NAVY BOYS BEAT
was won by Vancouver as against Cali
fornia, and this year Victoria took away
the honors; from Vancouver.
California has a right to challenge
Victoria, but there arc a number of rea
sons why this will probably not be
done. In the first place, mnpt of the
men would like to spend their Christ
mas holidays at home. Lpst Christmas
they went to British Columbia and last
Summer they had a long trip to Aus
tralia. Now, so they say, they want a
genuine rest.
Further, Coach Jimmy Schaefer. of
California, had a tittle spat with some
of tiie Britlsli Columbia people, and it
Is whispered about tnat ho docs not

OCEAN RATE CUT LIKELY

Gain or $533. 339 in Year.
WASHINGTON. Nov. TS. Thomas
Sammons. of Tacoma. row Consul-t.en-
rral at Yokohama, Japan, recently sub
mitted to the Pepartment of Commerce
and I-abor the following report on ship
subsidies In Japan:
Off the Japanese ship subsidies ffor
1SI0-11. which show an Increase of
SSo3.3! over 190-10, the total subsidies
for the three Important steamship serv
ices are divided as follows:
Service. ' 190-ln. 1910-11.
Furopean Line l.0!.S0 l.-.,S.5i
N. American Line.. 1.714. 03 2.I2S.K6
S. American Line.. 2S9.78S J63.4S8
Total 3,il7,048 $4.18.::3
The Increased subsidies (or the North
American routes tto San Francisco and
Puget Sound ports) Is due to an in
crease off Osaka Siiosen Kalsha steam
ers from four to six and tho replacing;
of a l78-ton with a 17.000-ton steamer
by the Toyo Klsen Kalsha. The same
company Increases the South American
subsidy by adding: the 6178-ton vessel,
above referred to. to that route. Slight
schedule changes result In reducing the
European subsidies.
The Japanese, under the above sub
sidies, operate three lines to the Cnlted
States, one to South America, and one
to Europe, the Japanese steamers out
numbering the American steamers on
the North American routes. Under op
erating agreements which have recent
ly been severed soma of the Japanese
steamers have not developed their full
speed on the San Francisco route, and
It remains to be seen whether these
Japanese vessels, as well, as the Ameri
can steamers, will be pushed to a
greater speed limit.
There are possibilities, moreover, of a
cut in rates on trans-Pacific steamship
lines as the result off prevailing condi
tions. HILL ESTATE NOT LARGE

CHICAGO. Nov. 16. A dispatch from
New York savs:
Pince the death of ex-Cnited States
Senator David B. Ht'.l, many esti
mates, of the aggregate value ' of his
estate have been made. Mr. Hill was
a man off such secretive methods, so
taciturn with respect to his personal

anythlm; he said which would convey
any hb-a of his professional earning"-
BJt the common Impression was that
he had accumulated a large fortune,
that accumulation beginning: Imme
diately after his retirement from the
I'nlted States Senate, when he devoted
himself to the practice off law.
Many times the question has been
asked of lawyers what In their opin
ion his estate would amount to In
money value. No estimate was lower
than 1100.000, not Includlnc the beau
tiful home named Wolferts Roost.
Some off t tic estimates have fixed the
gros value of the estate as hlth as
. 100.000.
Every one off these estimates was er
roneous. The most Intimate friends
who have been permitted 1o see the
flKures that tell of his wealth have
learned that his porsnnil estate Is not
In excess of 12.1,000 am. may be less
than that. What Wolferts Boost will
fetch at executor's sale no ono can
tell. Not until the death of Mr. Hill
has it been known to any except two
or three off his friends that he pa.J
only t.3.000 for this property, but the
present estimate Is that the entire es
tate, personal and real, will not yield
more than 150.000.

