Portland evened matters up with the
taka yesterday, and Incidentally re
tained the leadership of the league by
coring a t-to-J. derision over Wolver
ton's speedy contingent from across
Can Francisco Bay. It was a game
fairly full of thrills. At least. It was
o to the big bunch of fair fan who
thronged the stands. The "fans" slm
jly went daffy about Jesse Garrett,
with whom he seems to be a red-hot
stavorlte.
Garrett pitched a fine game, though
BfcCredle was on the Job with the der
rick mighty quirk in ths ninth, when
Cameron opened the Inning with a safe
kit. for Big Mae chased Jesse to the
clubhouse and sent Vean Gregg on the
mound to dispose of the ambitious- Oak
landers, who needed one run to tie the
core. Gregg has their number to a
nicety, for he fanned Harry Wolverton.
and Cutshaw ended the melee by hit
ting Into a double play, which ending
was most propitious and sent the crowd
koroe happy In the thought of Portland
till occupying first place.
Tyler Christian started to heave for
the Oakland bunch, and in the third
Inning Wolverton decided to switch
pitchers. The Oakland leader tried to
substitute Moser for Christian when
ut two balls and two strikes had been
called on Oeorare Ort. the first Beaver
up In the Inning, but McGeevy main
tained that the barter must be disposed
of before a change of pitchers could
take place, and in this ruling McOreery
and Fielder Jones differ materially.
"Wolverton also differed, but mildly, and
Thrtstlan wound up by walking Ort.
Mover then went on the hill, and a
couple of errors filled the bases. Olson
fanned. Bill Rapps laced a low liner a
mile a minute toward left field, but
Wolverton flagged It before It touched
the ground, but In so doing he fell
eowa and crawling to third base before
Ort could recover from his astonish
ment at the catch, the Oakland leader
completed a double play unassisted.
However, that fancy stunt only de
layed the Portland scores temporarily.
tar the Markmen flirted with the reg
ister In the fourth Innlna-. Oakland had
cored one run In the first half of this
inning on BUI Hoe-an's Infield hit. Cam
eron's sacrifice and Wolverton's single,
and this run loomed up largely until
the Beavers got busv and chased over
two In their half. Gus Fisher started
It with a single to left, and atole sec
ond. Casey flew to Maggart. and Fhee
kai't out put Fisher on third. Billy
ripeas then beat out a bounder to Wares
and Fisher tide the score. Speas then
wtola second, and scored when Oeorae
Ort sent a slashing double to the fug
3ole.
In the sixth. Portland put anotkar
ran across. Casey walked. Bheeban
flew to Thomas, and Ppeaa beat out
another hit. Ort failed to come through
on a hit-and-run signal and Casey was
out at third. 8peas taklna- second. Ort
lilt alow bounder to Wares and beat
the low toss to first. Cameron dropping
the ball, and In the meantime. Speas
dashed over the plate. When Cameron
tossed to catch Speas. Ort darted for
second and managed to get back to first
.In safety. He was forced at second b.'
Garrett.
Oakland put over a "gift" run In the
.eleventh- With Wolverton and Cutshaw
en lea. Garrett passed Swander. and
fisher had a passed ball on the fourth
one. and loafed In fielding It against
he stand, which mistake allowed Swan
der to take second Instead of being
fceld at first. Thomas then hit toward
riant field and the ball was fielded by
Happa. bur Garrett muffed the toss to
first and Swander tallied.
Cameron was the first Oaklander up
la the ninth, and he slammed a long
single to the flagpole, which fast field
ing bv Buddy Ryan prevented being a
double. At this danerer signal. Mc
Credle tied a can to Garrett and aent In
Vean Great, who has tfie goats of the
Oakland Club. Gregg opened by fan
ning Harry Wolverton. and when Cut-
haw hit to GregsT. tha big southpaw
tossed him out at first, and Bill Rapps
Jieaved to third ahead of Frank Carroll,
who was running for Cameron, and who
tried to go from first to third on the
Infield tap. This play completed a
double and the game was over.
Ralph Willis or "Slim" Nelson will
elt.-h for Oakland todav. while MeCredla
will use either Bill Steen or Tom Sea
ton. Gregg will pitch tht Sunday game
for Portland.

FANDOM AT RANDOM
YESTERDAY'S victory practically
cinches first place for Portland
at least during this series, for Vean
Gregg ought to beat the Oaks tomor
row, whether the Beavers win this af
ternoon or not.
a a . a
Harry Wolverton Is some ball player
despite tha fact that he Is one of the
veterans of the game. He plays that
third base about as frisky as any kid,
and some of his performances yester
day were on the order of the sensa
tional. a a a
One thing about the Oakland leader
Is that he usually does the right thing
at the right time. He knows the game
thoroughly and is still active enough
to make hard playa look easy. If the
Oaks win the rag. Wolverton should
get the credit.
a a a
Ed. Walter, the president of the
Oakland club. Is known as the chief
objecter of the league. Walter Is the
person who baiked the Installation of
the double . umpire system, yet there
Is not a bigger fault-finder In the
league unless It Is Jim Brooks, of Ver
non. a a a
Perle Casey played some fine game
around that aecond sack yesterday, and
his twd-bsse smash In the second in
ning waa the only hit Tyler Christian
allowed. The "Moose" handled seven
fielding chances without the semblance
of a break.
a a a
Happlcus Hogan and his Vernon crew
have not won many games from San

