II V wmmtiM km i'lT'V-'' ' V Alt' tVH : (fr QCB ?07E SEATTLE AND TACOMA BADLY WANTED By Will J. Slattery, Bui Francisco, Aug. J. A the a On of 10I draws near day by day, the baseball mag-nates of California are . mora certain that we will have an eight , dub league next season and that Be attle and Tacoma will be added to the six cities which are now ready to out line their next season's campaign. The theories of the California powers may be entirely wrong and the air cas tles which they are building so rapidly may possibly be demolished with equal . rapidity, but at the same time, big; do I nets, are looked for and a merry war is sure to be waged in the coming: fall. " J. Cal Ewlng, president of the league and one of the chief advocates for the eight-club circuit Is srolnsr to make an awful fight to get back the Seattle ter ritory. All season. Ewlng has been scheming and planning ways and means by which he may outwit the crafty Dugdnle of Seattle fame and the other day, Bwlng announced that he had an ace In the hole that would win the big cot for him. According to Ewlng. he Is In receipt tt a lengthy communication- from the National Baseball commission lnrorm ,lng him that if ha can show the evl dence which he claims to have In his possession that the Seattle people acted in baa faith snortiy arter tne disaster, I Seattle will be turned over to the Pa- idflc Coast league and the big victory won right there. ' When the National commission meets 'In October a lively old flrht Is sure to 7 ensue. Swing will be right on the Job with his evidence and he will be backed by the other magnates of the league. XJugdale, with his followers will also be there and the high tribunal of base ball will have its hands full straighten ing out the tangle when the cases are presented. Nobody seems to know Just what Ew Ing has on tho Seattle men, but he says that he has the gooJs and . strong enough to win his case for him. In the past Ewlng has always proved himself a good fighter and a man of his word. He has gone on record so Strongly with the fans here that un less he makes good, he will be put on the pan for fair. Once Seattle is turned over to the Pacific Coast league, Tacoma will alwo . hop right in. When Ewlng was In the northwest a couple of months ago. the Tacoma baseball men came right to htm and announced off the reels that they wanted to crush Into fast company pro vided that the Seattle deal could be fixed up to the satisfaction of Bwing. At that time, the league's president promised the Tacoma people that ir all went well in Seattle they certainly could count their city In on the elght- ciud circuit. Since the Southern California Ath letic association was awarded the fran chise for the team near Ixis Angeles, verybody has been wondering what city it is to be. fiut so. far Berry, Mayor Harper. Jim Jeffries and the other pow ers behind the new throne have been keeping their own counsel and the pub lic is no wiser now than it was when the deal was put through. Most of the wise ones are ready to go on record and ay that Yen'ce will be the city, but now this does not look so certain for the reason that Venice is a very straight laced place and will not stand for Sunday baseball. It would be out of the question for any magnate to hope to make a ball nine go In California provided the auth orities would not give them a free rein for games on the Sabbath. But the Venice people have a law of their own and they claim thev are going to mske it stick, though the men behind tli new club have been moving heaven and earth for the last few days in an en deavor to lift the ban. So frtr they have accomplished practically nothing. If Venice falls by the wayside. It would not be at all surprising If San Pedro, the IOs Angeles waterfront rltv would cop out the big plum. Here is one town where there Is plenty of mon er and where, the people have the ral eld sporting blood coursing through their veins. Ever since It was an nounced that the league would take In another southern rltv, the fans of San Pedro have been plugging to e"t a rep resentation in the lineup. Thev are willing to give any kind of a guarantee, rect a swell grandstand and bleechers and equip the ball park so that It will be second to none of them. As San Pedro is but a short rlrle from Tx An- freles, the new magnates ure llkelv to ook with a deal of favor on the town 6! nee the league officials deMed to take In another southern California city a wave of prosperity has struck the orange belt.

The class which the Los Angeleg tea-n has shown lately will likely t, cost.'y for Berry after the rresent se.Son f r the chances are that tie will lose a large number of his men by draft or ale before manv months h.r r. Already Brry has standing offers to 11 Outfielders Kills and Oakes.

