PLAY- IN HARD LUCK
Greengages Break to the Bad
With Butte,
WEEK AT HOME
DISASTROUS
Waraer Has Beea Farmed Out to
Boise City Teams Leave for
Taree Weeks' Trip in.
. ,, California.
This should be the Greengages day to
play even on the week's series with
Butte and with Lundbum In the box the
chances are that Grlm's men will take
the game this afternoon- The Swede
showed up well In Tuesday's game, and
seems to be the strongest man' ah the
pitching staff. Some changes have been
made in the line-up of the team during
the week. McCarthy, formerly with the
Tacoma Tigers, was signed, and Painter,
whe has been playing second, will be used
ae utility man. Warner, who has been
used In that capacity, has been farmed
out to Boise City. This change necessi
tated the shifting of Donohue to second.
Painter is a clever fielder, either In the
out or infield, on the team, and will prove
a valuable utility man. It Is rumored
that two players have to go, but no au
thoritative announcement to this effect
has yet been made. Quick has made
ood, although his pitching at home this
week has not been altogether satisfac
tory. The team leaves for Los Angeles
tomorrow night, and will open there
Tuesday for six games. From Los Ange
les they go to San Francisco, then back
to Los Angeles for another week. They
will then return home for another series
with San Francisco, commencing June 2.
Butte goes from here to Seattle for the
week, and then home for three games
with Spokane. "Piggy" Ward was taken
sick yesterday, and went to Seattle ahead
of the team.
The roofing of the grandstand has been
completed, .the field has been put into
good chape, and the next home series
should prove a success from a standpoint
of the game and financially. Manager
Grim is making an effort to provide his
patrons with good exhibitions and de
serves the support of the local fans.
"Slats" Davis always did have a good
heart and was always rather funny, but
his latest Joke is full of mirth which
"Slats" himself does not appreciate, but
which Joe Quinn does. He recently wrote
from Portland to Quinn describing in
brilliant terms the wonderous abilities, but
a pitcher In the Pacific League. .He told
Quinn that he could be secured for Des
Moines for the asking. The dodge Is an
old one. "Slats" wanted to see his friend
get a free ticket East, Quinn laughed
and sent the following telegram back,
collect: "Buy your friend a ticket home.
I am not handling gold bricks." Kansas
City Star.
In Wednesday's game against Butte a
Miner was on first base and Anderson,
seeing a chance to nip him, threw to
"Hlats" Davis. Davis back was turned
to Anderson and he turned Just in time
to make the catch. He did his usual
etunt of swing toward the cushion, but
the wily Miner fairly flew to second. A
couple of Greengages yelled their heads
off at the captain, but he was busy look
ing for the missing Miner. It was not
until some wit In the bleachers yelled,
"Look under the sack for him, Slats. "
that Davis looked up and saw the Butte
player contentedly roosting on second.
The weight for age that Captain
"Piggy" Ward carries with him has been
the cause of many a Joke at that clever
player's expense. The other day while
Butte was playing the Greengages a wo
man in the grandstand Inquired in a
shrill voice, "Who Is that soggy gentle
man playing at second base?"
Heiny Delscl wants it understood that
he holds the title to the championship
high throwing to first base. During the
series at Seattle Heiny gathered in a hot
grounder and threw it to Davis. He
did not throw the ball to, he threw it
u. Davis. The sphere, when It reached
the first station, was fully ten feet over
Davis head, and it never stopped until
It hit the top row of bleacher seats.
When the third baseman came to the
bench at the end of the inning Davis
congratulated him. upon his high throw.
The secret of "Tacks" Parrott's batting
streak Is out. Just before the team left
Portland some one told "Tacks" that if
he would sleep with his head pointed to
the east he would got his batting eye
back. Parrott has had all sorts of trouble
with hotel-keepers along the route, but
he has faithfully slept with his head to
ward the rtslng sun. Whether that
brought the batting streak back or not
It does not make any difference, for
"Tacks" has certainly been lacing.' the
Victor lately. No twirler is Immune from
his swatting, and Jt makes no difference
where they place their benders, for they
are jolted just the same. First he will
nail them so they land in right field.
Then when the outfielders get too thick
In that territory he plants them to left.
If he keeps up his stride ho will soon
lead the league in batting.
FIRST GAME3 FOR SALEM.
Senators Defeat Albany Bines by
Good Score.
ALBANY. Or.. May 9. (Speclal.)-The
Willamette "Valley Baseball League opened
the season in Albany today with a game
between the Salem Senators and the Al
bany Blues, the Capital City boys win
ning by a score of S to L Despite the
one-sidedncss of the score the game was
a pretty one, and hotly contested.
