BY WILL G. MAC RAE.
Bobby Groom was a wild man yes
terday afternoon and he shot 'em dov. 11
the alley so fast that the way between
the pitching box and the home piate
was hazy with smoke. Only twlcj did
he get himself In a hole; once he
pitched himself out and the next time
a double play; from Madden to Danzig,
tucked trouble away In the Ice box.
And while he was doing this, the best
that Oakland could do was to poke out
one stingy single and score a lone ace
In the hole. Truck F.agan came home,
because Raftery dropped his fly ball and
lit scored on Altman'e single, the only
one made off Groom.
Mr. Killian started for the Athenians
and like his former appeal ance on the
local playgroi-nd. he did not last the
Initial inning through. Have you ever
seen 'em play forget ball. Well, there
have been two games tnts week In
which forget ball was plavi. itadden
forgot to tur.i the trick the other day
that made poss'.bl3 his double yester
day. Yesterday ii was Ki'liaiic turn
to give us a touch of that very highly
oft-colored plav. Mr. KlUian walked
Cooney. Whe.i t cme to sending his
men to the firing line McCredie
s-vitched the batting order. Ryan came
Tier.t and Mr. Killian couldn't locate the
plate on him either. Raftery punked
one down that attracted the attention
cf hcth Altman and Mr. Killian. Raf
.ery was safe and Cooney took third
because Mr. Xllllan was bent on throw.
ins the ball t third. This filled the
sa'.Uns. ' '
Some More Forget AVork.
While McCredie was waiting for
something to turn up, Mr. Killian
heaved a wild pitch Into the forget
game. Cooney and Ryan registered
with dignity and ease. Raftery. in the
meantime, had taken third. Ills eagle
eye was open. He saw the nonchalant
air of both Mr. Killian and Slattery
and while both backs were turned to
the plate, Raftery broke all previous
records to the registering pan.
This was enough for Rip Van Hal
tren. He ran in from the garden and
shooed Mr. Killian to the rest cure
and put in Hardy. Hardy got rid of
McCredie Tnd Danzig in Jig time.
Bassey singled but Hardy made a wind
jammer out of Johnson and the fun
was over. Then followed a pretty
pitchers' duel. Twice Groom's wildness
filled the bases and it looked mighty
squally. In the second, with Kagan
and Slattery in pickle, he passed Hogan
and Altman and hit Cook. Groom was
the real killjoy for the sojourners
when he wlffed Hardy and retired the
side. In the third, he walked Van
Haltren and foozled Haley's approach
and when Heitmuller got on, the sacks
were bulging. Eagan hit Into a double
play, when he hit to Danzig. Babe
Winged the ball to Madden, nipping
Van Haltren at the plate, who then
fshot the ball to Danzig in time to
catch Kagan, who had loafed on the
way.
I.one Single Scores Run.
It was In the sixth that Raftery
dropped Kagan's Texas leaguer. A
wild pitch put him on third and he
scored when Altman made the only
clean single off Bobby. The next three
rounds found the Athenians trying and
at the same time failing. Taking ad
vantage of things In the sixth, Danzig's
single became a run. Bassey sent him
on his way with a sacrifice. He got
to third and Johnson's attempted
squeeze play so messed up Hardy that
he missed Danzig at the plate and also
missed fire on Johnson. One was all,
for the others could not gather any
moss. .
We always score in the eighth,
sometimes. Danzig was safe on a boot.
Bassey sacrificed him again and Babe
scored on Johnson's corking single to
left. Madden spanked a double to left
and Johnson scored, making the final
two. It was just here that Umpire
O'Connell announced to the anxious
and waiting multitude that San Fran
cisco had beaten Los Angeles and there
was a roar of joyful noise. The score:

