SAN FRANCISCO, June 17. (Special.)
For 15 innings the Commuters and the
Beavers fought and struggled on the
diamond -without result. After the last
Caklander had been retired. Umpire Jack
O'Connell, seeing that it would only
make, a farce out of the game to attempt
to prolong it, called time. The contest
had one of the most peculiar finishes
ever seen on any lot and the bone
headed play made by Haley spoiled Oak
land's chance to break It up.
Cook was on third and Hardy on sec
ond and one down-, when Haley came to
bat. He lined one down to Cooney,
forcing Cook at the plate. Instead of
tinning his own hit out, Haley deliber
tly walked to the bench. Naturally,
Van Haltren and other members of the
Oakland team came within an ace of
making a punching bag out of Haley's
face, but they took compassion on the
poor boob and lot It go at that.
Contest Is Spectacular. .
Throughout the contest was replete
with spectacular incidents and was
chock full of rattling good baseball. The
only bad feature was the time, the game
consuming no less than three hours and
20 minutes, the most time ever taken
up by a ball game since the National
pastime was introduced to San Fran
cisco 40 years ago.
The batters on both teams were wont
to loom up dar.gerouly .at times and then
fade away under the bewitching curves
of the opposing pitchers. Garrett, who
was being pounded hard by the Com
muters, was replaced by Groom in the
eighth and after that Itlme Oakland
landed but one run and that came about
through the wildness of the long boy.
Hardy was a wonder after the seventh,
holding the heavy-hitting Beavers to two
scratch hits from that time on. He
used a floater that reminded the fans of
Ham Iberg in his palmy days. Slattery
had three chances to break up the game,
but Groom and Garrett walked him pur
posely every time.

HEAVERS DROP FROM THE LEAD
Tie Game With Oakland Loses Team
First Place.'
That 15-lnning draw battle between
Portland and Oakland and Los Angeles
taking the Seals down tho line yanked
us back into second place. The hold we
have on that position is still pretty se
cure, but with McCredie using up two
pitchers in one game, there is a grave
chance that his pitching staff will be
shot to pieces before the Oakland series
is through.
According to the dispatch from San
Francisco, the only thing that kept us
from getting our perecentage figures jolt
ed was Haley's mutt play. Whether this
was done deliberately remains to be seen.
Haley hasn't been satisfied with his
berth and it may develop that he did this
trick to obtain his release. While Haley
may tie charged with a. boob play,
Groom was responsible for the run that
gave the Oaks a chance to tie the game
into a knot.
Groom is a rattling good pitcher, but
he is too prone to play his own game and
not listen to advice or instructions. He
is forever getting himself into tight
places, and when he is beaten. It is not,
as a rule, because he is hit, but because
of his wildness.
Los Angeles seems to be turning the
tables on the Seals, and they will be
exceptional- lucky It they break even.
The local fans, however, need net worry,
for Hen Berry's hired men are only a
little over one game to tho good. It will
be Ed Kinsella's time to perform this
afternoon, either" against Hopkins or
Kilian, and as he has been going along
nicely, he ought to win his game.
DNGE GREAT PITCHER DEAD
A1RGIL GARVIX VICTIM TO COX
SUM PTI OX.
Inventor or Fall Away Ball and
Former Big League Star Pitched
for Portland.
