Racing in Butte Will Be
Held Next Summer
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

BUTTE, Mont. Dec. 3o--H. 1. Wilson,
president of the Butte jockey club, an
nounced tonight after meeting of di-
rectors that 40 days race meet would
be held in Butte next summer
The opening date will be announced
later after President Wilson has COM
municated with the secretaries of the
various racing associations of the
northwest and this state.
A feature of the meeting of the di-
rectors was to eliminate Harry Stover
of Petaluma, Cal, from any part what
ever in the conduct of next years meet
ing. His work, 1t is said. was so pal
pably miserable that neither he nor
any other outsider will be in charge of
the next racing here. A member of
the Butte club will soon go to Califor-
MIA to secure the best racing officials
In that state for the Butte meeting, to-
gether with stables.

Frank Chance Picking Up
Stockton Players
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

STOCKTON. Dec 3o.-Frank Chance
vaded Stockton and has secured con-
ditional contract with Danny Shay to
play with the Nationals, should Stock
ton by any hook or crook fail to play
outlaw ball. Climatic conditions here
coupled with the advantages of fewer
games in the outlaw league hold Shay
spellbound.
Chance in an interview stated that
he had Shay and would probably get
Moskiman. although he had not as yet
tried to secure him.
Chance expects to play Shay in util-
ity roles with Zimmerman on second,
provided Eyers lays off, as is most
probable. IT is understood that If Shay
remains here in outlaw ball he will be
made field captain for the Stockton
club

promptly took over in payment Of
their Indebtedness TO him.
He did not become a conspicuous
figure, however. until he had cornered
the ice market. The first important
development of the lee trust idea was
made manifest in 1897, when the Con
solidated Ice company was formed.
This master stroke put an end to most
of the small and struggling concerns
and also put great fortune In the
pockets of Charles w. Morse. Two
years later the American Ice company
was born. and rs head gained the title
Of ice king. The price of Ice doubled
in week. Competitors were handled
with no mercy and soon ceased to ex-
list in appreclable numbers.
IL was at this time that Mr. Morse
became actively Interested In politics
not national or even state, but plain
municipal politics. He became a mem
Der of Tammany Hall and soon welded
a mighty influence in the inner coun-
ellis or that organization. Some of the
leading city officials became interested
in his business projects and great
scandal resulted. Charges of corrup-
ticn were made on every hand, and
whether true or not It was a cold day
for Tammany when II went into the ice
business It's members who held proml-
ncnt municipal offices were killed po-
litically, but Morse made millions from
tho operation.
This brilliant financial coup would
have satisfied some men. but II was
merely a fresh stimulus TO the expah-
sive energies 81 the ice king. lie
reached out eagerly for a new field to
conquer, and he began his campaign
by acquiring n leading influence in all
the New York banks that could be
controlled by n man of his business
power and capital Almost before any
one realized il he blossomed forth as
a formidable competitor of Morgan,
Rockefeller and Morton. The possibili-
ties of the combination of two lines Of
activity was uppermost in his mind,
and as soon as the proper moment ar
rived he proceeded to direct all his
energies to that end. One was the
consolidation of the Atlantic coastwise
lines and the other was the control of
a long string of banks,
1t was in the effort to accomplish all
this that Charles w. Morse, amazing
manipulation that he was. overreached
himself GEORGE II. PICARD.
