Seattle Had Its Batting: Clothes on and Drove the Ball All Over the Field. Before a'crowd of-about 4000 people, Port lan.Went down to-defeat yesterday by a score of 7 to 1, In a well-played game. Seattle had Its batting clothes on and made life miserable for Salisbury'. Port land's crack pitcher, and the outfielders, who were" kept busy chasing- the long hits that the Seattle batsmen sent their way. Bodle, hs Seattle outfielder, who has been pres8ed.Ja.to -Service In the. box. on ac count of the illness of one of Seattle's pitchers, pitched, a beautiful game, had good control, speed, arid watched the bases closely whenever a Portlander was lucky enough to land on one. Three hits. for -as many bases, were all that Portland could get, two of them being in the first Inning and the. other in the seventh. With the exception of the first and seventh In nings, the Portland men went out in. one. two, three order, only 30 men facing Bodie In the- nine innings. The fielding of both teams was "high grade, none of the errors being costly.- The two errors charged up against Delsel were partly excusable, he haying torn open his finger In going after a hot liner that just touched the end of his fingers. It looked as if it was going to be an other victory for Portland In the first ji&H of the game. Muller, the first man up, sent an easy fly. to second base and -was -out. Vigneux made a hit, also An derson. Brown then got life at first base on an error of Hodge On the first ball pitched he undertook to go down to the second "bag. but was thrown out by Frary, Vigneux, who "was on third, scoring on the pTay. Tinker fanned out, leaving Ander soh on third. Hand, the first man up' for Seattle, .got his base on Brown's muff of his long fly. Stolz, the next man, knocked up a little pop fly to first base and was retired. MufdocSk then sent out a Tdce little sin gle, landing Rand on second and himself on first. Frary, the next man Mp, flew oat to Miller Hurley then sent a beauti ful hit Into Muller's territory and Rand tried to score from second base, but he evidently didn't know the arm that boy Muller has, and he was thrown out at the plate. Neither side scored In the second In ning, going out in one, two, three order. In the third Seattle won the game. Bodie, the first man up, started the fireworks by sending out a three-bagger. Rand struck out. Stolz made a hit, bringing Bo die home, who in turn was thrown out trying to purloin the second bag. Mur dock sen out a two-bagger, followed by Frary. "who made a single, scoring Mur dock. Hurly, the next man, went out, Delsel to Mahaffy; two runs, both earned. Seattle scored again In the fifth. Bodie, being first up, made his second hit and stole second. Rand went out, Tlnfier to Mahaffy. Stolz got -first on Delsel's -error and stole second. Murdock was given a lire on first through the Kindness of An derson, who chose to throw Bodie out at the home plate in preference to Mur dock. Frary made a single, scoring Stolz and Murdock, the latter having stolen second. Hurly, the next man, flew out to Weed. In the seventh Seattle scored another run. Bodie, the first man at bat, made his third hit of the game and stole second. Rand flew out to Brown at center. Stqlz sent a hot one to Delsel, who threw Bo die out at third base, leaving Stolz on first Murdock got his base on four bad ones.

St. Johns got his base on an error of Delsel. Hodge, the next man, gent out a cracKing two-nagger, scoring St Johns. Harmon went out, Delsel to Mahaffey. The Irrepressible Bo die came up and planted out his fourth hit of the game, scoring Hodge. Rand fanned and Stolz went out, Anderson to Mahaffy. The seventh inning was the only one Irom the first that Portland even got a man on first base and came near scoring. Tinker, having made a hit. was playing Off first base. The pitcher threw to first to try to catch Tinker, and the ball went by and out in the crowd that was swarm $ng the field, Tinker landing on third. Weed made an easy out, Hodge to Hur ly. There being two out before Tinker made his hit, he was left on third. In the eighth Delsel was hit with a pitched ball. He being the first man, It looked bright for a score, but a neat double play put out both Delsel and Ma haffy, who followed, Salisbury ending the Inning by striking out Following is the detailed score of the game: SEATTLE.

Vancou ver's ex'perience in the Amateur Baseball League has been so far anything but encouraging. The team lost for tho sec ond time to Stephens' Addition today. The game was played In the Garrison grounds, the teams own field being partly covered with water from the Columbia. The home team started out well and the big crowd of spectators saw good ball for three In nings. At' this point the mistake was made of replacing Forsyth, who was put ting up an 'admirable game, in the pitch er's box, by Kane, whose wild throws gave the visitors 10 runs in the fourth and fifth innings.

