SEATTLE, "Wash., May 16. (Special.)
It Trtll be decided definitely -within the
lext four days whether D. E. Dugdale.
pormerjy owner and manager of the Seat-
Je Baseball Club, is to be In full control
3f the Portland team.
Despite the fact that the Portland dl-
ectors deny It and Dugdale absolutely
refuses to discuss the matter it can be
stated emphatically that negotiations are
iding for the transfer of the manage-
lent, and perhaps, an interest in the
?ortland franchise to Dugdale.
Tonight Dugdale returned from Port-
Band where he went very ouletlv last
Sunday. He kept out of the way in this
;lty as successfully as he did In Port-
Band, but was found at his home in Dun
Bap. He could not deny that he had been
to Portland, and had met the directors of
le club.
"Nothing was done, nothing was done,"
iras about all the clever baseball manipu
lator would say.
The truth of the matter Is Ducrdale met
the directors of the club this morning and
len he took a street-car ride to kilt time.
fncidentally keep out of sight until the
tternoon train left for Seattle.
The directors told Dugdale that they
panted him to take charge of the team.
ugdale wns not enthusiastic over the
proposition, because the club Is low down
la the race, and he realizes that to build
St up he will have a very difficult task.
Ie will have to take a lot of old players
ia go through the work that should be
lone prior to the opening of the season.
lis and the fact that he likes to live
fn Seattle explains why Dugdale was not
sverly anxious to Jump at the proposi
tion. Several programmes were brought
ip for discussion, and it is up to the
Portland Club to decide the question
some time this week. If the directors ac
cept, Dugdale must take charge of the
team. Ho is right in saying that nothintr
ras actually done, but the matter was
Sett in such a way that big things may
lappen. If Dugdale goes to Portland he
nil be in absolute control of the team.
ind it would not be surprising if he took
in Interest in the stock account.
The Elys, who control half the stock.
k-ould like Dugdale for a manager. "When !
'ortland was in Seattle. Ben Ely, who
represented his brother, "Bones" Ely,
consulted Dugdale about taking the reins.
rhe matter was left in statu quo until
Sunday, when Dugdale was called to the
letropolis of Oregon to meet the busi
ness men who are also interested in the
:lub. At the meeting it was decided that
joth parties should maintain secrecy.
Chat is why Dugdale was so anxious to
reach Dunlap so quietly tonight.
Dugdale is inclined to think that noth
ing will come 01 the negotiations, but
;annot deny that he stands committed to
ro to Portland if his terms are accepted.
VISIT AROUSES THE FANS.
lOugdale Sees Local Stockholders, but
Keeps Mission Secret.
D. E. Dugdale, of Seattle, once more
looms upon the baseball horizon. Dugdale
arrived in Portland yesterday mmornlng.
ras seen on the streets by a number of
eople and then disappeared. His mis
sion to Portland was baseball, this much
a positive fact, but whom he saw and
rtiat may become of his hurried trip is
irouded in a mystery.
Dugdale admitted to several of his
friends that ho came to look over the
Bocal baseball situation. It is not known
phether ho came on an Invitation, or
whether he had grown restless as a
ihlcken farmer and Is once more about to
mswer the call of the diamond. The fat
Seattle mogul saw some of the present
stockholders of the club this is Just as
sure as there is to be a June election.
Irs. Ben Ely, answering the telephone for
ler husband, stated positively that neither
ler husband nor Fred Ely had seen or
lad been in consultation with Dugdale.
Irs. Ely said that they did not even
mow that uugaaie naa Deen in town.
Whoever saw the "baseball pride of Seattle
lid not have a very long session with
llm, for ho departed for home at 3
j'clock.
When It became noised around and the
lews spread over fandom like wild-fire
that Dug was in town, a number of fans
searched the town over in hopes of find
ing him. But whoever had him in tow
cept him out of sight until train time. He
ras seen, however, talked with and ad-
Itted that ho was In Portland to talk
aaseball business. He would not state
rhat his visit had accomplished.
Dugdale's silence was the same high
sign which was used by several of the
:cal magnates. Some of them would not
"ven admit that they had seen Dugdale
cither would they deny it. It was not
their day for talking and In consequence
Lg's vl'sit will remain a mystery until
cater. His trip over here, however, was
roductivo of great excitement among the
fans. Dug's trip to the East Side started
talk of his placing a team in Portland In
the Oregon State League, but such a prop-
bsltlcn Is absmrd. Late In the evening a
(vise fan sprung the story that while Ben
Ely was In Seattle he called upon

adelphia. The Phillies were also too fast
for the Deacon and he has been turned

aid stamping grounds, where saualls and
rough seas are almost unknown.
Aside from the arrival of Dugdale. the