IlKMAM) SllTHAuK.
"We Want to Co-operate Willi Men,
Not Ilule Them," Says Mrs.
Abigail S'olt Punlway.
Can women maintain an organization,
work In harmony and not fight?
Mrs. Abigail 8cott Punlway, president
of the Oregon Kjua! Suffrage Associa
tion, says they can and points to the re
cent victory of the Washington Equal
Suffrage Association In carrying the
constitutional amendment In Washington
by ait overwhelming majority.
"The campaign in Washington was
nothlnff more thnn Just common sense,"
said Mrs. Dunlway last night. In re
viewing the victory of the suffragists
in Washington. "The Washington as
sociation had been divided on questions
pertaining to the organization, but before
theelecthjn they burled the hatchet and
all worked together. They made It plain
that the women do not want to rule the
men. I wouldn't give a snap of my fin
ger for a man who would be ruled by a
woman, nelther'wfiuld any woman who is
real woman. We don't want to rule
men. We want ro co-operate wutt tnem.
Economic conditions make It necessary
for women to co-operate with men. I'n-
der piesent economic conditions, women
are In- sharp cdmpetition with men.
Eliminate this competition by putting
men and women on an equal basis in pol
itics in voting power, nnd many of the
great evils now complained of will soon
disappear.
"When the men of Washington under
stood that the women did not' want to
rule them, that they merely wanted to
co-operate with them In matters of leg
islation for the welfare of the state and
Its citizens, they were willing to give
women the fight of suffrage and they
did It. We propose to carry on the same
kind of campaign In Oregon for the next
two years. The five Western states that
have equal suffrage will help us. It will
be no spectacular campaign, there will
be no alignment with political parties.
'wets' or 'drys' or Isms. We are work
ing for votes for women and that la all.
We have that one issue before us. tt
bears no relation to any party or politi
cal faction, it will not be confused with
other Issues.
"We now have petitions out In all
parts of the state and as soon as they
are filed our campaign will begin. Vari
ous systems of campaigning have been
tried in Oregon and failed. Now the wo
men propose to conduct the campaign
themselves. Just as the women of Wash
ington did. and we will not only , win but
maintain the respect' of all men as well.
Our proposed amendment this time gives
all women the right ato vote, whether or
not they are taxpayers. Just the same
as the franchise is given to men. The
amendment reads:
' 'Section 2 of article II of the consti
tution of the State of Oregon shall be
and hereby is amended to read as fol
lows:
Section I. In all elections not other
wise provided for by this constitution,
every citizen of the United States, of the
age of 21 years and upwards, who shall
have resided in the state during the six
months Immediately preceding such elec

of the age of 21 years and upwards, who
shall have resided in this state during
the six months Immediately preceding
such election, nnd shall have declared
his or her Intention to become a citizen
of the United States one year preced

Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club. left
last night at fi o'clock for San Fran

