KLEPPER TRIES TO- EM 1 Deal With Tacoma Men Causes Portlander to Be Ousted from Baseball V;--.. Destruction of Bumper Crops ; ; and Financial Disaster ' PORTLAND. Dec. 6. Private telegrams from W. H. Klepper, president and chief owner of the Portland baseball clab, received here today from Louisville con tained the statement that the newest 'proceedings to bar him from baseball bad come as a com plete surprise. Klepper said that last February he had planned in conjunction with citizens of Ta coma to finance a club in the Pacific International league. ' ' The Tacomans, Klepper said, were to raise about $5,000 and he was. to contribute a . similar amount. Klepper's $6000 was pa(d in, he said, and later be filed an agreement with the national association saying that the amount had 'been paid up. This, he said, he did In the belief that the Tacomans had fulfilled their agreement as he had fulfilled his. Later, according to Klepper, it de veloped that the Tacoma subscrip tion list was some $1800 short. "I could not possibly have hoped to benefit by this short age,"; declared Klepper, "and I do not know why I have been held accountable."
