TROUT REPORTED BIG m PLENTIFUL Anglers Receive Glad Tidings From Trask, Roaue and Nestucca Rivers. FINLEY PLANS PAMPHLET Railroads Will Bo Asked to Give Detailed Information, Through Station Agents, About Condi tion of Streams. Now that the high water has receded In most of the rivers and streams of the state, local and state anglers are enjoying the trout season. Many re ports are coming from the Trask, Rogue and Nestucca Rivers, saying that the fish are plentiful and run from seven to 21 Inches long. Many inquiries are coming to the local fishing headquarters as to where the best fishing grounds may be found, but by next year William L. Finley, State Game and Fish Warden, hopes to issue a weekly pamphlet with the de sired information. The little booklet will carry up-to-the-minute fishing notes of Interest to all sportsmen. At present the North Bank Railroad is putting out a pamphlet similar to the one proposed by Mr. Finley. The leaflet is Issued once a week and has notes from various station agents along the line telling where the best locations can be found. Other railroads will be asked to give . information about the best streams along their lines so as to co-operate with the plan of the game warden. 10,000 Angler Would Benefit. Mr. Finley estimates that the pro posed pamphlet will benefit more than 10,000 local and state fishermen and would no doubt cause more Interest In the sport. Mr. Finley will also issue a booklet dealing with the game con ditions of the state in which the sports men will be informed of the game con ditions and laws and restrictions at the various times of the year. C. J. Sutherland and Oscar Lund re turned from the Deschutes Monday with over 100 red sides caught last Sunday with a spoon. The largest measured 20 inches and the smallest eight. Warren Cornell found the fishing on the Molalla River to his liking and with only three hours fishing caught 30 rainbow and mountain trout. Many salmon catches were reported, the largest being from the Trask River country. J. C. Myers. Harry Van Lu ben and W. L. Kinser bringing back IV Jack salmon caught with a fly. The longest was 21 inches and took Myers an hour to land it. Several parties returned from the Tillamook territory with large catches. Bam B. Archer, wife and aon Worthlng ton, found the fishing fruitful with 17 two-pound cutthroats to their credit. C. A. Foster and wife. W. M. Umbden stock, wife and daughter were also in the party which made the Beaver Lake their headquarters. The lake is owned by several Portland sportsmen and each week finds the houses on the res ervation filled. The Beaver Lake adjoins Ocean Beach and deep sea fishing Is only a mile away from the property. Cod and sea trout are hooked on the little stream that runs to the lake from the ocean. After a great many trials and tribu lations, one of which resulted in the breaking of his pole, Reuel W. Ketch urn, Harry Mountain and Edward Ketchum, coming from the Washougal River, brought back 202 mountain trout after a two-day stay. Many measured 15 Inches and one was given out as being 2 inches in length. All the fish were caught on a single egg hook and within two miles up-stream. The same party with their wives will in all prob ability make the trip again this morn ing. The Bull Run River has come in for Its share of fishermen. Two of the largest parties, left the past week for that district. Some of the local fishers who have made the trip are: Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Bennett. F. A. Davis, B. V. Komp, E. H. Hobbs, L. C. Perry, George Royer, William Fordyce, George C. Luders, Carl C Laudy, Albert Viggers, J. F. Davles, Neal Maxbar, G. R. Hubner, W. K. Culver, T. C. Donell, C. B.

Many Portland men are contemplat ing making a fishing trip In the near future and W. F. Backus with Ar thur Bowman and Warren Cornell, will leave the first of the month for a 10 day outing on the Rogue River. The largest catch this season in that part of the state is reported by M. S. Blden and Marion Lance, two Medford an glers, whose efforts yielded them 17 steelheads. with a gross weight of 85 pounds. The catch was made with a Grizzly King and a hackle fly, a short distance above the Bybea bridge on the Rogue River. One of the best catches of trout made this season along the Deschutes neat Redmond was by a party composed oi Tim Lane, Herman Love, Ike Buckley, Joe Buckley, L. M. Butler, Roy Branton, Dick Campbell and Al Lucas, who are camping near Redmond. Underwood, Wash., July 26. (Spe cial.)

