game were of this order. Kadeau's work
was also of the-star order in every way.
He made two hlu In his three times at

fact, all of the team played good ball,
Harlow being the only one that was at
all wild, and his errors were excusable.
The universal opinion of tho fans of this
city is that the Portland team will finish
near the head of the possession, if they
continue to Improve as they have during
this series, for they are all ball players
from the ground up. The score:

RULING ON RULES.
Interpretation Given by President
Palltamv of Natlonala.
NEW YORK. April li-In a circular to
managers, captains and players .of the Na
tional League and American League.
President H. C Pulllam lays down Uie
following constructions on such playing
rules as are deemed susceptible of more
than one Interpretation:
Rule 29 (pitcher's position) The pitcher.
In taking his position, shall place no part
of either foot back of the rubber, nor shall
he take more than one step In delivering
the ball to the batsman. This construc
tion does away with all preliminary steps
either to the rear of or'to the side of the
rubber.
Rule 33, section S (balking) Construct
as meaning that both feet of the catcher
must be inside the catcher's lines.
Rule 40 (batting) A foul tip must go
sharp from the bat. If the ball rise from
bat to catcher as In the case of attempted
bunting of a 'very low ball, it will be
ruled as a foul fly.
Rule 46, -section 3 (batsman is out) The
batsman will be declared out at once it he
makes any motion or attempt at Interfer
ence with the throwing of or the catching
of the ball by the catcher.
Rule 47. section 4 (becomes a baserunner)
The batsman must make a palpable at
tempt at being hit. In no case will he be
allowed to become a runner as the result
of being hit by a slowly delivered ball, the
umpire to be a Judge of the speed of such
ball.
Rule BL section 6 (base runners are out)
Attention of players is called to this rule,
requiring runners to keep within the three
foot lines In going to first, unless to avoid
attempting to field a batted balL
Rule 53 (catching) This rule Is con
structed literally, and will be lnforced lit
erally, with the exception of the Imposi
tion of the $5 fine, in which case the print
ed rules are In error.
Rule 67 (field rules) Will be enforced
literally.

April 12. (Special) The 'varsity ath

"It Is impossible." said Captain Payne,
"to know Just what the strength of Ore

expect to see some good records made
when we pull oft our regular tryout the

showing irp exceptionally well, and the
old "varsity heroes, who are only half
practicing, will be obliged to change their
tactics it they expect to travel with Ore
gon this season.
A large force Is at work on the new
athletic field and beyond a doubt the local
nnirerslty will have the best athletic
arena in the sute when the work Is com
pleted. The western end of the Klncald
field is being raised four feet and the
dirt that Is being used for this ouroose
is absolutely free from stones. The super

KNIGHT KEEPS MEN BUSY.
Bad Weather Has Effect on Sonnd
Collesilana Practice.
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.
April 12. (SpedaL) The closing weeks at
the University of Washington promise to
be exceedingly busy ones for the col
legians In all departments of athletics.
Coach Knight, who has now had com
plete charge of the different sports for
over a week, has between 50 and 73 men
who are striving for honors on the ath
letic track and on the baseball diamond.
The weather has been so cold that tho
"RACKER--DACHSHUND
practice work has been rather slow, and
If warmer weather does not soon greet
the athletes the first games and con
teats may prove to be poor exhibitions of
athletic skill.
Of the new men who are making excel
lent showings in the sprinU'and the runs.
Fowler, Thompson, Dana, Ford and Long
fellow might be given very creditable
mention. Fowler and Thompson will
both run a good iCO-yard dash, and in the
quarter Thompson may be a close com
petitor to some of the old stars, while
Fowler will likely also be a surprise in
the 230-yard dash. Dana in the half mile
Is keeping within close distance of Cap
tain Pearson and should be able to pull
a place for the "U In that event. Ford
and Longfellow, Washington's two-mllers,
are running side by side. Both are young
sters, but are cutting the distance .under
U minutes with comparative ease.
Of the newcomers, however, the two
men who will make the most brilliant
exhibitions are undoubtedly Tlbbals and
McCrory. Tlbbals entered the "U" with
a glowing record, having (be reputation
of being the best High-School athlete the
State of Washington ever produced. ' It
is also thought that young McCrory will
establish a new Northwest record in the
mile run. Scherer is continuing to Im
prove in both the Weight events.
On the baseball field the men. have not
as yet begun to get into good condition.
Speldell. Teats and Blinker are fully up
to the standard that has been anticipated.
but the rest of the bunch, while making
fairly good showings, will be compelled
to make marked Improvement if Wash
ington is to have a championship aggre
gation. In the practice games with P.
N. L. League, the weakest part of the
team seemed to be its batter), and it is
expected that Coach Knight will keep
the boys busy with the stick during the
next two weeks of practice.
The sport that is now attracting more
attention than any other branch of the
athletics is, beyond a doubt, rowing. The
fact that the race with the University of
uauiornia nas Decome practically a cer
tainty has brought out a number of good
men to compete for places at the oar..
The old gigs have been repaired and will
be used up until about a week before the
race, when it is hoped the University can
secure another boat for the last few days
of practice and for the day of the race.
A few difficulties have yet to be over
come before a contract can be signed with
the Calltomlans. but if a couple of hun
dred dollars can be raised from the citi
zens of Seattle on or about June 1, the
first Intercollegiate rowing to take place
on the Pacific Coast will likely be pulled
off In Seattle. The contest this Spring
will be In a four-oared boat Instead of
the eight, as both Institutions feel that
they are new at the sport.
AT INANIMATE TARGETS.
Shooters for Great American Handi

