KELL LANDED IN
TROUBLE AGAIN
Pardoned by State Board,
Convict Once More Be-
hind the Bars

Bismarck, N. D. Dec. 1S.-Willson
D. kell, m Of the convicts who was
pardoned from the pe%nitentiary at the
December meeting of the state board
of pardons is again in the tolls of the
law after freedom lasting little over
Il week. His trouble this time is
somewhat similar to his first offensc,
1t Will be remembered that Kell in.
duced Il Williston school teacher to
take Il trip into the country with him
and that when night caught them
away from home he refused to drive
to town but spent the night and the
next day in a deserted claim shack.
He was convicted and in 1909 sem to
the p~enitentiary for ten years.
Wednesday Of last week Mrs. AltaN
Bervan of Sentinel Butte came to Bis
marck where h was to enter a local
hospital for treatment but for some
reason instead of going to the hospital
she registered at a local hotel where
she met Kell and became enamored OF
him and they went to another hotel
and registered as mar and wife. Sat
urday night the husband came to the
city and not finding his wife at Il hos
pital finally located her with Kell at
the hotel. Bervan sought the assist
ance of the chief of police and had
kell arrested. Just as the police had
finished searching the clothes Of Kell
and had locked him up, Rervan and
his wife arrived ut the police station
seeking the advice of the officers. Mrs.
Bervan stated that she wanted to get
a divorce and said she was broken
down in health from hard work and
abuse and that she was tired Of living
with her lawful husband. In search
ing the effects of Kell, Chief Of Police
Mcdonald found a number of news
paper clippings telling Of the arrest
and trial in Williams county and upon
informing Mrs. Bervan that her
friend vas an ex-convict the woman
became excited, asked for a knife and
stated that she wanted to kill herself.
Upon the request Of Bervan his wife
was allowed to return to a hotel and
he has kept close watch ove here
since that time so she could not have
a chance to end her life. Kell, the
pardoned convict who figures SO con-
spicuously in the cas- accepted con-
ditions rather calmly and said he
would relate his side of the story when
he got into court. He has remained in
Bismarck since his pardon against the
wishes Of the officers of the law.

THE FINANCIAL
TRADE REVIEW
Revival of Steel Trade and
Money Condition Pre-
dominating Influences

New York, Dec. 1S.-The unmis-
taxable revival in the steel trade and
tho striking demonstration Of the
strength of the country's money po-
sition were reflected in last weeks
stock market. There were contribute
ory factors, but these two constituted
the main influence.
The untitled tonnage report of the
United States Steel corporation at the
end Of November, disclosing an un-
~expectedly large increase, was supple
mented as a market influence by the
advance in prices of various products
by the steel corporation and other
makers. Car manufacturers also were
demanding higher prices as a result
of recent railroad orders. and the
stimulating effect on production was
seen in plans for opening various idle
plants for the first of the year. The
steel corporations bookings Of orders
for the first half of December were
said by the Iron Age to be on a larger
scale than for November. The effe
on the stock market was heightened
by published statements of Fl. G.
Frick and Chairman f. A. Gary. Civ
ing hopeful views of the outlook for
next year.
Copper trade developments parall-
eled those in steel. The rise in the
price of the metal was in response to
the reported expansion of demand.
The report Of the railway securi-
ties commission, combining its recon-.
mendation to publicity as a remedy
for capital imitation, was accepted as
conservative. Another favorable in
fiuence was the supreme courts re-
fusal of the independent tobacco man.
ufacturers' petition to disapprove the
American Tobacco .company's reor-
ganization plan.
Tho money market showed pro-
nounced recuperation. This was due
partly t o the technical causes of the
poor showing in the clearing house
statement for the first week Of De-
cember. which was corrected by the
~re-transfer Of Canadian balances held
aside for the purpose OF the annual
banking return. Berlin made fresh
bids in New York for accommodations
owe rthe end Of the year. for which
supplies apparently were found. The
| rise in interest rates in New York to
a profitable figure was followed by the
abundant refiux Of funds from the in.
terror.
Tho record cotton crop promised
by the government estimate goes into
tho reckoning Of favorable factors.

be threshed out is the ownership Of

why did you call Birmingham out at
second when Coombs threw to catch him nap
mapping? Looked as If Joe got back to the bag
before the ball reached Barry's hands"
HE got back, but not to the bag" replied
Bill. Barry had him blocked off, and Birmy'

answered Bill. HE was safe mile If he
hadn't oversld the bag three or four inches and
allowed himself to be touched out before he
was able to regain it."
On the four plays in which Dinneen was
absolutely correct he was forced to submit
to all kinds of censure, because the fans did
not know what had really happened.
There are any number of points that the
fans should take into consideration when
they see the umpire declare man out who
seems to them to be safe beyond reasonable
doubt Four OF them / have already re-
ferred to; failure to touch the bag, due to be-
ing drawn OF by high, low or wild throw;
dropping of the ball after having touched the
base runner, due to the force of the collision;
sliding Of the base runner into the foot of the
in1elder, instead Of the bag and the overslid-
ing of the bag after having reached 1t in
safety
The fallaway slide is another point that
causes all kinds of trouble for the umpires.
This slide is used by most Of the leading
base runners, and consists Of going straight
for the bag until within short distance of
1t, then falling away, so to speak. by throwing
the body either towards the inheld or outfeld
as best suits the occasion, and hooking one
foot under the bag. This slide rAakes it very
hard for an inf1elder to put the ball on, the
runner, as 1t gives him only the sole Of the
shoe, or as the players express It. only the
spikes to touch.
The baseball fans, however may ne consider.
ed pretty fair creatures and each year they are
getting more fairminded. l have noticed

ute tb Improvement to the fact that the um.
