There "was no game between Port land and Missions yesterday owing to rain but the afternoon was consider ably enlivened among the wise gnes by insistent rumors that Cave Bancroft would be with the Chicago Federals in 1915. Dave, It is stated on good authority, has received a substantial salary offer from Joe Tinker, and, while he has not signed yet, expects to do so this Fall. In fact, the deal is all cut and dried, according to reports, and Dave's non chalance In spurning the recent New York Giant $2400 offer after it was temporarily -rejected by Art Korea would lend color to the truth of the re ports. Bancroft received his first message from Joe Tinker when the Beavers were in Los Angeles recently and he exhibited It to several of his teammates. "Whether or not Dave has signed I cannot say," one of the Beavers re marked to me yesterday. "But, I think it Is a cinch he will do so this Rail and I expect Gus Fisher to sign a Fed eral League contract." Tinker Is playing short for his Chi cago Feds and Rollie Zeider, former Seal, is at third. However, Tinker may be planning to shift Zeider to second r first or perhaps he Intends using Dave in a substitute role at the outset. "I don't know anything about the matter," Walter McCredie said last night when asked for a statement. "However, I have heard that two or three of my clu,b have signed with the outlaws. If they can better themselves it's all well and good with me. "One sure thing Portland -Cannot pay major league salaries and any of these players who have Federal League of fers might as well understand that now as any time." This afternoon the Missions will bid farewell to Portland fans for the year and to commemorate the event a double-header will be dished up for the one price of admission. The initial gong will sound at 1:30 o'clock with Martlnonl the probable choice against Stroud. Higginbotham will pitch the other game for the Bea vers and probably Malarkey or Wil liams for Sacramento. The count so far in the series shows three out of four for the locals. From the aspect of things, "Iron Man" Joe McGinnity's debut into the Pacific Coast League will be permitted by rival managers despite the fact that it is contrary to the league rules. 1 have decided not te kick," said W. W. McCredie, upon his return from the South yesterday. "And I guess Henry Berry, of the Los Angeles team, will be the only man to buck it. He may not allow Hogan to use McGinnlty in the box against the Angels." McGinnity made a brilliant bow to the Coast League fans yesterday, los ing a great 1-0 game that went extra innings. Numberless fans are still arguing over a play which cropped up in the fifth inning of Friday's game, when Rodgers tried to steal second with Der rick on third base. Fisher at the bat and the score 1-1. "The hardest play on the diamond for a catcher," declared Manager McCredie last night. "In this Instance we had .Derrick on third base, and Rodgers, the league's leading base-stealer, on first, so it was a. good play to make. The odds were all la the runners' favor, because the catcher had first to see that Derrick a fast man was held close to third. Then, again, a left-hand batter was tip and two were out. "Rodgers failure to slide into second resulted in his being caught and that was why It looked bad. But, scientif ically, the play was all right. If a similar situation had presented itself in the eighth or the ninth inning, with one out, then it would not have been good baseball, because we would have been working for one run instead of two." i Johnny Lush, of the Beavers, is listed among the bunch Hap Hogan intends taking on his tour of the Hawaiian Islands this Winter. Others in the barn-storming corps will be Klepfer, Leard, Elliott, McDon nell, Rader, Kane and Bliss, M'GIXXITV LOSES FIRST GAME "Iron Man," Twirling for Venice, Walks Menges, Forcing In Run.

What probably wilLbe the largest score of a football game for the 1914 season was registered yesterday when Coach Earl's Washington High pro teges trampled all over the Estacada High 139 to 0. Lack of practice and knowledge of the game is attributed to the poor, showing of the visitors on East Twelfth and East Davis streets. The local coach used but 16 players.

