Umpire Cunningham.
AFTER MULLANE'S SCALP.
Requests for Umpire's Discharge
lulled With President Lncns.
TACOMA, June 10. The presidents of
both Portland and Tacoma baseball as
socations have filed requests for the dis
charge of Umpire Mullane, on the grounds
of Incompetency. It is. understood, that.
Butte will 3oln in the protest, President
Whitemore, of Portland, says that "his
team will not again appear on the dia
mond with Mullane as umpire. Tacoma
makes the same statement.
This dispatch follows the foreshadowing
of the trouble that was given by" the un
satisfactory work of Umpire Mullane in
this city last week. Mullane's work dur
ing the entire series was. a 'clear proof
that he was incompetent-for an official In
baseball games.
The Portland Club filed a verbal pro
test against the umpire after the Sunday
game, but nothing resulted from It. Later
President "Whitemore handed a written
protest to League President Lucas. Mr.
Lucas left the city without taking any
notice of the protest of the Portland Club,
and it is not known just what action ho
will take In the matter. Tacoma has also
filed a written protest, and Manager
Grim, of the Spokane team. said, while
he was here, that he would do the same.
Mr. Lucas Is right in sustaining the
umpire in any decisions that he may
make, or in any fines that he -may impose.
But Mr. Lucas should employ competent
umpires to officiate at the games, and
Mr. Mullane is certainly not competent.
The patrons of the game are deserving
of better treatment. If the umpires can
not make fair decisions, the people do
not care to see the games, and by em
ploying such men as Mullane. the game
Is bound to suffer. Mr. Lucas, who has
the hiring of the umpires, should. In Jus
tice to the directors of the league, and
to the baseball public, hire men who will
uphold the standard of the game, .and he
should, at the earliest possible moment,
find a competent successor for Tony Mul
lane. Mr. Mullane cannot be accused of be
ing a partial umpire. His decisions favor
one team no more than the other. But
whenever he made a raw decision, he. In
nearly every case, tried to even the mat
ter by deciding the next time In favor of
the opposite side. However, the fact
that Mr. Mullane's decisions were unfair
Is no excuse for the conduct 'displayed by
several of the Portland players last week,
and for the conduct of Manager Vigneux.
Mr. Mullane was umpire of the game, and
was entitled to all respect while he held
that position. Bad language and rowdyism
result only In fines and suspensions; and
the president of the league Is bound to
sustain the decisions, whether they are
bad or not, or the game would soon fall
Into the hands of the players, and the
best kicker would get the best of the
game.
In speaking of the subject. President
Whitemore, of the Portland Club, said,
last night: "Yes. I said that I would not
put the Portland team on the field here
with Mullane as umpire, and Mr. Baker,
president of the Tacoma Club, has agreed
to do the same in his city. I Informed
Mr. Lucas to that effect last Sunday. He
said that he saw nothing wrong In the
work of Umpire Mullane.
"Mullane cannot umpire either here or
in Tacoma again, even If the matter has
to be taken up with the directors of the
league. "We cannot afford to have him
officiate. The people expect to see fair
umpiring, and if they do not, they will
not attend the games, and the league will
be a failure. "We cannot deliver the
patrons of the game good ball with such
a man as umpire, and if those who at
tend the baseball games are to be catered
to, Umpire Mullane's servjees must be
dispensed with."

HOW O'BRIEN WHIPPED NEILL.
California Champion Not in It nt Any
Stngre of the Game.
The Chicago Chronlclcof Saturday con
tains the following account of the
O'Brien-Neill fight:
" 'Philadelphia' Jack O'Brien -not only
knocked out Al. Nelll In their fight last
nlgfit at the Wabash Athletic Club's" arena,
but he knocked him out of the ring com
pletely, and in such a manner that the
great crowd thought Nelll must "be seri
qusly hurt. But the California boxer got
up In short order, and did not seem to
be much the worse for his horribly rough
treatment.