tinctive Oregon City appearance, and
may' induce the fans to give the club
more support.
BOTH HE AND HIS WIFE ADMIRE
PORTLAND FLOWERS.
Will Name His Country Place "Rose
Villa Institute," and Go In for
Rose Culture.
Bob Fitzsimmons" famous physical cul
ture institute at Dunnelen, N. J., will
hereafter be known as The Rose Villa
Institute, for the pretty wife of the former
champion of the world has been converted
to the possibilities of beautifying the place
since her visit to Portland.
"Why, I have always believed that it
required a trained i-orlst to grow any
kind of roses," said Airs. Fitzsimmons,
by way of explanation, "but several of
our Portland friends have shown us their
gardens and also tnose of some of Port
land's leading citizens, and hereafter our
country home at Dunne. en, N. J., will
be known as the Kose Villa Institute. We
have arranged with several of our friends
in tnis city for the shipment of a large
number of plants of uilterent varieties,
which we will endeavor to raise at our
home."
The decision to raisa roses and beau
tify their home was reached after a
visit to ML Calvary Cemetery, where
Fitzsimmons went to pay tribute to the
memory of the late Jack Dempsey, whose
grave is located there. Fitz found the
last resting place of his old-time friend
sadly neglected, and Instead of witness
ing the monument he expected, expressed
himself as disappointed that a much
larger and more pretentious shaft had not
been set up. The sight of so many graves
with splendid varieties of roses growing
over the remains of the departed brought
forcibly to b. visitors the beauty and
possibilities of rose culture, and on their
return to the ritv, fitzsimmons and his
wife had occasion to visit the home of a
friend, who explained to them the care
and attention required to cultivate this
sturdy and beautiful uower.
Spcuking of Dempsey and his grave.
Fitzsimmons said: "There should be a
bigger monument than now marks the
resting place of poor old Jack. Why, I
believed that they had put up a shaft that
could be noticed, but that one is, only a
medium-sized piece of granite, . and not
any too good looking at that. And there
don't seem to be any care taken of the
grave at all. We pulled out a few of
the weeds and brushed off the headstone
a little."
At tins juncture Fltz was called out
for a short time, and his wife explained
that Bob secured a hoe and a spade from
the caretaker and cleaned up the grave
fairly well. Mrs. Fitzsimmons then spread
some floral offerings over the spot, after
which toe party returned to the city.
Mrs. Fitzsimmons, who was Julia May
Gifford before her marriage, and her hus
band are touring the Northwest on the
Pantages circuit. They contribute a neat
little sketch in the most pleasing man
ner. Mrs. Fitzsimmons gives several
high-class songs, while Bob winds up
their act with a bag-punc .ing exhibition.
They leave tonight for a week's stay at
Seattle, and expect to return to their
New Jersey home about the first of
August. This plan will be altered in the
evtnt that Fitzsimmons is successful in
securing a match with either Stanley
Ketcheli or Tommy Burns, either of
whom he believes he can defeat for the
middle-weight championship.
Again referring to the Portland roses,
before the Interview ceased, Mrs. Fitz
simmons remarked: "Why, I never be
lieved that real roses grew so large as
they do in Portland. I have a number of
artificial roses on one of my hats, and the
other day Robert brought a magnificent
red rose to me, and I thought it was a
paper affair, and was most agreeably
surprised when I found it to ba a real
one. Yes, our place snail hereafter be
known as Kose Villa, and we are go
ing to j.ave as many beautiful roses as
we can grow."

Leagues Planned.
TO BE FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Eastern, Western and Southern
Teams to Play Preliminary Scr
ies and Conic to the Coast
for the Finals.
CHICAGO, 111., June 13. (Special.)
Minor league baseball men ate seri
ously discussing a proposition to
match the winners In different organ
izations for a post-season series in the
Middle West and finals on the Pacific
Coast.
The matter was discussed at the New
York meeting and has been revived by
President O'Neill, of the Western
League, who is in the city today. Ha
received a letter from J. Cal Ewing,
president of the Pacific Coast League,
urging a Winter baseball plan.
Mr. Ewing wants the champions of
the Western League to play the cham
pions of the Southern organization, and
the American Association title-holders
to meet those of the Eastern League.
This will bring in all the Class A
bodies. The two winners of each series
would then take a trip to the Pacific
Coast to play the clubs there- In a Win
ter series to start about November 10
and run through until January.
Mr. O'Neill says he favors the plsn
and Pacific Coast men seem enthusias
tic and believe it will be a tr'jj test
of the playing qualities of the Class A
clubs of the country. '

Seattle 3; Butte 6.
SEATTLE, June 13. (Special.) Paddy
Welch pitched shutout ball today for

