ADDIE JOSS 9

Highlanders, nearly put Harry Bay
out of the business one day during
1906.
Buck" has splitter" that
breaks like an outcurve, only a
good deal faster. Bay, who crowds
the plate when hitting, and who
grasps the bat with hands spread
apart, swung hard on one of Orth's
offerings.
The ball, instead of going where
Harry thought it would, took che
of those crazy shoots toward Bay
and struck him on the forefinger of
his left hand.
Naturally the ball did not travel
very far, just going over Orth's
head and so slow that it was an
easy matter for Deerfoot to beat
the throw to first.
Bays finger received the full
force of the blow and he was out OF
the game for a couple of weeks
This was one of the times where a
man made base hit with his
| finger.
Probably no pitcher in the bust
ness has a better splitter" than big
Ed Walsh, the famous White So,
twirler. He gets wonderful breal
on his spit ball"

out a superior at his place on the
diamond, and his detection from
the Highlanders meant a large
money loss to that team. 1t also
meant a fragrant defiance Of the
big leagues. This, 1t is said, was
what really sent Harry Pulliam and
Ban johnson to the coast and made
them stay in conferences at this
city until all hope of real peace
was given up.
Chase meanwhile declares that
he is going to stay with the State
league. Cy Moreing, manager Of
the Stockton club, and one of the
guiding spirits of the outlaws, hints
that strong club will be put by
the State league into Oakland, and
that Chase will run it.
There is going to be hard fight,
and as a result the coast fans are
likely to have better baseball next
season than ever before.

HAL CHASE AT BOTTOM OF
BASEBALL WAR ON COAST

Special Correspondence to The Press
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.-THE
line are being drawn for what
promises to be one of the hottest
fights in the history of organized
baseball, and one which may affect,
at least indirectly, every club I'M
der the national agreement. The
Pacific Coast league, back by the
National and American, is going to
grapple with the outlaw State
league of California. There is every
indication that the war will be long
and bitter.
President Puliam of the National
league. and President Ban Johnson
of the American, have gone back
east after a recent unsuccessful
effort to bring about peace, but
they have left behind lot of base
bah men who are eager for the
fray. President Frank Herman of
the outlaw league, says:
I'VE are ready for whatever
comes along. This fight is not OF
our making. We are paying for all
our players. The big leagues come
along and want us to enter the
ranks OF organized baseball. We
could not see where we were going
to gain anything by such a move
so We have decided 10 stay out
That Is all there Is 10 IT,"
Baseball men we'll acquaintc.

It's an established fact that it is

1t is not generally known that, at

the catcher to handle the delivery

who use the splitter" are unable to
tell exactly where the ball is going

another time the sphere takes an
inward shoot, but most of the time
it breaks down, just like a drop

OUR MINERAL OIL INDUSTRY
More than $4,000, ooo, GOO worth

More than Q 1000, OOO, 900 worth of
mineral oil has been exported from the
United States since that product began
to be an article of expectation, less
than a half century ago. 1t is n Of
the few articles of staple production in
the United States whose sales abroad in
the fiscal year 1909 showed an increase
over the preceding year. A statement
just completed by the Bureau of Sta
tistics shows that during the year
which ended June 80 last, a year of de-
clining exports in our trade as a
whole, mineral oils showed a gain of
over 100000, 900 gallons in sales to for
eign countries and a gain of nearly
So, 1000, 900 in value.
The growth of the mineral oil indus
try is a marked example of the de-
velopment of domestic industries in the
United States. Production in the Unit
ed States increased eight fold since
1879, quadrupled since 1890, and more
thar trebled in the last ten years. In
1875 the production for the entire
United States (s,sOO,O0 barrels) was less
than that of the single state of Texas
I'll 200, 000) in 1908. From 1875 to
! 1888 domestic production made irregu-
lar gains, ranging between 100000
and 30.O00,00O barrels annually. The
year 1889, just ten years ago, witness
ed the advent of Texas, Kansas and
other southwestern states as mineral
poduction in the United States made
remarkable strides, advancing from
35, 000, 900 barrels in that year to 81
000, 900 in 1899, 100. 100000 in in 1903
and $1,000, 900 in 1908, the latest year
for which statistics are available.
This enlarged production in the
Unitaed States has given it a stronger
position in the worlds market. The
value of mineral oils of all kinds ex-
ported from the United States in the
last fiscal year was $106, 000, 900, being
practically double those of a decade
earlier, when the total was $50 DOC, 900,
and treble those of 1880, valued at $780,
100000. Even these figures of increas-
ed values fail to fully reflect the ac-
tual growth in quantities exported,
since export prices prevailing in 1909
are materially less than those of earlier
years. Measured in gallons, the growth
in domestic expectations of mineral oils
of all classes is from 424 900, 900 gal
Ions in 1880 to $50, 000, 900 in 1899 and
1862, 100000 in 1909. Thus, while the
value of the exports has increased 1915
per cent since 1880, the actual gain in
quantity exported meantime has been
26S per cent.
