Pitcher Groom took his place in the
box yesterday and turned the trick
against the Oakland players with a 5 to 4
victory. It was a pretty piece of pitch
ing on Groom's part and in only one in
ning., the seventh, could Oakland do any
thing against him. For the first four in
nings only three Californlans batted in
each inning and not a hit was made oft
' Groom until the seventh. It began to look
like the Californlans would be shut .out
without a hit when they got together In
the seventh and gave the fans a scare,
scoring three runs.
Nelson, for Oakland, fared worse, and
was touched up freely In the second,
fourth, fifth and sixth. Danzig and Bas
sey scored In the second on Anderson's
muff of Danilg's grounder, Bassey's
elngle. Cooney's fly to the outfield and
Madden's pretty liner to right. Groom
followed with a single, which went for
nothing, as Casey grounded out, retiring
the side.
Portland Takes Big Lead.
Portland added another In the fourth,
when Raftery walked. Bassey sacrificed
and Lewis dropped Cooney's long fly. In
the fifth, after Ryan had gotten life by
forcing Casey, he stole second and third
and scored on Danilg's grounder to Slat
tery. on which the runner was safe by a
close decision. This gave Portland four
runs to the good, but they added another
in the sixth, for safety, and as it turned
out. this proved to be the winning run.
Eagan and Lewis let Cooney's fly drop
between them, on which the Portlander
got two bases. Madden and Lewis fol
lowed with singles, driving In one run.
In the seventh' when Groom -seemed-to
have the Commuters well In hand
they started a batting rally and drove
in four runs. Heltmuller opened the
Inning by' flying out. Eagan set the
Portland Infield on its bead trying to
field his bunt, and was safe at first.
Then Slattery- was given a pass and
La Longe. Houston. Lewis and Nelson
each singled, scoring three run's. Dan
zig made a low throw to the plate on
Cooke's bunt, and Lewis came In with
the fourth run. There were still two
men on bases and only one out, and
it began to look as though the score
would be tied, when Anderson forced
Nelson at the plate and Heltmuller
forced Anderson at second. This ended
the scoring for both sides, although
Oakland succeeded in getting a man
on third In the eighth.
Poor Batters Fatten Averages.
A peculiarity of the game was that
most of the hitting was done by the
men down low in the batting list.
Groom and Madden getting five of
Portland's nine hits.

Greatest Two-Vear-Olds In America
Entered for Futurity.
NEW YORK, Aug. 28. Over the
beautiful course of the Coney Island
Jockey Club at Sheepshead Bay, nine
high-bred 2-year-olds, the pick of the
racing etables of the country, will
struggle tomorrow for supremacy In
the classic Futurity. For speed and
stamina the field has proved its worth
In previous days, and it is not impossi
ble that the victor may turn out to be
an animal equal in class to Domino,
Colin or Artful, the winners of the
stake in bygone years.
Harry Payne Whitney lead! the nom
inators with three entries, while James
R. Keen and Mr. Madden have each
two. II. B. Duryea and August Belmont
will be the only other horsemen to send
their animals to the barrier in quest
of the rich purse and the honor of
winning the classic event.
Horsemen generally ehake their
heads when they are asked to pick the
winner, On past performances they
choose either Keene or Madden to take
the major portion of the stake, but as
to which particular animal the honor
will fall they are in doubt. Mr. Keene
has sent out Helrfiet and Masket. and
readily admits he has a great chance
with this pair. Masket is a filly with
a marvelous burst of speed and is cred
ited with being game to the core.
Mr. Madden's Sir Martin and Fayette
have several times taken Into camp the
best of the 2-year-olds in training.
only, however, to be beaten decisively
by Mr. Keene's Helmet at Saratoga.
Mr. Madden says his colts both are In
fine fettle and will give good account
of themselves.
Mr. Whitney will depend upon Per

