The American league and its rapid
growth are held up as fine precedents
in talking a third affair. but conditions
now are totally different than when
the American came into being. Al
that time baseball was controlled by
the National league, which played
both ends against the middle and
wasn't overly generous in its treat
ment of players. No fancy salaries
were handed out and the players fig-
ured very insignihcantly in the consid-
Grafton OF the club owners.
Today the player has equal rights
with the magnate before the National
Commission. Even the much discuss
ed rule which allows only one man
10 be drafted each season for Glass A
league clubs works little hardship on
the players, for ii a man has ability
much beyond the league In which he
works he is gobbled up by purchase,
such large sums being offered that the
minor league magnate cannot AFFORD
to hold the man longer.
There is no general unrest among
the men engaged in the national game
On the other hand. most OF them feel
very kindly disposed towards the mag
mates who have treated them with

IMMIGRATION TIDE
is RISING AGAIN

WASHINGTON, January 2s.-If the
ratio of immigration for the first six
months of the fiscal year 1910 is kept
up the total for the year will exceed
that for 1900, when 751, 1856 aliens ar
rived on American ships to make their
homes. During the six months of the
current year the arrivals were 422,9S2,
of which S6,7l1 arrived during Decem.
Der. Italians predominated in the i'm.
migration for the six months, number
ing 70,S07.
More than $9O,OO0,OO0 worth of
Americans were exported to Canada
last year. That, at least, is the effect
of emigration from the United States
to Canada in 1909, according to the
report of Consul Harry A. Conant of
Windsor, Ont.
The total number of immigrants from
this country for the year was 90,14s,
and the Canadian immigration commits.

wealth of these American settlers was
$1,000.

CHANCES GOOD
FOR amendments
HaWaii'S Bill Expected to Pass
Senate Soon-No Trouble
in House.

Governor Frear states that he expects
the United States senate to act in a
short time on Hawaii's bill to amend
the Organic Act.
The bill was favorably reported by
the committee to which it was referred,
but Senator Clark wanted to know a
few things about one feature of the
bill, and it was therefore deferred. Sen
ator Clark, it is understood, is now
satisfied with the bill as introduced, it
has been called up and it is not thought
that there will be any opposition to it's
passage in the senate.
In the house the bill is still in the
hands of the subcommittee, which is
expected to report it favorably to the
full committee, with, perhaps, a few
minor amendments. 1t will probably
take little longer to get the bill
through the full committee and there
may be few amendments made, but
no serious opposition to the bill is ex-
pected in the house and the chances
of its becoming law this session are
thought to be very good.

OCEANIC CASE IN THE COURTS

SAN FRANCISCO, February 15.-
John d. Spreckels was to have given
testimony before Judge Murasky yes
terday morning in the case of Rudolph
and Claus A. Spreckels against the
Oceanic Steamship Company ct al, in
which John d. Spreckels and some of
his associates are charged with hav-
ing conspired to depreciate the price
Of Oceanic bonds in the open market.
But he was not there, and his attor-
ney, w. l. Brobeck, explained that he
was in San Diego.
''He came here last Wednesday, when
yer, "but found that it had been post
poned. He has more interests in San
Diego than in San Francisco, and it
was not possible for him to remain"
BrObeck also explained that j. J.
engaged in the Conboy trial, and he
asked for week IS continuance. Matt
l. Sullivan, representing Rudolph and
Claus Spreckels, wanted to pro-
reed with the examination of I. w.
Hellman Jr., who was in court; but
it was decided to let the whole mat
ter go over for week.
When this case commenced an at
tempt was made to take the dispositions
of John d. Spreckels and I. w. He'll
man Jr. before notary, but they re-
fused to answer questions, and Judge
Murasky refused to adjudge them
guilty of contempt, inasmuch as the
questions were asked outside of court.
Since the hearing has been trans
ferred to the courtroom it has not
as yet been possible to go on, but ac-
tion is promised for next Monday.

Oahu in Hawaii, is destined to become
the great naval base of the Pacific.
Concerning this there can be no doubt.
1t is unanimously conceded by naval
and military experts that we do not
need a naval base in the Philippines,
but that we must rely upon Hawaii az
our great Pacific Ocean base.
cit will be necessary to make Cor
regidor as nearly impregnable as mod
ern military and engineering skill can
make it and we must-establish supply
station at Subig Bay, but it is upon
Pearl Harbor that we must depend as
our great base.
"The carrying out of this plan will
necessitate the expenditure of an i'm
mense sum of money in Honolulu, in
fact the present appropriations for the
Pearl Harbor work are small in com
parison with the appropriations which
will have to be made in order to carry
out the plans which have been made
for the great Hawaiian naval strong
hold.''

ALL RUSSIANS
ARE IN QUARANTINE

The planters association labor bureau
has come to dead stop in its allot-

to the various sugar plantations, owing
to the quarantine imposed upon the en-
tire lot by the quarantine officials. The
labor bureau representatives were in
the act of hearing from the men and
women as to where they wanted to 90
when measles and diphtheria broke out.
Mr. Rabbit states that there was no
statement made as to just where they
wanted to go, as the majority of them

over in about week and by that time
he is of the opinion that the immigrants
will be in readiness to proceed with
the allotment and that there will be
no trouble attached to it.
