SEATTLE, -Wash., May 30. (Spe
cial.) Pete Schneider continues to hold
the center of the stage as the prize
package pitcher or the Northwestern
League. As Pete continues on his tri
umphal way both Walter McCredie, of
the Portland team, and Bob Brown, of
the Vancouver club, heave a sigh of re
gret. Walt thought he had Pete last
Spring only to discover that he had
been a member of the Seattle team for
iw years. Bob Brown admits that he
detected signs of greatness in Pete
when he was not cutting much.a swath
in Seattle, and came' close to' getting
mm away irom President Dugdale.
At least four major league clubs
would be willing to take Schneider at
this moment, but there is no chance of
a deal going through. It is equally
certain that Seattle has no chance of
Holding the big fellow with the siz
zling speed beyond the end of this sea
son, but there will be some lively bid
ding before the prize drawing takes
piace.
It is not surprising that Schneider's
wors nas attracted attention beyond
the confines of the Pacific Northwest.
He has been slow in arrivine. but when
lie did put in his appearance he landed
with both feet. He has taken Dart in
14 games this season, 11 ot which are
credited to him as victories, two
cnarged as defeats and one as a "fin
Ish, or relief pitcher. On May 26 he
pitched the last inning of a game cred
ited to Ed Kelly and allowed neither
nit nor run.
Record Told in Figures.
weaving out the game in which he
acted as relief pitcher, wherein one
run was scored against Kelly and none
against Schneider; 29 runs have been
scored off Schneider in 1 games, or
an average of 1 7-13 runs per game.
He won eight consecutive battles, half
of which were shutouts. The largest
numoer or runs made against him be
fore he met defeat was three.
Following is his record, including
jiiursaaya game against Portland:

In at the beginning of the ninth in
ning. Schneider Powerful Fellow.
Schneider's success has not been due
to more speed than he has had in pre
vious seasons. He is a big fellow,
powerful and always could burn 'em
through. This year Schneider has
profited by past experiences. Along
with his speed he has "stuff on the
ball. Just enough to disconcert the bat
ter, who is never entirely at ease with
the bullets coming his way.
No one would imagine to look at
Schneider that he Is fast on his feet,
but. getting down to the facts in the
case, he can outrun any other man on
the Seattle club, and Martin Killilay
is something of a speed artist himself.
A good many of Schneider's hits this
year have been made by "beating out"
bunts.
Schneider has been slow to develop,
but he is retentive. If he lands in the
right hands when he goes to the big
show he will make a record for him
self. Colo "SKm" Stronser.
The Portland Colts struck President
Dugdale at the beginning of the week
as being stronger than when they ap
peared here the first week of the sea
son. Their pitchers, however, have not
bee n able to hold down the Giants
and the infield work in spots has been
Irregular.
Bobby Coltrin is playing a wonderful
game at short, and there is no getting
around the fact that the only thing
which keeps him out of the big league
is his hitting. In Seattle, however, lie
usually clouts like a big leaguer.
Tlio Colts put forth two recruits
from the Coast League, a catcher
named Haworth and a pitcher named
Salveson. No one in the league has a
better throwing arm than this young
fellow. Salveson got a warm recep
tion, and to make matters worse,
shoved a run over on a balk that could
not even be disputed. He stuck to his
work and in the last four Innings
pitched good ball.

The Harrlman baseball team of Port

a score of 7 to 5. The game was
characterized by many eirors.

Men Working Hard.
BY CHRISTY MATHEWSOX
The Giant's Star Pitcher.
NEW YORK. May 30. fSpectal.) It
is my honest opinion that the Giants
will break a baseball record this year
by winning their fourth successive
championship, something that has
never been done in modern baseball.
was skeptical about this before the
club left for the West, but after the
progress made on our present trip,
feel confident we will come through.
"How do you feel about Pittsburgh?"
a friend of mine asked me the night
the team left New York to open our
series with the Pirates.
"None too sure," I replied. "It's
cinch that we've got to hustle if we
are going to land again. It looks very
doubtful now.
This was the general opinion among
the New York players. The team had
been going badly, hitting poorly and
fielding raggedly, while the pitching
had not been consistent. McGraw at
trlbuted it to overconfidence and kept
rousting the players until he piloted
a crowd of "crabs" into town to meet
Fred Clarke's team. That was the
state of mind he wanted his players In.
Pirates Look Bad.
We made the Pirates look bad, and
i dont see how they had been tear'
ing through the other teams of the
West early in the season, for Cm
cinnati played a lot better ball. Most
clubs, however, are more or less
streak-, and it is the one that shows
the fewest streaks that wins the
greatest number of championships. We
may have caught the Pirates in
slump, while the Giants were going as
well in Pittsburgh as the team had
at any time in the last three years.
Fletcher played wonderful bail in the
held, while the whole crowd was tear
ing the cover off the ball at bat.
I wish that we could run into the
Athletics some time when the club
is traveling as it was in that Pitts
burgh series.
Clarke's pitching staff was supposed
to be the best in the league, but we
hit the Pittsburgh pitchers harder than
we had any other set so far this sea
son. Herzog s twirlers looked more
formidable to us. - That Pirate crowd
of pitchers will never do much to the
Giants this Summer no matter how
strong they may look against the rest
of the field.
Western Clnbn Seem Weak,
The other clubs in the West do not
look to be of first-class caliber. In
fact, the Western division of the Na
tional League is weaker this year than
it has been for several seasons. For
merly, Pittsburgh and Chicago were
always strong. Now the clubs are
entirely shattered, and O'Day Is having
all . kinds of trouble with the team.
The fans are sore, the players are dis
satisfied, and the owners are worried.
These are the reasons the club has
not shown better baseball, for the
playing strength is there. The pitchers
and catchers are first-class, and there
In a lot of hitting power in the lineup.
The club lacks harmony, and it is a
grand machine going to pieces through
conditions working against it.
The Chicago club is a fine example
of how quickly a wonderful machine
can go to pieces once it begins to
fall apart. Overconflclence among the
players in 1909 robbed Chance of the
record that McGraw hopes to hang
up this year, four championships in
succession.
The Athletics had their chance to
get Into the four straight class if
they had won in 1912, but they had
been reading In the newspapers all
Winter about what a wonderful ball
club they were, so the players did not
huatle and the team finished third.
They were just as strong in 1912 as
they were last season, to my mind, or
pernaps a trifle stronger. The Cubs

parts.
Minor Leagues Use Yonnsstera.
Any number of Portland youngsters
are holding down berths in minor
leagues. Homer Haworth, who tried
out - with the Portland Beavers this
Spring and then went to the Colts,
played with several local semi-pro
teams, while young Perkins, one of
Haworth's rivals for his berth, started
out with the Columbia University.
Ade Sleberts, who turned down an of
fer from McCredie for an education at
Oregon Agricultural College, played
with several prominent teams around
Portland as well as the Christian

went to Corvallis. Al Bloom, former

angling with several teams in Montana
for a berth.
Bill trleason, Jess Garrett's second

him.

"Shorty" Winterbotham, now with

Portland Mkroons- several season back
when Porter Yett used to play third

mainstays in the box for the Baker
team of the Western-Tri, comes from
Manager Forte's Lents Giants, and his
teammate, Peterson, played with the
Lincoln High before joining the hard

formerly a catcher but usually plays
the torrid corner now.

released for some unknown reason.
Wolfer, Jefferson High's present short
