Declares WhiteWaSh
Will Lose Prestige

Cal Ewing. president of the San Fran
cisco club If the Pacific Coast League,
arrived in Cincinnati the other day and
gave out this interview:
"lf the National League whitcwashes
,Fogel and passes up this important mat
ter, 1t will lose vast amount of pres
liEc out our way and will injure the
game tremendously. The unanimous
comment of our Western press and pub
lie Is that this affairs has gone too far
Tor any halfway measures or the let
ting down easily of any one who makes
fairness OF the national sport
THE stand taken ON the coast Is that
GONE one must get out Of the National
League or there will be a severe re-
nuction In the support given to the
game all over the United States. II
Fogel can prove the charges he has
made then President Lynch and the
umpires involved should he fired with
out delay. If he cannot furnish proof
he should h" barred from the councils
OF the league without ceremony. A
sport which has thriyed on cleanliness
and honesty cannot afford to he
smirched at this late day. The cry
im California Is. If the umpires are
guilty get rid of them. and II Fogel
Is wrong In his charges make an cX-
ample of him.
Ewing made these comments after a
long talk with August Hermann, owner
OF the Cincinnati club, and chairman of
the National Commission.

A GREAT MEETING.

San Francisco has just had the
greatest meeting Of club women that
ever assembled. There were many
special trains for the occasion, one
of which crossed the continent from
New York, and after the big meet
ing, went up the coast and returned
over the Canadian Pacific. It was
"a gliding palace, and the service
cost these women $4,000 for trip.
In many Of the cities where they
stop they are entertained and taken
around In sightseeing cars and autos,
and treated like the queens that they
are.
Many women stay at home too close
and perhsps as many more 60 around
too much. It appears that at least
one woman attending, the big conven-
ton had been in the habit of stay
ing at home SO closely that she
thought nobody else could take care
Of things, and probably had to be
coaxed to take the trip. Her hus-
band probably assured her that they
would get along very well, and that
she needed the trip. Anyhow this
telegram was sent in care of the
secretary Of the convention, and was
important" The lady was
not to be found, so they opened it
in the effort to solve the mystery.