The Indians bunched their hits when the
Tigers bunched their errors, and today's
game developed into a farce, the Indians
winning 12 to 3. Franklin was given his
hardest drubbing of the season, while the
Tigers amassed their largest collection of
miscues. The Indians took advantage of
the Tigers' misplays and put up a clever
offensive game, also backing Jensen prac
tically perfect, Kippert's error being a
very difficult drive to gauge. James' ter
rific hitting was a feature. He got four
hits in five trips, for a total of seven
bases. An unusually fast double play on
a hard-hit ball, glancing on Jensen's glove
straight into James' hands,, thence to
Mackin to Hulen, was another notable
Incident. Umpire Carruthers was hit by
a batted ball and temporarily laid out,
but after a few moments he resumed

LA GRANDE, Or., June 13. (Special.)
The second of the Walla Walla-La
Grande series went to the home team
this afternoon in a fast, snappy exhibi
tion that teemed with class A ball. The
sheet stood three all in the last of the
ninth, when with two gone Houston
singled out a home run for La Grande,
winning the game. Houston was for
merly with Pendleton but was released
and taken up here two days ago. The
find was a fortunate one. La Grande
now has a percentage of .855, while the

MARSHAL ROUNDS MUST GO
Continued From First Pa.ge.1
Cooley today requested of United States
Marshal Ruel Rounds his resignation.
Neither Mr. Rounds nor Mr. Cooley
will be interviewed, but that the resig
nation was asked for and that Mr.
Rounds has so far refused to comply
has been verified.
The most serious charge against the
Marshal is that he packed the grand
jury which indicted Senator Berah.
It is the belief that he will also be
summarily dismissed and that Sheriff
Hodgin, of Ada County, will be named
to succeed him.
Three Applications are on file for the
District Attorney job. but there Is no
Indication as to who will be appointed
vet. They are G. H. Hansbrough,
Blackfoot: C. H. Lingenfelter, Lew
lston; G. G. Pickett. Moscow.
Bonaparte's Letter to Rulck.
Today Mr. Ruick made public the
letter from the Attorney-General, deliv
ered to him yesterday by Mr. Cooley,
asking for the resignation Mr. Ruick
refused to tender. It follows:
The correspondence between this de
partment and yourself during the month
of August. 1907, and the incidents attend
ing the indictment of Hon.. William E.
Borah and others, obtained by you in the
preceding month of April, caused, as you
were then notified, serious dissatisfac
tion, not only to the department, but also
to the President.
At the time it was deemed contrary
to the public interest to express this dis
satisfaction otherwise than to you per
sonally, until the conclusion of the trial
of Senator Borah: and the fact that Judge
Whitson held under advisement the pleas
in abatement founded on your alleged
excessive urgency before the grand jury
caused the department to regard action
on its part Implying a censure upon your
official conduct as Inappropriate prior to
a decision on his part as to the said pleas.
The views of the department having been
submitted to the President. I was in
structed to defer action In the premises
In accordance with my own judgment,
provided no further cause of reasonable
dissatisfaction should be found in the
meantime in the premises. In the last
mentioned contingency. I was further
instructed at Once to report the incident
so arising to the President.
Refused to Pay Old Debt.
Tt became my duty, therefore, to lay
before him the correspondence between
the department and yourself in the month
of March last, relating to the claim
against you of one S. J. Friedman, of
Halley, Idaho. This matter, as you are
aware, had been twice previously sub
mitted to this department, once in July,
1906. again in March, 1907. and finally,
as above stated, in February and March
last. While this department had been
careful to refrain from any action which
might tend to create the belief that It
could be used as an agency for the col
lection of debts or other claims from its
subordinates,' It has always unequivocally
indicated its view that a person who
failed to meet his legal obligations, with
out just reason or satisfactory excuse, is
unsuitable for public employment, and
that the debtor whose only defense Is a
plea of limitations should not be allowed
to remain In the service.
The decision of Judge Whitson was de
layed much longer than this department
had . anticipated and. when It was an
nounced, the ends of justice appeared to
require immediate action, with a view to
the further prosecution of the defendants
protected by that decision. Action with
respect to yourself was. for these reasons,
again postponed until the special counsel
sent by the department to conduct this
prosecution before the grand Jury should
have discharged their duty.
Resign for Good of Service.
Upon their return and. report the whole
subject was again laid before the Presi
dent and very carefully and deliberately
considered. With his approval, I now
write to say that, in the view of this de
partment, the public Interest demands a
change In the office of United States At
torney for the District of Idaho, and I
therefore, request your resignation, to
Jake effect Immediately, and to be placed
In the hands of Assistant Attorney -General
Cooley. who Is instructed to notify
the department immediately and by wire

