PROVES

American Iraznp Says State
Mn I Hi Not Want Peace.
PAN' FRANCISCO. Iec. 21. (Spe
cial.! The Pacific Oosst and Califor
nia State Leagues will ko their sev
eral ways. The ultimatum was de
livered this afternoon after a ee.ssion
held by rraut I.eaRiie deleKatef. They
Tefuse.l absolute reinstatement to the
three Maikllsted players, and Cy More
Inur and Al Jnrman. of the independ
ent organization, would not accept the
terms that have already been made
public. The independent delegates
took their leave wtth the understanding-
that the conference was closed and
the Coast Leasue people will make
their plans along those lines.
Peace Milton a Failure.
President Pnlltam left onKlt for
the Kast and President Ban Johnson,
of the American LeaKue. will start
for the Kast tomorrow mnmlnit. their
peare niisslon having been entirely a
failure.
Whether the Coast I.eafrue will go
through with its threat to have a
six-club league. giving continuous
baseball to Is Angeies and puttlnK a
club Into Sacramento in opposition to
trie State League, remains to be seen.
Their annual session, after the ap
pointment of a schedule committee,
was adiourned until in o'clock tomor
row. President Kwir.it intimated that
in case Henry Berry wants continuous
ball for Ixs Angeles that he will vote
in favor of It and tiiat the sixth club
will he installed In Sacramento. The
suhject. however, will be thoroughly
discussed by the baseball men before
they reach a conclusion. In view of
the fact that the schedule committee
was working on a schedule that will
permit of two clubs playing in Port
land during the season. It might ap
pear that there will be four cluhs
in the Coast League. Such a plan,
however, is apt to be changed and the
schedule easily amended.
Want to Be Independent.
President Ban Johnson. of the
American League, referring to the
proposed peace conference, said:
"The Coast League went more than
half way In its endeavors to secure
organized baseball for the State
League. They offered many conces
sions, and T do not see how In fairness
to themselves they could haye gone
further The State League evidently
desired to remain an Independent or
ganWatlon. I told them at the ban
quet that they did not know what war
was like, and 1 do not care to enter
any further discussion of the mat
ter." Mcl'rodie on Committee.
Judge MeCredie. director of the
Portland cluh. arrived this morning,
and the entire board of directors of
the Coast League was In session dur
ing the afternoon for a short time.
President Kwing appointed the fol
lowing on the schedule committee:
Judge MeCredie. of Portland: K. M.
Walter, of Oakland: F. M. Ish. of Pan
Kranclsco. and Harry Iceland, of Los
.Angeles.
The appointment was made with the
understanding that the Coast League
will not meet for the final settle
ment of its business until Wednesday
morning at 10 o'clock, when officers
will he elected, reports received and
the circuit for 1009 finally decided
upon. Outside of the possibility of the
league deciding upon six clubs, there
is nothing of importance to come be
fore the directors. The same officers
will unquestionably be re-elected and
the same policies pursued.

IDENTITY IS NOT DECIDED
TO DISCUSS BRIDGE SITE
Kat" Side Pnh Clubs Will Gire
Council Tip.
There will he a meeting of the Special
Bridge Committee of the City Council at
2 o'clock this afternoon, at which time
l large delegations from all of the East
Side Push Clubs will be present to state
their contentions regarding the best lo
cation for the proposed bascule bridge
across the Willamette River, north of the
Steel bridge. Councilman Menefee is
halrman of the committee. The main
aiuestion to be determined is as to whether
. the people shall vote upon a choice of two
locations. A report to the Council will be
framed today.
The North East Side Improvement As-
soclation and the other Push Clubs rep
resent the Broadway location, and the
1inpr Alhlna and Multnomah Clubs fa
vor Hancock street. The former advo
cated the Hanwk location for a high
. bridge, but on the report of Engineer
; Ralph Mmljeski that such a bridge
, would cost J.l.cMio.ftnft. and that a bascule
bridge at Broadway would cost not over
l.'.oort.ono. decided to favor Broadway.
, fearing that the people would not vote
for so great an appropriation as would
. be needed for the Hancock street loca
t ion.
Those favorable to the Hancock loca
tion argue that a bridge there will ac
commodate the greater number of people,
and that the cost of the structure there
will be no more than at Broadway, and
In f;ict the cost would be less. . They will
ask that both locations be submitted to
a vote of the people, but the friends of
the Bronhway location say that such a
course can only either delay or defeat any
bridge.
At the hearing this afternoon evidence
of river pilots will be submitted to show
where the bridge can be built with the
least obstruction to navigation. Both
sides quote the pilots, but there will be
a direct "show-down" of testimony on
this question.
MeU'hlor and Curtis Offered for
Northwestern I.eajriie .Team and
Mar Be Aerrpted Majree and
Kose Drafted by Sea til.
The San Francisco and TLoa Angeles Pa
cific Ieague clubs have each pledged
thre playirs to the McCredies, for use
bj the Northwest League club. Accord
ing to the deal with Danny Long. Me
Credie is to have the option of taking
three new players drafted or purchased
by San Francisco, or Harry Melcholr, Joe
Curtis and one other player.
Waller McCredlo can secure Melchoir
to a Portland contract any time he sees
fit. but as the player would he used In
the Northwest league, MeCredie says
that It Is up to Casey whether the Seal
outfielder Is secured or not: Melchoir
would make a strong addition to any out
field and it may be possible that Portland
will yet secure 4i is services. Joe Curtis
will make a good man for the Northwest
team, and Casey, who is not saying any
thing, is believed to think favorably of
both players.
v
Welter Framhes. the catcher who fin
ished last season for .Portland. Is not a
member of either of the Portland teams,
and there is no likelihood of his wearing
a Portland uniform another season, un
less some unforeseen contingency arises
whereby the McCredies will be short of
backstop material Just at present Port
land has the services of four catchers
cinched. These are W. Fournier, Frank
Beaumont, Murray and Harrigan. with
two more padded-mit artists in sight. If
the deal with Boston for Catcher Murray,
of Trenton, falls through, MeCredie has
stipulated another backstop to be deliv
ered by the Boston club, end In the event
that neither is forthcoming, Altoona's
proposition for the sale of Frambes may
be considered. MeCredie has an option
on this player until the first of March.
Inflelders Magee and Rose have been
mentioned as being members of Mc
Credie's squad, and while these players
have been drafted by the Portland club,
they are to play with Seattle instead.
Judge W. Wr. MeCredie drafted both men
for E. E. Dugdale and both players will
be turned over to Dug when the proper
time comes. Rose Is one of the most
promising young first basemen In the
Central States. Dugdale expects to use
him in place of Schotleld. and Magee In
place of "Pug" Bennett, who threatens
to retire from the game. If Bennett
should retire the Seattle cluh would prob
ably be much Ijertter on, for he Is rated
too highly by the Seattle magnate, and
a young player like Magee will give much
better service.
"Bring us a drink, boy," commanded
the player.
"Wot t 11 d'you want?" queried
Case In the -toughest manner he could
assume.
The man named his drink In a man
ner that left no doubt of his meaning,
and while the proprietor nearly had
hysterics. Casey slipped quietly down
stairs and secured the order. On bring
ing the drinks to the flayers, the host
inquired the price.
"Two hits." shouted Casey so every
one could hear. The man pungled UP
the quarter and then magnanimously
added a tip In the shape of a dime. This
was the last straw, and, with the re
mark. "Better keep that and buy your
self an automobile." Casey tossed the
ID-cent piece on the table and walked
disdainfully away. It in said the only
way to tip Casey Is to give him o or $10
gold pieces.

