BASE
BALL GOSSIP

Baseball talk at the present time
I furnishes meat for all gossip and
/ bone for all contentious. Everyone
has a fayorite player. a different idea
as to how "A team should be run and
in way n general belief that team,
to be a success, must conform precise
ly to their views and to their esti-
mates OF the value OF the various
players.
Naturally a large number trans
nit their opinions to the ears of the
baseball directors, and IL would he n
queer aggregation, indeed, If every
body was suited in the selection of
the players.
The writer would like to see Red
Toner back in the Grand Junction
uniform, and this probably voices the
sentiment of a large number in this
city. However, the directors are in
timately familiar with the merits and
demerits of this popular pitcher: and,
if his price is, in their opinion, more
than they can afford to pay. the prop
er thing for them to do is to do the
best they can and get good substi
tute.
Ballinger will likely form one of
the staff He is a good man and has
many admirers In Grand Junction,
although. when he was on the Glen
wood team we easily convinced our
selves that he was not in the same
class with Red. The color of the uni
form, however, to a great extent af-
fects the color of the glasses through
which we criticise a player, and the
management might do a great deal
worse than to secure him. He is a
clean, minded, heady play
er and a gentleman in every sense of
the word.
Then there is a movement to get
the wizard, Rusty. who pitched for
the Kansas City Red SoX. He is a
live wire. and is beyond doubt as
good a slabster as ever performed in
Grand junction. If he can be pro-
cured. he, is cheap .at almost any
price.
some were inclined 10 critivise The
management because they did not
sign Pratt. Pratt played good ball
with Grand Junction, but is much
troubled with rheumatism, and it is
doubtful If he would play ball this
year had he been wanted.
The players who have been en-
couraged so far are showing up well
and demonstrate the fact that the
baseball directors know what they
are doing. At any rate, they are do
ing the best they can with the money
| they have to spend, and there is time
enough to roast after the team has
been gotten together and has lost
few games, and not before the man
agement has been proven of in sin
gle particular
The baseball directors will have to
stand the blame If the team turns out
badly, and 1t is only right that they
should wish to use their own judg-
ment in selecting the men to form
that aggregation.
Give them credit for knowing lit
tie baseball; and. If your own favor
lite does not get on the team, pick a
new favorite from the men that do
get on.

GOVERNMENT drops CIVIL
SUIT AGAINST BEEF TRUST

Chicago, Dec. 27.--united States District
Attorney Edwin w. Sims appeared to-
day before Judge Gohlsaat in the federal
court and asked that the dissolution suit
OF the government against the National
Packing company, which had been ac.
cused of being trust be dismissed The
order was entered by the court.
Assistant United states Attorney James
H. Wilkerson late to-day issued n state
ment regarding the sweeping aside of the
civil suit to make way for criminal
prosecution of the mon composing the
National Packing company. It declares
there is but one reason for the dismissal
of the civil case and that is the desire of
the government for immediate and
vigorous criminal prosecution of the
packers The statement follows:
THE petition against the packers was
filed March q. 1910 Afterwards there was
a grand jury investigation, as result
of which indictments were returned

Porter Screen Works to Be Re-

200 Men.
PLANTS BEING CONCENTRATED

Winooski is to lose one Of its largest
manufacturing plants. 1t became known
Tuesday that the Porter Screen Manu-
featuring company at Winooski is to be
moved to Trenton, n. j.. shortly after
the first of the year.
\ rumor that this plant was to be
moved to the New Jersey city has been
current for some time, but reliable ver-
fCation of the story was secured direct
from the company offices at Winooski
Tuesday by the Free Press.
According to this statement the princi-
pal reasons for moving the plant are the
saving in the cost of raw material and
principally the saving to the company in
outgoing freight rates to all eastern mar
kets 1t is claimed that the outgoing
rates from Trenton TO Boston are lower
than from Winooski to Boston and that
the average rates from Trenton to New
York. Philadelphia and Baltimore are
only about half the rates from Winootki.
The Porter Screen company is one of
the Industries controlled by the John a.
Roebins Sons company Of New York,
manufacturers of steel wire. The big in
Iustries of the Messrs. Roebling are To-
,ated at Roebing, n j., q modern indus
trial town on the Delaware river a few
miles south of Trenton. II is here that
the Porter Screen company will be To-
Gated. The moving of tho Winooski
plant to Roeblng is said to be in line
with the generai~poicy of the Messrs
Roebling in concentrating their indus

According to information gained by the
Free Press from the Winooskl Offices OF
the Porter Screen company, the screen
factory, after its removal to Roebling
will be located adjacent to the Roeblins
wire cloth factory and the vessels oper'
atcd by the RoeblinG company will trans
uort the lumber used by the screen fac
cory direct to its own dock. This ar
rangement. 1t is claimed, will make pos
sible the avoiding of the present expen
.ive vessel freight to New London, Conn.
and the long rail haul from New Londor
to Winooski.
IT is expected that the factory at Wi
aooski will run to its full capacity for Thu

for some time. The high freight rate

BOTANICAL, AND BIRD CLUBS
Winter Meeting Here in January Is
Announced.

A bulletin, signed by Miss Nellie F.
Flynn, secretary for Burlington and c.
ID. Howe, secretary for Essex Junction,
has just appeared announcing that the
sixteenth annual winter meeting of the
Vermont Botanical club and the tenth
Of the Vermont Bird club will be held
in the Williams Science hall. University
Of Vermont, January 20 and u, 1911. The
first session will open at 1879 a. m. on
Friday and the meetings VIII continue
through Friday afternoon. evening and
saturday forenoon. The sessions of the
two clubs will he adjusted as heretofore,
according 10 the number and nature Of
the papers offered. 1t is hoped that the
clubs may have an ornitholog!st of note
as their guest to deliver the annual adj
dress on Friday evening. The annual
supper, complimentary to the visiting
members, will be provided by the Bur-
lington members of the Botanical and
Bird clubs, at the usual hour on Friday
evening. to be followed by the annual
roll call.
The president of the Botanical club
has named "A committee to have charge
of the details of the program as follows:

Nancy Darling. Woodstock, and Miss
Carrie w. Ormsbee, Brandon. Mr. Kirk

ing either program or bulletin can be
addressed to him.
/ The editor of the Botanical CLUB Bull
etin urgently requests that all members
who have botanical papers at the win
ter meeting bring with them, or send,
ligests OF the same well as the full
text of the papers, This request. COM
piled with. will help to get the bulletin
out early. The editor also urges the send
ing BY every member of some short
notes of interest for Botanical Notes
department and thus help to give added
interest to the bulletin.
The program committee suggests that
an exhibition of specimens. drawings,
books, etc, by members of both clubs
would give added interest to the meeting
and urges members TO bring anything
that will help to promote it.
The advantage Of deciding at the winter
meeting IS to the place and date of the
next summer meeting is evident. Sug-
restions are therefore invited relating to
this.
The treasurers of both clubs wish to re-
mind all members, who are in arrears
of the need of prompt payment of past
dues as well as those OF 1911. If this were
done the wishes of a great many of the
Botanical club members as to Il larger
bulletin could be complied with. A larger
membership would also help both to
enlarge the bulletin and tho field OF
influence Of the clubs.
