SPALDING WILL IS
CONTESTED BY SON
Baseball Goods Maker's Death
3 Declared Kept From Fam
X ily Until Cremation.
.SECOND WIFE IS ACCUSED
X'atlier Alleged Not to Have Been
in Right Mind for Several Years
and Undue Influence Charged
Against Stepmother.
. SAN DIEGO. Cal., Oct. 5. A. G.
'Spalding, famed as the "father of base
ball," was under the complete control
and domination of his wife and Mrs.
Catherine Tingley, lor several years
before his death September 1 last, ac
eording to a will contest filed in the
Superior Court here Monday by his
son, Keith.
One month before his death, alleges
the contest, Spalding suffered a stroke
of apoplexy, but no word of this was
conveyed to his relatives until after
his Jeath. Then, it continues, they
-cremated him fo quicklly that rela
tives had no opportunity of seeing the
body or being at the funeral.
The contest alleges that for several
years before his death Spalding was
-not in his right mind; that his mental
and physical strength was impaired by
advancing age, by sickness and by
business , worries. The business wor
ries, says the contest, were occasioned
by the loss of $500,000 in "certain dis
astrous ventures." "Worries of oth
er natures," also contributed to "his al
leged unsoundness of mind, according
to the contest.
indue Influence Is Charged.
That the will was procured through
the undue influence of his wife, "the
said Klizabeth Churchill Spalding and
M rs. Katherine Tingley" and was the
"direct result of this undue influence"
-Is the next allegation.
A fortune of 52,000,000 was accumu
lated by Spalding and his first wife,
who died in 18'J'J, according to the con
test. This, says Keith, was the result
of the Joint industry of his father and
"Another and was accumulated before
-thft second marriage, which occurred in
1900.
Up to the time of death, alleged
Keith, he was the object his fath
er's strong affection and pride. Around
the time the will was executed, says
Keith, and both before and after, Spald
ing told him and various friends that
he wished his son to succeed him in
his business and property. At these
times, continues the document, he ex
pressed gratification over the business
career of his son.
r Flint "Wife Stock Claimed.
Three-fourths of the estate consists
of stock in A. G. Spalding & Brothers,
sporting goods houses, according to the
contest, and a portion of this stock was
turned over to Spalding by his first
wife with the express understanding
that it was to go to the son Keith.
At the time of the marriage to Spald
ing, says Keith, M rs. E 1 i zabe t h
Churchill was the intimate friend of
Katherine Tingley in "a theosophical
brotherhood at Point Loma" and was
hejd out by said Mrs. Tingley to the
public and to said Klizabeth Churchill
Spalding as her successor in the com
mand of said work and institution."
Immediately after the marriage, says
the document, Mrs. Spalding persuaded
her husband to take up his residence
jvithin the grounds of the Theosophical
Institution. The purpose of this is, al
leges Keith upon information and be
lief, was to alienate Spalding from his
on.
ALLIES' LOSSES PUT HIGH

B12RL.1N, via Iondon, Oct. a. A sup

ment sa-vs that the French losses in
killed, wounded and prisoners in re
cent fiBhtins were at least 130.000, and

The German official estimate, of the
loss by the entente allies of an agsrre

the Germans had lost since the begin

"SIN" I3MAJESTIG FILM
URl ESOME, TET FA5t'lATIX, IS
I'ltTIRE ON REEL.
Series of Sflrrinf? Human Adventures
Is Herbert Brenon's Production,
sr Critic of Attraction.
"Sin,- gruesome, yet fascinating,
holds throngs of film fans at the Ma
jestic this week. Sinister, beautiful
Theda I3ara, known as the "vampire
woman of the films." is seen in a pro
duction that exceeds all her former
triumphs. A series of stirring human
adventures is Herbert Brenon's pro
duction of "Sin,"" and a composite of
strong dramatic cHmaxes, growing out
of the clash of elemental human pas
sions. Luigi is played by William Shay,
who, as the man that is lured by self
destruction, is a melodramatic char
acter of rare type. The woodcutter's
mother, Mariette, is played bv Louise
Rial. Luigi is befsothed to a fascinat
ing Italian peasant girl. At the feast
of Saint Carmel she sees Pietro. an
Americanized Italian, who begins her
career as a sinner. The plot takes
them all to America. It is here that
the faithful Luiai works out his sor
row by the theft of the Jewels of the
Madonna by which he hopes to prove
his love for Rosa.
The dramatic climax of the play is
notable. The mobs, the individual char
acters, the futility of unreciprocated
devotion and the mockery of "Sin." are
objects that leave distinct impressions
on the observer. Wherever Theda
Bara, the great French tragedienne, is
advertised -she creates a furore. She
is loved and despised by the same
people, yet she never ceases to fas
cinate. Her "Sin" is the highest form
of siren impersonation.
Along with "Sin" is Charlie Chaplin's
latest release. "Shanghaied." There is
more action, variation and novelty in
Shanghaied" than any former Chap
lin movie. In this he has created some
brand new eccentricities. The Ad Club
Quajtet will sing every night during
the week.
Civic League Department Meets.
The revenue and taxation department
of the Oregon Civic League will meet
to discuss work for the Fall today
at noon in the college room of the
Hazelwood. Suggestions as to phases
of public finance which are timely and
deserve study will be welcomed. Shall
the department resume its weekly
meetings? All members of the league
interested in taxation are urged to be
present.

