This score tells only In part how near the Browns came to being- shut out this afternoon at Oak Park. Cy-Toung.- No. 2. lie who .deserted Mike .Fisher lor McClos key"s team, because he found too many boozefighters at Stockton, and begged ' Usher to forgive him and take him back again Into the Senatorial fold, certainly pitched himself back Into the hearts of the fans whom he deserted. Eigle, who admin istered the benders for the frowns, on the other hand received a severe drubbing. II was touched up for 12 hits, but not more than five of them should hare count ed. Three of tbe 12 got past Jar Andrews, And two others counted because Umpire Xevy was stargazing and did not see the play. Game Loat In the Sixth. Yesterday the Browns lost the game In the fourth Inning. Today they let go their grip In the sixth chapter. Up to this time the game was a superb pltcbers battle. Engle had decidedly the best of the argu ment. Three hits had been made off his delivery, and the teams behind him took part in three double plays. Never, accord ing to the best-Informed fan In Sacra mento, did a ball team pet up such a splendid exhibition of fielding as did the Browns up to the sixth canto. But the hands on the clock of hard luck reached the striking hour, and with the sounding of Its chimes rang out the death knell to any possible chances of the Browns win ning. Up to this time Engle had sent the Senators back to their bench In the glar ing sun In funereal order. Catcher Graham was first up, and was an easy out to Nadeau. Young, the prodigal, popped one high up In the air. Jay Andrews or Engle should have caught the ball. But the signals got crossed with Mlko Fisher's great desire to win. and Harlow was called on to catch tbe fly. He was back too far when he got the signal, and he did nothing more than top the ball with the end of his catching glove. Ot course. Young scampered to first. Backstop Har low was tagged with An error, which. If the rules permitted, 'should count against the men who did tbe Vicious bit ot coach ing. Jay Andrews got his hands on Doyle's hard' hit, but failed to halt Its flight. "McLaughlin singled In the same direction, and the ball gave both Andrews and Zinssar the merry ha, ha. and but for Nadeau's beautiful throw. Young would have scored. He might as well have done so. for Engle walked Egan, and the gift forced In the first .'run. Townsend pelted a single between third and second that Zinssar fielded to Shaffer In plenty ot time, but Umpire Levy's eyes were on the men on bases, and be denied Portland the out, and. of course the bases were filled. Hogan bunted, and Engle. In throwing to Shaffer, sent the ball low. Hogan was safe, and while Andrews, Anderson, Engle and Shaffer were putting him out at sec ond. Doyle, Mclaughlin and Egan crossed the rubber. In the seventh Inning, after isngie naa been found for three well-placed singles, the fifth race was recorded. Zinssar Saves a Shut-Out. It was Nadeau's second triple-sacker. 0D& & beautiful drive Into light field, by xinsssx mi savea use Browns from shut-out. Nadeau Is without doubt the best left fielder In the League. He Is not only a clean, clever fielder, but he Is fast asa a heavy-sticker. lie Is also quick and fast oa the bases. It has been through his clever playing that the Browns have been Kiose up la the score column. Bohznter Is a sick man, and It will be Utile short of a miracle It he Is able to jplajr far the next ten days. He was not tin toe game today, out he was not missed. for SHnasar who. If he could only handle the Infield as he does the ash. would be a VooOofi-vlayed the game of his life. Ho (fcart his little finger painfully during the 'practice, but this did not Interfere with 1D Play. Not onlr was he Instrumental fta saving the Browns from a shut-out, but b played all over the Infield, and played ran errorless game, his first since the sea rton opened. Out of the three chances and the five assists he had. he accepted them (vrtthout a skip or a break. Then to crown Ins good work he pulled oft a doublft-nlay ln the last Inning that was eensataensX Townsead drove one In hi t-r4tnr - high that he had to almost take a ladder to reach. He pulled It down, though, and Doyle, who was deterxlnsd to pilfer third on the play, was rua down by the fieet- locTsa aaiasear. sicr-unarro. . AD. IL 33. 68. PO. A. E. ixryie, c.

