WATER FRONT NOTES.
Russian Schooner Arrives.
The local fleet was incrDased yes
terday with another arrival of a for
eign vessej, this being the Russian
schooner Uranus, thirty days out
from Seville, Spain, which is in port,
for the purposa of loading a cargo of
lumber. Upon reaching port the
small ocean traveler was released and
upon coming over to the city was
boarded by Inspector Bailey, who was
.on duty yesterday at the barge office.
Other Vessels Released.
Three other vessels were released
from the quarantine station yester
day and the inspector who elected to
remain on duty over Sunday had all
he could do. 'The other vessels re
leased were the Norwegian steamship
Taunton, the Russian bark Tjermai
and the American schooner Anna D.
Heidritter. Another .vessel remained
at quarantine yesterday. This was
the Italian bark San Antonio, which
was towed up to the station at a late
hour Saturday afternoon by the tug
Sea King, which was returning to her
home port from Mobile, to which
point she towed the old barkentine
Success. The Italian vessel will be
released today.
Four Go to Sea.
Four vessels went to sea yesterday,
The Uruguayan bark Port Sonachan
went over the bar, bound for Valen
cia; the British ship Centurion was
towed down the bay, bound for Lon
don, but it was reported had an
chored for the night off the navy yard
because of a change in the wind; the
American schooner Clara Davis start
ed out for Leghorn, Italy, and tho
American schooner Charles W. Miller
went over the bar, towed by the tug
Nellie, for Mobile.
Bunker Steamer Due.
The British steamship Quito, with
cargo, was looked for last evening,
coming for bunker coal. It was re
ported she had left Saturday for
Tensacola, her loading port being
Gulfport, Miss. The steamer had net
showed up at dark, and consignees
and inspector left the dock. She will
be off the bar at an early hour this
morning, it is expected, and win pro
ceed immediately up to the coai
chutes for a supply.
There are quite a number of steam
ers due this week for bunker, several
coming from foreign ports.
There was much activity in the port
this morning and yesterday afternoon
on account four schoonera loaded for
three or four days waiting for the
northerly winds which came last eve
ning. The tugs Dewey, of ,the Ger
man American Lumber Co.; and Nel-
ie of the Aiken Tow Boat and Barge
Co., Pensacola, were busy moving out
the vessels. It is thought that al
though the schooners Elhi M. Willey
and Hugh de Pa yens towed out sev
eral days ago they havo not made
much headway beating.
'
The schooner Seguin' finished tak
ing cargo this morning, which only
leaves the one schooner Prydwen now
loading in this port. , Several other
schooners are expected within the
next few days, when there will be an
other rush for everal days.
The schooner Crescent, out of this
port the latter part of September for
Canary Islands, has put in port
after ninety days put. She arrived at
her destination without very little
damage, except the loss of deck load.
Much apprehension was felt for her
safety, inasmuch as two or three
other larger vessels had lost in the
same territory with the Crescent.

Pensacola may have league base-'
ball next "season by taking over one
of the Cotton States league fran
chises. It is understood that one of
the clubs which did not make a good
showing the past season, nor ,. the
previous year, while not announcing
its desire to unload the franchise,
would, welcome the help of some good,
live baseball town and would relin
quish the berth to said town. Pen
sacola fans, therefore, have their
ears .to the ground, and if certain
plans which have been drawn up,
and which are now being discussed,
are given encouragement, it will mean
torganized ball here during the 1917
season.
There is no definite announcement
to make as yet. It is understood that
shortly there wfll be an offer made
to local baseball enthusiasts, and if
the latter are given the proper en
couragement, it will mean the prpb
able re-establishment of Maxent park
as a ball centre.
. Pensacola's experience in . the Cot
ton States in 1913 is not one of
glorious exploits. It was a bad sea
son for baseball in the south, and that
year, in the latter part, the Cotton
States "blew up," as Manager Ham
ilton, of the Pensacola club that ill
fated season, would say. Now that
the local interest seems to be strong
er, and tnere appears to be more
readiness in co-operation, there is ev
ery reason to believe that a deter-
mined effort to arouse interest m
baseball here would be - encouraged.
