Year for Portland Team.
IOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 18. (Spe
cial.) Bill Stumpf, second baseman for
the Beavers, left today for his home
In Baltimore. Md following the receipt
of a telegram that his father was se
riously ill.
It la believed Stumpf will not return,
as he has had an offer from the Balti
more Federals, and It is thought he
will remain there.
It be comes to the Coast the chances
are he will be traded to the Tigers.
"Bill" Rogers will cover second for
the Beavers next year.

LOS ANGELES. Cal., OoL 18. Upon
the return of the Vernon Coast League
team today, G. Harris White, the for
mer Chicago American pitcher, who
took charge as manacer on the death
of "Happy" Horr-n, early In the sea
son, was given notice of his release.
"Ham" Patterson, who piayed first base
for the team two years ago and was
manager this year of the Wichita, Kan,
team of the Western League, will man
age Vernon next year.
He was given a club that figured to be
battling for the pennant, and while he
has met with a series Oaai Misfortunes
in the shape of accidents and the like
to hiB star players, there Is, no denying
that the showing of the Angels has
been disappointing to the new Los An
geles owners.
Rowdy Elliott Is the third- Coast
League manager whose berth has been
reported from time to time as shaky,
due, no doubt, to the numerous and
sudden changes made in the past by
the trans-bay owners. Rowdy has been
going right ahead laying plans for the
next season and unless there is a
change in the ownership of the club he
likely will be on tap in 1916. Wolver
ton, Blankenship and McCredie are rea
sonably sure of retaining their places
ior next season.

MEDFORD, Or.. Oct. 18. (Special.)
At the largest and most enthusiastic
meeting of the Commercial Club held
In recent years. Charles Robertson, of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce, to
night extended the olive branch of
peace and good will to the people of
Southern Oregon and urged that the
two sections of the state Join hands in
an effort to develop the state as a
whole and bring prosperity to all sec
tions. "You nay we have tried to thog it
all," said Mr. Robertson. "Well, we
have. You say we have worked against
Astoria and Southern Oregon. We plead
guilty.
"But these were errors of the past.
They should have nothing to, do with
the future. We have reorganized the
Portland Chamber of Commerce; we
have a new spirit. We have 2000 young
men of Portland enrolled as members.
They have a new spirit. And this new
spirit may be expressed by the phrase
'team play.' TTe realize now that Port
land never can become a great city
until Oregon becomes a great state.
We realize that Portland can only grow
and prosper as the other communities
of the atate grow and prosper.
Mistakes) Are Admitted.
"We want to help you. We want you
to help us.
"We admit our mistakes and errors
of the .last. We hope you may lo the
same and that we let by-gones be by
gones and Join hands In bringing the
prosperity to Oregon to which a state
with its unlimited resources is entitled.-'
On behalf of the local Commercial
Club, President Gates responded to Mr.
Robertson's speech, thanked him heart
ily for his message of good will and
asked him to take the message back to
the organization he represented that
Medford and Southern Oregon are heart
and soul with the new movement for
all the various parts of the state to
Join with Portland in furthering the
welfare of the entire commonwealth.
Alexander Nlbley and F. S. Bramwell,
of the Oregon-Utah Sugar Company,
spoke and gave formal assurance thai
a million-dollar beet sugar factory
would be built in Rogue River Valiey
Just as soon as 6000 acres of beets were
signed up.
Ns Banns Is Asked.
"We have the money," said Mr. Nib
ley, "and you have the soil and sun
shine. We ask no bonus, no land, no
financial aid. All w-j ask is that you
people of Jackson County grow the
beets. After one factory is established
and is successful, mure will be built.
"Thanks to the promise of Secretary
McAdoo that the dollar tariff on sugar
witl be retained, a great opportunity
lies before the people of Oregon in the
way of beet culture. We are now ship
ping sugar from Utah to Washington.
This shoold all come from Oregon."
A beet sugar committee was named
by PreaMent Gates, and they will at
once start out to sign up acreage for
the beet sugar factory.
Judge W. M. Colvlg. of Portland, rep
resenting the Portland Land and Prod
ucts Show, urged Rogue River ranchers
to send exhibits and a delegation to
Portland.
President Gates announced he and