Six of the scores which put the Sena
tors to the good were made on errors In
the third, fourth and seventh innings.
"Until the eighth inning not a Blue had
crossed the rubber, and Indications were
good for a large and lugubrious horse-collar
in the opening game, but at this
period Whitney rapped out a two-bagger
and succeeded in scoring.
The battle was largely between the
pitchers, who twirled the horsehide to the
satisfaction of every one. Whitney sus
tained a sprained 'ankle In the eighth in
ning, which will keep him out of the game
for a couple of weeks. A large crowd
witnessed the game.

Roseburg lost control In th latter part
of the game.
Rngrged Baseball at Wasco.
WASCO. Or., May 9. (Special.) Wasco
defeated Moro again today on the home
grounds. The game was a -very ragged
exhibition of baseball. J. Meyer and
Msach were both batted very freely, and
tSe error column was replete with figures.
At the end of the fifth Inning the game
stood 10 to' 2" In favor of Wasco, but in
the next two innings J. Mej-er was batted
hard and Calif relieved him the first of
the eighth and held the visitors down to
one hit. Meach pitched good ball.
The latter half of the- game Saunders
made a beauuul steal home from third
while Brodemeyer and Meyer were con
cocting signs for shoots and benders not
ten feet from the home plate. Moro was
handicapped by the absence of their
catcher. Shea, who was substituted by
Ball. Score. 11 to 9.

PORTLAND ACADEMY WINS.
Heavy Batting: Defeats Portland High
School 10 to 1.
Portland Academy pounded out a 10-to-l
victory against the High School on Mult
nomah Field yesterday afternoon. For
eight Innings the score was a shutout,
but in the last of the ninth Magnus made
first on an error, was sacrificed to second,
stole third and came home on a wild
pitch, thus chalking up a single tally for
the High School team.
Cersanous, who twirled for the Cardi
nals, was touched up for nine hits by
the academy lads. Including two three
baggers and a double. This slugging, to
gether with several unfortunate errors,
allowed the academy players to pile up a
run every inning.
Stott was in his old place behind the bat
for the academy, and caught with his
usual excellence. Vernon, for the High
School, also did the backstop work in most
creditable shape, and his nailing of Chal
mers In the third as the academy captain
was trying to make home was neat.
Adams made a sensational one-handed
catch in the seventh, and was rewarded
with the cheers and vociferations of the
large crowd of the fair sex that filled the
front seats in the grandstand:
The academy team played better ball
than at any time this, season, tobugh it
was a trifle slow. The High School played
well, with the exception of a few bad. er-'
rors in handling the hall In the infield.

CHALLENGER WINS EASILY.
Shamrock III Ontpolnts and Out
reaches the Old Craft.
LONDON. May 9. The challenger beat
Shamrock I by minutes 6 seconds over
about 13 miles today.
The course was from Gourock around
marks at Powder buoy. Hunter's Quay
and Skelmorelle. The wind blew about
eight knots and was strengthening.
The start, which was Informal, took
place at 10:30. Both yachts carried club
topsails. Shamrock I led wide to windward
of the challenger. Before a mile was
covered, however, the challenger had
worked to windward and had drawn level
with the older boat. Captain Wringe
then eased Shamrock .III, with the object
of giving the boats an even start on the
long run to leeward from Powder buoy,
which was turned as follows:
Shamrock III. 10:42:45.
Shamrock I, 10:42:53.
Spinnakers were then set and the Sham
rocks started down channel to Skelmore
lle, the challenger opening a way steadi
ly. Once fairly set going Shamrock III
ran away from her opponent In great
shape and they passed Gourock as fol
lows: Shamrock III. 10:59:30.
Shamrock I. 11:00:50.
The old boat brought up a better wind
and was closer off Bullwood. There the
wind drew southerly, spinnakers were
taken In and the boats fetched down on
the port tack.
After passing Lunderston Bay the
yachts squared away for Rothesay Bay,
and It was soon evident that the plans of
the morning had been changed. The
boats were not racing, but were merely
sallstretchlng. In Rothesay Bay club top
sails were exchanged for working top
sails and a fresh start made. On the re
turn Journey the old boat took the wind
ward berth and had a decided lead, but
abreast of Lochlong the challenger sailed
through Shamrock I's lee and was 13 sec
onds ahead at Gourock Pier.