Al Lucas and party of seven had the best luck getting rainbow trout within an easy trip from Redmond. White Salmon, Wash., July 26. (Spe cial.) This district is receiving outing parties who are meeting with success In getting reasonably good catches en route to Trout Lake and the Glenwood district. KLAMATH FALLS FISHING GOOD California Angler Takes Three Fine Rainbow Trout. KLAMATH FALLS. Or., July 26. (Special.) The record fishing catch this season is held by J. E. Overholster, of Oroville, Cal., using a six-ounce rod. The largest rainbow trout - taken weighed 14 pounds, the next 11 and the third eight pounds. Larger fish have been taken this season, but the three taken together are the best. The record in this section Is still held by J. B. Llppincott, of Los Angeles, who took a rainbow trout weighing 23 pounds in 1906. This catch was made with a spoon. KRQHN'SPLAGEUNFILLED MULTNOMAH CLUB , FLOODED WITH APPLICATIONS. Nation to Be Scoured for Suitable Man Track Team to Be Sent to Victoria August 7. The announcement of the retirement of Robert Krohn from the physical de partment of the Multnomah Club has brought a flood of applications to the club. None of these will receive con sideration for the time being, as the committee, consisting of Charles Bar ton, Edgar Frank and E. D. Smith,-will make a Nation-wide search before ac cepting an applicant. Edgar Frank has written to James E. Sullivan, of New York, president of the American Amateur Association; Mat Halpin, chairman of the 'New York Athletic Club and manager of several Olympic teams; Everett Brown, of the Chicago. Club, and others known Na tionally in their athletic work. These men will be asked to put Multnomah in touch with a suitable man to follow in the work of Mr. Krohn. . Multnomah has decided to accept the Invitation of the Victoria carnival track meet August 7, but the team to make the trip is yet to be determined. Philbrook will throw the Javelin and the hammer for Multnomah, and he and Wolff will enter the discus and shot. Magone. the St. - Johns High School lad, will compete in the high Jump and pole vault. Hawkins and Bellah may not be back from an outing in time to attend. Classes in all departments of the club will start about September IS. The gymnasium and swimming departments will have a rather quiet time for the first two months, but the boxing, wrestling and gymnasium team work will be plentifully interspersed with practice games and house leagues. A meeting of the football men will be called within the next few weeks, when stock will be taken. i GUNS TO "WARN IT S HER.MEN Excuses Will Not Be in Order Under New Arrangements. ASTORIA. Or., July 26. (Special.) As a means of preventing any of the fishermen Inadvertently violating the Sunday closing law and also to give those who violate the law designedly no opportunity to plead that "their watches were wrong," large caliber guns will be fired at 6 o'clock every night from now until the close of the Ashing season on August 26,. both at Fort Stevens and Fort Columbia. Ar rangements to' this effect were made this morning by Deputy Fish Warden Larson with Colonel Straub, command ing officer at Fort Stevens. In order that the fishermen may set their watches and clocks, the guns are to be discharged at exactly 6 o'clock Western Union time, each night, but on Saturday and Sunday nights a much heavier charge will be used, so that the reports can be heard in every sec tion of the river. C63 JOIN ANGLERS' CLTJB Committee Appointed to Work for Dredging Mouth of Sandy. The membership of the Multnomah Anglers' Club was Increased by 263 names Saturday when their nominations were accepted at a meeting at the Com mercial Club. This makes the list a few over 726. The matter of having the mouth of Sandy River dredged to enable the fish to ascend the stream was discussed and a committee headed by W. F. Backus, was appointed. The destruction of the Ash in Upper Clackamas through the lowering of the flood gates of the Port land Railway, Light & Power Company was also ordered investigated and Homer Harrington appointed chair man of a committee which will look into it. Reports on the fish distribution were also read. The state has over 12,000,000 young Ash on hand which are being delivered to the streams at the rate of three cars a week. Answers to Queries. T. E.

