GETS TWO, STRAIGHT FALLS First In 15 Minutes and 25 Seconds and Second In 25 Minutes and 54 Seconds Wins by Crotch and Hair - Nelson Hold. ' 8EATTL.E. July 1. Frank Gotch. of Humboldt, la., maintained his right to the world's catch-as-catch-can wrestling championship tonight when he out-classed Dr. B. F. Roller, of Seattle, winning two consecutive falls In 15 minutes and 25 seconds, and 25 minutes and 54 Beconds, respectively. The men entered the ring weighing close to 200 pounds each. Roller may have been a pound or two the heavier. They went at It like bulls from the very start and Gotch was soon forcing matters. He worked his notorious toe hold six times in succession in the first bout. Roller broke away each time, but It wore on him ami finally Gotch downed him with a crotch and half-Nelson. Roller did better work In the second bout, but Gotch was like a terrier after a rat. and went from hold to hold with startling rapidity. Roller's best work In this round was to break a half Nelson and a crotch, after being seemingly lost. He was finally picked up and dumped to his shoulders from the same hold. It is doubtful If he was really downed, but It was only a question of minutes any way, as he was at Gotch's mercy. Eddie Gatfney, of Seattle, was referee. Owing to the high prices, the crowd was not more than 3000. M GREDIE IS NOT WORRIED BELIEVES SUNDAY BAMj WILL CONTINUE IN PORTLAND. Beaver Manager Says District At torney-Elect Cameron Is Loyal Fan Himself. SAN FRANCISCO, July 1. (Special.) -Walter McCredie is not particularly worried over the story trom Portland regarding 'the announcement that Dis trict Attorney-elect Cameron was con sidering stopping Sunday baseball. "The new District Attorney," said McCredie, "Is a great baseball fan him self and never misses any games. He attended Sunday baseball, as well as hundreds of our best people. If there is any trouble we can easily get the railroad company to build us a park where the law will not Interfere. But I don't look for any serious opposition to Sunday baseball." While no announcement was made. It Is known that McCredie expects to have Hess, the Cleveland pitcher, very shortly. Ho has a wire from Cleveland stating that waivers have been asked on Hess, and in case there is no pro- test filed, Hess will be shipped to the Pacific Coast at once. In order to strengthen the team as much aa pos sible during the Illness of Garrett, Mc Credie has signed Pitcher Roy McFar land, who was released the day pre vlous by the Oakland management. "I'm after that pennant this year," said McCredie, "and if money will help us get It, the money will be spent. AMERICAN LEAGUE. Won. Lost. Won.

The Seals took their second straight fall out of the Beavers this afternoon by the same score as yesterday, 4 to 2. The vic tory was brought labout by a couple of good rallies with the club and the wild- ness of young Marshall, who passed six men in three . innings and was lucky to get out as easily as he did. Marshall passed Melchoir.sWIlliams and Henderson in a row in the third and Wll Hams registered on Berry's out short to first. During the fourth, Melcholr singled to left, Curtis sacrificed and Hen derson brought in the run with a double over the first bag. Portland made it a deadlock in the fifth. Danzig and Madden both found the ball safely, Marshall bunting them on their way. Cooney responded with a drive to right and both came in, Cooney being pegged out going to second. The Seals broke It up for fair in the sixth. Henderson started with a torrid one, over first. Berry bunted and they were both safe on Marshall's slow toss to sec ond. After Henley had died, on a bunted fly to Marshall, Mohler rapped a double to the centerfleld fence and both runners registered. The score: PORTLAND. A.B. R. H. P.O. A. E.

Challenger Leads Defender "by Half an Hour In Contest for Dunsmuir Cup. y VANCOUVER. B. C. July 1. The Van couver'' yacht Alexandra today won the first of the series , of three, races for the Dunsmuir cup. The challenger won by half an hour over the winner of last year's race, the Spirit, sailed then and now by Ted Geary, of Seattle. The sec ond race will occur Friday, and If a de ciding event is necessary It will be sailed on Saturday. The race today took' three hours to a minute the time being well within the five hours allowed under the rules. Admittedly it was sailed in Alex andra's weather. The Alexandra appeared to show better at every stage of the contest this afternoon. This was a public holiday Confedera tion day in Vanqouver, and no such crowd ever gathered before for a single event In this city. Thirty thousand peo ple crowded the beaches and the excur sion steamers, and the fieet of small craft was the largest on record. The Dominion government cruiser Kestrel was the judges' boat. The breeze came from the northwest and the first leg of the course, to Point Grey buoy, for five miles, was a run al most to windward. It was here that Geary's boat to win was obliged to es tablish a lead. She had an advantage of 13 seconds at the start, and on the first three miles of a lovely run directly toward the Point Grey buoy she Increased her lead to at least 300 yards. By this time the boats were under Point Grey, where sailing is rendered difficult by the pres ence of a long sand spit.' Here it was that expert knowledge of the tides counted. Deane stood in chore, calculating that there was plenty of water for him over the shoal, and took advantage of the tall of the outgoing tide. In the space of half a mile Deane succeeded in reversing the positions of the boats. He was 300 yards behind when he drove his boat Into the tide near shore; ten minutes later he was 300 yards ahead In a direct line for the buoy. After that the Alexandra led. The lead of the challenger became greater until she crossed the line at 1:59:05. The defender crossed at 2:39:40. The official starting times were: Alexan dra, 11:00:17; Spirit, 11:00.04. In the light air work the showing of Alexandra was a big surprise. EYEBRIGHT WINS ONCE MORE Graduate From Plater Class Sur prises Crowd at The Meadows. SEATTLE, Wash., July 1. (Special.) Eyebright, who only recently graduated from the plater class, repeated today in a brilliant win of the Georgetown Handi cap, beating such good horses as Kdwin T. Fryer and Johsmy Lyons. Archibald took the big gelding out In front and tip toed his field the entire mile and one eighth, the first time he had gone the distance. After three favorites had run into sec ond position, two came through for a win, and John H., a well-played second choice, annexed the last. Metlakatala In the first and Colwarwlck in the second were the surprises of the afternoon. Aberdeen S; Butte 2. BUTTE, Mont., July 1.

