Dodgers Still Lead;
Phillies Trail Along
The slender margin of one game
still keeps Brooklyn in the van in
the gruelling chase of the National
League pennant. The leaders had
to win yesterday to retain their
place in front, for a defeat in the
face of the Phillies' victory, the
champions, by virtue of the lesser
number of games they have play
ed, would have taken the lead. Bos
ton, winning twice, gained half a
game and now stands three and
one-half games behind Brooklyn.
The Phillies still have nine
games to play, three with Brooklyn
and six with Boston; Brooklyn has
remaining eight games, one with
Chicago, three with Philadelphia
and four with New York; Boston
has eleven left, five with New York
and six with Pat Moran's men.
The situation is such that New
York, In fourth place, still has a
physical chance if it can keep up
its great winning streak. Mc-
Graw's men are six and one-half
games behind Brooklyn, with ten
games to play. The standing of

police, was a widower and had been
very friendly with Mrs. Bclzer.
From cards found in Mrs. Belzer's
handbag the police at first believed
she was Mrs. J. C. Lo Dur or Le Due.
The wounded woman in the hos
pital, at first supposed to be Graveur's
wife, has not made any statement.
Mrs. Apman will go to the hospital
later In the day to see if she can
Identify her.
Mrs Apman told the police that her
brother became acquainted with Mrs.
Belier about two years ago. He had
given her much jewelry and the couple
had taken many long automobile tours,
usually registering at hotels as man
and wife. Recently, Mrs. Apman told
the authorities, Graveur became less
attentive to her. Mrs. Apman also
told the police that Mrs. Belzer had
assumed the name of Le Dur and later
changed It to Le Due, and used the
first two Initials of Graveur's name.
The girl in the hospital is described
by the police as younger and prettier
than Mrs. Belzer, who also was a
pretty woman.
Staggers Screaming from Room
Graveurs and the wounded woman
motored to this city yesterday from
New York. They attended a theater
last night and returned to their hotel
half an hour after midnight. They
were unaccompanied, according to
hotel employes, and went immediately
to their apartments. Shortly after
ward guests on the same floor were
startled by four shots, and rushing in
to the hallway they met the woman
registered as Graveur, who is about 23
years old, staggering from her room
with a bullet wound in her breast. She
was screaming hysterically and it was
impossible to secure a coherent story
from her. Graveur was found dead in
one corner of his room and Mrs.
Belzer, clutching the still smoking re
volver in her hand, in another. All
were fully dressed.
How Mrs. Belzer gained entrance to
the apartments occupied by her vic
tims is not known. Neither has it
been established from whence she
came. The police theory, however, is
that she followed the Graveurs to this
city from New York. Mrs. Belzer was
about 25 years old.
The other woman, who was removed
to a hospital, was still alive at an early
hour to-day, but physicians hold out
little hope for her recovery. She was
hysterical throughout the night and
efforts of the authorities to obtain a
statement from her proved futile. New
York ollicials have been requested to
help clear up the mystery.
Victim Widely Known
Prison Welfare Worker
New York. Sept. 27. J. C. Graveur
was well known here in polico and
humanitarian circles. For ten years he
was chief probation officer of the court
of special sessions. He was removed
from that office in 1911. He origi
nated the Tombs Prison school and
gained a reputation among prison
workers throughout the country.
Through his connection with the News
boys' Home he was a familiar figure to
newsboys and bootblacks from the
Battery to Harlem. His home address
is an uptown family hotel.

meetin of the general committee at
my offices last night chairman of the
twelve sub-committees reported. In
nearly every case they met with sur
prising success. They found senti
ment generally favorable to the enter
prise and most of the Rotarians want
to have a hand in it- The club will
have an excellent showing to make
when it reports to the committee of
the Chamber of Commerce on Satur
day."
Another meeting of the Rotary
committee will be held Friday eve
ning at Mr. Musser's offices. By that
time it is believed a complete round
up of the club will have been made
and work on outside solicitation be
gun.
Names for the new hotel continue
to be suggested. To-day brought one
from a well-known Harrlsburger as
follows:
"Names galore have been suggested
for the new hotel to be built in this
city. Somo are good and some are—
well that's up to the committee.
Nevertheless it shows the natives are
having the time of their life trying to
name the hotel. I wish to add an
other name ta the list, one which has
been overlooked—The Blue Ridge
which would harmonize with It's
surrounding for the hotel, it being
virtually located at the foot of the
rMfa of mfiujitalna of that samj,"

Opening Races at Lancaster
Fair Bring Easy Money
to Victors
Lancaster, Pa., Sept. 27.—The first
day's races at the opening of the Lan
caster County Fair attracted a big
crowd of people. The 2.2 3 pace
brought out a field of ten horses, but
it was practically only a fight for place
among Dexter, Prince Pointer and
Helen Harsh. The 2.17 trot was an
tasy money proposition for Bertie
Chimes and Abdell.Penn, but in the
first and second heats the New Jersey
mare won out on!y by a nose from
her only real competitor.

for his arrest were heard and the
court fixed 2 o'clock this afternoon
for the purpose.
The young brakeman, according to
his petition, was arrested upon com
plaint of A. L. Hoffman for attempt
ing to defraud his boardingliouse
keeper of a board bill of between MO
and SSO. He was haled before Alder
man Kramme and despite efforts of
himself and his friends to persuade
the alderman not to send him to jail,
the young prisoner was sent to prison.
Says Warrant Was Illegal
In the request for the w,rit this
morning, however, Penner 'declares
that not only was the commitment
made out incompletely but that there
was no specific information made and
that the warrant itself was not
properly drawn.
The request for the writ of habeas
corpus was the only high light in a
rather routine session of September
court this morning.
In No. 2 room, Joseph Osborn, one
of the Southern negroes who had been
arrested in Rteolton for carrying con
cealed deadly weapons got a $5 fine
and four months in jail. And in Im
posing sentence Judge McCarrell
again called attention to the deter
mination of the Dauphin authorities
to break up the practice of lawless
ness especially by law-breakers who
come into the county rrom other
places.
Just Time For One Thing
Osborn's story, briefly was that'he
only carried the gun because he fear
ed that fellow-negroes were intent
upon 'shootin' him UD." Upon the
night of his arrest, he said that some
one had been shooting at him and
that he had to run.'
"Didn't you look to see who was
shooting?" demanded Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Fox.
"Thcah wasn't no time, suh, to do
but one thing, suh," gravely observed
the prisoner.
When the Gain* Was Good
"What was that?"
"Keep right on a-goln' while the
goln' was so good, suh," replied Os
born.
Just before court adjourned for
lunch Heilman Banks and Harrv
Palmer were placed on trial in No.
1 room on a charge of robbing Paul
Faraway. Other cases disposed of In
cluded:
Belton Bosser, carrying concealed
deadly weapons, $lO fine and seven
months; William Gallagher, indecent
assault, $5 fine and three months;
Paul Kerman, larceny of a Ford car
from Hershey creamery on two oc
casionf!, Huntingdon reformatory;
Martin G. Green, assault and battery,
acquitted.
