Oakland games protested by Oakland
and forfeited to that club because
of the playing of lietliug, who bus
been declared ineligible, will come
up. Graham is determined to thor
oughly thresh out the matter, ami
thero is every prospect thnt punish
ment will be meted out to the Port
laud magnate and manager. The
extremely discourteous language
used hy MeCredie in his replv has
stirred the fighting blood of Judge
Graham. ,
Next in importance to thee Me
Ciedio incident will be the Hetling
