Second game Portland 12, Seattle 2. That double-header yesterday afternoon was certainly some pippins. George Bngle had the rear pocket of. his panties Ailed with bright, dry sand, which he threw Into the eyes of the batting Siwashes, and, with the good support of his team mates behind him, he won his" game. Pit ted against him was Bill Carrick. Bill dld not have any sand in his panties, but lie kept the hits measurably scattered, yet errors at critical times placed him on the loser's end of the purse. In the sec ond game it was Ike Butler against the south-winged Dutchman, Klinhammer, and, as true as it was Sunday, Kllnk hammer got "his." In the two games there was enough of real baseball to serve for some time to come. In the third Inning of the first game, Vigneux and Van Buren started things. Vigneux jolted a double-sacker to right, and the Deacon whipped his bat around so that it went into the left gar den. The swipe which the Deacon gave the ball came dangerously near the foul line, Just Tack of switch No. 3. The whole Slwash tribe held a medicine talk with Umpire McDonald, and agcorted the official to the fatal spot where the sphere, in their opinion, tore up several sections of real .estate. The umpire's eyes were In excellent focus, and he could only see one spot, and that was where the sphere fell fair of the line. In the fifth inning, a base on balls, one single and two fielders' choices resulted in three runs. In the lucky seventh, George Bngle, wishing to cinch the game, slammed out a two cushion carom into Smithville, and, on errors by Hanlon and Schwartz, he scored. During this engagement the Siwashes scored their first run in the opening in ning. Schwartz hit safely, and he was brought home on Smith's single to left field. Raldys bad throw in the seventh gave Boetteger a chance to score, when Ckrrick jammed one' Into deep left field for two sacks. Rain Cuts Short Second Game. This game was' full of fast fielding, and two very rapid-fire double play's were pulled off. Anderson, Haldy and Vigneux figured In the first double. Hannlvan liad blngled, and Boetteger spanked .an Infield hit that has teeth. A'hderson mowed it down and relald it to Raidy, who whipped it Into Vigneux waiting mlt The play was as fast as ever will be worked on the grounds during this or any .season. .j Carrlck, Zinssar and Han lon are credited with the other play, in which Anderson and Raidy were doubled ou. The play, while it was fast, did not require such llghtnlng-liko precision as did the first. For a time it looked as if tho second game would-go the way of .many others rain. Old J. Pluvlus decided to give tho 5000 a run for their, money. Inasmuch as he had cheated them out of it on Satur day, so he held off until things went into the air in Portland's half of the eighth . lnnltig. Then Jt rained for fair, and Se attle, knowing there was no chance to overcome the lead the Browns had, al lowed the game to be called. It was In this game that there was glory and trou ble enough for all. Zlnssar's work at short and his dazzling two one-hand catches stood out as big and large as the great cloud which brought, the rain. In the first game he had six chances, three put-outs and three assists. In the second game five putouts go to his credit and one -assist, and, mind you, every one of these was hard, and he smothered them all without a skip or a break. In order to, catch his first one-hand stop, he had to' run almost back of third base. The Becpnd one he ran under and speared. -Tnen tnere was mat American Beauty running catch that Van Buren nailed. The" Deacon, after a "run for life," ran with the ball and grabbed It to his heav ing bosom just as the crowd groaned a , "two-bagger." The- crowd came near yelling their heads off. They yelled again when that discarded son of the Browns, Carlo Smith, smashed out a home run that went several yards above the new extension which Jerry had -put up in right field. That ball that Smith clouted, while It was not the longest hit on record, was certainly the highest ever jolted over the fence vat Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets. There was also a swift running catch by "Whispering Bill" Nadeau and a two-bagger by him. There .were also three singles for Butler and a two-base hit by Anderson and a single Just when they did the most good. Hurlburt and Zlegler's Star Play. But the star play of the day was left . for Zlegler and Hurlburt to make in the eighth inning. Klinkhammer had been clouted from Little Necks to nuts, and nothing could have beaten the Brown3 umess XKe .uuuer ana tne rest or tne pitching staff had gone crazy. Up to the time of the great killing, Seattle had managed to get two runs over the rubber while the Browns were six to the good. Van Buren beat out a bunt as an opener to the engagement. So did Nadeau. Jay Andrews bunted and neartly sacrificed the pair. Van Buren going to third and Na daeu to second. Andy Anderson, who is . hitting often and timely, smashed out a single, on which both the Deacon and Nadeau scored. Raidy flew out to Ward in center, and Hess drew a free ticket. Butler knocked out his third blngle, and then it came time for Hurlburt and Zleg. Ier to play their star engagement. Klink hammer was sending' his best over the plate, and finally Hurlburt poked his bat against one, and it shot high into the air. Zlegler yelled: "I got itl it's mine!" But It wasn't, and the ball slipped through his fingers and rolled on the wet grass. Zlegler was not through. He grabbed the slippery ball and hiked It to third, hop ing to catch Anderson. The ball went a 'half mile over Zlnssar's head, and a stream of Browns began romping home. -in tne meantime, what of Hurlburt? Well, the big right fielder was racing mamy tnrougn the mud after the most Improved fashion of mudlarks. He got to imra oeioro Hannlvan could field Zlec lers wild throw, but, never stopping, he stanea nome unaer whip and spur. Han nivanTs throw was nerfect but Zleeler was determined that Hurlburt was not to be denied his home run, and he caught tne Ban ana began looking for some one to throw It to. There were 'no Siwashes on bases, so he looked at the ball to see If . the seams were correctly stitched. Hurlburt's home run -will certainly go on record as a freak homer, and. those "who saw It will tell about It when they get to fanning during the Winter months. By capturing the series from Seattle, the Browns are within climbing distance, and. if luck Is with the team this week, and they play the same kind" of 'baseball against Los Angeles as they have against Seattle, they will climb out of the cellar. This week it will be the Loo Loos against ho Browns, and a right royal battle is promised for the week. The scores: First Game. PORTLAND. AB. R. IB. SB. FO. A. E.

