived at Sing .Sing prison yesterday to
engage In the preliminaries ot the task
set htm.
A dramatic occurrence marked his ar
rival. Just as Jacob Rosenberg, father
of "Itty Louie" Romnberg, one of the
qusrtet condemned to die In the chair,
appeared at the prison clutching a peti
tion from Rabbi Goldstein, asking for the
postponement ot the execution until next
Thursday, he met Davis. When told who
the man was the gunman's father mut
tered something Under his breath, turned
his face and rushed Into the prison. Mr.
Rosenberg saw his son for a few mo
ment. Later he was told that his peti
tion would be useless unless It could be
presented to Superintendent of 8tAt
Prisons Riley, who had Just left for
Albany.
The arrival of Electrician Davis seem
ingly put the seal of finality on the fato
of the tour gunmen,
A rumor that Superintendent Riley had
In his hands a confession from "Dago
Frank" Clroflcl, with whom ho had a
Ions conversation before leaving the
prison, was disposed of tonight by a
statement from Fother Cashin. me prison
chaplain.
The chaDlaln explained that "Dago
Frank," In whom Superintendent Riley
had taken special Interest In his over
night visit to the prison, had dictated
three pages of comment upon his own
case an distinct from the others. While
the exact text of tho statement is not
known, it Is understood that it Is not a
confession and did not differ materially
from the analysis of his case previously
offered. The other gunmen again reiter
ated today their persistent aeciarauon
that "Dago Frank" was not present ai
the time of the murder.
The' prisoners were kept In ignorance
ot the progress ot the neanng neiore
Judgo Goff and extracted what comiort
thev could from this last hope. But the
belief In an eleventh hour deliverance,
which has defied and survived the failure
of every appeal, today collrpsed. The
gunmen were sure they are gotng to die,
It was said about the prison.
