Another certain, can now question the lactical "bush leaguer" is up there in the ability of the second "bush league majors. Another man has beer yanked from tho tall and uncut ano set to work to try his hand with pennant possibility. Jack Hendricks, probably the best known minor league manager in tht country, may yet meet Clarence Row land In a battle for the world's base ball championship, for it isn't at all an improbability that tho Cardinals will win this year and that the White Sox will repeat in the Amer ican league. Hendricks has had a long and suc cessful career in the minors, and a checkered but useful career in the majors. He was a member of the New York Giants when John Mc Graw took charge of that club, and he was ousted pronto from a job as a fly-chaser In the outcld. Now he Is going into the same end of the game and probably will have a bat tle to the death with tho man who chased him from his last major league job. Hendricks has a habit of winning pennants, but he always has had a bankroll behind him. It will be de cidedly interesting to see what his manager. There are many toIk3 who believe i contract was signed between Hend ricks and Dranch Rickey, president of tho Cardinals, last November, when both were in Louisville attend ing the minor league meeting. II can be stated on the most excellent Information that Hendricks did sign a contract at the Louisville meeting but it also can bo positively stated that this contract was treated as nothing more than a scrap of papei when it developed that James Mc Gill, owner of tho Indianapolis club, did not want to part with Hendricks. When ho signed Hendricks believed himself to be a free agent. It Is a fact that negotiations for Hendricks' release were in progress constantly from the time the original contract was destroyed. o "FULTON BETTER THAN COKBETT," SYS OLD TIME! By H. C. HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent) FORTLAND MARKETS; PORTLAND, Jan. 15. (Special.) The week's opening market at North Portland showed an extremely light delivery, offering however a portion of the best quality, and that especially m tho cattle market, that has been shown on the local market for some weeks past. The sales for this week's opening would justify a quotation of 11c for a top on steers, and $8.25 top on "she" stuff. The best load of cat tle in the market Monday morning crossed the scales nt $10.75, with an average weight of 12p2 pounds. If another 50 pounds had been added to tho weight of these very choice cattle. they would easily have commanded 11c. We do not' consider that this represents any advance in price on the top end of tho steer market, but "medium to good" steers, and the same class of heifers showed an easy 25c to 50c advance, as did also all the lower grades, including calves and bulls. The best heifers in today's offering changed hands at $8.25, al though we are only quoting to an 8c top. The following quotations show the rango of prices paid: Medium to choice steers, 510(5) 10.75; good to me dium steers, $8.7f10; common to good steers, $7.258.75; choice cows and heifers, $7.25(5)8; common to good cows and heifers, ?(lfi)7.35; canncrs, $335.50; bull3 $4.50fi7; calves, $7fi 10.25; stockcrs and feeders, $68.50. In the hog market conditions were steady to strong, that is to say, the market was active, with a larger per cent of the offerings passing the scales at the top of the quotations than had been shown in the previous week's market. One or two loads quotations are current in the sheep changed hands nt $15.75, the bulk I department: Western lambs. SU.SOO went at $15, with a few loads at $15.50 if,; valley lambs, $1414.25; year- according to grade and quality. Quo tations are as follows: Prime light, $15.4515.60; prime heavy, $15.50(a 15.65; pigs, $13.G014.50; bulk, $15.50. The sheep market continues steady with the bulk of sales nt the top end. of the quotations and very light of ferings coming forward, which are just about balanced by tho demand. The demand for breeding ewes con tinues very active with a compara tively small supply. The following The Observer's Classified Ads. HELP WANTED NEW YORK, Jan. 16. George Mon roe, formerly a star of the feather weight ranks, and now a white-haired little man, always to bo seen around fight clubs in New York, declared Fred Fulton can defeat Jess Willard. . "It won't take him twenty rounds to do it, cither," the former scrapper said. "I believe Fulton would cut the champion to shreds in a few rounds. Fulton is a great deal better than mo3t fans are willing to admit. 'I've seen Fulton fight and I'm an admirer of the way he does things. Jim Corbet is generally referred to as the cleverest of the big fellows, but this man Fulton is just as clever and he can hit much harder with either hand than Jim could. He is remark ably fast and clever for a big man." Opinions are floating around the country in regular schools since Jess had the bad taste to announce that he would fight. Interest is more pro nounced than in any big scrap since the Jeffries-Johnson affair. The de mand is strong for n championship battle. If Willard really means busi ness and will match himself with Ful ton, he can pack any building he cares to select for the battle. There is no use commenting on anyone else as a probable opponent for the champion, for there is no other who stands out as does the lanky Min nesotan. Any prestige he might have lost through his meeting with Hilly Tate in Little Rock seems to have been brushed aside since reports of the bout really have become scattered about. It now appears that Fulton was far from being a beaten man when the referee announced he had awarded the fight to Tate on a foul. Anyway, the next few days will tell the real talc, for tho men have been matched to do battle again. Fulton has met every big man of any consequence with the sole excep tion of Frank Moran, and now a match has been made for him with .hat big fellow. This bout will bo itaged at New Orleans. Willard said some time ago that if Fulton would lefeat Moran, he could have a whack it the title. So, if he manages to top- I nle the big Pittsburgcr, Jess, it ap pears, will nave 10 no soini'unn;- WANTED Middle aged or elderly lady to take care of 5-month old baby for two hours in the after noon and three hours at night, take care of small apartment and prepare one meal for two adults.
