Portland 7, Seattle 6. Time of game. 2
hours and IS minutes; umpire, Perrine;
defeated pitcher, Reuben Vickers.
It would take many words to describe
ell the Ins and outs of yesterday's game
and to depict the many sensational plays
and hair-raising drives.
Mitchell hit one over his favorite plank
on right field for four bases in the third,
and Sweeney, who had Just appropriated
to himself a pretty three-sacker, marched
In ahead. In the eighth, lazy Vickers
soused one Just a little higher and longer
over the same place, making two home
runs for the day.
Everybody took a shot In the hitting
game, and Incidentally Vickers, who Is
reputed to be the best on the Slwash
stair, got a sound drubbing. Gum started
the business for the Giants, but his pitch
ing finger Is still to the bad, and he was
compelled to quit after four innings of
bombardment.
Larry McLean was also in a suit for the
first time this week, but the heat proved
too much for him, and he retired before
Donahue in the third.
In the Slwash camp there were also
several changes. "Busher" Isbell gave
way to "Bull" Croll at short stop, and
Oscar Jones was sent into left to sup
plant him of the corpulent frame and
lowering visage.
The game was nip and tuck from the
jump. There was a large delegation pres
ent, including many of the fair ones,
whose blessing It was to be admitted
tree. Many seemed to be personally ac
quainted with Reuben Vickers. Esq., and
they were greatly delighted when he of
the deep voice was landed on by McCredle
In the third for a three-bag drive, and In
the very next by Sweeney for a like num
ber of bases, and by Michael Mitchell for
one more still. It seemed as If the ec
centric twlrler would surely have to
spend the rest of the afternoon on the
hard bench, but Russ Hall permitted him
to stay, and with good hitting by his
teammates he came very near to break
ing even.
Seattle lumped in the lead in- the eighth.
Van Buren and Vickers registering, and
It remained for steady Charlie Moore to
brighten the doleful faces of the ladles
in Portland's halt by bringing Jud Smith
over with a nice clout through second.
Then. In the dying minutes of the game.
came the winning play. Donahue and
Lister killed Seattle's chance for another
score in the ninth by doubling Croll at
first on the third strike from Julie Streib's
bat. When the Beavers came up Swee
ney laid Into one for a base, and Mike
put one down slow, which Mott threw
away in a wild heave to the first sta
tion, Sweeney coming around on the error.

National Golf Championship Will Bo
DecidedToday.
ENGLEWOOD, N. J., July 13. Eben M.
Byers, of Pittsburg, who is entered from
the Allegheny Country Club, and George
S. Lyon, of the Lambden Country Club,
Toronto, Canada, are the survivors out of
a field of over 130 players who took part
In this year's national amateur golf cham
pionship tournament. These two will
meet tomorrow on the links for the final
round of the 36-hole match play.
When Walter J. Travis, the former
American and British amateur champion,
defeated Jerome D. Travers, who is only
a boy in years, this morning, the popular
idea was that he would last through the
semi-final and win out from Byers. The
Pittsburg man played very strongly and
consistently, however, and while Travis
and he were about equal on the long
game, Byers was better on the short
game, and won out by four up and three
to play. They played out the bye-holes
and Byers went around In 76, while Travis
took 7S.
Lyons beat Knowles this afternoon by
five up and four to play, going out in 36,
which was the best golf the Canadian has
shown this week.

