DRAIN MAY
GET GOOD JOB

SEATTLE, Feb. 21.-It became
known today that when James A.
Drain, adjutant general of the
state of Washington, was here re-
Gently, he talked with some men,
bers of the Washington delegation
in regard to an appointment as a
member of the Philippine commits
sion.
He told them that Secretary
Taft had indicated to him that he
would be glad to have him appoint
ed to the commission, but that he
wished him to secure the political
Endorsements of the Washington
delegation.
At least one member of the dele
cation expressed an unwillingness
to indorse General Drain for the
place, and the matter was dropped.
1t now appears that the presi-
dent is considering the question of
General Drain to the Office of as
sistant auditor of the Philippine
islands, with headquarters at Man
liza.

= BASEBALL LEADERS ON 1906 <


To Sporting Editor Of The Press.
The base ball outlook for 1906,
in my opinion, justifies the pre-
diction THAI it will be the best in
the history of the game. The coun-
try is prosperous, the game was
never on a better footing in the
matter of protection and govern
ment, and the interest in the game
is keeping pace with the progress
of the country.
Speaking for the National Lea
que, we have much to base our
hopes upon for a banner season.
The year 1905. financially, was the
best the National League has en-
joyed for years. At the conclusion
of the season, the champion club
Of the National League emphat-
ically established its claims to SUI
periority by winning the great hon
or of the worlds championship in
q most decisive manner. The re-
suit of the pOst-season series was
OF great benefit to organized base
ball as whole as well as to the
National League through the pres
tige obtained by the success of it's
representative team. In addition
to the prestige of starting the cam
paign of 1906 in possession of the
worlds championship, the old
league will offer an additional at
traction to its patrons in the form
OF a more interesting and exciting
championship race than the pre-
ceding year. The reason for this

MEX. CENTRAL
BOND ISSUE
(Scripps News Association.)


NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-NegOtia-

sale of an issue of Mexican Central
bonds, the proceeds of which are
to be used to refun the existing
Az, and 6 per cent bonds and
notes and to provide funds for the
development Of the railroad proS.
erty. No exact figures have as yet
been given out, but it is understood
that the issue will amount to $780,
100000 to s30,000,000. The roads
collateral trust mortgage Az per
cent bonds. amounting to $4,000,
600, are due in February, 1907. A
similar amount in collateral trust
notes at 6 per cent is due in Janu-
airy, 1907. Two issues of 5 per
cent equipment bonds are outstand-
ing, one for $650,000 due April
1917, the other for $750,000 due
October, 1919. The refunding Of
these securities would necessitate
the raising of at least $21 100000.

The latter wants this fight also
and the only thing which remains
is for them to get together on the
weight proposition and other de-
tails. Tommy Ryan is one of the
wisest match makers that ever
stepped through the ropes. He has
business instinct enough to realize
that fight with O'Brien would be
one of the biggest fights of the
present decade and would be worth
many thousands, even to the loser,
with the picture privilege and the
purse. He wants to fight this one
fight and then to retire for good.
Sooner or later these two men will
get together. The public will de-
mand it and neither of them is
fool enough to pass up the big

So says an eastern sporting
newspaper and the writer goes on

Kid Harrison is said to have
stated that Jack. O'Keefe was a
whipped man in the seventh round
of the last go with Parker, and
the only thing that saved him was
Eddie Quinn thinking the gong

asked about the statement: "Par-

all in. I think Parker would have
won that fight If the mistake had
not happened. O'Keefe was very

IMPORT IRON ORE
FROM ABROAD
(scripps News Association }


PITTSBURG, Pa, Feb. 21.-The
demand for raw material used in
the manufacture of steel is so great
that all records in imports of iron
ore were eclipsed last month, when
nearly 100000 tons arrived in New
York and other eastern ports.
While more than one-half of the
January imports came from Cuban
mines, controlled by the Pennsyl-
vania Steel company, the material
was largely imoprted on Pittsburg
district account. The call for ore
by mills located in the interior is
so urgent that considerable i'm
ports are being made from Persia,
Spain and Greece. The first cargo
of iron ore ever brought into the
United States from a Persian gulf
port came from Bussorah.