retary of the Interstate Association,
speaking of the tournament, said:
"From the present outlook this will be
one of the most successful shooU ever

number of contestants with the post en

CHICAGO. April 12. Only 24 of the 114

Horsemen bere consider the small per

illness are responsible for nearly half of

( Race Ron Today, If Weather
la Similar.
WEYMOUTH. England. April 12. There
Is an agreement of opinion hat the de
feat of the challenger by Shamrock I on
time allowance yesterday was entirely
due to a weather fluke and gives no
reason tor reducing the handicap. The
same conditions, therefore, will probably
govern tomorrow's race, unless the
weather is light, when the time allowance
to the ex-challenger may be increased.
Colonel NelL a leading Clyde amateur
yachtsman, who was aboard the Sham
rock I yesterday, said to tne Associated
Press correspondent:
"The challenger made an absolute ex
hibition of us on the first round. A
weather fluke gave us the race. I am con
vinced that there is no weather nor any
point of sailing on which Shamrock I
can hold the challenger."'
Designer Fife arrived here today to see
tomorrows racing. He declined to be

day's performance was good enough for
him. He replied that he would rather
see the challenger win by half an hour,
but it could easily be seen from his genial
and pleasant manner that he was well
satisfied with the course of events.
Experts Expreaa Oplnlona.
LONDON. April 11 T. F. Day. the edi
tor of The Rudder, expresses the opinion
that in view of the showing she made in
Saturday's race. Shamrock III is the
best boat the British have ever had and
that the Reliance must be five minutes
faster than the Columbia over a 30-mlle
course In a breeze and much more In
tight airs to ensure America keeping
the cup.
The Dally News thinks that if tho chal
lenger la only 64 minutes better than
a 5-year-old boat on a 30-mile course,
she has little chance of beating the Re
liance, considering that the Americans
have always gone one better.
The Times considers that Saturday's
race was merely a question of pilotage
and the shifting of the wind than a lack
of speed on the part of the challenger.

WAR STARTS TOMORROW.
After Today Rival Baseball Leagnea
Will Begin Active FljchtlnR.
With the dawn of tomorows sun, the
baseball war about which so much has
been written and discussed both pro and
con, will be on In full force. The sched
ule has been printed end reports from
the various teams In the league show that
every team is a pennant winner on paper
but as only one team cin capture the
flag, there are bound to be many disap
pointments in store for the tans of the
various towns in the circuit.
At this early stage, the Portland Na
tionals seem to be as strong as any
t(am In the league, and the local minage
ment seems to think they have even bet
ter than an even break tor the pennant.
At home the Nationals will play S4 games,
with six weeks of conducting dates with
the Browns, and they will play 78 games
abroad. Spokane will play the opening
game with the Nationals at Hawthorne

