f SEATTLE. June 27. Pettlgrow wi
the real thing at The Meadows yester
day afternoon. About every other heavy
bettor who went to the track had Pet-
tlrrew for a rjaJ. live, bottled-up, lead
tilpe.elnch. The strangest part of nil
was that Pcttlgrew delivered the goods,
I When the cards went up for the first
vent the bookies posted 4 to 1 against
the good thing. Then came the ava
lanche. The money went Into the books
by tens, fifties and hundreds, the crowd
In tKe betting ring fighting for a hcance
to sret'on before the odds were cut. The
ndds were cut. and cut hard, but that
made no difference. The money con
tinued to pour in and at post time 5 to
i was the best that was offered against
the' horse. He won as he pleased and
the books cashed something like $8,000
worth of winning tickets.
I. O. U. furnished the surprise of the
&y In the third rare. The horse got
way at least three lengths to the bad
nd was- last all the way up the back
stretch. He moved up a little, coming
around the turn and when he turned Into
the straight he began to make his bid
for the money. One by one he cut
down the leaders and In a magnificent
finish came under the wire a winner by
a short nose from Legal Maxim, the
favorite. I. O. U. was 7 to 1 in the
betting.
Iras was made the medium of a heavy
play in the slx-furlong event, being
hacked down from 4 to 1 to 2 to 1.
She won in a common canter.

SHAMROCK III. ON TRIAL
TRAINED ON "FUDGE'
(Journal Special Service.)
ELMIRA, N. Y June 27. "Fudge"
and chocolate sodawater constituted the
training diet of Helen Downes, the El-
mlra College girl, who won more laurels
in the field-day events here recently
nd who already holds the college record
for girls In various branches of athletics.
Miss Downes, .who will bo graduated
this year, Is a rosy-cheeked maiden of
slight build, five feet three Inches in
height. While she was getting herself
into condition she ate not only the
delectable confections mentioned, but
the .ordinary solid fare of meat and po
tato ana she observed no training
hours.
Some of her achievements at the
spring sports of last year were putting
the shot 50 feet, clearing the broad jump
in 12 feet 6 inches, making the 100-yard
dash in 14 seconds, the 60-yard hurdles
in 7 seconds, the 75-yard hurdles in 12 H
seconds and winning the pole vault, mak
ing a new feminine record in each in
stance. At thl recent meet Miss Downes ran
60 yards in 6 1-5 seconds, did the 40
yard hurdles in 6 seconds flat and cov
ered, the 75-yard dash in 9 2-.S seconds,
all of, which either equaled or beat iier
own figure of last year.

(Journal Special Service.)
HELENA, Mont.. June 27. All
are turned toward Tacoma, where on
June 29 the Pacific National League di
rectors will meet. As has -been pub
lished In- these columns, there can be
no reasonable doubt as to the outcome
of the meeting. From sources which
are considered authorltlve, it is learned
that the plan is to divide the league,
and that the change will be made after
the July 4 games.
Common rumor has it that the Port
land club Is to be transferred to Salt
Lake, and with Seattle, Tacoma, Spo
kane,- Helena and Butte, constitute the
northern end of yie division. Clubs
are to be installed at Sacramento and
Oakland to. fight the Callfornlans. In
this way expenses will be minimised.
Many people are disposed to believe
that Helena, having secured a five-years'
membership, cannot lose Its lease of
life so long as the league remains In
tact, but this Is not the case. The di
rectors, by a three-fourths vote, can
expel or transfer a club at will. Inas
much, however, as Helena is putting
up a much better game than at first,
and the attendance is picking up, It is
not regarded as probable that Helena
will lose out. Another argument In
favor of Helena Is that its deficit Is
met by local patrons and not by the
other clubs, ns Is the case with Port
land, and it la a well-known fact that
the club treasury has been called upon
to meet the losses. In the city on the
banks of the Willamette.
Why Planner? Quit.
It was pathetic to see Jack Flannery
play ball with an opposing team. One
of the reasons for Klannery resigning
the managership of the' locals was be
cause of the Inability to get along with
Thompson and Clark, whom he termed
"sulkers." Before the first game Thomp
son said he would throw his arm off.
but what he fanned "the wild Irish
Mick." Flannery swore that he would
bat "the baby Norwegian" out of the
box. Thompson fanned Flannery twice,
and poor old Jack would invariably
start to toss his bat back to the Helena
bendi. But Flannery was on the win
ning side, nevertheless, and by a hard
run, robbed Thompson of a two-bagger
that would have won the game for
Helena.
Viatip Carnival.
The fistic carnival at Butte next week
will outshine even that of Miners' Union
Day. Three champions within three
days will be a record for Montana
These are Tommy Ryan, Joe Walcott and
Joe Gans. Ryan and John Wlltle will
clash on the night of June 30 at Sut
ton's Opera House In a 20-round go.
Ryan" is generally believed -to be the
winner, but all acknowledge that Wiltle
will give the middlewelghter a run for
his money. Tom O'Rourke, the noted
New York sporting man. goes contrary
to public opinion and can see nothing
but Wlltle. He said: "Wiltle is the
toughest man in the business, and
think he Is the boy to take the cham
pionship honors away from Ryan."
Joe Walcott, the "Black Demon," will
meet Mose Lafontlse at the Broadway
Theatre on the night of July 3. If
Walcott does what the-people know he
la capable of doing he should best the
Montana champion welterweight, but
after Walcott's poor showing in his
recent Portland engagement, many Mon
tanans are inclined to favor the French
man.
. On the afternoon of July 4 at the old
Ball Park Joe Gans will take on Buddy
King of Denver, who is heralded as a
comer. This fight will be the stellar
attraction. Gans. of course, is the
favorite, but King is not without friends
and the outcome Is awaited with interest.

