MAY GAMP FOR TWO WEEKS
NATIONAL. GUARD Jf AY STAY
LONGER OX AMERICAN LAKE.
Department Has Been Asked for
Permission and Funds Will
Warrant Expense.
SEATTLE. Wash.. -June 7. (Special.)
The Washington and Oregon National
Guard troops may remain in camp for
two weeks at American Lake In August,
instead of 10 days, as ordered by the
War Department, as a result of requests)
from the militia officers of the two
states. The fund for encampment in the
treasuries of the two states will warrant
the extra four days, and the Department
at Washington will doubtless grant the
request, which will be forwarded this
week.
Adjutant-General Otis Hamilton la to
confer with Colonel George B. Lamping
and other militia officers in regard to the
encampment and the state rifle shoot
today. The plan to increase the length
of the encampment meets with the ap
proval of practically all militia offi
cers. "The extra four days will be worth
more to the regiment." said Colonel
Lamping last night, "than the whole 10
days preceding. It always takes four or
five days to get the militia boys broken
Into camp routine, and 10 days; is alto
gether too short a- time to get good re
sults. "We will ask that the regiment go Into
camp Sunday morning. August 2. and
that we break camp Saturday afternoon,
August 15, so that all the companies can
be home before Monday morning."

OUTBAT BEAVERS
Angels Lead in Batting During
Last Week.
STORY TOLD BY AVERAGES
Number of Local Players Who Are
Usually Good Batsmen Puzzled
by the Twirlers From
the South.
Batting averages of the Portland and
Los Angeles teams during the series
ended yesterday explain, In a measure,
the cause of the home team"s failure
to take the majority of the contests
played. In team batting, Los Angefes
secured a percentage 13 Doints better
than the home club, but Portland made
up for this deficiency and scored as
many runs as did the Angels, which
helped considerably In gaining an
even break with the visiting clubs.
Big Hal Danzig, who participated in
only four games of the series, being
kept out of the other two games by
illness, leads the McCredleites in the
hitting line with an average of .400.
Bobby Groom eecured an average of
.333 by hitting eafely in the two games
he worked. Tom Raftery played in
every game, and seems to have re
gained that lost batting eye which has
worried him of late, for the fleet
footed center fielder batted an aver
age of .304 for the week. Johnson and
Cooney swelled their averages a trifle,
but Bassey. Casey, Ryan and McCredie
fell off heavily before the assaults of
the Angel pitchers.
Among the seraphic contingent. Jud
Smith, Easterly and Kitty Brashear
proved the strongest batsmen, for the
Portland twlrlers failed to puzzle them
very much, and each is credited with
a comfortable average for the week's
effort with the club. Smith and Bras
hear had each suffered a bad slump,
so the Increase In their percentages
will be decidedly welcome. Captain
Dillon and George Wheeler were the
marks for the Portland twlrlers, for
neither of them hit over .160. Oakes
also had a bad week in the hitting
line, and Delmas did not hit as strong
as usual.
The averages of the two teams for
the series of six games are as follows:

WOODBURX GETS TWO GAMES
Oregon City Papermakers . Prove
Easy Marks for Opponents.
WOODBURN, Or., June 7. (Special.)
Woodburn won two games here this
afternoon from Oregon' City, the first by
a score of 10 to 4, and the second 4 to 1.
Both games were sleepy affairs. Marshall
and Robinson were the opposing slabsters
in the first game and honors were about
even, but Marshall was given the better
support though it lacked a great deal of
being perfect. Holmes and Habernicht
were the . artillerists in the second en
gagement, and the former had the best
of the duel and would have shut the
"Papermakers" out had his support been
perfect. In spite of the many errors,
several brilliant plays brought cheers
from the spectators, notably three doubles
by the locals, and Lavier's three-fly swat
with the bases full, and a hard fly that
Huddleston picked off the grass in center
field during the first game.

dock pitched a fine game, keeping bis
hits scattered. Aberdeen's lone 'run came
in thu seventh. Fitzgerald walked and
Quigley's error allowed him to go to
third on Brown's hit. Thompson hit to
Quigley, who made a double play instead
of trying to head. Fitzgerald off at the

Donovan walked and was driven home by
Quigley' s two-bagger. In the fourth
Hyatt lifted the ball over the fence and
Nordyke followed with a double. He
was sacrificed to third, and .Thompson

all around the park, filling every nook

took the final game from Seattle today. 3
to 2, and made it five out of six for the
series. The victory put the Indians at
the top of theNorthwest League percent
age column. Both teams played fast,
clean ball. The game ended with a sen
sational one-handed leaping catch of a
hard liner from Bennett's bat by James,
doubling Stanley off first, smothering a
possible rally.
The crowd has been variously esti

