MAGNATES FAIL TO
ARRANGE SCHEDULE
National League Chiefs Indis
posed, and Merely Wran
gle at Meet.
FOGEL JOKES; STEALS OFF
Murphy Doubts Truthfulness of
Rivals' Press Agent Dreyfuss
Calls Friends "Bad as Bunch
of Chorus Girls."
NEW YORK, Feb. 17. After four days
of endeavor, National League magnate's
were unable tonight to adopt a schedule
for the coming season, and adjourned
until tomorrow.
Up to nightfall. Horace Fogel, presi
dent of the Philadelphia club, was confin
ed in his room, ostensibly suffering from
gout, but at 9 o'clock he quietly left the
Waldorf Astoria, climbed Into a taxieab
and was off, presumably for Philadel
phia. All week the magnates have been wait
ing for Fogel before acting on the claim
of William J. Murray, ex-manager of
the Philadelphia club, who asserts, that
he -was deposed when his contract had
two years to run. Fogel"s departure
forestalls any action.
Meeting Is Delayed.
With Fogel in his room, Stanley Robi
pon of St. Iouis ill and in bed, and C. H.
Ebhetts of Brooklyn also on the sick
list, the adjourned meeting of the mag
nates, which was to have , been called at
t o'clock, did not get together until 4
o'clock. Bbbetts at that time was able
to attend, but it was somewhat of a gath
ering of invalids, for John Brush, of New
York, also was ailing and had to be as
listed to the meeting.
Only one vote on the question of adopt
ing the long schedule of lfi8 games or the
shorter schedule of 154 games was tak
en. With the proxies of Fogel and Rob
ison held by Charles W. Murphy, of Chi
cago, it was announced that the vote of
yesterday was unchanged; Cincinnati.
Pittsburg and Boston favoring the short
schedule, and the others holding out for
the long list.
Heated arguments arose over thl fact
that both schedules assign six conflict
ing dates to St. Louis and two to Chi
cago. Both Robinson and Murphy insist
that there must be a change.
Magnates Are Discouraged.
This complicates matters so that it
looks like a hopeless deadlock, "with a
possibility that the magnates . may- ad
journ tomorrow for two weeks with the
hope of effecting a settlement.
Barney Dreyfuss Is utterly discouraged,
lie had intended leaving for Pittsburg
tonight, and it is probable that he will
go in the morning.
Fogel's hasty departure for Philadel
phia tonight came after four days of
virtual imprisonment in his room. If he
had appeared at the league meeting the
magnates would have probably felt in
duty bound to consider Murray's $15,000
claim. But as it is their desire and
Fogel's to test the matter preferably in
a civil court, his attitude is explained.
Kogel Waxes Humorous.
Murray has been in continuous at
tendance at all meetings, hoping to have
his case heard. Fogel caused much
amusement today by sending down from
his room a story that he had purchased
an elephant for $16,000 to do the work
of 20 horses in covering the diamond
with canvas.
When President Murphy, of Chicago,
heard today that the American League
had voted a salary of $25,000 a year to
Ban Johnson, he said: "That's pretty hot
press agent work."
Dreyfuss said tonight that the National
league magnates were acting like "a
lot of Jealous chorus girls," that it "was
one grand fight over trivial matters,"
and that he was going home to attend to
more important business.
President Lynch said tonight that he
thought, that this season the National
commission would pass upon the sched
ules, arranging dates that would work
automatically in after years.
BOXKKS WILL MEET TONIGHT
Tommy Tracey to Offer Good Card
"at Merrill's Hall.
Tommy Tracey's young boxers are in
readiness, to appear in the boxing exhibi
tions at Merrill's, Hall tonight. Danny
O'Brien, who appeared, at the policemen's
smoker the other night, appeared to be
in fine trim and yesterday his manager,
Roger Cornell, announced that his entry
would Burprlse all of hia admirers when
lie faces Gene West tonight: West has
been working hard for the past two
weeks and says he will show some speed
tonight. He is being handled by Frank
Walker, a former trainer and sparring
partner of Ik Weir, the Belfast "spider."
Ned Whitman, who meets Bobby Evans
tonight, has been keeping himself in
active training all Winter, for Whitman
hopes to show his ability in California
won. Guy Lee and Bud Anderson, two
of Tommy Tracey's cleverest pupils, will
nppear in one of the ten-round bouts.
Tli is bout is expected to prove the live
liest exhibition seen here for some time.
The seats at Merrill's Hall have been
rearranged, so that ail present will be
afforded a first-class view of the ring.
Tonight's bouts, it is promised, will be
staged promptly on time.
l.ANIGAX AFTER "STHAX'GLER"
, British Champion Wrestler Seeks
.Match With Longshoreman Smith.
Negotiations are under way for a
match between Ed Lanigan, the English
rhampion wrestler, and "Strangler"
Smith, which may be staged here about
March 1. Ianlgan wanted a match with
O't'onnell, but the possibility of his get
ting a tryout with the hardy longshore
man was more enticing as an introduc
tory to the fans of Portland, who hardly
know the English grappier.
Smith is said to be anxious to meet
Lanigan and Lanigan, if he defeats the
longshoreman, expects to get a series af
matches in the Northwest before return
ing to England.

