Sand Crabs ReVoIff0r
Lack of Pay
Players Call Game OF and De-
cline TO Do Further Work I'm
til Bach Wages Appear
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO TIE CALL

SANTA CRUZ, July 2.-Today's ball
game was handed by the umpire TO
the San Francisco state league team
by score of to 0.
There was an tnSurrection among
the Sand Crab family and the local
league team refused to play ball
further unless back wages were forth
coming. Trouble was brewing yes
terday, when Jimmy Shinn refused to
play, and today demands vAere made
upon owners of the local team for
back pay. Pitcher Loucks was spokes-
man and he appealed TO T. w. Swan
ton. The players were wrathy when
the latter made a proposition to cancel
back pay and start all over again. Such
a proposal was Indignantly rejected
and then Swanton told the players
they could do their worst, little think
ing they would do so.
They called his bluff, however, and
the fans were disappointed when the
local team did not appear on the dia-
mond. Loucks telegraphed to State
could leave and play elsewhere and
word came that they could not.
Fans are indignant and wrathy over
the treatment of the players, whose
salaries are said to have gone behind
more than $1,000.
To cap the climax today W. J
Keating resigned as manager, tired of
the whole thing. He succeeded Man
ager Bradford and took hold of the
$4,000 and endeavOred to straighten
matters UP and put the team on a pen
nant winning class. as he did. He
claims two weeks more would have
seen the organization on paying
basis.

all Bobby Groom could go for and in
the next spasm the Beavers had a new
slabster in the person of Ole Johnson.
The terrible Swede was all the cake
for a while, too. He did not toss many
curves, but he had lot of smoke and
fine control, and the Seals were back
ing up under his fire except in the
seventh inning.
1t was here that Hide picked off a
safe drive into the left garden and
stole without loss of time. A passed
ball put him on third, after which
Williams took a base on balls. On the
first bail pitched, the pair started and
neither stopped until a pretty double
steal had been pulled off for the last
run Of the afternoon.
One of the best Thursday crowds of
the season saw the game, which was
intensely exciting throughout, not
withstanding the fact that 1t belonged
to the Seals after the first inning.
Errors were few and far between, the
players on both sides doing their work
like men who liked the going. Slow
pitching by all three slabsters used up
nearly two hours of time.

Baseball Notes

In the early stages of the game 1t looked as
though Sutor was going after the sTikeout
record, for he famed four men In two innings.
The Beavers managed to hnd the ball later on,
but not safely however
Mccredie could keep out Of the game no

watch the game from the bench after that
The Seals gave the best exhibition of base
running that was ever, seen on the lot. All OF
them used their heads as well as their feet
tore tore around. Whaling nailed but two base
runners at second all afternoon He could not
peg at all.

Dutch McArdle has recovered from his recent
injury and he was out on the lines making lots
of noise yesterday. Dutch is a nice fielder, but
he never can punch the ball the way Joe Curtis
is doing. The best thing that Long can do is
to let Curtis play that third bag for awhile. A
man who wailops like Curtis Is the very man
for the Seals right now.
The chances are that Rollie Zeider will be
sold to Cleveland very shortly. Tom o'Brien,

Every Beaver Looks
Alike to Sufor
Big Texas SouthpaD Bldnks the
Famed Sluggers With Five
Scattered Hits
By w. J. SIaffery

