SSONTO DISAPPOINTMENT t OF LEAGUE THIS TEAS J ' jst Tear They Landed Pennant, But jnjury to Players Killed Their Chances This Season. J by HAL SHEBIDAN. '(Written for the United Press.) "jtew York, Sept. 4. Right in the ijow of the scramble In the Eastern ivinion of the American and National pie pennant races a little looking jound reveals another tussle of con arable noto, and today we beg to in duce the International league. Edward Barrows, president of the "ranization, was one or tne nardest jhters for the AA classificat'on jjich was finally granted the Amcri- Association and International and rific Coast Leagues. This has been year for tho International and various owners report much money having trickled into the strong ' .$ I 'lint leaving behind the question of stances and getting into the pennant jtc, Newark is picked to finish in the lJ. Rochester and Baltimore have illoped along strong and fought each !Jcr off in second and third position jring a big part of the season. Buf lo also Bhowed in fair shape, with lontreal. Providence, Toronto and r?ey City battling along as best they Will. Toronto was a big disappointment. hey won the pennant up at Toronto it year, but after getting off to a M start, trouble struck out on their ail with leaps and bounds. At one ,lpie this season Toronto had eight layers laid up with injuries, which fijiht he taken as more or less discon erting. Canadians Like Baseball. ,M while mentioning this Canadian qnimunity, it might be added that jjey know a lot more in Toronto and "Montreal about baseball than do the .fielish brothers across the pond. The Jnadians have graduated from crick- to our own national pastimes. If Mi want statistics, 21,000 persons fn racked into the Toronto ball park the opening game this season. Mon real is also one? of the leading towns 4r attendance, which says something r the drawing power of tbaseball, and lakes it the real American pastime. ;Haltimoro heads the International iSagiie in having Bhnkcn down the big Vt jiile of money from the majors (ring the season. They disposed of linl Bascninn Maisel to tho New 'prk Yankees, getting $12,000 cash ith Third Baseman Midkiff and Out Wiler Daniels. The Boston Nationals t Lord from Baltimore in May, and "flitied off Leslie Mann from Buf- ilo. Outfielilcr Baiim, of Detroit, came torn Providence and Umpire Quigloy, fro calling balls and strikes in the ational league, was picked from the iternational league during the middle !the summer. Tracing Quigley back the point of discovery, it is also 5'ned that he is an export mathema 'n. lie started with that outlook I life, at any rate, and if there is any 'fiument he might be able to prove, if tft to the test, whether a ball cut the pte by working it out with curves M angles. I Some Promising Players. ,H of the promising material hasn't I'n picked up in this thriving league V- Scouts from most of the major H8 have looked over Truesdalo, Buf f's second baseman, and Oilhooly, ""ntrenl's crack center fielder. The " ones predict a wild scramble for these two plavers. ami ttiw ... ... ... ....... IMJIl- omerea certain of advancement into fast company. F.vonr : . league has two or three plavers which 1 the home fans expect to see taken away from the home lot, and thrown into the midst of tho strifo of the big ' cities. Baltimore, besides having already ' giveu up Maisel. has ri,,..!. ' ' pitcher, and Cooper, outfielder, who are rooked upon as big lea;;ue mate rial. Jersey City exhibiti prM a ""ng third sackor, and Mellale' a pitcher. In addition to Oilhoolcy, JUntrenl preseHe Catcher Burns d EigUt Fielder Allen. Newark fan, ure afra.d they are going to lose Second l.aseman Gets and First Baseman Swacena. Brooklyn has already picked up Atchison, a pitcher, for delivery in September. Jumping into Providence Platte, a right fielder; Deal, third baseman, and Reisegl, pitcher, are the most likely looking. Rochet, ha8 Schmidt, a first baseman, and Martin, shortstop, who are considered about ripe for the majors, and Toronto of fers Schultz, center' fielder, and Hearne, pitcher, for inspection. Out of that bunch somebody might build a ball team. the result that McDonald, who drove Oakdale, was called to the Btand and it was announced, after an explana tion that Checney was placed fifth because of an unavoidable interfer ence. That let Fleming's mare have another chance, and she made the most of it, coming home first in the next three heats, in which she passed Mar igold half way down the stretch iu the first two and held the lead all the way from the three-quarter pole. Hollyrood Kate had tho first heat for 3-yoar-olds apparently at her mer cy, when about 50 feet from the wire the roan filly slipped and almost fell, George Bex coming in ahead. Tuna Z. had too much speed for Rex in the see ond heat and won handily, but in the third heat she broke less than 100 feet from the wire and George Rex took the heat and the race. , . . . . :: Jabs and Jolts ' PHILADELPHIA CARRIES CRIPPLED KIDS TO SCHOOL Idnitso rmss lbassd wins. Philadelphia, Sept. 4.