DETROIT SHUT OUT
IN FOURTH GAME
Summers Issues Two Passes,
Which Prove Disastrous
to Tigers.
SCHMIDT THROWS BADLY
Failure to Put Out Schulte Starts
Chicago's Score "Old Reliable
Crawford Faila and Spoils
Detroit's Opportunity.
DCTROIT. Oct. IS. Chicago crept one
cam closer to the world- baseball cham
pionship today by defeating- Detroit. 3
to 9. Chicago has now won three games
of the series, as compared with the one
annexed by Detroit at Chicago yesterday.
Eddie Summers. Detroit, and Mordecal
Brown, the premier pitcher of the Chi
cago team, opposed each other, and the
latter had all the better of the argu
ment, although Summers pitched excel
lent ball in all but one Inning. In the
third Summers passed two on balls, some
of which seemed to the crowd to be sery
much like strikes. He was cutting the
corners In whirlwind fashion, and an Inert
either way would have changed the um
pire's verdict. Chicago got two men on
bases m the first and one in the second,
without the situation, however, growing
precarious.
Summers Wavers and Isoses Game.
In the third, after Sheckard and Evers.
as a result of sprightly efforts of Cough
lln and Schaefcr. had been retired. Sum
mers wavered ever so little and Schulte
was presented with standing room on the
initial bag. The tall Chicago right fielder
promptly concluded to try out Schmidt's
throwing arm. Said arm was tried and
found1 wanting. Schmidt's unsuccessful
throw to second was the first of four
similar failures. Chance, the next man
up. was also allowed to walk, despite the
strenuous objections of the Detroit lot
tery, to say nothing of the crowd. Sin
gles by Steinfeldt and Hofman followed,
sending Schulte and Chance across the
plate. Steinfeldt took third and Hofman
second during the process of rungcttlng.
but the best Tinker could do was a
grounder to O'Leary, who threw him out.
Chicago's next and final run occurred in
the ninth, when Winters took Summers'
plsce in the box. The change made no
difference to Chicago. With two out.
Evers singled to left and stole second,
coming home on Chance's single to r:ght.
Detroit's Lost Opportunity.
Detroit threatened to score only once.
In the fourth Inning Brown found hlm
elf In a pretty hole, when singles by
O Leary and Crawford placed those gen
tlemen respectively on second and flrst
bases, with none out. Captain Chance
left first base and Joe Tinker came
over from short to confer with Brown.
If the conference concerned the handling
of sn expected punt, it was successful.
Cobb, the Detroit right fielder, who bat
ted so strenuously yesterday, came to
bat and bunted. The ball rolled stead
ily toward Brown, who rushed up ;o It
and without even looking at first stit it
on a line to third Just in time to force
0'Iary out.
Crawford meanwhile had taken second
on the play. He is known locally ns the
"old reliable." It Is said of him that he
may be depended on to do the richt thing
at the right time almost Invariably.
Taking a lead off from second, the "old
reliable" for once in his life did the
wrong thing at the wrong time. He
chose this occasion to refresh himself
with the traditional 40 winks. Tins
was some 36 winks too many. Kling
observed the runner's somnolent expres
sion and the violent efforts of Joe Tin
ker to attract attention without makmc
a aolse. The Chicago backstop swung his
srm powerfully and the ball shot down
to Tinker on a line, rudely disturbing the
rest of Mr. Crawford, spoiling Detroit's
onlv chance to score and perceptibly de
pressing the spirits of the spectators.
Crawford retired to the bench very crest
fallen, for where there had been men on
bases with an excellent chance of scoring,
now there were two out with only Cobn
at first. Cobb started to steal second at
the same time that Vmplre Connolly
called a third strike on Rossman. Ine
stimably Kltng did not hear what the
umpire said, for he threw to Kvers and
Klem called Cobb out. The rlay. how
ever, did not count, as Rossman had al
ready made the third out.
Runs Nipped at first Base.
In the fifth Inning Coughlin was hit by
a pitched bail but got no further than
first. In the sixth O'Leary got his sec
ond hit. but was immediately doubled.
In the next three Innings Detroit went
out one-two-three. The pitching of
Brown was clearly tip to his usual stand
ard. His only wlldness was In hitting
Coughlin. He allowed four hits, two of
which went to 0'Ieary and two to Craw
ford, one ot the latter"s being a double.
He struck out four men. besides accept
ing four fielder's chances !n perfect style.
While the crowd today was larger than
that which turned out to view the open
ing struggle of the series here, it was not
sn large as had been expected, in view
of the Detroit victory yesterday. The
turnstiles registered 12.S07 paid admis
sions, from which the gross receipts were
19.:.!1. The ground Immediately in front
of the grandstand was still muddy from
Faturday's play, but the diamond was
In good condition and the weather was
Meal for spectators and players. The
score:

