Muggsy UcGraw's war chest will have to show more pay dirt than was offered to Art Kores, else the drafted Portland third Backer will not be seen in a New York Giant uniform in 1915. This much was settled definitely yesterday when the Dutchman abso lutely declined to sign a 1915 contract with New York for $2100 the estimat ed amount offered. President McCredie, of the Portland . club. proxy representative . of the Giants, telegraphed John . B. Foster, New York secretary, after his confab with Kores and reported that Kores demanded more money. Whether New York will come through with a better salary contract i- . i- . i : ..111 .1 . ..V. to Dave Bancroft remains to be seen. Bancroft declined a similar contract several weeks ago when McCredie had a deal on with McGraw for an out right sale. Bancroft may snap up the opportunity that he sees slipping away to another player or he may remain by his guns. Whichever man wins it is an even bet that the loser will jump to the Federals. The Pacific Coast League Is not in position to offer the players the money they seem to think they are worth and both have been approached by the Federals. v 'I may not receive a reply from New York until tomorrow morning," said Mr. McCredie. "Personally it doesn't make' any difference to me who goes, but I think Kores is making a colossal mistake. "He doesn't even know if be can make good at New York yet. Once he makes good then he can go out and demand big money. Not now." Rain caused a postponement of the Portland-Venice series again yesterday, making two in a row. If the weather man smiles this afternoon it will be big Ed Klepfer against Southpaw Evans at 3 o'clock. Harkneas was scheduled to pitch yes terday, but Speck took unto himself a wife last night Miss, Margaret Hackett and is now on his honeymoon. As a result of the postponements double-headers will be played both Saturday and Sunday. - ' A special meeting of the Pacific Coast League directors has been called for Friday night at San Francisco. W. W. McCredie received a telegram from President Baum yesterday and may attend. Just what is in the air is a secret. It may be the drafts or it may be the Sacramento-Mission affair. Suffice it to say these frequent league sessions presage some important event in base ball west of the Rockies. Nobody knows yet Just what trans pired at the recent conclave of mag nates, but Friday's meeting may tear the cover off the mystery. Irve Higginbotham, star Portland pitcher, is in receipt of an offer from Manager Knabe, of the Baltimore Fed erals, marking a further advance of the invading army of outlaws in the Coast League. "I have not yet signed with Portland for 1915, but I think , the McCredies will treat me fairly and I don't intend to desert," said Hig. fondly caressing his Baltimore document. see. If the majors intend drafting a Venice player they are keeping it mighty secret, according to Happy Ho gan. Hap says he hasn't heard a word from anybody and hopes he - never hears. "Such men as Bayless and Hitt are worth $5000 to me and I don't want to lose any of them for $2500," remarked Happy. "It will cost me more than that to replace them next season." While Kores and Bancroft are busy declining big league berths, note this from Fred Derrick: "I wish Muggsy McGraw would try to make me slern for $350 a. month a nA the chance to get into a world's series. "Guess I'll have to drop him a post- card and suggest it. Merkle ha3 been going so badly at first that he has been put on the bench. I couldn't do much worse than Merkle, could I?" Primitive life appeals to the esthetic tastes of Bill Rodgers. Portland lnfleld er. who goes to Cleveland next season. Rodgers has purchased a 22-foot boat, equipped it with a 3 -horsepower en gine, and intends to spend the Winter trapping on the upper waters of the Columbia River. . "I intend to take my wife and child a couple of hundred miles up the river from Portland." explained the mighty bear hunter. "It will take me a couple of weeks to get there, but one thing, we will -always be at home, no matter where we tie up for the night. " "That beats lounging around a hotel all Winter." Rodgers spent two Winters in the wilds of the Cascades hunting cougar and bear. AXGELS WALK OFF WITH GAME Oaks Go Down to 9-1 Defeat Before Love's Fast Teammates. LOS ANGELES. Sept. 16.

Missions and Seals May Play on Same Grounds If Directors Favor the Trsnsfer of LaniL SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16 (Spa- cial.) At a special meeting of the Pacific Coast League next Saturday night it will be decided whether the San Francisco Mission club Is to be permanently settled with Recreation Park on Valencia street as its home. Through negotiations that have been proceeding for some time, Harry Wol verton, manager of the Mission-Wolves, has personally secured an option from Ed Walter, of the latter's 20-year lease on the Valencia-street grounds. J. Cal Ewing. one of the chief stock holders jot the San Francisco Seals, has agreed that he will offer no op position to two teams regularly located in San Francisco, but has suggested that the entire proposition be placed before the league directors, an action that was advised , by President Baum. WhtlA thni la a nstaa! Ki 1 1 i . U - e,vent of a favorable vote, that such a move would be taken this season, Harry Wolverton intimates tha't it is more man iiKely an adjustment of that sort will not be reached until 1915. and that for the remainder of the present year the schedule of games will be rounded out at Ewing Field. Whether Ewing Field is to be aban doned is the problem that the league magnates decline to discuss at the pres ent moment. It is likely that Ewing would favor a transfer of all games in San Francisco to the old field If it should be found that the 20-year lease on the Ewing Field could be dropped without too much of a loss to the par ties involved.

