UNCLE SAM WILL
PROSECUTE BAKER
CrOcker and Other Bankers Offer TO
Make Good Al DefalcaHOns,
But No Use.

San Francisco, March 15.-That the
United States government will press
prosecution Of Charles +. Baker, de-
faulting cashier Of the Cr0cker Ma
tional bank, despite any attitude of the
bank officials, that they would rather
cover the shortage, and let the matter
rest; that investigation now shows at
least $l97 1000 taken by Baker, and that
National Bank Examiner II. N. Morris
is now conducting a probe to ascer-
tain the exact amount, were assertions
made today by United States District
Attorney McNab.
McNabs' declarations as to what
would be done followed a statement
Of j. j. Pagan, vice-president Of the
Crocker bank, In which he declared
that the estimates of a shortage of al
most 100000 were false, and gave in
timation that the bank officials, be-
cause of Bakers long service would be
more than willing not to prosecute.
Baker is going to be prosecuted" /"
declared McNab. III he were a poor
man there would be no question as to
his prosecution, and because his pow
erful friends would like to drop the
matter, is no reason why the govern
ment should not press the case. Be
sides there is a question as to respon-
sibility Of maintaining the integrity Of
national banks"
Pagan today stated that Mr.. Crocker
himself would willingly give his check
for the shortage, II II would relieve
Baker, because Of Bakers is years of
service. He declared that the short
age would not reach as high as esti-
mated, and said that the bank itself Is
auditing Bakers books, and not Ma
tional Bank Examiner Morris.
Baker today is reported to be out Of
danger, although still confined TO bed
in his home near Oakland.

away with the big end of AS score in
the contest between the Indians and
Willamette university Saturday after
noon.
The rains of the past week had made
it impossible to practice on the newly
filled diamond and the varsity boys
were somewhat handicapped on account
of this fact.
Although this was the first game Of
the season, the teams both showed old
style form and at times the fans were
treated to exhibitions Of first class
ball.

held the box for four innings, put the
benders over in his usual form and

He was followed by Burr Tatro, His
offerings were well controlled also and
the horse hide seldom strayed outside
the infield during the entire game.
The Chemawa twirler showed excep.
tional merit both in speed and in his
ability to "put something on the ball. +"
Willametet presented somewhat
different lineup from that exhibited
last year. Steelhammer and Drake, the
old battery, were back in their places,
Captain Paul Homan held down the
first sack, Gates who was a member Of

third sack was covered by McRae, the
veteran player Of the squad, The
p laces in the garden were assigned to