"O'Brien is a great fighter. Ho showed
his class by whipping Nelll In a hurricane
fight that certainly was one of the fastest
and hardest ever seen In this city. It was
a case of slugging right from the start
of the go. The men stood up toe to toe,
and g&ve each other some of the hardest
whacks Imaginable. O'Brien Is so much
faster than Nelll that he made the Coast
champion look like a novice.
"It is true that Nelll has a great right
hand punch, and once, in the first round,
he managed to get the punch In on
O'Brien's head, staggering the Eastern
man In a pronounced manner. Jack fell
back against the ropes, and Nelll under
took to follow up his advantage. As soon
as he was near enough he got a couple
of clips on the Jaw that made his knees
weak, and he was glad to stand off and
box with O'Brien. .
"The men were In the ring for an even
hour before they got to fighting, and the
crowd grew wildly nervous over the de
lay. It was NelU's fault. He would not
have anybody for referee. . . .
"Then there was a lot of trouble about
a decision. It was announced that tho
men had agreed that if both were on their
.feet the fight was to bo callod a draw.
The hooting and hissing were awful from
I the big crowd, and O'Brien stepped, out
of his corner and said that ho was going
to fight for a decision.
"It was 11:30 o'clock when they shaped
up for the fight. O'Brien dashed In at
once and landed a stinging left on NelU's
face Then there came a yreat rally in
the center of the ring, and the crowd
grew frantic over the fight. It was the
first blow that won O'Brien the contest,
for he had Nelll going from that time on.
Nell! tried time and again to get in that
great right swing of his, and once landed
It back of O'Brien's ear, sending Jack
spinning back and against the ropes. But
the advantage was so temporary that it
was forgotten a moment after, O'Brien
coming back with such a number of wal
lOps that Nelll was quickly dazed.
"O'Brien continued his advantage in the
second round, and it was plain then that
the fight would not last long. He pound
ed Nelll In the fact with such a shower of
blows that the Coast champion could
scarcely get his breath. Soon his left eye
hung out the early-closing sign, and sud
denly tho boy was toppled to the floor
with a clean left hook to the Jaw. He
closed the round in bad order.
"The end came toward the end of the
third round. O'Brien seemed a little
tired from his vigorous efforts, but he
went right at Nelll without a cessation
of hostilities. Nelll was in a bad way,
but he kept swinging his right and left
in a most threatening manner. O'Brien
was not to be caught, however, and sud
denly, getting Nelll right, he shot his
short Jolt over to tho Jaw, and Nelll per
formed a heavy back somersault, right
through the ropes.
"A cry of horror went up from the
crowd, for it seemed that Nelll must be
badly hurt. Referee Gilmore counted him
out and then declared O'Brien the winner.
A moment later Nelll recovered and
walked back Into tho ring. He suffered
no ill effect from tho fall."
PENDLETON BEATS BERKELEY.
Score "Was 3 to 1 Pitchers for Both
Teams Effective.
PENDLETON, Or., June 10 One of tho
best games of baseball ever played here
was that of today between the University
of California and Pendleton. The home
team won by a score of 3 to L The game
was the fastest and snappiest of the sea
son. The star feature was the catch of
Wlllnor, right fielder, and his throwing
the ball to third base, cutting off a run
ner. This play created a sensation, and
when Wlllnor came to the bench he was
given an ovation.
In the first Inning Pendleton brought
one man over the plate, California one in
the third. There was no more scoring un
til the eighth, when Stovall. first base
man for Pendleton, started the inning
with a bunt. With the bases full, with
but two men out, Zeigler, captain, who
had been.on tho bench, came to the bat
Instead of Rhea, catcher. He lined out a
single, bringing in two runs.
