J Txxrt 4 72 S3 S37 BT W. J. PETRAtN". V Portland made it four straight yester day when Big Eddie Klnsella proved to have the correct Drand of curves in stor age and dished them out In pleasing- man ner bcfort a large crowd. The final score was S to 1 in favor of the McCredle tribe, and it would have been a whites-ash for Klnsella. the . third contest of the kind in the week, had It not been for the fact that Big- Eddie, got a trifle care lss with the dangerous Melchtor In the ninth inning. That worthy laced one of the easy ones out of the lot for a circuit drive. Melchior's healthy swing gave the Seals their only tally, for Eddie re fused to allow Beck or Berry to get In the game and. as Williams had been morgued as the first man up. It was cur tains for further rungetting on the part of the Seals. Kid Mohler tried out a youngster named Berger in the opening chapters, but the lad had bad luck in the first Inning, and ofhe equally bad In the second. This resulted In three runs being collected by the home guard in two Innings. Where upon the Seal captain used his hoisting apparatus and put In Browning, whose pose is as picturesque as his name Is lit erary. Casey Makes First Run. In the Inaugural chapter Casey secured a pass. Cooney dumped a sacrifice on which Berger erred In attempting to get Casey at second. Johnson sacrificed neatly, advancing both runners. Danzig sent a shin toaster at Kid Mohler and Casey tapped the register. Cooney scored on Bassey's long sacrifice fly to Mel chlor. Danzig made the third out when lie attempted to steal second. McCredle led off wim a single in the second: took second on McArdle's error of Ryan's sacrifice, and went to third when Klnsella walked after Madden had filed out. Casey worked McCredle home on a neat hit and run play. Mr. Browning made his little bow when the Seals took the field in the third In ning. Ote Johnson became familiar with liim right off the reel by lacing triple to deep center. Hal Danzig gave Ote plenty of time in which to score by smashing one up against the right garden wall for two bases. Bassey and McCredle went out on outfield flies, and Ryan, who beat out an Infield hit, was caught between the bases on an attempted double steal. McCredle Beats Out Bunt. The sixth Inning witnessed the scoring of Portland's fifth run when three hits In s-iccesslon accomplished the feat. Mc Credie led off by catching the entire Seal Infield napping, and dumping a pretty bunt, easily beat the throw to first. Ryan followed and was safe on a similar hit. Tom Madden pelted a long single to left and McCredie raced home with the fifth run. Yesterday was ladies' day and despite the usual hoodoo attached to the large feminine gathering, the Portland boys behaved exceptionally well and the game was never in doubt after the first Inning. Klnsey pitched one of the best games of the season. He allowed but four bits Including Melchior's healthy swat.

It haJ be come known that the officials of the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States are seriously considering sever ing all relations with the Amateur Athletic Union of England, which, was chiefly responsible for Tom Longboat, the Indian runner, competing In the Marathon . race In London, notwith standing he had been declared a pro fessional by the former body.
