JANUARY WINS
HIS FREEDOM
His Release Will Be Hailed
With Acclaim on All
Hands
Special to Evening Teller.

/ Special to Evening Teller.
LEAVENWORTH, Kan, July 1S.-
! John William January, the modern
/ Jean Vatican, whose arrest and re-
! turn to prison last spring attracted at
I tention throughout the country, is to
be given his freedom tomorrow in &C.
cordance with the terms of the pardon
granted by President Roosevelt on the
advice of Attorney General Bonaparte.
/ 1t was in 1895 that January was
convicted of robbing a building at
| saltwater Okla, that contained a
postoffice. He was sentenced to five
years In the Federal prison at Fort
he escaped after serving three years.
After working through Kansas first
as a Quarryman and then as travel
ing salesman, he went to Kansas City,
changed his name to Charles B. An
derson, and married. He engaged in
several kinds Of business, finally be-
coming proprietor of a restaurant, and
was well respected,
M <apAA GVs l1SlJ uS was
through information furnished by a
former convict who had known him
prison. On the day Anderson was re-
turned to prison a movement was be-
gun by the Kansas City newspapers
to secure his pardon. Three days later
petitions bearing 10000 names were
forwarded to President Roosevelt.
Within another two days second
batch Of petitions was sent to Wash
ington bringing the total number of
signers to 10000. Many prominent
persons were among those who recon-
mended a pardon. On the strength of
these petitions and the evidence fur
nished that Anderson had led an hon.
est and upright life after his escape
from prison, Attorney General Bona
parte recommended to the president
that the sentence be committed to
three months from the date of the re-
arrest and that he be pardoned at the
end of that time.
on his release from prison tomor-
row Anderson will be met by his wife
and 3-year-old daughter He has al
ready announced his intention to re-
turn to Kansas City and engage in
business.

Will FIGHT
MAIL ORDERS
Organization to Be Perfect
ed to Combine Against
Eastern Firms

SPOKANE, Wash, July 1S.-Mall
order houses operating from cities in
Eastern and Middle Western states
will be made targets for a lively battle
if the plan proposed by three of the
leading retail organizations in the
Spokane country is adopted at a mass
meeting in this city July 27. 1t is
proposed to raise a large campaign
fund, part of which has already been
subscribed by merchants in eastern
Washington and oregon, northern Ida
no, western Montana and southeast
ern British Columbia, to drive the in
vaders out of the country.
The call for the meeting was issued
TODAY by a committee composed of T..
w. Evenson, secretary OF the Inland
Empire Hardware Dealers associa-
ton; Philip Carbary, secretary or the
Inland Empire Retail Dealers asso-
citation, and George e. Merrill, presi-
dent of the Western Retail Lumber
mems association. The home industry
committee of the 10000 club Of Spo-
kane, Of which Fred IT. CASTOR Is sec
rotary, has been invited to join the
movement, which gives promise Of be-
coming the most far-reaching CAM
paign ever attempted in this part Of
the Pacific Northwest.
We allowed our members to be
robbed by the Transcontinental rail-
roads through rate determinations, be-
cause we were powerless to make a
fight before the interstate commerce
commission act became a law" said
Mr.. Evenson, "but we will not stand
for that sort of thing from the mail
order sharks, and in this we will have
the support of every retail merchant
in territory of 10000 square miles.
We have practically put the itinerant
buggy peddlers out of this field, and
the fellows who make quick delivery
clerks out of Uncle Sans carriers will
follow in the same route"

people cali development" Of the site
for the making of great summer re-
sort. No Peter the Great or oriental
copqueror ever built a city out Of
hand with more lavish expenditure or
such magnificent engineering plans for
shaping land and sea as will be put in
to effect at Long Beach. To make 1t
pay at all it will be necessary for great
numbers of people to go there; but
that they will go, steadily all through
the summer, and that adequate means
for moving them back and forth VIII
have to be provided, is regarded as
certain. The direct effect will be to
make for safety. Any kind of house
can burn, but it takes a long time to
burn down such buildings as will re-
place the old-fashioned structure. New
York is not the only place where the
new order of things is coming in. Near
Cape May a man is seooping up the
sand from a marsh and piling it up on
beach to make it bigger where he
intends to put up great number of
solidly constructed buildings; and he
has gone so far as to get Congress in
terested in a scheme to help him with
his scooping so as to make a COM
mercial harbor.
Not everybody, of course, wants to
go to big hotels or to cottages held at
a rent sufficient to buy a suburban
home. But hereafter, in greater degree
at least than heretofore, big is going
to mean safe; and such regulations as
government may see fit to enforce need

