LONDON, July 22. Comparative gloom
pervaded the American camp tonight. The
athletes from over the seas had strongly
cherished hopes of repeating yesterday's
grand record-making clean sweeps in
the track events, but a dark horse in the
person of the South African youth. R. E.
Walker, upset the calculations. Walker
broke the tape in what is considered the
most Important event in the Olympic
games, the 100-meters dash, a short two
feet in front of J. A. Rector, the Univer
sity of Virginia crack, thereby putting an
end to the astonishing succession of
American triumphs which had begun to
sadden the Britons.
Shoulder and shoulder. Walker, Rector
and the Canadian star, Kerr, ran down
the straight course, with Cartmell, the
Pennsylvania snrlnter. close behind. At
tho halfway mark Walker forged slightly
ahead, but at the tape less than a yard
separated the first three men, with the
Canadian only a few inches behind the
Virginian in third place.
Want Everything In Sight.
The Americans dirt remarkably well at
the Stadium today but success h3d elated
them to the point where they were sat
isfied with nothing less than everything
In sight. A world's record by C. J
Bacon, of the Irish-American A. C. in
the 400-meter hurdles, w hich he Won in
6& seconds; an Olympic record of 24 feet
6S4 inches by F. C Irons, of the Chicago
A. A., in the running broad Jump; and
the victory of G. S. Dole, of Yale, in the
featherweight wrestling, out of seven
finals, should be a satisfactory day's per
formance. Great Britain, as usual, came
second among the countries, with S. V.
Bacon winning the middleweight wrest
ling, and the Kngnsh team aeieating tne

Ovation to Walker.
The African colonial flag was raise
to the masthead to signalize Walker
great sprint and Finland, whose repre
sentative, Saarela. conquered all comers
in the Graeco-Roman wrestling bouts,
having no flag, brought forth the stand
ard hearing the word "Finland," which
the Finns carried in the opening parade,
and it was elevated on the flagpole.
Walker received an ovation pen onl
once, in a lifetime on an athletic field"
when 40.000 people rose with a grer
cheer and filled the air with hats, while
the boy. this morning unknown, but
whose name fills London tonight, was
lifted on the shoulders of enthusiastic
friends. The only demonstration ap
proaching this during the meeting was
the tumult after Shepherd's sensational
win in the 8O0 meters yesterday, but that
was feeble by comparison, because Wal
ker is a Britisher, and the English pub
lic is not partial toward American suc
cesses. Made Vppopular ty Protests.
This is due partly to the fact that it is
a bitter pll( to the keenest-snorting nation
on earth to take second place in any con
test and it Is also true that the Americans
incurred some unpopularity by their pro
tests, which the London newspapers and
the Olympic officials Interpret as a re
flection upon the honesty of the English
Judges, and resented accordingly.
The American contingent had feared
that Kerr, the Canadian, would rob it of
the 100 meters, but had not considered
Walker dangerous. No one accepted the
National misfortune more gracefully than
Rector. When spoken to regarding
Walker's victory, the Virginian said:
"Walker is a faster runner than I, and
that is all there is to say."
London Mad for Athletics.
The Olympic games are developing Into
a huge success. While the meeting
started discouraglngly, with the weather
and other conditions strongly against it.
london Is fast becoming athletic mad.
People everywhere talk of nothing but
the Olympian runners and Jumpers at."
the women seem as much interested as
the men. Great crowds gather aroun
the ticket offices to secure the best seal
for the final days and a big attendant
is certain from this on.
It would be hard to imagine a finer
spectacle than the Stadium presented
today. From athletic, social and spec
tacular standpoints it quite equaled th
expectations of the promoters. Que-
Alexandra and other members of t
royal family were present and congi
ulated the African runner on his va
lor. The stands contained 40.vt per
sons, of whom at least one-half were
women, whose multi-colored costumes
presented a fascinating picture.
Americans Cheer Walker.
The American section was truly
American, with waving flags and noise
making Instruments. There was or
ganized cheering by a large band of
collegians under trie leadership of a
frantic youth, brandishing a huge club
and shouting "Rah. rah. rah. Bacon,"
which was heartily taken up by the
others when the first American victory
of the day was proclaimed. This
caught the fancy of the crowd im
mensely, as did the Americans cheer
ing for Walker, who, although he de
feated their favorite, was as cordially
greeted as was their own countryman.
The picture In the arena was worthy
of applause. When the Queen entered
the royal box. the runners were striv-,
Ing with every muscle set in the 4 30
meters race around the track, divers
were throwing double somersaults
from the tower and brawny wrestlers
were struggling in the Graeco-Roman
contests, on the platform at either
end of the oval a band of Danish
women gymnasts, who we're the most
attractive novelty of the meeting, ar
rayed in white uniforms and yellow
stockings, were engaged in a graceful
exercise. The Jumping events were
conducted on the green turf in the
center of the stadium and, altogether,
today's meeting furnished a series of
thrilling pictures and quite as much
excitement and close finishes as yester
day. Run Away From Englishmen.
In addition to Walker's sprint, the 400
meter hurdle and the semi-final heats of
the 400 and 200 meters flat races were
memorable events. The Americans had
the 'hurdles to themselves. C. J. Bacon,
the Irish-American A. C, and Harry L.
Hillman, New York A. C, between whom
there was as warm a rivalry as between
the men of different nationalities, ran
clear away from their English rivals.

