LATTER TALKS IN DEFENSE Multnomah Wrestler Denies Match Was Fixed and Frank Declares Club Had No Connection With Affair. Whether or not the wrestling bout between Eddie O'Connell, wreBtllng In structor of the Multnomah Club, and Joe Helnrlch, of Spokane, was a hatched fiasco wherein the fans were defrauded la a question now In the hands of the grand Jury. Practically all the testimony bearing on the sub ject which has been agitating wrest ling fans for some time past was put before the grand jury yesterday and it Is assured that the decision of that body in the matter will be presented In Its final reDort. the end . of this month. If not In one of the special batch of indictment returns made each week. There was no backing down on the part of anyone or any denial of pre vious statements when those interested In the arfalr were called before the grand jury. Kid Parker, Jack King and Euclid Hlchards gave testimony r-ndiiig to show that Heinrich was sjaid to quit. Eddie O'Connell protested r.hat he knew nothing of any frame-up end that if money was paid Helnrlch -o quit he knew nothing of the tran saction. Edgar Frank, as representa tive of the Multnomah Club, was on hand to say that the club had nothing to do with the holding of the match. All parties connected with the affair were before the grand Jury except Itobert Cronin and Kobert Ringer, re porters on evening papers, who were represented as the promoters of the afralr and who were said to have re ceived 40 per cent of the gate receipts. No charge has been made, however, that they had anything to do with al leged crooRed work, but the grand jury thought It just as well to hear th.-m before the Incident Is closed and It is likely the two promoters will be called today. King Made Similar Charges. As discrediting Jack King, who has been crying "fake" loudly, Frank re cited that King made similar charges against hlin. which were unfounded, after Frank's bout with Johnny Haley, of Chicago. Further than this and to represent that the Multnomah Club was entirely free from active Interest In the O'Connell-Heinrich affair, Frank did not testify. O'Connell was before the grand Jury for 35 minutes. King spent an hour and 15 minutes behind the doors, Parker was in evidence for something like an hour and Richards was ex amined for half an hour. King and Kid Parker reiterated their former stories of alleged fraud while Rich ards went somewhat more Into detail as to the understanding he had con cerning $100 posted with him to be paid to Helnrlch. Richards testimony was regarded as the most important In support of the frame-up charges and If any In dictment follows it likely will be rased on what he said. According to his testimony. Kid Parker, who lays free claim to the dishonor of having acted as a go-between, approached him the daV before the wrestling bout anrt handed him 100. saying it was to be paid to Heinrich In the event that wrestler lost. But should the Spokane man win. the $100 was to be returned to Parker. "Wanted Payment In Secret. When the bout was concluded and Helnrlch came out loser, Richards said he went to the defeated wrestler's dressing-room to deliver the 100, be lieving it to be money that had been placed on wagert He stepped up to Helnrlch to hand him the money but Heinrich held up his hand and admon ished him quietly not to pay the money so publicly. Later Richards gave him the money and the incident ended Parker reiterated his story of how the $100 came to be placed in Rich ards' hand!-. He said that some time previous to the go O'Connell met him on the btreet and told him he had re ceived a letter from Heinrich offering to throw the bout If paid 100 In addi tion to his percentage of the gate re ceipts. O'Connell said he had decided to accept the terms and. so the wit ness said, gave him $100 to be placed In Richards' hands for holding until Heinrich earned it." King's testi mony was in effect a "I-told-you-so" exposition. He said he knew all along the thing was a fake and that he told various and sundry people as much long before the bout occurred. The examination of witnesses oc curred at the District Attorney's office where the grand Jury Is now conduct ing its inquiries. the Courthouse quarters having been turned over to Circuit Judge Gatens for use as a courtroom. .Tunt u- hat .tiaitnuDU. curred among the grand Jurors or what credence they gave the cries of "fake will not be divulged until a formal report is made on the affair. MUITXOMAH BARS JACK KIXG Denied Privileges of Club or Ad mission to Grounds. At the meeting of the directors of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club last night the board voted to deny Jack King the privileges of the club in the future and to prohibit his presence at any and all meets or athletic programmes given by the organization. The reason for this action is based on King's assertions rela tive to certain amateur athletes partici pating in events for the club. Heretofore King has enjoyed the privileges of the club practically on the samo grounds, as a member of the organization. It was also decided to sanction the holding of an indoor track meet to be held at the Armory some time in April, and Frank K. Watkins, chairman of the outdoor athletic committee, was given authority to arrange and conduct this meet. The committee named to select a new superintendent to succeed the late B. R. Woodard asked another week in which to make a selection. The basket ball team leaven Friday for a game with the Oregon Agricultural College at Cor vallls. The resolution adopted by the club ia as- follows: ; Where" cevtaln statements have been made -in; trie public press ancf -elsen-her by "ne. Jack Kins', a former employe of the Multnomah Amateur Atblfttc Club. reflect- Board, hereafter Jack Klne will be denied admission to the premises of the club on any, and all occasions. Wrestling Contest Tonight, Portland fans will tonight witness a welterweight wrestling match between Eddie O'Connell. the Multnomah Club In ptructor, and Con Albright, the Rochester grappler in Exposition Rink, Nine teenth and Washington streets. Both wrestlers have trained hard for the event, and both are in excellent condition for the struggle. They will weigh in at ringside at 145 pounds, or forfeit $100. In Rochester last July Albright wrestled O'Connell two hours and ten minutes to a draw, giving Eddie the hardest battle the local in structor ever had In his long career. When Albright heard that his old rival was. in Portland he dropped off here on his way to California and talked match. As o Connell had publicly declared on several occasions that he was ready to meet any man of his weight in the world. Con hung around and practically forced the local champion into tonight's match. Joe Acton will be referee. IVTERXATIONAIi SOCCER GAME Picked Scotch Team Will Meet All Americans Saturday. A long and Imposing array of "Hoot Mors" will be in evidence at Multnomah Field Saturday afternoon, when the picked Scotch football team will struggle for the land of the thistle in the annual Internationals. Its opponents will be the Americans, m whose ranks Forrest Smithson, world-famous -hurdler, will probably be numbered. The game will r WILL MEET EDDIE O'CONNELL ON MAT TONIGHT.

