Costly errors and poor base-running conspired to rob the Colts of a vic tory to celebrate their return to xne Vaughn-street grounds yesterday, the double handicap enabling the Victoria Bees to buzz their way through nine innings for a 4-3 score. As usual the Northwesterners opened the series in a manner to give the lie to those followers of the Fielder Jones' circuit who contend that the "class" of the organization is equal to the Pacific Coast. Portland presented Tommy Tonneson as the mound "hope" of the afternoon, while Victoria trotted forth Irving Kantlehner pronounced Kant-lean-er but soon substituted Walter Smith, a lanky right hander, for the ex-Santa Clara College south paw. The hits were 11 for each team, and the reason the Bees won was be cause the Colts played an inferior game. Errors Are Courtly. The Colts erred twice during the diamond matinee, and on each oc casion the miscues converted Into runs. Then they had the best chaace in the world to add another defeat to Kantlehner's record. Instead of giving him his first victorious mark, but poor base running gave them only one run on four clean hits ana a stolen oase. "Dad" Meek, the roly-poly Victoria backstop, was directly responsible for two of the four Bee tallies. in tne second inning, with Yohe on third from a slnsrle. a stolen base and a fielder's choice, he scratched out a hit to lie rrnwrll with two gone. In the third inning Yohe singled once more, and when he reached third on Kibbles fumble of Tonneson's toss, was sent across the rubber on Meek's sacrilice fly. The Colts took the lead in the second Inning, scoring two runs of McDowell's ineie. a stolen base, two passes, and Kibble's single. They preserved their one-run margin with a tally in the third, but should have scored three. Mahoney singled and foolishly tried to take sec ond on a bad throw to the infleld. but died at second. Cruikshank singled, stole second, and scored on McDowell's single. Smith was then sent to the mound, and Williams filed out. Harris drove the ball to right and. although he had time to spare, McDowell cut third and was called out by the watch ful umnire. Tin Scored la Sixth. The Bees secured their final and de. elding duo of runs In the sixth ln r.inir. With one gone Williams dropped Weed's high fly to the center of the diamond, and a stolen base ana tnree (niriix ni-ored Weed and Clementson. Smith pitched a nice game after he had settled down, scattering his five hits over as many Innings, and tight ening up at the few moments in which the Colts loomed up as aaugeruua. Tonneson evaded further trouble un til the ninth, but fickle luck veered to him, too late to count, in that period. and the visitors failed to score on tnree hits and one stolen base.

