THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBEB-11',. 1901.
PORTLAND TOOK REVENGE
WON GAME FROM TACOMA OX FIVE
HITS AND NOTE ERRORS.
Climax Came in Seventh Inning,
"When Tacoma Had the Rases
Filled Vignexut' Star Catch.
Portland took revenge on Tacomi for
the victory of Wednesday when the Pu
gct Sound players ran their batting av
erages up several notches. Yesterday
the Portlands hammered the ball all
over the lot, and although they ma.de only
fie safe hits, the fielding averages of the
Ticoma went down In an Inverse ratio.
Errors gave Portland the game if any
thing did. The speedy blue base-runners
took every advantage, and when an
opposing fielder juggled the ball, all "he
saw was a streak of blue running around
the bases. It was ladies' day too, and
the home players were greeted -with
screams of approval, whenever a good
play was made, and the Tacoma team
was also applauded In the same gener
ous fashion.
The climar of the ga.me was in the
seventh Inning. The score was 4 to 1
in favor of the home team and Tacoma
was at the bat. McCloskey was the first
man up. He hit a swift ball to Ander
son that rolled up his body and then,
away, with him after it. It would have
been a hit, even If not fielded. Anderson
scooped it up with both hands toward
Mahaffey at first, and the ball got to
the bag Just in time to put McCloskey
out
The women cheered.
'Good boy, Anderson," yelled one ap
preciative woman.
With this starter to ginger tip their
enthusiasm, the crowd followed each
play eagerly. Stultz opened out on
G'.cndon for a hit. He was followed by
Zcarfoss with the same kind of a swat.
Carter flew out, and Stultz went to third
on the throw-in. Zearfoss took second on
a passed ball. Glendon failed to steady
down, and McCarthy walked to first,
filling the bases. There were two men
out. Murdock knocked a sharp ball to
Anderson, which he failed to gather in,
ard Stultz scored. The bases were still
full, and only a small batting rally was
needed to tie the score. Flannery came
to the bat, with blood In his eye, but the
only thing he did was to pop up a foul
ball that rose high and fell near the
grandstand. Vigneux ran full speed to
ward It, caught it just as It fell, and
then crashed against the stand. He was
given an ovation.
"There, there," cried out one woman
as he fell, ""let me go down there and
pick that nice boy up."
Vigneux catch retired the Tacoma side
and prevented an avalanche of runs that
had been impending. After that Tacoma
had no chance to score, and the men were
easily retired in the later innings.
Portland scored in the first Inning.
Muller took first on an error, was ad
vanced to second on Deisel's sacrifice, and
scored on Anderson's grounder that Mc
Carthy Juggled.
Tacoma also sent a run over in the
first. McCarthy lined out a pretty two
bagger to left. When Muller fielded it
he made a wild throw across the dia
mond, the ball eluding all the players,
making an effort to back up second base.
McCarthy did not stop running, scoring
easily.
Salisbury scored the second run for
Portland In the fifth. He sent out a clean
hit to right, and was advanced to second
on a sacrifice by Muller. Muller was
doubled up at first on Deisel's pop to
Carter. Salisbury scored on Anderson's
grounder to McCarthy, which that clever
fielder did not handle.
Salisbury scored again in the seventh.
He sent out another clean hit, and was
scored on Muller's three-bagger. Muller
scored on Deisel's drive to right, the
watchful Lynch, however, fielding Delsel -out
on first, cutting off a hit.
The score:

Canada May Try for the Cup.
NEW YORK, Oct. -10. The Impression
deepens that Canada may make the next
try for the America's cup. A special to
the Tribune quotes the Ottawa Citizen
summarizing the whole story as it refers
to Canadians trying for the cup in these
words:
"Canada's manifest destiny is to send
over a yacht to lift that America's cup,
which proved too hefty for 'pa.' Canadian
yachtsmen can beat Americans on the
rivers and Great Lakes. Why should they
not beat them on the ocean? It is wartli
trying for, and we believe the money
could be easily raised to put a Canadian
yacht in the race for the America's cup."