The Scotch team will not be defi nitely selected until tonight, ibut there are enough of the bagpipe lovers playing the game In Portland to make two good teams, so competition for places is lively, particularly on the forward line. The three Scotch members of the Multnomah team will all be chosen and several from the Columbia will catch positions. If the Scotch beat All-America Satur day, the International trophy will He be tween Scotch and English, the deciding gamo being scheduled for Multnomah Field on. March 13. GIVE DECISION ON RAGE Y. M. C. A. MAY BACK POIITIjAXD MARATHON. Even if Association Declines to Take Vp Event, It Will Be Held Nevertheless. The T. M.' C. A. directors have an nounced that they will give their decision today as to whether the association cares to undertake the official duties of" holding the Portland Marathon. In any event, however. It is now settled that the event will "be held. Physical Director Grilley, of the T. M. C. A., has telegraphed Karl Armstrong, promoter of the Seattle Mara thon, to come and lay his proposition be fore the directors. Armstrong is very anxious to make a similar success to the one he achieved at the Puget Sound city, and it is believed that he will meet the Marathon committee on the question of terms. Mr. Grilley has made it understood that the spirit of commercialism shall not be as strongly manifested in the contest here as has been the case elsewhere. The race will be run under proper medical supervision and there will be two physi cians in attendance in case of any urgent need for their services. While all ordinary attention will be allowed to the runners on their course, there will be no alcoholio stimulant9 administered, unless under medical orders, and there will be none allowed to any runner who contemplates finishing the course. At previous Mara thon races a considerable number of the participants have been forced to the finish by strong alcoholic "goads" and other heart stimulants, and it is Intended that this shall not occur In Portland. . It has been definitely decided, that for the sake of the runners the race will not be entirely on the race course. Possibly the first few milea, a mile In the middle of the course and the last five miles will be run on the track, the rest being run on the best country roads. Contrary to the principle shown when arranging the classic contest in both Norway and Greece, where an endeavor is made to make the course resemble the first great run from Marathon to Athens, everything will be done to ensure the easiest pos sible running and the fastest time. A number of the Seattle runners complained strongly that there were only medals for the first three and contended that every man who finished a course of such a nature as the Seattle one, which has since been likened to a ploughed field, deserved at least some kind of a souvenir medal. In particular the California college run ners felt they had a grievance In this respect. Such details as this will be settled by the committee in the course of a few days. NELSOX'-MORAX BOUT LJKEIY Weight Conditions Seem Only Bar to Early Meeting. NEW TORK. March 3. (Special.) Manager White, of the National Ath letic Club, has received a telegram from Battling NelBon that he will come on here if a ten-round bout with Owen Moran, of Kngland. can be arranged. White immediately consulted Moran'a manager, who said that he would agree to the match under certain weight con ditions.' It Is probable that Moran will ask Nelson to scale at 130 pounds at 3 or 5 o'clock, but the lightweight champion will doubtless insist upon 133 nounda ringside. t fir- ; FX , i L JONES'SUGGESSOR TO BE ANNOUNCED Comiskey Expected to" Name White Sox Leader Today or Tomorrow. PORTLAND MAN OUT OF IT Writes Chicago Magnate Telling II Wjll Xot Consider Salary Propo sition This Year Thinks Team May Be- in First Division. BT W. J. PETRAIJT. Today or tomorrow Charles A. Com lsky, president of the Chicago Ameri can League baseball club will probably announce the successor to Fielder A. Jones as manager of the "White Sox." as the team is familiarly styled. In response to a deluge of letters from the "Old Roman." Fielder Jones has written him definitely declining- to be - i -v. J s .J ROCHESTER, Jf. T. considered as manager Tn a salary basis, and has furthermore advised Comiskey to appoint his new manager immediately, tor, according to Jones, it ill be necessary for the" new man to take charge at once. In discussing the baseball situation yesterday. Fielder Jones expressed himself as believing that Detroit and Cleveland, with the possible addition of the White Sox, would again be con tenders for the American League pen nant. In Jones' opinion there is also an excellent possibility of the Wash ington club becoming a first division team, while for New York, Boston and Philadelphia, he predicts nothing but gloom. "If I were hmdle the White Sox next season," said Jones, in discussing the coming race," I would try to get some first-class baseball