Circuit Court of Appeals Affirms the
Decision of the Lower Court in the
Case Against Charles W. Morse
Will Appeal Case to the Supreme
Court- Morse Awaited Decision in
Marshalls' Office and Was Bitterly
Disappointed May Have to Go to
Tombs While Awaiting Decision of
the Supreme Court.
(By Leased Wir to The Times)
New York, Oct. 11 Charles W.
Morse today lost his- appeal from the
jail sentence of fifteen years at hard
labor In the Federal penitentiary at
Atlanta, when the United States cir
cuit court ot 'appeals affirmed the de
cision of the lower court in lis trial
for violation of the banking law.
Morse will now have to go to jail
unless his attorney appeals to the
United States supreme court. This
appeal can be made only on the pos
sible ground of alleged constitutional
error. .
i ...-Morse was in the office of United
States Marshal Henckel when the de
cision was handed down and was bj,
terly disappointed.
Pending the decision of the tfhited
States supreme court, Mr. Morse may
have to spend Jhis time in the Tombs,
although his counsel, Martin W. Lit
tleton, was hopeful that he would be
able to effect a renewal ot hla client's)
$.156,000 Cash ball bond, With - the
consent "of the 'justices,- jfoahwhiie
remained a prisoner in the custody of
Marshal Henckel. -
Morse, accompanied by his wife
and his son,. Harry Morse, had gone
to the federal building early and re
mained together in Marshal Henck
el 's office. " -
Mr. Littleton joined them there
and remained with them until court
convened. Then he took a seat In
the court room to await news of the
findings of the judges.
The announcement, which meant
so much to Morse and his counsel,
was made perfunctorily during the
reading of a long list of decisions'.
Even one who did not understand the
proceedings, however, could have
gathered the import of the clerk's
reading by watching Mr, Littleton's
face. He changed color, arose quick
ly from his seat and left the court
room. To a reporter who accom
panied him, he said.
''The judgment is affirmed. You
must not ask me to talk about it
now."
He hurried to MarBhal Henckel 's
office, where he informed Morse of
the judgment of the higher court.
The former "ice king" received the
news without flinching. Mrs. Morse
and the son also remained calm, al
though both paled a little and it was
obvious that they were greatly shock
ed by the adverse news.
Marshal Henckel gave Mr. Little
ton the privilege of his office and af
ter an; hour and a half the lawyer
gave out the following statement:
Mr.v Morse will go to the'supreme
court of the United States on a writ
of certiorari."
"This will act as a stay .of execu
tion of the mandate of t the ' lower
court," said Mr. Littleton. "But the
question of whether Mr. Morse will
be detained in custory or released on
bail will have to be determined by the
court of apoeals. , -
"The opinion of the court 'of appeals
la -not nearly so much against Mr.
Morse as might appear. In the opinion
43 of the 53 counts on which he' was
convicted were destroyed. The court
also pointed out that .there were errors
o'f Instruction In the lower court,
"1 have advised my client not t
make any. statement for the press but
I am prepared to make one for hliu.
He is very much disappointed that the
finding of the lower court was not re
versed, we are both confident mat the
supreme court of the United States
will reverse 'the decision. 3Lr. MorBe
Is not at all cast down. He has taken
this asl encouragingly -as the other
misfortunes of the last four years.'
The -opinion was rendered by Judge
Lacombe; Ward and COxe. It con
tains 5,000 word's and is a careful re
view of the caBe and the evidence. In
conclusion it says: '-.' ,
; "W fully redli the consequence to
the defendant which must-follow an

we cannot doubt that ha was given a
fair trial, and that the verdict on the
fourteen ' counts was amply sustained.