The news of Virgil Garvin's death,
which occurred at Fresno, Cal.. Tuesday,
will be read wtih regret, not only on the
Pacific Coast, where he lived for a num
ber of years, but throughoutthe East.
Garvin was the inventor of the famous
"fall-away" ball, and when he made his
debut in the big league, he was a mys
tery to all of the timber wielders of the
big bushes. He would have been great
to the nd but for his fondness for liquor,
for when not in his cups he was the
most delightful f men. When he was
drinking he was a terror and would re
sort without reason to either knife or
revolver.
Ballplayers who have known Garvin for
BASEBALL PITCHER DEAD OF
, COX SUMPTION.
years always predicted that he would
either kill someone and land in the peni
tentiary or be killed himself. But the
great white plague saved him this dis
grace. Garvin was born in Texas. He was a
man of some education and came of fine
parents. When at himself, Garvin was
gentlemanly in his manner. His heart
was as big as all out doors, and for weeks
he would grieve over the things he had
done during one of his lapses. Garvin's
first great trouble, and one that had as
much to do with his leaving fast com
pany, was a shooting scrape in which he
shot at a policeman in Chicago. He
seemed to lose his grip after this. He
was signed by McCredie and until his
wife's health began to fail Garvin stayed
straight.
From the Portland team Garvin went
to the Northwestern League and played
for Butte. He spent part of last Winter
at Seattle, against the advice of his phy
sicians. His wife's mind had failed and
he wanted to be near her. The players
and fans of Seattle sent him to Texas
to die, but It is supposed that Garvin
grew restless and went to California.
RACIXG PURSES CUT BOWS
Sheepshead Feels Knife Brighton
Beach Takes Like Action.
NEW YORK, June 17. The Coney
Island Jockey Club, which conducts the
meeting at Sheepshead Bay, gave out the
following announcement today: '
"The Coney Island Jockey Club greatly
regrets being obliged to reduce added
money 50 per cent for all unclosed races
at the coming June meeting. The pro
gramme for stake races will not be
changed and the added money in these
events will not be reduced."
It is assured that the Brooklyn Jockey
Club, under the direction of P. J. Dwyer.
will finish its meeting without reduction
of purses.
The Brighton Beach Racing Association
has issued a circular and is as follows:
"The recent repeal of the Percy-Gray
law has made it doubtful whether racing
can be continued in New York on the
plane that it has occupied for many
years. This association intends to make
every possible effort to keep the sport as
it is, and with the end in view we ask
you to assist us by signing the enclosed
consent permitting us, should -necessity
arise, to modify or withdraw any sched
ules of this association already closed."
The consent mentioned is an agreement
to accept tho decision of the association
in either the cancelling of stakes to be
run or the reduction of stakes in propor
tion to the amount of money added. The
Brighton Beach Association abandoned
four stakes, the- Trump, Sunshine and
Undergraduate for 2-year-olds and the
Chantilly steeplechase.
The most important . fixtures of the
Brighton racing which thus have been
so doubtful that horsemen have gtven
up any idea that they would be run. are
the J25.000 Brighton handicap. $25,000
Derby, J250O Venus and the Invincible
handicap, $7500 added at the Summer
meeting, and the tSO.OOO Brighton Prod