During a series of informal spins the
Shamrock III was apparently able to take
the lead whenever Captain Wringe de
sired. Subsequently the yachts started
on another spinnaker run. Off Greenock
Esplanade the Shamrock I had a half mile
lead, but the challenger passed her In a
little over a mile. The challenger's gear
ing stretched during the trials.
The yachts ultimately were sent off on a
real racing trial. The challenger out
pointed, out-ran and out-reached the older
boat. They ran first with spinnakers to
Cloch. five miles, and the Shamrock HI
caught her opponent and led her quite a
quarter of a mile at this point. The boats
were then broad reached to Skelmorlle
buoy. The wind was a trifle unsteady
and the challenger was rather better
served. She beat Shamrock I hollow,
turning the Skelmorlle end of her nine
mile soli nearly 11 minutes ahead. Reach
ing back up channel to Cloch the challeng
er further Improved until she was two
miles ahead.
The finishing stretch was by the wind,
and the challenger continued to open a
way and scored a decisive victory

BROWNS ARE HAPPY
Hoodoo Is Slaughtered and
They Play Great Ball.
SHORTSTOP RAIDY ALL RIGHT
Catcher Harlbart Has Helpedt
Start Winning: Streak Oakland
Will Be the Victims
This Week;
The week Just past has been & happy
one, not only for the Portland fans, but
also the Browns. In the closing games
with Los Angeles it was noticeable that
the Pacific Coasters were slowly but sure
ly rounding into shape. Each game they
played they tightened the score, they were
batting better and Just as soon as Raldy
got in the game and that woeful gap at
short was filled, things certainly began
to sit up and take notice. Another thing
which has tended to make the Browns get
out and play baseball for their lives was
the loyalty of the fans. While some of
the players were scolded and there was
some knocking, on the main Portland has
witnessed some exceedingly good baseball.
The Seattle players struck a great win
ning streak while In Portland, and they
carried It home with them. They gave
the Saints a hard rub and left them In
fine fettle for Los Angeles, and Parke Wil
son's men spiked Captain Dillon's win
ning career. Captain Irwin brought his
balltossers to Portland and started to
duplicate the trick turned by the Loo Loos.
The start was all right, but the finish
broke for the Browns. This week Pete
Lohman with his last year's pennant win
ners will Invade Portland. Pete's crew
are four games away from the Browns,
and the battle this woek between the
two tall enders will be one worth see
ing. The Browns have started their win
ning, and if hz y keep up their stride they,
will not only capture the series from
Oakland but they will take a fall out of
Mlque Fisher's Senators the week follow
ing. Fisher and Lohman have been fight
ing it out at San Francisco, with Fisher
getting a shade the best of the spoils of
war.
Raldy and Hurlburt have been great ad
ditions to the Browni.. Both men jumped
Into the game with but little practice. In
fact, the uniform that Raldy put on In
Portland was the first ho had worn this
season. The fans watched him with criti
cal eyes and his actions suited. Then
when he began to play they were soon
satisfied that he knew the game. He
made errors. Who wouldn't in that diffi
cult pivot of the game? The little fellow,
however, went right after things In a business-like
and matter-of-fact way that
soon captured the most cynical. The fans
knew that he was suffering from sore
muscles and they forgave him when he
made his fumbles and bad throws. In the
last three games the new addition has
shown his speed and sameness and, as
predicted, both Anderson and Andrews,
now sure that the territory at short Is
being looked after properly, are playing
better baseball.
Hurlburt Is of course only lent to the
Browns for a week, but he has won a
warm spot for himself among the local
fans and also the members 'of the team.
His true throwing arm has been a dead
shot for base-stealers. He was a bit off
In gathering in fouls at first, but It was
because- he could not correctly Judge dis
tances. Then, too, he caught his first
game for the Browns since his arrival on
the Coast. Since Joining Morley. Hurlburt
only played In two games, and on those
occasions he played first base. Hurlburt,
in addition to running bases like a quar
ter horse, can hit the ball in splendid
style, and all times handles himself like
a baseball player. When he starts to make
a play he does It after the most improved
fashion, and there are very few false
moves to his work.

It was thdught she was trying to get ready
to give the Reliance a brush.
When the Reliance left her anchorage,
however, the Constitution did not follow.
Instead, she was taken In tow by her

EXHIBIT FROM THE ORIENT
Barrett Will Give Advice, bat Can
not Take Change.
John Barrett, who has represented the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition In the
Orient and arranged for the exhibits from
the far East countries, which will be made
at the St .Louis fair, will be In Portland
Monday.