OTonnell, wrestling and boxing in
structor. I-Tdgar Frank, the 125-pound cham
pion of the Pacific Coast, was to ac
company the other wrestlers to defend
his title, but because of business in
terests was unable to go. If it can so
be arranged he will leave tonight, ar
riving there In time to enter his bouts
tomorrow night. There will he two
nights of wrestling, Monday and Tues
day. Grapplers from all over the Pacific
Coast arc on their way to the wrest
ling convention.' Three mat "artists"
passed through Portland yesterday on
their way to the California city. Eddie
McDonald, weighing 25 pounds, will
represent the Seattle Young Men's
Christian Association: Will Walker, a
middleweight, and Fred Smith, a light
weight, will wear the colors of the
Vancouver Amateur Athletic Club.
Franske at first was entered In the
welterweight class, which would allow
him to go In at 145 pounds. By strenu
ous work lie reduced his weight enough
to allow lilm to enter the 135-pound
class, where he wfll have a better
chance. Edgar Frank expected to com
pete in both the 125-pound class and
the 13S-pound division.
Instructor O'Connell will not accom
pany the wrestlers home. He has a
match scheduled with Mike Yokel,
wrestling Instructor of the Salt Iwike
City Young Men's Christian Association,
In Salt Lake City on December i. He
also has prospects of a match with a
grappler named Ross. In Ogden, Utah,
the following night. Yokol, weighing
J6S pounds. . defeated the Portland
wrestler last year, who -neighed In at
145 pounds. For this match Yokel has
agreed to come down to the welter
weight mark to meet O'Connell. When
he left last night O'Connell expressed
the opinion that he can defeat the
Salt Lake man If they wrestle at even
weights. If the match with Boss Is
arranged the Multnomah man must
agree to throw him twice in one hour.
Several welterweights frtrn the East
are now In Portland, anxious for a
match with O'Connell, and upon his
return these may be arranged. One off
the grapplers is Gus Thomas, of Min
neapolis, Minn.
DAMATIO TO BE RETRIED
Bartender Who Assaults Conductor
Arrested on New Charge.
Contending that there was a miscar
riage of Justice when Richard P. Dama
tlo. bartender at Tony Arnaud's North
End resort, was acquitted by a Jury In
Municipal Court of a charge of disorderly
conduct. W. P. LUlis. special ftltlcer off
the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company, filed a new complaint yester
day, charging Damatio with assault and
battery upon H. Tinker, a St. Johns
streetcar conductor. The prisoner Was
released on ball of $50 and wll demand
a second trial by Jury.
The offense of which Damatio Is ac
cused was committed several weeks ago,
when he objected to the conductor not
stopping a "no stop" car to let him off.
He struck Tinker three blows In the face,
loosening hlseeth and incapacitating him
ffor work. Damatio admitted the as
sault at the' former trial, but set up a
defense that the conductor had first
laid a hand upon him. He was not sup
ported In this statement.
Turkey Bone Causes Death.
NEW YORK, Nov. 26. Gertrude
Goldstein, a 10-year-old Brooklyn girl.
Is dead in her home as the result of
swallowing a turkey bone with her
Thanksgiving dinner. The bone lodged
In her aesophagus and could not be ex
tricated. Her violent coughing merely
stirred the bone and its sharp end final
ly pierced the wall of the aesophagus,
causing intense pain. The girl's mother,
to allay her suffering, gave her some
tea to drink, but the beverage leaked
through the aperture In the gullet and
trickled down Into the lungs. The child
became unconscious almost at once and
died without having regained con
sciousness. London has a large factory tisvoled ex
clusively to making dolls' clothing.
AL KAUFMAN RETURNS
Nick Williams May Manage Portland
Northwest League Club--Basebnll
Requiem Sounds In South.
Unclng in Balance.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 2. (Special.)
The fight fans are sure that the game
has come back. They point to the in
terest which has been shown In tha
Nelson-Moran match as an indication
of the enthusiasm and are already fig
uring on next month's contest. Louts
Blot, after a hard throw down at the
hands of Ad Wolgast, has finally made
a match with Johnny Frayne and "One-
Round" Hogan as his principals.
It ought to be a bout that will draw
well. Frayne. although he slumped off
In form for a time, had several good
fights In New Orleans, where he drew
with Tommy Murphy and Owen Moran.
Hogan has never fought more than four
rounds but he has plenty of admirers
who think he Is .capable of better
things. He is bitrhg off a large chunk
In agreeing to meet Franey over the
lo-round route. However, it Is a case of
do or die with Hogan. He has been
barred from the four-round game be
cause he is considered R professional
and If ho wants to stay in that line of
work, must fight the long-8lstance
boys.
Frayne, with the experience lie has.
Is certain to give Hogan a good, tough
fight.
AI Kaufman Itclurns.
Al Kaufman, one of the hopes of the
white race, has returned to San Fran
cisco to spend the holidays, also to cele'
brate his 25th birthday. The big native
son has been absent since last July
While away he signed up for nine
bouts but only fought and won three of
them, the other six being called off.
Al has a tale of woe to tell. His last
disappointment happened last week In
New York, when he was scheduled to
meet Jim Stewart, hut the police in
terfered and called it off. If was given
out that Kaufman broke his hand and
was unable to . go on. but All bears-
eviden'o that lie is in good shape.
Kaufman brings word of a plan afoot
of a New Orleans promoter to have
Ross, Stewart. Barry, Lange and Kauf
man In an elimination match to settle
the dispute as to who is the -white
hamplon of the world. One pair of tne
four will get together shortly and
Kaufman says he is to go to New Or
leans in the latter part of January to
prove his worth.
After that bout. Kaufman has signed
up for ten weeks on a theatrical tour.
Then he plans to invade England and
trv conclusions with the British heavy
weights. Jimmy Brltt has been after
Al to cast his lot abroad and Kaufman
thinks It would be a good plan.
Williams May Lead Here.
That Nick Williams will be allowed to
go to PortlanJ to manage the Portland
Northwest League club If the McCredtes
really want him. Is the intimation made
by Danny Long this week.
"The McCredtes have entered into
communication with me," he said the
other day, "in reference to Nick Wil
liams. It looks as if it might be a good
chance for Williams. Nick lias always
given the San Francisco club good serv
ice and I would not stand in his way
If he w'ould be benefited. The deal has
not been closed and probably will not
be taken up until the adjourned meet
ing of the league tn January.
Baseball Is a deal Issue these day
in San Francisco and the magnates are
more than willing that it should be
given a rest. They have coins to 'the
belief that there Is altogether too much
baseball and too much baseball talk In
and around San Francisco. It is this
reason that caused Cal Ewlng to order
Recreation Park closed tighter than a
drum until next Spring.
Players) Attend Itaees.
Most of the ballplayers have scattered
and those who remain will spend the
Winter here. Not a few of the boys
like to dally with the racing game and
are seen frequently at the track.
The Oaks, or that portion of the club
that still remains In California, Is play
ing weekly games to pick up a little
money Their belated benefit last Sun
day morning at Freeman's FRrk did uot
bring them in very much money. How
ever. ,they are willing to take what is
effere'd.
In addition to the game played
against an all-star cast, there was a
Held flay In which Maggart captured
most of the honors, particularly in the
sprints. In which, as all the Coast
League fans are aware, he figures so
well.
What will be the future of the racing
game in California is a problem dis
cussed by men chiefly Interested. That
the Incoming Legislature next January
will take some action Is understood. It
Is generally believed that some meas
ure will be Introduced to do away with
racing as It is conducted at present.
Compromise Is Wanted.
Possibly, the reformers will be will
ing to accept a compromise that will
admit of limited racing, say 20 days to
each track, under the Paris mutuals
system of betting. Conservative racing
men ngree that such a compromise
would be extremely liberal as rar as
they are concerned and they would like
to see It adopted.
Tom Williams, however, is not the
type of man who accepts compromises,
and if he continues nls attitude of last
year he will go on fighting the reform
ers until the end or fine. In such case,
it Is well within the possibilities that
racing will be shut off entirely.
At present, the track is doing fairly
well, considering all things. There are
from 15 to 20 bookmakers on and the
ton a day apiece that they pay to the
racing association about makes up the
purses that are offered.
The spectators are charged Ji a day
and come out In surprisingly good num
bers. The horsemen can hardly be
said to be making money. The average
purse is $250 of which J200 goes to the
winning horse and the stakes do not
range better than $15. which makes you
smile when you consider the amounts of
some of the old-time stakes.
There is little or no gossip of any
probable action against the boxing
game. Antl-pugllistic bills have been In
troduced at every session of the-Legislature,
bill it is more than likely that
the reformers will find other subjects
to occupy their attention.
Victoria Trip Doubtful.
At present it does not look as if the
victorious University of California
rugby team will take the trip to Vic
toria to play there for the challenge
eun. Tha game last year in the North
Athletic Board of College Too Poor
to Join Association.
MT. ANGEL COLLEGE. Mt. Angel,
Or.. Nov. 26. (Special.) Mt. Angel
College will play independent basket
ball this season as decided on at a
meeting of the basketball team yester
day. A meeting had been called to
consider the advisability of associating
with the Willamette Valley Inter-collegiate
Basketball League, but it was
thought that, for this year at least,
the expenses would be more than the
Athletic Association could bear.
Prospective members of this season's
'varsity team have been practicing hard
for the past month, playing a scheduled
series of Int.ra-colleglate games every
Wednesday and Saturday, but from the
present outlook the chances are not as
bright as they were last year.
J. Melchoir. considered one of the
best guards in the state; Manion. cen
ter, and Burns, the clever and heady
forward, will be ouf of the game, and
their absence will be keenly felt.
Scholz, Van Homlson and Furney are

