HELENA, Mont. Augr. 27 (Special.)
Grievous and palpable muflfo by Hanni
van, McGIlllgan. Flannery and Slagle, and
a wild throw to second by Sullivan cost
Helena the opening game In the Portland
eerite this afternoon by a score of G to 4.
While the batting honors were even,
Helena's hits were more opportunely
placed, yet her errors were decidedly
yellow and costly. Helena contributed
three fast doubles and McGIlllgan a lost
chance for another.
"Weed and Peebles were the star
strikers today, each connecting safely
three times, one of the former's being a
beautiful double which brought in two
runs after Slagle muff, which should
have retired the lde.
Portland scored three runs In the third.
Delsel flew out to Schmeer, while Hannl
van muffed Engel'a drive. Zelgler hit
safely for two bags and "Van Buren's
scratch single advanced Zelgler to third.
Anderson then hit to Holly, who threw
Zelgler out at the plate. Sullivan threw
to Slagle in an attempt to head off An
derson at second, but the pitcher muffed
the throw, scoring Van Buren. Schmeer
threw to the plate to catch Anderson and
while Sullivan apparently had time to
make the put-out, he threw Instead V
third, to catch Weed, who was stretch
ing his double Into a triple. Both men
were declared safe.
Portland scored two more In the sixth
on singles of "Weed. .Vigneux and Muller.
and Sullivan's bad throw over second,
which allowed Weed and Vigncux to
score.
In the eighth. Weed singled, as did Vig
ncux. ilullcr then hit the. ball to center
field, which McGIlllgan dropped In rais
ing his arm to complete a double at sec
ond, and Weed scored.
For Helena in the second. Holly sln
gled, went to second on Sullivan's single
and made a daring steal to third. Sulli
van stole second and both scored on
Peeble's single. Shaffer was out of the
game, Flannery covering first, which
weakened the outfield. In the fourth.
Peebles singled, went to third on a wild
pitch and Scored on Slagle'a single. In
the fifth. Holly singled. Sullivan then
drove out a terrific double, scoring Holly.
Portland's errors were not costly. Vlg
neux made the most sensational catch of
a foul fly ever senhere and was given a
veritable oration. Score:

American to Invade New York.
NEW YORK. Aug. 27. For more than
three months it has been the ambition of
the American League owners to establish
a baseball club in Greater New York, says
the Herald. Since the early part of July
residents or the Borough of the Bronx
who thought a professional baseball nine
might thrive there have been in corre
spondence with the American League of
ficials, asking their co-operation toward
such a movement.
They are said to have been encouraged
to the extent that if they will provide the
grounds the American League will provide
the players. Grounds which are suitable
are hard to obtain, but a site is now said
to be under consideration, and plans are
being matured for Its purchase.
Manager Clark Griffith, of the Chicago
American League baseball club, has signed
Williams, Selbach and Gilbert, of the Bal
timore club, for next season, according to
a World dispatch from Baltimore. These
players are said to understand they arp
wanted for an American League team to
be placed In New York next year.

LARNED TENNIS CHAMPION
DOHERTY GOES HOME WITHOUT
COVETED HOXOR.
High Temperature Was too Much f or
the Englishman and He Lost
His Grip.
NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 27. For the third
time in eight years. English aspirations
for the highest American tennis honors in
singles have been dashed when they
seemed almost within reach of the per
sistent foreigners, for today William A.
Larned. of .Summit, N. J., successfully
defended his title as champion by defeat
ing Reginald F. Doherty, of England, three
sets to one. The scores were: 4-, 6-2,
0-4. 8-6.
It W8s a grand game on both sides, but
it sapped the vitality of each player, until
it became a question of endurance, and
the American proved to be in oetter con
dition. A scorching sun was no unlmpor- j
tant factor In the result, and at the end
Doherty. unused to such hot rays, almost
collapred. It was generally acknowledeed
that had the day been cool like those of
last week, the battle would have been
fought longer, harder, and perhaps "-with
a different result. Larned, however, played
the game of his life, for Doherty is un
doubtedly the strongest player who ever
came to America.
The defoat of the Englishman was not
only a surprise, but a bitter disappoint
ment to the Doherty brothers. Tne-team
just missed capturing the Davis trophy,
and now to be beaten for the American
ctiamplonshlp. when It seemed almost
theirs, accentuated their disappointment.
They will not go home empty-handed,
however, for the pair are the American
champions in doubles, and next year they
will return, not only to defend this title,
but for another chance at the more Impor
tant single championship.
The Englishman was outplayed, prob
ably for the first time in his life; at every
point. Larned was stronger at the net,
covered court far better, proved a sterling
baseline player, and when the strain came
in the ihird and fourth sets showed him
self to be In magnificent condition.
Lamed seemed nervous in the first game,
while Doherty was cool. Outs and er
rors, however, predominated, the Ameri
can making more than the Englishman.
The set resulted: Doherty. 6; Larned. 4.
Although Doherty was within a point of
the first game in the second set, Larned
made It deuce and won It.
He foliowi-d It up by taking the next, to
the renewed delight of the crowd. Tle
Englishman seemed badly affected by the
Min, ac the breeze had fallen. Twice his
racquet slipped in his hand, and he did
not seem to go after the balls with his ac
customed lite. Larned. on the other hand,
was right on his toes, playing with a dash
thnt ttt thp crowd wild. He Judsred some
of Dohertv'a puts to perfection.' The sec
ond 5et resulted: Larned. u; uoneriy, z.

