A garrison finish on the part of the vsT-trylnpr Seals, combined with Bobby Groom's erratic twirling-, worked against tho home team yesterday, and Oscar Jones, the hitherto unlucky one, walked off with a large-alied horseshoe presenta tion by the score of f to 1 at the Vaughn street stadium. It all happened before the galaxy of shlrtwsists. open-work hosiery and para sols present too. and therefore must have been all the more galling to the elongated individual who has visions of wearing a Cleveland uniform next season. Lanky itobert is to be blamed more or less for the fiasco of the finish, yet the mistakes cf little Phil Cooney must not be over looked, a To lose that game after Jack Ryan had iaved It once by the prettiest heave ever seen at the Vatighan-street enclosure was a shame, and the grand assemblage of "merry widows" and those that were not merry, was exceedingly disappointed at the sad behavior of the home boys. Then again Tom Madden and Pearl Casey worked off a time-worn double steal on the Seals which netted one ace ni this appeared large enough at the time to bring a' victory to otir side. Trouble Starts In Seventh. Claude Berry was the Seal to lead the slaughter, and. while bis effort, under ordinary circumstances, would only have gained him an opportunity to think It over on- the bench. Cooney erred serious ly and Claude was a base-runner In stead of a bench-warmer. Mr. Curtis, who delights in banging the ball around the Portland lot. 'While he cannot get much more than a foul on the other grounds of the league, pasted a single to center. Oscar Jones hit past Groom, who was unable to stop the low-bounding sphere. Phil Cooney, who took the chance, succeeded- In messing the ball over the green sward long enough to permit all hands to be sate. ' The official scorer seems to have It in for Klnsella. for he registered a hit to Oscar on the tap. and the Sal twlrler now has the lead for that bonnet. With the sacks populated Kid Mohler singled to left, scaring Berry. Groom settled down temporarily. Hildebrand's foul was tucked away by Johnson, and Zelder struck out. Then Bobby lost his range flnder and forced Curtis over with a pass to Melchior. Help Seals Collect Runs. This display of erratic playing was not a sample compared with the occurrences In the ninth. Oscar Jones beat out a hit, and when Mohler hit to Danzig, Jones was morgued at second, but Cooney heaved wildly, in an attempt to complete a double, and the kid took second. Mad den had a half-passed ball and Mohler ambled to third. Hlldebrand worried Groom Into Issuing a pass, end then Bobby Increased the Seals' score by . pawing Zeider's bunt long enough for Roily to reach first and Mohler to score. Melchior laced one for two bags, scoring Hildy. Williams followed this with a single which scored Zeider and Melchior. A fast double play from Danzig to Cooney to Danzig closed the Seals out, but they had the game by a good-margin. Portland's lone run cam by virtue of good baserunnlng and the use of equally bad judgment on the part of the Seal lnnelders. With one in cold-storage, Tom Madden doubled to the right garden wall. Groom's long fly to Beck was good enough for Tom to negotiate third. Casey ambled, and on the pitch, started for second. Madden took a lead off third and while the Seals were running Casey up and down the base lines. Tom raced home. He scored because Mohler's throw to Berry was too low. In the ninth Madden and Danzig had been disposed of when McCredle sent Jack Graney in to bat for Groom. Graney laced the first, ball pitched to deep light for three bases, but Kid Mohler declared, and made it go with Ferine, that tbe Portlander had not touched first base. This decision wound up affairs and the hike to the cars began. Two Games on Sunday. v Manager McCredie and Captain Mohler have arranged to play .two games Sun dsy afternoon. The first game will be called at 5 o'clock, and the second ten minutes after the conclusion of the first. Garrett will probably decorate the slab for Portland today, although McCredie may retain the little fellow to send htm agatinst Sutor Sunday, while "Slivers" Henley will twirl for the Seals.

VICTORY NOT - EASY ONE Grand Rapids Boy Has Worse ol Argument in First and Second Cantos Retains Middle weight Championship. SAN FRANCISCO. July 31. Stanley Ketchel. of Grand Rapids, made short HUGO KELLY. work of Hugo Kelly, of Chicago, tonight at the Coliseum In their scheduled 20 round contest for the world's middle weight championship. He knocked out his man after but 26 seconds of fight ing, in the third round, a left shift flush to the jaw placing Kelly hora du com bat. Although Ketchel won early the victory was not an easy one. In fact It looked a bit blue for the champion as he strode to his seat after the termina tion of the second round. In two fast rounds Kelly out-fought his man from the tap of the gong.

He Immediately laced out with his left which he placed twice In quick succession to the Chicago man's jaw. Before the semi-dazed Italian had a chance to catch himself, Ketchel shift ed his left to the Jaw and Kelly was toppled over as If struck by a sledge hammer. There was nothing to be done but count 10. and Ketchel had retained the middle weight championship honors. Kelly Weighs Lighter. In the presence of Jack Welsh, the ref eree, the stakeholder and hundreds of spectators, Ketchell and Kelly weighed In at 6 o'clock tonight. The scales were set at 158 pounds, and these figures were not exceeded by either fighter. It was understood, however, that Kelly Is the lighter of the two by at least three pounds. The men after partaking of a light dinner were driven to the Coliseum, Immediately donned their fighting clothes and lolled about In the dressing rooms until summoned for action. Seats at Premium. Every seat was sold long; before the doors to the Coliseum were opened, and additional tiers of benches were hastily constructed. The receipts will approxi mate 320.000. Interest in tonight's battle was intense, and traffic In the vicinity of Golden Gate Park, where the pavilion Is located, was blocked by crowds of men discussing the chances of the two pugs and fighting for admission. In Introducing the men the referee stat ed that they had agreed to fight with one arm free and to protect themselves In the clinches. Ketchel Strong Favorite. ' Ketchel entered the ring favorite at odds of 10 to 4, and even money was offered that he would win Inside of IS rounds. There was not much Kelly money In evi dence. The preliminary was a ten-round affair between George Peterson, ex-amateur welter-weight champion, and "Young" Blue Dan, the recognized welter-weight champion of the Navy. It was won by Young Blue Dan In the third on a de cision, the police stopping the bout. FIGHT BY BOUNDS. Rotmd 1. Ketchell whistled and danced ts the , ID ROUND center.
