Two of his chances in today's game were of this order. Kadeau's work was also of the-star order in every way. He made two hlu In his three times at bat. and accepted four hard chances. In fact, all of the team played good ball, Harlow being the only one that was at all wild, and his errors were excusable. The universal opinion of tho fans of this city is that the Portland team will finish near the head of the possession, if they continue to Improve as they have during this series, for they are all ball players from the ground up.

SEATTLE LOST TWO GAMES. First Game Well"" Played, bat the Second Was Rotten. SAN FRANCISCO, April 12. -Seattle dropped both games to San Francisco to day. The afternoon play attracted a great crowd, and the poor exhibition met with pronounced disappointment from the gath ering. Pitcher Hickey. of Seattle, was at his worst, and was taken from the box after 11 bits had been scored against him. The visitors could not do anything with the curves of Hodson.

Interpretation Given by President Palltamv of Natlonala. NEW YORK. April li-In a circular to managers, captains and players .of the Na tional League and American League. President H. C Pulllam lays down Uie following constructions on such playing rules as are deemed susceptible of more than one Interpretation: Rule 29 (pitcher's position) The pitcher. In taking his position, shall place no part of either foot back of the rubber, nor shall he take more than one step In delivering the ball to the batsman. This construc tion does away with all preliminary steps either to the rear of or'to the side of the rubber. Rule 33, section S (balking) Construct as meaning that both feet of the catcher must be inside the catcher's lines. Rule 40 (batting) A foul tip must go sharp from the bat. If the ball rise from bat to catcher as In the case of attempted bunting of a 'very low ball, it will be ruled as a foul fly. Rule 46, -section 3 (batsman is out) The batsman will be declared out at once it he makes any motion or attempt at Interfer ence with the throwing of or the catching of the ball by the catcher. Rule 47. section 4 (becomes a baserunner) The batsman must make a palpable at tempt at being hit. In no case will he be allowed to become a runner as the result of being hit by a slowly delivered ball, the umpire to be a Judge of the speed of such ball. Rule BL section 6 (base runners are out) Attention of players is called to this rule, requiring runners to keep within the three foot lines In going to first, unless to avoid attempting to field a batted balL Rule 53 (catching) This rule Is con structed literally, and will be lnforced lit erally, with the exception of the Imposi tion of the $5 fine, in which case the print ed rules are In error. Rule 67 (field rules) Will be enforced literally. CAPTAIN' PAYNE CHEERFUL. Saya Eugene Has Some Yonnir Stock That Is Fast. UNIVERSITY- OF OREGON. Eugene. April 12. (Special) The 'varsity ath letes are working hard and saying little. "It Is impossible." said Captain Payne, "to know Just what the strength of Ore gon's athletic aggregation will be. but I expect to see some good records made when we pull oft our regular tryout the last of this month. The new men are showing irp exceptionally well, and the old "varsity heroes, who are only half practicing, will be obliged to change their tactics it they expect to travel with Ore gon this season. A large force Is at work on the new athletic field and beyond a doubt the local nnirerslty will have the best athletic arena in the sute when the work Is com pleted. The western end of the Klncald field is being raised four feet and the dirt that Is being used for this ouroose is absolutely free from stones. The super intendent or tne work supervised the lay ing of the University of Kansas track, and Is certainly doing a splendid job for Oregon. When the field Is completed. which the overseer says will be done be fore the Albany meet, it will be tile- drained and bleachers will be erected. ENTRIES AT HARTFORD. Entries Llabter, bnt the Quality Is "I a In Oak 7-12 1 Better. HARTFORD. Conn., April 12.