by the boys from the Beaver State.
The score at the end of the first half
was 12 to S in favor of Anaconda, but

gave the Oregons their regular team and
they played rings around their opponents,
keeping them from scoring from the field.

PEARL CASEY Is having to stand
much joshing of late, and the occa
sion for the funmaklng at the popular
balltossers expense came about in the
following manner:
Last Saturday, in pursuance of his du
ties, he had occasion to attend a' pool
game being played by two apparently
well-to-do Easterners who were guests
at the Hotel Portland, but who went
to a billlardi parlor for a few games of
pool. One of the players missed an easy
shot and decided that he should treat.
Pounding his cue on the floor, he
turned toward Casey, who was in
charge, and shouted In an imperious
manner: "Boy. oh. boy, bring us a
couple of drinks."
"Wonder what he takes me for," mut
tered Casey to the proprietor as he
looked toward the players.
"He thinks you are a flunky," was
the reply. ' "Better go see what he
wants."
"Why don't yen go yourself?" queried
Casey.
"He hasn't taken me for a. boy, has
he?" laughingly replied the proprietor,
and Casey ambled toward the pool tables

Explains Why Requisition Was De
nied for Arclicr, of New Jersey.
OLYMPIA," Wash., Dec. 21. (Spe
cial.) Governor Mead today addressed
a long letter to Governor Fort, of New
Jersey, explaining his refusal to honor
Fort's requisition for C. A. Archer to
the New Jersey executive. Mead also
sent letters from business men of Se
attle and Tacoma. received by him.
testifying that Archer has lived in the
state since 1902 and has borne a good
reputation.
Mead declares friends of Archer tes
tified at the hearing that Arcner was
in no wise criminally liable to the
charges against him. inferring the
charges were to force hkn to settle
civil matters. Mead also asserts one
of the New Jersey agents was Intoxi
cated at the hearing; that the other
said lie knew nothing of the history
of the case.
Nowhere in his letter to Fort does
Mead refer in any way to Archer's
domestic relations.

SAN FRANCI3CO. Dec. 21. .Sam Lang

his first appearance in a local ring, made
good-with a vengeance find incidentally
gave short shrift to Jim Flynn, of
Pueblo. Colo. Langford knocked out his
man in the first round, after two minutes
of fighting.
From the outset it was plainly apparent
that Flynn did not have a. chance. Lang
ford lost no time in getting Into action.
No sooner had the men shaken fcands
than the colored boy went after the
Pueblo fireman hammer and tonga. He
swung a hard -right to the body and a
niomunt later scored witli his left to the
face. He gave Flynn no chance. Flynn
rushed to close quarters, but found no
shelter. Ijingford followed his advantage
by sending his right and left to the
body with great force. After two minutes
of fighting Langford feinted with bin
right. Like a flash he brouglut jis left

Flynn dropped as If hit with a log.
his face turned purple and he rolled
on his back until the pain from the
blrtw caused him to turn. The count
of TO was tolled off, but Flynn was
too far gone even to hear the count.
He remained helpless on the floor of
the ring with his seconds working
over him for fully two minutes. He
was then carried to his corner and It
was five minutes before his senses re
turned. "What hit me?" he murmured when
speech returned to him. The defeated
pugilist was led to i.s dressingroom
with difficulty.
Langford was a 3 to 1 favorite In
the betting. His quick victory over
his heavier opponent placed him in
great favor with the local followers
