Mitchell became a man of mystery as soon aa he joined the Seals, and the most noticeable action on his part waa his avoidance of the camera, and re peated refusals to poae for pictures, an uncommon thing for a young "bush leaguer." as he represented himself to be. on breaking Into the game. In order definitely to Identify Mit chell. If ha la McQulllen. all that should be necessary would be to place him be fore Harry Wolverton. manager of the Oakland team, who knows the real McQulllen. and the question would be quickly established. Phil Cooney, shortstop of -he Portland team last season and now with Spokane In the Northwestern League, also knows Mc Qulllen. and the Fan Francisco club. If It desires to establish the Identity of the player, could send his picture to Cooney and have the matter settled. The Reals had better establish the chap's Identity, for,' In case he is a "ringer." all the games in which he baa officiated will be thrown out. and the San Francisco club will also be subject to a heavy fine. .

Says He ' Received Half of "Rakcoffs" on All Duties. NEW IORK. Sept. 13. As the corol lary to the statement, made recently from the witness stand by George T. Lunny, alleged go-between of Import ers and Government weighers In brib ery operations, that he had never known a weigher who would not ac cept a bribe. James P. Hyland, formerly an assistant weigher, testified today that he had never met an Importer who refused to .pay for underweighing. Hyland was the chief witness of the day in the trial of George E. Bedell and other ex-customs officials on charges of making fraudulent weights. He said he sometimes took off 60 per cent from the weights and sometimes did not weigh rargoes at - all, but merely guessed st the weights. Hyland In Office Eight Years. Hyland was ssslstant Government weigher from 1891 to 1909. On the stand, he was asked If he had ever done any underweighing.. "I underwelghed the very first cargo I waa assigned to weigh," was the re ply of the witness. He said he con tinued underweighing from that time on. receiving most of the corruption money from "Big George" Lunny, who has been described in the testimony as the "go-between" for importers and weighers In bribery operations to se cure underweights. Toe underwelgh ers always got half the amounts of the duties out of which-the Government waa defrauded. Hyland testified. Hyland said that at one time he was not satisfied with the amount of his "rake off" at one dock, and offered Be dell ISO a ship if he would have him transferred to a more fruitful field. The transfer was made, the witness testified. Bedell was chief clerk to Deputy Surveyor Vail. He paid Bedell, on the average, just what he promised to. Hyland declared.