ELGIN, Or., Feb.' 17. "Cy" Young,
perhaps the greatest baseball pitcher
the world has ever known, who visited
in Elgin with his brother. Otto Young,
was the guest at a banquet at the Som
mer House Tuesday by the Elgin
fans. Plates were set for 40 people and
the affair was a success from every
standpoint. L B. Tuttle acted as toast
master and introduced several local
speakers, who discussed baseball and
athletic q'uestlons. When "Cy" Young
was called to address the party, there
was great applause.
Mr. Young has left for Hot Springs.

GAME UNUSUALLY ROUGH
COLUMBIA BEATS ALLEN 2 8 TO
6 AT BASKETBALL.
Players Laid Out, Windows Broken
and Hooters Make Bedlam as
Play Goes On.
In he roughest basketball game played
this season between interscholastic
teams, the Columbia University quintet
beat the Allen Preparatory team 26 to 6
yesterday in the Portland Academy gym
nasium. The last half of the game resembled
a football contest. Players were laid out,
one man crashed through a window light,
there were flying tackles and two open
fights and the roughness became great
er as the game neared an end. In spite
of this few fouls were called.
The audience was large and demonstra
tive, and during the latter part of the
game, when the rough tactics were so
much in evidence, the supporters of the
two teams kept up such a bedlam that
the referee's whistle could scarcely be
heard.
Within two minutes after the game
started. Shaver threw the only two bas
kets made by his team during the en
tire game. The Allen rooters commenced
to grow wild with enthusiasm, but their
hopes were dashed, as Shaver made a
free throw for the only other point se
cured by his team during the half, while
Columbia-rolled up 15 on baskets by Coch
ran, Fitzgerald and McAllen and three
foul goals by Cochran, Toward the end
of the half Fitzgerald crashed through a
window.
A foul goal by Hays netted the only
point for Allen in the second half, while
Columbia repeated the score of the first
period. The rough work was th feature
of the half. Shaver, the Allen center,
was held "out once for several minutes,
but he recovered and played desperately
during the remainder of the game.
The Columbia players used good team
work generally and the Allen Prep, lads
showed good form In spots, although they
were unable to connect with the basket.
This was the last game of the season
for Allen and the third game lost. Allen's
one victory was over Washington High
School. Columbia will play the last
game of the season against Portland
Academy next Friday. The teams lined
up yesterday as follows:
Columbia. Position. Allen.
Reed ,....C Shaver

JEFFRIES WANTS JURY TRIAL
Resists Suit of Sporting Men, Alleg
ing Loaded Dice.
NEVADA CITY, Cal., Feb. 17. Special)
James J. Jeffries, who is to meet Jack
Johnson in a world's championship fight
shortly, has demanded a Jury trial in the
action brought against him many months
ago by Charles J. Stout and Charles J.
Miller, supposed to be Nevada sporting
men, and this trial has been set for
February 23.
The sum involved is $500, which is said
to have been lost by Jeffries several
years ago while traveling through this
country. Jeff alleges he was victimized
by sharpers who used loaded dice to rob
him, and for that reason he refused to
pay his losses.
CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM CHOSEN
Seven Einish, of Thirteen Starters,
In Agricultural College Try-Out.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.
Corvallis, Feb. 17. (Special.) Thei finals
of the cross-country try-outs were held
today and a team was chosen to represent
this college in the annual cross-country
race with the University of Oregon.
.. The race will be run this year over the
university's four-mile course at .Eugene,
on Washington's birthday. Of the 13
starters in today's race seven finished
and the first five will constitute the team
that meets the University of Oregon. They
are Watson, Brown, Williams, Severance
and Burdick.
Watson's time for the distance, four and
a half miles, was 26:32. The record is
25:31. held by Da volt.
CHINN CASTS LOT IN FRANCE
Noted Horseman, Heavy Loser, Will
Sell String of Thoroughbreds.
JACKSONVILLE. Fla.. Feb. 17.
Racing at Moncrief was completely
overshadowed by the announcement of
H. T. Chinn, of Lexington. Ky., to the
effect that he would sell his 'string of
thoroughbreds here, March 5, at public
auction.
Colonel Chlnn said that he 'and his
connections were more than $200,000
loser, and the present chaotic condi
tion of the American turf has decided
him to cast his lot in France.
Don I in Ready to Play Ball.
NEW YORK, Feb. 17 It is now said
here that Mike Donlin has already
signed his 1910 contract with the New
York Nationals wind, will be ready to play
ball when the timet comes. But whether
Donlin will play with the New Yorks or
not is at present the doubtful point. Base
ball men seem to take it for granted that
Catcher John Kling, of the Chicago Cubs
will be reinstated by the National com
mission. John McGraw said some time ago
that he would have the first chance to get
Kling in case the Chicago Club decided to
trade the catcher.
The Franklin new air-cooling
system is more efficient and relia
ble than any water-cooling system.
The Franklin air-cooling system for 1910 is the
sensation of the year. It removes every objection,
real or fancied, which ever existed against air cooling
and places Franklin air cooling in the unchallenged
lead.
Compare the Franklin air-cooling system and the
water-cooling system with its many mechanical ele
ments and complications. Our system cannot fail to
work there is nothing to get out of order while the
water-cooling system with its fan, pump, radiator,
soldering, packing and piping is subject to disable
ments, leakage and freezing. . - .
It is plain that the Franklin cooling system makes
a great saving in weight, eliminates complication and
allows the whole automobile to be light, efficient and
economical.
, Franklin automobiles are built in three chassis sizes,
four- and six-cylinder, with twelve different body styles.

