THE -MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1902. 5 THREE MEN SIGNED Vigneux Has Nadeau, Mur dock and .Kostai. HE CONTRACTS yF0R TWO MORE Anderson aad Van Bnren Are to Be Retained President Lucas Has Glendon's Fine for Jnmping Cat Down to $100. Players signed by Portland Nadeau and Murdock, outfielders. Kostai, pitcher. To be slimed . Anderson. second-baseman. Van 'Buren, center-fielder. Manager "Vigneux, of the Portland base ball Club, announced yesterday that he has signed three players for the coming season, and that within a week, or so he will have the signatures of two more to contracts. The engagement of Na deau, the promising Eastern fielder, had been previously stated. Murdock. the runner of the It-ague, was picked up last week, and Mr. Vigneux thinks that In him he has made an acquisition. Murdock certainly made a splendid fielding rec ord during the part of the season that he played with Portland. He stood above the average In batting, and there ar.e great expectations of him. An Idea of what Joe Kostai can do may be gleaned from the scores during the latter end of the season. Kostai pitched 32 games for Spokane before his release by that team and his engagement by Portland. He was worn out when he came down from the Eastern "Washington city, but still he pitched good ball. Anderson and Van Buren will be signed as soon as they have time to afilx their signatures to contracts. Anderson was In town yesterday, but he had to leave In a hurry because Van Buren wanted him to come up to Hood River and do some work on the timber claim which the two have taken up. Both players have been working on the claim ever since the sea son closed, and they have been deluding their friends with the Idea that they were out bear hunting and were preparing a shipment of venison to Portland. They, may have killed a deer or two, but there Is no record of the hunt, so far as the promised venison Is concerned. None came to Portland, but probably Andy and Rube have Siamese appetites and ate all that they killed, numbering . Both the boys will remain on the claim 10 days longer, and will then come back to Port land and stay for the "Winter. Pitcher "Wltbcck will probably not play with Portland next year. He will be ad mitted to the bar In the Spring, and he has written to Manager Vigneux for his .release. "Wltbeek says he wishes to re main at his home In Schncctady, N. "Y., and fLB his mother Is all alone he has no desire to leave her to make another trip west "Witbeck is a student at Union College, and he has pitched professional baseball during the vacations. President Lucas, of the Pacific North west League, when he arrived at Helend last week, after his visit to the magnates of the -East, showed a balance of $6000 in the guarantee fund for the six clubs Portland, Tacoma, Seattle, Spokane, Hel ena and Butte. Mr. Lucas declined to talk about the enlargement of the league, and, according to the Butte Inter-Moun-taln, he said that an Eastern man with plenty of money wanted to go Into, the Salt Lake proposition, but he did not of fer any encouragement, as ho thought the local people should carry the club through. Continuing, Mr. Lucas said: "I ' did the best I could for the league while in the meeting. I succeeded in get ting Martin Glendon's fine, cut from SG00 to $100 after a fight, and Portland can now get him back If its wants him. I worked hard for that, but I don't sup pose Portland will give me any credit for it." Glendon Jumped to the California league, and the Portland people Jumped on President Lucas In all sorts of ways because of the heavy fine lmpos&l. Glen don can return to Portland now. "In all probability the California League will Join the National Association of Minor Leagues. I will leave shortly to make negotiations with that league with a view to inducing it to Join. "When that Is accomplished there will be no place for the Jumping player. In New Tork and Chicago the meeting accomplished a great aeai or good, hc have settled many a difficult question- While the rival leagues were warring every player held' out for a high salary, and the result was that Manager Dugdale found players asking for,J2E0 per month that can now be had for $150. The result Is that "Dug" is happy and gained nine pounds on his trip. . Tle peace declared at Chicago by the terms of which the American As sociation enters the National Association of Minor Leagues means everything to baseball, not only through the East, but in the