to be saving himself for a critical penoa.
rnm ha -milked deliberately out of the
court without wailing to return the shot
which Larned was In the act of making.
Doherty acted Just as Whitman did before
he collapsed yesterday. On place shots,
Larned finally won the necessary two
games in succession and won the set, 6-4.
After the seven-mmutc rest taKen aner
th thlrrt xtt. Dnhertv seemed considerably
xefreshed. but Larned was fresher and had
more spring to his step. The excitement
was at the highest pitch when Larned
won the ninth game and was within a
game of the championship. But Doherty
vena nnt vt bftatpn. for he made the next
game, and the games were five all. Larned
took the sixth, a love game, ana again
was within a game of championship hon
ors, but Doherty was a stayer, ana ai-
itifliich Tirnr1 vras ncaln within two
strokes of the matoh, the Englishman
made the game six an. J-araea won ine
next, and then took the set and the cham-

which were closed at midnight Monday so
far as the city horses were concerned, will
be kept open until about Saturday, by
which time it is thought that all entries
from outside cities will have been re
ceived. So far a number of entries have
been received for the Irvlngton meeting,
which will begin on September 22. Crls
Simpson and H. H. Helman. the lessees
of the track, are now In Seattle with their
horses, and It Is said that they will return
with a large batch of entries. Secretary
Porter, of the Track Association, says the
list of events will be well filled. Secretary
Wisdom, of the State Board of Agricul
ture, is also In Seattle, where he has been
acting as one of the racing Judges. He
has received a number of entries for the
State Fair races, and he will prepare-a
list when he returns home.
It is not known Just when the Portland
horsemen will return home. The Seattle
meeting will close today, but there Is a
possibility of races tomorrow and Satur.
day. and also on Labor day. The Vancou
ver meeting will open Saturday and will
continue Monday, but as the British Col
umbians favor the runners and have com
paratively little liking for the harness
racers, probably only a few Oregon and
Washington horsemen will attend if. It is
likely that most of them will improvise
some sort of a matinee programme for
Seattle until September 3, when the What
com meeting will begin. The Whatcom
races will end on the 6th. and Everett has
named dates from the 8th to the 13th. In
clusive. A number of Oregon horses have
been entered for tre latter meeting and
it Is probable that their owners will stay
over to witness the contests and get a
line on the other horses. As the State
Fair will open on the 15th, all will leave
Everett after the conclusion of the races
on the 13th. Salem will close on the 20th.
and the races at Irvlngton Park. Portland,
will open on the 22d and end on the 27th.

Game Warden Will Enforce Law
Afralnst Sunday Duck-Shooters.
A number of sportsmen, who beltevo that
as the last day of August will be Sunday,
they may safely go duck-shooting, may
possibly get Into trouble. State Game
Warden Qulmby says that he will rigidly
enforce the game law until the legal open
ing of the season. September 1. when any
one who can find them is at liber- to
shoot geese, ducks or swan.
The open season for upland birds will
begin October 1, so those who wish to hunt
the plover and Chinese pheasant must wait
until that date, not September 15, as many
suppose. There have been few violations
of the game laws reported as yet this
year, and 'he Warden believes that the
hunters of the state will prove themselves
true sportsmen enough to respect the
rights of the birds and other hunters and
wait until the proper time for shooting.
There are only six paid special deputies
throughout the state, besides the three
deputies for each county who receive no
salary, and thouxh the field cannot bo
completely covered, the law is well en
forced. Inland Lakes Regatta.

CONFIDENCE IN PALMA.
Cuban President Equal to the Emer
gency. NEW YORK. Aug. 27. Fifteen millions
are estimated as the Cuban Government' j
expenditure in the national budget whlcn
will be presented to Congress next month
and the national Income is placed, cables
the Havana correspondent of the Herald,
at $18,000,000, tho same as during the mili
tary occupation. This provides a surplus
of $3,000,000.
Confidence is steadily Increasing In Pres
ident Palma's ability to cope with the
situation. The Senate bill providing for a
national loan of $35,000,000, which went to
the House of Representatives two weeks
ago. Is still in the hands of the Houso
committee. The 3ugar planters strongly
favor the $4,000,000 loan In aid of agri
culture, but are Indifferent regarding the
proposed loan of $31,000,000 to pay bacs
salaries to the army. Members of the
disbanded army, on the contrary, support
the larger loan, but are lukewarm con
cerning the smaller. It Is generally be
lieved that the Interest and principal of
the smaller loan could be taken care of
under present conditions, but that tne
payment of the larger loan would requlra
an additional revenue to be raised prob
ably by a stamp tax.
The report of the commission which vis
ited Washington to confer with Secretary
Root about the Piatt amendment Is still
a secret document reserved for future
publication;
Senator Terry's resignation as Secre
tary of Agriculture has- been finally a-c-cepted.