Polk was elected President of the United States in 1844. on ft platform which declared the tttle of the United States to Oregon to be clear and indisputable; but in the final adjustment of the dispute this country lost that part of Orecon lying north of the 49th parallel. In his first message to Con gress, submitted in December, 1845, "President Polk declared that the rights of the United States In Oregon could not be abandoned without sacrifice of Na tional honor and Interest. "Oregon," he said, "Is a part of the North American continent, to which It is confidently affirmed, the title of the United States Is the best now In existence." In the message of August 5, 1843, communicating to Congress the convention for the settlement and adjustment of the Oregon boundary. President Polk recommended that "provision should be made by law, at fhe earliest practicable period, for the organization of a territorial govern ment In Oregon." This recommendation was repeated In the annual messages of 1846 and 1847. and in the special message of May 29, 1848. Congress finally heeded the President's recommendations and organized Oregon as a territory, and President Polk signed tho bill August 14, 1848. work for the rest of the game, but It was too late.

Denmark Is the Principal Factor In the Bnsiness Western France Markets Important. WASHINGTON, June 2. Frank H. Hitchcock, chief of the foreign markets section of the Agricultural Department, has prepared a comparative article on the trade between the United States, Denmark, Sweden and Norway during the 10 years from 1S90 to 1900, which shows that In that period our exports to those countries rose from J9.000.000 to nearly $29,000,000. Our Imports from Scandinavia are small, being below J4.000.000 In 1S94, OF OREGON. .&4i&t&5f& " r-x "" '&;&?m &t POLK. and only a little more than $5,000,000 in 1900, which was the record year In im ports. Denmark is the principal factor in our Scandinavian trade, the exports to that country for 1900 having a value of more than ?18,000,000, while the combined ship ments to Sweden and Norway were valued at about 510,000,000. Since 1890, when our exports to Denmark were valued at little more than $5,000,000, and our exports to Sweden and Norway at less than 54,000,000, the former have Increased over 513,000,000, and the latter to about 57,000,000. Although Denmark is the leading des tination of our exports in the Scandi navian trade, our imports come chiefly from Sweden and Norway. The value of the goods purchased from these two coun tries during 1900 slightly exceeded 54,000, 000, while the importations from Denmark had a value of only 5920,000. In the im ports from Sweden and Norway, how ever, there was comparatively little in crease during the past 10 years, whereas the record of Importations from Denmark showed a decided gain, the value for 1900 being more than double that reported for any previous year of the decade. Of the merchandise Imported into the United States from Scandinavia during 1900, about 27 per cent consisted of ag ricultural produce, whereas products of the farm comprised about 70 per cent of our exports. The chief agricultural ar ticles which were Imported from Scan dinavia were hides and skins, 6eeds, cheese and distilled spirits. Our non agricultural imports were valued In 1900 at 53,755,325. Iron and steel In unmanufac tured forms making up nearly half of this amount. Our export trade to Scan dinavia consisted chiefly of breadstuffs, which In 1900 amounted to 59.740.350. Of the non-agricultural commodities shipped from the United States to Scandinavia during 1S00, mineral oils and manufactures of iron and steel comprised the foremost Items. Measured In value, these two classes of merchandise constituted more than half of the entire export trade In non-agricultural products. Next to these two leading items, the most important exports. In the order of their value, were agricultural implements, leather, cycles, crude oil and steel and wood In Its un manufactured forms, and fertilizers. Oar Trade "With France. In a further series of extracts from the forthcoming volume II of "Commercial Relations," dealing with United States trade in France, Consul Brlttaln, of Nan tes, notes the development of the trade In American machinery in Western France. During the past season, he says, about 800 reapers, mowers and horse hay rakes arrived at that port. American mowers give good satisfaction, and the Increased prices asked for farm labor will stimulate the sale of such machinery In the future. The American mower was a common sight in the hay fields last Summer. In regard to the advantage gained by exhibiting machines, the Consul says: "Last month a representative of a New England factory made an exhibition of meat-choppers in cne of the Nantes stores, and during the afternoon about 20 of various sizes were sold. The Nantes house has since sold more than 200 of these machines. If some company were to make arr exhibit of wringers and show their working. I am satisfied It would be found a profitable enterprise. There are no wringers .sold or offered for sale here with the exception of a few heavy Engllbh machines." Consul Covert, of Lyons, says: "The houses of this district, which some years ago furnished fine French hardware to the United States, have almost entirely lost that trade within the last two dec ades, and they are enabled to hold their own here only on a protective tariff. American stoves, base-burners and small er heating stoves have a steady market here, the French make being unable to replace them. American saws and other woodcutting Instruments are pronounced the best in the world, because Americans are the greatest wood-using people.