KNIGHT KEEPS MEN BUSY. Bad Weather Has Effect on Sonnd Collesilana Practice. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. April 12. (SpedaL) The closing weeks at the University of Washington promise to be exceedingly busy ones for the col legians In all departments of athletics. Coach Knight, who has now had com plete charge of the different sports for over a week, has between 50 and 73 men who are striving for honors on the ath letic track and on the baseball diamond. The weather has been so cold that tho "RACKER--DACHSHUND practice work has been rather slow, and If warmer weather does not soon greet the athletes the first games and con teats may prove to be poor exhibitions of athletic skill. Of the new men who are making excel lent showings in the sprinU'and the runs. Fowler, Thompson, Dana, Ford and Long fellow might be given very creditable mention. Fowler and Thompson will both run a good iCO-yard dash, and in the quarter Thompson may be a close com petitor to some of the old stars, while Fowler will likely also be a surprise in the 230-yard dash. Dana in the half mile Is keeping within close distance of Cap tain Pearson and should be able to pull a place for the "U In that event. Ford and Longfellow, Washington's two-mllers, are running side by side. Both are young sters, but are cutting the distance .under U minutes with comparative ease. Of the newcomers, however, the two men who will make the most brilliant exhibitions are undoubtedly Tlbbals and McCrory. Tlbbals entered the "U" with a glowing record, having (be reputation of being the best High-School athlete the State of Washington ever produced. ' It is also thought that young McCrory will establish a new Northwest record in the mile run. Scherer is continuing to Im prove in both the Weight events. On the baseball field the men. have not as yet begun to get into good condition. Speldell. Teats and Blinker are fully up to the standard that has been anticipated. but the rest of the bunch, while making fairly good showings, will be compelled to make marked Improvement if Wash ington is to have a championship aggre gation. In the practice games with P. N. L. League, the weakest part of the team seemed to be its batter), and it is expected that Coach Knight will keep the boys busy with the stick during the next two weeks of practice. The sport that is now attracting more attention than any other branch of the athletics is, beyond a doubt, rowing. The fact that the race with the University of uauiornia nas Decome practically a cer tainty has brought out a number of good men to compete for places at the oar.. The old gigs have been repaired and will be used up until about a week before the race, when it is hoped the University can secure another boat for the last few days of practice and for the day of the race. A few difficulties have yet to be over come before a contract can be signed with the Calltomlans. but if a couple of hun dred dollars can be raised from the citi zens of Seattle on or about June 1, the first Intercollegiate rowing to take place on the Pacific Coast will likely be pulled off In Seattle. The contest this Spring will be In a four-oared boat Instead of the eight, as both Institutions feel that they are new at the sport. AT INANIMATE TARGETS. Shooters for Great American Handi cap Tournament. KANSAS CITY. Mo, April 1 Cele brated shooters from all parts of this country are coming to this city on every train to take pxrt in the fourth annual Grand American Handicap Tournament, inanimate targets, which begins at Blue River Park, next Tuesday, and lasts four days. Everything Is in readiness for the tournament and it is exepected that the shoot will be the most successful at tar gets ever held In the history of the In terstate Association. Elmer Shaner. sec retary of the Interstate Association, speaking of the tournament, said: "From the present outlook this will be one of the most successful shooU ever held in the United States. The probable number of contestants with the post en tries will reich about ITS. The park, which was Inadequate to handle 500 shoot ers last Spring at the live bird shoot, will keep the contesUnU on the move next week. Weeding; Ont of Tlirers. TACOMA. April 12.