Pacific Northwest. By the terms of the compact the American Association on its own "application becomes a mem ber of the National Asjo61atlon In good standing, and this fact alone is a victory for the latter the organization which has been -anxious to do anything In Its power to aia in tne settlement of all differ ences. That meeting blocked the Immi nent combination of the American As sociation, the new Southern League and the California League a combination which would have worked Irreparable harm to the National game and would have crippled us In the Northwest greatly. It makes reasonable salaries possible from this time on. As It now stands, players will have difficulty in securing b. position if they Jump their contracts. California Is now the only Mecca for the contract-jumper, and a four-team league cannot use all the gentry of this class In the country. The question of play ers was settled by permitting all contracts made prior to October 29 of this year to stand, except in the case of players taken from the "Western League by the Ameri can Association since the close of the season and vice versa. All players signed by the American prior to October 29 bo longing to other minor leagues will be returned." Of course the Pacific Northwest and the National are not to be compared, but "Wlggs was a factor In pitching Helena from Its early rank In the rear into third plice, where the team finished with a credit of .546, says the Cincinnati En quirer. Records of Wlgs work, now held in Redland show that he won 27 games' and lost 1C, a winning credit of .C2S. In these 43 games ho faced 14S3 batsmen, and was touched .up for Just 270 safeties, the united batting efforts against him yield ing but .182 a team average that is re markably email. Just once In all these contests was he knocked off the slab, and Just' once did he lose control and by the presentation of several bases on balls gave a game away. Control, Judging from these records, seems to be a strong' point with him. In only eight of the 43 games did the- hitting of the opposition reach double figures, and In those eight off days S9, or over one-third of the year's total swats, were made. Wlggs pitched three two-hit games, four three-hit games, five, four-hit games, five in which five hits -"rs made, and four in which -six hits were the limit. He enjoyed a run. of nine .' successive victories in July, and four of these were shut-outs. In which the pther fellows made but one dozen hits In the aggregate. Of course, followers of the ' Red cause know that the great test of Wlggs worth is to come, but as President Garry Herrmann truly says, his record looks good. The greatest pitching feat to Wlggs credit was a l-to-0 12-lnnlng vlc tory In which Helena beat Portland and George Engel, the Cincinnati boy. A good prospect for getting Thiery and Llppert, of the Three I League, exists, says the Helena Record. The managers of the Helena team can procure these flayers now. Both Thiery and Llppert proved themselves good players, although neither shone to any particular degree above others of the local men. However, both are strong with the stick, and ench kept close supervision of hts particular garden. Either would be a valuable man on the Helena team. Arrangenfbnts for new material bave not been definitely made. Both President Goodklnd and Man ager Flannery are looking about, and they are at this time corresponding with sev eral Eastern men, "The new faces will belong to fast men," said President GoodRlnd the other day. . "We do not intend to get .any but the best procurable for the money. The Helena, team Is gofngto Btart next season with a bunch of pennint-winners. And. It is going to be a team which will keep Its work right up. Our reserved players, of course, are too well known to talk about at this time. The new ones will be as good." t SEASON OVER AT PACIFIC. 