A few days ago, a report from New
Orleans stated that Pensacola's prob
able connection with the Cotton
States in the new season was being
discussed in the Crescent City. This1
item was given publicity, and it
served to arouse the local baseball in
terest. Some of those who were in
terested "in Pensacola in the old
"league days"" are ready to aid in
any movement looking to the re
habilitation of Maxent or any other
playing park, and it is expected that
the idea will be taken up and passed
along for what it is worth.
Jim Hamilton, Pensacola's man
ager, is to hold the reins in the North
Carolina circuit this coming season,
and may have the Asheville club. At
least that is the information which
the sporting editor of the Charleston
American has, and this is the way he
discusses it in a late issue:
Hamilton's Latest Venture. '
According to a letter received by
President W. H. Walsh, of the
Charleston Baseball club, yesterday,
James A. Hamilton, who piloted the
Sea Gulls last year, has signed with
the Asheville, North Carolina, league
club. ' The letter giving this item was
received from Mike Finn, the maker
of baseball schedules and scout for
the Detroit American league club.
Just where Mikejrot his dope is not
known, but as no formal announce
ment of the selection of Hamilton by
the North Carolina club has been
made yet, the dope is accepted as un
official.
The Asheville club recently lost its
manager, Jack Corbett, who hooked
on with the Columbia team. Whether
James has been grabbed as Corbett's
successor is unknown officially and
the report of Hamilton's connection
The Journal's "Want Ad
way will get you results.
with the mountain city club" comes
only from Finn. '
Jim is a great pilot and no doubt
can hold his own in the North Caro
lina circuit, if handed the reins. He
first came to Charleston back in
1913, when he took the club over for
the last month of the season and
mad such headway that President
Walsh retained him for the 1914 sea
son. Jim came here from Pensacola,
when the old Cotton States league
blew up, bringing with him LeRue
Kirby and Jim Gudger.
In the 1914 campaign, which was
a split season, the Sea Gulls finished
second in both halves, but as a mat
ter of fact won more games and lost
fewer than any other team in a whole
season. Dividing the season robbed
Hamilton and Charleston of a pen
nant. The next year 1915 President
Walsh and Hamilton could not agree
on terms and Jim hit the trail for the
West, landing with the Cedar Rapids
club of the. Central association, a
class D circuit. The traveling there
was tough for the CHicago man and
he resigned about midseason. During
the off season he and Mr. Walsh man
aged to reach an agreement and
Hamilton came back here last spring.
Charleston fans know the results of
the past race. Jim gave Charleston
a good ball club, just as ne did in
1914, but again could not win.
His contract was for one season
only and this year no effort was made
to get Hamilton here again. In fact
President Walsh decided some time
ago that he would do without Jim in
1917. '
Hamilton is anxious to play in the
Sally this year, , and. for several sea
sons Jacksonville made him an offer
annually. A letter received some time
ago from Jim was to the effect that
he has offers to pilot a club in the
New York State league and also from
a club in the Texas league. He had
not decided then which he would ac
cept, if any.
He is at present at work in a large
department store in Chicago.
DESTROYER
TO D ORLEANS
After remaining in Pensacola for
a week or more, the destroyer Ster
rett cast off lines yesterday and went
down the bay, on her way to New Or
leans, in which port she will join the
destroyers of a specially assigned
squadron, to make a trip up the Mis
sissippi river, chiefly for the purpose
of encouraging navy recruiting.
It is expected that this fleet will
proceed as far north as navigation
permits, remaining some weeks on
the great river, and making long
stops at a number of points."
At New . Orleans the destroyer
Smith has been reported arriving.
The Sterrett was under orders to join
the destroyer Monaghan and Lai
son off Mobile, and the three go into
the Crescent City. .
