The 'pope "IhaVes pressed el deatre 'to see the principal archblshopa and bishop of America, In order, 'ays it Tribune dispatch from Heme, to discuss personally the best means of carrying on hie project of decentralization, by which several at tributes of the cngregatlon of the prop agenda will be transferred to Cardinal Gibbons, who, in turn, will delegate to the archbishops of the several ecclesi astical provinces a large quantity of business now dealt with by the propa ganda. This. It is believed, can be car lied on with greater competence by the local authorities, especially that part relating to all matters of differences between ecclesiatics and their bishops.

Between the 10 and 15-yard lines 'the teams struggled desperately, but 'the Astorians were solid and the Indiana lost the ball without making one , gain. ' The nome - entnusiasts breathed a sigh of relief as the Com mercial team, confident '' of its own ability, commenced working the sphere back by end runs and cross-tackle bucks. j Graham's Trick Play. The right end of Commercial's line was providing wonderful Interference for Barker and he was twice sent around for long gains. The first net ted 16 yards, 'and then came the run that would have brought a touchdown had not the excited spectator spoiled things. The next play showed up lit tle ."Roxie" Graham in his true colors and' elicited warm applause for that plucky back. Quarterback Stockton calleJ for a cross-tackle buck, and Graham, on receiving the ball, started to go around - Chemawa's right end. He found his Interference blocked, how ever,; and, backing out of the mixup, he made for the left end of Chemawa's line. Almost before the Indians real ized what had happened Graham ad vanced the. ball 35 yards. - Commercial steadily advanced the ball to the Che ma wa ,17-yard line, where the locals losjt the sphere on downs. : Foster Badly Hurt. Chemawa then 'resorted to tandem work, but was able to accomplish but little with Its mass plays. Foster, Che mawa's left end, started around with the ball and was tackled by Abercrom- ble, both men slipping and falling. The Indian fell undermost and the Com mercial fullback dropped on hira with his full weight The force of the fall was centered on Foster's neck,, and he was "incapacitated for the rest "pf the game. Decker was put In to fill hie place, . Stockton's superb tackling saved much ya?(Iag n the next pky, although Chemawa succeeding in forc ing, the ball to the Astoria 10-yard line Where It changed hands on a fumble. Barker went around for 15 yards, and on ' the third 40w thereafter "Aber cromble punted to the iS-yard line. Stockton had followed tip the pUnt and prettily downed the Chemawa back just as the ball feli Into his hands This was one of the most satisfactory features of the game. J Astoria held Chemawa for two downs', and on the third, when Chemawa was forced to punt, Bay broke through the line and blocked the kick In perfect style. Sut ton fell en the ball, and then Com mercial began working the sphere to wards the Indian goal line. By end runs and line-bucks the ball was car ried down to the 10-yard line, where Chemawa's forwards held fast. Che mawa punted 20 yards, and on the next play Astoria was penalized 20 yards. A quarterback kick was successfully essayed at this Juncture, and when time was called for the first half the ball was on the Chemawa 12-yard line. Score, 0-0. , Barker's Long Run. Throughout the first half Barker had made several long runs, thanks to the perfect interference of Graham; Regan and Gamma), and the crowd was anx iously awaiting for him to go around the end for a .touchdown. The ex pectation was realized soon after the second half opened. Commercial kicked off to the 25-yard line, and on the third down Chemawa was forced to punt. Barker and Graham mnrto substantial gains, ' but Abercrombie was compelled to punt, the ball Koing down to Commercial's 20-yard line. On the very first play by the Commercial team Barker made his sensational run, Otrnham, Regan and Stockton furnish ing the Interference and clearing the way hile the speedy back sped to waro. tne Indians' goal line. The run Wiusbout 90 yards long, and when Barker had planted , the . ball- behind the goal posts the wildly enthusiastic crow rushed upon the field and lifted Barker high In the. air. The nerve. raking experience, was responsible- ""for his failure to kick the goal. Chemawa's Hard PlghtV wnwnawa naa scored against the Multnomah' team, ian after Barker's long -run worked desperately to tie up the, score: , , Fierce work followed, every man, Jjejug , in, every play Dur ing -the mixes which ensued the great strength or Gammel, Commercial's fearless guard,' was plainly demon strated.; Signals for a line-buck would pile up 20 men in a huge ball, and at such times Gammel, placing his should ers against the mass of humanity struggling for possession of the ball and yardage, would shove the entire aggregation before him. Half a dozen times the teams mixed up in this man. ner,, and in every Instance the Hercu lean guard's great strength gave the advantage to Astoria.' I 8tockWs Great Run. " Unable to make any material gains by Ilrte-bucklng or end runs, the In dians resorted to punting. The Com. merclals, satisfied to ease off for a few minutes, returned the punt on the third down, and Chemawa again punted This time the hall went to Stockton on Commercial's 26-yaro' fifThcr "wai not a Commercial man within? 