SCALPERS TO BE ELIMINATED
Will Not Get Tickets for Future
Championship Games.
CHICAGO, Oct- 13. Sales of baseball
tickets for future world's series direct
from the National Commission to she
public probably will be the outcome of
the method of selling tickets to the com
bat now being waged.
Letters and disgruntled enthusiasts
poured into newspaper offices yesterday,
all with the same tale of being unable
to buy reserved seat tickets from the club
box office, but of being offered the cov
eted pasteboards at a premium from
scalpers before the public sale began.
The result has been an estimated attend
ance of 15.000 for the two games played
In Chicago, and an estimated loss in re
ceipts of J25.000. the bulk of which would
have gone to the players.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. IS. (Special.)
The Seals never seemed to have a
chance today, at any stage Of the game,
and were forced to succumb to tbe tune
of 7 to S. A belated rush in the eighth
inning saved thom, from a whitewash,
but in the previous rounds Garrett was
unbeatable, and had all Long's hireling
batsmen popping up easy flies or taking
three wild swings.
Portland commenced doing things in
the second frame, thanks to a couple
of booby plays by the local Infield, two
runs crossing the pan wltbout-a hit be
ing made. Then in the fourth they
added three more tallies and another in
the fifth. Garrett hung up distress sig
nals in the eighth -and the Seals fell
on his offerings to such purpose that
three men paid their respects to the
pan.
The Beavers made an extra one in
the ninth. Just to show the game was
up their sleeve. Mohler's posing and
sulking gave the Portlanders an easy
run In the ninth. Danzig got to second
on a single and Ryan's sacrifice. Mc
Credle singled to center. Beck making
a bad peg to second, and Mohler was
too busy calling down the center fielder
while Danzig ambled home, the ball
lying harmlessly near Mohler's feet all
the time.
Johnson's unassisted double In the
ninth put an end to the argument.

nounced after the game today, which
Los Angeles won. 6 to 2, that he would

GUILTY OF ELECTION FRAUD
Judgment Against Ex-Mayor Reed,
of Estacada, Affirmed. (
SALEM, Or Oct It (Special.) The
Supreme Court today affirmed the
Judgment against former Mayor J. W.
Reed, of Estacada, who was convicted
of election frauds In colonizing voters
for the purpose of controlling the
election in precinct S7, in Multnomah
County. The charge and proof against
Reed was that he procured Harry
Young to remove to precinct 37 the
night before the June election, 1906.
for the purpose of voting on the Uqour
question which was submitted In that
precinct at that time. Young; voted
on that question and for state, county
and precinct officers as well. After
trial before Judge A. L. Fraier, Reed
was found guilty. He appealed, as
signing as his principal ground for ap
peal the denial of his motion for a
directed verdict of acquittal. His con
tention was that though a vote Is
taken on? the liquor question at a gen
eral election, the election, so far as
the liquor question is concerned. Is a
special election. Tho statute provid
ing a penalty for inducing a voter to
remove from one precinct to another
applies only to general elections.
On this point the Supreme Court, In
an opinion written by Commissioner
King, holds that when tbe liquor elec
tion is held in a year when there la a
general election, the election Is gen
eral and the acts charged are within
the provision of the criminal statute,
section 1907 ot the code.
The opinion also holds that it Is Im
material whether Young became a,
legal voter by his change of residence
or whether he had been advised or
thought he became a legal votr. "Im
porting voters Is one crime and illegal
voting is another," says the opinion,
and It is held that Reed's own admis
sions show his guilt whether Young
voted Illegally or not.

Dear Sir: The Oregonlan has recently In
augurated a plan to guarantee a livestock
show and race meet for 1909 at the new Coun
try Club's plant, and at a recent meeting
of the committee selected to procure elgners
to the applications for season tickets, the
Driving Club has been urged to do Its part.
These season tickets are transferable and
lncluds grandstand reservation, and It Is
planned to make it possible for the holder to
use them for his Individual purpose by ad
mlttlrff him as many times as he desires
during the meet or to enable him, if he so
desires; to take with him a party composed
of eight or ten In any one day.
The success of the Country Club means a
great deal to the City of Portland and the
State of Oregon, and It Is urged by the com
mittee of tbe Riverside Driving Club that
each member make application for as many
season tickets as he can find possible, and
I am enclosing herewith a blank application,
which I hope you will subscribe to for as
many tickets as you conveniently can. This
will be the only opportunity to procure sea
son tickets for next year's ehow, and as
these tickets will make valuable Christmas
presents and will also be a source of con
stant pleasure next year, they will surely
prove ft good Investment.
Permit me to urge you to fill out enclosed
blank for as many tickets as possible and
return to the undersigned at your earliest
convenience, so that the special committee
having In charge this guarantee for next
year's show will be able to ngure definitely
on what to expect.
Tours very truly,
PAUL S. DICK, Secretary.

INDORSE COUNTRY CLTJB SHOW
East Side Organizations Pledge Sup
port to Campaign.
The United East Side Push Clubs, at its
session last night pledged Its hearty sup
port to the Portland Country Club and
Indorsed the movement to sell season
tickets for next year's stock show. The
following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas the recent stock exhibition held
by the Country Club was not well attended
and that In view of the fact that an effort
Is being made to dispose of a sufficient
number of season tickets for the 1809 show
to insure suocess therefore, be it
Resolved, That it Ms the sense of the
United East Side Push Clubs that the
Country Club represents a most Important
enterprise to Portland, and this organisa
tion strongly Indorses the movement made
to place these season tickets and urges all
citizens of the East Side specially to sub
scribe for one or more of the tickets, and
thereby help boost the city.
It was decided to change the night of
regular meetings to the second and last
Thursday of each month, instead of
Tuesday, so as not to conflict with meet
ings of the Charter Board, and the sec
retary was authorized to Invite members
of the commission to addres the clubs
on the different sections of the new char
ter. The matter of the annual banquet
was also discussed favorably, but tlnal
action was postponed until the next reg
ular meeting.