On the Detroit Field Crowd Gath

Admission.
(By Leased Wire to The Times)
Detroit, Mich., Oct. 11 On a field
that had been deadened by a steady
rain that lasted all through yesterday
afternoon and most of the night, and
an atmosphere that vas laden wltii
moisture, whipped into tiie faces of
the exposed occupants of the (outfield
bleachers, the Tigers and Pirates re
sumed practice today for their third
World's series duel, after the two
games played at Pittsburg had left
the teskns virtually where they nail
begun, on even terms. The more
sanguine expected an attendance of
30,000.
The day was anything but favor
able to the best grado of baseball.
The chill atmosphere, the raw wind
and the wet ball were all handicaps
which itVas obvious the teams would
have to face throughout the contest.
In fact, it looked as If the chances
were about even that the game would
not be able to progress through the
regulation number of innings, or
even- to a tage where it could be en
rolled as a contest legally complete.
In many ways the day was a dupli
cate of the one which prevailed in
the opening game of the world's se
ries with the Chicago Cubs last year,
and the crowd in attendance drew
on its recollection for the details of
that harrowing combat, in which
pitcher succeeded pitcher for each
side and Detroit finally lost, after
having the game apparently sewed
tightly up.
Both teams were on the field early
and the Pirates made the most of
their opportunity to try the arena
where they were to play for the first
time. In fact, it was the first occa
sion anyone of them had ever set foot
on the Detroit lot and many were the
expressions of surprise that greeted
the changed surroundings. However,
it was generally admitted that the
playing field was just as large and
fair as theone at Pittsburg, while the
grass was naturally much . greener
and springier than of the Pirate lot,
this being naturally the case on ac
count of the fact that it is a good
many years older.
The mountainous appearance of
the Pittsburg pitcher's box waa dis
tinctly missing here, however, and
Catcher Gibson eyed the flat field
with obvious surprise.
The, purchasers of general admis
sion tickets had well known that the
supply of these pasteboards would be
limited and thousands lined up in the
small hours of the morning. The
sale did not start until 10 o'clock,
and when it did there seemed already
enough people In line to absorb the
admisison tickets. The ' serpentine
formation increased, however, at the
tail faster than it was diminished at
the head.
Pittsburg rooters to the number of
about 2,000 Invaded the city early in
the morning and most of them went
straight to tho ball park, where they
got Into the line in search of the
general admission tickets. A man
from Pittsburg named McGreevy,
who had camped at the gate of the
park in a cot for three days, was sold
the first pair of tickets, which were
for the use of himself and his fa
ther; a Pittsburg advertising man.
By noon the crowd in the outfield
began to be supplemented by holders
of reserved seats, all of which were
taken a week ago; The general tem
perament of the crowd was intensely
optimistic; in fact,' the belief existed
locally that Detroit would allow
Pittsburg no' more than one of the
remaining games of the series. To &
great extent this was due to the fact
that the Pittsburg pitched failed to
Impress thev Detroit -:, rooters in the
first- two games. l The Tigers; parti

(Statement From William Randolph
Hearst Denying That He.. Had
Pledged Himself to the Brooklyn
Jurist Says Judge Gaynor is Mis
taken or Else titters Positive Un
truth Says He Has Not Deserted
Judge Gaynor But That the Judge
Deserted His Own Principles.
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
New York, Oct. 11 The mayoralty
campaigns of William Randolph
Hearst and Justice William J. Gay
nor will open tonight in earnest. Be
fore a representative body of citizens
which will fill Carnegie Hall, Mr.
Hearst will be nominated and at the
same time Judge Gaynor will be ad
dressing a meeting in the big Brook
lyn Academy of Music.
The sensation of the day was the
statement issued by Mr. Hearst de
nying Judge Gaynor's charge that Mr.
Hearst had pledged himself to sup
port the Brooklyn jurist.
Mr. Hearst's statement follows:
"If Judge" Gaynor has stated that I
promised to support him under any
and all circumstances, and upon any
And all tickets, he states what is pos
itively untrue, I will try to assume
that he is honestly mistaken, but it is
difficult for me to do so, as the prop
osition is so unreasonable that it
bears its refutation on its face.
"Judse Gavfior'ls: not a life-lone
friend or a deepfy loved brother to
whom a blind devotion might be due.
He has been to me merely a represen
tative of certain ideas, an exponent of
certain principles. While he was
supporting those principles I sup
ported him. When he deserted those
principles I parted from him. I am
still earnestly following the princi
ples which Judge Gaynor falsely pro
fessed and it does not seem to me,
therefore, that I have deserted Judge
Gaynor, but rather that he has dis
creditably deserted both his princi
ples auu ins irmnus.
"Judge Gaynor, moreover, does
not have to hark back to any imagin
ed impression gained in private con
versation to learn my attitude toward
him. I made a public statement ot
my attitude on September 3- If that
statement was wrong, why did he not
correct me then? I said in a public
speech before the county committee
of the Independence League, 'We
will know whether or not we can sup
port Judge Gaynor when he knows
for what he stands and with whom he
stands.
"I said on October 6 that I be
lieved Judge Gaynor's opinions
would prove to be entirely satisfac
tory, but he must be explicit and
definite in the statement of his opin
ions and that he must explain ade
quately to us independents how he
was going to be able to conduct his
fight successfully from the inside of
the tiger.
"We asked for bread and he gave
us a stone. We expected a ringing
declaration of uprightness and inde
pendence. We received a grudging,
hedging, dodging expression of opin
ion, or rather lack of opinion and a
squalid suggestion that we indorse
his evil associates on the Tammany
ticket.";- .
"He invited us independents to en
roll under the stained and draggled
banners of Tammany Hall, and, in
order to elect him mayort to aban
don our opinions, our principles our
morals, our independence, our self
respect. He demanded that we tole
rate his political associates, and for
get his personal treachery. He
asked uS to be liberal, to think as the
thugs and thieves, to combine with
criminals, to support a panderer.. Of
course ; I : refused; I .; have' never
tiled ized mvself tn snmiort. .Tudare Guv
nor, but if I had I would have felt
myself relieved of any pledge by so
infamous a proposal. - '
"It is not true that I ever asked
Judge Gaynor to come to my house
in order to urge him to accept a
nomination. He came humbly up to
ray .house; once, twice thrice; hat in
hand, 'of his own accord and his Own
interest. And T have.no doubt that
he had previously Visited Mr, ' Mtir--phy's
