Jack Thielman's high-salaried wing: was
In perfect -working order during- that spe
cial matinee held yesterday afternoon at
the Twenty-fourth and Vaughn-street
grounds, and the way he shot his elusive
slants over the pan was so mystifying to
Fisher's Tads that they returned to their
beefsteak and onions runlesn, while the
Browns piled up 11. The Juice which
ic "ds the trolley cars gave out Just about
the time the faithful were casting aside
their business In order to see the game
and not more than half of them were able
to attend. The start of the game was
delayed ten minutes so xthat those who
walked or took another route could reach
the grounds In time to scold Umpire Levy.
And they did scold him, too. The worst
part of it was that he did not deserve it
not yesterday.
Kialer' Vain Dream Fades.
Fisher brought his ball-tossers over
from Seattle and really thought he was
going to take the first game. Honestly he
did, he even went so far as to figure out
his average on Happy Hogan's cult.
Fisher entertained this misguided thought
"until the second Inning, then his dream
collapsed. "While he was dreaming, idly
dreaming, the Browns fell upon "Cute"
Fitzgerald for four bingles. He gave
Nadeau a pass, and stove in Buck Free
man's diaphragm with an inshoot, then
Captain Graham threw the ball to the
score board, and, when the smoke of
battle had cleared, Fred Ely's men were
six runs to the "better." Mlque Fisher sat
with his coat off until this-chapter, but
the frost that fell soon made the Sacra
mento magnate put on his outer garment
and borrow an overcoat from a fan in the
bleachers. When the Browns Jumped out
In the third Inning and chased in another
run, Mlquo abandoned his players with
out comment and sought shelter and!
Tefuge In the grandstand. Fisher knew,
and eo did tho fans, that tho Browns had
put enough toe-weights on Fitzgerald to
anchor him and the rest was easy.
Fred Ely had no intention of halving the
grape fruit with Captain Graham, so he
kept his Brown brigade at the Tads. They
flayed bum ball, but Jake Thlelman kept
shooting the leather down the alley so
fast that the haze in its wake was like
the Emoke in', a shooting gallery. While ho
was doing this, the Senators were blngllng
s rn tinges, but they counted for naught,
'because the Senators slipped around the
diamond as If they were on greased rollers
Instead of spiked brogans. TJhere was
really nothing to the game but the Browns
and from that second inning Sacramento
stood about as much show of winning as
an A'riian diamond hunter in search of a
sparkler In the North Portland dump.
They might as .well have tried to curry
an elephant with a fine-tooth comb, or
empty Columbia Slough with a tin cup,
as try to beat Thlelman, especially when
Fitzgerald was slipping the Browns curves
to their liking.
Only once during the whole engagement
did a Tad get his hoof on third base.
Tils came In the seventh and the locals,
fearing that their lead was not good
eneugh, with the aid of a single and
errors by Townsend and Eagan, plied up
four more runs. In this chapter Francis
singled to left, and Buck Freeman was
fiafe because Townsend failed to heel the
, bag. Holllngsworth was safe on Bagan's
fumble, and Townsend gave Catcher An
derson his life when he tried to stop
jwasan's toes-, with his ears.
Eauan and Torrnsend'H Stnr Play.
The star play came when Eagan whipped
the ball straight on a line with the sun
end Townsend ducke It and the Spauldlng
hied Itself straight into the confines of the
bleachers. A good, loyal fan saw It,
but he waited until the bases -were cleared
before he tossed the ball back Into the
diamond. Even with the locals miles In
the lead, the Sacramentos fought for the
game. The idea of being whitewashed
did not suit them and they tried hard to
sneak in one run, but they failed and
Fisher celebrated his defeat In the luxury
cf an automobile ride. At first Mlque de
clined to take the ride. He was afraid
that. If his players saw him riding in the
' spark" car, a general touching committee
would wait on him. The score:

BLOT UPON CIVILIZATION.
Burke Cockran Sees None Other
Than the Divorce Practice.
NEW YORK, Oct 12. In an address
before the Knights of Columbus, gathered
in Carnegie Hall to celebrate the anni
versary of America's discovery, W.
Bourke Cockran reviewed the march of
civilization, and declared the only
blot to be seen at the present day is the
divorce practice. The great private for
tunes he considered to be of value to
the Nation, while the labor problem, he
said, Is- only a step in the march of
progress.
"There has been growth," he .said,
"since the beginning of the world, prog
ress Is the law of the universe, and the
nations who came before this one, tho
men who lived and accomplished things
before Columbus, were simply the links
in a chain which has not -yet been com
pleted. When we know that this work Is
all for mankind, then we can understand
that his is a ' mission of commerce and
religion, and that mission marked the
dawn of Justice.
