FIELDER MARTI X RE RELEASED With Rutherford's Arrival Fans Wonder What of Outcome. PAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 4 (Special.) Walter MrCredle has released Out fielder Martinke on the ground that his stick work was not up to the standard of the balance of his club. The fact that Rutherford. McCredle's new college plaver. has arrived had something to do with the release, but after seeing Ruth erford in sctlon. the fans are wondering whether It was a wise move. Rutherford, who gained his baseball experience at Cornell, came to the Beav ers this week from Cleveland. He had his first trlsl today and while he showed up well aa a batsman, his fielding was far from being the best In the world. President Graham, of the Coasters, an nounced thle afternoon that he would en deavor to arrange a post series between the winners rn the Coast League and the Northwest League. Hi Idea is to test the strength of the two leagues. His proposition will be submitted to Presi dent Lucas at ones with the approval of the Cosst League directors. Olnmbnla Wins at Saratoga. SARATOGA.

"No more four-club league for my money," is the way that President Joe Cohn, of the Spokane club, expressed himself today on the baseball sltua tion. Cohn would not commit himself on the question of whether he would stand pat on the proposition of the ex pansion of the Coast League to include Seattle and Spokane, but went as far as to say: "I think the question of what we are going to do for next season should be decided early ln the game. If we drift along into the Winter without doing anything, matters wUl be mixed up and the different managers will not know how to prepare for 1911." In Spokane the sentiment appears to be in favor of a greater Coast League, and Cohn has said nothing t indicate that he is opposed to a move that will be agreeable to both ends of the Coast.