FAREWELL GAME PLAYED
Actors Are Preparing to Scatter for
the Vacation Season Many
Will Return to Portland
in September.
BY A. H. BALLARD.
As one of the episodes of temporary
parting of the members of the Baker
Stock Company, they played a baseball
game yesterday with the Heilig Theater
crowd.
It was announced that the lineup of
the two nines would be composed of ac
tors and singers from the two organiza
tions, which severally have been more or
less conspicuous in the public eye during
the present year in Portland,
The result was not all that was ex
pected. Partly, no doubt, from the swel
tering condition of the weather, very few
of the actors came to the grounds, and
very few of the members of either orga
nization even entered the grandstand to
look on. Evidently they did not take a
great deal of interest in the proceedings,
or some of the more particular ones did
not deem the occasion sufficiently engross
ing or provocative enough of desirable
publicity to justify their attendance.
None of the women of the Baker com
pany were present, and only a few of the
men. Nearly all the people from the Ken
dall company playing at the Heilig were
there, with the vital exceptions of Lottie
Kendall and Bessie Tannehill.
Chorus Girls Cheer Players.
Russo sat in the grandstand (I forgot
to say that the game occurred at the
Multnomah Club field) alongside of Mr.
Boyer, and there was a gala lot of Heilig
chorus girls, with ribbons waiving in a
lost cause for their losing confreres among
the ball players.
Ben Lodge was prominent in the grand
stand also. He rooted around for his
team until the idea seemed hopeless.
Robert Pitkin started off boldly, playing
first base for his team, but in the second
inning he split his hand badly and had
to retire. Sainpolis, King, Russell and
Harris were the only actors on the Baker
side, and Lynch, Pitkin, Mayo, Bradley
and Spaulding were the actors who rep
resented the company from the Heilig.
The rest on both sides were stage hands
and box office employes.
When the game was called George L.
Baker and Mr. Davis acted as umpires,
but Mr. Davis, after one inning, suc
cumbed to the heat and had to take a
rest. Baker stuck it out longer
There were wistful looks and Inquiries
quietly made from the scraggiy crowd in
the grandstand, the loiterers in tne snaae
of the building and over underneath the
trees near the club house, as to where
Edgar Baume was. where Donald Bowles
was, etc., etc., but no Bdgar.and no Don
ald, and no Dillis, and no Esmelton ap
peared to delight the curiosity mongers.
The lineup was as follows:
Baker C. Smith, second base; Russell.
shortstop; Walley, right field; J. Sainpolis.
first base; D. Bowen, center field; Haines,
third base; Harris, catcher; S. Sainpolis,
left field; B. King, pitcher.
HelUg Ward, Lynch and Cutter, pitchers;
Butcher, left field; Snyder, catcher and sec
ond base; Parr, shortstop; Mayo, second
base and catcher: Pitkin and Williams, first
base; Bradley, center field; Spaulding, third
base; York, right field.
The first inning was disastrous to the
musical comedy outfit.
Burt King pitched as if he had been
able to do just this thing all his born
days. The Heilig fellows could not find
the ball, and they went down in one, two,
three order. Lynch, for the Heiligs, made
a good try in his pitching, but the sup
port was bad and he became disheart
ened, the Bakers lamming him ail over
the lot, to the tune of nine runs in "the
first inning.
At the end of the fourth inning the
score stood 11 to 2 in -favor of the Bakers.
Lynch had fallen by the wayside by this
time, and Ollie Ward, who, they say, once
played professional ball, went in to pitch
for the Heiligs. He made his opponents
fan the air frequently, and the hopes of
the Fourteenth and Washington street
people began to revive. But it was a
dreary up-hill job to catch up with the
sturdy stage hands from Third street, and
the score stood 11 to 3 in favor of the
Bakers.
Vacation Season Here.
The personnel of the Baker Stock Com
pany will undoubtedly be much changed
when they open again in the Autumn. Not
much is allowed to be said about who is
engaged or who Is not engaged by the
management for the coming season. The
matter of continuing on some of the
members for another year is doubtless
nut yet decided. Most of the company
will go away from Portland during the
Summer months, at all events, and we
do not know as yet who will come back.
Donald Bowles, among the aggregation,
says that he is engaged to return in Sep
tember. He will go to Minneapolis and
visit George Bloomquest during his vaca
tion, returning here in time to open with
the Baker Company in September.
Edgar Baume will go to his ranch at
Mount Sterling, Ky. It is not certain
whether or not he will come back here
next year.
Burt King will go to Chicago.
Mr. Esmelton will go East
Mr. Dills will go to Chicago.
Mr. Sainpolis will go East with Mr.
Baker in the Interests of getting plays
and securing new members for the Fall
company.
Mr. Russell will go to Seaside, and re
turn to join the company at the Septem
ber opening.
Mr. Hb-rris will camp on the Columbia
with Don Bowen. They have rented a
little naptha launch, and are going to
have fine times. Mr. Harris will be with
the company next year.
Miss Lawrence will go to Boston to play
a special engagement of a few weeks at
the Globe Theater in that city, and will
return here in September to be leading
woman of the Baker company next sea
son. Her daughter, Miss Terry, will ac
company her East.
Miss Neville will go to Chicago.
Miss Power will go East.
Mr. Byers will go to Chicago to join the
"College Widow" company, and his wife,
Mrs. Byers, will go to her home in San
Francisco. Mr. Byers will spend some
time In San Francisco before going to
Chicago to open with the company where
he is engaged.

contest of the season.
The ill-fated Dandelion, who finished
second In the Metropolitan, the Brook
lyn and the Suburban handicaps, and
then fell down during the running of
the Commonwealth, when chat stake
seemed to be at his mercy, is named to
go in the Brighton tomorrow, and will
probably be installed as the post favor
ite. To Kalon, the winner of the
Brooklyn Handicap, is among the
Brighton dozen, but her chances are
not seriously considered. Flip Flap,
the game little mare which won the
Advance Stakes at Sheepshead Bay and
finished third In the Brighton mile last
Tuesday, undoubtedly has a real
chance for the handicap, and will be
played quite as heavily as the favorite.
Hamburg Belle and Whimsical are
both to be starters tomorrow, and the
consensus of opinion is that the race
lies among these two, Flip Flap and
Dandelion.
The track is extremely fast now, and
clear weather is expected tomorrow.

