Sid Lodge was suspended BY Mana
ger sullivan yesterday and the sus-
pension will hold indefinitely, unless
the local managemcnt changes Its pres
ent views. Lodge decided that he did
not want to play professional ball any
more, and has accepted n position with

the park yesterday, instead of getting
his release. he was notified of his sus-
pension. which means that his salary
is tied up AMI several other inconveni-
ences.
Lodge Ia Washington boy and an
alumnus of Richmond College. He
caught on the college team for two
years. and made quite a reputation for
himaelf in Washington as a backstop
on some OF the fast semi-pro teams in
that city. Since his arrival here he has

INLAND EMPIRE TAKES
WOOL FROM UMAT|LLA
CAPTAIN SEES UMATILIIA
BIG DISTRIBUTIVE POINT
Country Tributary to Town Could Get
Freight Quicker by River Route
Than Any Other Way and at a
Cheaper rate.

Bringing the first shipment of
secured wool that has been shipped
/ to Boston since the present arrange
ment between the Open River Trans
portation company and the Ameri-
can-Hawaiian Steamship company,
the steamer Inland Empire will leave
Cmatilla this morning, says the Port
land Journal
Captain w. S. Buchanan, who has
just returned from a trip to Umatilla
and other points on the upper Co.
lumbia river, said yesterday that the
shipment. which consists of about 200
sacks Of secured wool was brought
in from Echc to Umatilla for ship
ment by way Of the water route to
the east In add tion to being the
first secured wool that has been ship
ped out Of that part Of the country,
it Is also the first to be moved from
The upper river since the new rate
on eastern shipments over the Am
erlcan-Hawaiian line became cffec-
tive. The rate which went into cf-
feet on June l is q reduction Of about
10 cents over the old rate.
In his trip Captain Buchanan went
from Umatilla to Pendleton and h.
states that it was a wonderful coun-
try through which he passed, the peo-
pie seeming very prosperous ana, as
he expressed it, "eyery man has gold
in his pockets"
"UmatilIa will ultimately be the dis
tributng point for the Inland EN-
plre, through the water route from
Portland" said Captain Buchanan.
There are thirty-fiye towns tribu-
tary 20 Umatilla and l am safe in
saying that that place will be the chief
point from which all water shipments
viii be sent INTO the interior and at
tn" present time people Of that sec
ton are unanimously in favor Of it,"
Captain Buchanan said that the
people could get their freight quicker
by the river route ana Umaulla than
bv any other mcara and also cheaper.
Ie said that there was difference OIL
from 8 10 - cents in favor of the
water line ia the haul from here.
