Unless the dove of peace lights in
the rival camps of the outlaw Federal
league and organized baseball rather
eoon, the Portland Coast League club
is due to lose three more of i Is stars
to the Federal circuit.
Ray Bates, stellar third baseman and
the unanimous choice for all-star
honors at third base in the league,
held a conference with W. W. Me
Credie yesterday and announced his In
tention of Jumping to the JNewarks of
the Federal League.
Bates also said that Chuck Ward,
shortstop on the Portland club, in
tended to jump to the Brooklyn Feds,
and that Bill Stumpf, eecond baseman,
had an offer to play with the Balti
more Feds and expected to sign shortly.
Baltimore is Stumpf s home town.
"I live at Patterson, N. J., only a
lew miles from Newark," said Bates
last night. '"I held a conference with
V. V. McCredie yesterday, and par
tially put through a deal for the pur
chase of my release from Portland, be

it 1 can' help it.
My Newark offer is too good to
pass up, however, and if the Newark
ioik will sign a three-year contract,
orawn by my own lawyer and not
theirs, I will accept the offer. I ex

J'atterson.
Ward and Stumpf also are pretty
certain to go to the Federals, for both
nave had good offers.
Judge McCredie confirmed Bates'
statement about his conference with
Jiis star third baseman.
'Ray Is a clean, likeable fellow, and
jtave us good service this year," re
marked the Portland magnate. "He
wanted to go to the majors this Fall
and when nobody placed a draft
against him I guess it hurt him. If
he wants to buy his release I guess
we can come 10 terms, although I told
7iim I would have to consult Walter

3 MORE COASTERS MAY JUMP
Gedeon, or Bees, and Middleton and
Prouglj, or Oaks, Dissatisfied.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 1. (Special.)
Jimmy Johnston. Oakland's mainstay
in the outfield, already signed to a
contract to play with the Newark club
Jn the Federal League; Joe Gedeon of
Halt Lake, ready to accept an offer
with the same team, if indeed he has
not signed a contract; Roxy Middleton,
outfielder, and Clinton Prough, pitcher,
both of the Oaks, on the verge of jump
ing to the outlaws in baseball.
All this is said on good authority to
ibe the result of the week-end visit
that was made to San Francisco by
George Stovall. manager of the Kaw
feds and high in the councils of the
independents.
Salary cuts in the new Contracts of
fered by the Oakland management are
said to be the cause of dissatisf ication
co far as the players of that club are
concerned.
When word came earlier in the year
that the Cubs had refused to exercise
their option on Johnston, Jimmy, so it
is reported, was assured by Manager
Rowdy Elliott that he would be hand
somely treated. His 1916 contract, re
cently submitted to him. called for a
cut of $500 on the season and this
Johnston would not stand for.
Gedeon is aggrieved because of tht
desire of the Washington club to send
him to Minneapolis. The Senators held
an option on Joe and recalled him at
the end of the year. He insists that the
management is sore because he didn't
sign a contract calling for more money
than he received with Salt Lake and
now wants to punish him by sending
him to Minneapolis. Also he is open
in the assertion that he will not go to
a minor league club.
Whether he has signed as yet with
the Feds he will not state, but an au
thentic report says he has reached a
thorough understanding with Stovall.
Middleton. so the story goes, has a
minor financial difference with the
Oakland club and has threatened that
unless he is properly treated he will
flock with the independents.
Prough wants more money than the
Oaks seem desirous of giving him for
the coming season.

Columbia Parks and Oregon City
Battle ot e-to-6 Score. '
Close and hard-fought games were
piayea ounaay in the Intercity Foot

Circuit. Two tie contests were staged
in the Spalding division, while the

The Brooklyn-Nob Hill affair, which
resulted in a no-score match, was wit

is said to have used two or thr i
eligible players, and if this is the case
tne game win he forfeited to Brooklyn.
South Portland walloped the Junior

TRAPPING NOW IS ON
Furs Obtained Last Year Ne
About $10,000.
BEAVERS HAVE NO SEASON
arnlnir of Sentence and Heaw
Penalties Attached to Violations
Is Given 401 Wildcats En
snared During 1014.
Trapping, that is perhaps the most
remunerative of all pastimes for the
hunter, opens in this state Novem
ber 1.
There are a number of animals in
the state that are fur-bearing and
have enough of a commercial value to
warrant time and pains in their cap
ture. Predatory animals also have 1
commercial value, since there are boun
ties for their hides.
A report of last year's tranDing. made
to tne totate liame Warden, show that
ot an the trappers that turned in re
ports of their work for the Winter. 1
number that represented about 60 per
cent of the total number that took out
licenses, $10,000 was realized from the
sale or the furs and pelts.
Beavera Have No Open Season.
Of the fur-bearing animals the fol
lowing list shows the number of the
animals reported trapped in this state
ana their approximate values for each
sKin:
Mink, 1673, $2: muskrat, 17,681. 12
cents; marten, 266, S3; otter. 94, $7.25;
iisner, 1, la. '
According to information sained at
tne 01 1 ice of the State Game Warden
there seems to be a belief that there
is this year an open season for beaver.
There is, however, no open season for
these fur-bearing animals, -and there
both a fine -and a prison sentence
attached to a violation.- Heavy penal
ties are attached to violations of any
01 tne game laws.
The southwestern - and southeastern
parts of the state are the most fruit
ful fields for the mink, otter and mar
ten, and in the eastern part of the
state are found most of the predatory
animals.
401 Wildcats Killed Last Year.
Last year there were reported killed
401 wildcats. 25 cougars. 1 wolf and 28
bears. It has been estimated by of
ficials of the Game Warden's office
that the average number of deer that
are killed by these four mentioned ani
mals is 120 a year. The cougars and
wildcats kill more than that, and it is
easily seen what the state has gained
by having these animals killed.
The laws governing the trapping of
fur-bearing animals follow:
51. (a) Hereafter it shall be unlawful
for any person over 16 years of age, in the
State of Oregon, to hunt or trap on lands

hides taken or killed within or without the
state; provided, that the burden of proof
shall be with the trapper or dealer to proe
that the hide was taken at such time as
such killing or taking was lawful.
IK) Nothing In this act shall be con-
trued to prevent any person from protect
ing his own premises from the depredation
of any fur-bearing animals enumerated in
n's section. (Laws mis. chapter 232.)

Gilmour Dobie, coach of Universiey

Washington will have to play a lot

against Whitman to hope for a vic

doubt if they can do it.

Coach Frank Hinkey, of Tale, and
Hurry Up" Yost, of Michigan, are be
ing panned in the East for going out
upon the field of play in recent games
to protest against decisions of the of
ficials. Both of ttkem were fortunate in
that the officials did not enforce the
rule which calls for the infliction of
an additional 15 yards for jumping out
onto the field that way without the
necessary permission. It is not only
undignified, but a distinct step back
ward for the coach of a big college
team thus to lose his head. Little
wonder there is agitation for relegat
ing the coaches to the grandstands.
Columbia University may not win the
world's championship this Fall, but one
thing sure, the team is progressive.
Coach Metcalfe has ordered that the
players wear numbers on their backs,
