Ewing's Action in Switching
Shinn to Sacramento Puts
. McCredie on Warpath.
APPEALS TO COMMISSION
Beaver Manager Plans Finish Fight
on 'Stealing" of Star Player,
Who Is Badly Xeeded by
Portland's Team.
BT W. a. MAO KAE.
SAX XiClB OBISPO. Cal., March 8.
(Special) Unless President Cal Ewlng,
of the Pacific Coast League, rescinds
his order In sending Outfielder Jimmy
Shinn to Sacramento, the Coast Leagn
will find itself In lots of trouble. Today
Manager McCredie learned that Shinn,
tn spite of the fact that he had been or
dered by McCredie to report to San Luis
Obispo, and that he had promised to do
so, had reported to Charley Graham.
When the Portland magnate made sure
of this fact, he began burning: up the
telegraph wires. The first thing he did
was to telegraph Shinn to report to him
at San Luis Obispo.
Then he wired to Judge W. "W. MeCre
d: telling him of the action taken by
President Ewing In sending Shinn to
fiiin-amento, and Instructing Judge Mc
Credie to at onc9 take up the matter
with the National Commission. This
means' the fight between the McCredies
and President Ewing will be one to ,the
finish, with the National Commission as
the referee.
Act Xot Warranted ?
President Ewing's attempt to deprive
Portland of the services of Outfielder
Shinn is one of the most highhanded bits
of baseball business ever attempted in
any league. Ewlng says that as presi
dent he has the right to transfer any
player to any league team that he deems
necessary, a thing unheard of In base
ball so far as any one knows. McCredJe
has had Shinn signed up for three years.
Two years ago he loaned him to Graham
and last year he played sensational ball
for Santa Cruz. All the time Shinn was
developing Into a Tilgh-class player and
now, when his services are badly needed.
President Ewing, In order to help bolster
tip Sacramento, comes along and gives
him to Graham.
When it came to taking Sacramento
back Into the Coast League there was
an agreement among the moguls to help
Sacramento In getting up a good team.
The McCredies came through and gave
them Catcher Jimmy Byrnes, and now
Ewing claims that Judge McCredie said
he could have Shinn. Shinn signed a
1909 Portland contract In October. 1908,
and Sacramento was not taken back Into
the Coast League until the annual meet
ing, which was held Christmas week.
How Ewing figures Judge McCredie
could have turned over Shinn Is a mys
tery that Ewlng will have to explain to
the National Commission.
First Serious Break.
This Is really the first serious break
between Portland and the Coast League,
and. coming as It does on the eve of
Portland breaking hack into the North
western League, there Is a dangerous
war cloud looming up.
McCredie this morning received a tele
gram from Second Baseman Breen, say
ing that he would arrive on the 10th.
With Shinn In doubt about coming and
the fact that McCredie has yet to hear
from Armbruster and Murray, the worry
days are beginning to break for the tall
Portland manager. Ort has been hold
ing out for more money than the cltb
can pay him, so at present McCredie is
tip in the air. In case Ewing still per
sists In making Shinn stay with Sacra
mento. McCredie will wire to Portland
for Bassey and in the meantime will try
to come to terms with Ort.
Owing to a switch in the "White Sox
dates. McCredie will play the Chicago
team here March 16 instead of the 15th,
as has been announced. This informa
tion reached McCredie this morning, his
telegram reaching Comlskey too late in
order to capture the two games. On
the day of the game here all business
will be suspended and plans are under
way to run excursions to San Luis Obis
Jo from all of the nearby towns.
Roger Cornell, the trainer, toolc charge
of the crew this morning and from now
on the hopefuls will be busy every mo
ment. Thero was a five-mile hike this
morning and three hours' hard work on
the ball field this afternoon. Doc Cor
nell will give his special attention to the
pitchers, and takes as much care of
their arms as a mother would her first
horn.
In law, and a marble slab was placed over

care of same.