ACCUSED LAWYER OF CRIME
Witness Tells of Murdered Woman's
Dying Statement.
NEW YORK. July 13. Mrs. Mary Ship
po, who occupied rooms in the basement
of the old Stanton homestead in the
Bronx, where Mrs. Alice Kinnan was
murdered on June 8, has been the prin
cipal witness at the Coroner's inquest so
far. Mrs. Shippo testified that on the
night preceding the crime there was
quarreling for several hours In the apart
ment above her; that the voices sounded
like those of a man and two women.
Next day, she said, Mrs. Kinnan came
down stairs looking much worried and
said:
"That devil of a lawyer put me to a
lot of trouble."
Mrs. Kinnan, the witness said, spoke
of a bill which she thought would be J100
for a lawyer and which turned out to be
$6000.
The witness said she heard voices, went
up to the front piazza about 9 o'clock
Friday night, and found Mrs. Kinnan ly
ing on the veranda and Mrs. Stanton
leaning over her with, a lamp. Mrs.
Shippo testified that she asked Mrs. Kin
nan who struck her, and that Mrs. Kin
nan replied:
"It was the lawyer."
"I asked what lawyer," said the wit
ness, "but she said nothing more, only
moaned."

the legal adviser of Mrs. Stanton up to
a few days after Mrs. Kinnan's murder,
was present at the hearing, having been
summoned as a witness. For several
years Lawyer Gibson had charge of Mrs.
Stanton's property.
"How long have you known Mr. Gib
son, the lawyer?" asked Coroner McDon
ald of Mrs. Shippo.
"I have known him as long as I have
lived in the house," replied the witness,
"but I did not know his name until after
the murder. Mrs. Kinnan always called
him 'our lawyer.' He called often, some
times every day, sometimes two or three
times a week."
Mrs. Shippo said that on the Saturday
after the murder, Mrs. Marie Peron, of
Avenue A, told her that a man in a sa
loon at Nineteenth street and Avenue A
wanted to see her about the murder.
She went to the saloon and saw a man
who told her he was Michael Scudo, a
politician. Scudo, the woman said, of
fered to give her money for Lawyer Gib
son that she could go to Italy, and there
fore not be in New York to testify
against Gibson. Mrs. Shippo testified
that she told Scudo she would not go to
Italy and would not change her testi
mony for any amount of money. She
said that since the murder Lawyer Gib
son had offered her $100 if she would go
away.
SGHMITZ LETS REAGAN OUT
DISLOYAL, UNTRUTHFUL, INEF
FICIENT AND UNFIT.
Mayor Handles Police Commission
er's Reputation Without Gloves.
Latter Stands by Gnns.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 13. Thomas F.
Reagan, the last remaining member of
the Police Commission, was dismissed to
day by Mayor Schmitz. The Mayor gave
as his reasons for the dismissal of Rea
gan disloyalty to the administration and
an irreconcilable conflict between private
business and obligation to public life.
In his letter of dismissal to Reagan the
Mayor sets out these reasons as follows:
"First General unfitness to hold a po
sition of public honor and trust. Second
flagrant mendacity. Third Disloyalty to
the administration. Fourth Lack of har
mony, impairing your usefulness as a
Commissioner. Fifth Irreconcilable con
flict between the interests of your private
business and the obligations of your pub
lic office. Sixth Inefficiency."
"I am ready at any time to prove the
charges I made In my letter to Mayor
Schmitz," Reagan said today. "I do not
care to discuss at this time what I
wrote. The letter speaks for itself. It
has been eaid that this Is a case of word
against word. I say that it is not, and
that I can prove It is not. If the Mayor
thinks I have slandered him, let him
have me arrested.
"Do not let any bne think that I sat
down and wrote that letter without know
ing what I was writing about. I men
tioned some things in my letter. I will
tell about others sometime later."
W. H. Leahy, ex-manager of the Tivoli
Opera-House, has been tendered the office
of president of the Police Commission, by
Mayor Schmitz, and today accepted.

HOT ELECTION IN P
ALCALDE DON FRANCISCO HERO
OF OCCASION.
Stops Rioting by Riding Into Mob
With Whip Charges of Fraud
by Liberals Fall Through.
WASHINGTON, July 13. The recent
election in Panama brought a new hero
to the attention of the Isthmus in the
person of Alcalde Don Francisco de la
Osso, whose conduct is described by a
Panama paper tnus:
"Only the ceaseless efforts of the Al
calde prevented serious rioting. With
great courage and presence of mind he
rode among the surging, struggling pack,
clearing a path by aid of his riding whip,
and, when everything else failed to sep
arate the desperate fighters, he would be
able to get them apart by the simple but
most effective device of riding between
them, with a compliment from his riding
whip to each combatant."
Dr. Pablo Arosemana, Vice-President of
the republic, who is opposed to the Con
stitutional party now In power. Is charged
by the Panama Star and Herald with hav
ing made violent speeches which inflamed
the Liberals and were responsible for
riots which resulted in many deaths and
the serious injury of 11 persons. He
charged that the names of 1500 Liberals
had been erased from the voting lists, and
that duplicate votes were cast by the po
lice. When these charges were laid be
fore Governor Magoon, he went immedi
ately to Don Ricardo Arash, the Secre
tary of State, and the two officials imme
diately called the entire police force to
gether and questioned the officers without
finding any evidence of fraud.
All day Governor Magoon moved among
the crowds, according to newspaper ac
counts, and was greeted everywhere by
cries of "Viva" from the Liberals.
After the balloting was over efforts
were made by mobs to seize the ballot
boxes and invalidate the elections.
"If you see a head, hit it," was the
motto of the rioters.