The far famed slugging Beavers
faded away like a bunch of whiting
wild flowers before the cannon ball
yesterday afternoon at the Valencia
street lot. The big left handler went
right down the line and whisked the
Portlanders to the bench with machine
like regularity from the first inning
on. Five hits, scattered all along the
route of battle. is the best the league
leaders did. They were as far away
from the plate when they finished as
when they started.
Urged on by the shouts of some 5000
kids in the grandstand, all of whom
came, as usual, as Manager Jack
Gleason's guests. the Seals waded into
the going from the outset and were
the big bosses Of the field all the time.
Whenever there was anything stirring
the boys were right on the Job. They
overlooked no bets in the field, at the
bat or on the paths. and every time
they started to get anything they gen
orally gathered.
WORK ON SACKS WINS
The work of the Seals on the sacks
is really what won them the game.
Imagine nine of them stealing. and all
clean steals at that. After Mohler had
gotten away with two in the opening
inning everybody was wild to pilfer.
All they had to do was to start. for
Whaling never could catch one of
them.
Captain Mohler set a good example
for the boys by breaking in with the
first run in the opening inning. Lead
ing off with a double against the right
field fence, Mohler stole third after
Hildebrand had been retired, third to
first. Then Zeider faded by the Cooney-
Darzig route, but after the play had
been pulled off the Kid tore for the
plate. He gave a great exhibition of
head work and slid safely under DAN
zig's return throw.
That was all till the fourth Then
Melchoir singled to left after Williams
liams stole third and Melchoir fol-
lowed by stealing second. Curtis was
there with his timely little drive to
center and Nick registered.
II looked as though one would about
hold the boys. but they were not
through yet Henderson waited while
Groom hurled four wide ones and Ber-
~ caught a fast one amidships and
sent ii on its way to deep left. Mel
choir came right through and Curtis
tried to follow his lead, but Bassey's
throw was perfect, so Joe was tossed
out by a foot.
TERRIBLE sWEDE TO RESCUE
That one inning seemed to be about

elected to the legislature, despite the

void of a signature calling upon them

A dispatch from Marshalltown, Ia,
says that the Iowa Central employees
have won their battle for the standa..d
wage scale and all danger of another
strike is over. 1t is understood that
the men won practically every cor
tention.
The Grand Trunk railroad seems to
be having considerable trouble with
the men taken to Battle Creek from
Port Huron two months ago. Almost
every day one or more of the men re-
turn here, saying that they have been
put on piecework since the shops were
removed, and that they cannot make
their expenses under the new sched-
ule. Robert Hammond, in the employ
of the company for the past eight
years as foreman, is the latest. He
says he has returned to Point Huron

AMERICAN LABOR CHEAPEST.
Does More for the Wages Paid Than
ANY Other Labor.

OOcS WoTC iOT Tic wages GdsO Het
Any Other Labor.
James L. Hill, president of the
Great Northern and other railroads, is
authority for the assertion that train
gang on his American railroads handle
more than seven times as many tons
cf freight per mile as do the trail
gangs of English, French or German
railroads. For this seven times as
much result American trainmen re-
ceive less than twice as much wages.
Secretary Wilson of the department
of agriculture. in an address, the other
day, said that one American farm
hand produces more rice than 400
Cinnamon. Chinese wages are only
10 to IL cents a day; but if the rice
workers of this country got the same
rate for results produced, their pay
would be s44 to $4S day, instead of
81. so.
Cheap labor" never could produce
the marvellous crops and manufacture
ers of this country. Yet, measured by
what it does, it is the cheapest labor
on the surface of the earth.
And it is utterly false that prices are
higher because wages are high.
Compared with the price the con.
sumner pays, wages are lower than in
Europe or China-St. Louis Globe

THE WOMAN WORKER.
How She Depresses the Labor Market
When She Enters 1t.

Women" said big trade union
official last year, is the white China
man of the industrial world. She
wears coiled up que, and where
ever she goes she cheapens the worth
of human labor"
An illustration follows:
Miss Mary Mcdowell, of the Univer-
sity of Chicago Settlement, was OBJ
serving girl who was operating an
unusually heavy and intricate ma
chine in a large hardware factory in
an Ohio city.
Strong, clever girl remarked Miss
Mcdowell or words to that effect.
"She's doubled the output of that
machine" said the superintendent.
How did she get such a good job?''
asked Miss Mcdowell.
Her father" said the superinten-
dent, had the machine before she
got it. We just thought we'd try her"
How much,' said Miss Mcdowell,
being Scotch and suspicious and not
completely satisfied with this proof
of the advance of woman, chow much
do you pay her compared with that
you paid her father?"
HALF" said the superintendent
This girl, therefore, since she was
producing twice as much and earning
half as much, as her father had pro-
duced and earned, was selling her
labor at one-quarter of the masculine
market price. 1t doesn't seem exactly
fair, from the standpoint of society
