A new schedule was adopted for the Pa cific National league. TACOMA, June 20. (Special.) Tha Pa cific National League magnates complet ed their deliberations at a late hour to night and adjourned, apparently In a very happy frame of mind. Th Portland franchise was transferred officially to Salt Lake City, andf Portland is no more a factor In the league. The team will play today as Salt Lake City, and will start la with a clean record of games won and lost, and go through the rest ot the season on its own merits. Jack Grim will continue- as manager of the Salt Lake club until such time as Salt Lake desires to make a change. A schedule for the rest of the season was completed and made public tonight. The schedule shows an Innovation, in asmuch as instead of playing two out side clubs in San Francisco, as was ar ranged for in the old schedule, two out side clubs will play In Seattle, Dugdale thinks this will prove a paying venture. Consequently the week of August 18 Los Angelas ana aan j? rancisco win pmy in Seattle: the week of September 22 Butte and Helena play in Seattle, and the week following Butte and Salt Lake, during which time the Seattle team is on the road. The California clubs remain In the North until the first week in September, then Los Angeles and? San Francisco open at home and remain in California. 'Until the season nds Seattle and Spokane are the only two northern clubs scheduled to visit California, and they will put in three or four weeks there playing 12 games series in each city. "We have made the best schedule that the climatic conditions in the different cities of the league permit." said Harry J. Hart this evening. "We are out of Portland, and we have pursued what we twlieve to be the wisest course In. taking in Salt Lake City. We have had Port land Investigated very carefully for some time, while the teams were playing there. Baseball enthusiasm In that city is de cid'dly on the wane. The attendance of both the outlaw clubs and ourown Is not nffir!Tit tn ennnnrt wen nne club, let alone two.

Jack Grim, manacer ot the now defunct Port land team of Pacific National, said at midnight: t "I have no intimation of the action of 'the league magnates at Tacoma acid know absolutely nothing of future plans of my team.

Smmct Drake, until vesterdav nrep- roTit nt llir f!rArno-atrPK. of the PfteLfle National League, returned last night from Tacoma, where he had fought in vain against the casting of the Greengages from the Pacific National League. Dr. Drake had his trio to Tacoma for his pains, for -when, he arrived there he found that Butte. Helena and Tacoraa. were dead "ot" to drop Portland from the circuit. Spokane and Seattle waited; Itko good, obedient children, until Presi dent Xrucas turned his thumbs down, and, when they read the signals, Portland was thrown out bodily and the $2000 which Portland directors had pat Into the deal in good faith went glimmering. "It could not be helped," was Dr. Drake's explanation when he returned last night. "They were for dropping Portland and admitting Salt lake, and nothing I could do could prevent It. I don't think President Lucas had any thing to do with casting' Portland adrift. Butte, Helena and Spokane had made up their minds that they did; not want us in the league, and they found their scheme favored by Tarorna and Seattle, although In Justice to the two last named cities, It ought to be stated that they were not so anxious to- annul the Portland franchise. I don't know what steps will be taken by the directors, neither do I know what will ba done with the grounds nnd gxaad-i stand. This will be decided upon at a meeting of the board of directors..' When the team was" first organized It waar given out that the- capital stock of $H,00d was owned; entirely "by Portland business men. This, however, seems to have been incorrect, for but $3000 was held In this city, while the remaining $7000 was owned by the Pacific National League. It drd not fake long to burn up the $3000, and perhaps one or two thou sand more in getting the team together and making' that one trip south, so the league people thought that, inasmuch as they had given; the directors a look-in at financing a baseball team they had done enough.

GOVERNOR TAKEN TO TASK Ilnivaiinn LaivntnUerx Accuse Dole of Official Discourtesy. HONOLULU. June 24, via San Fran cisco, June 20. Governor Dale sent a message to the House on Monday veto ing half a dozen items In the act passed to provide for payment of unpaid bills. Some of the vetoes had been forecasted in the local press, and Representative Vlda Introduced a resolution instructing the clerk to send a letter of injulry to the executive asking him if he had given Information to the press about what his vetoes were to be, and if ho considered such a course courteous to the Legisla ture. The resolution -was adopted. A request is to be made by the Ha waiian Bar Association that the member ship of the Supreme Court of the Ter ritory be increased from three to five. Ewa plantation was the scene of a murder and possibly a double murder on Monday among the Japanese laborers. Kuabara and a woman, who he is said to have "purchased" from one Yanagi, were attacked in their home about mid night, their assailant stabbing Kuabara so that he died almost at once, and in flicting wounds which will probably cause the death of the woman. Jealousy Is supposed to have been the cause of tho crime. Judge Estee, of the United States Dis trict Court, has overruled the plea in bar filed in the 113 cases of F. V. Berger -c tk -RishoT) for $1000 damages eacn. on account of the alleged illegal importa tion of 113 Koreans. Tho defendant has filed a demurrer. - POPE OUT IN THE AIR. He Visits the Vntlcan Garden for the First Time This Year. ROME, Juno 30. The Pope descended to the Vatican gardens this morning for the first time this year ana was unven about for an hour and a half. He seemed to enjoy the air Immensely, and noticed the changes made in the gardens. He was especially interested In the growth of the vines planted by himself, and made inquiries regarding the prospects for the vintage. When the Popo returned to his apartments he seemed not in the least fatigued and received several bishops. Mgre. Mourey and D'Halthoul, French prelates attached to the papal court, left for Paris today on a vacation, which will last until October. They previously asked Dr. Lapponl. the Pope's physician, if tho vacation was not likely to be In terrupted, and his reply was: "Do not be anxious; you may stay away for several Summers." At present the Pope is wonderfully well. People who have seen him recently de clare that all traces of his recent Indis position have disappeared. DeTTcy'a DnnRcr Never Great. TOPEKA. Juno 30. The last testimony in the, application of the Dcweys for ad mission to ball on-the charge of killing the Berry family was heard today. The attorneys for the stato secured many answers today which tended to show that the supposed danger of mob violence to tho Deweys was greatly exaggerated. C. F. Butler, the last witnesse. a ranch er, was with the committee of eight -to present the grievances of the settlers to the Deweya. After much 'hesitation. Mr. Butler admitted that Daniel P. Berry, Alphcus Berry and Birch Berry were with the committee of eight. Threo things were demanded by the settlers committee, one that the Deweys should build fences to protect the settlers' crops; another that the Dewey riders should he disarmed and a third that the warrants for the arrest of tho Berry bors bd withdrawn. 0UMM1NS' MEN LOSE AlHson Tariff Plank Is Not to Their Liking.

