13 TIIE MOHXIXG OKEGOXIAN, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1909. IHTEM mil LEAGUE TO BE GO Promoters Arrange Meeting in Salt Lake City to Draw Up Contracts. LUCAS AMD BARNES LEAVE Grim to Manage Salt TaCke, Stronth rrs Butte, Barnes Boise, Huston Helena "Buck" Keith May Obtain Ogden. John J. Grim and Con Strouthers, two of the movlns; spirits in the- promotion of tho new Inter-Mountain Leajrue, left Chicago yesterday for Salt Lake City. This information was conveyed to Presi dent William H. Lucas in a telegram from Cincinnati, followed a few minutes later by another from Grim at Chicago. In response to these messafres President Lucas and John S. Bare -will leave Portland tomorrow night for Salt Lake Cltv. This means that the Inter-Mountain League is a" go. and the manaKers for the different towns have practically been decided upon. Jack Grim is to have tho Salt Lake City franchise, while Strou thers will take the Butte club; John S. Barnes is to give the fans of Boise a team for the first time since 1304. and Jack Huston will assume charge of the dttniea of the Helena club. "Wee Wlllio' Campbell, who was formerly as foclated with Bob Brown in conducting the Aberdeen team, will be given the option of taking the Pocatello or Ogden clubs. Campbell is likely to accept the Pocatello franchise, for that town baa never before been represented in a baseball league and is said to be anxious to break into the Inter-Mountain. Ogden is the stronghold of "Dad" Glmlin. who has had active charge of every team that lias represented that place In the Utah State League in tho past, but Glmlin is said to have an nounced his retirement and informs President Lucas that any one the latter would suggest- would receive his sup port and backing in placing a team there. "Buck" Keith, the former manager of the Omaha Western League club, and one of the prominent figures of the base ball days of a few years ago, is said to be anxious to get a franchise in the new league, and his application is looked upon favorably by President Lucas and his associates. Keith is a thorough base ball man and can be depended upon to stir up the interest needed in Ogden and it is quite likely that he will get the team. Salt Lake is becoming enthusiastic over the new league and Is the best town in the new circuit. Jack Grim has been in Salt Lake City before, and is known favorably among the fans of the Mor mon city. He will assure them of a good club and that is all that is neces sary to reap the harvest. Jack Huston, former player and um pire, leaves this morr.lng for Aberdeen to close up a few accounts he baa there. Then he will go immediately to Helena and confer with Jack Flannery. Huston and Flannery are to handle the Helena club, the Tormer being actively at its head, for Flannery is Chief of Police of the Montana capitol and cannot devote the time necessary to handling the team. In the meantime Charley Shaffer, the comedian, better known as "Pull 'em up" Shaffer, will endeavor to Increase the interest of the Helena, fans in the new league. He has written President Lucas plfding his support and expressing his re gret at not being able to remain In Mon tana this season. Shaffer has signed to manage the Davenport. Ia., club in the Three Eye League during the coming season. FAIIi TO SIGN FOK AGREEMENT O'Connell and Sullivan Are Farther Apart Than Ever. After several weeks of wrangling and boasting. Eddie O'Connell and Dan Sul livan, the rival wrestlers, pot together yesterday afternoon and almost reached an agreement for a bout. However. Just about the time the seconds and a few spectators expected to witness the sign ing of the articles, negotiations were broken off. The hitch In proceedings came about because O'Connell wanted .Too Acton as referee, and Sullivan objected. Finally O'Connell compromised by suggesting "Larry" Lnrimore. physical director of the Portland M. C. A., a disinterested party and a man with whom neither of the wrestlers is personally acquainted. Sullivan objected to Lnrimoro "because he did not know him" and submitted the name of "Bud" Smith, the former cham--plon wrestler of the Northwest, who lives at Vancouver. Wash. Smith was not ac ceptable to O'Connell. and the parley ended. Instead of insisting that the bout be held under the auspices of Fred T. Merrill, as in his former proposition, Sullivan agreed that It should be con ducted under the auspices of the pro moter or club offering the best induce ments. O'Connell says he has called Sulli van's bluff, and if the latter is in earnest he should consent to a match with Lari more as referee. In the meantime O'Con nell is training for his bout next Thurs day night with "Young Hackenschmldt," who is also working out regularly. Hack enschmldt stated yesterday that he was petting down to weight nicely and be lieves he can make the weight without trouble. MOOTAIX LEAGUE IS SURE Butte, Salt Lake, Ogden, Boise, Po catello and Great Falls to Join. CHICAGO, Feb. 1-2. J. J. Grim, holder of the Salt Lake City franchise In the proposed Inter-Mountain Base ball League, and J. C. Strouthers, pro moter of the Butte club, declared to day that the new league is now as sured, and that details only remain to be settled. Before leaving for Salt Lake today, Mr. Grim said: "The new league will embrace the cities of Salt Lake. Ogden. Butte, Boise, Pocatello and Helena and possibly Great Falls. We have secured the pro tection of the National Association of Professional Baseball Clubs, and when Mr. Strouthers and I arrive at Salt Lake we will gt to work with Presi dent Lucas. of the Northwestern League and also of our own, and make ready for the coming season. LOS AXGELES WANTS GAMES Basketball Team Has Keeord of 68 Out of 7 0 Games riayed. C. W. Hahn. manager of the Los An geles basketball team, which has enjoyed most successful tour of the Northwest, was In Portland yesterday to arrange jrnmes here with Portland fives. Manager Haiux ta ted-that ta was euro of getting a game with the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club quintet, and would also like to meet the Y. M. C. A. five, but the latter team leaves for a road tour today and will not return In time to play the visitors. The Los Angeles team has played 70 games to date and won 68 of them. One of their defeats was at the hands of the Washington State College team and the other was at Salt Lake City. The Wash ington State College team afterwards was defected by Whitman College which team was decisively beaten by the Angel City five. ; The Los Angeles boys are scheduled to sail for Honolulu February 23. but will return about March 30 for a series of three games with the crack Oregon team of Dallas, at Dallas during the latter part of March. It is also quite likely that on their return the Los Angeles boys will meet the Multnomah team in a return game and will also play the Y. M. C. A- team.