Mr. Barrett is coming here to confer
with the directors of the Lewis and Clark
Fair, relative to their campaign in the
Orient. He was asked a few weeks ago to
take charge of the work of collecting ex
hibits from the Oriental countries, but
Mr. Barrett has Just notified the Lewis
and Clark Commission that It will be im
possible for him to assume that work.
His contract with the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition prevents his participation In
the Lowis and Clark Exposition.
In a telegram addressed to Henry Reed,
secretary of the Lewis and Clark Exposi
tion, Mr. Barrett explained yesterday that
he would gladlj give the Portland officials
the benefit of his experience in the Orien
tal countries and aid them In their cam
paign In whatever manner possible,
though not able to take charge of this
branch of the Exposition work.
The officials of the Lewis and Clark Ex
position have under way a project for ob
taining a number of exhibits from the
Oriental countries. The plan of obtaining
a Philippine exhibit has been suggested,
and particular attention to the women's
work of the Island people Is urged. Steps
have already been taken to Insure a cred
itable exhibit from Japan, and the United
States Consul at Niu Chwang, In the cen
ter, by the way, of the Russian demon
stration in Manchuria, has volunteered to
take up the work In China. The empire
of Korea will make an exhibit at Port
land, if it is so desired, and the Exposition
officials are confident they will be able to
make an excellent showing of Oriental
work.
To complete" it all and to arrange for
many details that have not yet been cov
ered, the services of Mr. Barrett were
sought. Since he will be unable to do the
actual work, the Exposition officials will
ask him for his advice, and this he has
already assured them he will cheerfully
give. When Mr. Barrett arrives on Mon
day, he will be greeted by members of the
official family of the Exposition, and Is
apt to spend the day going over the
ground.
The Exposition officials spent yesterday
upon work connected with the coming
visit of President Roosevelt. The details
lor that part of the President's reception
which belongs strictly to the Lewis and
Clark Exposition, have not yet been com
pleted, but will be ready for the general
reception committee early next week. Out
at the City Park Superintendent Huber
has broken ground "for the cornerstone of
the Lewis and Clark monument and
grandstand. This, it is assured, will be
ready In time.
An invitation was sent out yesterday to
a number of prominent vocalists to form
the chorus for the Presidential ceremon
ies. The list of vocalists Is not complete,
and many who possess good voices may
have failod to receive letters of invitation.
The Exposition committee Is extremely
anxious that such should consider that
the Invitation was general In its char
acter, and Join the others in making a
success of the occasion. The following
letter of Invitation is expected to apply
to any one who can sing:
You are hereby invited to participate in
the rendition of the "Hallelujah Chorus"
on Thursday afternoon. May 2L 1903, In
honor of the President of tne United
States and the laying of the corner-stone
of the Lewis and Clark monument In the
City Park.
Please extend Invitations to , all those
you are associated with in a musical way,
as It Is desirable to have as large a rep
resentation as possible.
The first rehearsal will be held Monday
evening. May 11. at 8 P. M., at the Taylor
Street Methodist Church, corner Third.
Respectfully yours.

Bat Trading: Now Continues at a Low
Ebb Market Saturday Quiet
and Heavy.
NEW YORK, May . Desultory profes
sional trading was all that was In evi
dence In today's stock market. The tone
was heavy throughout and traders pro
fessed considerable apprehension over the
outcome of the situation in Manchuria.
The bank statement was also a disap
pointment, as the gain In the cash re-,
serves was only about half the amount
expected from the reports of the known
movements of money. The loan Increase
of over J9.000.000 was ascribed to the con
tinued transfer of debts from foreign to
domestic lenders, which has kept up the
rate of exchange during the week to the
gold export point. The question of outgo
of gold next week Is. left open, as money
and discounts were Ann today In Lon
don and the exchange market kept a
firm tone in spite of the dull Saturday
market.
The special heaviness shown by such
speculative leaders as St. Paul, Southern
Pacific, Atchison, Missouri Pacific, New
York Central and Amalgamated Copper
was attributed to operations by a bear
faction which was designed to Influence
sentiment in the general market. The
selling of Rock Island was accompanied
by surmises as to the effect on the mar
ket of the additional Issues of stock in
volved In the St. Louis & San Francisco
acquisition. A 4-point break In Metro
politan Securities tended to aggravate the
depression to rfome extent. There was
no perceptible power In the market, and
the closing was easy at about the lowest.
There was some selling of bonds, which
made that department easy.
The immediate Influence upon the nar
row movement of prices In the stock
market have been of. minor importance.