ALLIES WILL BACK DOWN
(Continued From First Page.)
yesterday just prior to adjournment. That
the effect was not what the "allies" ex
pected was admitted todc - by a number
of men who had knowledge of the entire
proceedings. Senator Crane, of Massa
chusetts, who has been recognized as one
of the chief advisers of the anti-Taft
movement, said today that the announce
ment should not have been made. Sen
ator Hemenway characterized the story
that the "allies" had decided to bolt as
"unauthorized." .
Mr. Kealing was not so emphatic, but
he Intimated that somebody had been
dreaming. A. B. Humphreys, the Hughes
manager, said that he had not attended
the conference, but that he had agreed to
abide by any decision reached. Manag
ers for Speaker Cannon and Senators La
Follette ani Foraker were not parties to
the announcement.
Shrewd Move for Harmony.
ir became known today that the ad
journment of the National committee
yesterday was largely in the nature of a
diplomatic proceeding. It had been sug
gested to Senator Lodge, an ardent sup
porter of Taft, that. Inasmuch as the
nomination of Taft on the first ballot
seemed highly probable, the remainder of
the' contests should be settled on a har
mony basis. Among those who urged
this plan were Chairman New. Secretary
Dover. Committeemen Mulvane, of Kan
sas. Hart of Iowa. Crane of Massachu
setts, Scott of West Virginia, Ward of
New York, Heyburn of Idaho. Browniow
of Tennessee and Scott of Alabama. The
plan was not received with favor by many
members of the committee who have
dominated the proceedings from the start.
At the suggestion of Frank H. Hitch
cock, manager for Taft and holder of the
proxy of the New Mexico member of the
committee, an adjournment was taken
until Monday. The Taft forces at once
commenced a series of telegraph and tele
phone communications between here and
Washington. Neither Mr. Hitchcock nor
Charles P. Taft, brother of the Secre
tary, was Inclined to yield to tha over
tures made. Both were embarrassed,
however, by the appeals made by certain
members of what Is known as the "old
guard" in the Republican ranks.
Indorsement From Washington.
Before noon today Mr. Hitchcock had
received from Washington an official in
dorsement of the "standpat" position he
had taken, and the statement was made
that if the "allies" declined to continue
their contests before the National com
mittee, the temporary roll of the conven
tion would be filled by the Taft delegates
from the contested districts.
"It is nothing but a bluff, and I am not
going to be scared by it," said Mr. Hitch
cock late last night, when told of tho
move of the allies. This expression was
not made for publication, but It was car
ried to the anti-Taft people. It was
noised about that President Roosevelt
and Secretary Taft had determined to
hold' the Southern delegations which had
been gained, and that no concessions
could be expected from the Taft manage
ment. The effect of this announcement was
immediate. Conferences were again
called by the "allies.''' but. as before, only
representatives of .Vice-President Fair
banks and Senator Knox, with Senator
Crane, who in a general way seems to
represent all of the anti-Taft people, were
present. Senaor Crane condemned the
plan of violating the regularity of the
convention procedure, and insisted that.
regardless of the result, the contests
should be continued before the National
committee. Senator Hemenway, of Indi
ana, Joined in this opinion, and It was
agreed that all of the "allies" should
meet late today. This conference, the
last of an all-day series, was productive
of the "statement from the allies."
Senator Crane said today that after
the contests brought by the anti-Taft
delegations had been turned down by
the National committee, they would
be submitted to the credentials com
mittee of the convention itself, but
that he did not doubt that the result
would be the sustaining of the Na
tional committee.
If the Taft managers hold by their
declarations, and it is evident that the
attitude of the managers of the local
headquarters reflects the situation in
Washington, concessions to the anti
Taft camp can be gained by a com
plete surrender of all opposition. It
was . announced today that Arthur
Vorys, another of the managers, will
arrive here tomorrow. Representative
McKinley, chief of the Cannon forces,
and Senator Dick, who Is looking after
the interests of Senator Foraker, are
also' expected.
All of the contests still to be settled
are brought by negro voters instructed
for Senator Foraker, excepting four dis
tricts in Kentucky, which are claimed for
Vice-President Fairbanks, and two in
Missouri, which are claimed for Governor
Hughes. It was rumored here tonight,
but not confirmed, that Senator Dick will
order that many of the Foraker con
tests be defaulted in the interest of Sec
retary Taft.
The committee will begin work again
at 10 o'clock tomorrow, taking up first the
contests of the Third Florida District.