M. C A. VICTORI OUS BY SCORE OF 39 TO 15. Thre New Men Tried Out TVho WiU Be Taken on Basketball Tram's Trip North. The Portland Y. M. C. A. basketball team last night defeated the Willam ette University five in a hotly-contested game with a score of 39 to 16. Wil lamette's Inaccuracy at basket tossing was responsible for the one-sided score, for comparatively easy tosses were missed, while the Portland boys seemed to place the ball In the net at wilL During the first half of the game the Portland five tried out three new men who are to be taken along on the northern trip next month, and, while they showed wonderful speed, they were not adept at tossing baskets. However, the new men showed enough class to warrant them being made members of the team and they will de velop as they gain experience. Asch com. Rossman and Stokes are the new players and the latter two played through the game. Ashcom, who is a most promising player, was relieved by the veteran Hartman, at the commencement of the second half. Hartman proved his worth to the team, for when he went into the game the score was 9 to 7, but the hustling center of the home team soon com menced adding to this, for he scored nine field baskets, for a total of 18 points. Sheets also played a fine game. His passing and accurate tossing aided greatly in the victory. The lineup of the teams was as fol lows: Y. M. C. A. Position. Willamette. Aschcom. Rossman .. Crawford Russell F Belknap Rosaman. Hartman... C Mclntyre n. rSimmlnitl kneels vj-. ........ -- --- Stokes a Wlnslow The Willamette University team is scheduled to meet the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club basketball five tonight at the club gymnasium.

Wednesday night it plays at Tacoma, and Thursday, Fri day and Saturday night the Portland boys meet the Bellingham. Vancouver and Victoria, B. C, teams respectively.

I SAYS MAGNATES CONSPIRE Fears That Baseball Will Got to Low Level of Racing, and Com plains of Heart-breaking Schedules. CHICAGO. Feb. 12. (Special.) Lovers of clean baseball fear the present dirty warfare will reduce the game to the same deplorable condition racing finds itself in, and for the same reason jealousy and un fair tactics. President Murphy, of the champion Cubs, has many supporters in his single-handed battle against the Na tional League magnates, Aided and abet ted by the American League powers. The matter narrows down to the fact that the American League cannot endure to see the National take down three championships in a row, and the National League magnates appear anxious to dis rupt the champions so that they may get some of their players. There are still more sordid reasons why some of the newspaper writers are engaged In venom ous attacks upon President Murphy, who insists upon running his team on a busi ness basis. Murphy now charges that the magnates have framed up a schedule which his team cannot fill. For instance, they are expected to play In New York one day. Pittsburg the next and Chicago the next. It is impossible to make these Jumps and have the men in any condition. Nelson May Take On Hyland. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12.
