THK MORN IRC? OKEGtoxIAN", FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1907. IRlGTOfl TfiACK TO BE DESTROYED Famous Race Course Will Be Cut Up Into Building Lots and Sold. STABLES BEING VACATED Work of Demolition to Bo Begun To morrow and Soon Place of Many Historic Turf Meets Will Be Thing of the Past. Irving-ton track Is no more. The famous old race course, where so many enthusiastic, well-dressed crowds have gathered In the past to witness the groins of the ponies, the speeding of the autolsts, and the races between famous trotters and clears, is to be destroyed, the acreagre cut up Into town lots, and residences erected where for years the sound of, galloping hoofs and the hoarse cries of the announcer held sway. Last night gloom pervaded the quar ters where the veteran horsemen and trainers live during the season when the thoroughbreds are not racing and are Quartered at the track. The vet erans who had come to recognize the track as their home during the many years they have attended the stables there. Badly shook their heads when the order to vacate immediately was handed them. Old John Sawyer, probably the vet eran of them all, took the order very hard, and will probably take his stable to McMlnnville today or tomorrow. J. B. Stetson, John Pender, Amos King, "Doc" Ward, Harry Osmon, and the others, will also take their horses to McMlnnville and Salem, where meets are arranged to take place In the near future. Irvtngton has always had a population of Its own, for there Is scarcely any per iod of the year when 100 or more horses are not quartered In the paddocks and stalls. When the stalls are comfortably filled the expenditure for feed, training, etc., amounts to between J4000 and $8000 a month, which sum will now be lost to Portland until the track and stables of the new country club are completed. Tomorrow the work of tearing down the stables, grandstand and fences of the place where Chehalls. Zombro and other famous turf performers delighted the thousands will begin, and within a few weeks the site will be but a memory as far as racing Is concerned. In its place residences will (be erected and streets graded to connect with adjoin ing thoroughfarec. The transfer of the 80-e.cre tract of land on the East Bids,, known for many years past as Irvlngton P.fcce Track, is the first transfer of Che property since its acquisition by William Irving as a do nation land claim from the United States Government. Last week the ownership passed from Mrs. Elizabeth Ryan, widow of William Irving, and her daughters, to the Multnomah Fair Association, by which association It was transferred to the Merchants' Savings -c Trust Corn many, as trustees. About 1892 the Portland Speed and Driv ing Association took a lease of the 80 acres, made the track and erected stables and grandstand. Racing was con ducted on the track for some time, but finally the association failed and several other associations were formed only to be overtaken by the same late. It was not until 1903 that the first successful meetings were conducted, when the Mult nomah Fair Association took over the lease. This association had for its of ficers A. R. Diamond, president: Cap tain E. W. Spencer, vice president, and L. H. Adams, secretary and treasurer. Racing was conducted by this associa tion in 1903 and in 1904. and was In the middle of the season of 1905 when Cap tain Spencer became dissatisfied with the business and secured an Injunction re straining the association from running the track where pools were sold, contend ing It was contrary to law. A bitter fight ensued between Spencer and his partners, but the injunction Issued and from that time there has been no racing at the track except an occasional test of speed by trotters and pacers. The picture re published herewith shows the grandstand and a portion of the track on the occa sion of the Fourth of July meeting of the Riverside Driving Club, the last races that are ever to be held on the track, in all probability. It is learned from an authoritative source that the tract Is to be cut up into building lots In the near future, and as the property Is already bounded on the east, south and west by lots that are re garded by real estate dealers as among the best locations In the city for resi dence purposes, this addition of some 450 lots will attract the attention of buy ers at once to this section of the growing East Side. Irvlngton, in that portion which Includes the new plat, has about 4500 lots that are laid out with uniformity of improvements strip of lawn next the curbing, hard streets and cement side walks. The new owners of the tract are for the present withholding their names, the trust company declaring It Is not at lib erty to divulge any Information regarding the deal, further than to say that it acts in the capacity of trustee.

CLUB BAR STILL RUNNING Whether Mllwaukie Gamblers Will Attempt to Reopen Still a Secret. Despite he fact that the Mllwaukie Country Club is closed, the bar continues to run as formerly, whether an attempt will be made to reopen the games, the officials of the club are the only ones who are Informed, and they decline to discuss the prospect for future business. But if the club does again throw open its doors. It is almost certain that Mayor Schindler. of Mllwaukie, will not oppose the move, although it Is Just as probable that it will meet with opposition from the authorities of the state. "One could hardly take a man's money, and then turn him out," said the Mayor last night, when asked for a statement of his position in regard to the matter. "It wouldn't look well for me to issue a li cense to a peddler, and after he had gone up the street for two blocks to send a policeman after him and order him out of the town. The same principle holds good respecting the Mllwaukie Club." J. E. Culllson said he had nothing to say In regard to the plans of the club. Ike Gratton, said to be the chief owner in the establishment, and also said to have been succeeded by Sam Jones, Is on his way to New York from Europe. Jones is now at Arlington. The slotmachines formerly in use by the club are lined up against the wall in the saloon, and It would take the manage ment but a few hours to again open the resort to that class of the public which Is Interested In games of chance. Tacoma Terminal Case Lost. TACOMA. Wash.. Aug. 8. An opinion has been handed down by Judges Clif ford and Reid, of the Superior Court of Pierce County, denying the application of Messrs. Whltehouse and Mohr as members of the Chamber of Commerce of Tacoma for a writ of mandamus to compel the Northern Pacific Railway to operate its through trains direct to and from Tacoma, Instead of being delayed by going from Auburn to Seattle and back and thence over the Palmer cut off. The contention of the parties was that the stub train service was a' viola tion of the charter.

