Players Go Dack Quickly.
Once a ball player gets on tho down
ward path he travels fast. The career of
Tim Flood well illustrates this philos
ophy. Tim came forward three years
ago with lots of noise, and when ho
was appointed manager of the Saints
the next year he had reached tho pin
nacle of his baseball fame, for to be
manager of the A. A. Is a more im
portant position than that of an or
dinary warrior In tho majors. Tim's
managerial career was bitterly disap
pointing, and he not only lost that Job,
but also his second base position with
tho Saints. Last spring he was sent
to Little Rock and was then trans
ferred to Chattanooga when tho fran
chise was purchased. Now comes tho
Information that Chattanooga does not
want him nnd that ho will play this

els Held by Collector.
HAS MUCH MORE TO EXPLAIN.
Following Charge of Smuggling, tho
Wealthy PoughkeepWe Soolety Wo
man Muit Tell Where She Bought
$100,000 Worth of Ornamenti.
Now York, Aug. 30. Jewels said to
bo worth $100,000, belonging to Mrs.
da F. C. Adrlance, society leader of
Poughkeepsle, nnd wife of I. Reynolds
Adrlance, millionaire mowing machine
maker of that city, havo been seized
by Collector Loeb.
Mrs. Adrlance was held to $7,500
ball for her appearance before the fed
eral grand Jury on the specific charge
of smuggling Into the United States
JS.000 In pearls, lace and Jewelry, selz
.u under spectacular circumstances
upon tho nrrlval of tho White Star
liner Baltic here Sunday.
At the same time there passed Into
the possession of customs officers the
other gems snld to total $100,000 In
value, regarding which Mrs. Adrlance
must make a satisfactory statement
at a hearing Thursday afternoon at 2
o'clock. These gems were first taken
as security for Mrs. Adriance's appear
nnce before Commissioner Alexnnder.
her detention having taken place on
Sunday afternoon when It wns not
possible for her to obtain ball.
Collector William Loeb, Jr., viewed
this "forfeit" and ordered its seizure
until the time and place of the pur
chases should be established nnd evi
denco given that nil duties that could
he assessed legally had been paid. All
this Jewelry was In Mrs. Adriance's
possession when she went abroad sev
en months ngo to Join her dnughtcr
Marlon, a student in Rome. Some of
the Jewelry, It is known, wns bought
in New York, but more of It wns pur
chased abroad, It is said, and Loeb
will require proof that It did not come
Into tho country as did tho necklace
seized on Sunday.
In tho event of conviction, Mrs. Ad
rlance on tho charges so far advanced
will bo liable to n penalty of more
thnn $20,000, beside the flno that may
be fixed by tho court. Tho law pro
vides that smuggled Jewelry shall be
forfeited, the duty at tho rate of CO
per cent shall bo paid and n specific
penalty of 50 per cent shall be as
sessed. On the necklace, which Is val
ued at $0,000, forfeiture, duty nnd pen.
nlty would aggregate $12,000. On the
gold nnd silver mesh bags seized at
the samo time and which are valued
at $100, forfeiture, duty nnd pennlty
would aggregate $S4Q, On tho lace,
which Is valued at $5,000, forfeiture,
duty and pennlty would reach $0,500.
a total of $22,010.
No case in tho long list of sensa
tional developments since Mr. Loeb
took charge of tho port of New York
has created such a stir in official clr
cles as this.
Among officials there was llvelj
speculation about the source of the In
formation upon which Special Agent
Wall based his insistence that Mrs.
Adrlance prove that she had nothing
In her possession except what she had
declared.
"Nobody shall know," he said. "This
source of information is my stock In
trade. If I divulged it I would sacri
fice what valuo I have to tho govern
ment. My wife wanted to know this
morning, but she didn't find out."
It became known, however, that
Wall's Information regarding Mrs. Ad
rlance camo from the samo persons
who had put him on his guard against
former Governor Rollins of New
Hampshire, who was arrested on a
charge of smuggling a short time ago.

REFCRS REFUSE
TO SUPPORT BERRY
leadlngMGnlnWIIIIamPennParly
f-oi Republican Stale Ticket,
l&peclal Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Aug. 30.
The most significant and Impo tant
development of the state campaign
thus fai If found in the refusal of
prominent nnd potential men In thf
William Penn Party In this city tc
support the Berry-CaBej Democratic
combination od tht Keystone Part
ticket.
The fact that thousands ot voters
who havo been allied with reform
movements Intend to support the full
Republican state ticket. Including tho
nominees for congress, has necessitat
ed tho withdrawal of the William Penn
Party from the field, and the men who
are behind the Berry candidacy are
now seeking to marshalthelr Falstaf
fllan outfit under the banner of tin
hybrid Keystone Party.
At a meeMng of the city commlttc
of tho William Penn Party a few
nights ago, when that organization
went out of business for this cam
palgn, memhers of tho committee very
frankly admitted that a large percent
age of the citizens who havo been vot
lng the Penn ticket aro Republican1'
In national and state affairs, whll
voting Independently In municipal con
tests. It was acknowledged that they
Intend to support John K. Toner and
all of his colleagues on the Republi
can state ticket, and leading reform
ers of the type of Thoodoro Justice,
John C. Winston and others who have
been among the heaviest contributors
to local Independent movements are
out In public declarations of their pur
pose to stand by the Republican state
nominees.
Cannot 8tano a Gryanlte.
Not only will Mr. Tenet and his as
sociates rerelve the support of this
element, but they will also have the
votes of thousands of Philadelphia In
dependents who might under cer
tain conditions back an independent
Republican for governor, but who un
der no circumstances would support a
radical Bryanlte Democrat like Berry.
The loss of those two elements of
the reform forces has completely do
moralized tho soldiers of fortune who
are behind the Berry movement, fol
lowing the attacks of Democratic poll
Uclans upon whom they confidents
counted to stand by Berry.
The aggressive campaign waged for
Senator Grim, tho Democratic noml
nee tor gowrnor, has resulted in a
lining up of the Democratic workers
In the regular Democratlo organize
tlon. Democratic leaders who were
expected to be for Berry have com
out for Grim, In order to retain their
Btandlng with the Democracy. Where
they have failed to do so they have
been asked to resign or been expelled
from Democratic committees.
Eugene C. Bonnlwell, Berry's cam
palgn manager, threatened with ex
pulsion, has resigned from the chair
manshlp of the Delaware county Dem
ocratlc commltteo.
While tho Berry Democrats and the
Grim Democrats aro fighting among
themselves reports from nil over the
