10 THE HORNING OBEGOKEAS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY IB, 1905. LUCAS LOSES OUT Baseball Promoter Now Plans New League. DUGDALE AIDS IN THE DEAL Scheme to Wreck Pacific National League Fails, but Attempt Will Be Made to Start a Circuit of Puget Sound Cities. President TV. H. Lucas, of tlio Pacific National League has lost another baseball war. He Is out of that league and 16 trying to start another Northwest circuit- Lucas was supremo until Portland and Seattlo had decided that Lucas was not in sym pathy with those two cities, so the Seat tle and Portland magnates took the hur dles and Joined tho Pacilic Coast League. This action brought about a costly war, costly from financial standpoint, yet at the same time it was the means of fur nishing tho fans with better basebalL When the war started President Lucas gave it out that the Pacific National League would win. He attempted to carry out this statement by invading Califor nia and placing an opposition team in Seattle and in Portland. The local fans refused to cross the river to sec Jack Grim's team play and it was not long be fore Portland was dropped, and for a time it looked as if the Pacific National League would collapse. It managed to struggle through the season and when it closed President Lucas gave it out that the Pacific National Lcaguo was dead. "Walter Wilmot, manager of Butto, and President Williams, of Spokane, refused to have the Pacific National League de clared dead in spite of tho action of the National Association, which at Lucas solicitation declared the leaguo out of ex istence. For months past Magnate Wil liams and Wilmot have been engaged In a hot war with Lucas, and recent dis patches .scem to indlcato that Lucas is onco more defeated. A dispatch from Spokane says that President Lucas has left the field clear to those who wish to keep the Pacific National League alive. Ho will continue with his original plan of reviving a Northwest League, which was the name of the league when Seattlo and Portland wore members. Lucas was granted permission to establish a new league after it was declared that the Pacific National Lcaguo was dead. Tho threat on the part of Williams, Wilmot and others to establish an outlaw league, the following cities: Vancouver and Vic toria, B. C, Bcllingham and Everett. The Pacific National League will have teams in tho cities of Spokane, Butte, Salt Lake, Boise, Helena and Ogdcn. Those who held the franchise of the teams in those towns named refused to surrender their leases to the grounds and It was this undoubtedly that caused Lu cas to surrender. Before the new leaguo can get down to business it will be neces sary to secure grounds and erect ball parks. This will cost a great deal of money. It was rumored that D. E. Dugdale, promient In the war of 1903, will have a team in the Northwestern League. Dug dale will either select Bellingham or Victoria. HOPE TO WIPE OUT DEFEAT Multnomah Basket-Bail Team Will Play Return Game With Dallas. Tho first M. A. A. C basket-ball team will meet the crack Dallas ag gregation in a return game Friday night. The game will be played on tho local club floor and from the past work of both teams it should be an exceptionally fast one. In the last game played at Dallas the club boys were defeated by the close score of 14' to 10. They have been working up to the limit in the recent practice work in order to be able to wipe out that de feat. Dallas brings with it the reputation of being about the best team, in this section. This aggregation recently de feated the Corvallis boys, who have leeii recognized as the snappiest lot of players in the Valley. The club will follow out the re cently established rule of charging no admission to tho game, and it is ex pected that an unusually large crowd of spectators will be in attendance. Ananias Cuts Record Down. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15. In the han dicap at Oakland today Ananals cut a second from the track's highest mark for one mile and 100 yards, placing the record at 1:44. The 11000 handicap was looked upon by race-goers as a. gift to the Ryan stable. Honiton, with 122 pounds up, and San Nicolas, her stable companion, were pronounced favorites at 4 to 5. The others receded in consequence of the strong play on the Ryan pair, Schorr's crack, Ananias, being second choice.

Among other symptoms I was se verely afflicted with Rheumatism, and got almost past going. The disease got a firm hold upon my system; my blood was thor oughly poisoned with the virus. I lost in weight, was run down, bad sore throat, eruptions, splotches and other evidences of the disease. I was truly in a bad shape when I began the use of S. S. S., but the persistent use of it brought me out of my trouble safe and sound, and I have the courage to publicly testify to the virtues of your great blood remedy, S. S.