J In New Y'ork and all the Eastern cities.
ana I think if the matter were taken up
properly, which I intend to do personally,
with Richard K. Fox. ot the Police Ga
zette, that a sufficient sum can be col
lected that will place a monument over
the grave that will be a credit to the past
deeds of the "Nonpareil."
- In my late visit to Australia. I noted
while there that a freat American wrest
ler who had lived there only one year,
named Clarence Wnlstler. died suddenly,
and the Australians had a monument erect
ed over his crave half the size of Wash
ington's monument If the Australians can
do this for a stranger in a strange country,
why cannot Americans do something for one
of their own people, and one of the best
and squarest pugilists that ever lived. Jack
Dempsey ?

The big gymnasium at Columbia Univer
sity is being made ready for the Indoor
meet of April 17, when there will be a
continuous programme of over 22 events.
The dirt track Is in excellent condition,

appears to be a little grading necessary,
which will be accomplished In the next

The meet bids fair to be the most suc

Man Who Defeated Dorando In -Marathon
to Appear Here.
If Martini Sisto can maintain the form
he showed two years ago In Italy, when
he defeated Pietrl Dorando in no uncer
tain manner, he will make a record
showing at the Oregon Marathon, March
26.
Sisto has documentary evidence to
prove that he was victor over the Lon
don Marathon contestant In a race In
which there were over 30 entries. Sisto
laconically describes Dorando as being
one of the "other 29." He Is to run under
the management of M. C. Montreza.
Italian commissioner for the A-T-P
Exposition, .who has announced that
should Sisto win the race, he will trans
fer him to the professional ranks and
place him against the top-notchers. sisto
would appear to have a gruelling time
ahead to get Into training, as his work
in Portland has been of the nature of a
day laborer.' One of the unique features
claimed for Sisto is that after traveling
five miles at a fair gait, he can hit up
the pace and hold a steady killing pace
for at least 50 miles, should such a ter
rific distance be run.
Promoter Solid seemed to be much lm- ,
pressed with Sisto and states that he
has proved his statements so thoroughly
that he believes he has a chance of fin
ishing in the front ranks of the Oriental
building racers.

PLAN'S TO RiATSE MOXITHEST

Says "Xonparell" Should Be Hon
ored fcy Better Shaft Than
Xow Marks Ills Crate.
John S. Barnes, who returned to
Portland yesterday after having as
sisted in paving the way for the
organization of the Intermountain
League, .writes the following letter to
the Sporting Editor of the Oregonlan
explaning his mistake relative to Jack
rempsey s grave, and also his plans for
the placing of a larger shaft at the
last resting place of the "Nonpareil:"
In reference to Jack Grant's statement In
this iriornlnK's Oregonlan. in regard to the
late Jack Dompsey. I wish to state that
in a recent coi- of the New York Police
Uazette, the following statement was made:
if. 13 strange, but nevertheless true, that
another famous pusrilist lies in an unmarked
ShYV" tha.,P7S1,ic Coast Jack UelnfpsV"

