by these two @brows" at the end OF til
national #pastine, and it is certainly
their conduct. and take any. radical ste
such an *afrent to the baseball public.
The. act OF rowdyism perpetrated
the elimination of several innings. OF
decisions of Umpire Hldebrand on !
have shown q decided tendency to dog
st in every game since the beginning
OF the week. Cameron. who revels in
insolence whenever the opportunity
presents itself, started the trouble when
he famed out on. a called third strike
the end Of the seventh. The big
ScQtchman turned like a fend on UNI
ptre Ht]debrand and started to brow
beat the indicator man for calling the
strike. Hildebrand was extremely cool
at the time and paid no attention to
Cameron and even overlooked the ruff
1anS actions when he swung his bat
ABOUT as If 10 strike Hide" on the
head WIen Cameron started for his
position at first he went out of his way
60 come BY home plate and renew his
abuse Hfldebrand promptly fined the
fellow So but this seemed to give added
'zest 10. .CameT0n[s abuse and he con-
1inued-to hurl inVestives from first base.
MolyertoR allowed his hoOdlum in
StLncrs, which were so much in evidence
aLthe beginning Of the season, to come
TO the surface and he came charging in
from third base like a mad bun TO take
hand in the affair Wolverton started
in 10 score He}debrand most Vilely and
Hide promptly ordered the oaks
captain out OF the game and TO the
Clubhouse: This was Cameron's grand
opportunity 10 play the brow" again
and he gloried in the opportunity.
Running in from first base. Cameron
uncoEked. q line of talk that would
have made q denizen OF the Barbary
coast blush with shame and Hildebrand-
ald not hesitate TO order Cameron from
the game
For several minutes it looked like
rjpt would be pulled off. The Oakland
PLAYERS docl0ed in to TO the plate from
aAl-s sides and. Hildebrand became the
vortex "a regular whirlpool Of threats
and utilization. During the melee
cameron made q bluff AT striking Hill
aeprald and even went so far as to
place one OF his glass arms across the
umptres neck and draw back with the
otaer hand as if TO strike him. 1t
would haNe. been q sad day for Crabber
cameron II he had ever struck Hide
orand,. as the fans started TO pile out
Of their seats and head for the diamond.
il looked Ike q. long term in. the hospf-
taf or aQweTs. and slow music for the
scot as the crowd was transposed into
an *iHtaraated mob in the twinkling of
an eve
COOL headedness- on the part of sew

JAe trouble going too far and Wolver-
too' and. Cameron were kept from as

bench by a couple of determined look
ing coppers." But this was not enough
trouble for the day. and the two dis
Eraces TO baseball continued to abuse
The umpire from the bench: The game
was stopped and the spectators were
Iorced 70. wait until both men had been
escorted from the grounds.
After the game was over. and while
Umpire -Hildebrand was chatting with
Tommy Burns and the other Austria
liam. sports in the office of the baseball
club, Cameron made his way into the
room and, shouldering- the guests Of the
-nls ma cement aside, shook his finger in
Hildebrand's face and threatened to get
the umpire at Oakland today.
The outrage yesterday was about the
worst that has been pulled on the sport
loving Ians for years and certainly
needs the attention OF the league on
GERS. II happens that President era
I'D walter one Of the principal own
ers Of the Oakland team. is now acting
PRESIDENT. It is 10 be hoped that Mr.
walter for the sake Of clean baseball
on this coast viii not allow any preiu-
dice 10 rule his conduct in this matter.
and viii Ia ke immediate steps to Sc
NerelY punish these two offenders
against the baseball public.
among the spectators At the game
were Tommy Burns, Hugh Mcintosh w
j. Corbett. one Of the best known
sporting editors in Australia, and Bill
Lang, the Australian heavy weight The
men from kangaroo land, with the ex-
ceptiOn OF Burns, were witnessing
their first baseball game and they were
utterly disguised at the actions Of the
Oakland team in attacking Hildebrand.
said Corbett*
7 can. not see how the. American
public will tolerate such raw work at
public exhibition In my country
such men would be ruled out of the
game for life, as no fair follower of
sport Will stand for any such actions
on The part Of those who furnish them
amusement"
Hugh Mcintosh. said:
j have been following sporting
events Of all kinds for the last 90
years ia al parts Of the world and /
don't thlnk~I ever saw such unsports4
ynanlike conduct on the part of men
VINO are paid by the public. I do not
hesitate in saving that such an exhi-
bition in Australia would have led 10
the mobbipg Of the. offenders by the
spectators. There is one thing that
nay people VIII not stand for, and that
IS the batting Of the referee or UNI
-plre in any contest"
outside Of the near roit that the
game produced. the chief feature was
the work Of Harry Sutor. who pitched
for the Seals Sutor was in tip top
form and struck out IL of the Oakland
singers and allowed but. FIVE scat
tered hits, The same teams will face