-Manager Byron Mc Klbben. of the Tigers, has weeded out his team preparatory to the opening of tho season Tuesday. He has released Catcher Benney. brought out from Cincinnati: Pitchers Frank Law and Conney SUrkells. who were trying out. and Pitcher Bernle McKay, who was brought here from Cali fornia. He now has It men, and expects to go through the season with the team as it now stands. Compliment to Handlcapper. CHICAGO. April 12. Only 24 of the 114 horses entered in the 310,000 Harlem Na tional Handicap, to be run at Harlem, Chicago. June C. have been declared out. Horsemen bere consider the small per centage of declarations as a high compli ment to Secretary Nathanson's handicap ping, and especially as various forms of illness are responsible for nearly half of the declarations. Rain Prevented Game. NEWARK, N. J- April 12. Wet grounds prevented the advertised game between the New York Nitional and Newark Eastern Leigue ball clubs. About COOO people had assembled In ex pectation of witnessing a contest. Callfrvala and Eastern, Races. Direct wires. Commissions accepted. Portland Club, 130 Fifth street, SHAMROCKIWONONFtUKE FLAW IN THE WIND DEFEATED THE NEW CHALLENGER, Handicap Will Be the Same In the ( Race Ron Today, If Weather la Similar. WEYMOUTH. England. April 12. There Is an agreement of opinion hat the de feat of the challenger by Shamrock I on time allowance yesterday was entirely due to a weather fluke and gives no reason tor reducing the handicap. The same conditions, therefore, will probably govern tomorrow's race, unless the weather is light, when the time allowance to the ex-challenger may be increased. Colonel NelL a leading Clyde amateur yachtsman, who was aboard the Sham rock I yesterday, said to tne Associated Press correspondent: "The challenger made an absolute ex hibition of us on the first round. A weather fluke gave us the race. I am con vinced that there is no weather nor any point of sailing on which Shamrock I can hold the challenger."' Designer Fife arrived here today to see tomorrows racing. He declined to be drawn as to his opinion whether yester- OWNED BY MISS II. HERRICK. day's performance was good enough for him. He replied that he would rather see the challenger win by half an hour, but it could easily be seen from his genial and pleasant manner that he was well satisfied with the course of events. Experts Expreaa Oplnlona. LONDON. April 11 T. F. Day. the edi tor of The Rudder, expresses the opinion that in view of the showing she made in Saturday's race. Shamrock III is the best boat the British have ever had and that the Reliance must be five minutes faster than the Columbia over a 30-mlle course In a breeze and much more In tight airs to ensure America keeping the cup. The Dally News thinks that if tho chal lenger la only 64 minutes better than a 5-year-old boat on a 30-mile course, she has little chance of beating the Re liance, considering that the Americans have always gone one better. The Times considers that Saturday's race was merely a question of pilotage and the shifting of the wind than a lack of speed on the part of the challenger. VIEWED THE RELIANCE. Smnll Craft Srrarm Abont the Nctt Defender. BRISTOL. R. I, April 12. The harbor was alive with 'small craft today, and hundreds of persons lined the shore and crowded about the wharf where the Reli ance is moored. Many well-known yachts men saw her for the first time. No one was on board, but a seaman on deck warned sightseers against a too near ap proach to- the boat. Everything is in readiness for the step ping of the mainmast tomorrow or Tues day. Mr. Iselln will not see the big spar put in place, as he left for New York to day. The tender Sunbeam, and the Satel lite, tender ot the Constitution, are at Newport, Among the yachtsmen here today was Charles H. Herreschoff. of New York. He expressed himself as very favorably im pressed with the Reliance, He referred to the fact that she cleared th water at a leaser angle than the Constitution and said that the sheer 'was Just as well developed as In the latter boat, though not so no ticeable, because of the overhang being greater. k WAR STARTS TOMORROW. After Today Rival Baseball Leagnea Will Begin Active FljchtlnR. With the dawn of tomorows sun, the baseball war about which so much has been written and discussed both pro and con, will be on In full force. The sched ule has been printed end reports from the various teams In the league show that every team is a pennant winner on paper but as only one team cin capture the flag, there are bound to be many disap pointments in store for the tans of the various towns in the circuit. At this early stage, the Portland Na tionals seem to be as strong as any t(am In the league, and the local minage ment seems to think they have even bet ter than an even break tor the pennant. At home the Nationals will play S4 games, with six weeks of conducting dates with the Browns, and they will play 78 games abroad. Spokane will play the opening game with the Nationals at Hawthorne Park.