The individual play of all members of
both teams was snappy. The visitors put
4 up tho best team work of any team that
has played here. Their pitcher, Williams,
is a whirlwind, but slightly erratic at
times. Hayes and Taylor did good work,
especially at critical times. They struck
out 13 men. Pendleton's aggregation are
now top-notchers, having defeated all the
teams they have played

the arrival of a brace of bloodhounds this
morning from Walla Walla, in charge of
M. E. Carson, a cuard at the Washington
State Penitentiary. The. hounds , were
taken, to tho residence of Roberts, where
they obtained the scent from the discarded
clothing of the prisoners and started on
the tralL The men were traced several
blocks, but the hounds lost the scent near
the Blind School. They were then taken
to the stable whence the stolen horses
had been taken. The animals located the
scent and dashed Into the stable and Into
tho stalls from which the horses had been
taken, proving conclusively that the
horses were stolen by none other than
Tracy and Merrill. During the afternoon
the hounds were taken to the State "Peni
tentiary, where they were given tho blank
ets used by the two convicts as a means
of familiarizing them with the scent.
Owing to the depth of the dust and the
fact that the convicts evidently left Salem
mounted, the hounds were unable to fol
low the scent but a few yards beyond the
stable. A further search with the hounds
about Salem was then abandoned.
SHOT IN SPIRTr OF REVENGE,
i
Guards Ferrell and Tiffany Had In
curred Enmity of Convicts.
SALEM, Or., Juno 10. Tho deliberate
and cold-blooded murder of Guards Fer
rell and Tiffany yesterday had for Its
purpose In part, at least revenge for
Tracy and Merrill. These two desper
adoes, during the time of their incar
ceration, were assigned to work In tho
foundry. They were indolont, disagreeable
men, and considered dangerous; in fact,
both wore "Oregon boots' a majority of
the time. Their deportment was so bad
that the guards who were overseers In
the foundry frequently had to report them
to the prison officials, with the result that
the management often punished the re
fractory prisoners." Thus,' In discharging
their duty, Ferrell and Tiffany Incurred
the enmity of these two convicts, who had
revenge yesterday morning.

Tracer at the Head of a Gang: Which
Escaped There.
SALT LAKE. June 10. Harry Tracey.
who, with David Merrill, shot and killed
four men. while escaping from the state
prison at Salem, Or., Monday, has served
time in the Utah Penitentiary, but
escaped from custody with four other
desperate criminals, none of whom has
ever-beon .recaptured. Ho 1b well known
to the polico of-thls city. In 1S37, Tracey
wag sentenced to a term of one year for
burglar, but remained in prison only
two months. While a member of the
work-gang, which was operated at the
penitentiary, he held up the guard at the
point of a revolver, and, with three oth
ers, got safely away.
The gang had been taken out as usual
that morning' and put to work at a rock
quarry. Four of the convicts were under
the charge of Guard John Van Stetter,
and Tracey was one of the four. The
guard was armed with a double-barreled
shotgun, and remained at a dlstanco from
the prisoners. Various devices were re
sorted to by the prisoners to divert the
attention of the guard, but all were futile.
Tracey's shovel, however, finally was
bent, and Van Stetter approached to as
sist in mending It. The men stood side
by side, too close for the use of a long
barreled shotgun. Suddenly, Tracey drew
a revolver from his convict's Jacket and
covered the guard with the weapon.
Commanding the guard to remove his
clothing, and taking his gun, Tracey
donned the uniform of the guard, and,
with three other prisoners, walked boldly
away. They kept the guard covered with
a revolver until they passed from view.
A posse scoured the country, but none of
tho men was ever found.
Leaving tho quarry, the escaped con
victs separated, Tracey and a convlcf
named Lent going In the direction of Par
ley s Canon. They held up a man and
his wife, who wcro driving- In their direc
tion and securing their buggy escaped
into Colorado, whero they killed a young
ranchman with whom they had quarreled.
For this crime Tracey was captured by
Colorado officers and placed In Jail, but
escaped after beating three guards Into
insensibility. He was retaken, and kept
in custody for two weeks, when he again
escaped after almost killing a guard by
clubbing him on the head. Since his sec
ond escape nothing was heard of the man
until he became notorious by his crimes
In Oregon.
