ATT'Y CARTER WINS CASES Successful in Suit Against Abraham Lincoln Fraternal League of America, a Corporation. Special to The Freeman CINCINNATI, O July 20, 1916—In the Municipal Court of the City of Cincinnati, Attorney Wm. Arnold Carter, the judge, presided over the ham Lincoln Fraternal League of America, gained nine judgments against the league, aggravating $1,000 in damages to members. The decision in these judgments virtually say that all monies paid in as dues by the league are returned to them at once. This arises because of the fact that the promoters with the laws of Ohio in providing with the laws of Ohio in the perfected and made and provided. The testimony of the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of Ohio was to the effect that no monies were paid in. 5,000, no papers of any nature as required by law filed in his office, nor paid to promoters authorizing members. The sum taken in as dues from the various members totals nearly $400,000. The sum paid by the organization posed of by three promoters chiefly. The members know who these three promoters turned to the members. The law provides that all monies taken in as dues must be organized by the organization "trust fund" until the organization is perfected, as required by law, and if not perfected by the organization said dues must be returned to applicant members, and cannot be spent for any reason, not for forthcoming within fifteen days criminal proceedings will be instituted and dues not forthcoming within fifteen days. The penalty for any embezzlement by an officer of a fraternal order will be three to ten years in the penitentiary. The promoters of the Abraham Lincoln Fraternal League are John D. Davis, Rev D. W. H. Davis, M. E. Zion Church (St. John), lately transferred to Chicago; Jacob L. Faison Oliver Moore, Luke Edinburgh James H. Moore, and T. Moore. The men most prominent in effecting the attempted organization and who handled the dues and initiation monies, assuring the bureaucracy of every respect legal and above all suspicion were John D. Davis (white) and men knew differently. Others of the promoters dropped out when, in the various supreme board meetings, it was plainly evident that the organization's men were using the money illegally. The winning of these nine suits not only shows Attorney Carter's ability to step higher in the ranks of his profession. Not alone has he had glowing success on the court, and he has stepped higher in his criminal practice as well. Many accused of crime, whom he has ably defended, have been found not guilty. Many others, while others, by his strong defenses, have had their penalties lessened. During his practice of five years he has been accused of trying as many as four a day. He secured for a client the largest lump sum awarded attorney in the Hamilton County Courts. He now has pending a damage suit for death by wrongful act for 400.00 and a civil right action for $400.00.

CHI, Bands must cease play in America, games are in progress, according to ruling made by President Johnson. A protest made was the result of a Umpire O'Loughlin stopped people in the Indians' park. People come in and say Mr. Johnson, "Music is all right while the innings, but not JOHNNY EVERS DON'T CARE FOR UMPS. Johnny Evers tells about a run-in he had with Umpire Rigel at St. Louis and the fight that ended. Louis always rode me there," said Evers, laughing. "They never seemed set up on me. They'd call me a crab, but I was annoying, but I paid no attention to them. "Finally, one series we were playing on the sixth inning, to the ninth inning and we Cubs were ahead something like 7 to 1. It was continuing but still those fans continue to ridicule. "Two were out and none on base in the ninth when came to but, O'Connor was watching, and Rigler was behind him, umpiring, it turned toward those fans, and, in an odd way, he was watching. "Like a flash Rigler was on me. Get out of the game," he ordered. I was amazed. O'Connor took off his mask. "T say, nobody heard that but you and me, Rigler. Can't help it, answered Rigler, he can't get away with that stuff when I went to the club house. "Out I went to the club house, although two were out and we had the fans, and I went away I heard those fans yell, joyously. "Aha. So you got it at last, ea? Aha!" JESS WILLARD GETTING TOO FAT TO FIGHT. Jess Willard, according to those who have seen him elevating the circus, has been the champion of his retirement from the roped arena. The heavyweight champion of the world is rapidly qualifying to fill the position of the top position of fat man of the side show. Willard is now said to scale 300 pounds, and he is boxing with his sparing partners that the management is considering the advisability of applying a Maxim silencer to the big fellow's breathing apparatus. Not only are Willard's efforts at boxing marveled at by the onlookers, but he has also helped the champion, but even the kindness of the management in cutting the rounds seems easy. He helped the matter to get appreciable advice. Experts in training estimate that if Willard started to fit himself for a championship contest it would take him from getting to get into ordinarily good condition. Therefore, as a boxer, Willard is the only man with minimum physical standpoint his size has some compensating features. He has been frequently the case that the champions of various lighter classes have outgrown their divisions, but he has not been the instance on record where the champion has outgrown the heavyweight class. BOXING NEWS OF WACO, TEXAS Boxing in Waco is getting on the boom since the first arrival here of the new promoter and promoter, who has been running a club at San Antonio the past two years, Levett, or Black Corbett, as chairman on a tour in April. He whipped Jamaica Kid in six, then again in five, and on a tour of fans were so anxious to see him in action that he was called back from Cleburne June 19th to box FuEd Edwards who refused to fight on in the tournament. Jamaica Kid still clamoring for another chance, was substituted, and Levett gave him the worst drubbing of all and could easily outmanipulate out. On Friday night, July 21, Billy Brewer, the much heralded battler against Levett at the Majestie Theater, largest White theater here, and the three of the scheduled eight rounds: Round 1—Brewer rushed viciously to the left, Levett knockout, Levett fought carefully, sizing up his man and dodging some terrific swings. Round even. Round 2—Brewer's leads by ducking and jabbing severely to nose and mouth, crossing right to left, and puts him down for count of 5. Levett's round. Round 3—Brewer mix fiercely in ground. Levett working lightning left hook. Brewer takes count of eight. On arising Levett knocks him on and he takes the fatal count of ten. Levett is in great shape and will win. Jno. Bashara, 200 S.

