"As the recognized head of the organization." Throughout the morning's grilling the Colonel was very pettish and answered sometimes sullenly. Roosevplt's first letter to Senator Piatt was written from Oyster Bay October 21, 1S08. In It the Colonel said: "I am not responsible for language quoted. I have never used discrimination against any man because of race, birth place and religion. I have always treated every man according to his merits."

Judgo Landls said: "Do you realize that a de cision In this caso may tear down tho very foundations or this game so loved by thousands and do you realize that tho dcclson might nlso scilously affect both parties?" Several similar remorkH woro made dur ing the trial by Judge Landls, who Is an ardent baseball fan and a dally spectator at the games of all three major league clubs In Chicago. It Is believed that Judgo Landls realized that It would be better for both sides to teach an agree ment and, with his advice, reorganize nnd recon-,,lu',.t the national ag?fcement so that a like situation would never again present Itself. According to Information received to day Judge George Williams, of St. Louis. a personal friend of Judgo Landls and magnates of both warring factions, was asked to Intercede and bring about a peaco settlement within a certain length of time. The Federal League would then withdraw Its suit nnd ask that It be stricken from the court iccords. Judgo Williams went to Chicago and after talk ing the situation over with Judge Landls.