the Hooligans are winning oft,en
enough to give Joy to Portland's fan

helps our cause considerably.
a a a
Wolverton was caught napping in
the ninth inning yesterday. When
Cameron led off with a hit. he took
the big fellow out and substituted
Frank Carroll, a speedier man on the
bases. Wolverton had failed to guess
that McCredie would send Gregg to the
mound. . and Carroll, being a right
handed batter, could have been used
to betteradvantage than running for
another player.
a a a
Tha Philadelphia Athletics seem to
have acquired a firm grip on the
American League pennant for this sea
son. Connie Mack's bunch of young
sters are winning quite regularly of
late, and the fact that they are so
auccessful on the road is a source
of pleasure to their many admirers,
a a a
Moser. the Oakland twirler, who fin
ished yesterday's game, waa not nearly
as steady as he usually Is. Yesterday
he was decidedly wild at times, and did
not have hla curves going quite as
nicely as he does when he works in
winning fashion.
a a a
Tha dear gfrls simply went wild
when Jesse Garrett reached first in
safety in the third Inning, for the fair
ones think Jesse Is "Just too cute for
anything." Jessa must have liked the
applause of the girls, for he worked
hard to win. and was successful.

LINERS JO CARRY CEMENT
Rose City Brings First Shipment In
Competition With Schooners.
Business that may grow to large pro
portions, and Incidentally cut Into trade
exclusively enjoyed in the psst by steam
erhooners. Is the transportation of cement
from Southern California by the Harrl
man coasters. The first lot will arrive on
the steamer Rose City, whfth yesterday
sailed from San Francisco. She loaded
00 tons of the material at San Pedro and
it is expected that consignments will be
dispatched on each steamer of the fleet.
The five-day schedule maintained may
secure for the regular vessels a lion's
share of the cement trade, though rep
resentatives of the line assert that the
shipments serve only as ballast from
San Pedro to San Francisco, because busi
nees In general cargo has not reached pro
portions that can be accommodated out
of San Pedro. Every steam schooner ar
riving from the south brings cement, most
of it being rom San Francisco, but
Southern California has contributed many
cargoes in supplying' the local demand,
which reaches about 15,000 sacks dally.
AYMERIC AND SCVERIC . NEXT
Waterhouse Continues o Secure
" Business in Harriman Territory.
Portland is to enjoy a steamship serv
ice to Orental ports and Manila, through
the Invasion of the local field by the
Frank Waterhouse steamers, for the 8u
verlc and Aymeric are to follow the Ku
meric. which sailed yesterday afternoon.
Balfour Guthrie A Co. are reported to
have contracted with the Waterhouse In
terests for the transportation of L000.
000 feet of lumber from . Portland to
Manila, probably on the Aymeric, which
will arrive next month, and it is said
the rate is $6.50 a thousand feet. Instead
of 7 as agreed on at the last session of
the Trans-Pacific Freight Bureau.
The Kumerlc did not take all cargo
offered, aa she la due to sail from Seat
tle. August S3, and must work more
there but she cleared yesterday with
730 760 feet of lumber worth 8800, a con
signment of 2908 barrels of flour, valued
at J11.630 and 25 bales of cotton bags,
all of . which Is business that heretofore
had been obtained by the Portland &
Asiatic Steamship Company. The only
inference drawn from the coming of the
Waterhouse vessels is that tariffs have
been cut and shipping men are expecting
retaliatory measures by the Harriman
family.
The ICumerlc carried with her two im
migration inspectors, who will watch the
8 Chinese stowaways discovered aboard
her Wednesday. At Seattle they will be
relieved by Northern officers, who will
exercise care to Insure the departure of
the Orientals from that port. It is re
ported that the Celestials will be com
pelled to work their passage back to
Hongkong, but that is a subject in which
the Federal officers have no Interest.
Lewis River Soon to Be Dredged.
In the 'belief that channel operations
on Lewis River can be Inaugurated by
September 1. orders have been "given by
the Corps of Engineers. U. , S. A., for
placing dipper dredge No. 1 In" readi
ness. It Is Intended not to Inaugurate
operations on the Cowltts until after the
next freshet, as It is felt that the stream
will rise early In the Fall, preventing the
completion of permanent work contemplated.
SEWERS TOO SHORT
Outlets in Willamette River
Do Not Extend Far Enough.
DOCTORS SEE WATERFRONT
With Exception of Mains They Find
Conditions Good Council Will
Be Asked to Make Changes
!
While Water at Low Stage.
Urgent recommendations that appro
priations be made by the Council for the
extension of all sewers that do not reach
deep water In the Willamette are to be
made by the City Health Board et Its
next meeting, following . an Inspection
made of the waterfront yesterday after
noon by Dr. George B. 8torey, of. tue
board; Dr. C. A. White, secretary of the
State Board of Health, and Dr. Wolf.
Dr. Wheeler, City Health Offieer, who
has caused a number of property owners
along the river to clean their property,
was not with the party, but Harbormaster
Speler accompanied them and at a num
ber of tha more Important docks the