IN TURKISH TERRITORY
MISS STONE'S CAPTORS ARE ON THE
HEIGHTS OF JOKORUDA. "
Troops Attempting to Surround, the
Brigands Secrecy at the
t State Department.
SOFIA, Bulgaria, Oct 10. According to
semi-official intelligence, some shepherds
informed a Bulgarian official yesterday
that the brigands having Miss Stone in
custody are now 'on the heights of Joko
ruda, in Turkish territory.
Danger of a Trngedy.
LONDON, Oct. 10. With reference to
the announcement that the Turkish and
Bulgarian troops are surrounding the
abductors of Miss Stone, the Globe says
it considers that unless he movement
is suspended until she is safe out of the
hands of the brigands, there will infalli
bly be a repetition of the tragedy in
Greece during the year 1S70, when Lord
Muncaster and party were captured. Lord
Muncaster was released in order to ne
gotiate a ransom of 25,000. Then, as now,
an attempt was made to surround the
brigands, with the result that three gen
tlemen of the party were Jnurdered. Lord
and Lady Muncaster and a party of Eng
lish travelers were seized by Greek bri
gands April IS, 1S70, at Oropos and Mara
thon. Lord Muncaster and the ladies of
the party were sent to treat for 25,000
demanded as ransom with a free pardon
for the brigands. The latter were sur
rounded by troops, and retreating, April
21, klllea Mr. Vyner, Lloyd Herbert and
Count de Boyl. The Incident caused
great excitement, especially as many In
fluential persons were charged with con
nivance at the brigandage. Several 'of
the brigands were killed and seven were
captured, tried and condemned May 23,
of the same year. June 20, 1S70, Ave of
the brigands were executed.
Pnt a Price on Their Heads.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10. Tomo Sargentich,
an Americanized Montenegrin, who is
connected with a bank, knows a great
deal, from personal observation, about
the district where Miss Stone is held
captive, and about the people who in
habit it. He told -a Tribune reporter
yesterday that the native Bulgarians are,
in his opinion, in no way implicated in
the abduction of the American mission
ary.. He believed it to be the work of
Turks; but he thought the peasantry in
the country surrounding the scene of the
abduction could easily be induced by
an offer of cash rewards for the heads
of the brigands to undertake a war upon
the rascals, which would end in their
extermination. If rewards were placed
upon the heads of Miss Stone's captors,
he said, the heads would be forthcoming
sooner or later.
Ex-Minister Straus' Opinion.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10. Oscar S. Straus,
ex-Minister to Turkey, thinks that the
abduction of Miss Stone should not be
charged to the Sultan or his subjects.
Neither is he at all sure that the Bulgari
an Government is in any way implicated.
He prefers to think that it was the work
of irresponsible Bulgarian brigands who
were moved thereto solely by a desire
to extract ransom, and who had no po
litical end of any kind to serve by their
nefarious actions. Mr. Straus thinks both
the governments of Turkey and Bulgaria
will do all they can to bring the rascals
to judgment. No menace of war will be
allowed to arise out of the incident, in
Mr. Straus opinion.
Secrecy at State Department.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. A cablegram
has been received at the State Department
from" Spencer Eddy, secretary to the
United States Legation at Constantinople,
concerning Miss Stone's case, which, it
is said, is practically a repetition of the
facts stated by Consul-General Dickinson
in his dispatch of yesterday. State De
partment officials are still of the same
mind as to the danger of too much pub
licity touching the negotiations for Miss
Stone's release, hence they decline to
afford any information as to the progress
they are making.
Too Much Publicity.
NEW YORK, Oct. 10. A special to the
Herald from Boston says:
It has been decided to give out no more
statements of the condition of the fund
for ransoming Miss Stone. The decision
not to give out a list of contributors
each day is in line with the wish of the
Americon board to avoid publicity as
much as possible. The board feels that
the brigands are kept pretty well in
formed of affairs in America, and thinks
that the less they find, out just now the
better it will be for Miss Stone.
Surrounding the Mountain.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 10. The sur
rounding movement of Turkish and Bul
garian troops on the Mountain Gultepe,
on the Turko-Bulgarian frontier, near
Dubnitza, has commenced. The presence
of Miss Stone and the bandits on the
mountain is confirmed. The inhabitants
of Dubnitza are supplying the outlaws
with food.
News Expected Today.
LONDON, Oct 11. The Constantino
ple correspondent of the Times, wiring
yesterday, says.:
"The United States Legation here con
fidently expects to receive news of Miss
Stone today."