players, for the club needs them. Even one good man would help considerably. In stead of taking up all the castoffs of the other clubs by refusing to waive. I would devote my energies toward getting at least one player of the type of Stone or some other man of ability. There are about six players now among the Sox whom I would trade off In a lump for a good pitcher. Another sug gestion I would offer Is to work Frank Smith every third day. He la a horse to work and can stand the pace easy. He is like Walsh In this respect and between the two of them, with another good one to help out, the Sox ought to stay In the race." Referring, to his own case again, Jones said he would be a patron at the Vaughn-street park as frequently as his business would permit this Sum mer. He has decided to invest in some almond and walnut groves this Spring and thinks that big returns will accruo from this branch of "farming." Fielder evidently is not disturbed by the "call of the diamond" In the slightest degree, for he calmly dis-. cusses orchards, timber lands and dry farming as though he had never hearrt of a baseball game or was aware that the days of basehlts, errors and stolen bases are only a short six weeks away. Instead of figuring out new plays lo work out against the Detroits, Cleve lands and St. Loulsans. Fielder figures timber by the thousand feet, farming land by the acre and endeavors to esti mate the yield of hay, grain and other crops by the acre, per season. He says he is getting so familiar with his new surroundings that he can tell a prune rancher from a logger on sight. Walter McCredie and" his players are now at San Luis OblSDO and from this time on the bugs will be eagerly scanning the sporting pages for "dope" on new as well as old players on the Portland team. The fans attention will not be confined to the Portland club alone. Tomorrow the San Francisco and Los Angeles clubs. In the respective cities, will meet the first and second teams of the Chicago American League club In the first games of the Spring train ing trip. The series with the Seals and the Angels Is to extend over two weeks, and the Bay City fans can ex pect some exciting contests. While the Pacfflc Coast League teams are already at work on their training grounds, several points in the Northwest will be scenes of baseball activity in a few weeks. Pearl Casey is anxiously awaiting the date when he and his Portland ball-tossers Journey to Medford. while Manager Rowland and the Aberdeen Black Cats are equally as anxious to visit Walla Walla, where that club is to get Into action. The Vancouver team Is slated to limber up at Prosser, while Spo kane goes to Lewiston, Idaho. Seattle may train at home, or will go to North Yakima, and Russ Hall seems inclined to keep his Tiger squad at Tacoma. All of the Northwestern teams will get into training quarters between March 20 and 25. KEEXE JOCKEY GOES ABROAD Joe Xotter Sails for Germany to Fuirill Contracts. NEW YORK, March S. Joe Notter, who headed the list of winning Jockeys on the Metropolitan tracks last year and is one of the best riders ever developed in this country, sailed yesterday on the Kaiser Wilhelm II to fulfill a contract made to ride In Germany this year. Notter was under contract to James B X I Keene last season, and won many rich I stakes for the vice-chairman of the Jockey Club. He handled unbeaten Colin In hia three winning races: he rode Celt to victory In the Brooklyn handicap; he brought Ballot home'in tho suburban and four other races, and he won the classic Futurity with Maskette. During the sea son he handled 149 winners. . OXYGEX I'SED IX PRIZEFIGHT Young Corbett Stimulated With Breath.' of It Between Rounds. NEW YORK.' March 3. The adminis tration of oxygen, considered by most persons as a fanciful scheme for strengthening athlc4.es under strain, proved a boon to Young Corbett In his fight with Johnny Marto, In which he had a shade tin better last night. His natural courage, combined with the oxy gen treatment. enabled him to put up the fight which surprised so many of his followers. C iplous doses were given to him after each round, and the effect was Immediately noticeable. While some experts declare the fight was a draw, the victory was generally conceded to Corbett. The oxygen treatment. It Is predicted, will b- used often in the fu ture. COMPANY B WTXS CONTEST Puts Forth Claim to Indoor Baseball Championship. The Company B Indoor baseball team last night defeated the Bralnard Cubs and are therefore claiming the champion ship of the state. The game was played at the Armory and when the last man was out the score stood 10 to 3 In favor of the soldier lads. Company B's victory was due to the fine work of Pitcher Backus, who fanned 17 of his opponents, and the catching of Young Davis, his battery partner. The teams lined-up as follows: Compsny B. Position. BnlnaH'j Cubn. Backus P McKenzle Pavla c Barrell Williams 1 B Thin Duncan 2 B Gumm Oearin 3 B Wilson I.ankford I, s Rlngler West It S Tauscher Stevens L.

