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:

Men Are- Said te Have
'Xies'it Their, Lives
' ST.. JOSEPH, . Mo;,- July 5. 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

RICHARDS ALLEGES CONSPIRACY
Says Coadnct of His Office. 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. At least this Is the claim put
forward by the Marshal's friends.
Moore Announces Intention.
Judge Moore, before he left Seattle for
Washington, announced, his intention of
securing the removal of Marshal Rich
ards, if this is possible. Both have
strong friends at the National Capital
It Is said that Judge Moore desires the
appointment of Clerk Borchsenlus as Mar
shal. This will involve, it is said, the ap
pointment of Harry Steele as clerk.
Steele formerly lived In Seattle, and was
clerk of the Nome court under Judge
Noyes.
Judse Moore was annolnted from Penn
sylvanla on, tho Indorsement of Senator
Matt Quay, who Is a friend of Harry
Steele. 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.
When the first steamer arrived at Nome
this Spring, United States Attorney Mel
vln .Grigsby,. who was a Colonel in the
Spanish War, and served with Roosevelt
in the Cuban campaign, arrived at Nome,
having spent the Winter at Washington.
He was confronted by a singular condi
tion of affairs. His son. George Grigsby,
Whom he had left as acting attorney for
the United States. In charge of the affairs
of the office, had been removed, and At
torney McGinn had been substituted by
Judge Moore. United States Attorney
Grigsby Immediately resumed charge of
the office. His s6n, as Assistant United
States Attorney, Immediately filed a re
port of the proceedings of the grand -Jury,
which Colonel Grigsby forwarded to the
Department of Justice several days since.
In this report, which Is now on file at
Washington, the charge Is made that the
grand Jury was "jobbed"; that. In effect
the Jury spent tho greater part of Its time
In Investigating the conduct of the United
States Marshal's office. Instead of consid
ering the criminal cases brought before It
In addition, the charge Is made, at least
by Implication, that the grand Jury was

REMOVED
It is a surprise the number of cancers
showing up since the St Louis Dispensary
made the announcement a few days ago
that a qancer department had been added
to that old medical and surgical institu
tion. People In general believe a cancer
incurable (which Is correct, if allowed to
eat Into the gland too far); besides, many
quacks have been fooling the public for
years. 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. '
Furthermore, they DON'T TAKE A

removed. Not only cancer, but all dis
eases of both sexes treated. Consultation