Farmers tell me that they prefer to buy the Ohio and Illinois harvesting and hay ing machines, notwithstanding the in creased cost." Consul Tourges, of Bordeaux, says: "The fastest time made by any railway, it is said, is on the road between this city and Bayonne, where a run of 123 miles is made every day in 128 minutes, it is quite to the credit of American mechanics that the honor of making this run is ac corded to American locomotives." The Consul notes as a curious fact that one of the chief exports from Bordeaux to the United States consists of preserved forms of alimentary products which are grown in the greatest abundance in th United States, and are often superior in quality. Prominent among these are canned or bottled peas and string beans. There is not a particle of difference be tween them and the products of Ameri can gardens, except that the French peas and beans are of the smaller variety, and are put up while they are but halt ma tured and very soft; also they are packed with great attention to artistic effect. The cans are not filled by machinery, and the vegetables are not handled with a scoop shovel, everything being done by hand, and the wages of the girls who do this work depend as much on the appear ance of the bottles as en the number filled. Revenues of the Philippines. WASHINGTON, June 2. The division of Insular affairs, of the War Department, makes the following statement concern ing the total customs revenues of the Philippine Islands for the two months ended February 28, 1901, as compared with tne same months of 1899 and 1900: February, 1901 J1.4S5.S59 February. 1S99 663.966 February, 1900 ...r. 724,024 The figures indicate an Increase in 1901 over 1899 of JS91.402, and over 1900 of $731, 335, or more than 100 per cent. LONDON STOCK EXCHAHGE. Indications Point to a Rational Re sumption of Bnsiness. LONDON, June 2. All indications point to a rational resumption of business on the London Stock Exchange in the near future. There is no reason why this should have been delayed as long as it hae, except that London recovers slowly and, therefore, the effect of the recent panic has been a week, during which transactions have been decidedly dull. New York has continued sending higher prices, and these were marked up here in a perfunctory fashion, but actual bus iness has been very strong. Leading critics now point out that the material prospects of the United States, which caused the recent advance In stocks, are as good as ever, and that the community of interests In the campaign that Is essential to the development of the American railway systems Is certain to cause higher prices. London's Northern Pacific settlement Is now practically completed and money is easy. Home rails are dull and American securities offer the most attractive field for operations. The depression In home rails is due to unfavorable traffic report; the recent holiday period did not bring the traffic Improvement expected. The decided ease In money was due to Immense government disbursements, and there are confident predictions of an early reduction In the bank rate. The government, however, owing to the large amount of foreign money which might be withdrawn, If money oversharpened, Is cautious. It is reported that Berlin Is InvesOng In Chinese bonds, owing to the clearing of the political atmosphere In the Orient. BERLIN BOURSE QUIET. Withdrawal of Troops From China Was W'gjit Influence. BERLIN, June 2. It Is a significant fact that the announcement of the with drawal of the allied troops from China, which the Bourse had long expected would give an Impetus to business, was almost wholly . without Influence upon trading last week. Its only effect was to increase transactions in Chinese loans at rising quotations. In all departments the Bourse had a very bad week, with lower quotations everywhere. The causes were the unsatisfactory reports from the iron .centers and the general Industrial situation. The weakest spot in the mar ket was th& Iron section. All Iron shares fell off, the declines in some instances reaching seven points. The general In dustrial situation Is regarded as less fav orable. Canadian Pacific developed strength upon the Increased earnings, but Northern Pacific was neglected. The Prussian Government has ordered 350 locomotives at an aggregate cost of 17,500,000 marks. HEAVY SPRING STORM. Three Persons Injured in a Penn sylvania Town. PITTSBURG, June 2. One of the heav iest Spring storms known to the Weather Bureau here passed over his section to day. Much damage was done property and four people were badly hurt. At Whlttaker a partly finished store and dwelling was wrecked, burying in the ruins three boys and a man, all of whom were badly Injured. The man, Daniel Mar tin, may die. The boys, George Marley, aged 15; Frank Sturgls, 13, and TDanlel Ashton, 16, when dug out of the ruins were in bad shape, but all will recover. The boys had been playing ball and took refuge