- Tacoma at Seattle. Butte at San Francisco and Helena at Los Angeles. While the Browns are. playing San Francisco at Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets, June 2 to 7. the Nationals will exchange like compliments with Seattle at Hawthorne Park. On July 22 to 27, Spokane and the Nationals are scheduled to pliy, and on the same dates the Browns will play Sacramento. From Aug ust 4 to 9 It will be again the Browns versus Sacramento, while across the river It will be the Nationals ' versus Seattle. October 6 to 11 It will be Oak land versus the Browns; and the Nation als versus Tacoma. From July 8 to 13 Los Angeles will cross bats with the Browns, and the Nitlonals will play Helena. The last of the conflicting dates will be July 2S to August 2, with the Browns versus San Francisco and the Nationals versus Tacoma. The schedule as printed in -The Ore gonian yesterday was absolutely correct, and was authorized by President Lucas. The, tike schedule which was sent out from Spokane was a glaring mess of inaccuracies dreamed out by W. B. Gar rett, president of the Spokane team, Garrett telegraphed to President Lucas for permission to give out the schedule, but Mr. Lucas had warned him not to do so. and at the same time wired him that the schedule was not to be released until Sunday. April 12. In spite of this warn ing Garrett gave to the Spokane papers a schedule he himself made .up. which, with but few exceptions; is Incorrect, At no less than three cities be has left out whole series. President Lucas was shown the sched ule which Garrett gave out. and he was greatly annoyed at the breach of faith that Garrett had been guilty of. In or der to head off further publication of the false schedule, Mr. Lucas sent word to the various newspapers throughout the circuit not to reprint the Girrett schedule, because it was a false one, and requested them to wait until the correct sechdule sent out by the Associated Press appeared. When President Luc is reaches Spokane. Garrett will be called upon for an explanation. IN THE 'BIG LEAGUES. Teams Carried Average of Thirty Players In Seaaon of 1003. Ernest J. Lannlgan. of Philadelphia, writing for the "Sporting News, has com piled some Interesting statistics regard ing the National League season ot 1S02. From the number of players given op-. ponuniiies to appear in tne raionai League's championship battles in the last campaign, one might well Imagine the circuit was the old unwieldy 12-club af fair, for the eight teams tried 240. This was an average ot 30 ball tossers for each aggregation a hitherto unprecedented to tal in major league history. Allowing for "revolvers" L e., those who played with two teams brings the number- down to 223, ot whom 102 were battery men (73 pitchers, 34 catchers). 59 were infielders. and 57 were outfielders. In 1901 the play ers wearing league livery nurnbered 139. In 1300 lii men appeared in National garb, the average (net) per club for the three seasons being 23.5. 24.3 and 2S.5. Quantity, not quality, was the note struck by the league managers last year in their search tor talent, all the minor leagues and colleges being scoured for players ot ability. One hundred and four releases were written, four players Wall. Magee, Hendricks and O'Hagan receiving blue envelopes from both clubs that tempora rily sheltered them. Walter Brodle was fired at least three times by the New York Club and was a Freedmanlte at the sea son's termination. Tom McCreery got the boots twice from the Brooklyn team, and his last quit notice was not withdrawn. Bill Thomas had two trials by Philadel phia and the last verdict was "guilty.' John O'Neill was given his ten days by Pat Donovan, and then an Injury to Ar thur Nichols gave him a chance to prove his worth, and the Cardinals' brainy man ager recovered himself in time to avoid an error of Judgment and resigned Mich ael Joyce's brother. Tinker a Crackerjack. The Chicago and New York teams made the running In employing players and each required 39 men before the season's end. As showing 'the value of good man agement, it may be stated that Chicago developed two crackerjacks. Joe Tinker, formerly with Portland, and Carl'Lund gren, and had some promising youngsters in hand. New York's gain for the season consisted in the development of George Smith as a second baseman and the ac quisition of the Baltimore "sUrs" whose value has yet to be shown. Philadelphia used 33 men. Cincinnati "28. Pittsburg 27, St. Louis 27, Brooklyn 26 and Boston 2L Of releases. New York's 23 was the ban ner showing. Chicago's 22 the next best. Boston only dispensed with the services of seven players, and four of these men were pitchers who were engaged merely to work in double-headers and relieve the regular staff. Two managers who