BIG JOB FOR MORGAN'S Believed that He Will Step Into Harriman's
 Shoes ELDER MORGAN IS BUYING U. P. STOCK Union Pacific is the Key to Great Hartman
 System Story that Morgan Secretly Visited Hartman Before
 His Death?
Especial from United Press.)

New York, Sept. 11-J. Pierpont Morgan, Jr., son of the head of the great private banking firm, will, it is believed by many authorities,be elect ed Monday at the special meeting of the directors of the Union Pacific Railroad, to the board, to fill the va cancy and step into the shoes of Ed | ward H. Hartman.
 J. F. Morgan & Company have ac- cumulated sufficient holdings in Union Pacific to warrant Morgan, if he in- sists upon it, in getting g. place on the Union Pacific's board of directors. If | Morgan cares to show the full strength of his hand, he can also have l his son made chairman of the board, it is declared.
 It is believed Harriman's will is so drawn that the Hartman estate must keep the bulk of his security holdings for many years and that whenever it is to be sold, 1t is to go to Morgan, Kuhn, Loeb & Company and the Rockefeller interests. Harriman's will is not to be read until after the fun eral.
 The entrance of the Morgans into Union Pacific would mean far more than the control of the Union Pacific alone.
 The Union Pacific is the key to the
 
 Pacific owns $287,15O95O worth of stock, par value. and s33,s2S.2oO worth of bonds, in other railroads, in that way controlling 2s other corporations, steamship lines. express, water, fruit, and equipment companies, it's hold ings in these concerns having par value of $47,349,25O. It also owns nearly every dollar of the capital stock of the Oregon Short Line and the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company, with a par value of $66, ESQ., 590.
 To lend strength to the report that Morgan will take over the control of the Union Pacific and it's allied lines there comes a story from Arden that last Thursday a week ago, Morgan secretly visited Hartman, who then realized that death was near, and who sought to have his one-time rival take over the roads, to prevent the grab by the financial interests who tried to put through the segregation plan while Hartman was in Europe and "cut melon'' which would have distributed millions of dollars of the assets of the Union Pacific.

TIN CHONG WRITES
A NEWSY LETTER

Tin Chong writes very interesting
letter from Dayton, Ohio. He is study
ing the gentle art of making, repairing
and selling cash registers, and is hav-
ing a very good time. He managed to
get away to see one of the Pittsburg-
Detroit games, and, funnily enough,
touts Detroit to win in his letter. This
was writtee, of course, before the Sc
ries was over.
Tin enjoyed every minute of his voy-
age, and trip across the continent and
everybody he met was astonished to
learn how much a man, with Chinese
name, knew about baseball.
Reading between the lines of his let
ter, he has made a hit everywhere.
Some of the big eastern papers have
given him pleasant notices and pub
lished his stories of the keen baseball
that is played in Hawaii nei. He wants
to be remembered to all his friends
through the columns of The ADVERTISER
He has so many of them that he could
not possibly write to all. Everybody
will join in wishing the good little
sportsman fine time in the East and
owning half the factory before he is
many years older.

MARINES TO PLAY
THE TOWN TEAM

The Marines will play the Town team
at football next Sunday afternoon at
the league grounds. The heavyweights
from Camp Very are in fine trim and
are confident of being able to buck
through the line of the mere cts.
The Townies are keen about the game.
They have been training faithfully and
expect to be able to do better than
they did against the speedy High School
team They will certainly have to go
some if they can make any impression
on that massive line of big marines.
Sergeant Camp, manager of the Ma
rine team, writes to say that his bunch
is full of enthusiasm and as fit as he
can get them. The fellows at Camp
Very are as good sportsmen as they
make 'em, and there is nothing but
clean sport in their makeup. Good,
clean football is their motto, and they
can be relied on to STAY by it.