SHOUT LIAR TILL TIRED
Lively Scenes In Session of Alaska
Central Railroad Directors.
SEATTLE, Wash.. June 13. (Spe
cial.) After calling each other "liars"
so many times that other stockholders
m the Alaska Central Railroad got
tired of keeping count, A. C. Frost, a
Chicago financier who is president of
the company, and John E. Ballaine, of
this city, original promoter and heavy
stockholder, quit a meeting of the
shareholders held in this city today,
vowing vengeance. The road is in the
hands of a reeclver on application of
Ballaine, who charged Frost with hav
ing sold company supplies and spent
the proceeds for his own benefit. Only
the presence of several shareholders
prevented a fist fight.
Frost charges that Ballaine's spite is
due to his refusal to pay him $10,000 a
year ago as expense monev In an effort
to sell the J4.000.000 corporation to
Eastern capitalists. Both sides will
tight for control when the road is sold
out, as It is more than half completed
to valuable coal and gold deposits in
Alaska. A motion by ex-Senator
George Turner that the president
take steps to end the receivership was
carried.

Prohibitionists Come Into Their Own
Xot by Own Efforts, but Be
cause of a Blunder.
"There is the biKgest aggregation of
'soreheads' In Prlncville these days that
ever came together to kick thmselves
or stuoidity," said .Tohn Smith, of
Crook County, at the Imperial Hotel yes
terday. "They Just sit around and stare
blankly at each other, , wondering how
it all came about. Not one man in 20
really wanted the town to go dry, yet
it went dry by three votes, and all over
the tight for sheriff.
"The Democratic candidate. Congleton,
leans toward prohibition, and his lieu
tenants at Prineville threatened a week
before election to send the city to the
drys if their candidate was not sup
ported. As this support was not prom
ised, they kept their word and voted
dry out of spite. Even the saloonmen
did the same, sacrificing their business
thereby. On the other hand the Repub
lican candidate. Elkins. imagined by the
Great stir created against him that the
election would be close, as It usually is,
and that the west end was threat
ened with total extinction by the
wet element there unless he could prom
ise a number of votes from Prineville
and the east end generally for prohibi
tion. This was a facer, but the promise
was given, much against his will, and
the word was passed to the big sheep
men of the east end that a prohibition
vote was the only thing that would
save Elkins.
"The sheepmen promptly swung their
herds into line and Sunday night the city
was filled with them. They stocked up
with a half-year's supply of 'red-eye,'
voted for prohibition next morning and
moved out of town. It was laughable
to witness their antics the night Before
election. They didn't want to vote dry,
it was against their principles, and they
had no hesitation about telling it, but
they voted dry Just the same.
"But Elkins was at no time unsafe.
Without making the slightest campaign
he could have carried the county by
200, and the wonder Is how he managed
to allow the prohibitionists of the west
end to scare him Into sacrificing his
best friends. Some enemies hanged him
in effigy on the morning of election, and
as the news spread over the county in
an hour, this little piece of vandalism.
It Is estimated, made him 15 more votes.
"The only really satisfied people are
the prohibitionists, who have at last
come into their own, not through their
own efforts, but due entirely to the
contest on the shrievalty, both sides
of which sacrificed and traded solely on
the saloon Interests. One of the Prine
ville butcher shops lost a J2."00 meat busi
ness1 with one of the hotels because
of prohibition tendencies, and all the
saloons, about equally divided between
the two candidates for sheriff, were ruth
lessly sacrificed by both. The saloon
men are naturally sore.
"If there had . been no fight on the
shrievalty the county would have gone
wet by . 50 votes."