started the season in command of league teams quit before the campaign was very far advanced. Horace S. Fogel. a Philadelphia news paper man. who had managed the Indian apolis Club for a time In 1ES7. was selected by Andrew Freedman to lead the Giants to Pennantvllie in 1902, and retained his Job, to the surprise of many, unUI June 11. Then George Smith, who had been elevated to the team captaincy on June -, ln J8 Doyle's stead, assumed com plete "control" and xhe was the New Yorks leader until the celebrated Balti more coup, giving way on July 9 to John J. McGraw. Fogel and Smith were un doubtedly handicapped in their manage rial work by interference of the New York president, but McGraw evidently had full command of the Giants. Fogel had trouble with Mathewson and Doyle, and John J. was fired on- June 18. at a time when George Smith was posing as the New York manager. Chances In Manasera. The other league team to change mana gers in mid-Summer was Cincinnati. John Alexander McFhee resigning as field leader ot the Reds on July 1L His temporary successor was Frank C. Bancroft, who had been In charge of the business end of the club for a number of years, and Banny gladly relinquished control of the nJ destinies to Joseph J. Kelley. late of the Baltimore Club, oh July 30 Mc Phee, apparently, "resigned" under pres sure, but was undoubtedly happy to be relieved of the managership, though prob ably sore at the method employed to sever his connection with the club. "King Bill" was not blamed In Redland for the poor showing, of the Queen City team, he being nandlcaped by Brush's peculiar and par simonious policies. A mistake during the McFhee regime was the release of Harry Bay. While Bancroft was in charge the releases of Beck and Currie were written and Poole was secured. Kelley had the advantage of unhampered control of the players and a liberal management after the team changed hands. Out of the 223 leaguers of 1902. one man Tom Maher, of Phlladelphla-merely ap peared as a substitute batter and had no chance at all In field duty. One hun dred and twenty-five Nationallsu were epeclalists, sticking to one position, while 49 players tried their luck in two posi tions and 31 In three. Eleven leaguers nlade attempts to fill four positions, half a dozen tried their lnev in v. . -- ... ...v, IUICC 1U six and two in seven. The latter pair were uunn ana iionus Wagner, the New Yorker not appearing behind the bat nor at first and the PltUburger falling to don the mask and passing up the third corner as welL "Rube" Vlckers was the one leaguer to attempt to fill both batting positions and his appearance behind the bat at Pittsburg. October 4. lasted four innings, and resulted In six passed balls. Roger Bresnahan and Lew McAllister are probably the only players today In the major leagues who can do duty both as pitcher and catcher. The U leaguers who worked In five or more positions durirnr 1902 were: seven rosmoNa. Dunn. New York. p.. 2b.. 3b.. .. if., cf.. rf. cfl'rt""'' Puubar'' - "-. In-. It. SIX POSITIONS. cfr?

One hundred and forty-one leaguers qual ified for batting averages by playing -in 15 or more games, but Nick Young, or whoever compiles the figures, awarded hit ting percentages to 139 Individuals, forget ting "Dusty Bob" Rhoades of the Chicago Club and Harry Felix of the Philadelphia' team. Both pitchers engaged In 16 con tests, the Chlcagoan doing straight duty on the rubber and the Phlladelphlan add ing to bis box labors by attempt to cover third during Halman's necessary absence from the game. Neither slabman swung hU willow In such a manner as to imperil Clarry Beaumont's title to. the batting crown, nor did either of the passed-over pitchers disturb the atmosphere to such an extent that Malcolm Eason's position at the bottom of the list was endangered. Rhoades hit for 222. which sandwiched him in between "Dusty" Miller and "Dutch Hartman. while Harry Felix's .111 entitles him to a place between two college pitchers Harry Thlelman and Carl Lundgren. Wealc and Heavy Hitters. Of the S7 leaguers who participated in less than 15 contests, no less than 26 had percentages represented by three zeros. Roy Hale did not gather a safety during his eight-game career with the Bean-eaters, and as he also failed to manufacture a blngle with the Baltimore1 Americans in three contests, it is safe to predict that the CaUfornlan will not be among the leading stickers In the association this season. "Tacks" Latimer had a percent age ot .Oil la eight games, Roscoe MUlerV figure for ten contesU was .045 and Wlile Popp's foroine .017. These were the start Ilngty small figures recorded In the also ran class. Other players did better.

