Portand clinched first place by trimming
the Oaks yesterday in the third straight
game, by a score of 3 to 2. The Mackmen
nailed the game by scoring all the runs
In the first Inning, when they were fa
vored by the muffing of a third strike by
Catcher Mitze, which bobble was fol
lowed by an error by Nelson and a cou
ple of healthy hits; one of the latter being
-a triple by George Ort.
It was ladies' day. too, and the dear
x ones, clad in their finest openwork Sum
mer regalia, were there in droves, and
succeeded in stirring up the enthusiasm
at inopportune times, as usual. The girls
dld not care who made the sensational
plays, or the long hits; they applauded
anyway. The bevy of charming though
talkative ones who perched back of the
press box yelled themselves so hoarse that
they mufst have had difficulty explaining
to the worse half on their late arrival
Jiryne.
Stcen In Pitcher's Box.
Sweet Six Steer was on the hilltop for
Portland, and the Oaks went to the bench
In order in the opening rounds In Port
land's half, the procession was around
the sacks, instead of to the water bucket,
end, naturally, this pleased the bugs and
ibuggesses.
Buddy Ryan was the first assailant to
face "Slim" Nelson, who, though defeated,
allowed but half the hits his teammates
found off Steen. Ryan whiffed at the
third pitch, but Catcher Mltze was on the
Job with buttered fingers. Buddy reaching
first before the backstop could recover the
elusive sphere. Ivan Olson then dumped
u. sacrifice at the slim person, who picked
the ball up, but heaved somewhat wide to
the first corner, Cutshaw failing to bold
the ball In the mitt he stuck out to
stop it.
This put two Portland men on bases
end none out, when Bill Raps advanced
tooth with a sacrlfli. George Ort smashed
one to center, which took a hop away
from Carroll, and before it was recovered
Ryan and Olson had scored, and Ort was
perahed on third. Captain Casey then
pulled a squeeze bunt which, tallied Ort.
though he went out at first on the tosB
from Nelson. Total, three runs for Port
land, which proved enough to win.
Oakland Gets Acquainted.
In the fourth inning. Oakland became
acquainted with the register, when, with
one out. Maggart doubled to the left
fence, took third on Hogan's out, and
scored on Carroll's single past Casey. In
the eighth inning the Oaks became most
threatening, for they succeeded 'in filling
the sacks, but Steen settled and disposed
of Bill Hogan without damage.
In the ninth, the visitors put over the
peoond run, but that was all for them.
Carroll opened with a double to center,
end took third on Cutehaw'a sacrifice.
"Wares went out at first, but Thomas,
who succeeded Mltse. singled. Lively, bat
ting for Nelson, failed to negotiate, and
the game was over.
Mospr will heave for Oakland today,
while Vean Gregg will he sent on the hill
for Portland. The score of yesterday's

Be : Made, but Foreign Inter
ests "Will Be Guarded.
TOKIO, July, 15. Lieutenant-General
Viscount Terauchl left today for Seoul
to assume the duties of Japanese Resident-General
of Corea. At the moment
of departure he stated that Japan would
not use the mailed fist in Corea or an
tagonize the real interests of Coreans or
those of foreign powers. Radical changes
in the system of government would, how
ever, he thought, be necessary.
In view of the general belief that the
annexation of the Hermit Kingdom by
Japan will not be long delayed, -a formal
expression from the Viscount as to his
proposed policy was sought. He replied:
"i am unable to outline a policy in
detail, regarding the future of Corea.
The policy for the development of the
country and improvement of the con
ditions of the people which was adopted
by Prince Ito and Viscount Sone will be
mine."
The unification of police forces in
Corea, a scheme often tried, has been
finally effected by General Terauchl. He
has decided to abolish the Metropolitan
Police Bureau and incorporate the
Japanese and Corean policemen with
the gendarmerie, and the commander
of the gendarmerie will have aug
mented authority.

soft spots on the new grade of the
Nehalem road between the summit and
the junction, which- have not been
rocked. There the machine stuck and
had to be hauled out with a tackle. Mr.
Parker says these spots are being re
paired, so- that within a short time no
difficulties will be met. The rest of
the road is in excellent shape and good
time can be made over It, although, ut
course, the greater portion of it is as
yet only what may be termed a Sum

LYON IS HELD TO BLAME
ACQUITTAIi OF BROWXSVI1LE
OFFICER DISAPPROVED.
Information as to Ammunition With
held Improperly, Reviewing
Authority Finds.
NEW TORK, July 16. Captain Sam
uel D. Lyon, of the Twenty-fifth In
fantry, U. S. A-, recently tried at Fort
Meyer. Vs., for irregularities growing
out of the Brownsville, Tex., riots,
was found not guilty and honorably ac
quitted by the court. General Walter
Howe, commander of the Department
of the East, however, acting as review
ing authority, passed on the case today
and disapproved the finding of the
court. General Howe said:
"The ' evidence clearly shows that
Captain Lyon first received the ball
cartridges In question In April. 1906,
and that In August of that year he had
not only 3600 rounds (In three original
packages) as reported on his ordnance
returns for the period ending June 30,
1906. but also approximately 20 rounds
per man in the bands of the men of his
company.
"From the evidence, the only reason
able and probable explanation of the
apparent surplus was that too many
rounds had been dropped as expended
June 30, 1906. This surplus was covered
by firing in supplementary practice
during the month of October and not
dropping any as expended during tho
period ending December 31, 190b, and
by taking up that time 200 rounds as
surplus.
"Tho reviewing authority has no
doubt, from the evidence, that the ex
act condition of his ammunition was
known to Captain Lyon, especially after
his Inspection following the Browns
ville affair. As the question of ammu
nition entered so largely into all the
subsequent Investigations, there Is no
reason why be was unable before the
court of inquiry to give exact and full
Information thereof, except his desire
to cover up the error in his returns and
certificates.
"From the above It Is evident that
the accused should not have been hon
orably acquitted and the same Is dis
approved." Runaway Causes Fatal Injury.
THE DALLES. Or., July 15. (Spe
cial.) A. s. Milne, senior member of
the firm operating the Independent
Meat Market In this city, was critically
injured in a runaway accident late last
I
night. He was driving to his home on
West Fourth street, and had crossed
the bridge, when the horse became
frightened by a dog and Jumped to the
side of the road, throwing Mr. Milne
out. He struck on his head, fracturing
his skull. He was removed to the hos
pital, where he regained consciousness
this morning. Small hope of his re
covery is entertained.