TRACY WANTED IN COLORADO.
Murder, Robbery and Horsestealing:
Charges Against Him.
DENVER. June 10. Harry Tracy, who
with Dave Merrill, killed three guards and
then escaped from the Oregon Peniten
tiary. Is wanted in Colorado to answer
charges of murder, robbery and horse
stealing. He was nbout to be- tried for
the murder of Valentine Hoye, a wealthy
cattleman of Routt County, when he
bound and gagged the Sheriff at Aspen,
Colo., obtained his liberty and left for
Oregon. Tracy was a leader in the once
notorious "Hole In the Wall" or Powder
Springs gang of outlaws that Infested the
northwestern corner of Routt County, near
the Utah and Wyoming lines. The mur
der of William Strong, a boy, caused the
citizens of Western Colorado to demand
the extermination of the gang. A posse of
Sheriffs was formed and war declared
on the desperadoes. When the posse en
countered the outlaws a desperate battle
was " fought. Several were wounded on
each side. Hoye, a member of the posse,
was killed. Four outlaws were afterward
captured by a pos3e made up of Utah
militia and Colorado cowboys, led by Dep
uty Sheriff Farnham. Jack Bennett, the
first to be captured, was believed to be the
murderer of Strong, and he was lynched
near the Colorado line. Tracy, Land and
P. L. Johnstone were taken Into custody
near Powder Springs after a hdt fight.
Johnstone was taken to Wyoming, where
he was afterward tried and sentenced for
life. Tracy and Land were convicted at
Aspen, but subsequently escaped.
Have Record at Olympla.
OLYMPIA. June 10. Harry Tracy and
Dave Merrlir. who escaped from the Ore
gon Penitentiary at Salem, are both well
known in Olympla, where on December
15, 1S99, they held up Constable Safley, who
was sent to the railroad station to escort
them before the Chief of Police. When
Safley asked them to come along they
made no apparent resistance, but asked
to see a companion down the track. They
had not gone far when one of them told
Safley to hold up his hands, and Safley,
finding himself looking into the muzzles of
two revolvers In the hands of desperate
men, laid down his revolver, which the
hold-up men appropriated to thjeir own
use, and escaped, only to bo recaptured
a few months later in Portland.
Probably Done Time in Montana.
PEER LODGE, Mont, June 10. A
search, of the state prison records here
failed to reveal the name of David Mer
rill, one of the operators In yesterday's
tragedy at Salem, Orv and who Is said to
have once served a term here. However,
the prison authorities believe that he was
simply serving time In Salem under an
other name, and they are also of the opin
ion that his pal. Harry Tracy, has also
done time here.
PORTLAND POLICE ALERT.
Detectives Are Guarding Every Ap
proach to the City.
If Merrill and Tracy, who murdered
three guards at the Oregon penitentiary
Monday morning, make tracks for Port
land, as their movements indicate, they
wlll be warmly received. An arsenal con
taining repeating rifles and ammunition
has been established within easy call of
the police station, so that policemen and
detectives can more strongly arm. them
selves. In addition, to the weapons they
usually carry.
"If Merrill and Tracy were ordinary
criminals, they would not possibly head
for Portland, but the prisoners aro out
of the ordlnap," said Chief of Polico
McLauchlan to an Oregonian man last
night. "It Is difficult to say what they
are planning to do, and they may make
their way over the mountains to East
ern Oregon. But to get out of ths coun
try and escape by train or boat they
would possibly com here. They want
food and clothing, and these could bo ob
tained better In this town than by re
maining In the country districts. We
have every chance of entry and exit
guarded, and you can rest assured that
all precautions have been taken. They
may come down the river in a boat.
Early In 1S99 when the detectives went to
Mrs. Merrill's house at Front and Mar
ket streets to arrest Merrill and Tracy
the latter escaped by walking out the
back door, out the alley, stealing a boat
and rowing to Llnnton. There they took
the Northern Pacific train to Tacoma or
Seattle, but they again returned to this
city, where they were afterward arrested.