Notes of the Hunters
A.
W. BREED and A. F. Straubel,
Eastern capitalists, recently
moved to Oregon, have bought the old
Kunkle fram, near Warren. The place
comprises 640 acres, on which are six
duck lakes, three of which are fine
mallard ponds. They are now building
a four-room house, a watchman's cabin,
kennels and a duck yard. When com
pleted, this place will be the finest duck
preserve in that vicinity, for the new
owners intend to install a heating plant
at the clubhouse, and coils will be run
to the several shooting blinds.
... '
George J. Bills, one of the best shots
with the scattergun In this vicinity,
reports ducks, snipe and geese plenti
ful in the vicinity of his lake near
Burlington last week. Bills also reports
seeing a number of swan In that vi
cinity during the week.
...
Boss Peebler, a traveling auditor with
the O. T- & N- Co., reported thousands
of geese along the railway between
The Dalles snd Arlington. He reports
the raising of a flock near the' train
and some of the frightened birds flew
into the cab of the engine. Three were
captured.
...
Drs. Montgomery and Wheeler and
Ed and Ray King report splendid shoot
ing on their preserve on Sauvies Island
last week. In one day's shoot all of
them had br.gged the limit by 2 o'clock.
The King preserve is noted as one of
the best-kept game preserves along the
river.

