MAY BE A GOOD THING
Massachusetts Wants to Bring Factory
to Wichita.

NJ. Craven. of Springfield. Mass, has
written letter to Secretary Smith. of the
Chamber Of Commerce, offering to estab-
lish a big manufacturing plant in this
city, but the secretary is not going wild
over the proposition.
The Springfield man says he would
bring a plant here that will employ four
to five hundred people the year around,
and pay out not less than $12. a month.
He does not even mention the particular
kind of a manufacturing plant that he
proposes to start. but he wants the peo-
pie here TO organize a company and sub
scribe stock 20 the amount of $4,000.
Secretary Smith rubbed his fingers
across his eyebrows a few times and then
figured out that IL the plant employed
five hundred people and paid out the full
$1,000 a month for wages that it would
be just s24 month to each one, provided
the managers Of the plant were willing
to take thei- part OF the money set apart
TO pay the employees.
Mr.. Smith would like to have the plant.
but he is afraid that It would be hard 10
find five hundred people IN Wichita who
would be willing TO work for SCI month,
pay rent and board themselves. That.
however. should not discoursg &c people
from subscribing to the stock. for the less
that is paid to the operatives of the
plant the more will be left for the stock
holders in earnings on their capital.

PERJURY CASE DISMISSED.
Il Was Discovered That Deposition
Hadn't Been Sworn to.

On motion of the county attorney, Otto
Eckstein. the case against l.. c. Pat
terson for perjury in his deposition taken
in the Balm case. was dismissed by Judge
Alexander yesterday morning in the city
court.
The motion for dismissal by Mr.. Eek
stein was made owing TO the evidence
Of Attorney Amidon for the defense, and
Louis p. Ross, who was commissioned
to take the deposition of l.. c. Patter-
son in the Balm case. They testified
that the defendant was not sworn when
he gave his deposition and also that he
had not signed it, as they could recall it.
The fact of the deposition not being
sworn TO removed the cause for perjury
and the case was dismissed.
The state offered in evidence the orig
inal complaint and transcript in the case
of the state of Kansas VS. Ralph Balm.
10 which the defendant objected for the
reason that no crime was charged against
the defendant in the warrant in this case.
and for the further reason that the war
rant in this case did not charge the de-
PENDANT with any crime under the sta
tutes of the state of Kansas. The objec-
tion was overruled.
Louise p. Ross was called for a wit
ness on behalf of the state and she
testified that she took the deposition of
the defendant but that she neglected TO
take his oath, intending TO do so when he
returned to sign the deposition. She also
stated that she had given the stenogra-
pher notes and the deposition to Mr..
Amidon. on the 3lst of October and that

with improvements. Also that he has
personal property valued at N,oo0. She

SO goo. An of which she says are their
joint earnings. She AYERS that he is not
a suitable person to have the custody of
their two children, Roland. aged {. and