NIGHT SCHOOLS Oil
WITH BIG GLASSES
Lincoln High Leads Registra
tion With 812 Students
Drawn From Portland.
2 PAST 60 SEEK TO STUDY
Americanization Course Is Popular,
but College Preparatory and
Language Aspirations Attract
Many Taking T7p Studies.
Working Portland went to school
Monday night.
And not in the history of education
in Portland has so large a registration
been recorded for the first night's ses
sion. There seemed to be no favorites
among the different schools, although
Ladd'e attendance was lower this year
than last, owing to the publicity given
the Americanization school that opened
at the Shattuck. Only last year's pu
pils returned to Ladd.
Lincoln High led the field with a to
tal first-night registration of 812, a
remarkable figure, according to the
principal, John C. Veatch. Of those en
rolled at Lincoln, all are taking high
school and college preparatory work
and the average age last night was
given at 26 years.
Ave should have at least 1500 reg
istered at this school before the close
of the term." said Mr. Veatch. Four
years ago. when Mr. Veatch first
taught in Lincoln, the registration was
only 40, a fact demonstrating the pop
ularity that the night courses have ac
quired in a remarkably ehort time.
Ameriesnfaation Course Draws.
The Americanization school, where
most of 'the foreigners of the West
Side appeared to begin their studies
of American Institutions and manners.
enrolled approximately 200 foreigners
and they ranged in age from 16 to
20 years.
One couple, an old man and hie wife.
both past the 60 mark, natives of Den
mark, inquired of Mr. Mosessohn, the
principal of the school, if they were
too old to learn the rudiments of the
English language. According to Mr.
Mosessohn, among the 200 that enrolled
there were at least 20 nationalities rep
resented. A large class was enrolled in the
salesmanship course offered to the
clerks of the city stores and in this
class both men and wemen were reg
istered. The course is offered at the
Benson Polytechnic for Girls, at Four
teenth and Morrison streets.
In all the classes that were started
last night at the girls' school there
were 385 registered, an increase of 167
over the first-night registration of
last year.
Boys Study Engineering.
Evidence that the public receives the
first consideration where night instruc
tion is concerned was demonstrated
by the inauguration of a course at the
boys' branch of the Benson Polytech
nic in the theory of operating engineer
ing, started at the request of a num
ber of students.
The course will be under the direc
tion of A. P. Towner, chief engineer
of the Meier & Frank building. A sim
ilar course will be given at the new
Benson Polytechnic as soon as the re
quired equipment Is available.
More than 200 men and boys regis
tered in all the mechanic, arts and
crafts courses started last night in the
boys' trade school. According to the
principal of the school, C. E. Cleveland.
approximately 1000 students should be
enrolled in all the courses given at
night before the close of the first
term. "Despite the fact that we will
perhaps be crowded." said Mr. Cleve
land, "we will be able to take care of
every person who desires to enroll in
any of our classes."
Registration Increase Expected.
In the two high schools and the
trade schools there was a total first
night registration last year of 1385.
Last night before all the registration
blanks had been filed 1787 prospective
night school students had been enrolled
and assigned to their classrooms. Al
lowing for the same per cent increase
in this year's final attendance, approxi
mately 1000 more students should reg
ister this year than last.
One hundred and fifteen teachers and
principals were needed last year for
night school work, although the Fall
term was started with about 60. This
year already 86 teachers have tempo
rarily received positions.

it Is this phase of the situation on
which State Department officials are
particularly desirous to obtain first
hand information.

the State Department referred to the
unfavorable impression created at
Washington by reports as to the in
crease In British exports to the North

outbreak of the war received from
Consul-General Skinner, these reports
having given figures showing Increases
in the British exports of some com

Some of the most celebrated archi
tects in the United States were the
guests of the Portland branch of the
American Institute of Architects Mon
day, stopping over for a day en
route for San Francisco for the Nation

automobiles and they did not reappear
at their headquarters at the Portland
Hotel until midnight last night.
All of the scenic drives about the city
were visited, the procession of auto
mobiles went out along the Columbia
Highway as far as possible, and at
noon the crowd was entertained at the
Automobile Club for luncheon.
Immediately after the luncheon the
sight-seeing trip was resumed, and in
the evening the spokesman of the party
telephoned in from the Waverley Golf
-iuu tuat xne crowa was being enter

Robbers Malntnln Silence.
The robbers, both of whom were of
slight build and wore black masks,
carried flashlights, but no guns. They
did not utter a word, but when sur
prised at work by Mrs. White, one of
them called the other by a low whistle.
Their plunder consisted of $2.50 and a

which makes it especially effective in cases
where the blood has become thin and weak.
