league in baV tlne Ward has fallen down greatly in his batting and the high average of 381 that he had when lie left the league is being rapidly decreased carrou Has not played with much life recently Of course it is quite discouraging to have to leave the Pittsburg national League team and play in a minor league dob still he has been accustomed to playing in tall end dnbs and should not make it appear that he is so badly affected The Oakland club or at least the principal nlayersin it are not showing the Jlie they should and if they continue to play carelessly tbe crowds will continue to diminish II the Oaklands do not play better ball this week agslnst the San Franciscos than ther did in the first games last week against tbe Sacramentos there will be some very disgusted crowds The programme for the series with the Portland Club has not been arranged yet The schedule will begin with a game on Thanksgiving day and will not end until alter hew Tears In all probability there will be no Eastern clubs in California this winter The managers wanted to gobble the receipts and even tuen refused to bring oat full clubs They could not get the stars to come and would only bring picked up nines to play 1n the uniforms of tbe leading clubs California has been fooled too often by scheming ballplayers who wanted to come to California on a Junket at the expense of Callfornianv There are Just four more weeks of the California League baseball season Each dab has eighteen more games to play The Sacramentos are virtually out of tbe race Unlets they can make a Boston finish ana win nearlyeTery game andhave both San Jose and San Francisco lose more than they are likely to the Mavericks cannot win The club has however done remarkably well under its many troubles Considerable comment has been aroused by the playing of Borcnerg Hoston Parrott Shea and others of the Padfio Northwest League The claim has been made that it was illegal to play tnese men and that a games in which they participated could be thrown out This la not so unless the captain of the opposing team objected to the players before the game commenced hell the pitcher who made his appearance yesterday with the Oaklanda Is the forty ninth man to play with that dab this season He was recently with the Pacific Nortnwest League and two years ago played witn tbe Athletics of Pniiadelnhia of the Amercian As sodatlon Louis Lange recently from the Northwest will make bis appearance this week behind the bat for Oakland He lathe fiftieth man to play for the dab this season From what baa been teen here thePadfie Northwest League pitchers have more speed than those ot tbe California League Hunky Hines is not a gourmand but he dotes on pie and appreciates it all the more when It Is buttered At the beginning of the season he would eat pie only when Oakland won a game bat as this so often deprived him of his favorite dish he changed his vow and thereafter buttered nis me onif wnen tne uax lands won He has not used much butter this season When Oakland does win be eats all the pie he can get and butters it well Then he says he feel hunky Hence his name Parrott greatly resembles Goodenough in personal appearance Parrott belongs to a baseball family so to speak His father and eight of the boys formed a family baseball dub and were good players The mother acted as scorer More triples have been made in the last month by knocking the ball to the right field corner than daring the test of the season Hassamer has been acting as captain of the Sacramentos The honor has swelled his Biz Iniln headTand increased the numbers in his i error column MCHautraps ONeill the soon to be forgottenforgotten osptain of the Colonels showed on Frl dsy how little he really knows about baseball He was first man up in the ninth inning wnen by a base on balls and a wild pitch he got to third The score was 5 to 3 against him Seizing the first opportunity he came rushing home on a sacrifice He got in one more run but it did not tie or win the game whereas if he had stayed at third he would have kept the catcher up behind the bat and somewhat spoiled the effectiveness of the pitcher and had a man got on first JeilL being on third could hare greatly aided him in getting to sec oud Then with a good bass hit both could have come home and would have tied the score Kelll is not as smart as he and Bob inson think he is The Itatlonal League dubs claim to have on their reserved list some players who hare worked all the season with the American Association and who intend to stick by that manly and independent organization The National League has had on its reserve list since 1837 Jim McCormlct the once famous pitcher but for some time a horseman Speaking of reserved players Boscoe Cough lln is not rt served by any elub and is therefore eligible to be signed by any local club that is if some of the managers want something besides base on balls pitchers George Van Hauren and Tom Brown are still held on the leagues reserve list though playing with the association The Boston association team claims the worlds championship as the Boston league team declined to accent the challenge for a decisive series of games The Boston Beds are so far superior to the Boston league team that the latter were forced to resort to a regular schoolboy axense to avoid playing a series ot games in which they would hare been xiUas troosly defeated Phil Knell was the recipient of a banquet given by his bachelor friends at Columbus before he left for California It was his last bachelor dinner Dungan is at his home in Santa Ana On Sunday November 1st a game will be played at the Emeryville grounds lor the benefit of the Sequoia Parlor banner fund The Sequoias champions of tbe Golden West League will

year Jerry is said to have quit dissipating tince his release by the New Vorks realizing that ne could not otherwise get work Denny deserved his hard luck tor his treachery to the brotherhood The PacificTietdSporU devotes half a column to comments on the CnaosiCLXs baseball notes questioning the correctness ot some re marzs concerning coming events so lar tne CHEOKICLE has been right and the Field tporu wrung The latter spoke of the world championship series being played In Sao Francisco and when the CnaostCLB said the idea was preposterous and that no such thing would take place the weekly man waxed wroth but this paper was correct as time has proved Time will prove that the Chbootclk is also correct in the other matter Iu regard to consolidation with the Pacific horthwest leagf it is desirable but impossible It would nS a very good thing for baseball here if San Francisco could loin the ational League or Amer lean Association and be represented by a major ciuo but mat is aiso out oi me question The reason in both cases is the same that of too great distance Time will probably prove to the Taeijle Field Bportt that President Hone will not tolerate gambling by the Central California League dubs if they try to openly play a game for 100 to 500 a side Bill BrowU led the first basemen otitheNa I tional League in fielding His average was ssb All tne stars went aown

