Chicago outplayed the Indians in every department, out hitting the locals 15 to 8, making but one error to three for Cleveland and stealing three bases while Cleveland stole 'none. Cleveland now leads Chi cago by but half a game. If Cleveland can take the two re maining games of the serie-i it is re garded as almost certain that the Indians have the flag won. They have only ten more games to piay two with Chicago, four with St. Louis and four with Detroit. If they can win seven of these, the White Sox must win the seven games remaining on tlierr schedule to tie the local team.

Wilson and Norman Boeckel of the Boston Natl6nals, stating that they had heard Benton declare he had won $3800 by betting on the Cincinnati-Chicago woxld series game last year on advice of Motor Contest association, and is now en route to this city with a special built racer. The car he will drive here is the same mount he used in. establishing half a dozen track rec ords in the dominion during the past y ea r The entry of the Canadian champ gives promise of keen competition in each of the big car events next week, and U is probable that a special match race will be arranged for him with Fred Horey. former world' dirt track champion and one of the favor ites who will start in the contests here. Horey is bringing two cars here, an Essex for the light-car events and a bigger craft for the time trials and free-for-all, long-distance grinds. With Horey and Ellingboe listed among the starters, fair officials here believe ' that new records for the coast states are certain for distances varying from one to 25 njiles. Horey has already informed Secretary Lea that he will attempt to put up a new time mark for one mile and believes that it will be possible for him to turn the Salem oval Under 47 seconds. thereby equaling the. world's record establisned by Louts uisiirow at at Louis. Entries for the Salem speed events will close Friday night in order to give sanction board officials suffi cient time to inspect the cars and classify; the events. Word has reached the fair board that a special prize has been added to the list of trophies by the Ajax Rubber company, which wMll present a silver trophy cup to the driver winning the free-forall long-distance grind, the feature race on the a'fternoon programme.

Salt Lake at Portland; no game. rain. Sacramento at Seattle; no game, rain. Biime Nature fucnished another one of those straw hat moulting after coons yesterday and there was no ball game between the Bees and Beavers owing to mildew on the playing field. These rainy days are hard on the fish who try to go through the fall with a ' dried gras.s bonnet. First thing they know the upholstery drops off, depreciation sets in and ye wearer finds himself driving on the rim. So far as the rain concerns the bail teams. Judge McCredie keeps up his optimistic spirits. "Give us nice weather Saturday and Sunday and we shall be satisfied," remarked the base ball magnate last night as ho tucked the barometer away In its tiny crib behind the kitchen stove. Two Day of Doubles. rouble-headers are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday afternoons, starting at 1 o'clock.- , The rainy week isn't so tough on the Salt Lake and Seattle clubs as on Po)4and and Sacramento. Seattle and Salt Lake played to packed stands all last week at Seattle so these two clubs have a few bundles of velvet to cairy them through. Here In Port land with two teams nagging at each other for the booby championship thero wasn't much more interest in the series than a soused mackerel dis plays toward an artichoke hotel. Moneybags Lean. Consequently the Sacramento club left Portland with the moneybags looklrfg lean andtungry. Sacramento also is bumping into bad weather this week in Seattle. Several members of the Sacramento baseball club will spend a fortnight or two at the close of the playing sea son in quest of deer, bear and cougar in the wilds of southern Oregon. Man ager Bill Rodgers will not be able to accompany his athletes owinp to nis recent typhoid attack. ' Marty McGaffigan of the Sacra mento club probably will be out of the game for the remainder of the season. McGaffigan sprained his ankle in the 6-0 game at Seattle early in Ahe week: Grover will play second and Schang third. The loss of McGaffigan will nlay havoc with Rodgers' infield and may clinch the booby championship for the senators. A new pitcher from tire major leagues will join Seattle next week in Portland. Frank Tobin, Portland "backstop, probably will be turned back to Seat tle at the close of the season. Man ager McCredie took an option on To bin when Baker and Koehler were out with Injuries. It seems a pity that some major league ball club doesn't reach out and grab George Malsel. The Portland gardener is one of the fastest men In baseball, is a faultless fly-chaser and his bat average of .330 or more speaks volumes for his offensive power. Mai- eel still is young and would strengthen half a dozen big leaguer clubs. The majors pulled a bloomer in the case of Ping Bodie, but finally New York woke up and yanked Ping back to the fast time and Ping immediately be came one of the biggest men in the majors. The New York Yanks are at tributing the loss of the American league championship to Bodie's in jury.
