TACOMA, Wash., June 7. (Special.)
Iurins the first inning, when Hurley,
the first Tiger up, hit for three bags, a
disagreement arose between Seaton and
Murray which, coupled with listless playing-,
was mainly responsible for the Colts
losing the opening game of the Tacoma
series. Beaton was wild from the first
and Murray, it is said, urged Casey to
take him out. In the seventh Inning
Murray and Casey engaged in an argu
ment, resulting in Sheehan being sub
stituted for Murray. The score was: To
coma. 4; Portland, 0.
Seaton's wildness happened at critical
times, four erratic pitches being respon
sible for two of Tacoma's runs, while
Samuels, who was continually pitching
himself into holes, tightened up when
there was any danger of the Colts scor
ing. Kippert's brilliant work, which was
the feature of the game, cut off two pos
sible scores. The Tiger captain figured
in three double plays, one of them being
unassisted. Portland's only show. at scor
ing was in the third inning, when she
had two men on bases and only one
down, but Adams and Garry struck out.
The Tigers put up a snappy game in
the field, playing rings around the Colts.
Sfveral of ti e Tigers' hits were stretched
a base by the Inability of the Colts to
hanjr on to the ball.
The score: r

SENATORS HERE TODAY
SACRAMENTO TO ARRIVE FOR
SIX-GAME SERIES.
Graney AVill Pitch for Beavers in
Opening Contest Visiting- Team
in Excellent Shape.
What promises to be the most hotly
contested series on the Vaughn-street
lot for several weeks will be opened this
afternoon between McCredie"s bunch and
the Sacramento team.
'Southpaw" Jack Graney is slated to
work the opening fame against the visit
ors, and Fred Brown. Charlie Graham's
clever right-hander, will occupy the
mound for the visitors. On Its last ap
pearance here Sacramento was somewhat
crippled by the illness of Helney Jansing,
and Charley Doyle played the bag most
of the time,- while Bobby McHale played
the outflelJ.
This trip Sacramento has a new man in
the outfield in Flanagan, the heavy-hitter
of the Vancouver champions of the
Northwestern League of last season, and
he has rounded to nicely and is hitting
the ball well for Graham. Flanagan was
drafted by the White Sox but turned
over- to Graham when Comiskey found he
could not use the big fellow.
Jimmy Shinn continues to put up a
clever game at shortstop for the Senators
and Fred Raynier at second, plays just
as good as he did for Boston before he
Jumped to the outlaws. Taking every
thing Into consideration the Sacramento
team looms up stronger than on its first
appearance here during the opening week,
and McCredle's men will have to be on
their toes to capture the majority of the
games this week.
Sacramento seems td be the lucky team
as far as visits to Portland are con
cerned, for Graham drew the opening
week and played to the biggest week's
business in the history of baseball on the
Coast, and this being Festival week, more
good crowds are in order.

as the score would indicate. The feature
was the pitching of Hill of Independence.

innings he struck out every man to face

four men and allowed 13 hits. Although

Table of Averages.
The Northwestern League players
show but little change ln the relative
positions of the leading batsmen.
"Buck" Connors. Spokane's heavy-hitting
first baseman, maintains his high
percentage, and this week Emll Frisk
is the runner up, for the Seattle outer
grardener has added a few points to his
percentage.
Phil Cooney continues to lead the
Portland batsmen, but the manner in
W'htch that boy, Garry, is coming to the
front means that Phil will have to hit
some to keep the premiership among
Casey's players. Within three weeks
Garry has Increased his average fully
100 per cent points, and this is joyful
news to the fans, for hitting is the big
fellow's specialty. Now that he has his
eye on the ball he can be expected to
advance rapidly to a position among
the sluggers, and if he does his batting
will win lots of games for Portland.
All of the Seattle batsmen kept up
fairly good percentages against the
Tacoma pitchers, although Tealy Ray
mond and Akin were the players to fat
ten up largely. Tacoma and Aberdeen
have no players up among the leading
sluggers, though several of the men
on these teams are hitting at a fairly
respectable figure.
John Bassey has also commenced hit
ting the ball, and after languishing
among the "bush" bunch below the .200
mark sinco the opening week, ' the
"Count" has started things nicely by
bringing himself out of the ruck and
Into a position where his chances of
gaining on the leaders Is greatly en
hanced. The batting averages of the North

WELL, we lost only one game yester
day because only one team played.
Both seasons have a long way to go yet
however.
Will Brother Hughes of the Seattle
Times kindly notice what happened to
Gus Thompson yesterday, and Gus had a
five run lead, too. Still he was due to
lose after winning ten straight.
That Aberdeen team is a perfect whirl
wind on its own grounds, but on the
road it is a fright. Too bad Seattle is
not scheduled for about three straight
weeks at Aberdeen, for the race might
be closer at the end than it is now.
.
The plugs who are agitating the propo
sition to divide the season are a bunch
of quitters. Seattle has not yet secured
such a lead that it cannot be headed. Go
after them and fight 'em js the only way
to beat. You can't do It by quitting.
Walter MeCredie refuses positively to
listen to any proposition to shorten or
divide the season. He maintains that
Casey's team will give Seattle a rub for
the honors yet. and he Is not the least
feazed by the big lead Lyich has taken.
"The higher they get the harder they
will fall," says Walter. .
.
Christopher Columbus Carries and Roy
Wlllett were handed the blue envelope
yesterday, and Johnny Fournler was sent
to join Casey's team at Tacoma- Four
nler's transfer means the dismissal of
Jerry Sheehan.
The arrival of Carl Druhot and the
good showing made by Guyn caused Man
ager MeCredie to dismiss Willett and