STATEMENT MEN
TO CONTROL
Hope to Capture Both Houses
in Organization of Next
Legislature.
UNITE WITH DEMOCRATS
Probable- That No Party' Caucus Will
Be Held, for Fear Anti-Statement
Forces "Will Gain
a Foothold.
Statement No. 1 members-elect of the
Oregon Legislature do not propose to
take any chances of having either
branch of the lawmaking body organ
ized by unfriendly forces. Plans al
ready are being formulated by which
the Statement members expect to cap
ture the organization of both houses.
In carrying out their programme, how
ever, the Republicans (Statement men)
undoubtedly will be Joined by the 15
Democratic members whose votes will
be required for the successful organ
ization' that is proposed by the legisla
tors who are pledged to elect Governor
Chamberlain as United States Senator.
The details of the plan, it is said, pro
pose that the Democratic members, in
return for their support in the work of
organization, are to content themselves
with the election of Governor Cham
berlain to the Senatorship. at the same
time conceding to the Statement Re
publican members all of the impor
tant committee chairmanships.
It is also understood that the only
caucus In which the Statement mem
bers will participate, preliminary to
the organization of the House and the
Senate, will be a Joint conference of
the Statement members of both houses.
The Statement men in the House will
not go into a caucus of the Republican
members of that body, because they
would be outnumbered by the anti
Statement members, who would be able
to control the organization of that
branch. In the Senate, the Statement
members would not' be taking any
chances In a caucus, having 12 of their
number, against 11 of the opposition,
the other seven members of the Senate
being Democrats. But in order to in
sure the organization o fboth houses
by the Statement forces, it is predicted
sure the organization of both houses
will refrain from participating in an
individual caucus of either branch of
the Legislature.
Need Democrats' Help.
v The Statement people insist that it is
imperative" for them to control the
organization of the Legislature by.
electing b&th the President of the Sen
ate and the Speaker of the House, and
at the same time capturing the chair
manship and control of all of the im
portant committees. This can be done
only by the assistance of the Demo
cratic members, and it will be left to
Governor Chamberlain and State Chair
man Alex Sweek, of the Democratic
organization, to line up the members
of the minority party, in the interest
of the election of Chamberlain to the
Senatorship. The Statement Republi
cans appreciate the situation, and fig
ure that by getting on the ground
early, fortified by the influence of the
Governor and the Democratic state or
ganization, they will be able to make
an effectual combination and check
mate any move on the part ofcthe anti
Statement forces to entice from the
Democratic forces any member by the
promise of a covetous committee chair
manship as reward for his vote and
assistance in capturing the organiza
tion of either the Senate or the House.
In seeking to elect the presiding officers
of both Houses and secure control of all
Important committees, the Statement
members explain that they consider it es
sential to the future of the principle on
which they have been elected. They point
to the fact that a majority of the mem
bers of the Legislature are Statement men
and as a result it will be known as a
Statement No.. 1 Legislature and the
Statement forces ill be held responsible.
It is for that reason they Insist on hav
ing full control of the legislative machin
ery, suspecting that the anti-Statement
forces, even should they fail to organize
either of ths two Houses, will do every
thing possible to embarrass the majority.
Multnomah Expects One.
In planning for the election of tho
President of the Senate and the Speaker
of the House, the Statement men realize
that the best Multnomah County can ex
pert will be the selection of one of these
officers. The indications are that Senator
Kay, of Marion, will be the choice of the
Statement people for President of the
Senate. His recent declaration that he
would support Governor Chamberlain for
Senator appears to have satisfied the
Statement forces of his firm allegiance to
that principle. State Senator-elect Ben
Selling is a receptive candidate for this
honor, but it is understood that he will
step aside for any other man on whom
the Statement forces can agree, in the
interest of harmony. H. R. Albee and
Dan Kellaher, also Senators-elect from
this county, have been suggested as pos
sible material for President of the upper
House, but. like Selling, are reported to
be interested first in a successful record
for the Statement legislators, even if it
involves the sacrifice of personal ambi
tions. Among the anti-Statement members of
the Senate, State Senator S. C. Beach, of
this county, would accept the honor, al
though he declares he is not making an
active canvass. Jay Bowerman, Senator
elect from . Gilliam-Sherman-Wheeler, is
probably the only - anti-Statement man
who will prove a factor in the contest for
President. The Statement forces, how
ever, profess not to be alarmed over the
candidacy of either Beach or Bowerman
and allege they will have the necessary
votes to carry the day when the time for
organizing arrives. They charge that
Beach injured any chance he ever had of
assistance . or encouragement from the
Statement forces in his fight for the
Presidency when he joined in sending a
telegram to Fulton Tuesday and went out
of his way to slap the Statement mem
bers in the face.
Orton, Abbott or Jneger.
With the probable election of Sen
ator Kay as president of the Senate,
in accordance with the programme, the
choice of Speaker of the House un
doubtedly would fall to Multnomah
county. While the Statement people
in this county had various candidates
for president, they are well supplied
with material for the Speakership. A.
W. Orton was the original Represen
tative to come out for the place, but
he has assured his .associates that he
is willing to offer himself as a sacri
fice on the altar of harmony and with
draw in the interest of any other can
didate that may more unanimously be
indorsed by the delegation from this
county. James D. Abbott and E. J.
Jaeger more recently have let the fact
become known that they would take
N
the Job of presiding: over the 60 mem
bers of the lower House.
It is rumored that Abbott would get
out of the way for Jim Campbell, of
Clackamas, another Statement aspi
rant for the Speakership, but with
Multnomah insisting on the Speaker
ship, should the presidency go to Sen
ator Kay, the chances of neither Ab
bott nor Campbell would be greatly
promoted by the Retirement of Abbott
in favor of the Clackamas man. How
pvpt. th rfetaila nf orennization nre in
an embryonic state, and before manyl
weeks have passed the delegation from
this county expects to be able to unice
on some member of the delegation for
Speaker.
The Statement forces recognize in C.
N. McArthur, of Clackamas and Mult
nomah their most formidable opponent
for the Speakership, but declare the
young lawyer will not succeed in get
ting any support from the Statement
members of the House.

With Thompson in the box this looked
like a good lead, but Butte came back
in the same inning with four, two of
which were wild-pitched by Thompson,
ordinarily a steady slabsman. Two more
were added in the third, Thompson
throwing the ball away trying to get a

taken out and Boyle finished, doing well

times. A single and a double in the fifth
