STKIKK FALLS FLAT. NEW YORK, July 21 The threat ened strike of the American and Na tional League players is believed to have been averted by action of a meeting of the American League magnates, which authorized the re sale of Infielder Uraft, around whom the storm centered, to the Newark ; International League club at a valu ation placed on his services by the Nashville Southern Association club, whose claim was upheld by the Na tional commission. It is against the National Commission's ruling sus taining Nashville's right to use Kraft that the player's fraternity rebelled. President Futtz, of the fraternity, lat er announced there would he no strike now, as disposition of Kraft was agreeable to the players. BUFFALO, July 21.

Naylor, who is employed at the bakery, had stepped inside for a basket of bread which he intended to deliver and when he came out the wheel was gone. He said he did not believe he was in the bakery more than five minutes at the most. The theft was reported to Marshal Williams and Sheriff Quine this morning, but np to 3 o'clock this af ternoon no trace of the wheel had been found. Another wheel was re cently stolen from the porch of O. C. llaker. in North Hoseburg. The officers are of the opinion that the Naylor bicycle was stolen by some transient and is being used as a means of getting out of the country. All officers in the county have been notified to watch for the missing wheel, and the thief will probably be apprehended. RlRflADJEETI Was Held' at the Commercial Club Last Evening COMMITTEEMEN WERE PRESENT Another Meeting Will Be Held Soon When further Action in the Project Will Be Taken The Hoseburg railroad committee at. a meeting held last night in the Commercial Club parlors, had a pro tracted and enthusiastic session at which time the many details of the papers about to be filed in the city council for the railroad bond Issue were discussed and decisions arrived at. It will require another meeting of the committee, which will be held In a couple of days, fn order to per fect all the details, but the commit tee wishes to announce that one thought will he carried through all of the proceedings including the au thority that will be vested in the per manent railroad commission, and that is that not one cent of the bond issue will be expended until the com mission has contracted, with reliable Itoiul securities, for the completion of (ho entire railnal to Coos Hay with in a cert n In specified t inn, ami in cluding continuous operation I'or a specified period of years. With this assurance on the part of the committee and the impossibility to legally expend any of the money except under these conditions, name ly, the completion and operation of the railroad to Coos Hay in its eniire ity, the citizens of Hoseburg are fully protected as against any useless ex penditures or frittering away of money, nnd can well afford to Invest double or treble the amount contem plated In the, bond issue If it guaran tees a railroad through to the coast, when it is considered the factories and payrolls that will thereby be lo cated in the city of Hoseburg, with their attending prosperity, increase of population and property values.

LOCATED BT OFFICER Stolen Automobile Found at Von calia This Morning OWNED BY HORNBROOK MAN Driver of Car Could Not Be Located By Of ficers Today left Yoncalla last Night Securing his information through an article published in Monday even ing's issue of the Daily Review, Deputy sheriff Daugberty, of Yoncal la, this morning located the touring car which tho officers allege was re cently stolen here by a man uamed Lyncn. The machine was owned by M. K. Kdwards, of Hornhrook, Cal., and was being driven from California to Fugene at the lime alleged theft occurred. , When Daugberty received Mon day night's Review he recalled the fact that he had noticed a stranger about Yoncalla who possessed an au tomobile, lie visited the Yoncalla garade and alter brief inquiry ascer tained that tho machine taken by Lynch was there pending repairs. From what he could learn. Lynch ar rived there two or three days ago and intended to leave as soon as the car was repaired. Lynch also prob ably had seen a copy of The Review, for he was nowhere to be found this morning. ' j As soon as Mr. Daugberty learned that the missing car was there he communicated with Deputy Sheriff Fred Stewart, of Hoseburg. Mr. Stewart, in turn, wired Mr. Kdwards, at Hornhrook, Cal., that his car had been located and would he turned over to him on his arrival here. Whether or not any effort will be made to locate Lynch had not been determined this afternoon. Mr. Kd wards apparently desires his machine more than the satisfaction of send ing .the alleged culprit to jail for a term of years. Should Mr. Kdwards want the alleged thief located, how ever, the officers will continue their search for him throughout the North west. The car. which is of the touring type, is said to he in had condition, and plainly evidences harsh treat ment during the past few weeks. The officers believe that Lynch was trying to get away with the car but on ac count of a defect was compelled to delay at Yoncalla. The machine was repaired in a local garage on July . and had not been heard of since until this morn ing, when ft wits located by Deputy Sheriff Daugberty. Lynch, who is accused of stealing the automobile, was located at Yon calla this afternoon, when he filed a suit against Mr. Kdwards and at tached the car in question. Lynch claims that Kdwards owes him $20(1 for services. Further complications in the controversy came an hour later when Sheriff (Jorge Quine received a telegram from Mr. Kdwards, at Hornhrook, to arrest Lynch and hold him pending such time as he could arrive here. Kd wards will probably reach here tomorrow or Thursday. Tlii;.TKI AT IIOSI'ITAL. SAN ItKUNA 111 )i N'O, Cal.. July 21.

