SPOKANE, Aug. 4. The Spokanes -won
out In the eleventh inning of the hardest
played game seen on the local grounds
this season. Rlsley's three-base hit in
the eleventh, and Adams' beautiful work
in the last half did the business. 'With
a man on second and third and no outfe
and one run scored, Adams fanned three
of Portland's best hitters in succession.
Until the sixth inning neither side got a
run. Both pitchers pitched great ball
throughout the game. In the sixth two
singles, an error and a stolen base
scored two runs for Portland. In the
seventh a single by Lougheed, an error by
Weed, and Anderson's fumble evened the
score for Spokane. For three innings
nothing happened. Then Spokane took on
her little batting streak when tfwo men
were out, and, aided by Anderson's error,
scored three. runs, while the crowd went
wild with enthusiasm. Attendance, 4000.

SEATTLE WON KJIOM TACOMA.
Work of Pitcher Hickey Respon
sible for Victory.
SEATTLE, Aug. 4.-The last game of
the Tacoma series today resulted in the
prettiest exhibition of pitching ever seen
in Seattle. HIckey, whose record, owing
to a lame arm, has not this season been
of the best, struck out no less than 16
men and gave the visitors but a single
hit in the last inning. In the fifth ho
wavered for a few minutes, hitting one
man with a pitched ball, and giving an
other a base on balls. Then with a wild
throw to first he allowed them both to
score. In the third, fourth and seventh
he struck out three men each Inning. Se.
attle picked up from thi slump they have
taken lately in their batting, very man

Reinsarance on the Roanoke.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 4. The Amer

63 days out from Norfolk, Va., for San
Francisco ywlth a cargo of coal, but still
the underwriters are willing to pay 45
per cent to reinsure their risks on vessel
and cargo. July 8, in latitude 45 degrees
45 minutes north, longitude 47 degrees 17
minutes west the steamship Margherita
sighted an American wooden ship on fire.
Her captain described the burning vessel
as oemg more tnan 400 reet long with all
her four masts gone, but what was pre
sumably an Iron house and a donkey
engine still standing amidships. From
the nature of the fire It was surmised
that the vessel's cargo was coal. On
this account the underwriters at once
pffered 30 per cent to reinsure and now
It has reached 45 per cent.

THE MORNING
LODGEMEN PLAY BALL
WORKMEN -DEFEATED BY
WOODMEN 6 TO3.
THE
Good Stick "Work: in the First Two
Innings Gave the Woodmen a
Lead Which Ther Maintained.
The Woodmen of the World, in their
triumphal procession yesterday, walked
over the bodies of nine members of the
Ancient Order of United Workmen. The
ceremony took place on the ball field of
the Portland Baseball Club, and was
witnessed by 1000 members of the two
orders who rooted continuously while
the lodge men cavorted like professionals
on the diamond. The score, 6 to 3, was
close enough to satisfy even the most
fastidious fan. The Woodmen handled
the bats like axes'. Every time they swung
on the ball they chipped pieces out of
the leather sphere. The balls for the
game cost a small fortune. Every once
In a while Trilby Rankin would pull
out a shiny white sphere from his pocket
and call out "Play the game."
The Workmen were not willing vic
tims. They kept playing the game up
to the last minute, but their stick work
was not up to the mark of the ax
wielders, and -they were forced to be
content with the short end of the score1.
Both sides played like professionals.
Errors were few, and when the ball was
popped in the air, it was a sure out,
and not the sign of a home run.
Second Baseman Alnslie, of the Work
men, made one of the most sensational
plays of the game, when he fielded suc
cessfully Meach's fast grounder. The
ball looked like a sure hit Alnslie went
after It fast and dove just In time to
scoop it up with one hand, and to throw
the fleet-footed shortstop out at first
The Woodmen fell upon young Mclnnls
for four hits in the first inning, which
gave them two runs. Meach took his
base on baits, stole second and went to
third on Oliver's out' He scored on
Heslin's safe hit The latter went out
In attempting to steal second. Dunbar
rapped out a hit and went to third or.
Mclnnls' wild throw to first, ,and scored
on Bellew's hit. Ludberg advanced Be
llew to third, but the next man, R. Oliver,
OUULK. OUl.
When Baldwin, the first Workman,
came to bat, there was blood in his eye,
and he aimed to swat the ball over the
champagne, ad. on the left field fence.
Pitcher Dunbar feared this. He threw
his fiercest curves. One of these hit
Baldwin and he walked to first Three
out of five times Baldwin stepped to the
bat he stopped one of Dunbar's hot ones
with his side. The last time he was
brought to the ground with the crash of
a falling tree. He nevertheless scored the
first run for his side, coming-in to the
home place on C. Gell's two-base hit
Gell was advanced to third by AInsIIe's
single, but died there when his side was
retired.
The Woodmen did things again in
their time at bat With one man out,
Hackett took first on a hit and second
on a wild pitch. Meach took first on
Newell's error at short and stole sec
ond. Both scored on Oliver's fine three
bagger. The side was retired by a pretty
double. Heslin .sent a hot grounder to
Newell, who fielded the ball neatly to
First Baseman C. Gell, who returned It
to catcher Zan in time to put out Oliver.
The Workmen scored a run by hard dig
ging in the second. Hall took first on an
error, second on a passed ball, but was
retired at third by Shortstop Meach, who
fielded Newell's grounder. Mclnnls flew
out Baldwin and Zan filled the ha no
by being hit by pitched balls from the
speedy Dunbar. On Hackett's error,
Newell scored. C Gell struck out 1
In the fifth the Workmen were one run
nearer catching up to their rivals. 6.
Gell flew out Senner took first on the
error of Bellew. On Ainslle's hit Senner
tore for third, but was caught by a
beautiful throw from center by Crosby.
Alnslie reached second and scored on
Cal Gell's hit. Hall fouled out to Oli
ver. Up to the ninth it was nip and tuck.
Mclnnls steadied down and nhnf- nn- tVm
Woodmen Inning after Inning until the
ninm. .Hackett took first on a passed
ball on the third strike. The next iwo
men were fielded out Heslin sent out a
pretty two-bagger, scoring Hackett. Dun
bar followed Tvlth a single, scoring Hes
lin, amid great applause from the Wood
men. Beliew, the last man up, flew out
to first j
Both pitchers were In fine form. Dun
bar performed the feat of cutting Zan
out without a hit for the first time in
17 games. Mclnnls was touched up in
the first two Innings, but steadied down
and pitched a fine game.
Ncxr Sunday the two nines will play
the 6econd game of the championship
series. On August 17 and 18 Manager
Ralph Feeney will take the Workmen
nine to Spokane to meet the Woodmen.