winner. Persimmon, as his chief color
bearer, but also will start Hillside and

FOR EIGHT CLUBS
Hopes League May Be Reor

Not This.
FANS ALSO WANT CHANGE
Business and Professional Men Join
. In Request for Admission of .
Seattle, Tacoma ' and
' Spokane ' Teams.
That a Pacific Coast baseball league
including four of the big cities of the
North and four of the big cities of the
South will be the result of the present
Portland agitation is the prediction of
Judge W. W. McCredie, vice-president
of the Pacific Coast Baseball League,
and president of the Portland club.
Such a termination of the present
agitation may be accomplished this
year, though Judge - McCredie doubts
that It will be effected before another
year. He is thoroughly in favor of
such a plan.
"It would be the best solution I can
think of," he said last night. "In that
way the North would contend against
the South, which would cause any
amount of interest. It would at the
same time bring out all the rivalry
there is between the cities of the
North. In addition to that it would
keep the Pacific Coast League in class
A '
Big Cities Are Xeeded.
"With the population of the North
ern States alone, I doubt if that class
could be maintained, and with the pop
ulation of the South alone I doubt if
that class could be maintained. With
the two sections combined in one
league there would be a big population
and It would give plenty of baseball
in each section. '
"I heartily favor including the Wash
ington cities in the Pacific Coast
League. Spokane especially is a hust
ling place and should be included. It
is naturally tributary to Portland and
it and other Washington cities would
rather be Included in a league with
Portland" than with Seattle.
"If four of the best cities in the
Northwest and four in the South were
to comprise the Pacific Coast League
it would be a great thing from a base
ball standpoint."-
Views of Portland Fans.
Business and professional men who are
Interested in baseball, as well as many
other fans, have expressed themselves as
favorable to a baseball league that will
include cities of the Pacific Northwest, as
well as California cities. '
. The recent decision to add two Cali
fornia cities to the league, they contend,
will only tend to create continuous base
ball In the south and will fail to change
conditions materially, so far as Portland
Is concerned. A majority of those inter
viewed on the subject expressed them
selves as favoring the establishment of a
Pacific Northwest League, which would
Include the various cities of the Pacific
Northwest, where natural rivalry exists.
Opinion of Judge Williams.
There are others who join with Judge
McCredie In advocating a league in which
both cities of the north and south shall
strive for supremacy. There is no antag
onism or opposition to the recent action
of the managers of the Pacific Coast Base
ball League In admitting two other cities.
but there is a general Impression that the
Interests of Portland and the Northwest
are being overlooked In behalf of Cali
fornia. Judge George H. Williams, an
enthusiastic follower of the game, said:
"In my opinion It would be better, In
case of any addition or change in the
league, to include our neighbors rather
than others who are so distantly remote
that little rivalry can ever be established
between the- various teams. There is nat
ural rivalry between the cities of the
Northwest, not only In sports, but in a
business and general way, and it might
be better to have Portland in a league
where the natural rivalry should tend to
make better ball."
A. H. Deverg, another devotee, ex
pressed similar sentiments. Personally he
would prefer to see Seattle and Portland
as rivals in baseball, as well as in other
lines.
Wants to See Good Ball.
'I want to see just as good ball as we
have been having, and even better. If
possible," he said, "but I would also like
to see the various cities of the Northwest
compete with each other. Seattle, at
least, should compete with Portland, and
in case of the establishment of a North
west League, Spokane, Tacoma and other
cities should be included."
Dr. Emmett Drake Is inclined to believe
that the public Is losing interest in base
ball simply because It has reached such
a point of professionalism that there
little local rivalry between the public
Which sees the game and none between
the players. However, he believes that a
league including all the big cities on the
Coast would answer the purpose.
If the league Included all the big cities
of Oregon. Washington and California,
he said, "a great deal more of interest
might be aroused, and then It could not be
said that one state was getting the best
of it to the detriment of another.
'However. If there are to be two
leagues. I think better results could be ac
complished if the cities of Oregon and
Washington played against each other.
while the cities of the south had a league
of their own. If they took in Sacramento
and another California town they should
certainly nave (ajten in some cities up
mis way."

ALEXANDER BADLY DEFEATED
Strange Reversal ot Form Gives
Wright Easy Victory.
NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 28. After com
ing through to the finals without missing
a single set, and administering a most
unexpected! defeat to the one-time cham
pion, William J. Clothier, in the semi
finals, Fred B. Alexander, of New York,
today suffered a crushing defeat at the
hands of an ex-champion, Beals C.
Wright, of Boston, in the final match in
the All-Comers National Tennis Tourna
ment at the Casino. Only three sets were
required to decide the match, and in each
set Wright was the winner by the score
of six games to three.
Alexander showed a surprising reversal
of form and his strokes, while brilliant
at times, were very erratic. The ex
champlon, who has appeared a trifle
careless In some of his matches in this
tournament, was at his best today, and
his accurate shots and" clever passes
were loudly applauded by the large
gallery.
Tomorrow Wright will meet Champion
William A. Larned, of Annapolis, Jld., in
the match for the title. While Larned.
up to today, has generally been looked