For the last month the fallen Idol has been living the simple life there in the hope that ho will come back with enough vitality to withstand the hurricane rushes of the Durable I sine. Joe weighs more than loO pounds now, nearly 20 pounds more than he has tinned the scales at for the last ten years. If he does noma back, he will be the marvel of 'he ring and will agiln oocupy the exalted posltlop which Nelson usurped when he bowled the old boy over. There Is at least one man In the fight ing game today who is capable of 00m lng out of the pugilistic burying ground and that man is Cute Eddie Hanlon. Last Saturday night ha set the local sporting colony on fire when he waded Into the hard-hitting Johnny Murphy at the little Colma pavilion and fought him for ten rounds to a standstill. Now Hanlon Is out with cliallenges to meet any of them. After the re markable showing he made he believes that he will figure as a headllner once more, and he proposes to take Several more chances. At the present time Hanlon is as good as matched with Murphy again for the middle of the present month, and provlned he can re peat In this contest, which will be a zv-rouna mixup, lie will nave a license to play any or them. Now that he has landed the Gam Nelson match for Admission dav. It is very likely that Jim Coffroth will call off the Moran-Attell featherweight bout which he had billed for Labor day, iuat two days In advance of liU lightweight attraction. It Is a moral cinch that each match will hurt the other, perhaps to a damaging decree. Though both of them have an attractive look and arj cards of unusual class, Coffroth would rather take a chance with Gans and Nelson, for the reason that- these two have always been the best box office men In the business, with the exception of the only Jeffries, who drew more money than any other boxer who ever lived. Moran is already on his way to this city from New York, where he landed from dear old London n fow days ago. He got wind of what was about to be pulled off, and he hopes to get himself a match hv pleading with Coffroth or by somen other means. In the meantime Moran is hurling challenges at Nelson The little Britisher Is sure that the Battling Iiane is one man whom he can beat, though strangely enough he has not the moral confidence to say that he Is capable of taklnir the measure of Gans. With the arrival of Moran tn to-h Abe Attel! is also heating It hero. It begins to look as though every pug of nuie in uus country anil many from England will be on the Job at about the lime tne lians-Neleon fight Is about to be pulled off. The promoters sure snould be able to pick out a good look ing card from the assembled multltudo of mltt-wielders. Section of Grandstand at Yesterday's Ball Game. GOSSIP of mi en?

The Woodburn "Blue Birds" won the pennant with hands down this season The official percentage given them Is .840, over 00 per cent ahead of their nearest competitors. The "Uluo Bird" team occupied the same piano as the Kelso "Tigers last season, all players being on a salary basis, giving them an advantage over the teams made up of players who played for the sport alone. The team was beaten twice tills sea son by St. Johns, once by the West Sld ers and once by Salem. It has had sev eral narrow escapes from defeat, how ever. East Side, Oregon City, Vancouver and Salem all making the champions go extra innings to win. and then by only one more score. Bowen, the winning twlrler for Wood burn, lias a great record this season of 12 games won and one lost. His twirl ing, however, has not been of the great est, several other pitchers In the league having better records. But he has had a great hi'Mng and fielding team behind him and this has won over half of his games. uled playing season, and will wait until next season. Fandom Is fickle and the patronaga withdrawn this season may lie tendered next. The league can ex ist without pluylng many games, as it Is under no expense. The league Itself has really made more money this season thsn Inst. It Is free from debt, and will be able to declare a dividend to the stockholders when tho season closes.

BRINGS "HEE HA W" crul run of the played by th f the game: I' Mills has been of better standard than last season and the fans who have been loal to the league have witnessed Jus us classv ball as they would In any minor league. Next season It is the plan of the league magnates to equalize if possible the strength of the team and cut tiie number of teams to four, or not more than six. The players will all be put 011 the same basis such a one as will Insure them taking more In terest In the success of the league new board of directors will be elected Several of the old board have already signtnea vthelr willingness to quit Harry K. Smith, one of the originators of tho Trl-Clly league, and Its secre tary for two years, has announced de cisively that this is his last seaRon of baseball. His resignation will bo In the hands of the bonrd at Its next reg ula r meeting. Mr. Smith has been e faithful laborer lor the success of the league nnd his enthusiasm has been a factor In tho organization. He steps down from an active service on account of business reasons and because he ac tually has grown tired of the harness. Smith has been an active worker in baseball as a player, manager and or ganizer elnce 18S4. Marshall's work In tho box for Wood burn was onlj' of mediocre order, but hla hitting has been a feature. Asher Houston, who has graduated Into the Pacific Coast leaguo, batted .250 wlille a member of the Trl-Clty league and fielded .810, showing conclu sively that a player must be a dandy to even hold his own In the minor organization. The East Ride team, which will go to Chehalls in September for two or threft. games, will be greatly strengthened by tho presence of four or five of the best players out or ottier league teams. Manager Smith has the pick of the en tire, league and he will talta no chance by tailing up a weak team.

