ATHLETIC I.KAGUE PROPOSED Representatives of Boys' Clubs VII I Sfeet a Y. 5L. C. -V. Plans for launching an athletic league of boys clubs are to be form ulated at a meetinjr at the Youngr Men's Christian Association next Monday night at 6:15 o'clock. Representatives of the association Bible classes, of Sunday school classes and of other boys' clubs, will attend a dinner at the Y. M. C. A. at that hour. The asso ciation is anxious for all clubs inter ested In the movement to -be repre sented by threa delegates. It was first intended to form an or ganization for the present season only. It is now intended, however, to put the league on a permanent basis. Ar rangements will be made for a cham pionship series in baseball, basketball and football. After organizing, the boys will first enter teams in a baseball league. It is probable that 10 or more teams will enter. The games will be played on Saturday afternoons and on other afternoons after school hours. A track meet will also be held, pVobably on Iecoratlon day. Boys' clubs from outside the city will be eligible for membership and several have already expressed their Intention of Joining. Only Batted Italic 1'orce Runners. AL.T5AXY. Or.. April 8. (To the Sport ing Editor.) In a recent baseball game here the bnsos were full. The runner on tlrst, forgetting that second was oc cupied, nn to that base so that both were standing tiiere. The pitcher threw the ball to third base, and the third baseman threw home. Meanwhile the runner from first had returned to that base and the umpire declared all run ners safe. I this a correct ruling? If the score was sufficiently closa, and neveral runs were scored In this inning, would you consider this sufficient grounds lor protesting the game? HANS FLO. The umpire ruled correctly. Runners cannot be forced off basics held by them except on hatted balla, and the only play in the circumstances you name was for the throw to be made to first or fecoml base instead of to third. In this case a proU-st would be of no avail. Vancouver Talks Boat Club. VANCOUVER. Wash., April Spe rial.)

GISH DECLARED ELIGIBLE HA WARD'S CONTENTION" ITEM TO AVAIIi NAUGHT. Refusal to Submit Evidence Said to Outlaw His Claim That Athlete Should' Not Contest. SEATTLE, "Wash-, April 8. (Special.) Brailey Gish. the star university track athlete, will be eligible to compete for Washington this season, according to the university authorities. William Hayward. the University of Oregon trainer, and one of Oregon's rep resentatives in the intercollegiate con ference, has declared that Gish is in eligible and that he will be protested by Oregon but the state university powers, after considering the case, assert that Gish may compete if he choses to do so. If they hold to their decision. Hay ward's action in the matter may have been the means of balking his own pur pose. Dr. D. C. Hall, the University physical director, says that Hayward's refusal to submit his evidence to the faculty athletic committee of Washing ton has "outlawed" his claim that Gish is not eligible. The conference rules say that when evidence of the Ineligibility of an ath lete is held by representatives of one college, it must be submitted at once to the proper authorities of the athlete's Alma Mater. Dr. Hall says that Hay ward is using the affair as a club to hold over Washington and that in his opin ion the Oregon triner is putting up a blgr bluff. Colonel Wood Recovers His Art Treasures Pictures Pound In Cellar After Ex press Company's Iona; Search. It Is rather unsafe to mention- the subject of pictures just know to Colonel C. E. S. Wood, bibliophile and owner of valuable works of art. . The reason lies in -forg-etfulness. Mr. "Wood ascribes the forg"etf ulness to one "Jim," but unkind Wei Is-Fargo officials unkindly to lame Colonel Wood himself. Perhaps there Is a certain, amount of retributive justkse in this, for Mr. Wood has made the lives of Wells Fargo men miserable for, yea, these many months. Clerks have roundly abused Mr. Wood for the extra labor he has put on their shoulders. And now the curses have come home to roost, for Mr. Wood, perhaps, is being the most Joked, man in Portland, or in Seattle, either, for that matter. It all arose over three priceless paintingrs that Mr. Wood lent to the A.-Y.-P. They were a Boudin marine, a Corot landscape and a Monticelll group, each perfect in its own way. Director Berg: saw them shipped, heavily insured, to Mr. Wood. They came to Portland. Either Mr. Wood or the mysterious "Jim received them, signed for them and promptly con signed the crates to the coal cellar. There they were promptly forgotten. Time dragged. Mr. Wood began to miss the delights those three perfect pictures afforded him. He racked his brain to think what he had done with them. At last the happy memory. He had lent them to the A.-Y.