"The Police Department sent copies of
the photographs of Merrill and Tracy In
our possession to the Salem penitentiary,
so that these could be distributed through
out that part of tho country and enable
people to see what tho escaped prisoners
look like. Photographs of the pair have
also been placed in front of a store on
Third street, near Stark. Superintendent
Lee, of the penitentiary, will get every
possible help from us should the crim
inals come this way. The penitentiary
officials are in constant communication
with us, advising us of the latest develop
ments. It Is possible that Tracy, espe
cially, will try to come to Portland to see
his wife, -who lives In Wnltechapel. There
ought to be bloodhounds kept at the peni
tentiary all the time. If bloodhounds had
been there when the convicts made their
escape, Ierrlll and Tracy would prob
ably have been caught before now. The
criminals got too much of a start."
Detective Joseph Day was next Inter
viewed. He was a guard at the Salem
Penitentiary for nearly 11 months In 1SS7,
and is familiar with the routine Inside the
walls. "It Is quite possible that Merrill
and Tracy may come to Portland," said
Mr. Day. "They will be safer In a town
than in tho country where every stranger
J is usually pointed at. I reason that they
would strike Portland because they want
food and clothing, and will probably try
to get on board some train or vessel.
They can't go on mifch longer holding up
people and getting food by robbing houses
and stores in that district. "What is the
first thlrig I would recommend to try to
effect their capture? I would suggest the
offering of a larger reward, with the stip
ulation that any person giving Informa
tion which would lead to the capture
would be entitled to a share of the re
ward. That will make people work and
bring them forward. Both Merrill and
Tracy know the country in and around
Portland well. Merrill was brought up at
Vancouver, Wash. There Is a belt of tim
ber between Gervals and Silverton,
through which the convicts can move
quietly and without much danger to
themselves, if they are coming down the
Valley. But It Is possible they will get
lost in the woods, because a man walk
ing through timber, and when he does not
know the outs and ins. Invariably comes
out at the very place where he started.
"I am surprised that Merrill and
Tracy were not kept apart at the peni
tentiary. They should not have been al
lowed to be near each other to hatch
trouble. They evidently planned the
whole affair In advance. I was recently
at the penitentiary on business, and saw
Merrill. He nodded to me. The peni
tentiary wall is 22 feet high, and tho
armed guards walk on the outside of the
wall. Only the upper portion of tho
guard's body is visible from the Inner
yard as he goes along the plank walk.
Inside there is a dead line of 20 feet, and
when a new convict arrives at the instl
tution he Is shown this dead lino and
told that It at any time he steps over It,
for any reason whatever. It means death!
The guards have regular target practice
to enable them to shoot straight, and, they
4 practice at about a distance of 125 yards
ut a niuris every jnursaay. They are
armed with repeating rifles, and these
rifles are regularly inspected to see that
they are in order. I think that a guard
at Salem should be. selected for his
nerve, character and good marksmanshln.
without regard to his politics, and a good-
guaru snoum not be removed without
cause. The pay Is only 540 per month
with board. -It should be ?e0 with board)
to get the right sort of men. They take
their lives In their hands. Every guard
at Salem works H hours per day, on the
average, and convicts are not allowed out
side on foggy days. At San Quentln peni
tentiary, California, there are Gatllng
guns ready to pour out lead at a mo
ment's notice."

TRIED THE WATER CURE
MEMBERS OF GLENN COURT-MARTIAL
RETURN TO MANILA.
Fear of Death From Stransrulntis
Possessed Those to Whom It
Wits Administered.
MANILA, Monday, June 9. The mem
bers of the court-martial which tried
Major Edwin F. Glenn, of the Fifth In
fantry, who was charged with admin
istering the water-cure to Filipinos, have
returned to Manila. The court held Its
sessions at Catbalong, Island of Samar.
