This is an of ficial statement. After long conferences with officials on both sides one of the men present at the conference in the Piedmont hotel 'ante out of the room and gave the following statement to the press: After conferences held late last night and today, the prospects seem more fa vorable for a. settlement and termina tion of (he. strike than at any time since negotiations have been under «ay.” Dr. Neill Confirms Settlement Report. Dr. Charles P. Neill, United States ommissioner of labor and mediator in the railroad troubles, was shown this statement He confirmed it. This was tie first time Dr. Neill had made any statement or confirmed or denied any ether statement for publication. Upon insistent questioning, those at the conference said the strike probably would be adjusted to the satisfaction of both sides within 24 hours; traffic prob ably would be fully resumed within 48 hours. No terms of the. agreement were riven out. I'he strike on the Georgia road be can just twelve days ago.

Gambler Jack Rose look the stand at the trial of Police lieutenant t'liar ts I.' io r for tne murder of lit r- I I tnan Rost mhal today, and -v.oie that | the police official had ordered the as sassinauon. This was the climax of sensational testimony, in which Rose had revealed his own relations and those of Rosenthal with tie man now now on trial. Coming to the crucial point .of his testimony. Rose said: “Becker said to nn . 'I want that man (Rosenthal> ended-for all time to come. I want him eroal-md, shot, mur dered o: dynamited. I could beat him up myself. All I would have to de would be to raid him and belt him up foi resisting arrest. You don't sup pose 1 would ask you to go into any thing where you would be taking a chance, do you? There is no chance for any one who has a hand in murder ing Rosenthal. You can assure Zelig and bis crowd there Is absolutely no danger. You know I have made good in everything 1 undertook. You know that men have been croaked before by policemen I want you to go and see Zelig. Tell him I will take care of that Case of his for carrying concealed weapons. Explain to him about Rosen thal. “ Show him the danger he and hi: gang are in from the Rosenthal squeal. Ask him to issue an order to some of his gang to croak Rosenthal tonight.’” “Big Jack” Zelig is the gang leader who was shot to death on a Second avenue street car last Saturday. Went to Tombs To See Zelig. Rose then went on “J then asked Becker if he cared if 1 took Harry Vallon with me. And when lie said ‘No’ I got Vallon out of bed and we went to the Tombs. Becker said as I was going, 'Be sure, if possi ble, to have it done tonight, and then by tomorrow it will be all over.”’ Zelig at this time was in Jail for car rying concealed w-eapons. Rose con tinued : “When we got in to see Zelig. the first thing I did was to hand him SIOO, saying 'Becker sent this to you Ze llg replied. 'I don’t want any money. I want to get out of here. You and i Be ’<v“i got me into t on a frame-up I and you promised to get me out.

Meyers Again FailstoHitin a Pinch. _ j , By “BILLY” SMITH. r - BOSTON, Oct. 12. The Red Sox this afternoon won the fourth I aanie of their series with the Giants. Following is how the game was I played : FIRST INNING. Jusi liciOic the teams get away in their tii’th struggle, a 25-foot section of the center field railing gives way with an awful noise and lets a hundred or so fans come tumbling onto the field. The drop is a short one and nobody is hurt. Before they have time fairly to pick themselves up. the teams are away. It is a big surprise to the fans when Bedient takes his place on tire slab for the Red Soj. They have felt that Collins was due. Bedient makes a v.Toteired start. The first four hurls are called bulls b\ Umpire “Bill" Evans and Devore gets on. Doyle lifts a sky scraper to Lewis. Snodgrass then spoils it tor New York by hitting into a double play and he, Devore and the side are retired. Wagner to Yerkes to Stahl. No runs, no hits, no errors. Hooper gives Matty a torrid recep tion by swiping into the first ball pitch ed for a single, Yerkes laces into the second ball sent him for a fly-out to Kletcher. Speaker slips a single just short of Devore, and Hooper moves on to the keystone. Lewis waits out a few and finally stings one to Herzog, who forces Hooper. Then, with the whole thing depending on Gardner, lie falls a victim to the Old Master and fans. It is corking work lor Matty. Two hits, no runs, no errors. SECOND INNING. Bedient gets away badly in the sec ond, with three straight balls, which is exactly what he gave Devore in t-he first half of the first. Merkle pushes one down to Gardnei and is out to Staid. Murray gor-s forward a base on this Herzog pops to Yerkes. Mey ers hits a mighty wallop, but Hooper Is under it No runs, no hits, no errors. Stahl smashes one hard to Pletcher and retires to Merkle. Wagner finds a ball to his liking and pushes it short of Murray for a single. Cady