-Father Penn is some sport, according to the school children of Philadelphia today, when they saw for the first time two large automobiles similar to "rubber-neck wagons," with the words "Bureau of Education" on the body of the cars. The autos were built by a private con cern, which has the contract for car rying crippled children to and from school, an innovation-that will bo in augurated at the coming school ses sion. The cars have just been com pleted, and will go into commission next month. This new phase of pub lic school convenience is one of the re sults of the school course taken by a number of city officials and school heads this summer at the University of Wisconsin. The system which is being tried probably is the first of its kind in the country. A motor car company has contracted to convey the physically disabled children to the schools in the morning and take hem home in the af ternoon. The Horace Bineny school has been selected 'or the experiment, and, if it proves successful, other schools in widely sepnrated sections will be given automobiles for their crippled scholars. Attendants will be on each car. Under the Pennsylvania school code, the board must provide an education for all children, and the school for cripples is the first of a number to be located in various sec tions of the city. America's atlethic supremacy In com petition with other nations is due to the facility with which trainers may gain information of promising perform ances through the newspapers and oth erwise, in the opinions of members of the German atletic commission, which arrived in Chicago yesterday. The com missioners will remain in that city un til Sundfay, when they leave to visit western cities. The pitching staff of the New York American league team further was in creased yesterday with the arrival of Pitcher George Shears, recently pur chased from Brockton New England league club. Shears, a left-hander, re ported to Manager Chance. Jack Coombs, whose pitching helped to bring twoworld's baseball cham pionships to Philadelphia, probably will not be in the world's series next month in the event the Aethletics win the American league pennfint. After being in all season he has been compelled to take to his bed again as the result of a severe wrenching of his side during batting practice on Labor day. Coombs is in an enfeebled condition and hit physician said it would be out of the question for him to rally in time to take part in the series.

MAGNATES OF BOTH COAST LEAGUES WILL GATHER UNITED PHESS LKARKD Wins. Hartford, Cann., Sept. 4. Directum I, tho sensational pacing stallion of the season, afforded the spectators at the grand circuit races hero a thrill yester day afternoon when he took the 2:07 pace in straight heats, outclassing the field. The Capital City 2:08 trot was won by the little bay mare Checney, after losing the first heat, while the unexpected happened twice in the 2:20 trot for 3-year-olds, allowing George Rex to come in a winner after three heats, on both occasions it being al most certain that the best he could do was second, place. i ' In tho 2:00 trot. Fan Fnteh, who just lost a chance to enpturo the race in the sixth heat, when James W. nosed her out at the wire, camo back strongly this afternoon and beat James W. in a close finish. Directum I surprised the crowd by his wonderful burst of speed. In the second heat he broke at the quarter polo and dropped four lengths behind the field. He caught his feet quickly, set sail after tho field and caught the I bunch at tho turn into the stretch. He forged to the front, oasily winning, with something to spare. Ho made the last half milo in l:00Vj. In the first heat of the Capital City trot Cascado, Rythmcll and Checney were shut out, Marigold winning, but Driver Klemming appealed to the judges, and so did Oakdale 's pilot with (CKiTiD rum uaimd wim.i Portland, Ore., Sopt. 4. Portland will be host to the baseball magnates of the Pacific Coast and Northwestern leagues September 29, if tho plans of Judge McCredie, owner of both Port land franchises, materialize. The judge announced yesterday that ho intended to invito the directors of both leagues to meet hero on that date so that a decision may be reached as to whether Portland retains a North western league franchise next yenr. In cidentally the annual exhibition game between tho Portland Coasters and the Northwestorns will bo played on that date, and the judgo is anxious to have the nabobs attend. American League. R. II.

Attorney General Crawford last night handed out the following statement in reply to charges of Governor West that the attorney general had failed to pro ceed properly in an investigation of lawlessness in the Coos Bay district: "I notice in the evening papers that you have made some criticism on my report of my recent trip to Coos county, relative to the non-enforcement of the criminal laws, in which you are quoted as saying in effect that the attorney general interviewed a few people and secured information which had already been furnished him through communica tions sent to your office by citizens of Coos county. "Then you continue: 'This office will again proceed to take the matter up through special counsel with a view of presenting it to the court, as provid ed by law, and will await the findings of the court.' "I beg to say that I called your at tention in my report to the fact that the court did not meet until the 8th of- this month, and that all documents wore filed with the clerk of the court for consideration at that time, and that I called the district attorney's attention to the matter, that all viola tions of the criminal laws shown in the documents might be published. "Said chanter 180 provides that the attorney general shall present the matter to the court if requested by the governor. I was so requested and I presented the matter just as far as it could be presented before court meets. This you well knew when you made your statornont to the press. I could have remained until the 8th by neglecting othor business of import ance, but concluded to ask the district attorney to present the matter.
