Tacoma SI 45 .40S The Spokane team went to pieces In the last half of the third inning yester day, allowing Portland seven runs, thus giving the home nine the game and inci dentally the scries. The Spokane lads were only able to cross the home plate three times during the nine Innings, but they kept Portland to a goose-egg In every one except the third, so that the final pcore stood 7 to 3. The game was a good one from a spectator's standpoint, and the Portland players did their best toput up good ball from "the time that the first " Bphere went over the plate. McLaughlin went to the bat first for the Bunchgrassers, and only lacked one ball of having enough to get a pass to first, when a nice one came along right where ae wanted it. Ho couldn't resist the temptation, so he hit it on the nose for three bases. Bight out past first it went. Just out of Weed's reach and about a foot inside the bag. By the time Zelgler rot his hands on it McLaughlin was safo on third. Ferris went out on a popfiy to Bngle, and Reltz stepped into the box. He knocked the ball where he thought that Engle was not. but that gentleman rrabbed it Just in time, and, after some little dancing and jumping. McLaughlin ivas put out between third base and home ind Reltz was stopped before he got to tecond. "When Portland came to the bat Maxle Muller struck out, Van Buren hit the ball, but found It waiting ior him when he got to first, and Anderson fol lowed Mullers example with three swipes at the air. The crowd did not like Col Fan's Judgment at all, and did not hesi tate 4X say so. He didn't seem to care a hit, but kept on calling balls and strikes in the same tone that the fire whistle uses to announce a fire In the First Ward. In the second Elsey seemed on the point of fanning when he changed his mind and knocked a foul that Catcher Shea easily nabbed. Donahue hit hard out past Har ris, who watched the ball go by his feet In a very dejected manner. His failure to stop It counted for nothing, however, for the runner tried to go down with Engle's arm, but wasr not fast enough, and got out i on second. ilcKevitt went out on a long fly to Van Buren. Weed got as far as second In the last half, .but was put out while Shea was preparing to bat. In the disastrous third inning Howells went out on a fly to Zelgler; Frary. who batted in Grlm's place and caught during the game, struck out. and Pfelster died on first. Then came the delude. Shea came up fqr Portland and hit out over third, getting one base. Deisel took his place, as he was suffering from a lame leg. Deleel went to second, while Engle went to first on a short hit Muller hit to Pfelster, but Elsey dropped the ball on first and everybody, Muller Included, got one base on the error. Van Buren made a nice hit over second, and by the time he got to first Delsel and Engle were both home, with Muller hugging second and Anderson at the bat. He hit for one bag and got another on an error, while Muller crossed the plate, making the third that had done so In this Inning, with no one yet out Zelgler made a beautiful hit over the shortstop's head, bringing in Van Buren and Anderson, and getting third himself while Donahue was trying to do some fancy juggling for the edification of the grandstand. In the meantime Weed went out on first, Harris reached second on fl. left field hit and Zelgler made the sixth tally, while Delsel went out on a fly. Relti muffed Shea's fly, letting Har ris make home, and giving the batter flrst, where Delsel took his place. It was En gle's turn. Hut he knocked a fly to Pfelst er, and brought an end to a 'ery spec tacular inning, tho features of which were seven runs, Ave safe hits and four errors. The small boy at the tallyboard had a hard time finding the figure "7," as it had not been used for such a long time. In tho fourth Spokane got her flrst run, by Ferris, who reached flrst on a muffed fly to Harris and made home on a three bagger by Elsey. The Portland players wet out in quick succession, only one (Van Buren) getting past flrst. For the Bunchgrassers Frary made a two-bagger in the opening of the fifth, but no one got home In that Inning. Port land repeated the performance of the fourth. In the sixth McLaughlin made a hit and was followed in quick succession "by Fer ris. Reltz made a two-bagger, but was put out trying to got third, while the two runners were scoring. The next two up at the bat were each thrown but at first. Engle, for Portland, reached second, but got ho farther. In the seventh McLaughlin went out on a fly to Anderson, and Howells did the same thing wrlth Weed. Frary planted a two-baser .in Muller's back yard, but couldn't score. In the last of this Inning and the first of the eighth no one got past first but Elsey, who made a long two bagger, one of the longest ever made on this field. When Harris camo to the bat for Portland he was presented with a copy of the War Cry, but even this touching gift did not make him brace up, for he struck out as soon as possible. The rest of the game was limited to pop flies and efforts to reach first, which wero for the most part unsuccessful. The final score stood 7 to 8 In the home team's favor.' Engle pitched good ball. The 12 hits that were made off him -were well scat tered, and the score shows that the Spo kane people could make very little from them. The flrst time he went to the bat he received a beautiful pair of elk-tooth cuff buttons from an admirer a very pretty gift. The Portland team as a whole did very well, -and not an error is to their credit, or discredit. In the column. Colgan seems to be a little rusty on the game, or his eyes are- bad, tor he was rather far off in some of his decisions as regards balls and strikes yesterday.' The Bcore: PORTLAND. N 1 AB. R. H. PO.

