KITCinE QCAKTERS THROXCED Odd Remain 2 to 1 on Champion, With Little Mnrphy Money. PAX FRANCISCO. Dec. 7. fSpeclaL) Willie Ritchie, who will defend his lightweight title against Harlem Tom my Murphy this week, seems to have struck a popular chord. The title Isn't the only drawing card at the Ritchie camp. Yesterday at Millets fans were a thick as frogs on a log. About 400 of them crowded Into space that was meant to comfortably accommodate t.m'.t that number. They followed every move that Ritchie made while he was In sight, and they would have followed Into the dressing room If the strong arm of Harry Foley had not Interfered. Probably an hour was given over to the full workout, of which the most Interesting was the boxing. Ritchie boxed seven rounds, one over the limit probably as a concession to the big gathering. As to his condition. Ritchie looks all that could be desired. He Is not drawn about the face as In the earlier train ing. Apparently he Is not overweight There was no betting today and no change In the odds of 1 to 1 In favor of the champion. Tbe tendency seems to be for round betting, tho favorite prop ortion, being; even money that Ritchie 1 I will atop Murphy befors th end of SO rounds. At S to 1, the Murphy money ha not appeared.

So much has been done In advance by way of smoothing the pathway of tha Na tional League magnates that on , th eve of their assembling here for their annual meeting every expectation pre vails that harmony will prevail In their sessions. The question of the presidency annually has been some thing of a stumbling block, but this year everything seems to have been settled beforehand, with the agree ment that John K. Tener, Governor of Pennsylvania, shall be elected to the office, succeeding Thomas J. Lynch. - Governor Tener, who may attend the meeting, probably will be elected for a term of four or five years at a sal ary of not less than Jlo.000 a year. Ills incumbency for th-; first year will be largely honorary, however, aa his terra as Governor does not expire until 1915. but the understanding Is that he la to be consulted freely on matters of policy, although the actual work of the position Is to be taken care of by Secretary Heydler. The magnates will consider the de mands of the Players' Fraternity for changes In contracts. Several minor changes in the playing rules are on the card for discussion and the sched ule committee I to be appointed. The field of Joe Tinker's activity for next season may be one of the questions decided. SPORT - NEWS Professional baseball In Western Canada Is organised on a buslenss ba sis.

COMMISSIONER IS CHOSEN Construction of Jetty From Hayden Island to Turn Water Toward Washington Shore to Seour Channel Approved. VANCOUVER, Wash., Dec 7. (Spe cial.) Though ther are approximately (000 voters In tb district comprising tb Port of Vancouver, It Is thought fawer than 100 went to th poll at a general election to elect C. E. Abel. Port Commissioner, and approve tb plan of th Commissioner regarding the Improvement of th Vancouver harbor of tb Columbia River. The first work to be don will be the construction of a jetty 2000 feet long, out from Hayden Island, about a mile and a half below th big steel railroad bridge spanning tb Columbia River here. Tbl jetty will have a ten dency to throw the water nearer the Washington shore line to scour a deeper channel. Three other dike will be built later along tbe Oregon side of the river. 1 Advertising for bids for the con struction of the jetty Is to be done first This will require 30 days, so it Is probable that actual construction will not begin before February 1. In the Port fund now 1 about 114,000 and 17000 mora coming In this year from taxes. There also Is about $11. 000 left from a Government appropria tion, which can ba. used only for dredg ing. It Is planned by the Port of Van couver Commissioners to work in con nection with tha Government and share equally the expense of Improving the river. DEEP CHAXXKL- IS POSSIBLE Extension of North Jetty at Coo Bay Won Id Give Desired Results. - "All that Coos Bay needs to make it one of the finest deep-water harbor In the United States la to have the north Jetty built up and extended " said Cap tain Macgenn. of the Breakwater, which arrived In port at 11 o'clock yes terday. "It is the opinion of all sea faring men who sail to Coos Bay that the south Jetty Is not needed because of the splendid headland of solid rock that protects the south side of the harbor. -The recent etorm washed away 30 feet of the inner bents of the Jetty. There are only about 40 or 70 feet left of the best and most effective Jetty that aver was constructed In th United States. "The Jetty wss finished In 101. Tbe building took 11 years. There were fully 1400 feet of sunken Jetty. Al though the Government appropriated $1,450,000 for th work only ("00,000 were spent on It and the rest of the money was returned to the Government Every effort of the people for th last five year has failed to secure from th Government a reappropriatlon of part of thia money, which the Coo Bay peo ple consider really belongs to them. A channel of 26 feet was secured at low water and. 32 feet at high water. "Th Fort Commission is digging a 20-foot channel from the big C. A. Smith lumberrlll to the sea. a distance of IS miles. Two miles of It already are completed. "In addition to the jetty buoy drag ging Inshore th Jetty whistling buoy was put out of order In the recent storm, but the splendid Tog horn at Caps Argo. will take care of the situa tion until repairs can b made.