JUL Ho TV They Behaved. The behavior of the players in the field was batter than in 1901, though there is lots ot room for Improvement. The knowl edge that the league's Board of Control would exercise iU authority in Decaltztng "kicking- players had a deterrent effect on rowdyism. There were, however, some disgraceful episodes, the Clarke-Tenney, Conroy-TInker and Hulswltt-Maloney fights among the number. Worst of all, was tho assault of Umpire Ernslle by Outfielder J. Jone-. of the New Yorks. The Plttsburga appear to have led in kicking, with the Brooklyns close up. The St. Louis team was the best behaved of the year. As a dlssunlnatcr of bench warrants and as a reaper of roasU for doing his duty, 0Day was several lengths In front of his comrade umpires. "Hank" bad lota of trouble with the Brooklyns, and received some charming press notices from Abe Yager. The umpires' record of banishments: UMPIRES. O'Day Irwin Eraslle .... Power ..... Brown ....

Esan Handball Champion. CHICAGO. April 12. Michael Egan. of Jersey City, won the handball champion ship of the United States here in the sec ond half of the series of games 'today with Louis Keegan, of Chicago. Each half of h& series consisted of seven games. In the first-half, played recently at Jersey City, Egan. won seven straight games and to win the match and cham pionship it was necessary for him to win one game in the second half.

C A. will come off this evening at the Multnomah court. This tournament will settle the championship ot the city, and much Interest is being manifested in the result.- There will be both double and single games, and two decisions out of three will be required to make a definite settlement. An Unnsnal Beqneat, New York Sun, " A group of lawyers were discussing wills the other day, and Incidentally deploring the prevailing tendency of their profes sion to overload such Instruments with useless redundancies. Said one: "I was over In New Jersey yesterday as a witness to the probating of the will of the late Judge Leslie W. Russell. It was simplicity and brevity Itself. Approxi mately it said: I give everything I have to my wife. Then. Instead of having seven pages of In the event of her death. I do give, devise and bequeath. etc. It merely added: 'Reversion to our chil dren." "In fact." continued the lawyer, "there was only one Instance of surplusage in the will, which occupied about a sheet of note paper. To me It was touching and beautiful and characteristic of the man. It ran like this: " 'I also bequeath to my wife my undy ing love and trust, ' i 1 BALLPARKINiTIATEl Nationals Win Again From Fast Amateur Nine. unccnuAiata r lat i-int has balU.Pnt-'M.tT cmiiv -v Evidence Daring the Game Good Sunday Crowd.

There was a babel of voices going on all during the day at the Louisville & Nashville depot. Fourteen passenger trains, carrying; from ten to 13 coaches each, departed between the hours of 1 in the morning and 10 at night. Bo dense was the crowd that the depot pas senger agent had to use a megaphone tor giving instructions. locating lost per sons, restoring to frenzied mothers strayed babies and children, announcing the de parture of. trains, where they were to stop and tne like. Amid all the confusion of tongues ther came a cry. A baby was found waddling about, smiling at the faces of the multi tude of strangers. The agent got it In his arms and shouted: "Who has lost a baby about 3 years old. blue eyes, dressed in white, gold chain around Ita neck?" Before he could proceed further the distracted mother was passionately kissing the strayed member of her fam ily. All Diseases of Men Permanently Cured by the Leadlngr Specialists. DR. TALCOTT & CO.
