ARNOLD'S Letter
ON RUBBER BALLS
Secretary of the Atlanta Club
Writes to Kavanaugh
GIVES HIS REASONS WHY
Tells Why the Atlanta Management
Will Not Demand An lnVestiea-
ton of Use of Rubber Balls
BY Frank.

Secretary Lowry Arnold, on behalf of
the Atlanta Baseball association, has
withdrawn its demand for an investiga-
ton Of the rubber BALI charges against
Charley Frank. and has announced that
the Atlanta club refuses to pay the $500
fine assessed against it because it was
alleged that the club left the ground and
refused to finish game in New Orleans
Mr.. Arnold's letter follows:
Judge w. M Kavanaugh, President South
ern Association of BASEBALL Clubs, Little
Rock, Ark.
Dear Sir-In answer to your statement
that Charley Frank had demanded $500
penalty of us on account of the game in
New Orleans out of which grew the arrest
of Otto Jordan and the forfeiture of the
game to New Orleans by the umpire you
will recall that wrote you that at the
time the Investigation was held on that
subject. We desired that Charley Frank 8
conduct be investigated on account of
the use of rubber balls in that game as
well as in a game against the Montgom-
cry club.
You replied that you would call meet
ing of the directors to pass on the sub
ject but that you had set on foot an in
dependent Investigation of the matter, and
had not been able to find anything upon
which to base an action against the New
Orleans club" You further stated that
you considered New Orleans as neutral
point as Montgomery for hearing the
inVestigation

stage Of their career, and the finger
print system is the only means of
Identification yet devised that makes
this practicable.
Not only is it virtually impossible
that any mans ten finger-prints, one
after the other, should resemble in
mere general mathematical form each
of those of another man, the chance
against any such coincidence being
calculated by Professor Francis Gal
ton, the eminent anthropologist and
mathematician, as one hundred and
siXty-four million against one, but it
is equally impossible that any two
finger-prints should be identical in
every detail.
Recently the United States govern
ment has also adopted the thumb
print system for Identification of the
sailors and soldiers in service, as this
might become useful not only in
cases of desertion, but also to more
readily identify the bo,les of those
who have fallen on the field of battle.

Through Life-AdOption of System
for Identification of U. s. Soldiers

A few weeks ago Inspector
Mclaughlin of the New York City De-
tective Bureau received remarkable
evidence of the value of thumb-print
Identification. A letter was brought
to him through the mails from London
containing the picture and record of
a noted criminal whose thumb-print,
with his name and description, was
sent to London to test the efficiency
of this new method of recording dis
tinguishing marks of criminals. BY
means of the thumb-print alone. the
English police identified the criminal
captured by the New York police,
whose record in England includes eight
imprisonments on charges of larceny.
The prisoner was caught by Inspector
Mclaughlin in the corridor of the
Waldorf f-Astoria Hotel in April. There
were no charges against him in this
country at the time, but the Inspector
decided that his captive was an En-
glish ''crook" 1t was found that two
patrons of the hotel had been robbed
and the prisoner was detained for a
thorough investigation of his case
Meanwhile the Inspector sent the
thumb print to London and the reply
brought a photograph of the ''crook"
and a duplicate photograph of his
thumb-print and his record.
THE BERTILLON SYSTEM.
For some time the criminal bureaus
of prominent cities have been using
the Bertillon measurement system
which also includes making two pho
tographs of the suspicious character,
but the French system and photo
graphy have fallen short in many
cases, as scheming criminal can
adopt various subterfuges to cheat the
law, but there is no way of changing
the character Of his thumb-print, for
there are no two people whose thumbs
are exactly alike, and each person has
his own individual thumb-print whose
character remains the same from the
day of birth to the end.
