Tacorna, St- lecting Spokane . and Traaaf erring Oakland to. Be - SettledFinancea of League Will Be Investigated. '; . The annual meeting of the directors of the Paellle -league- will meet in tnis city - next Thursday.. Representatives from Los Angeles. San Francisco. Oak lnsiatiiji Ticmi and Portland will be present and matters of the highest Importance will come up lor oiacuaaion at the gathering the magnataa. The chief ouestion to be settled wilt be whether 'or not the directors will vote for another term of three years for ths Coft league according to tne present arransetnent , Tha agreement of three yeara ase will soon expire. It la quite certain that the old agreement will be renewed, but there may be several changes regarding what -cities shall be represented. It Is well known through out the circuit that Taooma Is not a first nor a second rate nan town, ana that even with a pennant winning team the fans do not support the club suffi ciently to warrant a high -grade team being kept there. Spokane Is knocking for admission and has good credentials; fookana has a splendid, reputallon as a first-class" ball town, and : should the Tigers be transferred there It Is quit likely that . visiting teams would re ceive much more than they now make by playing at Taooma. . '. , . - xigwxs arsony upyvnea . Of course the Tacoma backers . thor oughly believe In their motto of "Watch Tacoma Grow." and raise all sorts of noise about their team, yet forgetting that it requires money to conduct a ball club. Spokane offers ths.' assurance that baseball will pay In eastern Wash ington - snd' oh .this ground - hopes for recognition ' from ' ' the Coast league. There Is sortie talk about dropping Oak land from, the circuit as the team that represents that cityla generally-playing In San ' Francisco tn order to insure continuous baseball in California me- tropolis. A good scheme; and one -that would be of vast service In completing a - better schedule then the present league haa ever set forth would be to transfer the Oakland team to Spokane. This would be an eaay way out of the difficulty and coma, and such an arrangement would mean additional attendance at Taooma. Portland la la ths position on account of the perfect condition of her affairs to have a strong voice at the meeting, and it may be that local Influence will prevail to a great extent . i-' Matt ef Sfeoea. . ..; Another matter ef supreme Interest that will come up for discussion and for Investigation will be the financial con dition of the league. Teddy Goodman of San Francisco has bean treasurer of the league, but has ' never Issued . f inaacial statement leaving the finance in the hands of the president - Each club In the league waa supposed to put up-tl.lOt as a guarantee that It would carry out the three years' agree ment Now It has developed that the only clubs that put up thia money are rortiana. Mettle ana Uo Angeles. Oak land. Ban Francisco and Taooma did not put up their forfeita This 14.10 Is bow supposed to be In President Bert's Pos session, but that official has made no statement regsrdlng It. Otber money paid Bert Such as Nadean's tlOt paid by Portland to Bert for the national commission, and.yBlankenahip's, Frisk's snd Buohanan's purchase ( money, paid to Bert for distribution, will alao be publicly accounted for at the meeting. Henry Harris and his colleagues In San Francisco were counting on Bert's interest la Recreation park In San Francisco to make good these amounts, out recently uncle Henry waa - very mucn cnagrincd to learn that Bert had sold. Ms Interest In the ball . park som time sgf. Ths outcome of this will be Interna ting. . Henry Harris and Teddy Ooodman will be here from Ban Francisco. - It is not likely that i Jim Morley will come as he Is not overly fond f ths San Francisco contingent.- Cal Ewlng. wllk.be. here for Oakland.

Record for Running ' High Jump WiU Not Stand Kerri gan Sas Sullivan Gave Permission. These are Interesting times for th followers of amateur athletics' on tha Pacific coast especially in Portland, and from present indlcatlona there will be some stir before the case In dispute la adjusted. . While the principals in tha affair are extremely reticent regarding tha trouble, enough has been ascertained to venture the opinion that at leaat one record made at the Lewi and Clark championship games will not stsnd the light of investigation that will ahortly be turned on It by the officers of .ths American Athletio union. - - The. trouble centers around Herbert Kerrigan, who Is the msnager of sports. at ths I-ewls and Clark exposition. Ker rigan Is supposed to be sn amateur and as an amateur was appointed by the Multnomah Amateur Athletio club to be Its representative at the fair sports, as the exposition f flclala designated the club to -direct the sports. - in tnis ca pacity Kerrigan was paid a salary by ths Lewis and Clark corporation for looking after the sports. .When the competitions came along ' It waa not thought that Kerrigan would enter any of the events,- on account of hla having received money for. conducting these sports. ; 1 - i . ' . August f ths Lewis and Clark open championship was held at th ball park. In one of the events ths running high Jump Kerrigan was a contestant and won . the Jump, defeating Hall of the Olympic club of San Francisco. Kerri gan jumped feet 11 H Inohes, whll Hall's mark was an Inch lower.- - - - After the meeting several of ' the Olymplo club ; representatives stated that they did not approve of Kerrigan competing, because - he had accepted money -for handling the sports, ' and added that they intended placing, ail cf ths facts before President McCabe and Secretary Sullivan of the A. A. U. Whether or not the California athletes have laid ths matter before the official Is not known, but Coast Representatlv Hauser declared hla intention ot doing so. ,' -.---.' . i.-;- , i ...i. , . .... ... - The matter will have to come before the A. A. U. offlolals for settlement snd according to those- who are well versed In amateur athletics, the mark made by Kerrigan In the running high Jump will be struck from ths recordst . Thia pro cedure, which will make a professional of Kerrigan, will bar him from ever again competing under . Multnomah's colors and ths local club will lose the services of An active young man. The football team will also miaa Kerrigan, aa hla work on the gridiron has been of the highest grade. Only those who re call with what vigor and daring he played for Multnomah on the laat two tripe to California and slso on ths local field know what a valuable man Mult nomah will lose. Aa to what will come' regarding Frank Lionergsn's connection with the hand ling of sports, for which he. received re-H muneratlon, when the footoall season cornea Is yet a matter of conjecture. The A. A. t. is extremely strict regarding athletes accepting money and the out come will be of great interest ta th amateurs of th Psctflc coast. When Kerrigan was asked concerning his status, he ssld: "Before entering Into ths competition I ssked Secretary Sullivan If It would be all right In th face of my receiving salary -from-the .exposition authorities for- conducting the sports,- and he told me that I could go ahead end compete. as h could fix It all right with Presi dent McCabe.