20 ysxda . of the quarterback, but he started along- the sideline with the sphere under bis arm. Two of the Indians made for him, but he downed both with the , straight-arm and -continued bis flight. Then anothen Chemawan undertook to stop his run, but again Stockton's long arm went out and again an Indian went down. A similar fate befell the fourth man to try to. tackle. . Saunders, who . has the reputation ot being one of the two best football players on the coast, and Whose massive frame Is hard as steel, was the fifth man in the path- way of the tricky quarterback. " As Stockton advanced Saunders crouched, smiling grimly at the prospect of spoil ing the run ot the man whom he af terwards referred to as a "straw.'' As Stockton reached Saunders the Indian tried to tackle, but once more the long arm went out and Mr.' Saunders went sprawling . behind, while the' crowd cheered miijhtily. For 20 yards Stock ton had a clear field, but on the Che mawa 35-yard line Decker succeeded in downing him. The run, which was made without .assistance from any of the Commercial players, was pro nounced one of the finest ever seen on a football gridiron.'''' w j ' After this the ball was in Chemawa territory. Graham distinguishing him- . self by several fine runs. Two, (juar. back kicks one of. the. most diffi cult playB on the football field ere attempted 1 by the Commercials, the first proving very successful and the second sending; the ball out of bounds. After some punting the teams settled , down to line-bucking, and when time was called the sphere was in the middle of the field.,: Score, 5-0. . ; " A Great Game. - j' The game was pfyneunced by expert -enced football enthusiasts to have been one of the finest ever played on a coast field. Ha the Aral half Saunders1 vast pitted against Sutton at tackle, but ia the second half filled the position of fullback,, In the line he accomplished much for Chemawa, but when sent back was unable to make good. The easterners' Ih Chemawa's line, of whem much was expected1; fdiiiiil their mas ters among the Commercials', Whdite rather lame team work yesterday was the only fault tq have been found with them. , , ; " One can not well appreciate the work of Abercrombie who docs not view the game from a position behind the As toria line. Ills is not a spectacular game, but he is a veritable battering ram. Bay Is likewise irresistible, and on ever;' play yesterday smashed the Indian's line and opened it up for the backs. Abercrombie, Graham and Barker hive been a great combination behind the line, and at critical times have never failed. Fainter is perhaps the fiercest flayer on the Commercial team. When he tackles nis wnoie strength goes Into the play, an against Godwin yesterday he filled his new position well. Sutton Is full of grit, and after receiving a severef out over the eye continued to play a speedy trame. The' blood from the wound blinded him at times, but a convenient enthusiast, with a bucket of water and a towel, bathed away the blood at short periods und mado it possible for the tackle to stay In the game. Gammal and Goddard handle the guard posi tions beautifully,' both men being of great strength.' Regan, who went In at end yesterday to make good the loss of Mlnard, played a fast game and sur prised those who had followed the work of the team. ,HIs condition 4was not right for the hard struggle," but he plucklly stuck it outl Trulllnger, at the other end, had about all of Com merclars hard liiek, but his Wkling was fierce."' 'He repeatedly slipped and fell at times when he had a chance to do good work. fifwil Testerday's game was the sixth played by Commercial jand not. one has been lost. Stevens fluked out a score against Commercial that should never have been allowed, the player scoring having run put of bounds to make the touchdown;' but otherwise ' thek'"team was not scored against. Next year Harry Graham' will b back at the game, and, with other promising ma terial, the team will be In shape to go, after the coast championship. Yester day's, victory for Commercial puts , the. . northwest championship between the Astoria and Multnomah teams, but the teams will 1 probably not get-together) t ri! m Multnomah's dates are' this season all filled. Good Weather has helped the sport and financially (he season was successful. , ., -,,- With ihe exception of the 'tug Tat-,'1' f oosh going down to the bar, there was t,.. not a movement on the river yester- . day. The pilot on the tug was unable ' to sight a single sail outside, so the 1 ' tug made a quick return to the city. 1 J 3 K iv V