modern combinations of capital and

vulcanized rubber Of certain size,
weight and bounding capacity If the
rubber is a bit N. G. the ball turned
out will be poor one. In fact, dur
ing the process of evolution from the
rubber sphere to the nice snow white
sphere tied up in the box, measure
ments are taken seven times. After
the rubber has passed the test it is
buried in four-ply yarn which must
pass muster for size, weight, strength
and cleanness. If the yarn is oily,
extra weight viii be added which will
cause damaging results. After a Ger
tair amount of four-ply yarn has been
used, the sphere is cemented, then Civ
en- a coating of three-ply yarn, cement
ed once more and a two-play yarn is
wound around. The cement is again
used. This cement must also be of a
certain standard.
| The next step in the manufacture Of
a league ball is the addition of camels
hair, fine and strong. The ball is then
subjected to heavy pressure and is
moulded into the proper shape and
size Then it is ready for it's cover.
Horse hide is generally used to cover
the yarn, and experts say the hide
must satisfy certain tests, and that
the only leather that will answer the
purpose is horse hide properly treated.
The two parts to the cover are sewed
by hand, and the man with the needle
makes the hole for the thread as he
sews. League balls receive 121 stitches
| and it is claimed that the total number
of stitches never varies more than one
or two from this number. The ball,
now sewed up isn't ready for use yet,
but must go through more operations
before it is shipped away to the ball
players.
In the making of the balls used on
the sand lots, of course, there isn't as
much care used but the operations
are practically the same, although the
material is different. 1t is fact that
hundreds Of Springfield women use up
some Of their spare time at home sew
ing the cheaper grades of ball. and
it is figured that within the last ten
wears more than three thousand
Springfield women have taken part in
the work. The cheaper grades Of
balls are not sewed in the factory, but
are let out here and there giving en-
poyment to people who are physical
ly unable to handle anything much
heavier than a 25-cent ball. Higher
priced and league balls are all stitched

balls in a Springfield factory, includ-
ing all grades of balls, is 100000 a

FACTS about BASEDALLS
NUMBER OF THEM USED
Some Statistics for a Season
in the Connecticut
League.

1t probably never has occurred to
you as you sat On the bleachers or
grandstands that an enormous number
of baseballs are used every season by
the league clubs, college mines and in
dependent clubs, Some expert out west
ventured to guess that thirty thousand
nice white balls were sent to their
doom in one season by the sixteen
clubs Of the American @and National
leagues. No one has attempted to guess
how many all the other mines through
out the country use in one season, and
nothing but a guess could be secured
by him who scouts for the statistics
BUT for those who want to get half
I'm sidea'' 1t may be stated that any
league club, major or minor uses from
twenty to sixty dozen of balls in one
season. The majors use more than the
miners, hut he is certainly manager
for sn all details who could tell you
the exact number of balls which his
club uses in one campaign. The man
ager huys his balls much cheaper
than you think he does, and he will
probably figure by the dozen when he
takes the census of his supply of am
munition. His unit is the dozen, and
though he is not tossing the globes at
the srsrrows, he'll be satisfied ifs he
/kncws that he has so many dozen on
hand, says writer in the Springfield
Repi t!ican.
In the Connecticut league about
twenty dozen season is the average

though some of the teams may use
even twenty-five or thirty dozen, de-
pending probably in part on the

Industrial Alcohol.

In considering the consequences Of
the abolition of the tax on denatured
alcohol much stress has been laid on
the Importance to the farmer Of the
ability to utilize the waste product OF
his own fields. with cornstalks and
cobs or with other material of little
value the farmer viii be able to make
alcohol, and with the tax-free alcohol
so made he will be able to light his
house, pump water, run his thresh-
| ing machine and his automobile. Prof
! Duncan In Harper's Magazine for
August calls attention to the vast
number Of other people who will be
benefited by cheap alcohol
Alcohol used as a solvent, enters
Into the manufacture Of every kind
/ of wooden or metal article requiring
varnish or luster. Celluloid cellulose,
and collodion are made with alcohol.
With the removal Of the tax billiard
balls, piano keys, combs, smokeless
powder artificial silk, Photographic
films, mantels for incandescent gas
lamps, transparent soap, anaesthetics,
refrigerants, dyes, and countless
other articles will be made more
cheaply After September list, all
cohol becomes free from tax. This
does not mean that the price to the
consumer will be reduced immedi-
ately. That result will come soon in
the case of articles not controlled by
trusts and in the others will come
more tardily, but inevitably, since the
Increased profits will make it possible
for independent manufacturers to
force the trust prices down.
Important development Of Amcri-
can industries is sure to follow. The
removal of the tax will have a slim
ulating effect. At present this coun-
try produces dyes to the value OF
only s2,50o,OO0 annually, while Ger
many exports surplus of $30Oo0,OOO
after supplying the home demand.
The total value of fine chemicals pro-
duced in this country is only $1,000,
600 year, while Germany exports
ten times as much as that And yet
the only advantage Germany has in
these lines is In tax-free alcohol.
IA revolution in heating and light
ing methods is another result anticl-
pated. European countries have
large variety of alcohol lamps and
stoves to choose from What has been
an expensive luxury here, the chatting
DISH will become an economy An in
direct result will be the lowering of
the price Of gas and electricity
through the pressure of competition.
The removal of the tax on alcohol
has done more to increase the wealth
of the country than any other legisla
tive act for many years, both in in
creasing the purchasing power of |
money and by giving value to sub
stances which were wasted.-Chicago |
