Sensational plays crowded each other

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.

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.
OLD BALLOT TITLE STANDS
Court Annuls Change on Indemnity
Bill, Causing New Tangle.
SALEM. Or.. Aug. 4. (Special.)
Judge William Galloway in Circuit
Court last night held that the Attorney
General had exceeded his jurisdiction
ln withdrawing the original ballot title
of the Employes' Indemnity Commis
sion Initiative measure, as filed with
the Secretary of State, and ln filing a

ALBANY, Or., Aug. .4. (Special.)
Coincident with the opening of the deer
season this week, there has been a
rush of hunters to the Cascade Moun

Than Brownell or Senator.
CAN-BY. Or.. Aug. 4. (Special.) Leroy
D. Walker, who was recommended by the
Republican County Assembly of Clacka
mas County for the nomination for State
Senator, has decided to decline to run,
and has forwarded his letter of declina
tion to the chairman of the assembly.
Mr. Walker's reason for declining was

the recommendation coming unsolicited,
he "could not at this time drop his pri

While receiving assurances of hearty sup
port from nearly all precincts in the
county, he has decided that he could not
accept the place.
It Is the wish ofTnost of the Repub
licans that someone otherthan Brownell
receive the primary nomination on the
Republican ticket, as they say they will
not vote for Brownell. Other offices
seem to be pretty well distributed and
the party seems to have a good lot of
candidates.
