Portland wlU not present-Mitchell, Ks elck, McLean, Smith, Sweeney or Lis ter. .No doubt the tatter's place will be acceptably filled by Newman, whom McCredle- secured 'from tha Houaton club of the South Tease league.

Pitchers 'Are trans;..?' "'' Portland's batteries look strong, and If Donahue reports, as bs undoubtedly will. Portland's bsckstopplng will . be ably looked after, as Matthsws Is an experienced, steady catcher, who Cap tained tha ' pennant-winning Blrmlng ham club of ths Southern league last year, and he should get good work out of the Portland pitchers, even should Donahue make ths ml a take of placing his future in tha bands of a ooe-day-a-. .week league."

Blgbie, who is slated to play first, comes highly rec ommended as a first baseman, and his work with the bat In tha New England lesgua waa. creditable. Bowcock of ths Fall River team, who' is -billed, to atop bass , hits atund' sec ond, haa- shown class in hla minor league engagements, , and has always been' a consistent hitter. Willie Dover aux, the young man with ths sunburnt locks and without whom an Oakland club :. would ''not. be complete. 4 will, ' no doubt, eat top base, hits around third and regale the grandstand and bleacher patrons with a netr Hne of Jargon.- Sir William will feel much' at horns with his, old side- partner. Truck Egan, playing-alongside him at short. , '.-7 ;' And 014 Track ga.'r.ii' " ' Egaa should prove a tower of strength to hla team as he replaces a vary light hitter; . Oakland looms up -formidably in ths pitcher's box. with Reldy, Ran dolph, Wright and Iberg to depend upon with ths , possibility of developing an-, other consistent performer from ths remainder of the bunch. Van Haltren will sorely miss Kruger's all around work, but ths team Is so much strongsr in ths pitching department and haa been braced In the infield to such an extant that the team looks to bs a formidable opponent throughout ths race If team work Is not lost sight of. This team has ths earns pair of baokatopa in Blisa and Hackett that worked so consistent-' ly last season; and Blisa should become mors value oie mis aeaaon. ; , I Tas Prlaky Seals. - The San Francisco club will present a 'somewhat chsnged appearance this season..... Street, Esole -and -Moore will do the baekstopplng. Street Is ths best backstop In the minor league ranks to day, and a better catcher than many- ta ths majors. Hs Is anxious to go back to tha majors In 1901. and It can ea- sonaoiy .' ds . expected that this hard working, peppery player-will be of In valuable - assistance to ' ths team and the pitching ataff. Eaola needs only experience and op portunity to develop to show claaa. and his trusty stick will hel win ..many games the coming season. Moore has shown that he Is no novice behind the bat and that - hs slso knows how to handls the stick. . - -Nick Williams should bs more valu able at first thla season, after a year's experience. - Mohler can always be counted on to take cars of an acre of ground around second. -while Irwin, is playing ths asms steady, sura gams at third that has earned him a national reputation. . At short William Morlarlty. who was secursd from the Topeka chtb. snows mat ns is a around oovorer and that hs knows what to do at critical stages. Last year Mortality had mors chanoea per gams than any shortstop m any league in the country, and his ability aa a base rnnner and run getter ta tinqnesttoned. Hildebrand. Spencer and Bhaughnessy or Goldahach ahnnM make aa outfield - that In aU-around work will compare favorably with that of any other team. . i , , - ereral Star Twirl.'-' The local Pttchina- staff la ,rnimul of Jones. Henley. Willi. 1 Wh..i.. Quick, Joy Hoag. Clafln, Ashley, Htckey nd Herrod, and -five or six good boa tnea should be secured from among the number. , The many changes in the different teams, ths - riddling of last season's pennant winners, ths- withdrawal of Fresno and Seattle, present so many problems to the admirers of the re. speetlve clubs that it (sadmpoaslbla to! b iru una on we merits of the respective clubs. .. . Strateglo play of a high order, com monly known as teamwork, the ability to go the distance, coupled with good luck in valuable playera not being In jured for any length of "time, will- be found in the winner of tha race that is now on. and all indications point to a high-class article of ball and a hard, bruising campaign. . . - ' Directors Hold Session.