"The present condition of society here
Is full of promise. We have the greatest
fortunes of the earth greater than Rome
ever dared dream of and though philoso
phers say that where wealth accumulates
men decay, I eee no cause for despair.
When a large fortune Is not gained by
robbery, by fraud, or by the manipulation
of the laws, then it can be but a boon to
the Nation. My neighbor's prosperity
increases my own and that of the earth.
"Nor do modern fortunes tend to the in
crease of luxury. On the contrary, men
become more self-denying. I see no sign
of decay in the human race here.
"The labor question Is In process of
solution, and- every row Is a step toward
this. A laborer cannot get more pay
than the value of his product, for then
the product ceases tobe made. Nor can
he get much less, because of the element
of competition. The laborer of today Is
not' a servant but a partner of his em
ployer, and their good rests In a mutual
understanding.
"But the blot I see upon our civiliza
tion is the Increasing number of divorces.
In the ancient state the supreme impor
tance of life was to Increase the impor
tance of the state. Toay the end of life
Is the Individual good. But the Individual
good lies In the prosperity the family,
and it is at this that the divorce strikes.
If not checked it will destroy the family.
"The remedy to this, as I see It is to
realize that matrimony Is a state, not a
contract and divorce must be stopped.
Divorce strikes at the virtue of our wo
men, and this virtue Is what preserves
the state. Divorce is the one foul growth
upon our soil, and upon its riddance de
pends the fate of our future.
"If we are to choose between divorce
and polygamy, give us polygamy."

Chinese Fear Treaty Is Meaningless.
NEW YORK, Oct 12. The local press
displays little Interest In the United States
and Japanese treaties, according to a
Times' dispatch from Shanghai. The na
tive merchants, who were hopeful when
the British treaty negotiations were begun,
do not now expect any practical benefits
from the divided efforts of the foreign,
powers to effect a radical reform of the
Inland taxation of trade.
As regards the opening of places in Man
churia to foreign trade, native opinion Is
general that so long as the Russian
occupation Is maintained, the word "open
ing" Is meaningless, and It Is unlikely
that Chinese or American trade will derive
any substantial advantages from tho
treaty.
Rnssian Papers Show Fear of War.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 12. Significance
Is attached here to the fact that the Offi
cial Messenger and Journal de Petersburg
print the Berlin Lokal Anzeiger's dis
patch relating to the movement of the
Russian fleet and the possible coincident
landing of Russian and Japanese troops In
different parts of Corea. Several news-
papers publish reviews of Japan's mill-
tary and naval strength.
HALL PARK, NEW YORK.
NOW FEAR WAR LESS
(Continued from First Page.)
Britain from her obligation to support
her Japanese ally. Even Baron HayashI,
who has heretofore ridiculed all rumors
of war, Is not so optimistic today.
Indirectly, ho. admits the possibility of
war by expressing the hope that In the
event of a crisis Japan will have the act
ive sympathy of her ally, Great Britain.
While refusing to credit the reports of an
ultimatum having been delivered. Baron
HayashI admitted the diplomatic situation
had changed since October 8, and that
complications may have arisen from the
failure of the Russians to-fulflll their en
gagements to evacuate Manchuria on that
day. He, however, had heard nothing
from his government on tho subject.
Cheefoo, the source of the latest alarm
ing news, is several hundred miles from
Mashampho, so the reports of Japanese
military movements there are likely to be
a repetition of similar stories circulated
last week, which later accounts mini
mized. HINT OF A SECRET TREATY. .
China Said to Have Agreed to Let
Russia Remain in Manchuria.
, VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct 12. The last
steamer from the Orient brought the
declaration that Prince Chlng, on behalf
of the Dowager Empress of China, has'
made a secret treaty with Russia, allow
ing the latter to hold Manchuria for '15
years, after which three provinces are to
be "returned to China without any con
ditions attached thereto." The Tlen-Tsln
press therefore says It "does not expect
to see Manchuria freed from Russian rule
until the millennium." Another secret
conference, at which Russia and China
arrived at an understanding, was held at
White Cloud Temple, In Pekln. M. Les
sar, Russian Minister, met LI Lien Ying,
the Dowager Empress' favorite eunuch.
TheTaoIst abbott of the temple, also a
great favorite of tho Empress, was pres
ent AMERICA CANNOT PROTEST.
Her Interests In Manchuria Are Cov
ered by the Late Treaty.