C. Alexan der in hope that he, also, will make u proposition to sell his park site to the city. Kither property has its ad vantages, and there is some differ ence of opinion as to which site would prove the more valuable to the city. The council Monday night ordered the Nachter site surveyed and prac tically agreed that its purchase should be submitted to tho voters of the city at the regular election next November. People who favor the Alexander site contend that the purchase of this park could also be submitted to the voers at the same election, thereby giving them a choice between the two favorite tracts. : Mr. Alexander could not ho seen , today, and consequently it is not know n the exact price lie asks for his properly. In the event the two sites are submitted to a vote of the people, the one receiving tho most ! votes will be purchased and Im proved. 11 Hoseburg has long needed a park and the members of the council feel that the time has arrived when some definite action should be taken by them in tho direction of acquiring suitable land. To this end they are now considering the purchase of the Nachter tract. o DEER SEASON OPENS ON AUG. 1 REMAINS OPEN UNTIL OCTOBER 31 August 1 to October 31, three long months, will be the opeii season for deer. With the opening day less than two weeks off, not a few sports men are shining up the old weapon and are preparing to invade the stronghold of the lithe creatures. That a splendid season is promised is indicated by the reports from the mountain districts of the county say ing that deer were never more plenti ful than now. Especially are there plenty of deer in Cow Creek, where 20 of their mi miter were recently seen grazing on the hillside hy a pass ing train crew. Only three male deer are permit ted to each hunter during the season. Any mutilation of the carcass so as to conceal the sex is a violation of the law. Hunters should remember that they cannot hunt and fish on the same license, but must have both hunters' and anglers' licenses If they wlsli to engage in both sports. Will the season pass off quietly without the death of a single hunter? This is the question that is upper most in the minds of many people. This would not be impossible if the sportsmen would heed the Instruc tions printed upon the licence, and wear red garments, that could be dis tinguished at a distance. It would be a good thing for every hunter to carefully study the Instruc tions printed on the backs of all li censes, whether they have previously studied them or not. To those who have studied them it would serve to refresh their memory. Some mighty good bints are given. L.itc;K nor citoi. RALKM, Or., July 21.

Secretary S. S. Josephson today mailed a communi cation to 40 active members of the organization who have been appoint ed a committee to solicit, and devise means whereby the membership of the club can be increased hi tjio near future. Tho Hoseburg Commercial Club is a most worthy organization and should have the undivided sup port of every man, woman and child in Douglas County. The accomplish ments of this organization have been effective and can only be realized hy those who are close in touch with the club's affairs. Thousands of let ters have been sent East of late and in return Douglas County has secured ninny new and substantial citizens. It Is now up to the people of Hose burg to support the club In the event they would receive their full quota of newcomers during the next year. Don't delay send In your name to day and you will be enrolled as a regular member of tho club. The social features of the organization are alone worth the price of admis sion. Following is the letter mailed by Secretary Josephson to tho members of the soliciting committee: "Dear Sir: "At n recent meeting of the board of trustees of the Hoseburg Commer cial Club, It was found that the membership of the club was not as numerous nor us active as' It should he, and to remedy this condition. It was decided to appoint a special membership committee of 40 of the most active members of tho club, who should investigate this matter and devise means of increasing tho active membership by at least olio hundred. There are easily treble that number of citizens who should become mem bers of the club, nnd the greater part of them will do so If they are prop erly approached. It has been sug gested that each member of tho com mittee pledge himself to get five new members, and this should not ho a hard undertaking. Hy compiling a list of all of those who are deemed prospective members, and allotting each member of the committee a cer tain number, tho entire list would be covered, and the required num ber obtained. The Hoseburg Commercial Club has the best equipped and maintained club rooms of any similar body in the state in towns of Its size, and In order to maintain them properly it is necessary to increase tho revenue from membership dues. When the board of trustees reduced the price of all amusements (o lis members Us receipts naturally decreased in pro portion and the net profits from the club rooms plus the receipts from dues are not sufficient to meet tho expenses of management and upkeep. o part or this money Is used for the :uhlicity department of the club.