sued an itinerary for the battle-ship InJl
ana. She was to take a number of lands
men on a training cruise through the
West Indies. The publication was mis
interpreted as indicating a demonstration
on the coast of Venezuela. The Indiana
was to approach no nearer that country
than Port of Spain, but to remove any
cause for criticism, the Navy Department
has canceled the itinerary and hereafter
will refrain from publishing the projected
movements of ships.
MACABEBES ATTACKED.
Lieutenant of the Scouts Killed and.
One of the Force Wounded.
MANILA, Oct. 10. A detachment of the
Twenty-first Company of Macabebes to
day encountered a' large force ot insur
gents near Lipa, Province of Batangas.
Lieutenant Beau, of the Macabebes, was
killed and one of the force was wounded.
The enemy was strongly entrenched. Af
ter two hours fighting the Americans re
treated to await reinforcements. The
lnsurgepts numbered over 300, were armed
with Remington and Mauser rifles and ap
parently had plenty of ammunition.
Martin, a teacher at Mauban, was cap
tured by Insurgents while visiting a neigh
boring town under an escort of native po
lice. The next day his captors, relenting,
tied him in a hammock and carried him
to a point within a mile of the town and
released him, saying ho was a non-combatant.
The entire police force of Catanag. Prov
ince of Tayabas, numbering 11, have been
carried off by Insurgents armed only with
bolos. Presumably the police made no
resistance, though they were well armed
with carbines and revolvers.
Recruits for Philippine Army.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 10 It has been
determined at the War Department to
send troops to the Philippines to take
the place of those whose term of enlist
ment expires. Where the re-enlistments
are not large in any one regiment their
places will be fillled by separate detach
ments of recruits. If any considerable
number of enlistments expire in a single
organization, it Is probable that the or
ganization as a whole wllL be returned
from the Philippines and another regi
ment sent to take its place.

THE PUBLICATION OF
ERN ELOQU
(10 HANDSOME LIBRARY VOLUMES)
These gems of spoken thought were fugitive from lack of proper preservative
means, until the Hon. Thomas B. Reed, upon voluntarily retiring from the Speaker
ship o'f the House of Representatives, gathered about him these men of mark and
experience in literature, his friends and co-worker3 In other fields, and began the
task of preparing this great work. North, East, South and West and the Mother
country as well, have been searched for gems in every field of eloquence.
Here was a lecture that had wrougnt
upon the very souls of great audiences;
there an after-dinner speech, which "be
tween the lines" was freighted with the
destinies of nations. Here was an eulogy
expressing in few but virile words the
love, the honor, and the tears of millions,
and there an address pregnant with the
fruits of a strenuous life's work. Or,
perchance, a reminiscence, keen, sclntil
lant repartee, or a story potent In signifi
cance and aflame with human interest
Matter there was in abundance, for English-speaking
peoples are eloquent, but
THE BEST-ONLY THE BEST, ONLY
THE GREAT, THE BRILLLIANT. HE
WORTHY TO ENDURE, has been the
guiding rule of Mr. Reed and his col
leagues. Their editorial labors have been
Immense.
Whatever the viewpoint, this work is without precedent It has no predeces
sor, no" competitor. Speeches that have been flashed across continents, lectures
that have been repeated over and over again to never-tiring audiences (but never
published), addresses that have made famous the man, the time and the place
these are brought together for the first time, and with them a large number of the
wittiest sayings of the wittiest men of the nineteenth century.
For an hour for a whole evening In the easy chair at home for the study
of style and diction that have electrified brilliant assemblies, for the man
ambitious to become a successful or popular public speaker, and for the
one who has to prepare a toast or an address, this work is a never-
falling source of charm and inspiration. Nor is this solely ".a man's
work." "The tenderest tribute to woman I have ever read," said
Senator 'Dolllver when he read the manuscript of Joseph Choate's
after-dinner speech "The Pilgrim Mothers."
"MODERN ELOQUENCE' is a triumph of the publisher's art

PORTLAND, Oct79-(To the Editor.)
The evening dispatches from Boston and
Washington state that of the $112,000 ran
som demanded by Turkish brigands on
the life of the missionary, MI&s Stone,
less than $56,600 has been realized to date,

New York announces that Wu Ting Fang.
Chinese Minister to. the United States,

With sincere respect for Christianity,
I would ask, regarding the pillars of the
church, the professed Christiana owning
the wealth of the Nation, as to the depth
of their personal faith as portrayed by
practice when they permit an American
woman, a missionary sent out In. the
service of Christ, under auspices of their
own American Missionary Society, to
languish and go through a living: death
in the hands of merciless brigands when
by the payment of a few paltry dollars
and by that means only she could bo re
claimed. The American Missionary Society brings
influence to bear on the Government to
collect, by force of arms if necessary,
indemnity for the destruction of their
church buildings in foreign countries, and
( yet where the Government is powerless
in dealing with a lawless element, the
members (of church or society), with
boundless wealth at their command, and
who are responsible for Miss Stone being
sent to the scene of her present peril,
now permit her to go to her doom rather
than make individual contributions of
money, and to their shame Rermlt a
generous-hearted follower of Confucius
(whom they deem a heathen) to read
them a lesion in humanity. Are Christ's
teachings based on apathy and selfish
ness? R. C. PENTLAND.,