1002 Team Too -Light to "Win Many Victories.. PACIFIC UNIVERSITY, Forest Grove, Nov. 29. (Special.) Thanksgiving recess ends tomorrow, and classes will resume worlc The Thanksgiving game with Cor vallls ends the footbalf season, and al though on the whole It has been rather unsatisfactory as to victories. It Is exactly what might have been expected. This season's experience demonstrates that a team weighing only 147 pounds stands no chance with so much heavier men on Ore gon fields. More weight must be had next season. Although largely new men, thejy have been put in splendid shape by Coach McFadden, of whose coaching all speak In the highest terms. The schedule played this season has been a very heavy one. In cluding games with all the aspirants for Northwest championship honors except the University of Washington. The one bright spot In the list Is the victory over the Washington Agricultural College" eleven at Pullman. Although outweighed In almost every game played, injuries have been surprisingly few, and In all the ganies credit has been given for gritty, scientific football.. The work of the team has done -something for clean athletics? The Idaho-Pullman teams, whose contests are usually characterized by slugging, played especially clean football this sea son, perhaps profiting In this respect from the object lesson given them both by the Pacific eleven, everywhere spectators have commented upon the clean tactics pursued by the Pacific team. The election of a captain 'for next season win take place soon. Philbrook and Barnet are both eligible for the place with the chances perhaps In favor of the latter. Barnet has played an especially good game this season, and being behind the line would perhapsbe better for the place. Ecdlenton Chosen Captain. DRAIN, Or.. Nov. 30. (Special.) At a meeting of the football squad of the Nor mal school held yesterday It was decided to - close the season; and the further games, which were partially arranged for. were dropped. H. B. Eaton, 1905, was elect ed manager for the season of 1903. Coach Hibbard is well satisfied with the results of the season, taking into consid eration the facts .that this Is .only the second year that the Normal has put a regularly organized team into the field, and that one-half the available material for the team at the opening of the sea son were men of inexperience. In all, the team played five games this season; two of which were ties, one was Won, and two were lost; one of those which were lost being duo to -the fact that the opposing team had been given the Normal's signals. Only xme really desirable game was missed, and that was with the Ashland Normal, who were scheduled to play on their return from the Willamette Valley, but failed to materialize. As Drain de feated Roseburg by a score of 11 earlier In the season, and Ashland only scored ' 15 aaglnst the same team, It promised to be a moEt even struggle. Basket-ball teams, of both- ladles and men, are being organized, and will work Indoors throughout the winter. Football Officers nt Corvallls. CORVALLIS, Nov. 30. (Special.) At a meeting last night the Oregon Agricul tural College football team elected Burt Pllklngton captain and Allan Bates man ager, for the season of next year. 1 FITZ AND JEFF TO BOX. Present Ilenvy Weifcht Champion to Sparse With Defeated Pugilist.. Arrangements have been completed for a boxing contest between Bob Fltzsim mpns and Jim Jeffries, the present and past champion heavy-weights, to take place at the Exposition building some time this week. The two great pugilists will spar for points, and a very scientific contest Is expected between the man who discov ered the solar pfexus blow and who was defeated by It by his adversary. Swanson, of -Alblna, and Freeman, of Oregon City, had a lively set-to at Rai nier Saturday night, and at the end of 15 rounds Referee Martin Denny declared tho contest a draw. The boys kept at work from the first until the last tap of the gong, and. they kept the crowd, on the tip of excitement. Freeman showed up so cleverly that there is some talk of ar ranging a match between him and Mur ray. Speculation upon the result of the Cor-bett-McGovern fight, the scene of which, according to dispatches, has been trans ferred from Louisville to Baltimore, Is rife locally. Each of the fighters has a number of supporters, all of whom declare that a jaw punch will win the fight, Cor bett won the first fight with such a punch after the hardest kind of work, and the experts claim that the same sort of blow, whether delivered by him or by Terry, will again provo anvinner. Tommy Ryan and Jack Root are matched to go 10 rounds at Kansas City December 16. The question of referee was left opn until today. Although "Kid" McCoy announced his re-entrance Into tho prizerlng several months ago, he has not yet succeeded In getting on a match. He was matched to fight Marvin. Hart at the International A,thletlc Club, Fort Erie, but Manager Herman at the last mement decided to call the bout off. McCoy is In .active training, nevertheless, in the hope -that something may turn