SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 20. (Spe
cial.) Fischer. Oakland's latest busher,
an electrician by trade, but a ball
player by choice, made his debut at
Recreation Park today, and for hia
pains waa rewarded with a ( to 3 de
feat. The Portland boya had their eye on
the ball all the way from Ote Johnson,
who duplicated Truck Egan's left field
home run hit. through Casey and his
three-bagger and down to the doubles
and singles, they slammed out the
runs.
After the Johnson homer In the first,
the Commuters came back with a rush
In the same Inning:. Anderson, who
had singled and been sacrificed, was
sent home by Heltmuller's two-bagger,
the latter scoring on an out by Egan
and Cook's right-field hit. Portland
tied the score In the second and Casey,
with hla three-bagger that opened the
third, gave the northerners a lead they
held.
In the fifth Xhef annexed two more.
Casey put a two-bagger to right and
Bassey was hit. A passed ball and
1 Longe's wild throw scored Pearl
and Bassey. who had been advanced by
a single and a sacrifice, came home on
Battery's out to the Infield.
Three hits In the ninth, one of them
Garrett's two-bagger, added the last
Portland run of the day.
The Oaks were near the scoring
point several times after the first, but
the only time they succeeded was In
the sixth, when singles by Heitmuller,
Lewis and La Longe put the big Ger
man around the bags.

Nothing Pleasanter Than Mak
ing at Least One Speech
Day, He Says. .
NO CAR PLATFORM ORATOR
Portly Candidate Bars Whirlwind
Tour, Otherwise He Is at Na
tional Committee's Com
mand Until Election. i
HOT SPRINGS. Va., Aug. 20. "After
the first week of any speaking campaign
has been gone through with, and one
finds himself, as it were, talking without
difficulty on all of the various subjects of
discussion, I don't think there is any
thing more enjoyable than making at
least one speech a day.
Thte utterance by Mr. Taft today pre
sents his attitude toward campaigning.
He added that in the 1904 campaign he
made speeches during a six weeks tour of
New York and New England, and en
joyed every minute of it."
When asked if it were not a possibility
that a change might be decided upon In
the announcement that he would not
leave Cincinnati during the campaign, Mr,
Taft replied:
"Of course, there Is nothing to prevent
a change of these plans."
Any change of plans affecting the can
dldate, however. It was stated, was a
matter entirely with the National com
mltAe. That Mr. Taft to entirely willing
to accommodate himself to anything but
a whirlwind campaign, as he put It, was
made plain.
"There Is no harder work," he added,
"than making hurried speechea from
the rear end of a train, and I doubt If
such work is effective."
Hot Sprtnga Is In readiness for the
Republican rally tomorrow. Colonel S,
Brown Allen, of Staunton, made a final
ipepection of the ball park, as chair
man of the arrangements committee, at
the close of the day, and placed hia
approval on what had been done. Col
onel Allen's estimate of the crowd to
come Is 7000.
Judge D. D. Woodman See, Judge Of
the Common Pleas Court at Cincinnati,
president in 1896 of the National
League of Republican Clubs, and a
cousin of an old friend of Mr. Taft, was
an early arrival today, and gave out an
interview regarding the decision of the
Ohio State Committee not to invite Sen
ator Foraker to speak at the opening
of the National campaign at Youngs
town, September S, in which he said:
"Aside from, the fact that we have
had many campaign openings in Ohio
without our senior Senator taking
part, it can at once be understood that
a very Important question of party
policy arose this year. Everyone can
appreciate that It was an embarrassing
situation. Senator Foraker in his
Chamber of Commerce speech delivered
in Cincinnati only a short time ago,
made a severe, attack upon the policies
of President Roosevelt-
"How could the party, which intends
to wage the fight standing squarely
oh - these policies as declared In Its
platform, consistently invite him to
take the most conspicuous part In the
campaign? It was practically impos
sible, and most of Senator Foraker's
friends see it that way.
"I will yield to no one in my admira
tion for Senator Foraker. The splen
did services that he has heretofore
rendered in behalf of the Republican
party cannot and must not be forgotten
and no one shall regret more than my
self if he finds it Impossible to serve
the party during this Important cam
paign." Judge Taft's engagements for Sat
urday include conferences with Postmaster-General
Meyer, Chief Forester
Gifford Pinchot, Theodore P. Shonts,
president of the Metropolitan Securi
ties Company of New York, and G. W.
Painter, an American missionary to
China.
BIG HORSES OFFERED TAFT
Story That He Wants New Steed Is
Denied in Vain.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. General
Clarence R. Edwards, Chief of the Bu
reau of Insular Affairs, Is daily in re
celDt of letters from horseowners all
over this country offering desirable
mounts suitable for Judge William H.
Taft, the Republican candidate for th.e
Presidency. These letters have resulted
from a story that has gone the rounds
of the press to the effect that General
Edwards has been commissioned to pur
chase a steed for the Republican candi
date, the result of which is that he has
ever since been occupied In explain
ing that he Is not in the market for a
horse.
The other day he received an adver
tisement of an enormously large and
strong steed. 21 hands high and weigh
ing 2700 pounds, which had been used
for exhibition purposes, but which- was
declared to be admirably adapted for rid
ing by a man weighing 300 pounds. Gen
eral Edwards has been surprised by the
immense number of horses of unusual
size that are owned by horse dealers and
which have been offered to him for the
use of Mr. Taft. What he regards as a
curious phase of the horse market, ao
far as it concerns large steeds, is tne
fact that In spite of .denials that he Is
contemplating the purchase of a mount
for Mr. Taft, there is a constant in
crease in the number of animals offered.
The story that he wants to buy an
enormously large horse for the use of
the candidate seems to be traveling far
beyond the power of any denial to over
take it
TAFT LAUDS SHERMAN SPEECH

