He said he had heard of many other gambling activities of Chase's before the Magee. case.

Heydler's testimony was largely the.interview he gave newspaper men Sunday night, telling of his private investigation, how Comiskey had told him a vear ago he suspected some of the White Sox players, and how he and William Veeck, presi dent of the Clucajro Cubs,- had ob tained a confession from L?e Magee. , Amusing Incident. "One incident in Magee's case is amusing, saitf Hcydler, for while I think he tried to throw this game. he really helped win it. "In July. 1918, Magee was play ing second for Cincinnati against Boston. He came, to lyit with two out and hit an easy grounder whicli took a bad bounce and he was safe. He was ordered toMcal second and arr.bled down. When half way to second, he stopped, but Art Wilson made -a wild throw and Magee had to go on to third. He might have scored with the tying run, I think, if he had tried, but he didn't. Then Rotich knocked a home run. Mafie iiiiu tu tunic hi wiui uic tying run and Rousch's run, of course, won the arame. ' Heydler is said to have told the jcry that Magee confessed to him and Veeck that he took part in the tnruwinar of several tranies. According1 to an official in the1 state's attorney's office, the names of two brothers in Des Moines have been brought before the jury. They are. said to have placed large bets on the world's series and to have been tipped that it was "fixed." Further indictments 'against gam blers may be expected within a day or-two,it was said. The jury will not consider base ball at its session tomorrow, but probably will resume the investiga tion the next .day. Probe New V'ork Reports. New York. Sent. 29.
