New -Yorlt, Oct. 3.). Organized
baseball magnates declare that the
.cost of operating a major league base
ball club l not loss than SO per cent
greater than It wan two years ago.
The antiwer Is PrenWlent James A.
Cllmore and Ms outlaw "Federal
league.
Owners of American and National
league riluliH nay the daya'of big divi
dends are past and that they are lucky
If they manage to work through the
xeaMon with even a slight balance on
the right Hide of the ledger. It wab
not like thin In the good old days
for the magnates. lint it'n mightv
fine now for Mi. liallplayer. The
Hinrx and the mediocre iluyin of or
ganized baseball would hate to pee tne
Federals go under as much as tho
Owners themselves. And they also
re pulling for a continuation of war
between the outlaws and the Tener
and Johnson organizations.
Here is the answer: Since the out
law league donned its fighting clothes,
organized baseball players who were
lucky to draw down $l!500 a year. In
, some Instances demanded and in most
cases were granted increases of from
J 15(H) Co 12000. A star pitcher who
formerly received' $4000 for his sea
son's- work i now paid $6000 and
I700O. The big league magnates were
forced to come across or see their
stars jump to the despised outlaws.
And the players, too, In many In
stances, forced the owners to sign
contracts for from three to live years.
(illmore says the Keds will take 10
of the best players from the majors
this winter. And (Jilmore has a way
of making good his threats. The Kotfs
are after Walter Johnson, and openly
declare they are going to get him even
If they- have to pay him $.". )U0 a year.
They also are on the trail of Ty Cobb,
Bam Crawford, Trls Speaker. Joe Jack
son, Jack Allller, Bill James of Hob
ton. Hank Ouwdy, Kabbit Maran villo
and a number of other lesser lights.
And organized baseball knows it, and
will have to come through with more
money for these stars, or see them
cast their lot with the Feds.

Judge W. W. McCredie and Nephew
Walter returned yesterday from San
Francisco, where both were in attend
ance at the annual Coast league meet
ing, which was devoted to trying to
put the circuit on Its legs again.
Judge McCredie says that until the
committee secured a sixth city to tafee
the place of Sacramento, nothing will
be done with the schedule. From his
conversation it is taken that he is in
clined to favor Salt Lake City, with
a population of 125,000. over San
Diego and Sacramento. Railroad lines
from Los Angeles, San Francisco and
Portland enter Salt Lake and it Is of
easy access. While the railroad fare
would be higher to Salt Lake, tha re
ceipts would be greater than at San
Diego or Sacramento. -
Walter McCredie said that he would
probably sell Sam Brenegan and use
Gus Fisher and Dan Murray as his
regular catchers next year. Hi West
will also be sold, he thinks.

Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 30. Advertised
as an 'all main event smoker, tne
four-round card presented at ' Moose
hall last night lived up to its claim.
Joe Bonds, pride of Tacoma, put up
a great fight and stopped big Jack
Root of Portland in the second round
of a terrific scrap. Root got In bad
right away. Bonds came up smilingly
and extended his mitt. ; But instead of
shaking hands, Roc.t whipped a left for
tne jaw. it was poor juagment, as
Bonds hopped all over him then and
had him tottering at the end of the
round. Despite 80 pounds weight dis
advantage. Bonds gave the Portlander
a fearful mauling and the latter's sec
onds threw up-, the sponge in the sec
ond.
Billy Weeks, the Canadian middle
weight champion, and Jim O'Brien, the
Irish title holder, staged a great bout
as- far as cleverness is concerned.
Weeks had a shade and got the de

SENATORIAL FORECAST.
Approaching frost in the timber belt.
Local interest in baseball just now
is confined to the visit tomorrow of
the American and the National league
All-Stars, who will play exhibition
games here tomorrow and Sunday.
Owing to the late arrival of the major
leaguers from Bellingham, the Satur
day game will probably not get under
way until after 3 o'clock, while the
Sunday game, as usual, will start at
2:30 o'clock. The Coast league admis
sion prices will prevail.
It is expected that one of the larg
est crowds of the year in Portland will
turn out to greet the major leaguers,
provided the weather is favorable to
morrow and Sunday.
It is very likely that Bill James of
Portland and Bill James of Seattle
will pitch one of the games here.

the result of last night's scrimmage

sity 18 to 0. Captain Talbot 'was on
the side lines on crutches yesterday
and will not be able to play against
the Colgate team tomorrow.
"The teams of the Pacific Coast

matched; if anything. Portland is a
little stronger than either Vancouver
or Victoria," said E. H.' Savage, one
of the directors of the Portland Ice
hippodrome: who a&ived this morning
from Vancouver. B, C.
"The trade, which gave to Portland
Harris of Vancouver for Mallen,
strengthened the Portland ream a great
deal. Harris is a headier player than
Mallen." j
According to Savage Portland is still
dickering for the services of Leseure,
the player-manager of the Ottawa
team of last season, and hopes to be
able to secure him. Savage is also
dickering for the services of Mitchell,
La young player, who made gooa as
goal keeper or tne victoria team last
season, and Irving, a goal keeper, who
played with the Winnipeg Monarchs.
"The new rules adopted at the an
nual meeting of the league recently
will improve the game," said Savage.
"The 10 foot checking rule is to pre
vent injury to the players. Last sea
son there was a great deal of bad blood
between the players and they would
check each other into the feqpe. The
league officials agreed, however, if the
rule slows the game they will throw
it out.
"The new offside rule will make the

GOLFING HINTS
By "Straight Drive."
Out of bunkers. An effective shot
to bare at your command is what we
will call the sliced niblick shot. Where
the ball lies close up to edge of a
bunker and it is next to impossible
to play straight toward the pin a
violently sliced attempt "will frequent
ly get the desired rise and clearance.
By aiming well to the lert an al
lowance for the slice" is had and the
ball given a chance to clear the bank
and go joyfully on its way toward tho
hofe. As the club comes down with
the inward drag across the ball it is
amazing how simple it seems to im
part the upward flight.
On the other hand, when a ball lies
close to edge of a trap with the bank
directly back of it, the same type
of sliced stroke will often get it safe
ly out when no other would. It is an
easy stroke to learn with a little
practice and onde mastered will en
able the player to make occasional sur
prising recoveries.