Willow street sewer recently He did not notify the Coroner but buried the remains and some people doubt whether they were the mortal parts of a human being The only way ancn matter could get in a sewer would be thxougha manhole and after it had been in awhile It wouldbe very difficult to tell what it was originally John Humphreys a tailor died on Saturday last and will be buried to day He was a native of England and died of dropsy The Alameda Improvement Association refused to recommena to the Southern Pacific Company that the local trains be run through Alameda as far out as Fruit vale because it was not considered the province of an Alameda body to do It ome of the real estate agents in the association opposed it because they feared it would bring cheap property into the market to the detriment of this town It is intended to build bonfires shoot off rockets have bands play and indulge in speechmaking when the Park street bridge is completed and ready for travel Tne East Oakland

returned yesterday Valentine was tbe president of the local molders union when that organization declared a Strike in some of the leading foundries twenty months ago and for a long time conducted tbe strike His return after a prolonged stay in the East hat been looked forward to with considerable interest In labor circles it being expected that he would be able to arrange matters in a manner which would lead to a settlement of the molders strike When seen shortly after he pnt In his appearance at the molders headquarters on Second street yesterday afternoon Valentine had nothing to say as to what he intended to do about the striie In fact he did not care to state whelher or not he would take any action in the mat ter at all 1 have been constantly traveling since Ilett this city said her and my duties as an organizer of unions hare kept me very busy 1 am here because in the nrst place 1 have instructions from neadquar ters to visit every section of the Pacific coast in the interest of

finally said and I may or may not have something to say later on The almost unavoidable organization of a new union of boot and shoemakers is being extensively discussed among those concerned Whether the formation of a new union will necessitate dissolution of the league now In existence or if two rival organizations will be In existence In the near future is still matter of conjecture It is however a fact that the dissatisfaction which has existed for a long time among the shoemakers culminated on Saturday when the employes of the United Work mens Factory met and resolved to remain loyal to their employers rather than obey the mandates of the league A union which has no contror over its own members can never hope to be successful and the sooner it is reorganized the better said one who is well posted on labor matters yesterday Tbe Trades Council with which the league is affiliated is said to be not at all opposed to the dissolution of the league as it stands to day for under its

to the matter of dividends A few months ago Ernest A Denicke the local manager of the San Francisco Breweries limited left the city on a trip to London He was absent for some time and returned about two months ago Daring his absence it was rumored that Mr Denicke had not gone oi his own motion but in response to a pressing request from the English directors who were dissatisfied with his management of the business in this city Noth5ngdeflnite could be learned on Mr Denickes return but the rumor was that there was to be a change in management Yesterday it was learned that the change had been actually made Of one fact there Is no doubt Mr Denicke has resigned Rumor had it yesterday that his resignation was not voluntary but in response to a request of the directors Mr Denicke says that he resigned bvthe advice of his nhvsician who advised him that rest from the cares of business waa necessary to his health but be qualified the statement last night by saying that If the other side made any attacks on him be was prepared to reply It was rumored yesterday that the change In management woald be followed by a redaction in the wages or extension ot the hours of the brewery workmen who naa succeeded in oDtainingconcesslons on those points under Mr Denickes management 1 am no longer the general manager of tne oan ran Cisco nrewenes Limited said Ernest A Denicke yesterday afternoon when seen by a Chbosicxs reporter because 1 have sent in mv resignation and it has been accepted by the board ofi directors Tne cause that prompted me to take this step is that my physician has advised me to retire from active business my health having been bad for some time on account of overworks Jn reply to a suggestion that It was ru mored tnat nis retirement was not altogether voluntary Mr Denicke said I nave nothing to say about this at this time If I am attacked I will make a defensive statement but if any charges are made against me by the other side I want to know first what they are before I answer them Who is the other side was asked The men who are opposed to me Who will be your auocessorf I presume it will be Charles Stone Is that all you have to say on the snblectt Thats all for the present I may have some more to say when 1 find the other side making statements Around town the subject of Denickes resignation was freely discussed especially among those who for a long timo have had business relations with him it was found that the resignation was not much of a surprise to these people in fact it had been expected ever since Denickes return from Earope some four weeks ago The syndicate ft is said has not been a financial success under his management and the men who have their money invested in it wanted a change for that reason Stone when questioned bv a Chbqsiclz reporter last night admitted that he was temporarily in charge of the business of the brewery syndicate but he refused to state how long he had been acting in that capacity or whether he was being inducted into the business methods with a view to becoming permanent manager He also refused to state when Mr Denickes resignation takes effect or any of the causes which led to the tendering of the resignation He did not know whether Mr Denickes management had been censured by the board of directors at the recent meeting in London or whether the board had asked for the resignation He declined to state why he had been placed In charge of the corporations business and said that in any event the change was a private affair and of no importance to the public Late iastnight it was rumored that one result of the change would be that the National Brewery of which Charles Hansen Is president would be purchased by the syndicate and that when the work of reorganization was completed Mr Hansen would take a prominent part in the local management if he did not become tbe actual local manager Charles Stone being only temporarily in charge pending the work
