serves Pardon.
Wife and BABY
HOVER AROUND PRISON
Escaped Man Who Weds and
Leads Exemplary Life Re-
arrested After II Years.

washington, April go President
Roosevelt, in a note to the depart
ment of justice. today, expressed an
opinion that John William January.
of Kansas. should have his sentence
commuted at once, or else be par
doned outright.
January is the man who escaped
from the federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth, Kan, nine years ago,
and after living a useful life during
that time, was arrested a few days
ago and returned to prison.
January was sentenced to five years
in the federal penitentiary at Leav-
enworth for a postoffice robbery in
Oklahoma territory. For three years
January, who was 22 years old, was
a model prisoner and his sentence
was commuted from five years to
three years and eight months.
With only eight months between
him and freedom, January escaped
| one night. The next day Charles w.
Anderson made his appearance in
Kansas City. Finally he found a po-
sitton in a restaurant.
Then seven years ago he met and
| married a 17-year-old girl. They
lived devoted man and wife. To
her his life had always been exem-
plary. Then a baby came.
That was three years ago. AS the
little girl grew up Anderson worked
| harder and saved money. Finally
he started a restaurant of his own.
Saturday, as he started to look for
another place of business, he was ac-
costed by two men.
January, we want YOU" they said
They were detectives. January re-
| ceived the blow calmly. II will &c
\ with YOU" he said simply, and walk
| ed between the detectives to a car.
There was a knock on the door OF
| the matron's room Saturday night. A
| small, dark-eyed woman, leading q
little girl, rushed In.
What is wrong?" she screamed, as
she looked at Anderson.
In all the years of their married
! life he had not said a word thai
would lead his wife to suspect him
| The little girl looked on in surprise
as the mother and father sobbed
| BE brave, Charles" sobbed the
| wife, land remember there Is a wife
and baby who will always believe in
you"
| The handouts were fastened on the
mans wrists and Anderson started on
| his way to prison

Washington, April 30.-Although
very little noise is being made about
il. the government is now conducting
a series of Investigations covering the
operations of the largest industries in
the United States. This information
leaked out today and created no mild
sensation among the trust lobbiests.
that arel stopping in Washington.
Sugar. steel, oil, tobacco, or at least
the trusts that are supposed to con-
troll the production and sale of the
articles named. are all feeling the
probe of the federal trust buster.
The trust buster is Herbert Knox
Smith United States commissioner of
corporations.
The bureau of corporations is the
publicity agency of the government;
1t collects evidence upon which fu-
ture prosecutions are based. This
was what was done i'm the case of
the beef trust and of Standard Oil.
The bureau of corporations, or more
properly speaking, the commissioner
of corporations, started the ball roll
ing and Standard Oil was hauled
into court and indicted on more than
a thousand counts. 1t was upon evil
dence collected by the commissioner
of corporations that the beef trust
found itself confronting prosecutions
in the courts of the land.
Tobacco Trust.
President Roosevelt once designat-
ed the tobacco trust as a bad trust
The tobacco trust became unpopular
some years ago. 1t was charged that
1t ran it's small competitors out OF
business. During the national cam
paign the tobacco trust got into some
sort of tangle over political contri-
buttons. 1t was charged that the

