LOS ANOEI.ES. CaX. Sept 12. (Spe

pitcher of the San Franclaco club, who
has been winning his games with ease,
rave that of yesterday, ta believed to
be McQulllen. the suspended pitcher of
the Philadelphia National League club,
who waa benched several weeks ago
because of insubordination.
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. .

NO REFUSAL GIVEN
Witness Says Importers All
Paid for Underweighing.
OFFICIALS GUESS WEIGHTS
James P. Hyland Asserts Weighers
Sometimes Deducted 50 Per Cent.
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.