WASHINGTON, Oct 12. Aside from
receiving news of extensive military prep
arations by both nations, the Japanese
Legation here Is not advised that either
Russia or Japan has as yet committed
any act of war. The Japanese Minister
is being kept constantly advised by ca
blegrams from Toklo of the situation,
and realizing its gravity, he Is moving
with great caution. Tho negotiations be
tween Russia and Japan, according to his
advices, are still in progress, and there
is hopo of a diplomatic settlement of the
questions at Issue. The Minister today
authorized the Associated Press to make
the following statement:
"His attention having been called to a
certain unauthorized statement attributed
to him that the nubile utterances of Jap
anese people are all In favor of war with 1
Russia, Mr. Kogoro Takashira, the Jap
anese Minister, states that while there Is
some disquiet due to the unsettled state
of affairs which has existed so long In the
Far East, it seems it has been aggra
vated more recently by the unfounded ru
mors regarding military and naval move
ments in certain quarters, but. In his
Judgment the Intelligent section of the
Japanese public has been generally calm '
and collected up to the present Juncture, j
as they know the matter has been fori
some time in tho hands of responsible -parties
of Japan and Russia, and that !
they have been negotiating with a view of
arriving at an understanding between
them."
For his own part, Mr. Takashira said,
he hoped for the best, because, -while the
situation Is not without indication of war,
the Russian government is candidly, dis
posed for a settlement of the question
with Japan, and therefore, so long as
the negotiations are proceeding with rea
sonable prospect of a result honorable
to Japan, there Is no reason to be over
anxious now.
"This is," said the Minister, "all that I
can say at this moment"
The representatives of this government
in the capitals of Russia, Japan and CMna
have not advised the State Department re
garding recent developments and, rumors
of war over Manchuria.
As has often been pointed out the
United States has no cause to protest
because Russia has failed to keep her
pledges that she would evacuate Man
churia on October 8. The interest of the
United States in Manchuria is covered
by the recent treaty between China and
this country. If Manchuria becomes an
nexed to Russia or from any cause under
Russian control, the United States will
Insist that provisions of the treaty, be
carried outj especially, as Russia assented
From Harper's "Weekly.
to Its provisions previous to It being
signed.
It Is believed here that an. understand
lng exists between Germany and Russia
in regard to operations In -Manchuria,
and that no protest or even disapproval
will be expressed by Germany over any
course Russia may pursue In China.
France Is apparently disinterested and
Great Britain Is thought to be the only
country that Is vitally Interested and
opposed to the course of Russia In Man
churia. It Is said that nothing has been re
ceived here Indicating that an official an
nouncement had been made by" the
government that the treaty between Rus
sia and China has -lapsed, but that It Is
evident that It has lapsed, because the
date for the evacuation of Manchuria has
passed and the terms of the treaty have
not been complied with and because the
treaty would naturally .lapse In such an
event -'
RUSSIAN SOLDIERS COMING.
Large Number Are on Their "Way to
the Far East by Rail.
LONDON, Oct 13. A dispatch from
Moscow to the Times dated October 10
states that a large force of Russian
troops, under orders for the far East, are
now on their way thither by rail from
Karkoff. The Russian correspondents of
the same paper send quotations from
newspaper articles pointing to Russia's
intention to remain In occupation of Man
churia, and add that It Is reported from
Vladivostock that as a result of famine
In China, roving bands of Chinese have
crossed into Manchuria, where their presr
ence constitutes a danger to the Man
churlan railway and this necessitates
keeping Russian troops in Southern Man
churia for an indefinite period.
Diplomat Says There Is No Tension.
Paris, Oct 13. The Figaro this morn
ing publishes an Interview with M. Ku
rlno, the Japanese Minister here, on the
subject of tho dispatch to the Frankfurter
Zeltung from Stanghai to the effect that
Japanese have occiipled Mashampho and
that an official declaration of war Is ex
pected. M. Kurino said the source of the
dispatch was suspicious, as Shanghai was
notoriously the originating point of bogus
news. Ho personally had not received
any confirmation of the report He con
tinued: "Moreover, my government's last com
munications were wholly pacific For the
present at least, our diplomatic relations
with Russia are cordial and no tension ex
ists between the two governments what
ever certain foreign newspapers may say.
I am inclined to think that tho dispatch
was a speculative maneuver."
Russian Embnssy Not Alarmed.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. At the Rus
sian Embassy the officials are not alarmed
over the situation in the far East The
view held there is that neither Russia nor
Japan desires war, though both may be
making preparations to that end, and
there- is really no question at Issue which
cannot be settled without recourse to
arms provided the negotiating parties are
disposed to use diplomacy rather than
the sword. The Embassy has received no
advices from St Petersburg for more
than two weeks.
Japanese Fishermen Seized.
VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 12. Japan has
been incensed at the seizure of nearly 700
fishermen by Russian men-of-war on a
charge of poaching. First 11 vessels wlti
278 men were captured and taken to Vladi
vostok. A few days later 19 more vessels
and 400 men were captured. Most of the
'fishermen were quickly released and sent
back to .Japan at Russia's expense.
Twenty-eight were tried, -but owing to