Edmund C. Gaze, Edgar J. Paly and
Gus Stampfer report a fine day's sport
at the Broadmead farm recently. The
trio enjoyed the variation of hunting
ducks and pheasants, and report bag
ging 11 pheasants and .13 ducks.
...
J. E. Cullison and a party of friends
were once more successful at Cullison's

to hug the fireside and figure out wiint
might have been. :,s, well as to drja:.i

poor old "A. Spo.-i." alio his colleagues
will have to embrace nhist or seven-uj..
as the excitement of a game of piker
is barred. He may have to com, l.t
himself with discussion as to why JIc
Credle should not keep certain players
for next year, and berate the Port.an'i
manager for allowing Gregg. Krapp. Oi
Eon and Fisher to go to Cleveland.
The average fan doesn't seem to be
ahleto understand the drafting or sjll
Ing of players, and disposition of a s.a,
player is never approved by the patr-vt
who does mat understand the workings
of organized baseball.
Opinion Not Sound.
Many fans remember the sale of Mike
Mitchell. Larry McLean, Bill Esslck
and Jimmy McHale. of the Portland
champions of 1906, and some of them
have expressed the belief that In selling
Krapp, Gregg. Olson and Fisher. Mi
Credie has paved the way for another
tall-end club such as followed on the
heels of the 190S pennant. Tills is merely
lh. i-Uiii f l, : r .
..I.. , .c in ji-suui?fiiu inn w no al
ways has Ire to vent, or a kick to reg
ister at anyone who is successful.
It might be said that the Beavers
stand an excellent chance to repeat
success next season, providing McCreiila
obtains the players he has in view for
his Pacific Coast league Club. Ths
only possible ehanre for the Beavers
to be weakened next seaSon lies In the
possibility of McCredie not. replacing
Voan Gregg and Eugene Krapp with
men of the same ability. He already
has one man who Is touted as high as
Gregg before that mighty flingpr Joined
the Beavers. He Is Frank Bates Ar
cher, a left-handed pitcher who was
a sensation in the Three-Byo, League
last season.
Steen Is Deserving.
Then McCredie already has Bill Stee.l
lined up for next year. Steen is deserv
ing of as much credit for the Portland
victory as is either of the stars who
will enter faster company next Spring.
Steen pitched great ball last season aid
his record shows to as good advantage
as that of either of his rivals for tun
pitching honors of the championship
team.
Bill Rapps Is a cinch at first base on
the lflll team, and so is Tommy Slieehan
at third, but second base and shortstop
remain to be filled. Casey may be -it
second again, but he is contemplating
retiring from the game, and McCredie
has lines out for another man to fill
this gap.
In the outfield Artie Krucger and
Buddy Ryan are certainties. These play
ers have demonstrated their worth and
arc favorites with the rant? and file of
fandom. In the fireside and "smoke
house" dibcusslons, Ryan and Krue.ger
are particular favorites In tho prospec
tive Beaver club.
For the other outer garden position
Manager McCredie has secured two pun
by draft. Thoy are Irving i)iigi.. who
was with Portland in the Njr'.'.tvivst
ern League last season, and Roi'gers.
of the Waterhury, Conn., team. Both nie
good hitters and fast men on the bases.
They are said to be first-cla.-?- utility
men, and MuCredle has been informed
that Rodgers is an exceptionally ca
pable second base.man. Rodgers may
fall heir to Casey's shoes.
Slieelian May Be Captain.
In all probability Tommy Sheehan will
captain the Pacific Coast League Club.
He Is a clever baseball general and Is
well liked. McCredie has not yet an
nounced him as the field leader, but
he is known to have Shoel'.an undr
consideration.
Tommy Murray, gingery litlle catcher,
will be Portlands mainstay behind the
bat. Murray Is a far mjn; teliable
catcher than" Fisher. He never i-uiks;
that was the only failing of Fisher.
Fisher is the better batsman, however,
and it 'was his hitting ability wuicii at
tracted the attention of the bi league
scouts and resulted In his re?jll Ly the
Cic eland American League team.
Murray is practically the only sea
soned catcher McCredie has lined ip
for the coming race. Murray earned tho
regular berth by his great work last
season. The Cleveland club has lines
out for two catchers for McCredie. and
the Portland manager Is not worried.
He maintains that he will have a first-
class team In both leagues next year.
