“‘large increase in coke pro
DUCTION.
The coke made In Ihe United States
in 1915 amounted to 41,5$ 1,150 short
teas, an increase, as compared with
3914. of 7.025.23$ tems. or 20 per cent,
and was within 5.090.000 tons of the
record output of 1913. according to
figures compiled by C. E- Lesher, ol
the United States Geological Survey.
Of this total. 34 per cent, or 14.072.
>?5 tons, was hy-produet coke, and $$
per cetss. or 27.59S.255 tons, was made
in beehives ovens. The increase in
tthe output of by-product coke in 1915
as compared with 1914 was 25 per
cent, and in beehives, 1£ per cent. An
encouraging feature of the year's rec
“ ord was that the quantity of by-pro
duct coke made in 1915 was the great
est yet recorded, exceeding the out
put of 1913 by 1,355.195 tons. Three
fourths of the by-product plants re
ported an increase in output, and 4
new plants began production during
the year. 1 each at Cambria, Pa. Du
luth. Minn.. St. Louis. Mo., and Chat
tanooga. Term. The total number of
by-product ovens in operation in 3935,
v.~as 5,4$3. as against 5.142 in 1914.
The cumber of beehive ovens in oper
ation in 1915 was 49.549 as against
49.49C in 1914. The increase of 1$
per cent in the production of beehive
coke from practically the same num
ber of ovens indicates more contin
uous operation during the past year.
AH States except Alabama. Georgia.
Tennessee. Virginia, and West Vir
giuia. in the South, and Massachus
etts. in the North, had increased out
put in 1915.
TELLS OF FIRST BASEBALL
GLOVE.
According to a magaxine writer, the
first base bail glove appeared in 1SS7.
He tells about it as follows.
“About 1S$7-$S a baseball team came
, to Rockford. 111., to play our nine.
They called themselves the 'Uncon
auered Clippers of Illinois.' and plast
ered our town with big posters. We
made up our minds to giTe them a
drubbing, and at the end of the game
the score was Rockford 76. Clippers
10.
"There «as a little chap playing
thsrd base who grabbed everything
that came sear him, and held it. too
1 cotieed that he wore a kind of glove.
1 When the game was over 1 went to
him and asked what ft was that he
wore on his hand. He told me that he
was a machinist, and had got his
hand badly hurt the week before, and
he showed me the wound in his palm.
He said that the boys did not want
him to play the game, but he got a
piece of thin sheet steel and made it ;
slightly concave, but so that it did
not quite touch the sore place. He
then made a short gloTe to cover all
of the fingers, and doubled the leather
in the palm, so that he could slip the j
plate between.
“I asked him if it hurt, and he said
it did net, and that he could take a
hot one and hold it better with the
glove than without it. That is the
whole story. 1 don't think that Ai
Spalding ever talked to the little chap
with the iron fist, as the boys dubbed
the third baseman, but everybody in
Rockford knew about the mitt, and he
may have get the idea from him. Any.
way, that was the first glove that any
ballplayer ever wore."

MEN INQUIRED FOR
PERISHED ON KODIAK
* ______
An Inquiry for information as to
the whereabouts of Frank Kreuger.
from Mrs. Johanna Krueger, address
ed to Chief of Police Scott, and print
ed in the Prospector last Monday has
ted to the discovery of Krueger's
fate and revealed a remarkable co
incidence. says the Yaldex Prospect
; or.
In the winter of 15KI5-OS Krueger
and Confirms Kltasson left Red River
on the western coast of Kodiak is
land. and about ISO miles from the
, town of Kodiak, for an overland
trip to the town. They were over
taken by a severe snowstorm and
cold wvahter and are believed to
have perished. They never reached
their destination and later a dili
gent search was made for their bod
ies. but they could not be found. No
doubt, however, exists that they per
ished. as diligent inquiry at all
points where they could possibly
have touched failed to reveal any
trace of them.
A short time ago the marshal’s
office received an inquiry for infor
mation regarding the whereabuots of
Eliasson whose presence was re
quired in San Francisco in the set
tlement of an estate, or proof re
quired of his demise. In response
to this inquiry Marshal sent to Ko
diak for affidavits regarding the
fate of Eliasson and these affidavits
have just been received, and of ne
cessity also included in them the re
port of the fate of Krueger, inquiry
for whom was received coincident
with the receipt of the affidavit.
It is deemed a strange coincidence
that inquiry for both or these men.
who perished together, should have
been received at the same time from
opposite sides of the continent. The
marshal's office will send a copy of
the affidavits to both the attorney
in San Francisco, inquiring for Eli
asson. and to the aged mother of
Krueger, who is longing for news
from her missing son.