-P. A tele gram, to Director Berg followed. They were shipped over the Northern Ex press and handled by Wells-ITargo, re plied Mr. Ber g". With all the ability of his legal mind - Mr. Wood sent a harrowing series of letters to the Wells-Eargo people. Finally the clerks were or dered to hunt up the shipping slips. Then the insurance companies found that they could not be released from their policies on the exhibits, -because of Mr. Wood's missing pictures lying stored in his cellar on Portland Heights. So the Insurance companies began to send letters to the Wells-Fargo Com pany, and - Colonel Wood sent many more. And the unhappy clerks dug among the musty, dusty papers. Then just the other day, Mr. Wood went into the cellar to yet ft hammer. He saw three crates. Curiosity sug gested he examine them. There were the pictures. Then apologetic letters went to Se attle and elsewhere. But the clerks have not forgiven Colonel Wood. TOWN INFESTED BY HOBOS Depredations at Castle Rock Cause Police Annoyance. CASTLE ROCK. "Wash., April 8. (Spe cial.) Depredations by an undesirable class of citizens have caused much an noyance here of late. One nig-ht the seal of a boxcar lyln;? on the siding was opened and four boxes of shoes and a case containing 2000 cirars were stolen. Next day a man entered a local shoe store and tried to sell some of the shoes. The proprietor questioned the fellow closely and he became frightened and ran out. leaving the shoes behind. A cache has been found on the side of a hill with most of the shoes but no trace has been discovered of the cigars. Local police have their suspicions of the identity of some 'of the robbers. Bridge Bonus Advanced. 5IEPFOED, Or, April 8. (Special.) Residents in and near Phoenix have raised $12i0 as a honus to the county toward the construction of a steel bridge across Bear Creek. Bids are to be called for and the bridge -will be built in the near future. PLUMBERS RESIST FLEISCHER SUIT Clash of Legal Talent Will Be Heard in Attempt to . Break "Trust." FEDERAL ACTION LIKELY Attorneys for Plaintiff Say They Have Complete Chain of Evidence as to Inner Working of "Com bine" In City of Portland, The first rfdrmlsh in what Is expected to be one of the greatest legal battles in local state courts in many months will take place, probably next week, when arguments will be heard In the private suit filed February 25 last against what is known as the "plumbers' trust." No answer has yet been made to the. original petition filed by Gerhard R. Fleischer against individual members of the Portland Master Plumbers Associa tion and firms doing a wholesale plumb ing business here. The defendants- have employed an imposing array of the -best legal talent, and, judging from prelim inary activities, the case will be hotly contested. ' Fleischer, through his attorneys, Lo gan. Stevenson & Smith, asks $75,000 dam ages, insisting he was forced to discon tinue business as a plumber because of a combination against him, comprised, he alleges, by the wholesale houses and the members of the Master Plumbers' Asso ciation. Defendants File Demurrers. The following are defendants in the suit: The Crane Company, the Gauld Company, Hassalo Engineering Company, M. L. Kline, J. F. Lynds, John F. Shea, John Doe "Walkrow, John Doe Conley, F. A. Nitchy, Richard Martin and R. C. Bartows. They have employed the following well known law firms: Giltner & Sewall, Fle gel & Reynolds, Williams & Spencer and W. C. Bristol. Since March 19 these law yers have filed various motions and de murrers in the case and as yet have filed no answer to the specific charges made. This is being awaited with interest. Action, it is tirought, will be taken on the motions and demurrers this week, when Attorney I. N. Smith, representing Fleischer, will answer them. After the disposition of these questions the answer will be filed. The suit may go even further than the local situation, according to an intima tion made yesterday by Attorney Smith. Several letters of an incriminating na ture, involving alleged violations of the Sherman anti-trust act, are said to have fallen into the hands of the attorneys and prosecution by the Federal Govern ment is hinted at- Chain of Evidence Strong. One of the most sensational develop ments since the exploitation of the case et -the time of the filing of the suit is the uncovering of evidence by the attor. neys showing the workings of the plumb ing industry, from the manufacturer down to the filumbers union. Through all of the four branches of the industry, manufacture, jobbing, merehanting and installing, there is said to exist an ag gressive combination. One not in this combination cannot remain in business; say the attorneys. An agreement made in Baltimore, fa mous among men interested in the -business and known as the "Baltimore agree ment," is where the "trust" had its in cipiency, say the attorneys. Through this agreement a combination to fix prices all over the United States was formed among the manufacturers. In order to make the organization solid, the jobbers were -made to organize and form an agreement among themselves in or der to get goods. Each jobber, said Mr. Smith, is forced to give bond in the sum of $5000 that he will not violate any of the agreements made with the manufac turer. The pith of this agreement is that he will not sell to any master or merchant plumber who does not belong to the organization. Los Angeles Conditions Similar. " In Los Angeles a similar suit has been filed. It Is now going through the same legal stages as the case here. In a re cent issue of a trade Journal in the Southern city, the workings of the Mer chant Plumbers' Association, known as the Master Plumbers' Association here, ere, exposed in detail. It recites that when a plumber Joins the association he must, if able to pur chase materials, pay $100 to the associa tion. Thereafter on each installation he must pay the association $1. This means that each tungalow is taxed $1 for the association, or, as in the case of an apartment-house or business block, as much as $200. Just what is done with this money Is not known. It is estimated that of the -C39 building permits issued here last year the profit to the plumbers' association aggregated $10,000.