comment on the acceptance speech of
Mr. Sherman, xne vice-x-reameniiai can
didate, and expression of, gratification
over Secretary Root's tribute to Mr.
Sherman was made today by Mr. Taft:
"I have" read with great Interest and
pleasure Mr. Sherman's forcible state
ment on the issues of the campaign and
his determination that the overshadowing
issue of the coming election Is whether
Mr. Roosevelt's administration shall be
Indorsed or not.
"I read also with peculiar gratification
the wonderful testimonial to Mr. Sher
man's character and ability which Elihu
Root, as a neighbor and intimate friend,
poured from his heart to the Vice-Presidential
candidate."

Shortly before 6 o'clock tonight the
statement was made by James T. Will

Mr. Hitchcock and Mr. Sherman had re

time before and that they had both re
tired. Mr. Williams said further that Mr.
Hitchcock had no statement to make In
regard to the Hughes matter or the busi

said, however, that the return trip on

A number of New York leaders were
called together at Oyster Bay today by
a luncheon party given by President

WOMEN FACE BAD CHARGES
(Continued From First Page.)
ner in an Interview credited to her by a
nnmlni newsoaDer. acknowledges her
ownership of the art goods which have
been seized by customs officials In Chi
cago, because of having been brought
into this country by Mrs. Emily R. C.
Chadbourne under an alleged false dec
laration In which the goods were declared
as "household effects'" but declares she
did not know of Mrs. Chadbourne's in
tention to bring them to this country.
The statement attributed to Mrs. uara-
ner Is in part as follows:
"The customs department has always
persecuted me and I have paid thousands
of dollars of duty upon objects of art as
a result of their impositions. The goods
in Chicago belong to me. I had lent
them to Mrs. Chadbourne for her home
In Europe. I doubt If the articles would
total $60,000 in value and I think Mrs.
Chadbourne had a perfect right to bring
them Into this country as 'household
goods.'
"I don't know whether the $70,000 In
fines and penalties was paid by me or
not, as I have a man who looks after
such things. I have not paid $80,000 to
keep the art objects from being sold at
auction. If the duty is paid In full and
a still bigger price is paid without protest
I don't see why the customs people
should take the articles too."

Johnson for a third time was gratifying
news to the Democratic candidate, who at
once forwarded a telegram of congratula
tion. "It is a great compliment to Governor
Johnson to be nominated for a. third
term by the unanimous action of the con
vention," said Mr. Bryan, "and I have
no doubt that his candidacy will greatly
strengthen the National ticket In that
state."

TERMS OF $6 CASH AND $6 A MONTH FAST DISPOSING OF SEV-ENTY-FIVE
PIANOS THAT WEREN'T SOLD DURING JULY,
ON ACCOUNT OF THE "HOT WEATHER."
Savings of From $125.00 to $200.00 During This "Must-Have-the-Room
Sale The Greatest Piano Event Portland
Has Known in Years.
This week, so far, has been a "hum
mer" at Eilers Piano House, and no
wonder, when you consider that new
strlctlv high-grade pianos 75 of them
are being disposed of at practically
cost orice but even cost with 8 per
cent simple interest on deferred pay
ments is preferable to crowded ware
rooms and additional insurance on
same. .
We simplv must dispose of the re
mainder of the 75 pianos and we will.
Several carloads of pianos are now on
the road which will have to be han
dled as soon as-they arrive, and as
we haven't the room for them now,
well have to make room for them,
and that within the next four or five
days.
The fact that these pianos are on
sale does not Indicate that they are
not desirable Instruments to have.
They are composed of some of the
world's very best makes, and first
class in every respect. "They must be

posed of in one day and when they
were gone we were still so crowded
that it was deemed advisabe to get at
leaxt cost out of 75 more nence, these
exceptional terms and bargains.
Perhaps vou were thinking of get
ting a piano a little later say six
months or a year or even two or three
vears from now but surely an oppor
tunity of this kind should pot be
passed by wit.iout your serious con
sideration. Kew pocketbotks are too
small to einre in a month, and the
saving of fim $125 to $200 should be
an incentive to any Intending piano
purchaser. , . , .
As an example of the wonderful bar
gains offered here while the i; last,
sav. for instance, you were thinking
of" getting about a $265 piano $13S
takes It home now. The regular $3-'o
styles go for only $185, and our regu
lar fined $400 pianos are reduced to
$2-13 and similar reductions accord
ing 'to the regular price of the piano.
See our large announcement on page
5 for furthtr Information.
But you will have to get here soon,
as the pianos which have already been
sold this week are advertising this
sale Immensely. Don t be afraid of
the small price the quality remains
the same this we absolutely guaran
tee or we do not want the sale. Come
this morning. If possible for best
choice and you'll be convinced that
we haven't exaggerated these great
values or made a misrepresenting
statement in this announcement.