SOLOMON IN ORANGE, N. J.
HoW a Dog's Identity Was Estab
lished by the Judge.
AIL, the Oranges, which, like ancient
Gaul, are divided Into three parts, are
talking today about a dog and It's owners,
and It must be confessed that Solomon,
In all. his glory, was not arrayed In the
public mind during any part of his ca
reer with the legal bouqueis which are
being flung at Justice 6f the Peace John
B. Leander, of West Orange, who decided
the .case, which decision forever must
rank alongside those immortal decisions
handed down timidly by historians, sayB
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
This suit, which Involved the Identity
and ownership of a full-blooded, regis
tered English setter dog, was tried be
fore the Justice last evening. Zllla I.
Mooney, a breeder of fine Jersey cows,
was the plaintiff, and S. W. Cary, Jr., a
wealthy resident of West Orange Moun
tain, was the defendant Seven weeks
ago the dog broke loose and ran over thp
Orange hills. Mrs. Moo'ney saw the ani
mal, -caught it and tied It up on her farm.
The animal chafed under restraint, and
one day slipped Its collar and by way of
retaliation Killed 10 of Mrs. Mooney's fine
Leghorn chlqkens. She then gave tha
dog1 to William DeHart a neighbor. He
also tied ittup. The dog again fllipped its
collar and ate up six Plymouth Rock
chicks, Just to remind. DeHart that he
was due .more1 consideration than Mrs.
Mooney. -Then DeHart, disgusted, gave
the dog back to Mrs. Mooney. The lat
ter tied-up the setter again.
In the meantime, Edward J. Coddlng
ton, a master mason of West Orange, laid
claim to the dog, saying that he had bred
it from a puppy, and that it had strayed
from his barn. He allowed Mrs.
Mooney, however, to keep the animal.
Last Thursday week a lady and trentle-
man, the latter the defendant, drove up
to Mooney's farm and asked to look at
the dog. Mrs. Moonejv seeing a chance
to sell, brought out the dog. "Why,
Kate, where have you been?" said Mrs!
Cary, and thereupon the dog Jumped into
the carriage and the party drove off hur
riedly. At the hearing last night, Mrs. Mooney
sued Mr. Cary for $125, her estimate of
the value of the dog. The court was
opened on the veranda, just where the
dying sun could shed Its last rays on the
Justice's high back forehead. Everybody
for miles around had heard of the dis
pute, Along the roaS.and under the big
elms and oaks were hitched farmers' rigs,
old buckboards, carryalls, buggies and
every kind of vehicle that a backwoods
jerseyman trots out on such occasions.
The old horses switched their tails over
dashboards and did their best to keep off
the pesky bugs and mosquitoes. William
Read Howe, the leading lawyer of Orange,
appeared for the defendant Plaintiff told
her story., De Hart corroborated It in
part, but said the dog was really given
to him by Coddington. Coddlngton swore
he bred the dog, but had let It go astray
at times. The defendant swore that he
and not Coddington, id bred the dog.
He called six witnesses, employes of his,
to prove this. One witness was John N.
-L.ewis, an 01a sporting manr who had
used the dog in field trials. Defendant
also produced certified cpples of the ped
igree of the dog. which he valued at
$1500, and the registry of the animal as
"Shot's Kate" In the American Kennel
stud book.
All the witnesses on both sides de
scribed the points and thte marl nt ho
, dog accurately. The case became so riuz-
zllhg and the testimony as to ownership
so conflicting that the Justice went into
a back room and thought for throp-
'quarters of an hour, after wh.ich he re-
iurnea 10 xne veranaa and annouqed that
he wanted to have the dog brought on
the veranda so that the animal's move
ments and performances might give a
better clew to Its identity and ownprshln