Walter McCredi'e Has Squad
of 28 Players to Care for
During Four Weeks.
PRELIMINARY GAMES SET
Gate Receipts From Early Contests
Will Be Consumed in Fares,
I but Portland Manager Is
Still Cheerful.
x Br""w. J. PETRAIN.
Manager Walter McCredie, of the Port
land baseball club, spent a busy day yes
terday figuring .out the transportation
cost and other incidentals attendant upon
the departure of himself and the mem
bers of the team to the training quarters
and also the cost of maintaining some
thing like 28 baseball players in camp
and on the road for four weeks before
the regular season opens. "Mac" wore
out three lead pencils and exhausted
the ink supply In his fountain pen. When
he wound up he sighed regretfully, and
looked at a bunch of figures aggregating
$3000.
"If anybody thinks it's fun to finance
a-ball club they ought to try it," said
McCredie yesterday. "All that is re
quired this Spring will be about $3000
before a nickel comes back. I'm glad
I don't have to start a team on the road
every month in the year. If I did I'd
be broke, the Judge (meaning Represent
ative McCredie) would be broke, and the
w"hole family would be so badly bent that
the straightening process would take a
million years."
Walter is consoling himself with the
possibility of recouping to some extent
through the medium of 19 exhibition
games arranged for the Portland team
during the training season, but at that,
a large per cent of the gate receipts
from these games will have to be used
to pay traveling and living expenses of
the' ball tossers.
Many Games Are Set.
The following is a list of exhibition
games to be played by the Portland
team between February 27 and March
30, the latter being the opening date of
the Pacific Coast League's season:
February IT, 28, March 2, 4 and 6 with
Santa Maria club.
March 14 with White Sox (Chicago Amer
ican Leagua team) at Santa Maria.
March la with White Sox at San Luis
Obispo.
March 16 with White Sox at Salinas.
March 17 with San Jose (State League)
at Ban Jose.
March 18 with San Jose at San Jose.
March 19 with San Jose at San Jose.
March 20 with Modesto at Modesto.
March 21 with Madura at Madera.
March 22 with Newman at Newman.
March 24, 25, 26 and 27 with Fresno at
Fresno.
March 28 with Santa Clara College at
Santa Clara.
March 3&- opens season with San Fran
cisco at San - Francisco.
The above list of games does not in
clude the contests likely to be arranged
at Santa Maria during the week of March
7-13, when a number of exhibition af
fairs with local teams will be held, or
interclub games played between "reg
ulars" and "Yannigans" of the Portland
players.
Out of theso games Manager McCredie
expects to be reimbursed for some of the
expenses he will incur on the training
trip. Manager McCredie had arranged for
four games with -the Chicago White
Sox, but one of these games was rather
indefinite and has since been called off.
However, three games with Comiskey's
warriors will prove satisfactory to Wal
ter McCredie, and he thinks he will be
able to show well against the big
leaguers.
In sending out the tickets to the mem
bers of the Portland team Manager Mc
Credie yesterday discovered that he had
not yet received the signed contracts of
George Ort and "Deacon" Wright, as
well as Ivan Olson, and forthwith wired
the trio that unless their contracts were
received by him immediately, he would
not forward transportation -to them. The
discovery that Wright and Ort had ' not
returned their signed contracts surprised
the tall manager, for the letters he re
ceived from them intimated no hitch on
terms.
"I don't think Ort and Wright are
holding out at all." said Manager Mc
Credie yesterday, "for both have written
PRAGT G

expressing satisfaction at the terms of
fered. It must be an oversight on their
part, for they would surely notify me -if
they were not satisfied with the terms
offered. I have received several letters
from both of them, and nothing was inti
mated about more money. I think they
will send in their contracts all right, and
will leave orders for railway tickets to
be sent them if the contracts do not ar
rive until after -we leave Tuesday night."
Manager McCredie visited the offices
of the Southern Pacific Company yes
terday and delivered his list of ad
dresses of his players, and before next
Tuesday the required transportation will
be forwarded to all of the men enrolled
on the Portland club for the coming sea
son. The members of the squad who are
in Portland will accompany the manager
on the trip Tuesday. Joe Smith, who is
at Blaine, Wash., will arrive in Portland
either Sunday or Monday, and go south
with the squad.