up. McCoy's trouble In securing matches seems to ba that he is in a class by himself as regards weight. Weighing 164 pounds at the lowest, he la too heavy for a middle-weight and not heavy enough to make a formidable op ponent for the leading heavy-weights. Tommy Ryan and Jack O'Brien are about the only fighters within hailing distance of McCoy's weight who on form would be able to give the Hoosier an argument. Bill Doherty, the Australian heavy weight champion, will arrive in the United States within a few weeks, and his first appearance In tho ring on this side Is being eagerly watched for by ring patrons. Tho fact that Australia has turned out so many good fighters, and that Bob Fitz edmmons halls from the Antipodes, Is an argument in Itself that Doherty may prove to be a surprise party for some of our leading heavy-weights. Permission has been rranted to the town of Krcmtschug, In Russia, to establish a commer cial scnool on tho condition that only 40 per cent of Jews should be admitted. PUNTS AND PLACE KICKS INTERCOLLEGIATE CHAMPIONSHIP 41 REMAINS UNSETTLED. No Northwest Team Has Established a Valid Claim' to the Title. Aithought the football season of 1902 in the Pacific Northwest is practically over, the intercollegiate championship .question has not-been settled In favor of .any one team and the claims f6r that honor- are mostly on paper." Probably never before In the history of Northwest football has there been a year oo full of surprises and scores contrary to general expectations and the dope book as this one has. The whole trouble this year was occa sioned by the fact that Washington re fused to meet Oregon, and that Albany surprised everyone by putting out a team way ahead of its class. Instead of de feating Albany by a good score, as was to be expected, Oregon simply tied the col lege team, and after that there were two teams In the first place for-the champion ship. Then along came Washington, and full of remembrances or tne nzzie or. last year's track meet with the Webfoots, rose In ire, and refused to meet tho t.ugene men. More complications. Washington claims the championship, but It Is doubtful whether Its voice will have much weight In the matter, and ae It stands today, there Is no champion team, and there will probably not be one this year. Tho matter of the Interscholastic cham pionship of the state is as badly tangled ud as the intercollegiate squabble. All Jeams that have defeated anybody at all have bld3 in for the honor, and it is in deed remarkable to see tho ilumber of schools with teams that are wonders. Eu gene High School is prominent in the gen eral demand for the title of, state cham pionship, basing the demand on the fact that a game could not be arranged with Portland Academy, alleging that the acad emy boys backed out! Eugene should re member that Pendleton has a good team, and The Dalles and other Eastern Oregon ' towns, and that merely challenging a team dees not necessarily imply victory over it. Besides, as far as the academy is con cerned, it does not claim the state cham pionship, but merely of Portland, which it has won fairly from the other teams In the city, In a hard-fought race. Eugene should learn to base records on games played on the grid, and not those which are fought out in the news columns. Before the season finally comes to a close, the teams from the Medical and Dental Colleges should line up. and test each other's prowess. These teams are In a class by themselves, having In their lines men who have had much experience, and who will put up a good game of ball on any grid. The game that was pulled off several years ago between the Medics and the Amateur Blackstones was one of the most spectacular and Interesting con tests that was ever played on a local field, and another game this year of the same class would be equally popular. Come along, ye tooth carpenters and sawbones, and show which profession 13 tho nobler. It has been whispered that a game may come on Saturday next, but thus far the proceedings and negotiations are shrouded In mystery, and tangled up in a way that would do credit to the scrap between the Universities of Oregon and Washington football managers. It Is to regretted that the proposed game between Albany and Corvallls has been called off, afl because one of the managers was not as swift In answering his cor respondence as the other manager thought' he should be. It was very hard In the first place to get the game scheduled and ar ranged