Considerations which really dominate the
market for securities are of wider range
and extended so far into the future as to
prompt a waiting attitude rather than ac
tive operations. Speculation is repressed
and at times almost stagnant, with the
uncertainty of the problem tp be worked
out In the financial world during the com
ing. Summer and Fall. The condition of
the money market Is so easy now as to
afford relief from any pressure of liquida
tion. The scarcity of the supply of
stocks makes a constant temptation to
the professional operators to work for an
advance. But they foil to attract any
Interest In the market, and the occasional
attempts to take profits demonstrate that
they are practically one on the buying
side. Speculation is in consequence little
more than a game between traders, in
which the most subtle wins at the ex
pense of his fellows. The bulls made a
demonstration for an advance early In the
week with the high-priced coalers lead
ers. The railroad earnings generally, as re
ported this week, have shown some strik
ing gains, both in gross and net earn
ings, over the corresponding period of
last year. These showings have been ef
fective In some individual stocks in lift
ing prices. In other cases they were
totally Ignored. The fluctuations In the
copper and silver markets have been the
occasion of some speculation in the Mex
ican railroad stocks and in Amalgamated
Copper. Anxiety over the possible harm
to the wheat crop has become somewhat
allayed by the Weather Bureau's weekly
bulletin and by the liquidation evident in
the wheat market. The admitted dam
age to fruit and to cotton has had some
depressing effect. The Government
monthly report Is awaited for more com
prehensive knowledge of the condition of
the "Winter wheat crop. The proposed
amalgamation of the Rock Island and the
St. Louis & San Francisco systems has re
apepared as a factor. The mystery still
maintained by the mover in the nlan and
the mixed views held as to Its effect have
deprived It of great stimulating effect.
The unrest in the labor world Is seen
to be of far-reaching consequence. There
Is nqt so much fear of unsettlement by
strikes as of the constant rise In cost of
operation of Industry and the consequent
reduction of net earnings available for
distribution to shareholders. Reports from
the vest of decreases In freight traffic
of the railroads is attributed to the un
willingness of manufacturers to expand
their operations In the present state ot
uncertainty over the labor outlook. In the
Iron market trade authorities report a
weak tone for foundry Iron and a state
of deadlock between buyers and sellers,
pending the settlement of the price level
for future business.
the present ease of money has not ob
scured the problem of the future require
ments in that field. The large loan ex
pansion by the New York banks In the
face of the stagnation of speculation in
stocks is regarded as slgnlflcent of the
demands overhanging the money market.
The recent large repayments tf our for
eign obligations are demonstrated by this
domestic loan expansion not to be an
effective liquidation, but simply a trans
fer of obligations from foreign to domes
tic leaders. Attention Is attracted to vari
ous syndicate underwriting and corpora
tion loan requirements, which are to be
met, and which will necessitate the con
servation of money requirements if dis
turbance Is to be avoided. The course
of foreign, money markets has to be con
sidered as well, and the sustained strength
of the exchange market this week near
the gold-export point keeps alive the Im
mediate Interest In the question. The Is
sue of the 51EO,O00.O0O Transvaal loan
easily explains the immediate direction of
capital towards London. But the subse
The agonizing Itching and barnlsg of
the sldn as in eczema; the friehtfal
scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of half
and crusting of the scalp, as in scalled
head; the facial disfigurement, as in
pimples and ringworm; the awful suf
fering of infants, and anxiety of worn
out parents, as in mile crust, tetter and
salt rheum, all demand a remedy oi
almost superhuman virtues to success
fully copo with them.. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Resolvent are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. No
statement Is made regarding them that
Is not Justified by the strongest evi
dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford Immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent cure,
the absolute safety and great economy
have made them the standard skin cures
of the civilized world.
quent course of the world's money mar
kets remains a subject of conjecture. Re
ports from Germany indicate a growing
use for money there, owing to the passage
of the long-sustained industrial crisis and
a' reawakening ot trade. The condition of
foreign money markets will be of Import
ance to this country during the coming
crop-moving period, as It is generally ex
pected that resort will be had to those
markets by American bankers for credits
on a large scale. The present restraint
upon speculation In New York Is accepted
with satisfaction, except in the offices of
brokers and professional operators in
stocks, whose prosperity Is dependent on
active dealings and rapid .movements in
prices qf stocks. The general tone is
hopeful of the future stability of values,
In spite of dull trading In stocks.
The tone of the bond market Is rather
better than that of stocks, and reflects
a moderate investment demand for well
secured mortgages offering a good return.