DR KOCH'S DISCOVERY
NO DANGER FRO 31 BOVINE TUBER
CULOSIS. Experiments Unintentionally Cairied
Ont In the Great Cities Intesti
nal Consumption.
The assertion of Professor Koch, the
famous specialist, that tuberculosis in
cattle cannot be transmitted to human
beings, Is contained In tn article by him
in the Journal of the American Medical
Society, of July 27. entitled "The Fight
Against Tuberculosis in the Light of
Experience Gained In Successful Combat
of other Infectious Diseases." After
premising that tuberculosis Is a prevent
able disease and making the contention
that human tuberculosis cannot be
transmitted to cattle, Dr. Koch says:
Is Man Susceptible to Bovine Tub
crculosls But now, hew is It with the suscepti
bility of man to bovine tuberculosis? This
question is far more Important to us
than that of the susceptibility of cattle
to human tuberculosis, highly Important
as that Is, too. It Is Impossible to give
this question a direct answer, because,
of course, the experimental Investigation
of It with human beings Is out of the
question. Indirectly, however, we can
try to approach It. It Is well known that
the milk and butter consumed In great
cities very often contain large quanti
ties of the bacilli of bovine tuberculosis
In a living condition, as the numerous
infection experiments with such dairy
products on animals have proved. Most
of the Inhabitants of such cities dally
consume such living and perfectly viru
lent bacilli of bovine tuberculosis, and
unintentionally carry out the experiment
Which we are not at liberty to make.
If the bacilli of bovine tuberculosis were
able to Infect human beings, many cases
of tuberculosis caused by the consump
tion of allmenta containing tubercle btel 11
could not but occur among the Inhabi
tants of great cities, especially the child
ren. And most medical men believe tht
this Is actually the case.
In reality, however, it Is not so. That
a case of tuberculosis has been caused
by allmenta can be assumed with cer
tainty only when the intestine suffers first
that is, when a so-called primary tu
berculosis of the Intestine Is found. But
such cases arc extremely rare. Among
many cases of tuberculosis examined after
death, I myself remember having seen
primary tuberculosis of the intestines
only twjee. Among the great post mortem
......v..,!.. vii mc vimiHu .rauajjiiiu in Ber
lin 10 cases of primary, tuberculosis of
the Intestine occurred 'in five years.
Among 1)33 cases of tuberculosis In child
ren at the Emperor Frederick's Hospital
for Children. Baglnsky never found tu
berculosis of the intestjne without simul
taneous disease of the lungs and the
bronchial glands. Among 3104 post mortem
examinations of tuberculous children,
Bledert observed only 16 cases of primary
tuberculosis of the Intestine. I could cite
from the literature of the subject many
more statistics of the same kind, all In
dubitably showing that primary tubercu
losis of the intestine, especially among
children, Is a comparatively rare disease,
and of these few cae3 that have been
enumerated it Is by no means certain that
they were due to Infection by bovine
tuberculosis, which may have got Into the
digestive canal In some way or other
for Instance, by swallowing saliva from
the mouth. Hitherto nobody could decide
with certainty In such a case whether the
tuberculosis of the Intestine was of hu
man or animal origin. Nor we can make
the diagnosis. All that Is necessary is
to cultivate in pure culture the tubercle
bacilli fdund In the tuberculous material,
and to ascertain whether they belong to
bovine tuberculosis by Inoculating cattle
with them. For this nurnose I refnm.
mend subcutaneous Injection, which yields
quite specially characteristic and convinc
ing results For half a year past I have,
oKcupieQ myseir, wun sucn investigations,
but owing to the rareness of the disease
In question, the number of the cases I
have been able to Investigate Is but small.
What has hitherto resulted from this In
vestigation does not support the assump
tion that bovine tuberculosis occurs In
man.
Though the Important question whether
man is susceptible to bovine tuberculo
sis at all is not yet absolutely decided,
and will not admit of absolute decision
today or tomorrow, one Is nevertheless
already at liberty to say that. If such a
susceptibility really exists, the Infection
of human beings Is but a very rare oc
currence. I "fcould estimate the extent of
the Infection ijy ilie milk and flesh of tu
berculous cattle, and the butter made of
their milk, as hardly greater than that
of hereditary transmission, and I there
fore do not deem It advisable to take any
measures against It
Human Sputum the Main Source of
Human Tuberculosis. t
So the only main source of the Infection
of tuberculosis Is the sputum of consump
tive patlenta, and the measures for th
combatting of tuberculosis must aim at
the prevention of the dangers arising from
its diffusion. Well, what is to be done in
this direction? Several wavs are onPn.
One's first thought might be to consign
all persons suffering from tuberculosis of
the lungs, whose sputum contains tuber
cle bacilli, to suitable establishments.
This, however, Is not only absolutely Im
practicable, but also unnecessary. For a
consumptive who coughs out tubercle
bacilli Is not necessarily a source of Infec
tion on that account, so long as he takes
care that his sputum Is properly removed
and rendered Innocuous. This Is certain
