The Beavers now have again landed in the first position. "Spider" Baum was on the hilltop for the trailers' and pitched a good game, but the homers succeeded in slamming his offerings often enough to collect toll on a trio of runs before the eighth Inning ar rived. Van Buren Lands Homer. In the meantime Steen had ambled along easily, for he shut the Senators out without a hit for six Innings, but in the seventh "Deacon" Van Buren con nected for a wallop high against the right garden wall for a home run, as the ball settled between the fences. Two more hits followed this, but no more runs were collected. In the eighth the Senators went after Bill something fierce, for two singles and Briggs' double netted two runs, tying the score, which had read 3 to 1 in Portland's favor ifp to that time. Portland commenced scoring in the opening inning. Smith was out, but Ol son rapped a single to center. Hetllng put him on second on a grounder to Shlnn and Gus Fisher smashed one for two bases, sending Ole home for the first run.. Portland scored once more In the fifth inning, when Darrlnger. in a hurry to get Speas at first, heaved high over Hal Dan zig's head, and Billy perched himself on second. Steen singled to left, sending Speas to third, and the two then pulled the double steal, negotiating successfully because Spiesman dropped Raymer's re turn to the plate to catch Speas. Van Buren was the first man up in the reventh and he soaked out the aforemen tioned homer. However, Portland put another run across In the home team's half of that inning, end still held -a two run advantage. Ryan and Speas singled successively, but Steen went out at first after they had negotiated a double steal. Smith walked, filling the bases, and Ol son's rap to left, which Parsons tried hard to corral, sent Buddy Ryan over the pan for the count. Hetling hit to Shinn and a double play retired the side.

Van Buren flew to Speas. but Briggs slammed a double to right, though Per pons was held at third. It was up to Hal Danzig, who participated In his first game for some time, and the ex-Port-lander shot one over Bill Rapps' head for a single, on which both Brigga and Per sons scored, making the register read "3 all." Speas was the first man up in the ninth, and he was called out on a "lose decision by Van Haltren. Steen ranyed out his second hit of the game, and while Smith was fanning, "Big Six" stole second. Then came Olson with his timely hit along the third-base line, which scooted Steen over for the winning run and the game, the hardest fought of the series, was a matter of. history. ; Two games will be piayed for one ad mission this afternoon, the first being scheduled to start promptly at 2 o'clock.

BILL STEEN OUTPITCHES BAUM Eacb Throws Same Number of Balls in Sunday Game. A remarkable feature of the pitching of Steen and Baum in yesterday's game is the fact that each threw the same number of balls in the nine innings played. J. H. Anthony, a veteran fan, kept tally on each thrown ball by each pitcher, and when he totalled hi3 count at the end of the game he found that each twirler had thrown to the batter exactly 136 times in the game. The tables show that Baum threw more called "balls" than did Steen, while Steen allowed more "foul strikes." Baum also beat Steen in the number of strikes called or struck at and missed during the game, though it Was by a narrow margin. The table of thrown balls by the two pitchers is as follows: Steen.

