BASE BALL BITS OF LOCAL INTEREST There is a strong rumor about town which won't down that Sunday ball playing may soon be a reality in Cam den, that the game will be played on -one of the enclosed grounds and backed capitalists who believe it would be -a paying venture. Secretary Koelle has been approached by two parties who want secure a control ing interest in the Twelfth street grounds, but who were refused because they wanted it mainly for Sunday ball, "The "secretary of the Camden club -states positively that "there will be no Sunday ball playing on the Twelfth street grounds so long as the present management Is connected with lt Not muclrv doubt but that it would result In great crowds and big money could be made, but it wouldn't be for the best Interest of the city to have the game on the Sabbath, and the owners of the grounds do not desire it Conditions governing the downtown grounds are somewhat different; Their location Is not as good asb.eiflwjetfth street grounds, though It Is -argud that people who want to see base ball play ed on Sunday will go almost any dis- tance to enjoy themselves.

But these grounds are also controlled by the Camden club, so it is hard to see where the game could be played unless new grounds were built. This would mean a big outlay of money with a strong gamble that the authorities would step In and stop the first game attempted. The Sunday ball playing agitation all over the State seems to have struck this city, for it is rumored that there will -probably be some. State leglsla-tlon on this point in the next session.

The attendance has picked Up as a result of ball playing and all the games played since the 'Squire's regime have been of the highest quality; and at the same time Camden must still receive its first defeat under Davfs' guidance Believing that a team making a good showing should be given another trial the 'Squire has scheduled Chestnut Hill for a third game next Saturday. Each team has won a game, 3-0 in favor of Chestnut Hill, and 4-1 In favor of Cam den, so that the deciding game should be a corker.

Adubato Is one of weve police department men who are under indictment for non-feasance. He was indicted at" the same time that' three commissioners, the late- Chief Adams, Captain William P. Daly and Jacob Serlba and several minor officials were charged with the same offense.

He de clared to the board yesterday that he Is unable to: do" efficient police duty owing to the antagonism and constant insults of persons with whom he Is obliged to come in contact. When City Counsel Nugent advised against granting a leave of absence, Adubato exclaimed: "If you won't give me leave of absence for a few months, why don't you suspend me the same as you have others who are under indictment It has been said that I want to go Into an other business, but that Is not true. I want to get a chance to prepare my caaejor trial, "If you are anxious to get out, why not asked Commissioner Har-rigan. "No, a man would be a coward to resign under charges such as I am under if he knew he was innocent," re plied the policeman. Commissioner Castle, who is also under indictment, but is still serving, ex pressed the belief that the board acted inconsistently in not suspending all the officials under charges.

The board concluded to lay Adubato ajjpllcatlQiuive The Prudential Changes Its Plan of Doing Business.

Link had escaped the German Jail he was confined In and bad returned hM.byajroundabautJwayt bent on murder all the time, as the police believe: Their theory Is that Link, animated by hatred for those he blamed for his trip to the Fatherland, broken out of the Kaiser's prison and haaworkedaaytost-oi-muan priyatlon, back ta hls former home. Here he found bis wife before he could trace the others he hated, and, in a sudden blaze of anger, he ended her existence and his own. Incidentally sacrific ing a third life In killing -the-woman.

The trouble in the Link family dates from the time Link opposed the marriage of hla daughter Theresa and John Hasse. In spite of paternal objections the girl married the man of her choice. This led to a bitter hatred between the two men, with the result that Hasse is said to have informed the United States Immigration authorities that-Llnk-waa wanted for counterfeitng in Germany, An Investigation was immediately ordered, with the result was deported. He blamed his wife, as well as his daughter and son-in-law, for the complaint. It is said that he escaped within three days from the German Jail to which he was committed.

He sailed to Canada and worked In various cities and towns there. Gradually coming toward this city, it Is said that Link spent several weeks in Boston, yesterday he arrived in Brooklyn and went to his old borne, nfiaruia works, at Jrwenty-sec ond street and Third avenue, Brooklyn, where he had been employed before his deportation. In his absence his wife had moved to No. 147 Twenty-third street, where she was managing a boarding house in order to support, herself and her son Joseph, who is 12 years old. Link's first Inquiries as to the whereabouts of his family proved unavailing, but he met his son Joseph In the street.

As soon as he recognized the boy he demanded where Mrs. Link could be found. The lad, not suspecting that any harm would come to his mother, took his father to the new home.