ly true of very many patients, especially J
in me nrst siaces. ana also of those who
belong to the well-to-do classes and are
able to procure the necessary nursing.
But how Is It with people of very email
means? Every medical man who has' oft
en entered the dwellings of the poor, and
I can speak on this point from my own
experience, knows how sad is the lot of
consumptives and their families there.
The whole family have to live in one or
two small, lll-ventllated rooms. The pa
tient 13 left without the nursing- he needs
because the able-bodied members of the
family must go to their work. How can
the necessary cleanliness be secured un
der such circumstances? How is such a
helpless patient to remove his sputum, so
that it may do no harm? But let us go a
step further and picture the condition of a
poor consumptive patient's dwelling nt
night The whole family sleep crowded
together In .one small room. However
cautious ho may be, the sufferer scatters
the morbid matter secreted by his dis
eased lungs every time he coughs, and his
relatives close beside him must inhale
this poison. Thus whole families are In
fected. They die out, and awaken In
the minds of those who do not know the
Infectiousness of tuberculosis the opinion
that it is hereditary, whereas Its trans
mission In the cases lifquestion -was due
solely to the simplest process of infection,
which do not strike people so much be.
cause the consequences do not appear at
once but generally only after the lap&t
of years.
Notification.
Among such preventive measures I re
gard obligatory notification as specially
valuable. In the combatting of all Infec
tious diseases vit has" proved Indispensable
as a means of obtaining certain knowl
edge as to their state, especially their
dissemination, their Increase and decrease.
In the conflict with tuberculosis also we
cannot dispense with obligatory notifica
tion; we need it not only to Inform our
selves as to the dissemination of this
disease, but mainly in order to learn
where help and Instruction can be given,
and especially where the disinfection
which Is so urgently necessary when con
sumptives die or change their residences
has to be effected. Fortunately it is not
at all necessary to notify all cases of
tuberculosis, nor even all cases of con
sumption, but only those which, owing
to the domestic conditions, are sources of
danger to the people about them. Such
limited notification has already been In
troduced In various places In Norway,
for Instance, by a special law: in Sax
ony by a ministerial decree: in New York
and In several American towns, which
f have followed Its example. In New York,
wnero notification was optional at first,
and was atterwards mide obligatory. It
has proved eminently useful. It has thus
been proved that the evils which It used
to be feared the introduction of notifica
tion for tubtrcucsls would bring about
need not occur, and It Is devoutly to be
wished that the examples I have named
may very soon excite emulation every
where. Disinfection.
There Is another measure, closely con
nected with notification namely, disinfec
tion, which, as already mentioned, must
be effected when onnsnmntivoc- n
change their residence. In order that those
wno next occupy the Infected dwelling
may be protected against Infection. More
over, not only the dwellings, but also the
Infected beds and clothes of consumptives
ought to be disinfected.
Education of the Public.
A further measure, already recognized
on all hands as effective, is the instruct
ing of all classes of the people as to the
Infectiousness of tuberculosis, and the
best way of protecting oneself. The fact
that tuberculosis has considerably dimin
ished In almost all civilized states of
late is attributable solely to the circum
stance that knowledge of the contagious
character of tuberculosis, of infection and
the consequent greater caution In Inter
course with consumptives Is shown by a
calculation of Cornet's regarding the de
crease of mortality from tuberculosis In
Prussia In the years 1SS9 to 1S97. Before
1S89 the averagp was 31.4 per 10,000, where
as In the period named It sank to 21.S,
which means that. In that short space of
time, th number of deaths from tuber
culosis was 181,000 less than was to be
expected from the average of the preced
ing years. In New York, under the in
fluence of the general sanitary measures
directed In a elmple. exemplary manner
by Biggs, the mortality from tuberculosis
has diminished by more than 35 per cent
since 18S6; and It must be remembered
that both In Prussia and In New York the
progress indicated by these figures Is due
to the tlrbt beginnings of these measures.
Considerably greater success Is to be ex
pected of their further development. Biggs
hopes to have got so far In Ave years that
In the City of New York alone the annual
number of deaths from tuberculosis will
be 3000 lers than formerly. "
Now, I do. Indeed, believe that it will
be possible to render the sanatoria con
siderably more efficient. If strict care be
taken that only patients be admitted for
whom the treatment of those establish-
ments is well adapted, and If the duration
of the treatment be prolonged, it will cer
tainly be possible to cure 50 per cent, and
perhaps still more. But even then, and
even If the number of sanatoria be greatly
Increased, the total effect will always re
main but moderate. The sanatoria will
never render the other measures I have