Vancouver has had 21 men in 28 games, hit by pitchers 26 times, 88 sac rifice hits and 102 stolen bases. Salem .has had 21 men In 23 games, 14 times hit, 29 sacrifices and 74 stolen bases. West Portland has had 18 men In Wonder of wonders! Brock, the scrappy backstop of the East Side team, actually went through one game this season without crabbing at his team mates. The change was so manifest that hla teammates thought he was sick, or attracted by a "merry widow." tug-ofwarTveht of astoria's show Manager Flanch Arranprino: Details for Big Pull Be tween Eight Nations, The Annual Regatta to be held In Astoria will, besides the usual aquatic features, have an international tug of war contest, In which eight well tralnel teams, selected from the various na tions will participate. It is planned to make this the chief feature of the re gatta by Manager A. H. Planck, whose long experience In athletic sports of this and similar nature have made him sought for all over the coast when an exhibition of this kind is to be he'd. When seen yesterday and asked tho na ture of the exhibition, he said: "It win be one of the best exhibitions of pure athletics ever seen In Oregon. The eight teams are In active training cnl. instructed under the 'Police Gazette' rules as established by Richard K. Fox Jr., and they will make a fine exhibition of strength and brawn. Each nation represented will do Its very best to win the victory. The men are In fine con dition And It is sure to be an exciting contest. The same captains of last year's regatta are looking after their men ana no labor is being spared to get them in fine form. It promises to be one of the best mid-summer athlet- c events on the coast. f By Richard Dahlgren. (SpeoUl Cable to Hearst News Bervloe.) London, Aug. 1, The United States may well be proud of the splendid com pany of young athletes aha aent over to oompete In the Olymplo games. One thing may be said without fear of con tradiction, that every American in Lon don was glad to be known as a com patriot of the sturdy lot of youngsters who carried tho stars and stripes to brilliant victory under the most ad verse conditions. Ths story of the Olvmnln rsmes has already been so thoroughly well told 'n the news columns of the naners on tha other sido of the pond that It would be waste of time for me to nttemnt to go into the details. It Is to be greatly renrette.1 that n much ill feeling has been engendered between the American and English par ticularly. The Americans believe, and with good reason, that thev have heen discriminated against from "the very be ginning. As a matter of fact to snAjilr of "British fair play" these davs to an American athlete Is to bring out either a loud and sarcnstlc "haw. haw " nr .1 string of rather lurid profanity, accord ing to tno mime or mind or the man to whom one Is speaking. Xaiikee Tricks Feared. The discrimination against the Amer icans has been due to two causes In the first place, the average Britisher is firmly convinced that the American sportsman, whether amateur or profes sional, athlete or horseman. Is tricky and willing to resort to any method, fair or unfair, in order to win. Of course this Is absurd, for no athletes who competed at the Olympiad played stralgliter or won fairer than those who wore the stars and stripes. But tho British officials were always looking for "tricks" 011 t lie part of the Americans, and, naturally, found them even when there were none. Another thing Is that the average Briton cannot realize mat a man of any Ilshman takes up. Therefore, whan with the Innate suspicion of American trlck lnesa, they saw their beat were con stantly beaten by tha men from tha states, It became a settled conviction that the Americans were winning, not because they were the better men, but because of unfair methods, Thus It was that every teohnloallty was employed against the Amerloans, that every circumstance out of tha strict ordinary was looked on aa arl dence of sharp practice, and that on more than one occasion absolute rank Injustice was dona tha American ath letes. That they won ao splendid and de cided a victory in field and track ath letics adds to tha glory of their achieve ments. Radical OhanfM In Methods. One result of the grossly unfair rul ings of the British track officials un doubtedly will be a radical ohanga in the methoda of conducting future Olym piads. Theoretically amateur sports men are gentlemen who may be de pended upon to act with perfect fair ness. In practice the theory falls down b.'ullv. It ij certain, therefore, that lit future Olympiads the games will ba In the hands of an International commit tee and the Judges will be drawn from the various nations which compets. In this wav only will it be possible to avoid a repetition of the scandals which have done much to spoil the London gnme and which have made the boasted "British fair play" a cause for laughter. It can safely be said, according to all the evidence, that the British ama teur athletes are the hardest losers in the world. This has only been emphasized at the Olympic games. When American horses, trainers and Jockeys wero sweeping thi British turf, they were either ruled off or things were made ho unpleasant for (hom thnt thev voluntarily retired When American oarsmen show signs of winning in Great Britain, they are etlheF barred or so discriminated against they cannot win, and when other foi- elcn oarsmen win the Hrltish reluso other nation Is as good as an English-I to play any more.
