Chicago, Sept. 20.-Indictments were riveted against several base ball stars and confessions obtained from two of then when tho "Ohl Homan," Charles A. Coniiskoy, own er of tho oft-times champion White Sox, smashed his pennant chances yesterday to clean up baseball. The confessions told how the White Sox threw Inst year's world's champion ship to Cincinnati for money paid by gamblers. Seven Sox regulars and one for mer player comprise the players against whom true bills were voted by tho Cook county grand jury, and the seven were immediately suspend ed by Mr. Comiskey. With his team only one game behind the league leading Cleveland Indians, the White Sox owner served notice on his seven stars that, if they were found guilty, he would drive them out of organ ized baseball for the rest of their lives. Officials of Chief Justice Charles McDonald's court, desirous of giving the national game the benefit of pub licity tn its purging, lifted the cur tain on the grand jury proceedings sufficiently to show a greet hitter, Joe Jackson, declaring that he delib erately "Just tapped the ball;" a pic ture of one of the world's most fa mous pitchers, Cicotte, in tears, and glimpses of alleged bribes of $5,000 or $10,0 00 discovered under pillows, or on beds by famous athletes about to retire. Around the court room at one time or another were some of baseball's greatest leaders, among them John J, McGraw, manager of the New York Giants awaiting a call to tes tify, and John Heydler, president of the National League, who went be fore tho grand jurors during the ses sion. . .

"Shoeless Joe" Jackson, the heavy hitting left fielder. Oscar ("Hap") Felsch, center fielder. Charles ("Swede") Risberg, short stop. Ciando Williams, pitcher. George ("Buck") Weaver, third baseman. Fred McMullin, utility player. Cicotte, according to court at taches, told the grand Jury he re ceived $10,000 from the gamblers, finding the money under his pillow when he returned to his hotel room on tho night before the first game at Cincinnati. "I refused to pitch a hall until 1 got lt," they quoted him as saying. Jackson, it was said, testified ho was promised $20,000 by "Chick" Gandll, but received only $5,000. Claude Williams, according to the witnesses, got $10,000. Whilo the grand Jurors voted their true bills Comiskey, seated in the midst of his crumbling empire out nt White Sox ?Park, issued tho tele gram suspending thoso involved, pay ing off Woaver, Clcotto and Jackson on tho spot, and announced that the checks for poy due the others would r X"X?x^x~x^x?x?*<~x~x~x~x Keep Your Bloo< Nature \ Did you know that ninety per cent of all human ailments depend upon the condition of your blood?