fhift -r n,nrble or pranlte upon which is
told who and w hat he v as. He Is burled
In an out-of-thevvay apot near Portland
toreotten by all but a few." 1
While at a hotel In Spokane last Sundav
some newspaper men called upon me arid
railed my attention to the above. Knowing
tint I had sparred with Den psev at a
rumpllmentary benefit given him at Spokane
about 17 years ago, they wished to know
what I had to say about the above item
Having been absent from the United
States for 15 years. I explained that 1
could not say whether the above was true
or not.
Since returning to Portland today. I made
Jnouirles and I find that the statement of
the Police Gazette Is not correct, from
the fact that I have been assured by Fred
T. Merrill and Jack Grant, who. I have
every reason to believe, that abcut 7 years
s-o a collection was made by the two gen
tlemen above stated, with the assistance
of Harry Corbett. of San Francisco, in con
junction with Mr. Brady, Dempsey's brotber-
jOE Corbett pitched for San Fran
Cisco Sunday, and from the accounts
of his work It would seem, that the
Corbett pitcher and the Corbett scrap
per are of different mold. One can
come back, while the other cannot be
resuscitated from his athletic retire
ment. The Shinn contest between J. Cal
Ewing and Sacramento on one side and
the McCredies and Portland on the oth
er seems likely to assume the aspect
of a game of shinny, and the McCre
dies are not likely to have their shins
marred or lose their Shinn. Figure It
out any way you want to.
When Portland gave Jimmy Bvrne to
Sacramento It was believed by the Mc
Credies that they had contributed all
they were required by tTie league
agreement to assist the two new clubs,
and in view of the fact that the North
western team had to be provided for.
Ewlng must have realized that one
player from Portland was enough.
Seattle fans are delighted at the
showing of "Speck" Harkness. who was
quite a favorite in that town while
with the Butte Club. Quite conde
scending on the part of Seattle, but
perhaps the fans are Jubilant because
Harkness is not In the same league.
Buddy Ryan has not yet shown" up at
the training quarters. Somebody whis
pered that Buddy was to be married at
Oakland in December. Can It be that
the speedy little outfielder has post
poned the merry occasion until now?
Howard Mundorf, the diminutive lit
tle chap secured by San Francisco from
the Vancouver Club of the Northwest
ern League. Is to be delegated to play
third base for the Seals. He Is an ln
flelder and "Kid" Mohler thinks he can
make a third sacker out of him
.
Dick Breen has been heard from and
according to his message to McCredie
should report to the Portland team to
morrow. On his arrival the club will
be well fixed for lnflelders. but are still
shy a catcher, neither Armbruster or
Murray having yet put In his appear
ance. On top of the Shinn episode, this
absence of players is not highly con
ducive to Manager McCredie's peace of
mind. In fact, the particular spot In
the San Luis Obispo ball park adorned
by Walter will shortly resemble a sub
way unless some of the dilatory ball
tossers show up soon.
Asher Houston, the young Portland
player signed by Tacoma. will have to
compete with Cartwright, Stis and
Mackln for a place on the regular team,
according to the Seattle Times. Ash
will do his best to make good, but there
Is also a chance that John S. Barnes
will get him for his Butte team.