' NO RACES PLANNED Harness Matinees Not to Be ' Staged Here This' Fall. LOCAL HORSES WIN ABROAD Embro, "Green". Pacer, Is Sensation , of Meets in British Columbia. Florodora Z, Salem ; Trotter, Sets Mark of 2:13. "With Portland horses making good at all early Summer meets this season. It Is a keen disappointment to many not to be able to look forward to the home-coming at the annual Fall meet of the North Pacific Association. But Portland will hold no harness matinees thia Fall. It cost the Portland men too much money in their efforts to educate the people into the harness game. There was not a meet staged in Portland in 1912 which anywhere near paid ex penses, despite the - interesting pro grammes which the Riverside Driving Club furnished. However, half a dozen Portland pac ers and trotters are scattered through out the Northwest and Canada, and, what Is more, nearly all of them are winning. - One of the best of the colony is Em bro, which left here a "green" pacer. This little horse has been the sensa tion of meets all through British Co lumbia. It recently won Its first race at Calgary. The filly is the property of. Anderson brothers, of this city. Sacramento, Cal., recently staged a matinee which the fans appreciated better than those held here. The meet was marked by the especially good time of the many "green" steeds which were brought out. - ' Florodora Z., a trotter. Is one of the developments of the year. She is owned by G. W. Belknapp, of Salem, Or., where she has been running andi winning the matinees of the Summer. She has already hung up a time of 2:13. Hal Norte showed wonderful form in the practice races which were run with J. C. B., owned by Buchanan and Mer rill, on the Forest Grove training track, several days of the past week. Hal B-, owned -by S. J. Vaughn, of Canby, Or., is now termed by author ities on horses as the "greatest pacing sire" in America. With such a string of descendants .as Hal Boy, Hal Norte and Haltamont, the claim does not seem out of place. Haltamont holds a rec ord of 2:05 for the mile. The other horses of the family are also shining in Western horse matters. College Gent, the fast little horse which last year sold for $4000 to Joe Carson, the racing man of Winnipeg, Man., is showing its worth by- taking every race it is entered in. This horse was born in and trained on the tracks of Eastern Oregon Amateur Athletics. After having cleaned up most of the fast amateur teams of the city, the Piedmont Maroons are now after out-of-town affairs. Manager Powell would like especially to hear from Salem and Astoria. Write Fred Powell; 129 Kil llngsworth avenue, - or phone Wood lawn 65. 7 Manager Richanbach, of the Harrl man Club baseball nine, has arranged a game with the Salem team to be played at Salem today.

Bob Finke, the ' 210-pound Lincoln High School guard of the 1918 football team, who was seriously burned at Brookfleld, Wash., last week, is now able to be around and within a- few days may be able to be out. The burns are not serious. .. - The Mount Hood No. 17 Maccabees will battle with the Albany Giants to day at the Valley towns.

Sporting Sparks OSCAR JONES, formerly . with the Seals and now - in ' the California League, Is hanging up a pitching rec ord which would make him a valuable addition to the Seals. He has won 16 games straight, which puts him hot on the trail of Rube Marquard, the title holder in that line. , St. John, the famous California seer and prognosticator, still sticks to his belief that the Beavers will cop the 1913 pennant. St. John is visiting In Central Oregon, but, in a postcard, says he will be a Portland visitor soon. St. John picked Portland in 1910 and 1911 and favored Venice and Oakland last year . The Big Leagues are after Jack Ryan, of the Los Angeles Club. Manager Mc Graw has wired for information con cerning the big fellow and the Wash ington Club has asked Berry for a price on him. However Berry declares he is not for sale. He considers aim worth 810,000. . Eddie Graney has announced a list of the world's greatest fighters and ring aides. Professional modesty forbids his choosing the greatest referee. His greatest heavyweights are Peter Jack son and James J. Corbett. His best lightweights are Jack McAullffe and Johnny Herget. He classes Bob Fitz simmons as the heaviest hitter of the game. . Cy Parkin, the former Oak slabster. Is at the Providence Hospital in Oak land, with typhoid fever. His sturdy constitution is expected to pull him through. . Speed boats come, and speed boats go, all come with a reputation of CO miles an hour, yet are unable to get the Chicago motorboat trophy, the val uable cup which goes to the first boat making over 50. The latest is the Baby Bo, a 20-footer, powered to 200. She has been able to show but 48.2 miles. F. J. Marshall, the chess champion of the United States, is at present in Los Angeles, where he 'is meeting all comers and defeating them at the same rata. . With Langford back In America, the stringency on the labor market will probably be somewhat relieved, as some of the "white hopes" will probably go back to their jobs. . Bakersfield.