for, and now, a week before the final date, comes the announcement that everything Is off. The rivalry which has heretofore existed between the two Insti tutions will be Intensified, and no good at all will come from calling off of the scheduled contest. It looks very much as though both teams are glad the match Is off, and In all probability they will con tinue to play out the season .oil-paper. Pacific University has workcdisiard this season, and has sent forth a team that does credit to Coach McFadden, when It Is considered that he had a very limited field to get men from in the beginning of the season, and even the material that he did have was very light. The men on the team' have put up good ball, and have a dean record as far as scrapping and wrangling goes, a record that many of the other institutions in the Northwest should be proud to have, and should endeavor -to Imitate". Pacific has bucked up against hard propositions this year, and at all times has borne defeat gracefully, and has refrained from butting Into print at the least opportunity. Coach Charles Terapleton, of the Hill Military Academy team, has succeeded In turning out a rattling good team late In the season. Early In the Fall, the Hill team did not show up remarkably well, but In the last games with Portland Acad emy and Portland High School, excellent team work was displayed, and a winning spirit was evinced, buth of which quali ties were a trifle lacking in the early games of the season. Coach Temploton has worked hard with the boys, and If he Is to be secured again next year, will have a team that will be heard' from. There Is more to the punting or kicking of a football than is evident to the unin itiated spectator. To the latter, the full back merely boots the ball as. far as he can; If for a long distance, good and well, and measures the skill of the punting by the distance covered. An estimate of that kind is only partly right, for a real full back can control the ball. Not only should he be able to kick from 50 to 60 yards, but he should be able to place the "ball, and, more valuable still, give .It a twist that makes it difficult or impossible to hold if caught in the air. This twist really cor responds to the English put on a billiard ball and acts somewhat In the same way., Thlsxla produced by dropping the ball on the foot In a certain way when the ball Is received from the center rush for a kick. It can be easily seen what value there Is to this kick, because with two fast ends to get down the field on kicks, a fumble by a man on the opposing side appointed to run the ball back Is apt to bo fatal. The Seattle critics are unanimous In their praise for Coach Knight, of the Uni versity of Washington team, who has suc ceeded In turning out a winning team from very unpromising material. The 'Times says: . "When the football eeason opened this Pall tho outlook was pretty dark for the State "U-" It was Generally conceded at that time that Pullman would be a great deal tho stroncer. As a matter of fact, it Is to be doubted If the general student-body had any great amount of faith In Coach Knight. Suffice It ao say, there has been, as usual, more or less knock ing against the methods since he took the team In hand. At that, however, James Knight has not only been tho best coach Washington ever had, but ho has certainly turned out the best team of her history. He has done this In the face of overwhelming odds. Time and again he has been approached by me faction, with an end of getting some member of their clique on the team. That little game has been worked In the -past, and always to 'the detriment of football. Coach Knight, absolutely refusing to ac knowledge any clique or fact'on, "has made the men work for their positions. No matter how popular a student might be, he failed to mako the "varsity unless he earned his spurs by tho hardest kind of work. The slightest sljn of shirking, and tho man was put on the 3ldt lines. Knight pursued merely the polity of Eastern Institutions, and as a result turned out' the championship team of the Northwest. So Shipping; Moving. The high wind on the river prevented shipping from moving up or down. The wires to Astoria were In trouble for the greater part, of the day and. nothing was reported from the- lower harbor. With such a gale as was raging in this vicinity, it Is probable that Bhlps kept welt off shore, and it would no.t be surprising If some disasters were reported when it clears away. ADVERTISED.