CONTINUOUS BALL DUBIOUS If Coast League Puts Missions - In Portland, Beavers Will Get 15 Weeks of Baseball or Judge Will Oppose Proposition. Portland may have continuous Pa cific Coast League ball in 1915 with two teams anchored here, but the chances are decidedly slim. W. W. Mc Credie, president of the Portland team, returned from the San Francisco league meeting yesterday and this is the impression one would get from the local magnate. "I will not oppose the placing of the Sacramento club In Portland," said the Judge. "But, it is feasible to play only about 25 weeks of ball here, and cer tainly I will demand that the Portland club get Its usual allotment of 15 weeks of the schedule. "If they-want to place the Missions here on a 10 weeks' basis all well and good. That will mean that the extra five weeks will have tc be taken care of either at Sacramento or at Oak land." Over a m llion words were spilled during the league discussion of the situation, but definite action was left over for the regular meeting October 26. In the interim. It is rumored, Sac ramento business men will endeavor to raise a bonus to entice the wandering ball club back to the banks of the muddy Sacramento River. According to Judge McCredie. there was no talk of sending the Missions either to Seattle or Taccma in the North or to San Diego in the South. The Tacoma rumor was sent up from San Francisco over the wires, leading local fans to believe that Joe Miller must nave come to life again. XATIOXAL- LEAGUE. New York 4-2, Pittstfurg C-4. NEW YORK, Sept. 26. New York and Pittsburg divided their double header today. Pittsburg lost the first game, 4 to 2. for their 12th straight defeat, but turned the tables In the second game, when they won by the same score. Fletcher's hitting won the first game for New York. He drove In three runs, and scored the fourth him self. A home run by Wagner with a man on base enabled the Pirates to tie the score on Mathewson in the second game and they won by timely hitting. McGraw, Donlin and Costello were ordered out of the second game by Umpire Kigler. McLean split a finger in the second game and was forced to retire. The scores: First game R. H. E.

Hard hitting enabled the home team to de feat Cincinnati twice today, the scores being 10 to and 7 to 4. After Cin cinnati got a good lead In the opening contest, Philadelphia hammered Ames' delivery hard in the eighth and ninth innings and finally drove him oft the rubber. Schneider took Ames' place and Burns' double and Dooin's single sent in the run needed to win. In the second contest Cravath and Magee each knocked a home run with two bases occupied and the hits were enough to land the victory. During batting practice Pitcher Elnser Jacobs, of Philadelphia, probably had his right arm broken by a liner off Magee's bat. The scores: First game R. H. E.

The run of vic tories came to an end in the second contest when Perritt let Brooklyn down with three hits and they were shut out, 3 to 0. Doak received poor support in the first game, four errors and two hits In the sixth accounting for five runs. The feature of the second game was an unassisted putout of a batter at first base by Catcher Otto Miller. Dolan hit the ball along the foul line.

HONORS HARSTAD Schneider, Who Jumped to Big League in Mid-Season, First in Low-Run Record. REUTHER IS BEST 'BEANER' Malls, Eccentric Seattle Youth, Is Hit Little but Ranks Near Top in Wildness "Slim" Smith, on Contrary, Steady, Hit Hard. To Harstad, the big blonde pitcher of Vancouver, belongs the premier pitching honors of the 1914 season among the twirlers who stood by the league to the finish. , On the new table of grading a pitcher's effectiveness In proportion to Xhe runs scored off his delivery In each nine-inning game, Pete Schneider, who Jumped to the big league in midseason, rates over Harstad, but in every other particular, Harstad looks better than Schneider. This new column, offered for the first time in the final Northwest pitch ing rating, should not be confused with the method of ' grading pitchers in vogue In the American League. There pitchers are rated in proportion to the average of runs "earned" off their delivery, which would exclude runs scored on fielding errors or after a chance had been given to retire the side. The Northwestern League box scores do not carry such records daily and they are unavailable. In the table herewith, pitchers are charged with all the runs made off them, not merely the runs for which they should be held responsible. Young Reuther leads in the ancient and honorable art of "beaning." Ho wounded 25 batsmen In approximately 21 full games. Izzy Kaufman is the "iron man," supplanting the 1913 title holder, J. J. McGinnity. Wesier Deli made the most wild pitches. Young Mails, the eccentric Seattle kid pitcher, shows up promisingly. Hits were mighty scarce against his de livery He led all Northwest pitchers in this respect although he appears to be second wildest in the league. Usually one finds the same names near the top of the low-hit and the extreme wildness column. It is hard to hit when the ball doesn't come over. Cor respondingly, "Sad Slim" Smith, who was .stingiest in bases on balls, was batted at a .298 clip.