' MISTAKE MADE, MANY SAY Walla AValla in Need of Funds to Finish Season Fans Watch Rader's Work With White Sox. Altermatt Tops Batters. BOISE. Idaho.. July 26. (Special.) The third umpire to take his release from the Western Trl-StaTe League since it opened its second season this year Is Connie Starkell. ex-Northwestern League pitcher, who made the un fortunate slip of getting in bad with some of the team managers and fans. A demand was made for his release and President Sweet handed him his time. The league lost a good Indicator-holder as a result. Starkell was a good of ficial, quiet and unassuming. Sporting writers over the circuit believe that a mistake was made in releasing him. They contend that umpires in the West ern Tri-State do not receive the protec tion from the league officials they are entitled to. Jimmie Richardson, Boise scorer for the league, and well-known as a Coast sporting writer some years ago, was appointed by President Sweet to suc ceed Starkell. Richardson has been styled the "wrecking crew," due to the fact he has always been relied on in the pinches. Richardson is popular with the players and fans. He is handling the Pendleton series this week and will probably remain with the league the remainder of the second half of the season. Walla Walla Needs Fandn. Walla Walla has issued an urgent call Tor funds to finance the Bears. It is estimated that $2000 will be needed to keep- the treasury supplied with funds and for this reason several benefit games were played this week. Manager Bade expects to realize on his players at the end of the present series. He has sold Bobby Davis to the Portland Colts to report a.t the end of the season, the consideration being 8500. . Bade wanted 8750 for this fast little intielder, but could not secure that amount, and closed for the 8500. Martini, Harmon and Leonard may also be sold by Dade. -Negotiations are now on for these players. Dan Rader, the inflelder-thlrd base man and shortstop of the Bucks of Pen dleton, who was sold to the Chicago White Sox. left this week to report to the major league club. Rader is an ex University of Oregon boy, and made decidedly good with the league. It is predicted that he will be found a val uable man for the Sox. Naughton, former second " baseman and shortstop with the Spuds, of La Grande, when that club was in the league, has been signed by Pendleton to play short, and is making good In the territory. Altermatt Lead Batters. The league batting averages - show "Baldy" ' Altermatt, of .Boise, leading the league. The averages were complied as including the first two series of the present schedule. Altermatt is hitting the ball at a .600 clip and although he has not been locating the pellet as strong during the last series he is still the premier sticker. He is the fast shortstop for the Irrigators. The lead- ing stickers as shown by the official averages issued are as follows: A.B. Hits, Pet. Altermatt. Boise . . 20 12 .OOo Davis.