That was all In the scoring line, for In spite of the frequent occasions when "almost" runs were In sight, both Carnes and Elon gated Robert Groom behaved In the proper manner and disposed of the situation quite handily. It was a great game for the rooters, for they had all kinds of baseball handed them In that one lone inning and the crack of the bat followed by the scur rying of the outfielders aroused enough enthusiasm to cause a riot call to be sent In were it to occur in the business section of the city. Except for the sensation always caused by a long drive, there was not much en thusiasm in the first half of the third, for In that Inning Jimmy Smith connected- for a triple, and this was fol lowed by Helny Heltmuller, who dented the sphere for a trip to second base and gave Smith the desired opportunity of planting both feet leisurely on the home plate. This did not Iook very promis ing from a Portland viewpoint, especially when the 700 or 800 of the faithful had braved the threatening showers to wit ness their favorite sport, but the Port land boys redeemeu themselves (nobly and when they finished tahying the fans were about exhausteu and the majority so hoarse from shouting that iney were satisfied to remain .quiet for the balance of the game. Mott, who was the first man up, was also the last man out, being retired at first base both times. Pearl Casey fol lowed the third sacker and Induced Carnes to issue a ticket. Casey immed iately stole second, and Atherton suc ceeded In prevailing on the Oakland twlrler to continue his liberality anu also walked. Manager McCredle looked like a dangerous proposition to the visitors and he was also disposed of by the pass route, and it was up to Patsy Donohue to connect, for the sacks were populated thickly. Truck Eagan and Haley played back, expecting a double play, but the clever Portland backstop proved himself better than Carnes and straisatened one to a territory that was unoccupied by the anxious Oakland fielders, with the result that Casey and Atherton dented the plat ter and Portland was one to the good. Then came Mr. Burdette, the newly acquired real ball player, and the man ner in which he soaked the horsehide startled the Commuters out of their senses and by the time they recovered, McCredle and Donahue had cashed their tickets and Burdette was safely ensconced on third. This uncorked large quantities of enthusiasm, and by the time Billy Pangle, Eddie Short, George Cadwell, Mart Gruber, Jimmy Anderson, Bob Stevens, Billy Robson, the Hood River contingent and the rest of the rooters exhausted themselves, little Joe Fay sent them into hysterics by rapping one for two bases that scored Burdette. That made five runs, and even though Bobby Groom broke into the slugger class, Bassey ' and Mott were unable to score any more runs. Judge George H. Williams, Port land's oldest and most enthuslastio fan, sat quietly throughout the tick ling proceedings and expressed his ap proval by sundry smiles of satisfaction. After the third inning the pitchers settled down anj worked In the most approved manner. Groom got his strikeout curves working and after Portland had the padlock on the game he fanned six of the opposing bats men and kept the hits down to four during the remainder of the matinee. Carnes did even better than that, for after his disastrous inning Casey's double was the only swat Portland was able to credit In the score sheet. Today will be ladles' day and Hart man will twirl for Portland, while Eli Cates will do the honors for the visit ors. The score: OAKLAND. AB. R. IB. PO. A. B.

Donahue and Groom vied with each other In demonstrating the art of handling- a shovel. They volunteered to dispose of a sogrgy patch of earth In front of the pitcher's box, and while so engaged some one shouted "more mort," and Donny, believing that he was mistaken for a hod-carrier or somethng like that, threw down the shovel and retired. Bill Devereaux kept the crowd en thused by his ludicrous antics until the ninth Inning, when Bobby Groom, quite unkindly dented the Red Dog's slats with a .wild shoot, and Bill forgot all the funny things that made him more famous than Kolb, Dill, Ben Dillon or Barney Bernard in the Bay City. Bill almost got angry at the lanky Port land twlrler, but Groom and Donahue jollied him out of the notion. Manager McCredle looked dangerous to the Oakland twlrler yesterday and was passed to first when the locals be came threatening. The big fellow also distinguished himself by pulling down a drive from Jack Bliss" bat which caused him to bump heavily into the fence In the third Inning and also retired the side. Mac also retrieved Heitmuller's long drive In the eighth and held the big ex-Berkeley man at first base. Heltmuller hit safely in the first and stole second, making the bag because Donahue threw high to Fay, but fool ishly tried to take an extra base.
