STILL FUSSINC.
Owners Of Glass Works and
Laborers Cannot Agree.
Five Big Plants in Montgomery
County Closed.
WAGE SCALE TROUBLE
Manufacturers Want Further
Concessions by Men.
About 1000 Are Employed in
Various Shops.

Independence, Dec. 31.-After all
the announcements of the glass plants
at Coffeyville and Caney going to start
sure on December rs. and all the
hopes that have been raised in the
hearts Of workers and the merchants,
it now develops that none of them
are likely to start in the near future.
At a meeting held in Caney at which
two Coffeyville plants and the three
Caney plants were represented, it was
decided not to start until the union
men made further concessions, or in
other words. until they agreed to the
Columbu scale.
c. J. Huffman. foreman Of the Cof-
feyville plant, was in Independence
and in a conversation stated that in
his opinion none of the four plants
represented at the Caney meeting
would start soon, If at all this winter.
It all depends upon whether or not
the men will stand another cut in the
wage scale after the Cleveland scale
had been agreed to.
The manufacturers have all along
commended for the Columbus scale.
while the workers have demanded the
Cleveland scale. A compromise was
finally reached, and many plants have
gone to work under this compromise
scale. But the manufacturers claim
that they cannot break even on this
scale and now the five plants referred
to above have repudiated it. The
workers claim, on the other hand,
that the plants can be operated at a
profit on this scale.
The cooperative plant here and
the one at Coffeyville are the only
ones in the west that are in blast.
There are nine window glass plants
in this county, and they employ about
1900 men at good wages. The finan-
cial panic, more than the wage scale,
is delaying the operation of these
plants.
Fires had been started in. most of
the plants represented at the, Caney
meeting.
A number of Chanule men with
their. families had moved to Caney
expecting the work to start up.

The signal corps already have a
supply of captive and free balloons.
Proposals have now been issued ask
ing for the dirigible balloons, for
which bids will be received up to jan

posals will be issued for a heavier
than-air machine.
The dirigible balloons asked for

poses of observation. The specifica-
tons require that the army balloon

A FARM PHONE LINE.
Montgomery County to Be Supplied
With Rural Lines

Independence, Kan, Dec. 31.-Farm-
ers of the vicinity of White Post In
this county are determined to have a
telephone route. At recent meeting
a number of resident farmers agreed
to form the nucleus of a telephone
company by putting phones in their
houses and each building his mile of
private line.
Jefferson and Lafountain, where mu-
tual telephone companies have already
been organized, were represented, and
wanted to join in with White Post and
form a strong organization covering a
lot of territory and having Independ-
ence for the objective point of their
lines.
They want to control their own line
and expect to merge all the farmers
mutuals in this section of the county
into one strong company where every
farmer owns one share of stock and
has equal voice in the management of
the system. Then they hope to be able
to get reasonable. contracts with both
the Bell and Home companies and get
on the Home switchboard at this place
at a reasonable rate.

CHEsBRo QUITS "sPITv' BALL.
Says the Freak Delivery Has Ruined
His Pitching Arm.

New York, Dec. Slack Chesbro
father of the spit-ball has decided to
give up entirely the freak delivery that
will be back with the Yankees next
good year without the aid of the wet
curve. He believes that the spit-ball
ruined his throwing arm and says that
no pitcher can use it successfully for
more than two or three years.
When Chesbro came back to the New
York team last fall he did not work
the splitter" at all. He devoted his
practice entirely to the old curves he
relied on before the advent of the new
one. He says that in a few weeks he
began to notice the difference in his
arm. The old suppleness of the wrist
and forearm returned and he began to
throw easily with his old free delivery.
Chesbro's manner of delivering the
damp fling" he believes. put him out
of the. class of great pitchers. 1t is
essential in using this curve that no
twist be given the ball. 1t is permitted
to slide smoothly off the dampened
fingers. In order to accomplish this
perfectly, Chesbro threw the ball with
wrist and forearm stiff and straight.
He says that the constant strain of this
set of muscles eventually untitled him
to throw any kind of curve.
That the spit-bail is harmful to the
arms of pitchers had been the theory
of McGraw and other wise baseball
men. but some of the twirlers who de-
pended on it largely insist that proper
ly used, it is no greater strain on the
arm than any other curve.

Kelly and Papke Go Ten Fierce
Rounds at Milwaukee.
First One and Then the Other
Has the Advantage.
SPECTATORS PLEASED.
Taking Battle Clear Through
Papke a Trifle Ahead.
Kelly, a Little WObbly in the
Ninth, Ended Strong.

Milwaukee, Dec. 31.-Hugo Kelly
of Chicago and Billy Papke of Spring
valley, Ill, fought ten fierce rounds to
a draw before the Badger Athletic
club Last night.
Both fighters started in hammer
and tongs fashion at the first tap of
the gong using right and left with
frightful effect. Kelly knocked Papke
down the Spr1ngvalley boy taking two
of the count. The first round was
easily Kelly's. The second round ended
with hOnors even, Kelly seeming to
have the first half and Papke evening
up matters in the last half. In the
third round Papke drew blood from
Kellys right eye and Kelly in turn
jabbed Papke's. also drawing blood,
the round ended with an even break.
The fourth round was easily Papkes
he having fioored Kelly with a vicious
right to the body following this up
with rights and lefts to face, with
good effect and drawing blood freely.
The fifth was fast and furious for the
first half both fighters easing up to-
ward the end. Kelly seeming to have
the better of the round.
Both men bored in with rights and
lefts to the head and body in the sixth,
Kelly uppercutting with good effect.
Papke slipped to the floor in the round
but recovered Immediately without
losing any ground.
The seventh was Papke's, Kelly be-
ing pretty we'll winded at the end of
the round. In the eighth Kelly did
considerable clinching and seemed
very weary but at this point the hon.
ors were a stand off. The fight in the
ninth looked very much like a de-
cision for Papke. who had Kelly very
wobbly from a fusillade of rights lefts
and uppercuts to body and head, the
gong alone saving the Chicago man. In

COAL MINES BUSY.
In Usage County the Work Is Being
Rushed Hard.

Scranton, Kan, Dec. 31.-Not for
years have the mines of Usage county
been so busy as they are at present
Hardly miners enough enough can be
found to carry on the work. And the
wages paid too, are perfectly satisfac-
tory to the men. There is a great de-
mand for coal all over central and
western Kansas and Oklahoma and the
work at the mines is being pushed.
The sole drawback is the scarcity of
cars. Business is SO good with the
Santa Fe that they are unable to fur
nish enough cars.
