San Francisco profited by the erratic pitching of AI Carson as well as the ec centric fielding of his support yesterday, and won the ladies day same, which was more of a farce than anything else, by the score of 8 to . The Seals were not anv too good in the fielding line them Halves, but their errors seemed less costly than those contributed by the home aruard. and the lead secured early In the came proved sufficient. Tt was too bad that such a poor exhi bition should have been presented before euch a big crowd, for the grandstand was billed to its capacity with the fair fans and their escorts, all of which caused Frank Ish. one of the San Francisco mag nates, who was present, to marvel at Portland s support of baseball. "Why. we have three ladies' days In San Fran cisco and don't get this many at all of them." said Ish. - Carson opened the first Inning by fan ning Roily ZeJder. He marred this im mediately afterward by passing Kid Moh- Jer. but Bodle also fanned, making two cut- Mohler stole second and when Breen erred on Nick Williams' chance. Mohler took third. Williams also stole and Mel chlor's bingie along the third base line reglstersd two runs. Portland came back at the Seals by putting two over on Its own account In the first. Olson bingled to left, and Speas was safe when Berry erred on his Intended sacrifice. Ryan beat out a slow tap to Zelder. Olson taking third and Fpeas second, filling the bags. McCredle's fly to Jim Williams scored Olsen. and an error by GrifTIn tallied Speas. A double plav ended this rally. In each of, the third and fourth innings Fan Francisco amassed two runs, the first brace being directly due to Ort's er ror at first, while the second brace came ..n aoupies by Griffin and Bodie and a pass to Mohler after two were out. Car ton was then Riven the exit signal and Graney was substituted. Zelder opened the sixth with a safe hit which dropped Just out of reach of Speas. who played a trifle toe deep. Mohler's sacrifice and Bodle's single sent the speedy one home. Singles by McCredie and Fisher and a fielder's choice. Johnson hitting Into a double play for the second time in the srame, gave Portland one more In the home team's half of the sixth. A weird toss by Olsen sent Berry to third, from whence he scored on Griffin's acrlflce fly in the seventh. A belated rally was held by the home team in the ninth. Ort and Breen walked nd Graney hit safely, scoring the for mer. Then Mohler chased Griffin and sent Browning on the hill. Olson was -an easv victim, going out Zelder to Nick "Williams, without Breen advancing, but Fpeas' long fly to Jim Williams scored I'lck with the second run of the Inning. Evsn fanned and the game was over. Jesse Garrett will pitch today for Port land and the "Little Giant" will endeavor to beat Browning, his old-time rival in the Texas league, who has now won etra'ght games for San Franisco.

(Special.) Lefty Fred Miller had "Portland's swatters In a trance for eight of the nine Innings this afternoon. They woke up In the ninth and slammed out enough hits to drive two runs over the plate. That was after all hope was gone, however. They were 11 runs to the bad and the fighting spirit was not there. Seaton was batted hard, his support waa spotted, and there was not a spectacular feature In the whole a-ame. Miller whiffed 12 of the visiting sluggers and kept them scattered. Crocker le,d both teams at the Dat with three hits, one of them a slashing double, in three times up. Seattle grabbed enough runs In the second on scratch hits and slow fielding to stow the game away. Frisk. Magee and Mil ler hit, Adams fell down on Whaling's grounder, Capron and Akin walked, netting a count of four. Capron and Magee hit consecutively in the fourth, the latter laying down a perfect bunt Just out of reach. Whaling sacrificed and Miller drove in a run with a sin gle to short Hits by Akin, Bennett and Frisk net ted two more In the seventh, and four hits, a hit by pitcher and a base on balls ran the count up five more in the eighth. With the bases full Seaton walked Raymond. Portland scored In the third, when Crocker walked. Murray advanced him with a single to left, and Seaton drove him In with a hit to second on which Murray forced at second. Portland was thereafter never dangerous till the ninth, when Ward, Crocker and Mur ray hit and Akin threw the ball away on Seaton's grounder. Bassey walked and Casey came to bat for Cooney. Murray was run 'down between third and home, however, ending the lnnlns. Casey tried out Ward, a new man from Reglna. at first in the latter half of the game. He did well. Score: SEATTLE.

