STANFORD MEN CONSIDER A
UNIQUE PROPOSITION
American National Game Is Making
lnroads on the Little Brown
Athletes, Who Wish to
Perfect the Sport

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. ..
-Graduat Manager D. d. Sales has
received word from a company dealing
in athletic supplies extending an offer
to the Stanford baseball team to go to
Japan next summer to play series of
games with the Japanese college teams
of Waseda university and the Imperial
University of Toxic.
The firm offers to pay the entire ex-
penses of the team, the trip to extend
over two or three months. There are a
number of American teams in Japan
and the games would be secured with
them as well as with the japanese uni
VerSities.
Baseball in Japan is gaining wide
spread popularity, and the Japanese
schools and academies are beginning to
take to the sport in an energetic man
ner. When the team representing the
Waseda university of Japan visited this
country they created a very favorable
impression by their playing.
They had however, not yet mastered
the fine points Of the game, such as
bunt and run and some of the tricks on
the bases. These points were studied
by the men while they were on the
coast, and there is no doubt but what
the lessons were we'll learned.
1t is thought that a better brand of
than could be found in any locality out
side of the United States.
The plan is unique in the history of
college baseball and the players on the
campus are enthusiastic over the pros
poets. The faculty of the university
have as yet taken no action in the mat
ter and plans will of necessity be de-
layed until some action be taken by
that body.
tn c n
matter in the future, the baseball men
are rejoicing in the announcement that
the squad would take a trip to Colorado
during the eastern vacation of the sec
ond semester Sales has negotiated
with the University of Colorado ard
the Denver School of Mines for a series
of three games to be played in Denver.
The football trip of the 1905 varsity
football team proved of such success
that a similar trip on the part of the
baseball team is considered highly de-
sirable

Hambureers Defeated In Eleven In
ming Contest and Protest at
Failure Of Umpire to
See Play
LEAGIIN sTANDING

Moran baseball men yesterday
gained the top of the Southern Cali
fornia league when Bob Whaling OF
the newly formed organization delib-
erately It from second base across
the pitchers box in the first half OF
an eleven-inning game and scored the
winning run against the Hamburger
nine.
Umpire Duprez was intently watch
ing a close proceeding at first and
failed to observe Whaling In his high
way tactics. A great clamor arose
from the department store boys when
Whaling was called safe and for "a
moment it appeared as though small
sized riot would result.
Duprez could not possibly have made
a different decision as his back was
turned to the runner on second base.
Just before reaching the plate Whal-
ing wisely veered to the base line and
Duprez caught him apparently in the
act of a successful and legitimate
steal.
Portions Of the crowd gave vent to
derision both at Whaling and Duprez,
while the remainder roundly applauded
the timely bit of ground saving.
Much pro and con resulted as re-
garded Whaling's action in cutting
the diamond, and while some held that
he should have been called out on gen.
eral principles the trick is time hon
ored one which can only be worked
once season under the present con-
ditions which prevail. Whaling took
a long chance and got away with it.
Duprez did not see the play and could
not have called him out
With the score tie at A, Whaling
opened with a hit to center, taking
second on Thompsons error. A moment
later Raleigh rolled a slow one down
the first base line. Ferline came in
for it and Duprez, while engaged in
watching for the result allowed Whal-
ing to turn his trick
The game was a fast one from start
to finish, replete with brilliant plays
and sufficient errors to make the out
come uncertain.
Whaling and Morarity developed a
ing four clean-cut bingles out of five
times at bat. Two wild throws marred
a sensational fielding exhibition by
the Moran third baseman.
Louis Lamer at short covered acres
of ground and practically everyone of
his eight accepted chances were bad
drives calling for quick action.
Harris at second base FOR the HAM
burgers was in rare form on the field
and pulled down several seemingly
impossible chances back of first base
Tom Whaling pitched steady ball
for the winners, while Hartman
emerged nicely from several bad holes
by the cleverest sort Of headwork.
Whaling opened the second inning
with three-bagger to center and
scored when Moriarty smashed a safe
one over second. The Hams made
three in the second and another in the
seventh The Morans tied with runs
secured in the fifth and sixth, winning
out in the eleventh.
The Pasadenas clouted Gamble of the
Hoegee Flags hard and won a shut
out of so. Gray, for the Crown City
boys, proved invincible.
The scheduled game for today be-
tween the Dyas-Clines and Morans has
been postponed for a future date.

TOO MICH LAW
HURTS ALASKA
Nome PIacers Will Be the Greatest
the World Ever Knew, When Suf-
fcient Machinery Reaches
the North

NJ. S. Alden, en- route to Ogden from
trip to Alaska, where he and his
brother, f. c. Alden, are running on
the quartz ledges that overlie the
beach placers that are making Nome
famous. says the great holdback in
the Alaska gold fields is that there are
too many lawyers. The quartz lodges
carry great gold values in Alaska, but
have been neglected because of the
beach placers, and those owned and
now being operated by the Alden
brothers are located about forty-five
miles southeast of Nome.
OF the beach diggings at Nome, Mr..
Alden says they are meeting with
great success.
Produces $4,000 Daily
The Bessie Bench, on the second
beach, is producing from $500 to $780,
0Oe per day, and is building up fortunes
for it's owners.
The great drawback to the complete
development of the Alaska gold fields
is litigation.
Shysters, he says, are on the alert for
chances to secure suborned witnesses,
and the man who has the temerity to
locate and work claim near Nome is
taking chances on being cited into
court. The conditions are just as COR
rupt, Mr.. Alden says, as they were be-
fore the notorious Mckenzie was sent
to San quentin.
Swamped With Orders
OF the general work on the streams,
Mr.. Alden says that dredging is being
Installed on the Yukon for 900 miles, in
the vicinity of the Klondike, on Solo
mon river and at Fairbanks. The
trouble is that while many orders are
ir for dredges the manufacturers are
unable to fill orders for this season. but
accept orders for 1907.
Mr.. Alden says that in the beach
placer, and particularly the second
beach. in the deep workings, 1870 feet
or more, the water has come in in such
volume as to drive the men out. Pump
ing machinery cannot be obtained
quickly, and work has to be suspended.
He thinks that when pumping facilities
can be provided to permit working on
bedrock the Nome placers will be the
greatest the world ever knew.
Wages in that section are uniformly
s. per day and board, and the summers
are ideal.