BOSTON MAY BE BIDDER Mensor Writes "It's as Easy to Hit 'Em" In Big Company as With Northwestern Teams Fleet Fielder Makes Headway. Eddie Mensor, who is cutting up such capers as leadofl man . lor tne Pittsburg Pirates, is not the only man to llgure in a Portland Colt ale this season if the advances made regarding Jack Kibble, Colt third-sacker, are any criterion. Tim O'Rourke, scout for Com- iskey and other major league owners. approached Manager "Williams at Seat tle recently with a request lor a price on the player. It Is understood that OKoiime is representing the Boston Nationals in the Kibble deal, as he Intimated as much to Williams. The Colt manager named a sum around J3000 for Kibble and the figure apparently frightened off the Seattle scout, for negotiations have not been opened formally. How- over, the fact that O'Rourke thinks well enough of the mtlelder to asa a price shows that Kibble probably will be sought before the opening of the draft season. Kibble has been playing good ball for the Colts this season and has im proved since he was placed in the lead- off position. His wonaerrui arm, backed by youth and a clear brain, is what has commended itself to those scouring the country in search of pros pectlve major league talent. "The unluckiest ball team In the world" is what Owner 'Wattelet, of Vic toria, thinks of his Northwestern League Bees. "We would be at the top of the heap and leading the race by a good margin If we had not encountered a streak of bad luck which has never been equalled in this league. If In any other," declares Wattelet. "Three broken legs, two dislocated knees, another man with water on the knee, quins-, sprained ankles galore, broken fingers and several attacks of sickness have conspired to rob us of the nennant. "Frione, Grindle and Nordyke are th victims of broken lega Grindle will be out of the game for the rest of the season, while Nordyke, hurt in the last game of the opening series, of the sea son, in Portland, will not be ready for duty for another two weeks. Merrltt and Keller were out with dislocated knees, and Merrltt Is out again with water on the knee, and probably will be unable to play any more this sea son. Ptadlllo had the quinsy, Brennan was sick and, in addition, had a bad ankle; Meek was sick and also had a broken finger, while Kennedy is just recovering from a badly sprained ankle." The addition of Steiger and Callahan to the Colt twirling Btaff gives Wil liams four southpaw rooundmen. Cal lahan pitched for Chehalis, of the Washington State League, and was touted by Jimmy Byrne, the well known backstop, as the best in the cir cuit. He worked in a dandy game for the Colts Sunday morning. The Colt heaving squad is composed of Southpaws Tonneson, Steiger, Calla han and Glrot, and Righthanders East Icy, Doty, Bloomfield and Veazey. It s probable that tnis squad win be cut down one or two men within the next two weeks. "We lost several games at Spokane by the most erratic pitching in the world." declares Nick Williams. "In one game we had the best of an 8-3 score In the seventh inning, when, three pitchers walked five men In a row without putting over a strike." Kantlehner. the southpaw pitcher who started the game for Victoria yesterday, was signed by Williams two years ago. He walked half a dozen men and hit two in the opening of a practice game and was sent back to Santa Clara. It's just as easy to hit them up here as in the Northwestern League," writes Eddie Mensor. ex-Colt infielder, to Bill Speas, from Pittsburg. Mensor was hitting .433 the other day and looked so good to Fred Clarke that he turned Edlngton, another out fielder, back to Wheeling. The Pirates have stolen half as many bases as the Giants this season, and the Mensor speed made a big hit with Manager Clarke and the Pirate fans. Eddie has been keeping Mike Donlin out of the regular lineup, which speaks volumes for his prowess. His bad ankle has been bothering him a little, but he refuses to give up. A Seattle report says that Dugdale has put a prize of J3500 on Pitcher Fullerton, and that Wattelet Is asking $2500 for "Boy Scout" Rawllngs, his shortstop. However, at" says he has no sales on Just now and 1b long ing for a chahce to pull off a couple. A Los Angeles report says that Charlie Baum, Sacramento pitcher, may- go to the Southern California club. At kin. principal owner of the Senators, says that the Angels have made a cash AND NEW SOUTHPAW TWIBLEB grtt ! offer for the moundman. Baum Is dis satisfied and Atkin is Inclined to let him go. Del Howard says the Seals are the worst disorganized team he was ever on. Dannv Long was In bad with the nlnvprs and now they say that Bin Reldy is being "crossed" by the men under him. Kid Mohler Is reported to De alter another berth, while "Flame" Delhi is accused of "dogging It." MANY OARSMEN WILL. ENTER Rowing Carnival at Peoria Is At tracting Much Interest. NEW YORK, July 29.

Fortmeyer, of the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen, re ports that the entries for the annual regatta, which decides the American championships, are coming In remark ably well, and that the rowing carnival at Peoria, 111., next week will prob ably be the best that the American public has ever seen. - Fred Putnam, general chairman of the Peoria Regatta Association, has been on a most successful proselyting expedition which took In practically every big rowing club east of Peoria that is a member ol the national association. Taylor Signs With Boise. CHEHALIS, Wash., July 29. (Spe cial.) L. G. Taylor, catcher of the Chehalis State League ball champions, left last night for Boise, Idaho, where he will get on in the Tri-State. Tay lor perhaps was the best catcher In the State League, his stick work also be ing a strong factor. At the close of the season he had the highest batting average of any man on the Chehalis team.

FLATER WILL BE RELEASED Angel Pitcher Obtained From Oaks Has Weak Arm. LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 29. (Spe cial.) "Jack" Flater, the right-handed pitcher whom the Angels procured from Oakland the first part of this season, is slated for release, according to re ports today. The release of Flater practically closes the famous Delmas case so far as the Angels are con cerned. Bert Delmas, who lor five - years played short for the Angels, turned out law this Spring. Delmas said he would not play with the Angels any more and the Oakland club traded back Flater to Los Angoles, Delmas giving them cause to believe that he would Join the northern team. Delmas never Joined them and he now Is managing the Modesto outlaws. Flater came south, but his arm was In bad shape. The wing had been painted with a heavy coat of iodine and the ligaments in his arm were dried up. He has not , been in the best of shape for a year. The Angels are planning to obtain the services of another pitcher. It is be lieved they will bring "Spider" Baum to this city, when they return. Baum should prove a winning pitcher for sev eral years with the Los Angeles club. He is dissatisfied with his berth at Sacramento. Recently he wanted to pur chase a cigar stand, but Charley Gra ham was against this move. Then de tectives were hired to watch Baum's movements to see if he stayed out late nights. Under these conditions Baum is not doing his best work, as his mind Is not at ease. PORTLAND MEN PUT OUT IRVINGTON AND MULTNOMAH TENNIS TEAMS BEATEN.