from the storm in the building. The storm lasted only 15 minutes, but In that time an Inch of rain fell, heavy hall ruined crops and heavy winds blew down many small houses. Floods in Colorado. PUEBLO, Colo., June 2. All streams from Rocky Mountain headwaters are very high, including Fountain Creek. The Arkansas River has been threatening its bridges, but subsided somewhat today. An enormous amount of water which the big Irrigating canals, all of which are wide open, cannot receive, is flowing to Kansas. The 4-year-old boy of John Turklngton, playing along Fountain Creek, in the north suburbs today, fell in and the body was swept away. It has not been re covered. MAY BE RECONCILED. General Booth and Ballington Mar Yet Make Up. CLEVELAND. June 2.The Leader to morrow will say: I. D. Hazard, financial secretary of the Colonization and Social Settlement De partment of the Salvation Army, is au thority for the statement that negotia tions are being carried on looking to a re conciliation between General William Booth and his son, Balllngton. Father and son have been estranged for five years, the son having in the meantime organ ized the Volunteers of America. If the reconciliation is effected, it will mean Balllngton's return to the Salvation Army, and probably result In the abolishment of the Volunteers of America and Us affilia tion with the Salvation Army. First "Agnostic" Marrlng-e. CINCINNATI, June 2. The first "ag nostic" marriage in this country occurred today and formed the closing feature of the Agnostic Sunday school that has been established here. The contracting parties were Frederick Federle and Martha Sea man.

Declnres the' Woman Killed Herself, and He Burled the Body to Avoid the Disgrace. KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 2. W. H. Klensmlre, whose wife was yesterday found murdered near their home, at Hol ton, Kan., burled In a shallow trench, was arrested In Kansas City, Kan., to day. Marks on the body, which Is believed tx have been buried since May. 29, indi cated' that her skull had been crushed with a club, and suspicion was directed against the husband, who disappeared on that date. When arrested today, Klensmlre was at the depot waiting to take a train, as he said, for Holton. When told that he was wanted on suspicion of murdering his wife, he refused for a time to talk. Then he declared that his wife had committed sui cide on May 12. On the following morn ing, he said, when he found the body hang ing from the rafters in their house, he took It to the trench and burled It. Klens mlre denied that he had murdered his wife. He was tracked to Kansas City, Kan., by a Topeka detective, and said that he had arrived here on May 30. He was taken to Topeka tonight. Klensmlre was supposed to have gone to Texas, but It appears that detectives who have been working on the case traced him to Kansas City yesterday. Friday last the Klens mlre children In Holton received a tele gram from Texas, and apparently from their father, stating that Mrs. Klens mlre had died there of yellow fever. Following the finding of the body, the mysterious murder in 1892 of Paul Swet lick, Mrs. Klensmlre's brother, who car ried 586,000 life insurance in favor of the Klensmires, was brought forth as a sus picious circumstance, and this led to coupling Klensmlre's mysterious disap pearance with the murder of his wife. Finally Klensmlre was Induced to make the following statement: "My wife and I disagreed frequently, but I usually let her have her way. Just be fore her death she was very angry 'be cause I wanted to sell some land to which she had signed a deed. She said she would ' leave me. But I did not want people to know she had left me, and told her to say she was going away on a visit. We had a few words on Sunday (May 12) about it. She went away and later I found her body hanging from a rope In the barn. I took her down, but was afraid of the dlBgrace, and hid her body In the straw. The next day I burled her. I told the children she had gone to Texas and the telegram I had sent, saying that she was dead, was intended to keep them from knowing aha hart k'.lled herself." All this was ground out of Klensmlre in short nesltatlng sentences. Asked about the coi.dltlon of his wife's crushed nead, ho said: "May be the dirt falling on It mn&ted It in. I would not strike her.'- There "was no more than two feet of c'lrt over the body when it was found. Klensmlro is a German farmer, 48 yeara old, tall, spare and uneducated. He talks with hesitation and appears dull of mind. The possibility that he will be tried for murder seemed secondary to the dis grace that would result from the publicity of the affair. Klensmlre was born near Holton, and has always lived In that vi cinity. His mother and two or three brothers and sisters live there, and are prosperous and respected. FORGERY OF VOUCHERS. Ohnrffc Against an ex-Offlcer of the Regular Army. BUTTE, Mont., June 2. Lieutenant John M.