Roosevelt's View of Interven
tion Misstated.
MEDDLE IN REVOLUTIONS
Ex-Presldent Quoted by English Ex
plorer as Advocating Steps to
Pacify Haytl, Central Amer
ica and Venezuela.
OYSTER BAT, March 8.-The attention
of ex-President Roosevelt was called to
day to the publication of a portion of a
letter which he was said to have writ
ten to Sir Harry Johnston, the English
author and explorer, last December, In
which he was quoted as writing that the
United States ought to have intervened
In Haytl during the last revolution there
and also in Venezuela and Central Amer
ica. Mr. Roosevelt, In reply to questions
about the letter, said:
"As a general thing, when a private
letter has been divulged, as this one has
been. It is pretty sure to be more or
less garbled.'
The ex-President was greatly amused
at the reported prediction of Professor
Starr, of the University of Chicago, who
declared that. If the ex-President carries
out his proposed itinerary in Africa, he
will not come out alive. He laughed when
he read the statement and again as he
read that of Professor Okeley, of the
Columbian Museum, declaring Mr. Roose
velt would be as safe in Africa as he
would be In the United States. He de
clared he would leave the controversy to
toe fought out between the professors.
ROOSEVELT PLAS REVEALED
Some Things Recent President
Wanted to Do Told In Letter.
NEW TORK, March 8. What pur
ports to be the views of Theodore
Roosevelt of the attitude of the United
States concerning Haytl, as expressed
during his Incumbency on December
8 last Is contained today In a special
cable dispatch to the Herald from
Kingston. Jamaica, quoting a letter
which Mr. Roosevelt wrote to Sir Harry
H. Johnson, the British traveler and
scientist and student of the negro ques
tion. In the letter Colonel Roosevelt,
the then President, Is quoted in part as
follows, with reference to the recent
trouble In the Black Republic:
"1 do not think that we shall Inter
vene in Haytl. Of course we ought to,
but this people of ours simply do not
understand how things are outside our
own boundaries.
"Of course I do not desire to act un
less I can get the bulk of our people to
understand the situation and to back
up the action and to do that I have to
get the facts vividly before them and
clearly before them.
"In Panama. Cuba, Santo Domingo
and Puerto Rico It needed months or
years of preparation before we could
get our people to see things straight
and the worst of It Is that the edu
cated northeasterners are not merely
blinded but often malevolently blind to
what goes on.
"We ought to have Interfered In Ven
ezuela again and again during the last
seven years. We ought to have Inter
fered in Central America and Haytl. In
all three places we. ought now to do
something of the same kind that we are
doing tn Cuba. Santo Domingo or Pan
ama, according to the exigencies of the
case.
"But the Americans simply were not
alive to the situation."
Advance for Bodyguard.
DENVER, March 8 The News says
today:
"Jimmy" Sloan, former President
Roosevelt's closest friend and
bodyguard for the last five years, has
been rewarded and within the next few
weeks will resign from the United
States Secret Service to become United
States Marshal for the Southern dis
trict of Illinois. Sloan's appointment
has been agreed upon by Speaker Can
non, In whose district the new Marshal
will take office. Sloan's home is in
Danville. Sloan will continue In the
secret service as the personal body
guard of President Taft until the duties
of protecting a President have been
fully learned by Lucien Wheeler.
CHICKEN THIEVES CAUGHT
White Boy and Xegiy Companion
"Lift" Two Sacks of Fowls.
Fred Lutkemeier. about 14 years old. and
Davy Seott. a colored lad about a year
younger, are In the Detention Home of
the Juvenile Court, charged with stealing
chickens. They will have their hearing
before Judge Gantenbeln this afternoon
Toung Lutkemeier was arrested red-handed
by Detective Baty. while the colored
boy was arrested by Chief Probation Of
ficer Teuecher last night When he was
turned over to the Juvenile Court by the
police yesterday morning. Lutkemeier re
fused to divulge the name of hl partner
in crime. Later in the day, however, he
"e was Known as "Blneo. and with
this clew Mr. Teuscher succeeded In locat
ing him.
Young Scott says that Lutkemeier
planned the raid on the chicken coops, and
executed It while he stood guard. The
lads were seen at Sixteenth and Washing
ton streets, struggling under the weight
of two gunny-sacks. The colored boy took
to his heels at the approach of the offi
cer, dropping his sack of chickens, which
squawked their disapproval, and leaving
the unlucky Fred to make his explanation
unsupported.
Carrying one sack of noisy fowls him
self, and compelling his youthful charge
to shoulder the other, the detective
marched Lutkemeier to the police station
and booked him on a charge of larceny.
The officer reports that the lad is incor
rigible, having been In trouble several
times before. The boy told Mr. Teuscher
that the colored lad planned the thieving,
and paid him 23 cents to watch the sacks.
They had planned to sell the chickens to
the Chinese.
TERRITORY IS UNDECIDED
NEW LEAGUE MAY BE IXTER
MOC7TTAIX OR STATE.
IUCA9 and Barnes Back From Trip
and Say Montana Han Prom
ised Good Support,
William H. Lucas, president f the
Northwestern League, accompanied by
John S. Barnes, arrived home yester
day morning after having spent three
weeks Investigating the proposed or
ganization of the new Intermountain
League. While their efforts were suc
cessful to a great degree. It Is not yet
determined whether the new league
will be an Intermountain or a Montana
state league. Both Lucas nd Barnes
favor the Intermountain League, be
cause of the prestige such an organi
zation will command, but some of the
Montana fans are keen for a state
league.
In this instance, however. Butte Is
favorable to either circuit, and John S.
Barnes, who has been decidod upon as
the man to take the helm at the Mon
tana metropolis, was received there
with open arms. The Butte fans wel
comed him heartily and assured him
their support In giving Butte a good
team. President Lucas and .Manager
Barnes will return to Montana next
week, for a regular meeting has been
called to take place at Helena on
March 16. when the league, whether
Intermountain or Montana State, will
be regularly organized, and the clubs
Involved will post their forfeits. E. T.
Farnsworth, formerly of Dillon. Mont.,
has been decided upon to pilot the des
tinies of Salt Lake City in case the
Utah city is admitted, and he-says he
will be on hand at Helena to urge his
claims for an Intermountain League.
"The aspect looks splendid," said
William H. Lucas yesterday. "Butte
wants baseball, and In the new league
the clubs will be able to have a salary
limit of $!500; which is much better
than the provisions of the rating as
Class D. I believe the league will be
formally launched next weel:. and that
it will prove a most successful enter
prise. Jack Grim Is now at Missoula,
where he Is Interesting the people of
that town In baseball. Missoula Is a
good town, and should help the circuit
Immensely."
John 8. Barnes said: I favor the
Intermountain circuit, for the reason
that It will permit of a higher rating
during the coming year.