It is known that the words that were most objection able in the platform to the stand-patters will be omitted. The make-up of the committee on platform has not been fully determined, and the committee Is prac tically evenly divided between the two factions of the party, which might be termed the tariff reformers and the stand patters. But the' make-up of the com mittee will have but little to do with the platform on tho tariff, as that is in the" hands of Senator Allison, by general consenL Hon. George D. Perkins, of Sioux City, is the compromise temporary' chairman. The Cummins men are bringing forward M. E. Kendall, of Albla, for permanent chairman, and he may be chosen. Repre sentative Hepburn, however, appears" to lead in the race. The only contest will be on State Super intendent of Public Instruction, for which there are three candidates. The present incumbent, Mr. Barrett, aspires to a fourth term, and the opposition to him is on the fourth-term principle. The op posing candidates are J. F. Rlgers, of Sl gouraey, and A. Demans, of Fayette. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, who is a delegate, arrived this morning. Sec retary Shaw and ex-Speaker Henderson will not be present. This afternoon there were rumors to the effect that the agreement between the tariff reformers and the stand-patters had been called off and that Governor Cummins, being dissatisfied with the read ing of the tariff plank, would make an effort to control the committee on resolu tions. However, the plank has been shown to most of the leaders of both factions, and, while it is not eminently satisfactory to the Cummins forces. It Is believed that it will go through without further scratch ing. BID ADIEU TO KIEL. Americans Leave German Watera Amid Great Booming of Cannon, KIEL. June 30.

The Grand Duke was asked what reception would be given the American petition in Russia. He replied: "There can be no question of interven tion by America in the purely internal affairs of Russia. Nevertheless, I am aware that the relations between Russia and America have always been of a very cordial nature, especially elnce 1S43, when a Russian fleet visited New York. "The Jewish agitation, is chiefly Insti gated by Influential Jews outside of Rus sia, such as the members of the society in New York presenting the American pe tition, and especially the powerful Jews In Berlin.

RUSSIA IGNORES COREAX PROTEST. Work Contianes on Barracks and, Other. BnildlnRH at Yonsr Ampho. VICTORIA, B. C, June 30. News was received here by the ateamer Aki Maru that the Russians are going on with their building operations at Yong Ampho, Ir respective of Corean pretests. Communi cation with tho Manchurinn mainland Is being maintained by three steamers from Antung. Permanent barracks, warehouses, stores, etc, are being bullL Reports aro also received that the Russians have se cured concessions on both banks of tho Yalu. The Corean government has grant ed a concession to A. Jlnsuke, a Japanese, in tho same locality and complications will doubtless arise as a result. The Japanese papers comment at length regarding the visit of General Kuropat- j kin, Russian Minister of War. The gen ! eral comment Is hopeful that his visit may bring about a better understanding regarding Manchuria, but many Journals speak more or less defiantly. A number of prominent Journals give much space in this connection to explanations of how the views of Russians and Japanese dif fer regarding each other, and the Kok smul Shlmbun and the Yomluri Shlmbun plead for a better understanding. Nearly every Journal in Japan devotes much space to comment on the -visit of the War Minister, who Is generally considered to have no political mission. The Pekln correspondent of the Asahl Shimbun wires at length regarding secret audiences being given to the Russian Charge of Affairs at Pekln and Prince Ching, while the British or Japanese Min isters are not received.

VICTORIA, B. C, June 30. The steam er Aki Maru, which reached here this afternoon from Yokohama, brought news that an ominous change of tone pervaded the Japanese press. One paper says a petition has been presented to the Japan ese Cabinet stating the reasons why it is admissible that Japan should go to war with Russia. The petition, according to the Yokohama paper, is signed by nobles and a large number of prominent men. Another paper complains that the policy of the Foreign Office is too subservient to the too-cautious and timid counsel of the elder statesmen, and does not fairly represent the sentiment of the people at large. Still another writes on the reso lutely patriotic spirit of the Japanese In connection with International affairs, and the fact that their spirit has been fanned by the Anglo-Japanese alliance. It ad mits there may be some who deny the potency of that alliance, but helda that the Japanese nation, as a whole, is in perfect consonance with the alliance, which was established .with the firm de- HOW TO FIND OUT.
