Wednesdays game being still unset

An effort is being made to arrange
a game for tomorrow afternoon be-

Keios, and the matter will probably
be decided this afternoon. 1t is be-

to be a first-rate drawing card and
that the service men would turn out
in force to cheer their representa-.

Doutnitt further stated that Thomas

would forfeit 500 to anyone who could
stay fifteen minutes with him on the
mat.
A nice looking young man named
Alton or Alden, from Portland, Ore,
was the sacrifice last night, and after
eight or nine minutes of exhibition

JAPANESE BASEBALL KICKER
FAILS TO BACK HIS CHARGES

! Baseballers were present in force
at the meeting last night in the Office
OF Magnate Chillingworth, called TO-
the purpose of listening to the
charges of dishonesty made against
Umpire Bert Bower by certain Jap
anese and one Nakamura in partic.
ular.
! The meeting was to have starte ID
at 1879 o'clock, but Nakamura failed
to show up and Charlie Chillingworth
4 went after him in person. Mean
while the crowd hung about the post
office awaiting Chillingworth's re-
turn.
1t was quite evident that had Max
amura put in an appearance he would
have been warmly welcomed by the
assembly.
About eight o'clock Chillingworch
returned with the information that he
had failed to locate Nakamura after
due and dilligent search. The latter
had been notified half a dozen times
to be on hand and there is reason to
believe that he did disappearing act
rather than face the music.
The Japanese committee who have
been running the Keio nine were
present and presented Manager
Treadway of the Athletic Park with
the following communication:
I'VE, the committee for Keio base
ball team, wish to inform you the fact
that there was certain rumor alleging
that one of the umpires. who had been
acting as such official in the Keio
special series, also in the Mid-week
series, has said or advised as to the
result of the last Wednesday game,
which may lead to question as to
the honesty of one of the umpires,
and We the committee, feel that per-
son, who is alleged to have said Or
advised certain person, who was in
tending to bet money on the game
should be given an opportunity to
prove himself before the meeting.
"On last Wednesday, while one OF
the committee members, Mr.. Abe, was
passing the front Of the drug store,
corner Aala lane and Beretania street,
he (Abe) was stopped by one MAZDA,
who ran out of that drug store and
told that he (Maida) has heard one
Nakamura was advised that the Chi
nese team would win out. He also
stated that he telephoned to one of
the Japanese newspaper offices ask
ing them to find out from Nakamura
whether there was any truth in the
rumor, and had not received any an
swer from them, so Abe and MAZDA

telephoned from Chiya store to the
newspaper office, but was informed
through the phone that Nakamura
was not to be found around his place.
Mr.. Abe tried himself to locate Naka-
mura before going to the ground in
order to find out whether there was
any truth in the above rumor, but
Mr.. Abe was unable to locate said
Nakamura.
After the game, we, the commit
tee, namely, Onodera, Ida, Maruyama
and Abe, Immediately went to said
Nakamuras place on Kekaulike street,
found him there and asked him Of
about the rumor. He voluntarily
stated, in the presence of the above
mentioned committee, that previous
to the Wednesday game that he went
to seek Mr.. Bowers advice as to
which team he should put his money
on in order to win.
"He was told that certain party has
already put about three thousand dol
lars ($9,000l on the Chinese team
and he would advice him (Nakamura)
that if he wishes to make any money
to bet on the Chinese team.
I'VE, the committee, did not go to
Nakamura for the purpose of making
any trouble upon any person or park
management, but as the Tumor spread
amongst the excited fans to such ex-
tent that we thought it wise to ac-
quaint ourselves with circumstances
surrounding the said rumor in order
that we may be able to suppress any
trouble that may arise.
I'VE, the committee, wishes further
to be understood that we have no bad
feeling against Mr.. Bower and if pos
sible wishes to avoid this unpleasant
charges against him, but in justice to
the public and to himself wish to find
out the truth"

went home leaving a host of friends
behind. Dick Sullivan's presence here
brought several visiting boxers. There
was Jack CordeE, easy-going and

an individual with characteristics
distinctly opposite. Honolulu has
seldom been more glad to see the
back of a pugilist than it was when
Peterson went back to the Barbary
Coast. Charlie Reilly, frankie Smith,
Spider Welch and Joe Leahy all
fought down here with varying sue

Old race-horses, old fighters; what
memories of the sporting past they
recall, and Honolulu has had lots of
each of them, some of greater and
others of lesser degree.
There was Denver" Ed. Smith,
once a heavyweight championship
possibility who blew in here one fine
day some ten years ago and picked
up little money through match or
two, one of the latter being a farcical
encounter with Sailor Brown who was
so scared at Smiths belligerent ap-
pearance that he had actually to be
held to keep him from running out of
the ring. Then there was Ulysses
Harris, a colored middleweight who
Harris was a fine boxer but was
cursed with a phenomenal yellow
streak which made promoters fight
shy of him. Martin Denny, the Aus
tralian lightweight fingered here for
while, his bout with Armstrong at
the old independence Hall on King
street resulting in a scandal which is
still remembered by members of the
old guard. Tommy Cox, another An
tipodean, boxed here little and was
for a time on the police force. In the
old days if a visiting boxer didn't
start physical culture school he was
given a job as a police officer. This
was a one best bet.

Service fighters we have had ga
lore, Kominsky, Platt, Fink, the
Marine; George Nelson, Soldier Coll,
and Bugler Sarconi. The visiting
warships have introduced to us some
capable scrappers, some of whom are
now doing well as professionals, IF
whom may be mentioned Sam Trim
kle, Phil Schlossberg and "Gunboat'
Smith. Mike Patton, who now claims
Honolulu as his home, went to the
Orient from here and returned with
the heavyweight championship of the
Far East. He is regarded today as
the best referee in the Territory. The
presence of Kid George and Patsy
McKenna was too recent to call for
comment, other than to say it IS
doubtful if such prices were ever
charged in any city in the world for
the privilege of witnessing a go be-
tween such a pair of arrant portland
beaners.

LATE RETURNS CHANGE DEFEAT
INTO VICTORY FOR
SUFFRAGETTES.

SAN FRANCISCO, oct. 12.-Wo-
man suffrage has triumphed in Cali
fornia. Struggling returns late today
wiped out the majority previously rec
corded against the amendment and
since this turn the margin in its ia
vor has increased steadily
Returns early tonight showed: For
the suffrage amendment, l19,0S6;
against, 1l7,4OS; majority for the
amendment. 1873
These figures represent the returns
from 2,7l7 precincts out of the 3,121
IN the state. Virtually all of the re-
naming precincts are in counties
which heretofore have given suffrage
majoritcs.
So overwhelming was the vote for
the initiative referendum and the re-
call, including womans suffrage that
bulletin of the returns was suspend
ed with nearly third Of the precincts
remaining unrcportcd. The final
count taken showed the following;
For the initiye md referendum,

call 1iS,172. against 1920