medical men landed from the harbor pa
trol launch and inspected the premises,
even to rear alleys and under bridges.
It is hoped fully to Illustrate conditions
to the Council, particularly with refer
ence to sewers, which in some instances
have their outlet practically above water,
so that immediate steps will be taken to
remedy them during the low-water stage.
Dockmen complain that some sewers
were constructed so that lower wharves
are rendered absolutely unsanitary, as
the current has no opportunity to carry
away the accumulations, rotting timbers
and like refuse have been dumped be
neath docks and even high water does
not budge them, because of ITfe piling.
Following the Inspection tour Dr. Storey
said:
"We found, with few exceptions, that
everything along the waterfront was in
fine snaps. The sewers do not all ex
tend far enough into the river, so that
there are objectionable features during
low water in Summer, and we feel that
they sfiould be attended to while the rtver
is at a low stage. Dr. Wheeler and Har
bormaster Speler have undoubtedly done
excellent work in ridding the waterfront
of scow dwellers; many unsanitary condi
tions have been remedied, particularly In
the lower harbor. As to the regula
tions governing the mooring of vessls
and berths at docks; we found that every
precaution is being taken to prevent the
river being utilized as a dumping ground.
Also sailors are now protected from fall
ing off gangplanksi
"There are places about the docks that
should be cleaned up and properly main
tained, but we regard the sewer situation
as the most Important and at th,e next
regular session will undoubtedly recom
mend to the Council that proper work be
undertaken.
JOSEPH SUPPLE MAKING FILL
Material Being Dredged From Chan
nel, Thus Doubling Advantage.
Employing a dipper dredge to deepen
the basin in front of his ways by work-
ing nights and utilizing the material for
a.- heavy fill on the south side of his
property. Is an undertaking being pushed
by Joseph Supple, at the foot of Belmont
street. The dredge is mounted oft a scow
owned by the Union Bridge & Construc
tion Company, and Is moored there in
connection with the work being done on
the second caisson for the Harriman
bridge.
Ground south of the ways is sunken
and Mr. Supple plans to raise the level
so that it can be used for shipbuilding
purposes. At the same time the dredging
of the basin will permit river vessels of
deepest draft to be hauled out there.
The dredse Titan, which dug a basin In
front of the main dock, is finishing a cut
to the main channel through the Morrison-street
bridge, and It is said that at
least 30 feet of water will be available
there. Material from the channel is be
ing barged to Alnsworth dock for a fill
that will constitute the foundation. of the
Harriman freight sheds.
DOCKS FOUND INADEQUATE
Vancouver Steamer Line Is Unable
to Secure Berth
Suggestions made by Governor Hay,
of Washington, for the establishment
of public docks at Vancouver, which
will be acted on Wednesday night at
a meeting of the Vancouver Commer
cial Club, may solve the question of a
resumption of steamer service between
Portland and that city, as Captain Good,
owner of the Bateman, which he
planned to start on the route Thursday,
has been unable to secure a berth
there.
For two days a representative of the
steamer interviewed Vancouver mer
chants and It is reported that he was
assured by them that they would route
a share of their freight over the river
route, but when the subject of obtain
ing a dock was investigated no space
was available. It is understood that
a wharf is to be built by a local sand
company there, which may be utilized
for freight and passenger purposes.
Steamer Tahoma to Be Sold.
Negotiations are being entertained by
Captain O. W. Hosford for the sale of
the steamer Tahoma. From Seattle,
Astoria and the Upper Columbia in
quiries have been received as to her
transfer and she probably will be sold
soon. Captain Hosford said yesterday
that he did not require such a large
fleet, and that as the Tahoma had been
built for special towing that had not
materialized,' she could be spared. The
steamer has been out of service re
cently, but will be commissioned Mon
day, when the steamer G. K. Went
worth is to receive an overhauling that
will require several days.
Glenlee to Load From Stream.
For the first time in a lengthy per
iod, tha Victoria dolphins are to be

Sunday. The remainder of her load
will be taken on from the stream and
the tramp Alden will occupy the mill
berth.
Marine Notes.
Having had a wire line removed from
her wheel and work done on deck, the
steamer Resolute yesterday left Supples
yards. , " "
To shift buoys on the Columbia River
bar some distance to the southwest, the
lighthouse tender Armerla will leave
down today.
It was yesterday reported that the
French barks Cannebiere and Babln
Chevaye and the Danish bark Denmark,
had been fixed for grain to load in Oc
tober and November. The latter will ar
rive from Honolulu, while the others are
en route from Europe.

my offices are thronged with the sick and afflicted, availing themselves
of the liberal low fee rate extended to the public by this eminent spe

You may have one or a dozen ailments the price Is the same. I have a