BOWLES FOR S11W. Thirty-four Head Sent Under the Hammer for S81SO, an Average ot S230 Each. Mack Mack, one of the peatest appear ing horses that has stepped into the track at the Multnomah Fair Association's grounds, drew tbe top price at yesterday's selling- The bay gelding went to' J. R. Bowles, ot Portland, at 21150. Mr. Bowles paid the top price the- day before for San Toy. the 3-year-old chestnut filly that Is declared by horsemen to be one of the fastest pacers In the state. Mack Mack has a trotting record of 2il5H. and Is "one of the gam est performers that ever stepped down, a -track- Yesterday's selling went away over the record ot the previous day on prices, paid. For Instance, William C who was owned by Chris Simpson, of Portland, also the owner of Mack Mack, went at 1(10, after the most spirited. kind of bidding. W. O. Trine, a trainer at the Salem fair grounds. and N. K. West, of La Grande, caught the price of William C. at tie, and they sent it up to "the figure where the bay stallion went to Mr. West at 110 leaps. There was no uncertainty In their otter-1 1 logs, and the fight between the two fori the horse was so fast It gave no one else I a chance to get Into the bidding. Fred Brooker. of North Yakima, will load Mark Hanna onto his car and send the well-known stallion over Into the Irri gation district ot Washington. Mark Han na has a record bt 22U. and beat Mack Mack at Everett last season. Immediate ly thereafter Mark Hanna had the bad grace to Injure himself, and he was out of It for the remainder of the season. There Is a pretty story back of the sale of Joe Caution to George Chandler, ot Baker City. Or. Mr. Chandler came to Portland looking for a safe horse for his daughter. Joe Caution Is a 5-year-old chestnut gelding that haa never been trained for speed, but who has cut out a 3K gait under his present condition While Mr. Chandler was looking about the city for a horse, he saw Caution driven by his owner, Mrs. Sarah Marhar. of Port land, over a box or other obstruction In the street. The gelding was stepping a pretty good gait at the time, but as the carriage toppled over the obstruction he stopped In his tracks. Whereupon Mr. Chandler went out after the horse. Mrs. Marhar was offered 1275 for her horse during the morning, but sent blm to the block Instead of taking the money. As a result. Joe Caution will go back to Baker City tagged at 3210. A. T. Van de Vanter, whose string Is to be sent under the hammer today, picked up BUI Frailer, a handsome black gelding, with a 2:11 record. It Is the intention of Mr. Van de Vanter to use the horse as a roadster. He picked him up when the price had been forced up to SXS, paying one of the highest prices of the week for a roadster. If J. R. Bowles uses San Toy for a roadhorse. the record ot paying the highest price will belong to him. but as San Toy was sold as a trackhorse, and Bill Frailer as a roadster. Mr. Van de Vanter"s price probably 'should be the one to stand. Nellie Coovert and Ned Thome landed in the S4C0 class, with the price laid down on them In even century notes.. Both horses .went to Portland buyers. There were 34 head sold yesterday, bringing a total of 3S120, or an average ot 2239 apiece. This runs the total for the sale up to 314.K5. and lifts the average per head from 3147, where It stood yester day, up to 3190. There are over CO horses In the stables at tbe Multnomah fair grounds, which, will be sent under the hammer today. On the list are some of the prettiest and most consistent performers that have followed the Northwest racing circuit, as wen as roadsters. The string Senator A. T. Van de Vanter has sent down from Seattle Is included In the number that Is to be sold today. His horses will probably bo reached about noon, or possibly earlier. Among the horses to go today Is Path' mark, who has probably won more money than any other horse In the Northwest. Pathmark has always been up among the money class, when the bunch went under the wire, and tbe horse has poked his nose In front as often as he has followed In the procession past the stand. The Tongue estate's horses were sold off early yesterday, a change In plans result Ing In the managers' failure to .avail them selves of the reserve numbers. The rest of the day's offerings were of a miscel laneous character, coming from con signees all over the Northwest. For in stance, the handsome Charles E. Ladd pair was bid In. and a pretty black team owned by G. A. Westgate was turned over to a Vancouver, B. C., buyer. The list of yesterday's buyers, as well as sellers, was more representative of the entire Northwest than the day before. Al most all of the centers where good horse flesh Is admired were represented in the buying. The following list shows the horses sold: Remainder of consignment of estate of Thomas H.