any money bearing the odor Of nico-
tine. All of these things were bad
enough for the tobacco trust, but its
worst piece of luck came when its
operations were subjected to the close
scrutiny of the government trust
buster. The trust buster is not pro-
ceeded in his work of inquiry by
brass band. He wears gum shoes,
and is so smooth that he can walk
over a piano board a mile wide and
not strike note. The tobacco trust,
which is engaging most of the time
and attention of Commissioner of
Corporations Smith, feels assured that
its business methods will soon be
laid bare to the public and it does
not relish the thought.
Sugar Trust.
Two or three years ago the COM
missioner of corporations began look
ing into the methods of the sugar
trust to ascertain Just how that COM
bination was enabled to control prices
and regulate the output, in fact, TO
ascertain just how much sugar, an
article of every day necessity in every
household in the United States came
to fall into the hands of what prac-
tically amounts to a monopoly, and
if such monopoly could be broken or
controlled by the laws on the statute
books. The announcement is made
that the report of the commissioner
the sugar trust will soon be given to
the public. Whether a suit in the
courts will be instituted remains TO
be seen.
Standard Oil.
Although it is not generally known,
Standard Oil is still under investiga-
ton by the Commissioner of corpora
tions The report on that concern
forwarded to congress a year or so
90 haA TO do alx~ Wit q rail- nj :
to the railroads. Commissioner Smith
is now inquiring into the manage
ment and conduct of Standard Oil.
the cost of production, the influence
of the pipe line as a factor in mono
poly building, and export and do
mestic price of the product. 1t Is
stated on good authority that dis
closures concerning Standard Oil
more interesting than those that have
gone before will be made.
The inquiry into the steet trust,
while we'll advanced, will not be COM
pleted for some time TO come.
Cotton Exchange.
In addition to his inquiries into the
industries named Commissioner Smith
| is conducting an investigation that
| is being watched with great interest.
Just before congress adjourned
| resolution was introduced i'm the
house authorizing an inquiry into the
operations of the New York cotton
exchange. At the same time an APP
plication was made to the postmaster
general for the issuance of a fraud
order against the New York instit-u
| ton. The house resolution was sup
posed to be directed solely against
| the exchange. but Commissioner
Smith construed it otherwise. He de-
cided that the resolution was aimed
at all exchanges and associations
dealing in cotton, and he proceeded
| accordingly. This inquiry will be
broad in its scope. 1t will extend
| from New York to New Orleans.
Whether cotton exchanges actually
deal i'm the product, just what influ-
ences are brought to bear about
fuctuating quotations i'm the market,
and other questions are embraced I'm
the investigation.

AR MI GTON MANS
LIFE SAVED BY BUCK
SKIN HAT
Special to The Evening Citizen.

Special 70 The Evening Cltlzen.
Pennington, y. NJ, April S0.-That
a buckskin hat saved John Wurtz, a
san Juan county farmer, his life one
day last week. developed at a trial
held here before Justice Pearce Fay.
Wurtz had a water right to the
Echo ditch, and because he cut the
ditch and let water out on his land,
c, r. Thompson, who cOntended that
Wurrz had no right to do so, struck
the latter over the head with a
shovel. Though the blow knocked
Wurtz down and cut a long cash in
his scalp, ii is believed that he would
have been killed if it had not been
for his hat, which is buckskin, of his
own make
Thompson has been arrested on the
charge of assault with deadly
weapon.
The case at which the facts were
developed was a suit brought against
Wurtz by Thompson charging him
with the malicious cutting of an ir-
rigatiOn ditch It also developed at
this trial that Wurtz had papers
showing his water rights on the Echo
ditch

Bio Revival at Mend on.

The tabernacle meeting at
Mendon in charge of Evangelist
A. B. BOX, with his siager
Prof. Rollins, is attracting no
little attention. People are com.
ing from Triplett, Rothville and
surrounding country until the
tabernacle, with seating capa.
city Of 500, has already proven
too small and another large tent
has been ordered from Kansas
City which will be joined onto
the one now in use.
The meeting has been charact.
lied with large crowds and great
Interest rom the very beginning.
Many have been led to Christ
and many more are ready to
make the start. A spirit of deep
conviction rests upon the entire
community. A great revival wave
is evidently to sweep over Men.
don. Rev. Book and Prof. Rollins
have proven very popular with
Mendon people. The large con.
gregations hang with intense in
terest upon the burning words of
the evangelist. His condemn atian
of sin and exalattion of Christ
are without apology.
The morning service last Sun.
day morning. devoted to the
young people, was a meeting OF
great power. Nine persons
sought and found Christ. TIE
afternoon meeting for men was
a great meeting. Between 200
and 300 men were present. 1t
was a great serme n at the even
ing service. The tabernacle
overflowed and many could not
get in and went away Many
stood outside the tent during the
entire service although it was a
very cool evening. AS the meet
ing has sc arcely more than begun
it is expected that the attendance
will increase on to the close. Il
has been a number of years since
Mendon had great revival,
and the people of all churches
are entering into it with hearty
corporation and united efforts.
The results will doubtless be felt
for miles around. Every man
in the entire country should hear
Rev. Book next Sunday after.
noon at 3 O'Clock to men only.
It will be q great service.
