Veteran Actor Very Badly a Mystery NEW YORK, Aug. 8 about 12:30 this afternoon Detectives Love and Fitzgerald of the West 100 th street police station received a telephone call from St.

Hospital. They were informed that a man had been brought to the place in a taxicab, suffering from possible fracture of the skull and concussion of the brain and that the persons who had conveyed him there were unable to account for his injuries. WAS WITH Hurrying to the place, the detectives found that the Injured man was John C. Slavin, a veteran of the musical comedy stage, and that he had been brought to the hospital by Winfield Liggett, a resident of the Club and a taxicab chauffeur. They were told that he had received his injuries in some unaccountable manner in front of the apartment residence of John J.

McGraw, manager and part owner of the New York National league baseball club, who had been his companion at a rather boisterous session in the Lambs' Club. Detective Love immediately went to apartment, which is on the fifth floor of a large building on the northwest corner of Broadway and 109th street, and he was obliged to ring the bell quite vigorously before the baseball magnate could be awakened from his slumbers. When he was admitted to the apartment the detective perceived that the Giant manager had a battered and swollen.nose and a blackened eye. The story that McGraw, Liggett and the taxicab chauffeur, whose name is William Meagan, told the detectives was as follows: Slavin, who lias played Irish comedy parts with DeWolf Hopper, Lil- In the worst riot this State has known since the Tech outbreak, hundreds of sailors, marines and soldiers, armed with rifles, bricks and stones, besieged the Metropolitan Park police station on the Revere boulevard last night in an attempt to free and arrested sailor.

Little Saver, 3 years old, blew soap bubbles again yesterday at the home of his mother, Mrs.

The Savers are separated. Residents of the neighborhood. Saturday shoppers, and two police officers engaged In the fracas which ensued when Mrs. Saver attempted to wrest her son from the arms of Samuel Saver, son of the dentist by a former marriage. It has been stated erroneously that the son was the aggressor.

At the East Dedham street police station Mrs. Saver produced a copy of a court decree allowing her custody of the child, and he was given over to her. The mother told a Post reporter yesterday that little was taken from near home a week ago last Tuesday. She has been separated from her husband. She learned later that had been taken to her home.

She watched the house until her little son went out for an airing with his stepbrother, then she seized him. The police were called and turned the boy over to his mother. Samuel Saver, the son. told the Post last night that his father had obtained a decree of divorce from his stepmother last month. He declared that this degree annulled the court order of 1919 giving Mrs.

Saver custody of little Joseph. Dr. Saver had five children by his first wife and two by the latest Mrs, Saver. There is a lot in how we arrange the ups and downs of life. Keeping up and holding expenses down is the common-sense rule for everyone who expects to make definite progress.