The schedule as printed in -The Ore
gonian yesterday was absolutely correct,
and was authorized by President Lucas.
The, tike schedule which was sent out
from Spokane was a glaring mess of
inaccuracies dreamed out by W. B. Gar
rett, president of the Spokane team,
Garrett telegraphed to President Lucas
for permission to give out the schedule,
but Mr. Lucas had warned him not to do
so. and at the same time wired him that
the schedule was not to be released until
Sunday. April 12. In spite of this warn
ing Garrett gave to the Spokane papers
a schedule he himself made .up. which,
with but few exceptions; is Incorrect, At
no less than three cities be has left out
whole series.
President Lucas was shown the sched
ule which Garrett gave out. and he was
greatly annoyed at the breach of faith
that Garrett had been guilty of. In or
der to head off further publication of
the false schedule, Mr. Lucas sent word
to the various newspapers throughout
the circuit not to reprint the Girrett
schedule, because it was a false one, and
requested them to wait until the correct
sechdule sent out by the Associated Press
appeared. When President Luc is reaches
Spokane. Garrett will be called upon for
an explanation.
IN THE 'BIG LEAGUES.
Teams Carried Average of Thirty
Players In Seaaon of 1003.
Ernest J. Lannlgan. of Philadelphia,
writing for the "Sporting News, has com
piled some Interesting statistics regard
ing the National League season ot 1S02.
From the number of players given op-.
ponuniiies to appear in tne raionai
League's championship battles in the last
campaign, one might well Imagine the
circuit was the old unwieldy 12-club af
fair, for the eight teams tried 240. This
was an average ot 30 ball tossers for each
aggregation a hitherto unprecedented to
tal in major league history. Allowing for
"revolvers" L e., those who played with
two teams brings the number- down to
223, ot whom 102 were battery men (73
pitchers, 34 catchers). 59 were infielders.
and 57 were outfielders. In 1901 the play
ers wearing league livery nurnbered 139.
In 1300 lii men appeared in National
garb, the average (net) per club for the
three seasons being 23.5. 24.3 and 2S.5.
Quantity, not quality, was the note struck
by the league managers last year in their
search tor talent, all the minor leagues
and colleges being scoured for players ot
ability. One hundred and four releases
were written, four players Wall. Magee,
Hendricks and O'Hagan receiving blue
envelopes from both clubs that tempora
rily sheltered them. Walter Brodle was
fired at least three times by the New York
Club and was a Freedmanlte at the sea
son's termination. Tom McCreery got the
boots twice from the Brooklyn team, and
his last quit notice was not withdrawn.
Bill Thomas had two trials by Philadel
phia and the last verdict was "guilty.'
John O'Neill was given his ten days by
Pat Donovan, and then an Injury to Ar
thur Nichols gave him a chance to prove
his worth, and the Cardinals' brainy man
ager recovered himself in time to avoid
an error of Judgment and resigned Mich
ael Joyce's brother.
Tinker a Crackerjack.
The Chicago and New York teams made
the running In employing players and
each required 39 men before the season's
end. As showing 'the value of good man
agement, it may be stated that Chicago
developed two crackerjacks. Joe Tinker,
formerly with Portland, and Carl'Lund
gren, and had some promising youngsters
in hand. New York's gain for the season
consisted in the development of George
Smith as a second baseman and the ac
quisition of the Baltimore "sUrs" whose
value has yet to be shown. Philadelphia
used 33 men. Cincinnati "28. Pittsburg 27,
St. Louis 27, Brooklyn 26 and Boston 2L
Of releases. New York's 23 was the ban
ner showing. Chicago's 22 the next best.
Boston only dispensed with the services
of seven players, and four of these men
were pitchers who were engaged merely
to work in double-headers and relieve the
regular staff.
Two managers who started the season
in command of league teams quit before
the campaign was very far advanced.
Horace S. Fogel. a Philadelphia news
paper man. who had managed the Indian
apolis Club for a time In 1ES7. was selected
by Andrew Freedman to lead the Giants
to Pennantvllie in 1902, and retained his
Job, to the surprise of many, unUI June
11. Then George Smith, who had been
elevated to the team captaincy on June
-, ln J8 Doyle's stead, assumed com
plete "control" and xhe was the New
Yorks leader until the celebrated Balti
more coup, giving way on July 9 to John
J. McGraw. Fogel and Smith were un
doubtedly handicapped in their manage
rial work by interference of the New
York president, but McGraw evidently had
full command of the Giants. Fogel had
trouble with Mathewson and Doyle, and
John J. was fired on- June 18. at a time
when George Smith was posing as the
New York manager.
Chances In Manasera.
The other league team to change mana
gers in mid-Summer was Cincinnati. John
Alexander McFhee resigning as field leader
ot the Reds on July 1L His temporary
successor was Frank C. Bancroft, who
had been In charge of the business end
of the club for a number of years, and
Banny gladly relinquished control of the
nJ destinies to Joseph J. Kelley. late
of the Baltimore Club, oh July 30 Mc
Phee, apparently, "resigned" under pres
sure, but was undoubtedly happy to be
relieved of the managership, though prob
ably sore at the method employed to sever
his connection with the club. "King Bill"
was not blamed In Redland for the poor
showing, of the Queen City team, he being
nandlcaped by Brush's peculiar and par
simonious policies. A mistake during the
McFhee regime was the release of Harry
Bay. While Bancroft was in charge the
releases of Beck and Currie were written
and Poole was secured. Kelley had the
advantage of unhampered control of the
players and a liberal management after
the team changed hands.
Out of the 223 leaguers of 1902. one man
Tom Maher, of Phlladelphla-merely ap
peared as a substitute batter and had
no chance at all In field duty. One hun
dred and twenty-five Nationallsu were
epeclalists, sticking to one position, while
49 players tried their luck in two posi
tions and 31 In three. Eleven leaguers
nlade attempts to fill four positions, half
a dozen tried their lnev in v. .