Los Angeles Attorney-Ballplayer Who
Slagged Spectator After Being
Assaulted, Meets With Favor.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. IS. (Spe
cial.) -Attracted by the pugnacious
spirit which caused "Rush" Meadows, a
local ballplayer, to punch a constable
at Kullerton yesterday, Walter Mc
Credie, manager of the Portland ball
club, today declared he would sign
Meadows if the latter cared to play
with Portland.
According to McCredie, who missed
the game between Fullerton and the
Pacific Electric team of this city.
Meadows was assaulted by a spectator,
who stood six feet in height. Meadows
is only a little fellow, but he met the
giant half way and floored him with a
straight left.
"Meadows' blood was up and he was
ready to fight the whole town when
the constable hove in sight and clasped
him by the shoulder," related McCredie
today. "Rush was so angry that he
couldn't see the officer's star and he
biffed him between the eyes. ' Friends
saved him from arrest.
"In addition to his grit in defying the
whole stand of angry Fullerton parti
sans, he played a dandy game of ball."
McCredie does not believe Meadows
will accept an offer, as the player is an
attorney and Is connected with the
legal department of a local corporation.
COURTMARTIAL IS BEGUN
LIEUTENANT -COLONEL GOODIEB
PLEIADS NOT GUILTY.
Officer la On Trial for Alleged Altera
tion mt Aeensntlon nf Aviation
Captain.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18. Lieutenant-Colonel
Lewis E. Goodier. judge-
advocate of the Western Department
of the Army, pleaded not guilty today
in a courtraartlal before which he is
accused of having altered specific
charges preferred last April by certain
Army officers against Captain Arthur
S. Cowan, commandarft of the signal
corps' aviation school at San Diego.
Captain Cowan, who was charged with
having drawn for two years the pay
of an aviation o'fficer when he was sent
to San Diego, not as an aviator, but a
an executive officer, will himself be a
witness. It was said.
The morning session of the court
martial was devoted largely to routine
organisation and examination of Lieu
tenant Roy C. Klrtland of the 22nd In
fantry, said to have been one of
Cowan's accusers. Letters intending
to show his and other officers' con
nections with the charges against Cap
tain Cowan were Introduced.
Demurrers Filed in Case of North
River Road Supervisor Sustained.
SOUTH BEND. Wash.. Ort lR
ciaL) Judge Alston, of Everett, sitting
for Judge Wright, late this afternoon
sustained supplemental demurrers to
the seven indictments against Homer
F. Blaine, former road nunervlsnr nf th
North River night-rider district, who
was charged with grand larceny in
ceruiying tne names or cooks of the
roaa camp in place of laborers.
Judge Alston held that the indict
ments did not charge Blaine with ob
taining the warrants himself or hav
ing any beneficiary interest in them,
and the charge of grand larceny could
not be maintained.
These cases. arose out of the exigen
cies of the topography of North River,
as it was impossible to get a boarding
place "nearer than six miles from the
road camp, and a cook had to be car
ried on the payroll.
Estate May Be Probated.
Because Edward Evans has been miss
ing since the San Francisco earthquake
and all efforts to And him have -proved
unavailing, his brother, Richard Evans,
bas petitioned the Probate Court to
permit his share of the estate of their
father. George Evans, to be distributed
te the heirs of Edward Evans. The
amount of the share is not set forth.
The heirs are Richard Evans and s
nephew and niece of the missing man.

LUMBER BOOMS AT BAKER
Mill Will Run All Winter Provided
Logs Can Be Secured.
BAKER, Or.. Oct. 18. (Special.)
That the lumber business is booming
aa never before in Baker was indicated
today when it was announced by the
Oregon Lumber Company that if log
ging can be successfully conducted, the
big mill In Baker, having a monthly
output of more than 2.500.000 feet of
lumber, will be operated through the
entire Winter for the first time in the
history of the company.
The demand for lumber is steadily
increasing, ana more of the commodity
is being shipped from Baker than for
years past. It is thought that it will
be necessary to run the local mill in
conjunction with the Austin plant in
order to keep up with the demand.
Between 40 and 50 men are employed
at the Baker mill and yards who would
otherwise be laid off for a large part
of the cold season.