THE MARATHONERS
HARD AT WORK

All the men entered for the Marathon
race on the afternoon of November :
are now in daily, hard training. The
men and their kokuas are as follows:
Tsuknmoto, champion of Hilo, has E
Townsend as manager and Billy Woods
as adviser and trainer: Nigel jackson
has W. Chiffon as manager and trainer
Dial Fahy, Bob Ross as trainer: c. X.
Charlie, II. L. Grace as manager and
trainer; Connie Hayes. Jimmie Crane
as manager and trainer, and Antoine
KaoO, William Simerson as manager and
trainer.
jackson IS training ON the road be.
tween Diamond Head and Moanalua and
occasionally at Kapiolani Park. His
time running, however, is done on the
league park track at kamoiliih.
Tsukumoto also takes to the road,
Kapiolani Park and the baseball park.
He has adopted the "civiized - Gus
tom of being rubbed down at intervals.
and, incidentally but important. has
adopted the regular Marathon shoe. He
has improved his gait and style of run
ming, and now gets over ground with
less edOfC ana STRAIN.
Dal Fahy trains at the baseball
grounds under the watchful eve of Bob
Ross, an athlete of the old school. Fahy
has way of making every movement
count, which is very desirable in long
run.
G. X. Charlie runs from ten to fifteen
miles every day, using Kaimuki as his
training preserves. He is in fine form
already, and Is training very conscien-
tiously. Howard Grace is taking care
of him, and the indications are that
Kaimuki CHARLIE win be there at the
finish.
Connie Hayes runs to Kaneohe and
back, claiming to make the trip every
day, rain or shine. He is accompanied
on these long jaunts by his trainer
Jimmy Crane, whose ''long suit is dis
tance runs. Connie Hayes is a we'll
built, hardy runner, with lots of grit
and gameness, and will make the other
| five know they have been in a Mara
thon race before they get through will
it.
Antoine Kaoo, better known as "tht
Waialua horse,'' has been conditioning
| himself for quite awhile, in expectation
of another race, and is in the pink OF
condition. He runs from ten to ffteer
miles daily around Thomas Square
never changing his stride Or gait.
1t is now calculated that three mer
| are certain to finish the full Marathon
distance, with a good chance that al
| will make it. The three certainties are
| Jackson, Tsukumoto, and Kaoo, will

PRELIM|NAR|ES
iRE ARRANGED
CoyIe to Meet Limey Richards
and Terry to Box With
Franklin.

Reilly VS.. Cullen, for the lightweight
championship of the Hawaiian Islands;
fifteen rounds at 1873 pounds. Kid
Franklin of San Francisco VS.. Kid Ter
~ of L. 5. S. Iroquois, six rounds at
128 pounds, and Coyle, a new marine
arrival from San Francisco, VS.. Limey
Richards, of Camp Very, four rounds
at the middleweight limit of 15S
pounds.
That is the program to be pulled
off at Aloha Park on Saturday night.
It was previously arranged to have but
one preliminary and that a ten-round
go between Terry and Sarconi, but the
latter suffered an injury which prevent
ed his appearing in the ring and SO
impresarlo Jack Scully arranged these
two other goes instead.
Both preliminaries should be good
ones. This man Coyle looks like a
clever boxer and everybody knows
what a whirlwind that good Limey is
when it comes to handing out the hay
makers. That four-round go should be
good one.
Franklin, who put up an excellent
exhibition recently without a moment 8
training, has been getting himself in
condition and should be able to make
it hard for Terry. The latter is in
the finest kind of shape as he has been
working with Cullen every day and
also going out on the road. The six
round go between these two makes a
noise like being good.
No More Boxing.
Reilly did his last boxing yesterday.
Only the old razor edge kid, Dial Fahy,
turned up to box with him but the two
put up a remarkably fast bout. After
Bob Ross had called time at the end
of the last round both men refused to
quit and kept at it. Reilly was set
on getting side view of the razor
and Fahy wanted to knock Reilly down.
Neither one succeeded, they were sepa-
rated by six husky marines who told
them to go and change their clothes
and not try to hit each other, it was
too impossible
Cullen to Rest Tomorrow.
Cullen was also hard at work at the
Orpheum. He viii probably box a
little this afternoon but will take an
almost complete rest tomorrow. Terry
was there to mill with him again as
usual yesterday and both lads looked
like excellent condition. Terry has
taken on few lunches from the San
Francisco lad and there may be some