Captain Pfaender, of the Portland Rowing Club, has announced the names of seven men as all but one of the Dele gation which will represent Portland at the Victoria special regatta August , 8 and . The four will be comDosed of Hansen, Bates, Wylde and Myers, the doubles of Havely and Newell, and the senior single will be Ed Gloss. The last man will b'e for utility purposes and- his selection w!l be withheld. for several days. Ed GIobs was the winner of many a race In his more youthful days, and was the Northwest champion more than once. For the past two years he has been out of racing, but has kept up his form by practicing with the boys al most daily. MIDDLES 111 TRAINING M'AIxLISTEU AND PETUOSIOEU WILL MEET AUGUST 8. Not Since Days of Spectacular Stan ley Ketchel Has There Been Any oneNWorth Mentioning. SAN FRANCISCO, July 26. (Spe cial.) Bob McAllister and Sailor Pet roekey are In training for their 20 round struggle o'n Friday night, Au gust 8, that will be the next pugilistic card of any importance in San Fran cisco. Coffroth as promoter of the match, is building not alone on this one match, but the possibility of stimulat ing interest in the ranks of the middle weights who haven't been doing any thing the last few months in the West. Stanley Ketchel, with his spectacular style, picked that division out of the rut and kept it to the front during his rather short career. Since his death, there have been a few middle weigh ts but they have not counted in the long round end of the game. McAllister is looked upon as the chap who possibly might, give the middle weights the necessary impetus. The Olympic boy was much in disfavor for a time because of his evident desire not to go into deep water, but he has largely redeemed himself by taking on Petroskey. The sailor is undoubtedly the best of the boys in and around San Franclsoo just at the present. He is a-rugged fellow, who counts more on that than he does on the keener points of boxing. The San Francisco man, less robust, but a fast boxer and endowed with a good head that ought to help him. must look to his speed and his worth as a boxer. It will be the crucial test for McAllister. If he can win from Petros key in the 20 rounds they are staged to go, he ought to have a bright future ahead of him, from a financial and fistic standpoint. The light weights and the middle weights easily can be the popular classifications from a standpoint of the fight goer, for they can combine speed with a punch. Both men have been seen in action and while their gymnasium work will be watched closely, the match Itself will tell the story of whether McAllis ter is to go ahead in his newly chosen profession. BARRIEAU AND O'BKIEJf DRAW Vancouver Youngster Puts Up Good Fight With Seasoned Veteran. VANCOUVER, B. C July 26. Young Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, who a few weeks ago lost a close lti-round bout to Freddie Welsh here, could do no better than draw with Frank Barrleau. a hard-hitting local lightweight, who recently went Into professional ranks. The milling was fast and O'Brien had the lead In the closing rounds, although Barrieau hit him hard and often in the earlier stages. Ernie Barrleau. a brother, beat Willie Darnley, another local lightweight, in ten rounds. Both of these two fighters were ex amateur lightweight champions of British Columbia. Frank Barrieau. who mixed it with O'Brien was formerly lightweight and also welterweight champion or Canada In the amateur ranks. CARIi MORRIS WINS KNOCKOUT Oklahoma Giant Puts Benedict to Sleep in Fifth Round. JOPLIN, Mo., July 26. Carl Morris, the Oklahoma .heavy weight, knocked out Al Benedict, of Brooklyn, N. Y., in the fifth round of a scheduled 15-round fight here last night. -Morris was not forced to exert him self. Benedict being at .his mercy at all times and ciincning wnenever possible.

