The most pitiful story of all per-
haps was that told by Mrs. Ella Nor
ris, 35 years old, widow, and the
sole support of little baby!
Mrs. Morris went to work for the
shoe trust seven months ago, after
her husband had died and left her
alone in the world. ~
She was a strong healthy woman
then. She was haggard and wan of
face, thin of body and half-starved
looking when she took the stand last
night
Mrs. Morris work was to label fac
tory products. She was given no
sponge. She had to use her tongue.
And the gum of the labels poisoned
her.
Simply she told her story, and the
effect of it on the commission was
only the greater. But the hirelings
of Big Business who crowded the
room only sneered at her. And once
Bill Alexander, the shoe trusts brutal
foreman, laughed aloud.

JOHNNY EVERS MAKES AN
OFFER FOR AL. MATTERN
Cub Leader Dickering with Montreal for
Services of international Leagues Star
SOuthpaw Finger.

There may be gloom in Montreal
as thick and as heavy as the mantle
of depression which settled down on
the Midwife fans when Casey did
the "whiff,Y but fans in seven other
International League villages will
prick up their ears and drink in the
news from the ticker with keen ap-
probation when a flash is sent out
that AL Mattern has been purchased
from the Montreal Club by Manager
Johnny Evers, of the Cubs.
Such deal is now pending IL the
Cub owner is willing to meet the
Montreal Club half way in driving
a bargain.
Johnny Evers wants a capable
southpaw for his hurting corps. There
is no more capable left-handed deliv-
cry clerk in any minor league stable,
and there are only one or two more
finished larboard workers in the big
leagues. Nap Rucker and Rube Mar
guard are in a higher class. but
Mattern's name can be mentioned
with that of Jean Gregg, the Cleye-
land star, any old time. and its lustre
will not be bedimed the slightest.
Mattern played havoc with the
Tigers chances to finish higher than
third in the race last season by beat
ing them every time he faced the
Bengals. His left-handed spitters
break with such bewildering speed
that it is beyond the skill of the
most trained human optic to follow
the sphere and strike with the bat
at the same with absolute precision.
Bill Collins, who played with Mat
tern on the Boston team, remarked
that the only reasonably sure method
of touching Mattern's spitters when
it is breaking properly is to take
the bat and chop downward as the
sphere is about to cross the plate.
By this method fast man hits a
high hopper and has one chance in
ten of beating it out. Collins de-
clared that he batted against Mat
tern twenty-four times last season
and got three hits, all of them in
field Scratches" Bill managed to
walk twice in games Mattern pitched.
Three hits in twenty-four official
times at bat accounts for an average
Of .125, and then one has to consider
that they were all infield affairs.
With faster infield combination be-
hind him Mattern might have
blanked Bill with twenty-four zeros
added to the eight "zephyrs" Bill
accumulated by breezing the ozone.
How the Boston Club succeeded in
obtaining. waivers on man like
Mattern is another one of those UNI

Harry Smith. manager of the

off on mysterious mission SUP
posed TO be in connection with some
sort of baseball deal The Newark
club wants a capable infielder to act
as utility man for the four inner
posts during the coming season, and
Harry's journey may have something
to do with the signing Of the right
man.
incidentally Smith may take adj
vantage of the opportunity while ne
is away to pay a visit to George

the clever veteran. Smith did not

good-by to his friends. In fact. the

The Buffalo club Is seeking In
fielder Gus Getz, according 10 a Buff
falo correspondent. Getz Is a third
sacker, drafted by Brooklyn from e.
mira. He would likely make an ideal
utility man for the Tigers, but It Is
not known whether or not Smiths
journey is IN connection with Getz.
Last season Getz led the New York
State League third-saekers IN fielding
and batted at a POS clip. When it is
taken into consideration that only
six men in the league batted better
than 300, Gets record is all the
move favorable, for it proves that
there are some good pitchers IN that
circuit. Besides the above stunts
Getz helped to keep Elmira In the
pennant fight all season, leading his
team IN batting and base-running.
Manager Clymer. of the Bisons,
would probably be willing TO give up
Ralph Stroud for Infielder Getz, but
the Newark club also wants Getz IL
our guess Is right. Whatever Smiths
mission Is, no one win know the re-
suit. be it successful or unsuccessful,
until ohfiln IeAufn5- he IS expected
back by Tuesday at the latest.
On Smiths return to Newark the
next important move will be TO make
hotel accommodations for the squad
at Savannah. This duty may also
fall on Smiths shoulders If Harry is
compelled to make another journey
South he viii likely visit Swacina at
Birmingham to get the big fellow