Calls Corbett Gold Brick.
Joe Corbett, well known here, gets the
following from a St. Louis writer:
That St. Louis club seems to Incline to the
cold brick, and it seems that they get It In
the neck oftener than any other organization.
From present appearances it looks as if the
Investment made in the much-heralded Joe
Corbett was likely to prove another sold brick,
for up to the date of this writing the "high
priced Illy" has performed very indifferently
and, if my memory serves me right, he has

he is cracked up to be. and it is dollars to

Multnomah Baseball Team Vill Play
Columbia Again.
The Multnomah baseball team has not
been heard from for some time, and the
explanation is that Manager David
Honeyman has decided not to play any
more games until the nine is in perfect
playing condition, and has had a reason
able amount of practice. Some time ago,
when tho men were only beginning to
practice, the club had a game with Co
lumbia, which had been In form for a
long time, and as a consequence Multno
mah went under. Since then the team has
been practicing several times a week and
Is now getting Into shape.
The next game scheduled Is for Sat
urday, May 28, and will be played with
Columbia. With Multnomah In prime con
dition, this will be a much closer game.
The fact is, however, that Multnomah
will have to scratch to defeat Columbia
after the practice It is having ori tie
Sound this week. But Multnomah Is going
to have the aid of Joe Smith, the old third
baseman and pitcher, and Downs, the
B. S. A. pitched Bob Williams will also
be here before the end of the month play
ing at second. There Is 'the best kind of
material out for the team, and unless
something unexpected turns up in the
amateur line. It will be leading the ama
teurs this Summer.
WILL ROW WASHINGTON.
Portland Senior Crew Going to Seat
tle for Race on Lake Washington.
The race between the Senior crew of
the Portland Rowing Club and the Uni
versity of Washington, announced some
weeks ago, will be rowed on Lake Wash
ington, Seattle, probably on June 4. The
first Intention was to row here, but Wash
ington having sent in a challenge. It was
accepted, and the race will be rowed In
the other city.
The race may be postponed a week to
allow time for the Portland crew to get
Into better condition. The men who will
bo In the crew are: Luders, captain and
bow: Kikley, three; Seeley, two, and
IClng, stroke.
-Washington has a crack crew, which Is
somewhat disgruntled over having been
beaten in the race with California a
short time ago, because it had to row in a
barge, when it had done all Its practicing
in a .shell. There will be no difficulty on
this score in the coming race, as both
crews will have their shells. Washing
ton is very anxious to have this race to
show what it can do when properly
equipped. The Portland oarsmen are
comers, however, and have by no means
done their best so far. This race will bo
excellent practice for them, and put them
Into form early for the North Pacific
regatta next July.

BANKER WOOL CLIP.
Fleeces Good and Unusually Large
Demand for Cattle Reviving. ,
The wool clip of Oregon this year prom
ises to beat the record. In the opinion of
C. J. Mlllis, livestock agent of the O. R. &
N. road, who has Just returned from a
tour of the stockraising country of East
ern Oregon.
"Tho wool clip is now under way and Is
proving exceptionally good," said he to
The Oregonlan yesterday. "The fiber is of
good quality and uniform, strength, be
cause of the uninterrupted growth during
the Winter, no check having occurred to
injure It The fleeces will run a little
heavier than usual, with probably about
the same number as last year, and the
clip of the stale will approximate 25,000,
000 pounds. Oregon Is the second wool
producing state in the Union, Montana
being the first The lamb crop is unusual
ly good this Spring and will average 90
per cent the sheep having come through
the Winter well.
"Cattle are picking up rapidly and own
ers are beginning to look for a strong
movement as soon as the market opens.
There is a more evident disposition to
buy, the very low prices at which stock
is offered proving an Inducement. There
were unusual losses during the Winter,
caused by turning them out on the range
early In March because the supply of hay
was exhausted and the weather was mild.
They were caught in the blizzard of the
third week in March, and a loss of 15 to 20
per, cent was sustained. By the beginning
or middle of July a large number of 1. 2
and 3-year-old steers will be ready to turn
off the ranges. Sheep came through the
Winter without material loss,
"The loss among the, range horses of
Harney and adjoining counties was un
usually severe last Winter, probably as
high as CO per cent On account of their
weakened condition, the woodtlcks got at
them and killed many of them. We had
some Inquiry about horses from agents of
Japan, but no definite contracts have been
made. A large number of range horses is
being purchased for shipment east to the
Middle States and north to Alberta."

PORTLAND, Or., May 16. (To the Ed

Company have ceased to operate lt3 cars
on Second street, and I "have been in
formed that certain city officials have
granted them this privilege without Uhe
penalty of forfeiting their franchise being
enforced.
The terms of the franchise granted to
operate cars on Second street are plain,
explicit and binding. If the terms of
said franchise are not fulfilled b7 the

of the proper city officials to compel them
to- do so, or to forfeit the franchise and
not to give their consent to have the law

lated, thereby causing a loss to property
owners and business men on Second street
If the proper officials do not attend to
their duty In this matter, some of the In

and seek to have right and Justice done
them In this matter.