ures in the conflict with tuberculosis.
Conclusion.
If now, in conclusion, we glance back
once more to what has been done hitherto
for the combating of tuberculosis, and
forward to what has still to be done, we
are at liberty to declare with a certain
satisfaction that very promising begin
nings have already been made. Among
these I reckon the consumption hospitals
of England, the legal regulations legard
Ing notification In Norway and Saxony,
the organization created by Biggs In
New York the sfudy and Imitation of
which I most urgently recommend to all
municipal sanitary authorities the sana
toria, and the Instruction of the people.
All that Is necessary Is to go on develop
ing these beginnings, to test, and If pos.
smie to increase their Influence on the-
dimlnutlon of tuberculosis, and wherever
nothing hns yet been done, to follow the
examples set elsewhere.
If we allow ourselves to be continually
guided In this enterprise by the spirit of
genuine preventive medical science. If we
utilize the experience gained In conflict
with other pestilences, and aim, with clear
recognition of the purpose and resolute
avoidance of wrong roads, at striking the
evil at Its root, then the battle against
tuberculosis, which has been so energet
ically begun, cannot fall to have a vic
torious Issue.

can be more certain than that coalitions
both can and will be formed against
them If they so behave as to make such
coalitions wojth the cost and risk. Coa

conditions, and probably always will con
tinue to be made. To be opulent, un

are too elaborate, and combine three or

each flounce bordered all round with tiny
bows of heliotrope baby ribbon placed a

effect of being covered with these bows,
and across one side Is festooned a trail
of shaded heliotrope, blue and pink roses.
Boas and neck ruffles are regarded now

Sc"c 5 thought, emotion or
feeling, good or bad. had he that he did
not communicate to his friend. The peru
sal of these letters can never arouse in
the reader respect for their writer. The
feeling they create Is best expressed In
Cardinal Woolsey's remark:
How much, methlnks, I could despise this man.
But. notwithstanding all that has been
said against him. follies are about the
sravest charges that can be brought
against poor Boswell. Much that Is to
his credit these letters bring to light
abundant good nature, true friendship,
anxious solicitude for his lfe, and his
desire and care that his sons and daugh
ters should be well educated. There Is
also evidence of some common sense, but
not sufficient to warrant his saying that
he was "a very sensible-good sort of
man." In the letter in which this occurs
he tells Temple: "You may depend upon
It that very soon my follies will be at an
end, and I shall turn out an admirable,
member of society."
