BEAVERS WIN AGAIN
AND VERNON LOSES
IX)8 ANGELES. Oct. 11. (Special.)
There la little doubt now that Port
land will win the 1911 pennant. Mc
Credle's men never played better ball
than they are now and Vernon aeems
to have gone all to pieces. The lieav
era easily disposed of Los Angeles
today and Vernon dropped another to
the Oaks.
Henderson outpltcbed Torer and the
Heaver outplayed their opponents In
every department of the game.
When tha reault of tha Oakland
Vernon game, disclosing the rout of
Happy Hogan'a men, was posted on
the score-board the Lo Angeles fana
cheered the Beavers, apparently recon
ciled to the belief that the Coaat
League pennant'will go to Portland.
Portland's victory today and the de
feat of Vernon gives McCredle's team
a lead Of 17 points over the Villagers
In the contest for tha Coast champion
ahlp. The camp of McCredie la gay
and glad.
Captain Dillon had announced that
"Flame" Delhi, hia ' crack twlrler,
would try hia deft hand against Port
land today but he disclosed such a
wtldness while warming up for the
contest that the Angel leader changed
hla mind and dispatched "Bill" Toner
to the firing line. x

kins, which she lost Wednesday noon,
In the kitchen sink. Almost the entire
population of Estacada haa turned out
to look for the Jewelry, and are dig
ging up the sewer, under the direction
of Mr. Hawkins.
The property constated of alx dia
mond rings, which were tied up In a
handkerchief. They were inadvert
ently dropped into an open sink about
noon yeaterday. The sewer Is twenty
five feet deep In places, and probably
it will require a day or two before It
Is dug up. If the rings are not found
before that time.

. Mr. Minnie D. Taylor, who Is being .
sued for an annulment of their mar
riage by Charles D. Taylormillionaire
miner, through her attorneys, flegel
L Reynolds. -Wednesday flled a mo
tion for an order ror 17,000 to defend .
the suit and for $2,500 monthly for
maintenance during the pendency of
the action. Judge Eakln who recently
set aside an order annullng the mar-
ringo upim cumpiami 01 ine aeieU'
dant tnat It waa obtained through
fraud, will pass upon the motion.
The defendant alleges that she lives
at Santa Ana, Cal., more than 1.200
mile, from uiton City, and that alia 1
believe J the cult waa brought here lo
prevent her from making an adequate
defenae. - See further avera tbat Mr.
Taylor ' hai contributed notnlng
toward her upiort since 1909. The
following 1j a iart of an affidavit
filed by her In support of the motion?
"That p'nlntiir la a man of great

la pending in th's court or en appeal
to enable her to live In tha manner
and according to the standard of liv
ing to which she has been accustomed
aa th wife of the plaintiff and accord
ing to her atatlon In life." .
Mrs. Taylor declares that ahe has
been compelled to spend f 1.500 In de
fending the suit and she declares that
to make a proper defense It will be
necesaary for her to bring six wit
nesses here from San Francisco at an
expense of at least $200 each and one
witness from New Tork at an expense
of more than $300. She says their .
testimony is necessary to refute
charges of misconduct on her part
made by the plaintiff. The affidavit
continues: V
"That the derendant considers the
defense to her honor and character
and reputation to be the dearest In- ,
terest which she has or could have
and that the plaintiff with his ample )
wealth la making and will make every
possible effort to blacken the charac
ter or the defendant and to prevail in
said suit."
A. F. Flegel. one of the attorney
for the defendant alao filed an affi
davit declaring that the money aaked
by her waa necesaary for her malnten- ,
ance and the proper defense of the
suit In re-opening the case several ,
weeks ago Judge Eakln said that the
defendant should beTtiven the right to
make a defenae. The main laaue la
expected to be heard at the fall term
of court, and much sensational tesu-
money will be Introduced. That Mr. '
Taylor will make a vigorous fight
against paying the large amount of
money asked was Indicated some time
ago when his attorney, George C.

large sum.