ARE TIED Peculiar Situation in Coast League Is Due to Large Number of Games in Portland Can celed by Rain. The Pacific Coast League standing furnishes a peculiar combination of figures. A glance at the ranking of the ' clubs shows that San Francisco, which I is bringing up the rear of the proces- sion, has won more games than has Portland, the leading club. The Los Angeles club, which is second, and the Oakland club, which is third in the race, have each won as many games as has the leaders, but have lost sev eral more. This situation is due to the fact that Portland has suffered the postponement of a large number of games scheduled for this city, and dur ing the rainy weeks here the other clubs managed o play nearly all the games scheduled in San Francisco, where at least seven games are sched uled for each week. This is probably the first time in his tory that the tail-end club of a league has been credited 'with more victories than the leading team. Portland, the leading team, has won 38 and lost 33 games, while San Francisco, the tail- end team,' has won 39 and lost 43 games, which shows that the . latter club has played just 11 more games than has Portland. . Los Angeles and Oakland have also played more games than has Portland, and McCredie s lads have' lost fewer contests than any rival club. ( The loss of the last two games to San Francisco has not jeopardized Portland's lead, for the reason that Oakland has defeated Los Angeles on the same days. "Slim" Nelson, who pitched winning ball for Tacomailn the Northwestern League last year, and who has been playing with the Cali fornia outlaw league, because he balked at going to the Southern League, has finally joined the Oakland club, and made his debut yesterday, de feating Los Angeles, McCredie was after Nelson, but got in just too late. The Portland manager Is now concen trating his energies toward -landing a big-leaguer to help out his badly-crippled pitching corps. Manager Mac needs a first-class pitcher badly, and will have one at any cost. Groom Is now his only reliable box artist, and the lanky one gets off bad on occasions. Kinsella has done good work on the road, but is probably betngf worked too much. Garrett is still on the sick list, and has not pitched a game since the team left home several weeks ago. When they return next Tuesday, Manager McCredie hopes to have his twlrlers in good shape, and if he does the Portland team will be In line for a handsome lead by the time it takes to the road again in August- Oscar Jones Is due to take another fling at McCredle's men today, and as Lanky Robert will oppose him, it will probably be a Portland day at the Bay City. Jones has been trimmed bo Ire quently of late that it would be a surprise If he were to come out vic torious. BUYS MOTOR-BOAT "FLIRT' E. E. Deffenbaugh, of Spokane, Will Take Her to Coeur d'Alene Lakes.' E. E. Deffenbaugh, a well-known young society man of Spokane, who has been spending a - few days in Portland, left for his home yesterday, and took with him the crack motor-boat Flirt, which he will use in speed tests on the Coeur d'Alene lakes. Mr. Deffenbaugh had been to California and Fuget Sound in his search for a suit able motor-boat, but not until he had visited Portland and seen the Flirt and other local boats perform, was he satfsfleA to make a purchase. The Flirt was originally buHlt and owned by John E. Wolff, who raced her successfully in the waters of the Will amette for some time. When Wolff built a larger and faster boat he dis posed of the Flirt to a man nrnad, JJi Suit Suit Suit Suit Suit Suit for for for for, for for $11.25 $15.00 $16.25 $18.75 $22.50 $26.25 from whom it was purchased by Deffen baugh. MAE WOOD IS INDICTED Senator Piatt's Persecutor Now Faces Charge of Perjury. NEW TORK, July 1. Mae C. Wood, the Omaha woman who sued United Stales Senator Thomas C. Piatt for divorce, was indicted by the Grand Jury today on a charge of perjury and forgery. Miss Wood is charged with having signed Senator Piatt's name to a docu ment acknowledging her as his wife. The perjury incident is based on Miss Wood's testimony in the divorce action, when she testified that she was married to the Sen ator at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in 1901. Miss Wood also produced a document bearing what purported to be the Sena tor's signature, acknowledging her as his wife. The Senator denied that he had ever signed it, and produced a witness who testified that she had obtained the Senator's signature to a blank sheet of paper, which she gave to Miss Wpod. The Senator paid J10.000 for the return of letters he wrote to Miss Wood. Justice O'Gorman dismissed Miss Wood's suit and ordered her arrest on the charge of perjury. "Open-Shop" Bridge Dynamited. BUFFALO, N. July 1. Two heavy charges of dynamite exploded by a time fuse under the Lehigh Viaduct, at Selkirk and Perry streets, early today blew two heavy iron girders out of place, twisted the rails above and shattered the ties for many feet. The viaduct was but recently completed by McClintock & Marshall, a firm which maintains the open shop principle and who have had several bridges wrecked by dynamite during the past year. One man was arrested on suspicion. Oxford Degrees for Bishops. OXFORD, England. July 1.

SHOE SATISFACTION GUARANTEED WITH SELZ ROYAL BLUE SHOE T'S easy and customary to guarantee shoes to be good; nobody can tell whether they 're good or not until, you pay for them and wear them.