finals of the 400 meters with the Eng
lish champion, Halswelle. as their only
opponent for the final. Halswelle's feat
in lowering the Olympic record was
easily one of the most brilliant per
formances of the day. He covered the
distance in 48 2-5 seconds, breaking
Harry Hiilman's record of 49 1-5 sec
onds, made at St. Louis in 1904. Tay
lor's time was 49 4-5 seconds. Hals

public is backing the Canadian to win.
All the heats in this event resulted
in close finishes. W. F. Hamilton, Chi
cago A. A., gave Kerr so close a race
that a majority of the spectators
thought that he had won until they
heardthe official announcement. Cloug
henbeat George, who was England's
chief hope. while Hawkins, in a heat in
which no Americans were entered, shut
out Roche, another British favorite.
Diver's Xarrow Escape.
A sensation occurred during the high
diving. Cane, England's representative,
struck the water heavily and failed to
come to the surface. A bystander plunged
into the tank and brought Cane ashore.
The Englishman, however, suffered no
more serious injury than a temporary loss
of wind. The Olympic managers tendered
their official thanks to the rescuer, whose
name is Johaansen, and who is the holder
of King Edward's cup for life-saving.
Soon after this the German, Nicolia.
finished a double somersault from the
high tower by striking the water at full
length like a sandbag. An American, N.
C. Grote. of the Missouri A. C, promptly
dived after him. but the German, who
came up almost Immediately, rejected the
offer of rescue and swam ashore unaided.

BY W. J. PETRAIN.
Portland dropped the second game of
the series to Oakland yesterday simply
because an attenuated personage known
as Nelson was exceedingly stingy with
his a lowance of hits, while our Jesse
Garrett was anythng but a puzzle to the
Athenian outfit after the fifth inning. The
Oaks scored four runs, while the best our
boys could do was to prevent a shutout,
one lone tally coming our way in the
third canto.
For five innings Garrett held the visitors
F"" bu.t not hlUes. for they tapped
the little fellow for t bingle in nearly
every inning; in fact the fourth was the
only session in which they went down
in order. It was a sensational catch of
a hard drive from Hogan s bat by Bassev
that prevented the regstering of at least
one hit in that inning.
However, Garrett managed to extricate
himself from difficulty until the sixth
when "Woodenshoes" Heltmuller led off
with a safe bingle. Eagan's effort was a
fly to MeCredle. "Happy Bill" Hogan
who had been robbed twice earlier in the
game, succeeded in placing one in safe
territory and Heltmuller ambled to third.
"Nutmeg" Miller boosted ' one past
Raftery for three sacks and "Heiney"
and 'Happy- scored. Altman's grounder
to Johnson caused Miller to be retired
at the plate, and "Dutch" was caught
a moment later attempting to purloin the
middle sack.
Rally Falls to Come.
Garrett passed the seventh without mis
hap and the Jans retained hopes of the
home guard starting a batting rally which
would- place Portland again in the lead
All such visions were given a rude shock
in the eighth, for Van's crew clamped
a padlock on the game by bagging an
other brace of runs by clean, if not lucky
hitting. Heltmffller was again the first
individual to face Garrett, but on this
occasion he was tossed out at flrst by
the Swede. Charles Eugene Eagan, other
wise known as Truck, finally succeded in
connecting for a safety. Incidentally it
was a two-ply bingle. and Eagan was
tickled almost to death at not having
to suffer a material drop in his batting
average.
"Happy Bill" dropped a Texas leager
back of flrst base wheh Manager Mac
was unable to reach, and as the ball
bounded away from the fielder, Hogan
ran to third, while Eagan tapped the
platter. "Joyous William" planted his
feet firmly In the canvas covering of the
third sack, but for 'some unaccountable
reason Phil Cooney, who was. playing
the mid station in the absence of Casey,
heaved the relayed ball some yards above
Jack Ryan, and the smiling one hiked for
the register. This brought Oakland's
total to .four runs.
"Slim" Nelson was the direct cause of
Portland's run In the third, for he tickled
Cooney in the slats, and the little fellow
scored when Raftery drove out his triple
after Ryan had sacrificed.
In spite of the defeat the game was a
most interesting battle. Nelson demon
strated that the many psalms sung of
his ability were not without some founda
tion, for the lengthy chap pitched a gilt
edged game. On the other hand, Garrett
was hit frequently, but until the sixth
he managd'to keep the blngles scattered
widely enough to prevent scores. In the
first inning he wormed out of a hole
simply because Tom Raftery possessed a
good wing, and "Pop" Van Haltren did
a funny stunt in running- the bases.
Van's Lead Costs Run.
Van had led oft with a single, and
Cook was passed to flrst on balls. Heit
muller sacrificed, advancing both run
ners. EAgan laced a drive to center
which Raftery glommed, and tossed to
Whalen in time to nab Van Haltren. Van
had taken a lead off third on the hit,
and had to run "back to the base as the
catch was made. He had but little chance
of making the plate, and when Perrine
ruled him out he was inclined to dispute
the decision.
Pearl Casey was out of the game on
account of a troublesome tooth which
caused a swelling of the facial muscles
to such an extent that the ltttie second
baseman's left eye was closed. Cooney
was delegated to fill Casey's shoes and
did fairly well in spite of his lameness.
Wright may be in shape to pitch for
Oakland today, although' It Is more than
likely that Van Haltren will use Hardy
or Dellar. MeCredle will work either
Graney or Kinsella. Bobby Groom was
In uniform yesterday and he will take
hs turn on the mound in a few days.