out. Math ewson to Merkle, on an extremely fee ble grounder. Tins moves Wagner along to second, where he expires when Bedient grounds to Doyle and is out to Merkle. Matty seems to have settled down to his regular stride. He Is let ting them hit. but lie seems able to tighten up in the pinches. No runs, one hit, no error®. THIRD INNING. Pletcher lifts to Hooper The Peer less Matty shows that his talents aren't entirely confined to the hurling end by smashing a sing e to center. Devore, W’ith “three and two” on him, lets the deciding one slip by and Bill Evans calls it a ball. Doyle skies one to Speaker but of course there is no ad vance. Snodgrass fouls to Cady and another good chance to score goes glimmering No runs, °ne hit, no er rors. Hooper sets the ball rolling for the Red Sox with a triple to left. It was a ferocious wallop. Yerkes follows, and on the first ball Matty slips him he mauls It for three sacks, scoring Hoop er. Matty looks old and rather wan and worried as he faces Speaker It appears that he Is "grooving ’em," and if he is and can't quit it his time on the slab will be limited. Speaker taps an easy one down to Doyle and the Na tional league’s automobile winner errors |lt miserably Yerkes scores, and ; Speaker is nabbed at second, from .Mur ray to Pletchei , v hen Tris tries to get an extra base on the error. Lewis grounds to Matty and Is out to Merkle. Gardner rolls one to Merkle and Is out at first. Two runs, two hits, one error. FOURTH INNING. Mui raj skies to Yerkes Merkle takes three straight strikes and Is out Herzog after fouling one to tile right field bleachers and another near Cadv, lifts one to Stahi. No runs, no hits, no errors. Stahl swings wildly on the first ball pitched him and grounds to Herzog, who nails him to Merkle Wagner drav thtec straight strikes Cady hits at toe II st hall pitched and Is out to Spoils a- tmii fi r lia' 1 -’ ate pitched >x Mat bew “on In Hint innmg The old DOT® L j\. jo. a J >\/ t YY| 2 CENTS EVERYWHERE bo.v is getting to look good again No uns, no hits, no errors. FIFTH INNING. Meyers gets a hit to open the fifth inning, but he has to work for it. After two strikes and a ball have been called on him. he swiped four fouls in a. row. 1 Then a second ball goes over. And then Meyers meets it squarely for a single to left. Pletcher balloons one to Hoop er. Mathewson fails to duplicate hit 1 previous hit and fans. Devore pokel - out a liner that backs Speaker way up, 1 but tlie Texan gets it. No runs, one ’ hit, no errors. • As the game has been prog e?«fng the fog has gradually blow n and burned 1 away and now there is only a mild haze. > This is a big help to spectators and to ‘ outfielders, wffio had heavy going > through the fog at the start. Bedient lines one, to Merkle that spins him around, but he hangs to it. Hooper grounds to Doyle and Is out to Merkle, i Yerkes grounds to Fletcher and Is out i to Alerkle. It is another good inning tor the Giant pitcher and if his team i mates ever solve the delivery of Be dient, which they show no signs of do > Ing, he may get a victory. No runs, no i hits, no errors. SIXTH INNING. Doyle grounds sharply to Yerkes and , is thrown out to Stahl. Snodgrass, aft er taking a strike, lifts to Gardner Murray fouls to Gardner. Up to thi tlme Bedient’s showing has been Ut most impressive of any pitcher in th entire series. The Giants are as help 1 less as school boys before him. He ‘ seems to have swell curves, excellent 1 control, a good change of pace and a peck of confidence No runs, no hits, no errors. ' Speaker bounds one down to Doyle and goes out to Merkle. Lewis stings one on the ground to Herzog and is out at first. Gardner slips one on the ground to Merkle and is out. It’s an other fine Inning for Mathewson. If the old boy had started tike this, rhe score would be a tight tie No rune, no 1 hits, no errors. ’ SEVENTH INNING. Merkle puts a dent In the Red Rox defense by smashing a two-bagger to ’ left Herzog, with two strikes on him. ’ lifts a pop-up to Wagner. Meyers, the plnh boob, files to Speaker. Merkle hugs second base until the ball lands in Speaker's hands and then beats ft for third. McGraw then takes a chance. Instead of sending In Fletch- • er, McCormick is put in to bat—and he does bat, a grounder to Gardner, ! that no living man could have han ‘ died. Merkle scores on this hit. Shafe- Is put in to run for McCormick and of 1 course will go to short. Mathewson ’ grounds to Gardner and is out to Stahl. One run. two hits, no errors. Stahl goes out, Mathewson to Mer kle. Wagner grounds out, Shafer to < Merkle. Cady is out. Herzog to Mer i kle. No run®, no hits, no error®. EIGHTH INNING. Devore fans. Doyle hits to Stahl, i who makes a pretty stop. Snodgrass I fans. No runs, no hits, no errors-. ■. 1 Bedient filed to Snodgrass. Hoope' ' out. Shafer to Merkle. Yerkes flies oui to Herzog. No runs, no hits, no errors. , NINTH INNING. 1 .Murray flies to Gardner. Merkle flies - lo Speaker. Heizog out.
