The three magnates were closeted for two hours last night and finally had to adjourn until this morning to allow Judge McCredle to catch his train for Vancouver. The discussion will be re newed today and an amicable settle ment is hoped to be reached. Henry Berry wants continuous ball In Los Angeles and asserts himself to be agreeable to any proposition McCredle may make provided he is granted this one demand. Cal Ewlng is trying to act as a peacemaker and bring the two magnates to an understanding. He has with him a resolution taken at the last meeting of the directors of the league in January, stating that In the event of an enlargement being made to Include six cities In the league, that one fran chise would be granted to R.. F. Goings and his associates for a town not more than 30 miles from Los Angeles. This would give Los Angeles continuous ball and of course this Is what Mr. Berry wants. Cal Ewlng takes the stand that if any change Is made the directors should abide by their resolution passed on in the last meeting and so. practically he takes Berry's view of the matter. Since this resolution waa taken Judge McCredle has looked over the situation thoroughly in the Northwest and has come to the conclusion that the best and natural way out of the present entan glement is to form an eight-club league, with four Northern cities and four South em. This seems the ideal way and the one by which the entire Coast will be treated to class A ball. It is also the logical and broad way of looking at the matter and. while Judge McCredle dis likes to revoke the promise made to Mr. Goings that he should have a franchise in the event of any change being made, at the same time he is thoroughly as sured that his views are right. . He Is willing to admit the mistake made at the last meeting, but declares that two wrongs never made a right. President Ewing wired last night for Flynn, who Is working In San Fran cisco, to come to Portland to finish the season umpiring. "Bull" Ferine will be sent South on his arrival and Flynn and Cheyne, who was seen here this week, will work together. SHOT II,. EIGHT-YEAR-OLD CALIFORNIA BOY KILLED BY HIS LITTLE PLAY3IATE.
