PAL MOORE
Deluge of Wealth Is Having Effect,
and Men Ask at Least Twice as
Mucli as Formerly.
Jnpt what constitutes a ball play
er's dream of paradise is hard to
state, though a large salary, a flock
of Taiuy days, no double-headers and
a convenient place to crook the elbow
at $ cents a copy, would not be miss
ing: it very far; but if Jobs in quanti
ties carrying with them liberal com
pensation is anything akin to para
dise, then the ball players this year
have little to worry them. With new
leagues springing into existence, old
leagues being revamped, industrial
leagues shading the horizon and in
dependent teams blossoming forth in
all their pristine glory, the ball play
ers are leading the life of Riley.
The demand for the past two
months has been heavy, much heavier
than the supply, and any player who
can't land himself a good job should
nave his head examined. That is all
that ails him.
i Players Mark In Demand.
..bellows who haven't seen their
shoes except when they take them
off at night are gathering in the
kale with gnarled and palsied digits;
birds mellow with experience and
reminiscences are dusting off their
athletic hosiery in preparation for a
healthy season at the most alluring
of all pastimes, and others with the
dew of youth congealed behind their
ears are counting the wrinkles in the
sturdy face of Abe Lincoln that
gleams from a five-case note. They're
ball players, or were ball players, and
nothing else seems to matter.
These enterprising and opulent
magnates' from the sycamore organ
izations are flashing so much green
paint before the eyes of the athletes
that ere long they'll be suffering from
myopia, or some kindred disease.
Some of them are beginning to believe
that there are a few dimes running
around Iooeo that Alfy Putnam hasn't
confiscated.
And don't think for a minute that
this sudden deluge of wealth isn't
having its effect on the minor and
major league owners and managers.
"I can't compete with the salaries
that have been offered some of my
holdout players," said Ernie Johnson
recently. "Take the case of Prender
gast. There was a difference of $23
between us, and I finally agreed to
give it to him. I figured that he was
worth it to our club; but when he
came back with another wire saying
that he had been offered J200 more to
play Independent ball with the Frank
lin team in Pennsylvania, he was ue
yond my reach."
Every Manaaer Has Trouble.
Nearly every manager in the coast
league is up against the same propo
sition. Bob Steele, after signing his
contract with the Seals, with a prom
ise of a $600 bonus if he delivered the
goods, received such an excellent of
fer from the Oil City team that he re
futed to report to Graham.
"Mule" Watson will not report to
Sacramento because he can make
more money playing on the same
team with Prendergast.
"Tub" Spencer will not Join the Se
attle club because he has been of
fered a proposition in Idaho that he
can hardly afford to refuse.
Clarence Brooks of Vernon is an
other player who will toil this sea
eon in Idaho. He has been offered
more money than he wants to play
with Essick.
And there are quite a few players
in mo league ngnt now who are
seriously considering Jumping their
contracts, the golden bait ueing

player the other day. "I wish I hadn't

signed my contract in good faith, and

' Krug Listens to Voice Idaho.

a. guoa opportunity to get into a pay.
' uuoiness.' mused a prominent
coast league pitcher. "You're bound
've it a tnougnt, and believe me
im wrestling with my conscience
these nights."
VI felt this thing coming on," ex
plained McCredie the other day. "and
it i s me reason I fought shy of buy
log piayers in the winter. There was
no assurance that thev wu
port."
Bill Essick said recently it -was the
reason he was wary about buying
players while he was in the east dur
ing the winter months.
"The Pitler deal cured me," was
Essick's comment. "I had a chance
to buy him from Pittsburg, but the
Oil City fans not only offered him a
substantial salary to manage their
club, but they donated to him 21 pool
tabies. and today you can't get a table
In his pool parlors at hardly any
hour."
Red" Killefer is having a hard
time signing McAuley. for the reason
- that he knows he can get the money

barons.
I know personally that these ball
players in the east are not taikino- in
vain when they tell about fabulous
salaries," remarked Duke Reilly of
Salt Lake when he first joined the

a swell job at as much money as I
am getting from Salt Lake and, in
addition, $50 a week, to play ball
Only for the fact that I wanted to
come out here, I sure would have ac
cepted it."
Northwest Pilots Hit by Delusre.
Managers in the smaller leagues are
groaning under the weight of some
. of the demands ,that have been made
vpon them.
"Those money kings from the in
dustrial and independent leagues hav
jrure raised cain with the young ball
players." said Bill Leard, who will
manage the Victoria club this season
"Why. in the old Northwestern league
a player thought he was getting a lot
of money when he signed for $150;
taut now they can't talk to you quietly
unless you mention $300 or over: You
. ell them you can't afford to pay it.
and they'll tell you, "Well, I know
where I can get it,' and that ends the
argument."