LUCAS MOVES TO TACOittA PRKSIDEST OF P. X. LEAGUE CUAXGES HIS HB-.D QUARTERS. He Wants to Get on the Firing Line, He Says Dugdale and Ills Seattle Parle President: W. H. Lucas, of the Pacific National League, will move his headquar ters from Spokane to Tacoma about May L Tbe move is to be made by Mr. Lucas for the purpose of getting- closer to the center of the baseball circuit. Tbe League's expansion to Include Los An geles and San Francisco leaves Mr. Lu cas' present residence .at Spokane In one comer ot the circuit and rather Incon venient for a man who Is liable to be called at any time to visit any city In the League. Mr. Lucas, who Is stopping at the Port land Hotel, mads the announcement last night that he Intended to. make the change. There have been a number ot rumors afloat concerning the possible change for several weeks, but up to the present no confirmation of the story has been had. The president of the League Is at work upon the schedule for the baseball season. This Is practically completed, and copies of It may be sent out within a cay or two. The schedule Is not to become public prop erty until Sunday, though at the meeting of League members held In Tacoma general qutllne was given. This showed the dates of opening and the number of games" to be played In each city. Nothing further will be shown until the schedule Is published simultaneously all over the circuit. It Is the Intention of President Lucas to spend much of his time on the road dur ing the coming Summer. He Intends to see the performance of the different teams as often as possible, and to keep a closo check upon the work of his umpires. More over, he Intends to. become thoroughly fa miliar with the situation In each city. "Tbe expansion of the League makes it necessary for me to keep going pretty much," explained Mr. Lucas last Jilght. It Is necessary that I should keep In close touch with affairs, and to this Cnd I In tent to visit each city In the League as often as possible. At any time there Is apt to arise a question that the president of the League has to decide, and often a personal visit to the city where the point or appeal Is raised becomes necessary. Jn order to lose no time and to accomplish the best results. the president must be located where he can respond immediately to such calls. 'we Intend to give the public irood base ball this year, and to do so everybody in tee League must work In harmony. This Is already assured, and I expect one of the best seasons we have ever had. SIOXEY TO CARRY O.V THE FIGHT. So Says Syd Hart, of the Frisco P, . L. Team. Syd Hart, a brother of Harry A. Hart. president of the San Francisco National baseball club, and a stockholder In the or ganization, is at the Portland on a busi ness trip. He expects to leave within a day cr two for San Francisco. "Every report from Manager McCloskey Indicates that the San Francisco team this year Is going to be one of the strongest In tne League." nr. Hart said last night. "We did not place any restrictions upon Aiccioskey when we told him to gather a team. XX'e simply sent him East to get good men. and I believe he has succeeded. I am confldent-the team we will have will be much stronger than the rival organ ization, and that we will give the people a oeuer quality ot baseDaiL We realize the fight we are up against. It Is a war In which quality will win. and we are prepared' to give the people quality. we win nave invested 13.030 before tbe gates are opened for the first game, and our expenses during the year are going to be heavy, but we went into this thing with our eyes open. We knew we would have to spend money, and we expected we should lose money during the present year. But we are In this fight to win out a fight with organized baseball, and we win do it. "There have been several stories circu lated to the effect that we had been offer- lng stock for sale, and natural Inferences were drawn from this story. Now there Is nothing to such reports. We have bad all kinds of offers from prominent busl ness men of San Francisco to contribute or to buy stock, but my brother has given the uniform answer that we had no stock for sale. Five ot us are interested In the team, and propose to carry It through. "The reception San Francisco has been giving us has been flattering. There have been all kinds of assurances ot support through patronage, and tbe baseball fans tell us they will give us the heartiest kind of a welcome. I do not think there Is any question but that the League will be pop ular In San Francisco. What the people want is a good clas3 of sport, and that Is what we Intend to give them. "The San Francisco baseball patron Is a rooter. He likes tbe game. Just as San Francisco likes all kinds of sport. The baseball public is entirely fair In Its sup port ot all teams. The visitors are always accorded fair treatment, and a good play by a rival team is as thoroughly appreclat ed as one by the home talent. "I think the people of San Francisco are going to Mfce HcCloakey: They arrow him ' well enough now bj reputation, but they have not' had any ocrsonal aeaualntanea ' with hta. "Medoskey Is one of those kind of men who are always fighting hard for victory. He la out on the baselines rooting for his team and coaching them to victory. He Is a good, steady man to have la the game, always working and steadying his team mates. That is just the kind of a man the San Francisco public-likes. "The names, ot the members ot the San Francisco team, so far as It has been chosen, have been given out. There are one or two exceptions of the names of men whose names It would not be advis able to- give at present. One, for Instance'. Is a pitcher whose release we haa 'to sr- range ror rrom an Eastern club. But the public will know within a few days Just what kind of a team we will have on the field. DUGDALE TO KEEP HIS PARK. Seattle Man. Will nave Same Grounds Tails Year. E. Dugdale. nresldent of the Seattle baseball club, has notified Portland base- oau fans that he haa won a victory over the Seattle Electric Company Jn his suit for an Injunction to restrain the company from depriving him of the use ot .the Y. M. C A. Park, in that city. The messages from the rotund Seattle magnate have been of a particularly Joyous character. Alter a hearing that lasted all dav. Judge Tallman.

Dickinson, formerly general man. ager for the Seattle Electric Company, tes tinea in Dugdale s behalf. The opposl tlon baseball owners were Interested with the Seattle Electric Company In defending tne suit, since they held themselves to be damaged by a decision favorable to Dug. dale.

