SANTA CLARA, Nov. 19.-The cham
pionship of the Amateur athletic
league subleague of Santa Clara
county, which this season practically
means northern California, will be
decided tomorrow afternoon OH the
University of the Pacific grounds here,
when Palo Alto and Santa Clara high
schools come together in what prom
ises to outstrip for fierceness any game
seen here in long while.
With each team playing spectacular
football all season, and with not a
defeat marked against either team, to-
morrow's contest is bound to be a
spirited one.
If the local boys win they will have
to play Lowell high school of San
Francisco for the northern California
championship. Santa Clara tied San
Jose high and the latter won from
Lowell, to 0. so the mission town
high school should give good account
of herself with the San Francisco team
if she gets chance:
A large crowd of rooters will be
present, including delegation of Palo
Alto high school students, who are
coming down to cheer their team on
for the championship. Manager Clay
ton of the Santa Clara squad estimates
than saw the Santa Clara-San Jose
battle a few weeks ago. This was
considered record breaker
The game will be called at 1880 p. m.

McCredie Has
Card to Play
In the Game
Portland Baseball Manager
Says He Yet Hopes to Over
come Adverse Ruling

PORTLAND. Nov. 19.-Judse w. w.
McCredie, owner of the Portland club
in the Pacific Coast league. arrived
here late yesterday from San Francisco.
where he has been attending the meet
ing of that league.
Judge McCredie was inclined to talk
pacifically concerning the refusal of
the Coast league directors to permit
the Northwestern league to place a
team in Portland in 1910. He declared
he is not over anxious to sanction out
law baseball, but could not say posi-
lively what his course would be until
after he had had conference with
David u. Dugdale. manager of the Sc
attic club in the Northwestern league
From casual remarks made by the
Portland magnate it would appear he
considers he still has a card TO play
which may secure entrance of the
Northwestern league into this city. This
may be a protest from Portland against
permitting the former outlaw Califor-
MIA league to play in Sacramento, Oak
land and San Francisco: Judge Nc
Credie said he judged that the stand
taken by those who voted against the
application of the Northwestern league
at the Coast league meeting was in
spired by the action of the Northwest
ern league representatives at the Ma
tional association meeting. the Coast
league directors, according to Judge
McCredie, blaming him for the loss
of the outlaw players, who will be
compelled to stay in the California
league for two or more wears

league. declared himself willing to put
Aberdeen in an outlaw league next year
If Judge w. w. <McCredie will abandon

land, but the sentiment in this city is
strong for outlaw ball unless the Pa

Of the most aggressive. In the six years

Martin Bros. & Co.
In the field at the beginning and steadily
carrying out and sustaining a long es-
tabllshed reputation OF substantial worth
is in brief the position of Martin Bros. &
Co.. This concern took a part in the small
beginning Of the live stock commission
business In South Omaha twenty-three
years ago and has remained to enjoy the
fruits Of the prosperous success in which
it had so important a part in building.
The Martins were far from beginners in
the commission field when South Omaha
began to be a pace on the map, however.
In 1872 the Chicago house Of this company
opened. Both in South Omaha and Chicago
Martin Bros. ave continued in business
without interruption or change of man
agement.
Twenty-three years in South nah has
given this concern a big prestige. A very
considerable portion OF the business Of
Martin Bros. & Co. is connected with the
supplying Of feeder sheep and cattle to
stock farmers and ranchers. This indi-

the cattle business. For more h twenty
years he has been trafficking in steers.
He brought range cattle up in the north

few railroads and long drives to market.
His business has grown up with the devel-
opment Of the cattle industry.
Smith BrOs.' Commission Company
VIII H. Wood, more familiarity known
to his friends as Billy" dropped into
Omaha from Chicago about twelve years
ago and got busy at the Union Stock
Yards in the employ of the Evans-Snider-
Buel Commission company. When, two and
a half years ago, he resigned to take up the
affairs of the South Omaha office Of the
Smith Bros. Commission company his
employers were so convinced that the
business Of the concern was his that they
sold out to him.
Smith Bros. Commission company in
these two and one-half years has assumed
a position of leadership among the COM
mission firms of the Exchange. "Blook A.
as its allotment Of pens in the yards is
called, is a familiar term to the stockmen
in all that territory Of the South Omaha
market. "Forty-two' and it's location is
a matter Of pride with this firm, too. 1t
means a part of their most expeditions
system of handling stock. Shipments are
not long in the hands Of this company's
statesmen before the trans-substantiation
into cold glittering cash in the hand of the
owner is accomplished. A record trans
action OF this kind was made q few months
ago when on receipt Of a shipment of a
train load of sheep in the morning at 8
o'clock, Smith Bros. had the money paid

ness to be handled.
Burke-RicIEIy Company.
The Burke-Rlckly company is one Of the
landmarks among the commission mer-
chants of the Union Stock Yards exchange.
With but slight changes this firm has been
continuously in business in South Omaha
since the beginning OF the live stock In
dustry in thai town. In fact this company
Is among those which made that beginning
an eventual success.
I'VE came down here from the old bridge
yards in 1885," said Charles Burke. the
head Of the firm, looking out from his
office window across the acres OF pens.
THE whole works then was not as big
as that little bunch of pig pens yonder.
The Exchange, as we so proudly called it,
was just a little franz shack on the creek
bank and even the creek has gone now.
Didn't nave room for it in the yards any
more.
Eyes, sir. there has been a lot Of growth
since those days. Why, we used to think
that 1t was a big days work when we sold
a whole five cars Of cattle all to one man.
Now It is not such an extraordinary trans
action when ten or fifteen carloads are
sold in as many minutes. just goes
to show how the business has been grow

erous share of the business of the great
market.
Mr.. Cook eighteen years ago entered the
yards as a salesman in the hog yards. In
six years he had mastered that end Of the
business and went into the cattle yards
where he has continued his activities ever
since, building up a following Of friends
and patrons that mean much to his con-
Germ.
The Great Western sells from 500 to 600
carloads of stock a month and the records
of a days business in this house con-
tains some rather interesting figures.
The Great Western was organized six
years ago. Mr.. Cook was then with the
Mallory Commission company as a sales
man. He had formerly been a member of
the Perrin-Cook company. Nat G. Hous-
ton, sheep salesman with the Great West
ern, was taken into the company at the
time Of organization. G. i. Peterson,
cashier is also a member Of the firm. j.
c Alsworth is hog salesman for the Great
Western.
Laverty Bros.
Twelve years ago the Laverty Brothers
got so good at swapping" up on their
ranch in Valley county that they decided
to come to South Omaha and get into the
commission business. Their judgment has
been indicated by a high degree of sue
cess.
This firm is conspicuously busy, even in
the Stock exchange, where everybody is
busy all the time. They handle a gener-
ousIy general business in both native and
western stock.
This firm is In reality among the early
Corners in. the commission business of
South Omaha's Union Stock yards. The
Laverty Brothers succeeded the firm Of
Savage & Green, which opened an office
almost simultaneously with the beginning
of the yards themselves. In the long es-
Enlistment OF this house 1t has gained
much through a wide and favorable ac-
quaintance with the stockmen Of the coun-
try.