The Glenn court-martial refused to admit
evidence from places outside of the Phil
ippine Islands, which was brought for
ward to show tha practices similar to
the water-cure had been conducted by
the police of New York City, In 18IM, when
Brigadier-General F. D. Grant was one
of the Police Commissioners. General
Grant was president of the Glenn court
martial. Major Glenn, Surgeons Jones, Rhodes
and Beal and Lieutenant Connor testified
that they had taken the water-cure, that
It was. not dangerous, but that It pro
duced a fear of death by strangulation la
the man to whom it was administered.
Major Charles J. Crane, of the Adjutant-General's
Department, testified that
in his opinion Major Glenn's work In tho
Island of Panay had done more than that
of any other one man, with tho excep
tion of the efforts of. General R. P.
Hughes, to bring about the successful
pacification of the island. Major Crane,
said he regarded It as Impossible to ob
tain information from the natives with
out coercion, and that he regarded Ma
jor Glenn's work at Igbaras as the open
ing wedge which led to the pacification
of the first large territory In the Philip
pine Archipelago.
Colonel Nicolas Roces, of the Native
Constabulary, testified that he gave sev
eral of his men 10 days' furlough on ac
count of the fact that they were suffering
from dengue fever; that these men were
caught by American soldiers, -who gave
them the" water cure, and that the men
returned In three days' time fully recov
ered from the effects of the fever. Colonel
Roces said these men now thought the
water cure was a good fever remedy.
At tho trial by court-martial of First
Lieutenant Julian E. Gaujot, of the Tenth
Cavalry, who was tried on charges simi
lar to those preferred against Major
Glenn, the Lieutenant admitted all tho
charges and said he considered the re
sults obtained amply justified the methods
employed.
Lieutenant Norman E. Cook, of tho Phil
ippine Scouts, who was tried by court
martial for manslaughter on the charge
of having ordered the execution of three
natives, denied that he had given orders
to this effect, and declared that the men
In question were shot without his knowl
edge while endeavoring to escape.
NOBODY STOOD UP.
A New Street-Car Conductor's
Scheme Failed to Work.
Old streetcar conductors sometimes
have a great deal of trouble with their
"understudies." It is the custom of the
Indianapolis company to "break In" new
men by sending them out over the lines
with experienced employes who have been
long in the service. This is done In order
to train the new men to act as substitutes
or "extras." Recently a Brightwood line
conductor, says the Indianapolis Journal,
had one of the "new men in charge. On
the first trip the beginner was shown how
to collect fares, how the rod connecting
with the indicator should be manipulated
to show a ticket, how It should be worked
to Indicate a cash fare, and how the trip
reports should be made, out, in the mean
time teaching- him the names of the strees
and when to call them. On the next trip
the understudy thought he had learned
his part so well ho asked permission to
run tho. car himself under supervision.
Tho old conductor watched the new man
collect the fares, and saw that he missed
a number. When he returned to the rear
of the car he was Informed that-, he was
five short that there were 30 passengers
and he had collected only 25 fares. With
out waiting for further advice the new
man put his head in the door of the car
and shouted:
"All who have not paid their fares will
please stand up." Not a passenger moved.
Perhaps they were too amazed probably
as much astonished as the old conductor.
The sjlence was becoming almost painful.
Finally a suburbanite nudged his neigh
bor and asked him why he didn't stand up.
"Can't He." was the reply. "I'm honest.
Paid my fare,"
By this time the humor of the situation
began to dawn on the other passengers.
The men laughed and the women smiled
all except five girls in the front part of
the car, who were so busy talking they
had not heard the new conductor's
"stand-up" order, nor witnessed what fol
lowed. One of the girls had a bunch, of
transfer tickets partly concealed in a
glove. The old conductor knew where
the missing fare3 were and had Intended
to tell the new man, but the latter did
not give him time. The Incident was end
ed by the old conductor walking to the
talkative girls and saying, "Fares,
please," as if nothing had happened. The
transfers were surrendered without tho
girls knowing an attempt had been made
to Introduce an innovation la street-car
ethics.