E. J. DODGE SAID TO HAVE BRO
KEN CONTRACT.
Shippers Ask $4198 Because Vessels
Failed to Carry to Los Angeles
Specified Cargoes.
Because the steamers Northland,
South Bay and St. Helens did not
transport between 300 and S00 tons
of lumber monthly, last Winter for the
Multnomah Lumber & Box Company,
the firm has brought suit In the Cir
cuit Court against E. J. Dodge to re
cover $4198.53. It is alleged that- a
contract was entered Into September
27, for the transportation of this
amount of lumber and box shooks
from Portland to San Francisco and
San Pedro, during November, Decem
ber, January and February.
The lumber company says It had a
contract with the Los Angeles Traffic
Bureau to ship 25,000 orange boxes,
another for 70.650 boxes, and still an
other for 17,250 car strips. The first
order was cancelled when delivery
could not be made, and in the last two
instances the Los Angeles firm' bought
the boxes and strips in the open mar
ket and charged the difference to the
Multnomah company. This company
also alleges damages because it was
compelled to transport a portion of
its lumber on other vessels.
REVERSES MUNICIPAL COURT
Bronaugh Decides Jail Sentence for
Simple Assault Invalid.
That Judge Van Zante exceeded his
authority when he sentenced W. M. Wal
ley to serve six months in the County
Jail for assault and battery, was the de
cision of Judge Bronaugh. in the Circuit
Court yesterday morning. He decided
that Walley was entitled to a writ of
habeas corpus, and he was accordingly
released. McCants Stewart appeared for
Walley. while Deputy District Attorney
Hennessy represented the state.
Judge Bronaugh's decision yesterday
was based upon section 1772, of the ses
sion laws passed by the Legislature in
1905. This section provides that a jus
tice of the peace may not do more than
impose a fine of from $6 to 350 for simple
assault. In cases where the charge is
filed In the Circuit Court, however, the
same section provides that a sentence of
from three months to one year in the
County Jail may be imposed, and a fine
of from 350 to $500.
Clerk John T. Milner, of the Municipal
Court, had not filed in the Circuit Court
a transcript of Judgment, as provided in
all cases where a prisoner is sentenced
to the County Jail. Judge Bronaugh or
dered, therefore, that Walley should not be
released until this transcript had been
made out and filed.
Files Objection to Bid.
Dan McAllen, through his attorneys,
filed objections in the County Court
yesterday to the bid of J. L. Bowman
for the partnership estate of McAllen
& McDonnell. Mr. McAllen says that
thia bid involves a heavy sacrifice on
the part of the firm, and that for this
reason it should not be accepted. He
says it will be Impossible to cut down
the inventory of the stock to the
amount named without seriously, im
pairing the assets. It is also contended
that the bid is not in the proper legal
form. It is aid to have been tele
graphed to Portland by Mr. Bowman,
who is in the East. The amount of the