Baseball Statistics LS' LEADER FOR TRUCE Gilmore Wants His Men. to" Have Chance for Cham pionship of World. FORGET ACTS OF WAR PLEA i-resiaent or .ew League Says Sport- Loving Public Will Xot Stand for Long Classing Organization as Enemy of Organized Ball. CHICAGO, Sept- 18. A chance for the Federal League to participate in the world's series was asked today In a let ter from James A. Gilmore, president of the 'Federal League, to members of the National Baseball Commission. In his plea for a truce in the inter ests of the supporters of the game, Mr. Gilmore declared that the National agreement did not prohibit the clubs in organized baseball playing an outside club, outlined the claims of the Fed erals to be regarded as a major league, and contended that no club rightfully could claim the world' championship until it had met the pennant winners of the Federal League. "Our organization is backed by busi ness men of high standing, who stand for every principle which leads to the improvement of basebalL" he wrote. "The Federal League .has on its roster many stars of world-wide fame, and -has gathered about it as splendid an aggregation of baseball players as is possible for any league. "While it is true that in your na tional agreement we are classed as an enemy of organized baseball, the phrase cannot survive the force of time and the demands of the sport-loving public. Your national agreement con tains no provision prohibiting you from an honest contest with any ball club you may see fit- to meet, and before either of the two clubs In organized baseball who win pennants in their re spective leagues can claim the world's championship they must in some man ner play the winner of the Federal League pennant. "We therefore suggest, in the Inter est of the game, that at least for the time being we forget our differences and our acts of war and peacefully, in keeping with the spirit of American business men, arrange a schedule for a world's championship between the three leagues." Copies of the letter were sent to August Herrmann, chairman of the commission; Ban Johnson and John K. Tener, presidents of the two major leagues. XATIOXAIj leagxte. Xew York 8, Cincinnati 1.

"58. .The complete electrification of a railway will necessitate a rearrangement of ideas and practieea ui regard to operation. Coaling and watering places will not be needed; passenger trains will be dif ferently composed, some classes being of less weight, and they will operate more frequently, thus pro moting travel ; other trains will be heavier than at present, or will operate at higher speeds, and branch lines, by the use of electrically-fitted cars, can be given a through service not now enjoyed. "59. The movement of freight will undergo great changes, due to the fact that electric locomotives can be constructed with reat excess capacity, enabling them to move longer trains at schedule speed on rising gradients. " "60. The large percentage of shunting operations due entirely to the use of steam locomotives will no longer be required. "62. Notwithstanding the 'fact that great strides have already been made in cheapening the cost of generating electricity by steam engines, I foresee, from the progress made in the development of gas and oil engine power, a still further reduction in cost, which will accelerate the work of electrifying existing railways. "63. One important aspect of this great . question will engage the thoughtful consideration of every government, namely, the military necessity for uniform railway equipment in time of war. "66. In conclusion, I can only repeat and earnestly recommend to the serious consideration of railway engineers and those in authority the pressing need of determining the system which, admits of a prompt selection of those standards of electrification which will render possible a complete interchange of traf fic in order to save expense in the future and to avoid difficulties and delays certain to arise unless some common understanding is arrived at very shortly."

This being the fact, what does Remember, this system is for Motor Trucks, Fire Apparatus, Street Cars, Motor Boats, and where ever a steam engine is used for propelling power it can be used. Mr. E. H. Harriman said the time would come when electricity would supplant steam as motive power on all railroads, and that the investor who comes in at the beginning would be the one who received the greatest returns. The hU Mr. RICHARD WILSON, in a letter to Dr. IL B. Ewbank, dated Los Angeles. Cal., Jan. 28th. 1913, said regarding the Ewbank Motor Car. No. 333: - "A I have said many times before, and still say, I believe It to be a winner. I Viave no doubt that when the car is out of the shop and on the rails, those good people that had doubts that the wheels would not turn will feel very much disappointed that they did not have more confidence In your son's statements in re gard to his ability to build a car to take the place of the present street railway cars, besides entering into many other lines of transportation. I wish your son every success In his Inventions." As soon as the Multiple Unit System has been tried out, which will be in a few months' time, when trailers are ready, the LAST NUT "WILL BE CRACKED and those who have the ability to follow the above men in forecasting the future, first of the great need of such an invention, then turn to the RECORDS OF THE EWBANK Locomotive No. 333, and they can't help from saying, THIS FILLS THE BILL. " The president of the Ewbank Electric Trans. Co., Mr. S. M. Mears, who is a practical man, feelu that this system will do what Mr. Westinghouse desired to se brought about. Mr. W. H. Hurl bert, an old experienced railroad man, says that he feels that the inventor is going to make good. What does the Westinghouse Air Brake mean to railroading! Mr. Westinghouse offered to a gentleman in Baltimore, the gentleman told the writer, way back in the early history of his brake, before one was out in use, he offered to sell one-half interest in the invention for $5000. 'Now it is worth hundreds of . millions. - A limited amount of the stock will be offered till farther notice. Stock sold at par, $100 per share. DR. H. B. EWBANK, Exclusive Sales Agent.
