PITCHER MULLIN ARRESTED.
Warrant Sworn Out by Mautner, But
Mullin Was Released.

Fort Wayne, Ind, July 12.-Pitcher Geo.
Mullin, of the Detroit club, was arrested
when Wabash train arrived at the depot
bearing the members of the club en- route
from St. Louis to Cleveland. The arrest
was made on an affidavit filed by Presi-
dent I. Mautner. of last years team,
charging Mullin with obtaining money un-
der false pretenses. Mautner says he gave
Mullin $25 to bind a contract to play with
him, and that the latter made affidavit
that he had signed with no other team
and would sign with none other in consid-
Grafton of the advance payment.
When Mullin went to Detroit Mautner
made the affidavit. but the governor
would not issue requisition papers. and
Mullin could not be taken from Michigan.
Mautner yesterday received tip that Null
lin would be on Indiana soil today, and
prepared for him. The trial was brief, but
resulted in Mullins favor, the justice hold
ing that Mautner's action should have
been civil and not criminal one.
No sooner had Mullin been released than
he secured a team, and, with a friend,
made drive to town over the line in
Ohio, where he hoped to be out of the way
of Indiana justice. Later Mautner filed an
affidavit virtually charging Mullin with
perjury, but when it was placed In the
hands of an officer for service the ball
tosser was well on his way to the state
line and summons could not be served on
him.

and night
Among some of the belated passen
gers was Sam T. Howe and w. H.
Davis, Of Parkhurst & Davis, Of To-
peka, who were on their way to Color
ado on urgent business. After each OF
them adorned himself with Ed Howe's
Don't Worry buttons" they felt re-
Ieved and would have SO informed To-
peka friends if they had been close to
telegraph office, Both OF these gen
tlemen promise they will always wear
these buttons. and will take the advice
of the motto on them. and never again
"get blue"
Another passenger on the belated
train was Judge Dick Picker. of Smith
Center, judge of the Fifteenth district.
Cool and good-natured as the judge al
ways is. he passed the day and night
mingling with his fellow passengers. In
which Pickler can tell as good a story
as anybody can. He was accompanied
by John Mollison, also of Smith Center.
one of the largest bridge contractors
and builders in north central Kansas.
A lady passenger, Mrs. w. 8. Hadley,
of Wichita, left home Tuesday for Be-
lott She arrived there Friday night,
and only then by having to drive frorn
Clay Center to Clifton, to make con-
nection with the Missouri Pacific.

Sheriff Yerton, of Phillips county, was
a belated passenger. He was returning
from Oklahoma with the celebrated

over 60 hours, the hotels and lodging
houses were largely patronized by the
belated passengers.
Nearly all the passengers have related
some experience about this tie up, COM
pairing it with others of similar ma
ture, but all agree this is the longest
and in many respects the most dis
agreeable they have ever experienced.

way to Pittsburg He tarried here long
enough to have a talk with Kelley and
Robinson on business affairs. and with
"Cy" Seymour, with whom he had no
ally believed that his talk with "Cy"
was with a view of getting him to
again join the Giants. despite McGraw's
statement that he would not tamper
with the Baltimore players. Seymour
admitted this evening that he had a
talk with McGraw, but said it was not
about jun ping. Said Seymour: u
don't think McGraw would take away
any of the Baltimore players. He does
not want to break up the Baltimore
club; not this year. You know, he said
so himself"
Pitcher McGinnity is said to have
been offered $4,000 a year more than he
is receiving here to join the Giants, but
declined the offer.

A bill was introduced in the Senate
some time ago providing for the erec-
tion Of the statue in Washington to
the memory of John Paul Jones, but
il appears to have been pigeon-holed
in committee, after the manner of
many bills A statue was the other
day unveiled in the park opposite the
White House to attest to the splendid
services i'm the Revolution of Marshal
Rochambeau and France. This was
fitting: but surely it, would be much
more SO to erect a monument, and the
finest that art could produce, to John
Paul Jones, the founder of the Am
erican Navy, the intrepid American
who bearded the British lion in his
den, landed an armed force upon Eng
fish soil, and spread CONSERVATION
along the English coast. The Ameri-
canism of John Paul Jones was such
as to stir the patriotism in the heart
of every lover of the Republic to
which he gave his services.

Peace in South Africa will bring in

full gold mines of that region 1t was
only in 1888 that gold was discovered
in the Johannesburg mines. In that

was about $4,000 In 1898 it was
about S55, 100, 900, since which time
work has been practically suspended.
The gold production of the Rand
mines since their discovery has been
over 100000, 900, and expert surveys
show gold in sight" amounting to
S3, 800, 900, 900. There are also many

The commanding position of the
United States in the production and
manufacture of iron and steel is IL
lustrated by some figures published in
the London Commercial Intelli-
gence," a copy of which has just
reached the Treasury Bureau OF Sta
tistics.
The worlds total product of pig iron
in 1901, it says, amounted to 40, 4OS, 900
tons, of which the United States con-
tributed l5,S7S,OOO tons; the United
Kingdom 7,75O,OOO tons; Germany
7,663,OOO tons Russia 100000 tons;
France, 2.362, 600 tons, and the re-
mainder of the world, 3,655,000 tons.
Comparing the product of 1901 with
that of the annual average for the
iive-year period 1S65-70, it will be seen
that the United States has increased
its iron steel output far more rapidly
than any other nation, the figures be-
ing: United States, from ,464,O
tons TO l5,S7S,020 tons, an increase of
$50 per cent; United Kingdom, from
3, l33, 900 tons to 100000 tons, an in
crease of 81 per cent; Germany, from
| ,226, 200 tons to 1868, 600 tons, an in
crease of 525 per cent: and the entire
world exclusive of the countries men
toned, from 2,7l0,0 600 tons to 9,ll7,0O0
tons, an increase of go per cent. An
even more noticeable feature of this
growth pointed out by the authority
from which these figures are quoted,
is the steady and enormous growth of
the proportion of the worlds product
supplied by the United States and the
equally rapid decadence in the posi-
ton held by Great Britain. Thirty
five years ago the United Kingdom
produced practically one-half of the
worlds pig iron, while the United
States produced less than one-seventh
of the total; whereas, in 1901, the
United States stood first in it's pro-
portion of the total, contributing
four-tenths, as against less than two
tenths by the United Kingdom, and
about the same share by Germany.
In the iive-year period lS66-70, the
worlds per capita consumption of pig
iron was II pounds: in 1901, it was 81
pounds; while in the latter year the
u. 5. consumed 40 pounds per capita,
and the United Kingdom, $50 pounds
per capita.
The effect of this remarkable i'm
crease in the production of iron in
the United States has been strongly
marked in its relation to our foreign
commerce. Imports of iron ard steel
manufactures in 1882 amounted to
S67, $40, 1907 and formed 9.3 per cent. of
the total imports; in 1901 they had
fallen to Sl7,s74,7S9 and formed but
ID per cent of the total imports. On
the other hand, our exports of iron
and steel manufactures have grown
during the same time from $40, 74S, 206
in 1882, to $ll7, 800 in 1901. They
formed in 1882 about per cent. of
the total exports, and Is per cent. of
the manufactures exported, while in
1901 they formed per cent. of the
total exports and % per cent of the
manufac lures exported.