M'GAREY SEES HOPE FOR RIVERS' CHANGE Los Angeles Sport Fans Would Like to Have Ritchie Meet -Mexican Again. WOLGAST IS MENTIONED Ex-Champion, However, Does Not Stand Strong With Present Light weight Titleholder and May Never Get His Opportunity. BY HARRT B. SMITH. SAN FRANCISCO. July 26. (Special.) Judging from the trend of affairs in the southland. Uncle Tom McCarey will be a bidder for the services of Willie Ritchie on one of the two September holiday dates when it comes time to open his offers and announce the win ner. Los Angeles gossip i3 to the ef fect that McCarey has convinced him self. If no one else, that Joe Rivers Is worthy of another chance, and that the fans of his community will stand back of him in this particular. He doubtless reasons, as well, that Rivers is no great card until he has had an opportunity to remove the stain that was caused by his defeat on the Fourth of July. To that end, it is doubtless true Rivers could be secured for a trifling amount, compared to what he might ordinarily demand. Financial considera tions count with McCarey, as they should with any promoter. Rivers un questionably feels that he must prove his gameness at least if he wants to continue in the game, and if the op portunity arises he ought to prove It against the self-same man who worsted him so thoroughly. Despite actual proof, it is generally believed that McCarey has much of a hand in the management of the Mexi can. If that is true there is all the more reason why McCarey would crave this match. "My - poor boy, my poor boy," Mc Carey is said to have wailed as he watched the moving pictures of the fight in Venice. Uncle Tom may have persuaded him self that Rivers ought to have another chance. If, as a promoter, he is as sured of support from the box office patrons, then he is in a position to make Ritchie some sort of a proposi tion that might send the San Francisco lightweight to Los Angeles. Even Wolgast, lost to sight as the ex-champion is, would rank higher in San Francisco as an opponent for Ritchie than would Rivers. There are some, doubtless because of Wolgast's work when Ritchie won on a foul, who still think he has the abil ity to take the measure of the San Franciscan. They seemingly fail to take into account the fact that Wol gast has been beaten by Tommy Mur phy, has lost his punch, slowed up in his speed and In every way Is inferior to the man he was In the days before his operation for appendicitis. Due to this feeling, he would draw fairly well, although not with thinking men. Ritchie, however, has no particular reason to feel friendly toward Wolgast and will hardly look upon him with favor as an opponent. AVolgast lost many a friend by reason of his be havior toward Ritchie on the Fourth, and the champion realizes that fact as well as the next one. In San Francisco it seems to be quite the prevailing idea that Ritchie and Harlem Tommy Murphy will make the, best possible card and that is the.frt-1 traction that Jimmy Coffroth is-' frank to say he wants. ' Ritchie seems to have' no personal wishes when it comes to selecting an opponent. He is concerned entirely with what the guarantee will be for the champion and Is quite willing to allow the promoter to name his opponent. And, since we have had champions who have insisted upon naming opponent as well as guarantee, the outlook isn't at all bad. It is more than likely that either San Francisco or Los Angeles will be the battleground. Ritchie, who dislikes hot weather, doesn't care to strike for the East until well into the Fall and he realizes further, that September is one of the big months on the Coast. He appears to be absolutely confident of his ability to win and knows that an other 20-round victory would enhance his value for 10-round matches either In the Middle West or in and around New York. Wolgast has given out in Los An geles that while he hasn't had any quarrel with Tom Jones, that he will dispense with a manager until such time as he has a big fight. The announcement is superfluous. Jones, as is generally understood, worked with Wolgast on a percentage basis. Naturally, with Wolgast at a standstill, the Income was stopped. Jones had to look elsewhere for a liv ing and being a hustler, has engaged to look after the welfare of other fighters. He couldn't pass all of his time with the former champion and the fact that he was away, doubtless occasioned the inquiries In the south as to whether there was still a business arrangement between the pair. As matters stand, Wolgast simply doesn't need a manager, unless it be to attend to his personal comfort. PACIFIC INDIAN SHOOT ENDS E. A. Bean, of Eugene, Is Re-elected President of Organization. RAYMOND, Wash., July 26. (Spe cial.) The Pacific Indian shoot closed last night with a business meeting at which election of officers for the ensu ing year was made. The new officers are: E. A. Bean, Eugene, re-elected president, or tyee sachem; D. W. Fleet, Montesano, first vice-president, or mar ket tyee; Dr. F. M. Day, ,Eugene, second vice-president, or klone tyee sachem, and F. C. Reihl, of Tacoma, secretary and treasurer, or herald custodian. The shoot this year has proven so successful that many of the prominent members urged the Raymond Rod and Gun Club members again to bid for the 1914 meeting, which they did and were successful in having this city chosen again as the annual meeting place foe next year. The visiting shooters declare the grounds of the Raymond Rod and Gun Club the best on the Pacific Coast. Some splendid scores were made In the week.