Harmon was wild at the start today, and four bases on balls,, with his bad throw to second, helped Seattle get four runs Jn the first Inning. The game was never thereafter in doubt, for Hogg was steady as a clock and re ceived great support. Letcher made a wonderful running one-handed catch of a fly from Klopfs bat in the eighth, and in the ninth Campbell made a hard stop, falling down, yet getting the ball to Bab bitt in time to catch Andrews; while Bab bitt whipped It to flrst in -tkhe to get McCarthy.

American League Officials Clean Up Unfinished Business. CLEVELAND, Aug. 14. An important meeting of the board of directors of the American League was held at the Hol lenden today, the session lasting nearly five hours. The meeting was called by President Ban Johnson for the purpose of discussing the plans of tho league and to make a report on the season as far as it has gone. Tho meeting was purely an executive one, and none besides the di rectors, with the exception of Vice-President Charles W. Soroers, was able to en ter the room. Every member of the board was present, which Is made up as fol lows: B. .F. Shlbe, of Philadelphia; P. J. KUHlea, of Boston; Charles A. Comlskey, of Chicago, and John F. Kllfoyle, of Cleveland. That the meeting must have been of more Importance than the mem bers of the board Intimated was proved by tho length of the proceedings. But when asked If anything had been done. President Johnson said that a lot of un finished business had been cleaned up and only the business of the league was fin ished. Discussing the amalgamation story sent out from Chicago, Mr. Johnson said: "There Is absolutely no chance for an amalgamation between the American League and the National League. We are not at present engaged In picking up dead timber. Business during the past two years has prospered as It never prospered before, and the American League has reaped the benefit of prosperity. In fact, no organization has done so well as the American." COQUILLE WINS PEXXAXT. Xeckand-Xeck Race in Coos County League. COQUILLE, Aug. 14.

He was not .good enough to win on strokes alone, however, and Larned took the trophy again by a straight victory. 'In the Doherty-Whltman match Do herty won the flrst match, set, 6-3, and Whitman the second, 6-3. At the close of the match the two parties decided to withdraw from the tournament, and R. F. Doherty defaulted to Larned. while the champion of all England, H. L. Do herty, defaulted to Dr. Pitt. In view of this action, the committee decided to put on tho match between Larned, tho Amer ican, and Dr. Pitt, tho Briton, at once, and thus decide the holding of the Long Island championship title in the singles. The afternoon was devoted to the championship doubles and mixed doubles. Summary of the day's finals: Championship singles, final round and championship match William A. Larned defeated Dr. Joshua Pitt, 6-2, 6-4, 6-3. Championship doubles, final round In championship match R. F. Doherty and H. L. Doherty defeated Malcolm D. Whit man and William Larned, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3.
