Oakland BO M .5.2 I Portland 0 64 .8S4 4 Pitcher Callff'8 indifference yesterday was responsible for the Los Angeles vier tory over the home team by the score of While he cannot be "charged with the last four runs acquired by the leaders, Califf gave them their start and by so doing the result was never In doubt. The Oregon City wonder, who really should be one of the best and most reliable pitcher in the lnague, was suffering from an, attack of indifference which is noticeable in about two, of every three games he pitches. Califf is a good pitcher; has everything in the line of curves and shoots that any pitcher in the league possesses, but he is visited oft with recurring spells of lazi ness. The blame for yesterday's defeat can be attributed to no other cause but the indifferent behavior of the Portland twlrler, and he should have been chased to the clubhouse in the sixth Inning when he allowed Dillon to hit the ball, when two were out and two men on bases. It was plainly apparent that the correct tac tics at that time should have been to pass the Angel leader who had shown his ability in the early part of the game, and taken a chance on retiring Ellis, who has been hitting poorly of late. Instead Califf placed one directly In the groove and the Angel captain laced it out for two bases scoring two runs. Not satisfied with this the Oregon City wonder passed Ellis to first and followed up this liberal manner of pitching by hit ting Jud Smith and Issuing a . walk to Bert Delmas which forced Dillon over for the third run of the Inning. How in the world he ever managed to get Bobby Eager to bite on one of his curves Is a mystery that may never be solved, but at any rate the chubby catcher ended the agony by flying to Bassey. Score Los Angeles.3; Portland, 1. The first run annexed by Portland came In the fifth Inning, and view of the splendid way Califf had behaved up to the sixth, the large ladies' day attend ance was jubilant at the prospect of a shutout for the visiting aggregation, and the assuming of the lead by Los Angeles in such a manner was not pleasing in the least. Califf probably received a calldown from Manager - McCredle, for when he . commenced pitching the seventh inning ie was smarting from Justly administered blame, and showed plainly his utmost in difference as to the outcome. The first two Angels filed out, and then the fire works started. Hits, bases on balls and some more hits caused a general excur sion around the bases on the part of the visitors, and to cap all his poor work, the pitcher stood dumbly In his position while a ball was being fielded by Casey and Pokorny. either of whom could have easily thrown Ellis out had Califf cdv ered first as he should have done. This action on the part of Califf caused Casey's anger to arise and the justly in dignant little second baseman la charged with an error because he threw the ball away after seeing that there was no one at first to retire the batter. This cost two runs. In the eighth Manager McCredie trotted out a new one. John Drew by name, who Is not quite as accomplished a pitcher as his namesake' Is an actor, but the busher nevertheless made a fair impression. He went up in the air in the ninth and the visitors connected 'for four more runs. Ray Lovett decided to embrace the In surance business immediately and did not show up at the baseball grounds yester day. Pat Donohue played centerfield and Carl Moore donned the mask and pad. Portland's second run came in the sev enth on hits by McCredie and Donahue. The score: LOS ANGELES. A.B. R. IB. P.O. A. E. Bernard, cf 4 0 1 2 0 0 Carllale.

Captain Frank Dillon of the Angela had his batting clothes on yesterday and connected for four swats, the last three of which figured in the rungettlng for his Team. Pernoll, the Grant's Pass twlrler is to take another fling at the Los Angeles team Sunday afternoon. The kid is a clever twlrler and Is ambitious to beat the slug gers from the Orange belt. He lost his last game through a combination of cir cumstances and because Dolly Gray was unbeatable. Gray is to pitch against him again. Big Ed KInsella. Portland's tall right hander has been on the sick list for sev eral days. He is better and was In uniform yesterday and will probably be sent against the viators today. Burns will work for Los Angeles. Manager McCredie la wondering what RAD has happened to Mike Mitchell's brother and anothet ball player named Nolan, whom he wired to report at Portland sev eral weeks ago. So far neither of them has shown up, nor has the management received any word from them. Young Mitchell ..Is said . to be a rising young player and promises to equal the record made by his elder brother who is now with Cincinnati In the National League. John Drew, the new pitcher tried out yesterday, hailed originally from Cali fornia, but recently has been in the Northern part' of Idaho working on a ranch. vHe formerly played ball with Umpire Derrick in California, and several of the Northwestern League clubs have been trying to get him. Walter McCredie made the first hit for Portland in the second inning 'when he smashed one that sailed over Brashear's head. Brash leaped in the air and tried to pull it down but Just barely touched the ball. Pokorny is given an error in the sev enth on a throw from Califf, which really should go to the pitcher, who at the time seemed not to care how he threw the ball. The new first Backer might have stopped the ball had he tried the one hand racket, but lack of confidence caused him to try with both and the ball caromed off the end of the mit. Oakland 11. San Francisco 2. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. - 2. Oakland hammered Henley all over the lot in to day's game, and in the fourth inning Wil lis was substituted.

NORTHWEST LEAGIT. Seattle 5, Butte 3. SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 2. (Special.) Stanley's error, a double by Bell and Myers' home run gave Butte the three runs the Miners got today. As Seattle gathered In five, the temporary lapse of Harry Rush did not hurt much. Irby got two singles and these, with the good, clean belts of Bell and, Myers, were all the real hits that Rush allowed during the afternoon. Stltes gets credit for a hit because Irby ran into the ball for the third out in the last inning. With men on second and third, Donovan and Rochon got mixed over Shaffer's easy fly between short and left field, and two runs scored in the first. Howell's single and Ross' home run 'in the second net ted a brace and the fifth came with a base on balls, errors by Roosevelt and Adams and a long fly to the outfield In the seventh.

Umpire Ehret. I Spokane 4, Tacoma 2. TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 2. (Special.) The Tigers had a brainstorm in the eighth Inning today and allowed three runs to be scored without the aid of a single hit. As a result Spokane took the lead and kept it. With the bases full in the eighth. Swain hit a grounder to Breslno which the latter fielded and threw perfectly to Shea at home. Carney coming from third, deliberately kicked the ball out of Shea's hand, it seemed to the spectators, but Umpire Frary did not call it a foul play. While Shea was arguing with the umpire. Rowan also scored from second base. Wild throws by Shea and Lynch gave the visitors an other tally before the fateful Inning closed. Spokane made one run in the sixth on a hit, two sacrifices and Downle's error, Killaway pitched a strong game for Spokane, Butler struck out less but held the Indians to Ave hits. Tacoma's six errors were very costly. Score: R.H.B. Tacoma 0 0020000 02 6 6 Spokane 0 0000103 04 5 1 Batteries Butler and Shea; Killey and Swindells. NATIONAL) LEAGUE. Won. Lojt.

Breaks Blethen Record. HOQUIAM, Wash.. Aug. 2. (Special.) F. A. Mitchell, accompanied by Robert Taylor and H. L. Gillman in an American motorcar of 24-32 horsepower yesterday broke the much touted Blethen record be tween Seattle and Hoquiam, making the trip by lapsed time in six hours, 1314 minutes. Mr. Mitchell said on hearing that a Franklin car made the trip in this time I started out to break the record and could have clipped 20 minutes off my record but for a slight accident and the fact that I lost the road. I will wager $1000 on the authenticity of this statement and that a record can be made by myself with this same car which will stand. Comes to Arrange Yacht Race. NEW YORK. Aug. 2.