LOVE'S DREAM SOi OVEH SYLVIA DCROCIIER, BRIDE OF TWO WEEKS, SEEKS DIVORCE. Says Husband Gave Her Beating Only Week After Marriage. Other Tales of Marital Woe. Beaten, neglected, abused and found fault with during the first week after her marriage, Sylvia Lonetyo Durocher has brought In the Circuit Court a divorce suit against Jean B. Durocher. The wedding ceremony took place February IS, only two weeks.ago. The bride says she was given a sound beating a week ago yester day. Believing that years of such con duct would be unbearable, she has paved the way for a separation. Compelled to support her husband in Idleness and to submit to being knocked down by a blow from his fist, Eva Han Ion has brought a divorce suit in the Cir cuit Court. She married George W. Han Ion In Vancouver. Wash., October 14, 1901. She has been told by him, she says, that she Is "as low as they make them," and complains that he sometimes remains away from home for two or three days at a time. Informing her when he Is ques tioned as to his - whereabouts, that It is none of her "E n business." Although Florence Campbell was given a decree of divorce last Friday, It will probably be set aside by Judge Garten bein. of the Circuit Court. It appears that Attorney William LaForce, represent ing Mrs. Campbell, took a default order in the case on Friday, the last day of the publication of summons. Senery Camp bell, the husband, had the right to answer the suit at any time before midnight Fri day, the day the decree was granted. When the attention of the court was called to this he said he would set aside the divorce. MURDERER WAS VICIOUS Xord.trom, Tillamook Slayer, Has Record In Astoria. ASTORIA. Or., March 3 (Sp.'cial.) It Is believed that Adolph Nordstrom, the Tillamook murderer, was In Astoria for a short time.

The man was of a vicious nature and al ways carried a number of heavy iron washers In his pocket, which he used as weapons whenever he got Into a row. For several months he was deck-hand on the motor sloop Condor, and recently is known to hare .been In Tillamook. The murdered man was a brother of G. A. Peterson, roadmaster of the A. & C R., and was well-known in this city as a man of excellent character. STRUGGLE IS TOO MUCH Saloon Swamper, Once Good Engin eer, Takes Own Life. ABERDEEN. Wash..

MANY GREET "JEFF" Big Fighter Given Ovation at New York Station. GIVES HOPE FOR BIG MILL Unbeaten Chpmplon Says If He Can Get Into Shape He will Re- , enter Ring to Defend Ills Title. NEW YORK. March 3.-James J. Jeff ries, retired heavyweight champion of the world, was accorded a remarkable demonstration on his arrival here today A crowd of nearly 2000 people gathered at the Grand Central Station and wildly cheered the pugilist as . he elbowed his way to a carriage. Jeffries was accom panied by his wife and sparring partner. Sam Berger. Long before the Twentieth Century Limited, on which Jeffries was travel ing, drew Into the station, a throng of people gathered in Forty-second street and special police were sent for to rope off the station platform. As the big form of the pugilist was seen alighting from the train, the crowd massed behind the ropes gave forth a loud cheer. The track platform was filled with well-known sporting men and friends of the re tired champion. Jeffries pushed his way to the station platform but finding his passage blocked by the crowd which kept up a continuous cheering, he was com pelled to accept the assistance of the sta tion masters, who hurried him to the bajrga Re-room. Jeffries appeared to be In very' good physical condition. Hia eyes were clear and bright and he said that ho believed he could reduce to normal fighting weight in time. The pugilist said: "I have been training lightly for sev eral weeks, and have reduced my weight to about 245 pounds. Each day I find that I can box faster than the day before and I am delighted to find that my wind is In cood shape. I feel first rate but I can't say definitely whether I will again enter the ring or not. I have been out of the ring four years and that may make it Impossible for me to attain strict cham pionship form again." Another crowd gathered around tho building where Jeffries went on his ar rival here and the police were called to clear the thoroughfare. BOWLERS XOT VP TO RECORD Find Pittsburg Alleys Too Fust. Westerners May Do Better. PITTSBURG, March 3. The fourth day's session of the National bowling tournament opened with two men teams of Wer.tern Pennsylvania rolling. Dur ing the late afternoon the individual con tests will be played. Up to the present time the scores made are considerably below any of the estab lished records. In explanation.