Bonner X. B., Pkil N -and Blaclc Slaclc W1U Cause Xively Bidding Death of Altamont. Cris Simpson Intends to retire from tho turf entirely, and he will "soon sell the Ja. or 20 thoroughbreds which he retained after the recent sale'. Among these are Bonner N. B 2:12V?s; Phil N. and Mack Mack. These three are wanted by a number of people, but,, as no price for them has been set. no- terms have been made. In another list are William C. Bonner Belle, Hazel S. and Trilby S., by Bonner N. B., of the 3 and 2-year-old class. Two of these are wanted by local horse men, but, as In tho previous case, the price has. not been determined. One team of. Simpson's, which Is particularly de sired, ik one that he is the least disposed to lose. It consists of tho Bentons, and It is" considered one of the finest polo terfms In the state. Mr. Simpson had an offer for it the other night, but the figure, although good, was not up to his mark. Altamont, the sire of Klamath, and one of the greatest sires of speed that ever lived, died at Blnghamton, Cal., on No vember 13, at tho age of 27 years. Alta mont was a native of Kentucky, and he was purchased at Lexington, in 1S77, by Jay Beach, of Fort Klamath, Or. Kla math stood a trip of 21 days from the East to Redding, Cal., and he went thence over 250 miles of rough road to Klamath. Altamont was first started In a race at Yreka, Cal.x, when 5 years old, winning his race and getting his record of 2:44. Tn the Fall of 18S3 Mr. Beach moved to Dll- ley, Or., and three years later to "Van couver, Wash.,, where Altamont s career may be said to have really begun with the season of 18S7. His name is credited In the year book, and 50 standard per formers are credited to him. Tho most noted of Altamont's get are Chehalls, 2:044, holder of the world's champion two-mile record for pacers of 4:19t; Del Norte. 2:0$; Ella T., 2:08H". Doc Sperry, 2:09; Pathmont, 2:09, and the trotters Alameda, 2:09V4, and Atlas, 2:09ft. Alta mont died the property of J. M. Nelson, of Alameda, who purchased him from Jay Beach a few years ago. The Horse Review, of Chicago, a stand ard joiirnal, has this to say of Prince Di rect, our former Freddy C.fralsed by the Clancy3, of Seattle, and sold for" the grand circuit: "One of our contemporaries, referring to the wonderful pony. Prince Direct. 2:07, team record. 2:05, says that- he 'didn't do a great deal on the grand circuit this year.' If this Is so, the question Is, How much has a horse got to do to be of any account? Prince Direct won but two races, It Is true, but he was placed In no less than 11. The Review's table of money-winners on the grand circuit, printed In ou$ issue of October 7, shows that a total of 124 pacers started and wonj money on the circuit during the season, and among these Prince Direct stood fifth just four won more money, and 119 wroir less. It seems to us that the little fellow 'did a great deal, after all." The table of Scott Hudson's campaign of 1902 shows " that he won 43 races 107 heats and $Sq,445 with 12 horses. Simply wonderful! Monroe Chief, 2:1SV4, was one of the stoutest trotting stallions ever cam paigned. His career was a long one, and 'his record of S3 winning heats In 2:30 or better, all to a high-wheel sulky, was never beaten by a stallion. This enduring quality Is also conspicuous In his get. This year his 14-year-old trotting son, Richmond Chief, has reduced his record from 2:14 to 2:lj, and his 16-year-old pac ing son, Monroe S., .has lowered his record of 2:20, of 11 years standing; to 2:1G4.

MANILA, Nov. 20. Captain Pershing with CO men, has completed a march across the Island of Mindanao from Camp Vlcar3 to Illgan. This Is possibly the first time that white men have made the journey. Captain Pershing visited the Villages of Madaya and Marapui. On his way to Madaya he found the Moroswere sur prised to) learn that Americans were not monsters 10 feet tall with horns and tails. At Marapui he addressed 500 Moros, tell ing them of the friendly purposes of the Americans. Representatives of the Nato and Bocayutan tribes, whlph are now at war, asked Captain Pershing to arbitrate the differences between them. The Captain agreed to visit them and lve his answer on-'Tils return to Camp "Mlcars. No hostility was shown toward the column on the march.

The fate of tho other frlendlies is unknown. Hard to Establish Agriculture. MANILA, Nov. 30. The efforts to re store agriculture In the Philippines have been blocked by a dearth of field animals. Ninety per cent of the carabaas died In the original epidemic of rinderpest and of the small number left many have since died. The government had planned an extensive Importation of these animals to meet the crying need and had arranged to have them immunized. It was forced to aban don this plan on account of the lack of money to meet the purchases. The general cultivation of the plantations I3 Impossi ble without them and the absence of any Immediate prospect of getting the field animals leaves the agricultural situation In a serious condition.
