ST. LOUIS ICE HEARING.
Witnesses Differ as to Status of Agree
ment on Prices.

st. Louis, July S0-Testimony obtained
by Circuit Attorney Sager today in his
suit to dissolve the Merchants Ice and
Coal company and the Polar Wave Ice
and Fuel company on the allegation that
they have violated the antitrust laws OF
Missouri developed the fact that meet
ing was held in May at the offices OF the
Polar wave company for the purpose of
raising the wholesale price of ice from
IS so to 81 a ton.
Theodore W. Mertens, so-called lhae-
pendent ice dealer, testified that after
comforting with representatives of the TWO
ice companies and suggesting that the
nrice of ice be raised from $3.50 to "a
ton. and meeting with no objection, ne
raised the price accordingly After that
meeting" said Mertens, II was INFORMED
that the large dealers had decided TO
charge 20 cents 100 weight for ice TO
small customers
r. A. Hoist of the Polar Wave CON-
pany on the stand said;
before April / last the price OF Ice
ranged from % to 40 cents hundred
weight for families. After that fiat rate
of 40 cents per hundred was put into ell
feet"
He disclaimed any knowledge of price
agreement existing between the different
ice concerns.
At the conclusion of HOSTS testimony
the hearing adjourned for the day. Circuit
ATTORNEY Sager announced that he intend
ed to examine only three or four more
witnesses, and would then probably ask
for recess until fall

GREAT BARON PITCHER AND THE
SHOES THAT HE WORE AND
THE SUCCESSFULLY SUNDAY A
MEMBER OF FAMOUS TEAM.

The soles containing steel spikes are
all that remain of the. pair of shoes in
which AL Mauck materially aided in
landing the only pennant that Birming
ham has given to the brezes. The soles
and the spikes can be seen in a shoe
shop on Third avenue and Eighteenth
street. To inexorable time, the uppers
have, given way. but the soles are solid
as in the days that Mauck performed
stunts throughout this southland coun-
try. Mauck has disappeared as have all
his comrades and legends of the pennant
winning days, and the shoes with the
spikes alone remain.
Mauck was a great pitcher. He worked
for Birmingham in 1892. when the Barons
won the pennant of the then Southern
league. There were but two pitchers, and
they worked every other day. Mauck's
compeer was Charlie Petty, who pitched
for the Barons in the summer, and
sweated at the rolling mill when the win
try breezes blew. Many stories are told
of the prowess of these two stars of
We olden days. Many stories are told
N the wonderful aggregation of ball
tcssers that figured In the nineties.

TON PROVED TOO STRONG.
LONG FELLOW NEVER DROPPED
A BALL IN THE SOUTHERN.

Towards the shank of the season, when
the yellow leaves are beginning to ap-
pear, the player, the fan and the scribe
tire just a trifie. But when again the
grass springs to the field, and the SHOWS
have all departed, the blood takes on a
wild romp. and the lover of the great
sport is called again to his own.
This is the case with Horseshoe"
Smith. the great right fielder of the
Baron aggregation. For eight years he
has played baseball, and at the end of
eight seasons he has decided to quit the
game. In each instance, however when
the spring time rolled around again Smith
was forced to leave the counter or his
cotton field, and HE himself again to the
diamond, with stick across his shoulder,
and a leather glove on his paw.
Now Smith says that he will quit the
game at the conclusion of this season.
He said that he had enough Immediately
after his last session in college He said
that he had enough after his first en-
trance into the professional game, at
which time he twirled a pennant for one

mediately after this statement Smith de-
clared that he had reached this same de-
termination on other occasions. too.
Smith perhaps has a record in the
Southern league. Since he has been in

ord shows that Smiths statement is true.
He yet has his first fly ball to drop. Some
of the chances taken by him have been
desperate ones, but he has not failed a
single time.

the Pelicans and the Pretzels all that
is coming to them, do not believe and
will not be convinced that the sport as

a conference with President Leland Hume

would be notified Immediately of the de-

Governor Robert B. Glenn of North
