Chamber of Commerce, at which the
chairmen of the various subcommittees
rendered written , reports of the affairs
of their respective committees.
Some discussion arose relative to the
participation in the celebration of the sail
ors from the Charleston. It was found
that the races in which some memfbers of
the crew of the warship were scheduled
to take part would occur at the same
hour as the parade, and that, according
to orders, sailors could not take part in
both events. After considerable discus
sion, it was decided to have L. B. Wood
ard and Captain T. Strain call on
Lieutenant Hart, of the Charleston, and
. confer with him in regard to changing
the hour of the races from 10 A. M. to 1
P. M. on July 4. Some arrangement it
Is believed will be arrived at whereby
the sailors can march in the parade and
still participate In the races on the river.
The committee in charge of the fire
works at the fair grounds announced that
the New York and Idaho buildings have
been set apart for the use of Invited
guest and members of the general com
mittee. Refreshments will be sold on the
grounds. Patent chairs will also be on
sale.
Colonel Jackson, of the parade commit
tee, announced that all floats will be per
mitted to Join In the parade, provided
they were decorated with flags or red,
white and blue bunting. '

committees were highly satisfactory' to
General O. Summers, the presiding officer,
and he expressed himself as confident
that the celebration would be the finest
yet given by the City of Portland.

Oldfield, Seibel and Wallace Will
Meet in Patriotic Sweepstakes.
Cash Prizes Will Be
Awarded.
Tomorrow afternoon, the people of
Portland will have another chance to see
Barney Oldfield, the speed king, at' Ir
vington track. The speed maniac will
drive his famous "Green Dragon" around
the track, in an attempt to lower the
record which he set a week ago Satur
day. Oldfield will not be the only driver
and if he wishes to win in all events, he
will be forced to go some. Bruno Sel
bej, the flying Dutchman, will drive his
famous Red Devil, and Bill Wallace, the
local man, will be behind the wheels in R.
D. Inman's big 70-horsepower Thomas.
A number of other local owners will en
ter cars, among which will be H. M.
Covey's ' 20-horsepower Cadillac, Fred
Bennett's six-cylinder Ford, the Cook
Company's big Peerless, and Kelly's
White.
The coming meet will in all respects,
be better than the first one. A great
many local dealers, who did not think
much, of the first races and would not
enter machines, are now glad to get a
chance to place their cars In the races.
A number of cash prizes have been do
nated for the winners in different events,
and a special prize of $500 has been post
ed for any driver who breaks a world's
record.
Bruno Seibel, the Flying Dutchman,
whose car failed in the races last Sun
day, has repaired the machine, ana. Is
willing to wager that he will go the mile
in less than a minute. He threatens to
make Wallace swallow dust, because of
the manner in whfeh'the local man beat
him. Wallace only smiles, when the
big fellow talks, and says nothing; about
his performances.
The most important race of the day
will be the big Patriotic Sweepstakes,
with Oldfield, Wallace and Seibel com
peting. All men. will start from cratch,
and the distance will be five miles.
Another important race will be the
Motor Derby, a 60-mile endurance run.

of that machine tomorrow. He resigned
his position with the Keats Motor Car
Company, and has formed a partnership
with Howard M. Covey, under the name
of Covey-Wallace Motor Car . Company.
He will drive a 20-horsepower Cadillac
and attempt to lower the world's record
for the fully equipped touring car in a
five-mile race. The Cadillac is a very
light car for its power, and It looks
as if Wallace would be able to do some
record-breaking stunts with the little
machine.

the committee. Entries are stll com

of the day of the races. Post entries

STATE TENNIS TOCRXAMEXT
Will Bo Played on Multnomah Club
Courts In August.
The tennis tournament for the cham
pionship of the state, will be held some
tjme In the early part of August. The
tourney will be played on the Multnomah
Club courts. Many of the players say
that the tourney should be held on the
Irvington courts Instead of the Multno
mah Club courts. At Multnomah the
courts are covered with asphalt, which
places a man who has always played on
clay courts at a great disadvantage. At
Multnomah there are but two courts,
while at Irvington there are six. If
there are many entries it will take a
long time to play off the tournament at
the clu. Nearly all the fast players
are In favor of holding the tourney at
the Irvington courts.
A number of the matches m the Irving
ton Tournament were played yesterday.
The committee in charge of the tourney
announces that the finals will be played
on the Fourth. Following are the results
