THE 3IORNIXG OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1906. PITCHERS' BATTLE IS WON BY Americans Shut Out Nationals in Third Game for the Championship. VICTORY BROUGHT BY ROHE ffeister Loses Grip In Sixth and Blond Batsman'3 Three-Bagger Scores Three Walsh Is Invincible In Box. CHICAGO, Oct 11. Today's game be tween the Chicago teams of the National end the American Leagues 'was a battle royal between pitchers and the Ameri can League won, 3 to 0. Twenty-one batsmen struck out; for 12 of these the credit goes to Walsh. In addition he frave only one pas and aJlowed but two hlta. In the first inning. Thereafter the Nationals, until the ninth, Inning, never lhad any sort of a chance to score. Ac cording to the official count, 13.750 enthu siasts encouraged by slightly warmer weather, were present when the game be Igan. Tfelster Goes to Pieces. Pfetster, the left-handed rltcher. went Into the box for the Nationals. His con trol at first was good, but by no means perfect. He quickly steadied, however, end pitched superbly until the sixth In ning. It was here he went to pieces and the game was lost. Tannehlll, reputed to he a weak batter, singled down the third Vase line. Prime what disconcerted. Ffeis ter allowed Walsh to walk and a moment later hit Hahn in the nose,, breaking It. A doctor was called and O'Neil went to first for Hahn and finished the game for him. The bases were now full with nobody out. A pandemonium of cheers from the American League sympathizers broke loose. Pfeieter pulled himself together end there was a sigh of relief from Xa . ftlonal League supporters when Captain Jones fouled out to Kling. Isbell, one of the team's best batsmen, ordinarily, gtruck out for the third time during the frame. Rohc Wins More Laurels. Then came Rohe, the substitute, to bat. It was this light-haired young man whose accidental presence in Tuesday's tame by reason of Davis illness brought victory to the Americans. Again the fate of the game depended on him and again he did not fall. He waited patiently for a ball that suited him and swung with oil hlt strength. The ball hounded like a jackrabhit down the third-base line and under the benches in the great field. Tan nehlll, "Walsh and O'Noil crossed the plate amid wild cheering and the noise of many megaphones, while the author of the scores stood on third base receiving the congratulations of his team-mates. Donohue sent a weak fly to Evers and the agony was over. Nationals at Walsh's Mercy. On their part the Nationals started out like winners. In the first Hoffman sent a clean single to center. Sheckard struck out and then Hoffman killed all chances to score by trying to teal second, where he was thrown out. The next moment Behulte doubled to left, but It did no pood, for Chance went out, Isbell to l)onohue. Thereafter till the ninth the Nationals never gave a hint of designs on the home plate. WaLsh held them completely at Ms ' mercy, apparently growing stronger and steadier every inning. When the game began the Nationals swung vicious ly at his offerings, but before the contest was half over they were fishing for the ball, seemingly trying merely to touch it. Any kind of a hit would have looked good, but mostly when they did not strike out they rolled puny grounders to second or short and were out easily. Last Chance to Score Lost. In the ninth Gessler went to bat for Ffeister and reached first by Isbell's fum bling his grounder for a moment. Hoff man went out via Isbell, Gessler reaching second. Sheckard for the second time missed three good ones. Uessler beat Sul livan's throw to third because the catcher Juggled the ball for a moment. A hit meant a run, but Schulte became a victim of Walsh's curves and the third game of the world s championship scries was over. It took a large force of policemen to protect Walsh and Rohe from their fren ried admirers who thronged into the field, but they finally reached their carriages without ' being hoisted on Anybody's shoulders. Evers. Tinker and Tannehlll divided the fielding honors. &-ore: NATIONALS. WALSH A B. R. IB. PO. A. B.

Wickes. a nephew of the Pull man official, added another "victim" to the list of women involved In the so called Wickes scandal. Mrs. Thomas Harrington, of St. Louis, Is the one on whom the spotlight had not been previously turned. According to the evidence the lad first saw the woman when he was awakened in a room in a house in St. Louis and found the apart ment In which he was sleeping also con tained his uncle and Mrs. Harrington. Young Wickes' testimony related to this one point exclusively. Ex-Senator William Mason, who is conducting the case for the daughters and son, asked where Mr. Harrington was if he knew. , ' "Oh, he was in an adjoining room all the time," was the reply. Sidelights on the domestic Ufa of Wickes were revealed when George Mackerell, who occupied the dual role of butler and coachman in the Wickes household, took the witness stand. "Mr- Wickes drank a. great deal." he said. "If he got home and found his wife was away, he would go to the sideboard and take probably eix or seven drinks to prevent himself worrying. When he went to bed I had to fix up aeveral kinds of drinks for him to take to bed. Generally I put In five or six bottles of beer, one bottle of whisky, two or three bottles of lithia water and a bottle of buttermilk." "My, did he drink all these?" exclaimed Senator Mason. "Generally most of the drinks were gone, though sometimes only a little." In reply to a question as to the mental condition of Wickes, the butler said he thought at the time that Wickes was growing weaker and weaker, because of his getting wild and crazy, and he became unbearable, so the butler left his employ.

On a Long Run to Eastward Off. Santa Barbara Vessel Made Over 22 Knots. SANTA BARBARA. Cal., Oct. 11. Ow ing to an unfortunate accident to her port engine, the cruiser California failed In her endurance run today, when the vessel had been under way for 21-2 of the four hours required. Up to the time the engine was disabled the California had been making much better than the re quired 22 knots. That no one was injured at the time the trouble occurred Is little short of miraculous. A parting piece of the inter mediate crankpln bearing of the port en gine was forced out, the heavy steel shield being crumpled up like paper and hurled directly across the platform where several men had been standing a moment before. Any one in line of the missile would likely have been killed. The water pipes were knocked about and other mi nor damage was done before the engine could be stopped. The port engine did not work smoothly during the standardization trials Tues day, and Wednesday all the brasses were replaced. The builders did not have a chance to try out the engine before to day's endurance test, and before the ship had been under way half an hour the en gine began to knock badly, but when she continued to toll off the knots for two thirds of the time of the test It was hoped that the run would be completed without accident. Chief Engineer Gardner, of the Union Iron Works, believes that the damage can be repaired tomorrow and that the endurance run can be held Saturday. At the time the accident occurred the California was going about 22.2 knous an hour, whihe speed she had averaged all along. The California had made a long run eastward and was heading back toward Santa Barbara when the accident happened. Chief Engineer Fred A. Gardner, of the Union Iron Works, has notified the Cali fornia trial board that it will be neces sary to take the cruiser back to San Francisco to repair the breakage that oc curred on the run today. He asks that the endurance run be held in the north. The board has taken no action is yet on this request. Union Pacific Stock Falls. NEW YORK. Oct. 11.
