Tha victory rives l"ortind the serle. four games to three. Elmer Koestner occupied the bill for the Beavers, and he pitched good enough ball to win any cay. The silent one wae on the Job at all times. The two Kflff rertstered aajalnst blm were the reeult of a base on bails and the only lone; hit he allowed. However, had ptr u'Kourke not kicked him self out cf the game. Nebtnger would not cava bad the opportunity of lacing out the two-bagger he annexed In the sixth Inning. Koestner hnd 0"Fuurk en hla staff- Had CTIlourke remained In the same It might have meant a shutout victory, but he crossed Ic tireery In the third and wae ejected from LAe soeaery. Ilnpia Hcorr First. BUI Rapps base-running was re sponsible for tha firat two rune tallied by the Beavers, and -both tlmea Bill eoored from second on dinky Infield hit. With one out In ihe fourth. Bill hit for two sacks to deep left, and taJ lled all the way from second when Pecklnpausth htt a elow grounder over the mld-etatlon and beat It to first. Rapps did not etop at third, but ecoot ed noma and tallied eaally. The Sen ators were caught napping at hla dar ing. In the Penatore half of the sixth, they did things. Shlnn, first man up. walked. Nebluger. the little redhead who became eligible when CKourke irot "canned." drove a two-btsiwr against the left-field fence, scoring f-hlnn. Van Buren aacrlflced. advanc ing Neblnser to third, and rianslg's long sacrifice fly to Kyan tallied tha second run. Mahonoy fanned and the Inning was oer. leavers Tie Score. One run behind, the Beavers came to bat In their half of the sixth, and once more Bill Itapps u the hero. Kyan popped to Nebtnger. but Rupps singled to center. Krucger bounced one off Jlramy China's shin for an In field hit. and Heleter saved Arellanes' bacon temporarily by making a grand stand catch of recklnpaugh's long drive toj left. Walter Kuan shunted a slow grounder toward second, and esslly beat It to flrat. Bill Kapps did not hesitate at third, but dashed across the register before the Senators were alive to the situation. This tied the score. With Kyan on second In the eighth. Krucger unoorked a eeemingly sure $: swat, but llelstnr made another grand stand catch, and tne Btavers were de prived of a score. In the ninth, tha Senators' efforts were fruitless, but Terry McKune. first man up for Portland, was safe on Lerohen's error. He ambled to sec ond when Arel'.anes contributed a balk. Koestnsr sacrificed neatly, poitlng Terry on third. It waa tip to Chad bourne, and ha wiie' figured to try for a long fly. but instead he gave ilc Kune the "office" for a squeese, and hla perfect bunt waa not handied at all. McKune scoring the winning run. 'Vhad" gets credit for his second hit, as well as for breaking up tha game. VrrnoD Come Tomorrow. The Senator left last night for Los Angeles.

Walter McCredle rece ved tha g-ladsomo lntelllgcnca last night In the . following telegram from tha Cleveland Americans: 'New Torn finally waives. Harlcness leaves Mon day." Portland drafted Harkness from Butto In 1908 and the blir fellow won S gamea and lost 21 for Portland dur ing the following season, being turned over to tha Cleveland Naps In the Fall of that year." Last season he won 10 and lost seven for the American Leaguers, which la an excellent record in view of the fact that Cleveland fin ished fifth with a percentage of but .447. Harkness Work Erratic. Harkness seems to have gotten off on the wrong foot this season and while the laet records show him with a four-and-four break, ho has been erratic In nearly every start snd has had to be relieved In his last two con secutive gamoa. Some time ago. Cleveland asked waivers on both Hark ness and Krapp. New York refusing to let Harkness slip out of the league and SL Louis doing a similar habeas corpus turn with Krapp. The latter hurler, who l also a right-hander, pitched a 1 to 0 victory over Philadelphia yes terday, so may finally conquer - his wlldness and make good. The addition of Harkness to tha Heaver staff will mean much to the McCredle Coast League contingent, for Mao" will now hava five right-handers Henderson. Bteen. 6eaton. Koestner and Harkness. and one left-hander. HenkeL This will give Portland tha most formidable heaving array In the league. An hour or two previous to receiv ing the news about Harkneas from the Kust. Manawer McCredle shied a pear shaped denial at tha story emanating from Uoston, hinting at an Immediate purchase or trade whereby Portland was to get a Boston National pitcher or outfielder. "If the Naps are unable to procure waivers on Krapp or Harkness they have promised to give me West Bos ton wrote me a few daya ago, offer ing me several players, but Boston hasn't anybody I want at present" said the Beaver leader. Veasey, who was supposed to have been turned over to Portland early In the season, went to New Orleans when the Napa finally succeeded In securing waivers on him, thus the offer of West following the Fanwell blow-up. Ryan Cannot Be Had Xow. According to the current " Issue of the Sporting News, of 8t. Louis. Cleve land Is figuring on trading Art Griggs to Portland for Buddy Kyan so that the local swat-merchant can go East ward at once. Another rumor has, the Naps sending Butcher. New Orleans outfielder, to this city for Ryan. Mc Creedle brands both stories as untruths of most brilliant hue. "Cleveland can have Ryan for next year if It so de sires, but not ntll after the Coast sea son la over." says he. Danny Long, of the Seals. Is also busv pulling the major league leg for additional twirling material. Long had his eye on Jess Baker, the big Spokane southpaw who twirled the l-to-0 game against Portland last Fall, but the Chi cago White Sox have refused to let Baker filter through their fingers.