six and two in seven. The latter pair were
uunn ana iionus Wagner, the New
Yorker not appearing behind the bat nor
at first and the PltUburger falling to don
the mask and passing up the third corner
as welL "Rube" Vlckers was the one
leaguer to attempt to fill both batting
positions and his appearance behind the
bat at Pittsburg. October 4. lasted four
innings, and resulted In six passed balls.
Roger Bresnahan and Lew McAllister are
probably the only players today In the
major leagues who can do duty both as
pitcher and catcher. The U leaguers who
worked In five or more positions durirnr
1902 were:

One hundred and forty-one leaguers qual
ified for batting averages by playing -in
15 or more games, but Nick Young, or
whoever compiles the figures, awarded hit
ting percentages to 139 Individuals, forget
ting "Dusty Bob" Rhoades of the Chicago
Club and Harry Felix of the Philadelphia'
team. Both pitchers engaged In 16 con
tests, the Chlcagoan doing straight duty
on the rubber and the Phlladelphlan add
ing to bis box labors by attempt to cover
third during Halman's necessary absence
from the game. Neither slabman swung
hU willow In such a manner as to imperil
Clarry Beaumont's title to. the batting
crown, nor did either of the passed-over
pitchers disturb the atmosphere to such an
extent that Malcolm Eason's position at
the bottom of the list was endangered.
Rhoades hit for 222. which sandwiched
him in between "Dusty" Miller and
"Dutch Hartman. while Harry Felix's
.111 entitles him to a place between two
college pitchers Harry Thlelman and Carl
Lundgren.
Wealc and Heavy Hitters.
Of the S7 leaguers who participated in
less than 15 contests, no less than 26 had
percentages represented by three zeros.
Roy Hale did not gather a safety during
his eight-game career with the Bean-eaters,
and as he also failed to manufacture
a blngle with the Baltimore1 Americans in
three contests, it is safe to predict that
the CaUfornlan will not be among the
leading stickers In the association this
season. "Tacks" Latimer had a percent
age ot .Oil la eight games, Roscoe MUlerV
figure for ten contesU was .045 and Wlile
Popp's foroine .017. These were the start
Ilngty small figures recorded In the also
ran class. Other players did better. Hop

cured .666 at Herrmann vllle, Libe Wash
burn batted for .444 in six games and these
men hit better than, -300 in ten contests:
Cy Voorhees. .SO; Harry Schlafly. .333;

Ho TV They Behaved.
The behavior of the players in the field
was batter than in 1901, though there is
lots ot room for Improvement. The knowl
edge that the league's Board of Control
would exercise iU authority in Decaltztng
"kicking- players had a deterrent effect
on rowdyism. There were, however, some
disgraceful episodes, the Clarke-Tenney,
Conroy-TInker and Hulswltt-Maloney
fights among the number. Worst of all,
was tho assault of Umpire Ernslle by
Outfielder J. Jone-. of the New Yorks.
The Plttsburga appear to have led in

A group of lawyers were discussing wills
the other day, and Incidentally deploring
the prevailing tendency of their profes
sion to overload such Instruments with
useless redundancies. Said one:
"I was over In New Jersey yesterday as
a witness to the probating of the will of
the late Judge Leslie W. Russell. It was
simplicity and brevity Itself. Approxi
mately it said: I give everything I have
to my wife. Then. Instead of having
seven pages of In the event of her death.
I do give, devise and bequeath. etc. It
merely added: 'Reversion to our chil
dren." "In fact." continued the lawyer, "there
was only one Instance of surplusage in
the will, which occupied about a sheet of
note paper. To me It was touching and
beautiful and characteristic of the man.
It ran like this:
" 'I also bequeath to my wife my undy
ing love and trust, '

There was a babel of voices going on
all during the day at the Louisville &
Nashville depot. Fourteen passenger
trains, carrying; from ten to 13 coaches
each, departed between the hours of 1
in the morning and 10 at night. Bo
dense was the crowd that the depot pas
senger agent had to use a megaphone
tor giving instructions. locating lost per
sons, restoring to frenzied mothers strayed
babies and children, announcing the de
parture of. trains, where they were to
stop and tne like.
Amid all the confusion of tongues ther
came a cry. A baby was found waddling
about, smiling at the faces of the multi
tude of strangers. The agent got it In
his arms and shouted: "Who has lost
a baby about 3 years old. blue eyes,
dressed in white, gold chain around Ita
neck?" Before he could proceed further
the distracted mother was passionately
kissing the strayed member of her fam
ily.