He says he never felt better or ran better in h:s career, and his recent vic tory at Los Angeles during the Elks' convention there testifies that the veteran has lost none of his speed. "Pete" 6ays the other clubs will have to hustle some to beat the Olympic team, and he even expresses the opinion that Cheek, the California hurdler, will beat Smithson.

Yes terday's mail brought missive from Far rell reminding Walter of the agreement for the disposal of Johnson and also the announcement that the New York club's check in part payment for the player was on the way. Judge McCredie said that the deal for Johnson embraces a cash consideration and the refusal of three players next Spring. As the McCredies frame all their trades or sales now so as to include the addition of new players, Portland stands to get three players from the American League Gothamltes next Spring. Ote Johnson, the hard-hitting third sacker, has been a member of the Port land club since September, 1907, when he was purchased from the Charleston, S. C, club by the McCredies. Since he has been with the club he has more than made good and is one of the most popu lar players on the team. His most note worthy characteristic is his batting abil tiy, for he is known all over the circuit as one of the most dangerous batsmen In the league, and opposing pitchers fre quently walk him in a pinch. He fs not a great star in the fielding line, but is a steady, conscientious player and possesses one of the best throwing arms of any infielder in the league. Johnson's many friends here will bid him a fond farewell when he leaves for New York to Join the Highlanders, and all hope that he will succeed up in the big brush. As he will not report to New York until next Spring, the fans will see him in action in a number of games yet. When Kinsella affixed his signature to a Northwestern League contract last Spring it was with the understanding that Walter McCredie would endeavor to n.I4-V. i j T?-i orM(rtn . ao . aM ? . . ' the top. His work with the Portland Colts this season has been so good that he has attracted the attention of several major league scouts. Dick Padden, rep resenting the St. Louis club, was espe cially taken with Klnsella's actions, and recommended him highly to President Robert L. Hedges, principal owner of the American League team at the Mound City. Hedges took the matter up with the McCredies and the result In that Port land has contracted to deliver Kinsella to the Browns for a consideration of $2000 and the refusal of two players next flprlng. The cash consideration is' con ingent upon Kinsella making good, but Portland gets the players, anyhow, so the McCredies have not driven such a bad bargain after all. In stipulating that players be Included In these transactions, Walter McCredie has his eye to business insofar as the building up of a new team for next sea son is concerned. He Is one of the shrewdest managers in the businrss In picking talent, and by arranging with the . major league clubs to draft certain play ers for him, he succeeds in bolstering up the spots likely to be weakened by the loss of his star players. With Harkness, Johnson and Kinsella ! disposed of, and deals pending for Buddy ! Ryan and one or two others, the Port- j land teams seem likely to be riddled be- j fore the drafting period arrives. 1 1 FANDOM AT RANDOM fPHE secret of yesterday's defeat at the j Jl hands of the Seals lies in the fact that Portland toesed the ball farther than did the Seals. The Seals made at - least three errors I yesterday, but the Portland batsmen are given hits on two of them. Berry had plenty of time to get Speas in the first inning for one. Claude Berry faced the Portland pitch ers five times yesterday and reached first base every time. He went to third four times, scoring once. At that, Claude got only one hit. " 'lolly Zelder, while he did not get on the paths but once, played In his old-time form, for he scored a run that time. The speed marvel aleo behaved some .about that third sack.

Kinsy has been ambitious to get up for several sea eons. Kid Mohler was a prominent factor In Portland's defeat yesterday. In addition to his performance in the run-getting line, the crabbed one handled several ground ers in the neatest possible manner. He cut off several clouts ticketed for hits. Spokane is being handed some fat pack ages y that Vancouver Club, and if Brown's bunch doesn't commence to hus tle soon the Black Cats are likely to pass it In the percentage column. All the games In the Northwestern League were slugging contests. Judging by the scores yesterday. The unfortunate Colts were given another drubbing by Lynch's warriors. Tacoma came near winning a game yes terday, for Butler's crew had the best of it until Aberdeen scored seven runs in one Inning. It seemed to be an off day for good baseball all over.