TRAMBITAS HP FIXED
SAN FRANCISCO TO SEE TRIO
OF BROTHERS WORK.
Portland Boys to Appear Same
Night as Stellar Attractions at
Dreamland Rink.
All three members of the Trambltas
family of battlers will box in San
Francisco Friday night at Dreamland
rink. .
Valley Thambitas (Jimmy Darcy)
will meet Spud Murphy in the main
event of four rounds, Alex will meet
Sal Carlo in the semi-windup, while
Johnny Thambitas, the youngest of
the trio, who weighs about 125
pounds, will take on Earl Conners.
It will be Johnny's first start in the
south and his work will be watched
with interest by the local fans. He
ha never fought in Portland and
has only had two or three profes
sional fights in his life.
Valley and Murphy fought a six-
round bout in Portland some months
ago and later met in San Francisco.
Both boxers are big cards in the bay
city and are equally matched.
Sal Carlo is the boy who won over
Tillie Herman on a foul several weeks
ago and has also beaten some of the
best welterweights in California.
Johnny McCarthy won a decision over
1m two weeks ago but then Johnny
is liable to win over anyone and the
fans like Carlo's style of milling.
Frank E. Watklns, chairman of the
Portland boxing commission, expects
to announce shortly that Benny
Leonard, lightweight champion of the
world, will box here during the
Shriners" conclave. Watkine is en
deavoring to have .the Leonard match
put on the official programme of the
Shriners' convention. It is unlikely
that Leonard will agree to a ten
round decision bout here and will in
sist for a no-decislon mill. If such
is his demand it' would probably be
granted.
Pete Mitchle, the rugged Portland
lightweight, will make his bid for
fame in San Francisco Thursday
night when he will meet Eddie Ma-
honey of Oakland. The bout will be
the main event of the newly or
ganized Coliseum Athletic club of
which "Moose" Taussig is match
maker. Mitchle left for the south
last week. Mahoney Is a protege of
Jack Kearns, who is also the man
ager of Jack Dempsey.

SEALS AND ANGELS ALL SET
San Francisco Shows Spirit for
Team 'That Beat Cubs.
SAN FRANCISCO. CaL, April 6.
(Special.) The stage is all set for
the biggest baseball opening tomor
row In the history of San Francisco.
The Seals are not picking on any
cripples in this opening series, for
their opponents will be the Vernon
Tigers, champions of last year, who
have practically the same team that
won the flag and who are anxious to
show a wondering world that their
win was not a fluke.
The tremendous outpouring of fans
to see the Seals whip the Chicago
Cubs last Sunday shows there is
plenty of baseball interest here, and
the stands and bleachers tvill be
packed when Umpire Byron, late of
the National league, sends the Seals
and Tigers away for the opening
game.
Captain Jim Scott of the Seals and
Vetser Dell, a mammoth of a man
will be the opposing pitchers. They
are both righthanders, and mighty
god ones. Scott showed that he , is
ready by holding the Clucago Cubs
to two hits, and Dell is a better
pitcher now than when he was in the
National league.
For the first time since I . have
been connected with the Seals, the
boys are really hopped up and think
they have a chance to win the pen
nant?' said Manager Graham today.
Bill Essick. manager of the Tigers,
does not talk much, but he is quietly
confident that he has the strength to
win another flag. He crossed the ice
once by beating Los Angeles last
year after that team had piled up
what looked like a commanding lead.
The Tigers went into the last series
of the season two games behind the
Angels and literally battered their
way to a pennant.

Bobby Evans, who was recently ap

Moore has fought every good man