The calendar In Judge Tallman's Court Is said to be so crowded that the case could not come up on Its merits prior to June L and If Dugdale resorted to dilatory tactics, tee case might even be continued longer. In any event, be will begin the season at his old park. Among officials of the Pacific National League there. Is a feeling that the electric company will not push the case further.

HALLENGERi A FLYER SHAMROCK III STILL SHOWS HEELS TO SHAMROCK. L "I. Leads Old Yacbt. on Every Tack In Three Trial- Runs In Fresh. Breeze OSt Weymouth. WEYMOUTH. England. April S. With club topsails set la a good 12 to lt-knot breeze off shore, promising fast racing, and a thorough test both of epced and gear. Shamrock III and Shamrock I started today off down the wind for a lee ward and windward trial. Shamrock III was a good length ahead as the .boats were sent off. She gathered way faster and was off with double that lead before the older boat had fairly started. Booms were run off and Shamrock I drew Into the wake ot the cup challenger, getting between her and the w"nd. This advan tage enabled the old boat to araw up somewhat' but the blanketing did not last and the challenger opened away fast and ran In such fashion as helped to dis pel doubts as to her speed when oil the wind. When the boats were three-quarters on the wav to the Shambles lightship, the wind drew more westerly and Shamrock ill had to run a course considerably more to the westward, throwing her astern as they luffed for the Shambles. Shamrock led around the ligntsmp. ine umes were: Shamrock L 10:4o-!; Shamrock in. 10:45 -28. Sheets were all home as they came on the wind and the challenger gaining fast and a trifle freer went right past and to leeward of the older boat before they had gone a mile to windward. After holding this tack for 20 minutes Shamrock III came about and passed wide across the bows ot Shamrock I, and taking up a po sition ahead and wide to windward, point ing higher and salting faster she gained on every mile. Tbe freshening wind caused some sea as the .boats beat back, but the challenger stood up well to the wind and took tbe seas easily. She again crossed the bows of Shamrock I as they beat Into the bay. The times as they turned the Erin at the finish of the flrst round were: Shamrock HI, ShamrocK. I. U:-50L The challenger gained exactly two min utes on a seven-mile beat to windward. As the two yachts rounded the Erin, spinnakers were set for the next ran to the Shambled, smarter wora on ooara Shamrock. I enabled her to make up 20 seconds of lost ground. They made fairly level racing down tbe wind, the challenger not gaining appreciably In the flrst couple ot miles. The wind held fresh and fairly steady, allowing an honest trial of speed. Both boats were equally servea oy tne wind and sailing practically in the some water It took a little over 50 minutes to run the seven, miles, and the boats turned the Shambles on the second round as follows: Shamrock. HI. 12:42:27; Shamrock I. 12:14-57. . All sheets were brought aboard again and the boats headed home looking as though with the breeze more westerly they might fetch through. The challenger gradually Increased the gap. The yachts trimmed In as close as they could ana finding a light steady breeze, both made short work of the Journey, doing about 12 knots. Shamrock HI pulled ahead the whole time, gaining fully three minutes from mark to mark. The yachts finished the second round as follows: Shamrock HI. 1-23:35; Shamrock 1. 1:23:5s. Tbe boats were then sent off on another spinnaker run seaward. Shamrock III. which had a snort leaa in starting, widened the gap. About a mile from the Shambles the sDlnnakers were taken in and the two boats reached for the mark, which was turned as follows: Shamrock III,' -2-29:067 Shamrock I, 2:20U7. This was a gain ot about a minute for tbe new yacht in the seven miles. A couple of long- tacks brought them home. Jib topsails were set- and the challenger rapidly opened out a, long lead, seemingly being well suited for the fresh ening wines, rne times at tne tlnlsn of the second race were: Shamrock IH, 3:23:10; Shamrock I, 3-33:13. Tbe new boat had thus beaten Sham rock I four minutes over the last seven miles turn to windward. The trials were regarded by experts as showing that Shamrock III Is markedly superior to tbe old boat In fresher weather and more open water. In. running off the wind in a light breeze Shamrock I was only some eeconds a mllo slow, but on the wind tbe challenger quite outclassed her. Designer Xvatson, In an Interview this afternoon, said he certainly did not llko tbe challenger on her first run to leeward today, but her after performances ho thought made ample amends. Her wind ward work was already up to his best expectation, and he looked for further improvement. Satlmaker Ratsey fenced the questions of the Interviewer, but admitted that the challenge r"s performances were a tale ot a very different kind to that written by Shamrock H. It haa been arranged. If the conditions suit, to send the yachts tomorrow over ft measured America's cup course, 15 miles to leeward and return.