PITCHERS DIVIDE HONORS Sage and Bloomfleld Oppose Each Other on Mound and Seattle Twlrler Has Little Better of Argument In. North. SEATTLE, Wash., July 9. (Special.) Arthur, Bues' genuine home run in the last half of the ninth Inning with one man on base and the score 2 to 1 In favor of Portland, put the glad tid ings finish today on one of the most intensely exciting battles of the year. Score: Seattle 8. Portland 2. From start to finish it was a nerve killer, Portland having the edge on every break - until .Arthur killed an out-curve on the off-side edge, the same ball that Bloomfleld had worked with signal success against the Giants for- eight spasms. Seattle fans have seldom seen a game where so many sub-climaxes were in troduced. In more than half the first eight innings, Seattle had men on the sacks In such a way that a hit or a foozle would have tied the score or given them the lead, but bo strong was the defense of the Portland crowd and so effective Bloomfield's pitching that local hopes were blasted every time. In three Innings two men were left stranded and in the fifth three pel ished miserably. Seattle had ten men left on bases, three ,tlmes Portland's number. Both Sage and Bloomfleld pitched great ball, but Sage had a little tet ter of the argument in the number of hits and he gave only one pass, while Bloomfleld walked three and hit two. Two of the runs off Bloomfleld were earned while both of those scored against Sage were due to mfield er rors in the second period. Bloomfleld was hit hardest in the first two innings, but a couple of outs at the home plate spoiled Seattle s chances In number one and a great one hand block by Williams and a couple of flies held the three Dingles In the second to one run.

In stead of the hoped for reorganization and strengthening of the Willamette Valley League planned for at a meet ing of the managers to be held here tonight, there Is every indication that the league is on the verge of disrup tion, and that league ball among the teams will be discontinued after next Sunday: President John Hunt, of Wood burn, and Secretary Jermaln, of Sa lem, were the only managers, here. President Hunt declares that Albany broke faith with the league today by refusing to follow schedule and play Hubbard, at Hubbard. "Albany never placed any forfeit money and as a re sult that team can do about as it pleases, but the move today In refus ing to follow the schedule and. the fail ure of the managers to appear here looks as though the league may be disrupted and organized ball cut out In the valley for tMls season. "We have a game scheduled next Sunday with Salem here and will play it. Albany at first refused to play at Hubbard today and then when we of fered to compromise and send Hub bard to Albany, the, Albany manager said he would rather play Corvallls. and I am under the impression that is what was done. At any rate Hub bard did not play. Corvallis is not officially in the league, and so our schedule was broken into and will probably be cut out altogether unless some understanding can be reached." Woodburn succeeded In defeating Salem today 6 to 4. Salem played ex cellent ball and in the seventh kept Woodburn from scoring by a. fast dou ble from Porterfleld to Cernik to Col bath. Pretty fielding by Huddlesion, Jerman and Kasper was a feature. Score: R. H. E. R. H. E. Salem ... 4 7 4; Woodburn 6 6 1 Batteries Allegart and Jones. Holmes and White.