The main bullying '-.of the 'Hammond packing plant was destroyed by fire this afternoon. The 7ob1s estimated as high as $500,000. It .Is entirely covered by Insurance. Two -men loBt their-llves In the flames.- One of them "j ls-'reported to be Charles Miller, fire "mar ohal at.the plant. This could not be veri fied.. Three men were injured, one of them seriously!. For a time the entire stockyards district was ' threatened. By hard work the Nel son. Morris plant, 300 feet north of the .Hammond plant, was. saved, and this saved the Swift plant, whldh is ,to the north of the Nelson Morris building. Tho fire started a little after 2 o'clock. By 9 o'clock most of the building was gone. The greatest danger was at 6 o'clock, when part of the north wall fell and the fierce flames shot toward the Nelson Morris building. Twenty loads of hose were out on the Nelson Morris build ing. .Though the dense smoke was blown -against the big buildings, the work of the firemen saved the building. Many of the. firemen were volunteers. There were three of tho city companies at the fire. The carcasses of- 4500 hogs, 1500 cattle and ISOO sheep were burned. Nearly 100,000 pounds of oleomargarine were destroyed. Tho contents of the smokehouse were consumed. The entire north building, measuring 120x400 feet, and ranging In height from five to seven stories, was gutted. It was with the greatest difficulty that the south building was saved. The origin of the Are Is a mystery. There Is no fire In the casing department in the eastern part of thj building, where tho Are started. The flames were discov ered about 2:23 o'clock by the day watch man, who gave the alarm. Daniel Smalley, foreman of the" car de partment, fell from -the carsheds on the north of the building and sHiffered seri ous Injury. ' The fatalities occurred about 5 o'clock. By that time nearly all the building was on fire. A man wlfh a hoye, said to have been Miller, was srsen at one of tho win dows on the north side In the hog de partment. He walked back into the build ing, and a few jconds later those on the outside heard terrible- cries, which lasted perhaps half a minute. The man did not appear again, and is' believed to have been killed. Two young men who were In the room and left a few" minutes before said that two men failed to escape, but they did not give the names of the mn, who were said to be employesof the company. The fire had.penetrated to the oleomar garine department, which Is at the north east corner of the building, by 3 o'clock. The fire then began to burn fiercely. The beef beds, egg department and other de partments In the east, end of the build ing known as the beefhouse were soon ablaze. The eastern part of the building was of wood, built 1 to allow. of an exten sion of the building Jn. that direction. This eastern wall was soon a mass of names. It burned 'slowly at first, but by 3:30 o'clock it was beginning to fall apart, especially at the rorth end, where the oleomargarine department was located Within a very few minutes the-flames were in the hog department, and the carcasses of-4500 animals, largely fat, were added to the flames. It was in this building that Miller was said to have lost his life. From the hofrhouse it was but a short time until the smokehouse was ablaze. thus making a flery furnace 400 feet long and, 520 feet wide. The 'walls began to fall about 5 o'clock. Tho eastern wooden wall had been gradu ally dropping away. Long Iron strands could be seen to curl up and to fall from the building. Soon the center of Interest was directed to the northeast corner of the building, where 'nearly 100,000 pounds of oleomargarine, in tierces of 4S0 pounds each, were adding fuel to the fire. At G o'clock a large part of the .south ern wall fell with a crash. Several violent explosions had been heard Just before, as some oil tank burst within the building. . The buildings and machinery were cov ered by Insurance to the amount of $350, 000, and the stock was Insured for about $600,000.

Was In vestigated by Enemies, While the Criminal Cases Were ' Overlooked. SEATTLE, Wash., . July 5. (Special.) In the factional row at Nome. Alaska, in which .the administration of Frank Rich ards has been subject, to attack, there Is more than has yet developed in' the news paper accounts 'of tho 'controversy. In brief. Judge Moore, of. tho United States District Court, will within a short time prefer charges .against Marshal Richards, ,Jn the hope of securing his removal from the office he" now holds. Tho Judge Is now on his way to Washington, there to lay before the officials of the'-Department of Justice the charges against Richards embodied In the .report of the grand Jury lately assembled at Nome. While no counter charges may be laid -against Judge Moore, itkls "an assured fact that Marshal Richards will defend himself. As a matter of fact a full report of the proceedings of tho grand' Jury at Nome, which savagely attack Richards, and of the events leading up to the grand jury sessions, has been filed with the de partment at Washington by United States Attorney Melvln Grigsby. This report contains some damaging charges against certain members f of the grand Jury and against Clark Borchsentus of tho United States District Court who appears to be the chief conspirator against .Marshal Richards.

Clerk Borchsenlus came to Nomo from Wisconsin, where he was an ad herent of Governor LaFolIette. He car ried .with him the Indorsement of Senator Spooner, one of tho strong men with the Administration. Borchsenlus and Marshal Richards have never agreed at Nome. There were many points of difference, The Marshal, It is claimed, refused to rec ognize the gamblers ring. Borchsenlus' most Intimate friend In the camp was John L. McGinn, formerly of Portland, Or., who, It Is alleged by Marshal Rich ards' friends, kicked up most of the trou ble. McGinn, after resigning from tho position of Assistant United States At torney. became the attorney for other parties. Surprise for Colonel GrlRsby.

But in the long standing of tho St Louis Dispensary it has established It self In the confidence of the public and it is known that nothing 13 treated which is incurable.