FINISH McCredie and Hogan of Ver non Determined to Land Former Beaver Pitcher. PORTLAND IS REAL OWNER Witli President of Coast League Rul ing In Favor of Nortli and Hogan Refusing to Abide by Decision Case Goes to Commission. Pitcher Al Carson, formerly of' the Beavers, later of the Chicago Nationals, and now ostensibly of Vernon,' is become the storm center of a hot contest. President Graham, of the Pacific Coast League, has ruled that Carson must play with Portland. Notwithstanding this rul ing. Manager Hogan, of Vernon, declares he will keep Carson. McCredie Sees "Frame-Up." "In my opinion the sending of Carson to Vernon was a framed-up proposition when Carson was drafted," said Walter McCredie yesterday. "I think Frank Chance simply stuck in the draft to get Carson for Hogan, for the Vernon and Chicago managers are great friends. It will not do them any good, however, for we have clear title to the player, and he will eventually have to come here any how. The National Commission will gee to that." "The Vernon club will retain the services of Pitcher Carson if it costs us J1.000." declared "Happy" Hogan at Los Angeles yesterday. "We are entitled to him, and refuse to be Jobbed by any Coast' League manager or official or combination of them. Portland had an opportunity to get Carson back but failed to grasp" the opportunity. Now, when it is too late, with the evident intention of trying to embarrass Vernon, McCredie has put in a claim for the player." "Hogan cannot possibly gain anything by such talk as that," said MoCredie; when shown Hogan's interview. "Not only does the rule governing the drafting of players provide for the return of any drafted player to the club from whence he came, but right here in the Pacific Coast League we have a rule which strin gently provides that no other club can dicker for a drafted player without the consent of the club from which such player had been drafted. Hogan Playing "Waiting Game." "Hogan is cutting up nasty in this mat ter, for Judge Graham, in accordance with the league ruling, has ordered Car son to my club, and the only thing Hogan will accomplish will be to deprive me of Carson's services until the National Commission eventually awards him to Portland, for it cannot do otherwise. Car son was drafted from my club, and I am, and always have been, ready to return the $1000 draft price received for this player." In a telegram sent to Hogan, Walter McOredie made formal claim to Carson, saying: "Carson belongs to Portland and we want him. Judge Graham president of the league, has ruled that Carson Is the property of the Portland club." "Can't see it that way," Hogan is re ported as having commented on Mc Credie's message. "Carson was a drafted player, and rule No. 42 of the National Commission provides that should a major league club decide to dispose of a drafted player, the club from which he was draft ed must be given five days' notice regard ing the contemplated action, and that If it fails to claim the player within that time that the major club may dispose of him as it sees fit. On April 25 Chicago notified McCredie that it had decided to dispose of Carson, but Portland failed to put In a claim for him within the stated five days. We will carry the fight to the National Commission, if neces sary." CHANCE BLAMES M'CREDIE Chicago Cub's Leader Explains His Side of AL- Carson Deal. CHICAGO, May 29. (Special.) Trou ble is said to be brewing between Owner McCredie, of the Portland club, and Manager Chance, of the Cubs, as the result of the latter's recent action in sending Pitcher "Kit" Carson to Vernon, Cal. According to dispatches tonight from Portland, McCredie charges Chance with having deliber ately drafted Carson with the Intention of turning him over to Hogan, boss of the Vernon club and a personal friend of the Cubs leader. "McCredie is mistaken," said Chance tonight. "If he knew the rules govern ing organized baseball he never would have made such a childish break. I drafted Carson after hearing of his good work on the Coast, because I thought he would be a valuable addi tion to the Cubs' pitching staff. There is a rule stating that players drafted by the majors may be returned to the club from which they were taken, pro vided the latter club desires his serv ices. "This notice must be filed within five days after the major-league club de cides to drop the player. McCredie was notified according to the rules, .but he has since remained silent. We never heard a word from him. He should read the rules before coming out with such a statement." NATIONAL LEAGUE. STANDING INCLUDING GAMES MAY 20.

Wildness on the part of Pitcher Raf ferty. coupled with hard hitting by the Sellwood Cubs yesterday afternoon on the Vancouver diamond, won for Sellwood over Vancouver by the score of 14 to 5. Rafferty in the first inning walked live men. He was hit hard also. Bladen, the auburn-haired lad, relieved Rafferty from duty in the box and was hit hard, too. The Sellwood players have apparently found their batting eyes. The game was witnessed by a good-sized delegation of fans. Owing to some misunderstanding as to whether they should play or not, on ac count of the wet grounds, a number of the Sellwood players did not put in an ap pearance until the third Inning. How ever, a number of the Vancouver sub stitutes played for Sellwood until its reg ular players came. Scott, of Sellwood, pitched a steady game and held the hits down.