NEW YORK, July 23—Freddy Welsh sawed two championship champion lightweight of the world when he licked Ben Leonard at nashington park, Brooklyn, last week. There wasn't a sign of a tango step in any one of the ten rounds. It was tap dance and all the round - the third - Welsh won all the way. But he showed a little of Abe Attell, Battling Nelson and son and daughter, to turn the ball. Benny was no slouch. It was the old story of science, punch condition and experience a sweet sunny moment on a younger vigor. There isn't a man or woman of the thousands who saw the battle who does not believe that he can win. He weight crown on his well-shaped pate some time in the future, if he doesn't spot it. Benny's good enough now to quit learning. For the first time in a decade of moons New York's fight experts agreed up by both men, the title holder's championship ability and the challenger's championship possibility. Their condition at the end showed that. Welsh THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER. throughout, showed every evidence of his realization that he had a lot to live with. He was a swat and craft step, showed he wholly realized his opportunity and remembered he was fighting a champion whom he had beaten on points in a fierce battle. The first three rounds were riots. At the start of each and throughout each both boys obviously tried themselves to win, but the result was very much what physics teachers tell us what would happen if that irresistible force ran down that boy. Billy Roche was a lot more skittish and worried and did more tangoing and backing off than either of the two boys had to keep away from the showering stairs. In the fourth both slowed down, but apparently not because they were tired. Neither was puffing and each was in firingling, especially when the other landed. BATTLING BALL-LEO PATTERSON DRAW. ST. CHARLES, Mo.-Leo Patterson, of Joplin, and Battling Ball, of St. Louis, fought six rounds to a draw at the game before 3,500 fans. It was the largest crowd each boy has ever fought before. It was an open-air bout, which brought the crowd from miles away. About a thousand lanes witnessed the show and were sure given a run for their money. Both boys sparred in a general arena ship, manned by punches who were landed. Fans from St. Louis were over in automobiles, street cars and train. Doctor Jackson, Colored, examined the ring and for the big bout. They were cheered after leaving the ring and will be rematched at the club again in the near future. They out a scratch. They did not loaf one second. Both were anxious to win. LINE DRIVE IS THE BEST HIT. Fly Ball Is the Least Valuable, as it Is Rarely Muffed. CHRISTY MATHEWSON HAS A NEW JOB. Will Resurrect Cincinnati Reds If He Desirable Field. It's fine to hear a player talk that way of his boss. Stallings I consider McGraw I consider by far the greatest manager of all time. Evers thought qualified him to lead a successful campaign. I have been a dozen years and more in the McGraw school and did not absorbed by this time much of the art of the master. No other circumstance gives me greater heart to assemble a manager. I might talk at length on McGraw's virtues, but that would be exposing me to the dangers. If there's anything to the adage "Like master like slave," I may not be too vain in expecting to get anything done. Herzog will surely be a great factor in immediate improvement of the Glants pennant chances. But for Charlie will have a chance each day to exercise his offensive and defensive Friends of mine have raised the point of Herzog's possible attitude to the Glants that Charley and Mac might not full together even as well as they did.

They think, perhaps, that Herzog's try, managing the relationship, will not submit to another's discipline. Now, I hold just the opposite view. When I met Herzog, I before he and McGraw had many differences. That Charley was in the wrong he has admired and should go back to McGraw. Herzog once confided to me, "my behavior toward him would be better than it was when I learned a valuable lesson since I assumed the management of the Reds. A new amount to anything." This confession was made long before it was ever dreamed that Herzog might return to New York. Sallee Adds Strength. Sallee, too, should be of wonderful assistance to McGraw the rest of the team, but he will be with the Giants instead of the left-handed pitchers in the league, but he will be with the Giants instead of the Giants about two games of every Cardinal-Giants series and managed to get the Giants to win. Getting him off the opposition should make half a dozen games difference to the Giants each season, and that is a chance in a race so close s the present one. It's a pity, in view of the prospect that the Yankees have been pursued by such persistent bad luck. The loss of a pitcher is a major mitigation of a succession of disasters that would have taken the starch company any but a game and resourceful club. ```markdown ``` Anderson and Golns are in Indianapolis this week at Keith's.

By Z. L. Breedlove.) All over this country our people are coming more clearly into the realization that our self has been his greatest enemy, preventing much progress in many lines of our human activity. The Negro business and professional men means unity. In all sections of the South the United Sates employment service is securing colored men for railroad work and other labor in the North. These men are the workers of the places heretofore occupied by the immigrant labor from Europe. The war has taken a European laborer of the land, and the circumstance gives the Negro his chance. If the Negro can displace the Italians and the other public works in the North, it will be a big economic advance for the Negro. The colored laborer now touches chance, will he measure up to it? What is wrong with our city? We have any number of organizations, but we cannot make good citizens of our people.