TACOMA. June 27 The directors of
the Pacific National Lengun will meet
In this city next Monday evening as
the result of a call Issued last week by
President Lucas. Considerable con
Jecture has been sroused as to the ob
ject of the National League ofllrlnls in
calling this meeting, anil Mr. Luras sod
his friends have kept very silent re
gardtng Its true purpose.
The most that Lucas has admitted is
that certain conditions- have arisen
which make It necessary to consider
plans for better carrying on the war
against the Pacific Coast League. That
these conditions have to do with Port
land and the financial showing made by
the National League club In that city
Is not denied. In fact. It Is conceded
that one of the questions which must
be answered by the directors next Mon
day Is "Shall we get out of Portland T"
If it is decided to transfer Grim's
team from the Oregon city to another
city, Salt Lake, for Instance, it will
be an emphatic victory for the Coast
League. Portland was one of the cities
In which Lucas wished to make his
strongest fight against the opposition,
and because of his personal relations
with several Portland business men
closely connected with the Browns In
that city he felt especially anxious to
be the winner in the fight for the gate
receipts. But pride must be sacrificed
when the ibeketbook begins to suffer,
and the leaders of the National League
are objecting to going down In their
pockets to maintain the Portland Na
tional League club, as they have been
doing almost since the season started.
A large share of the stock In the club
was floated outside of Portland In the
first place, and since then the salaries
of Grim's tall-end team have been paid
out of the league treasury.
Condition of Affairs.
This Is the condition of affairs which
Mr. Lucas has been called upon to face.
It Is possible that no change will be
made in the circuit this season and this
Is what Lucas, McCloskey and a few
others strenuously assert, but at the
same time there Is a strong probability
that the demand from Montana for a
change which will better the finances of
the league may bo acceded to, and if
the request of Helena Is complied with.
Salt Lake City will be substituted In
Lucas' league for Portland. The Helena
club is In bad condition, financially. It
lost $2,700 last yenr, and It Is said to
be much more deeply Involved this sea
son. The story Is tnat a representative
of Salt Lake City will be present at
the meeting Monday with a guarantee
and an application for admission to the
league and that the Invitation to this
representative was issued by Helena
without the knowledge of the other
clubs of the league.
At the meeting of the Pacific North
west League last fall Salt Lake City
was turned down cold, but the Utah
town Is again clamorous for admission,
and many of the most enthusiastic sup
porters of the league are favoring a
change that will bring that city into the
league. If It is accomplished. Buck
Weaver, now playing with McCloskey
will be manager of the new, team and
Grim will probably be out of a Job.
In any event, there will be many
transactions of interest at next Mon
day's meeting. The directors will com
pare losses and some expressions of dis
satisfaction will be long and loud. A
few more changes In the schedule may
also be made. The most recent change,
by which Los Angeles plays In Seattle
and San Francisco in Tacoma on Fourth
of July week, instead of returning home
is explained away by the same old story
which accounted for the sudden trans
fer of the Portland and Tacoma clubs
from Los Angeles and San Francisco to
Portland. It Is said that the San Fran
cisco grounds are not yet in shape for
play, although work was supposed to
have begun on these proposed im
provements when the last shift in the
schedule was made. As a matter of
fact, according to Manager McCloskey's
own confession, the gate receipts at the
California metropolis have been so la
mentably small as to make It suicidal
to play there any more than absolutely
nccesjsary.

BROWNS
LOSE
TO OAKLAND
During a recent baseball game at
Laurel Hill, New York, between two
rival nines, there were four umpires
used, and still the player were not at
all pleased with their decisions. As the
fourth umpire delivered his first de
clslon some one threw a bat at him
and the frightened official made his de
parture from the scene of action with
much more haste than becoming dignity.
A general light followed in which the
women played a prominent part by their
effective shrieking, when shots rang
out the fighters ran, but the shots came
only from a man discharging blank car
tridges from a pistol. The police were
called, but no arrests were made.
In order that Mrs. C. Oliver Iselln
and her daughter may not suffer the
trouble of attending the International
yacht races In August, Mr. Iselln has
secured a number of carrier pigeons
that will convey the tidings of the races
to her at her beautiful summer home,
All View, at Summer Point.

Mrs. John S. Drake, the beautiful
wife of the millionaire horseman, shed
tears for half an hour at Chicago when
she heard that her husband's great horse
was defeated for the American Derby
by an outsider, Picket. Mrs. Drakes
ears are always ready to flow, even on
he result of a horse race, andi no one
lias the right to deny her that priv
ilege. For her sake It is too bad that
her pet horse did not win.
Sir Thomas Ltpton, the great English
yachtman, Is again on American soil,
his time In qMest of the coveted trophy
for which he vainly tried twice
before. 8lr Thomas Is considered a
game sportsman, and has been lately
dined and wined by President Koosevelt
at the Executive Mansion, and was given
a royal send-off by King Edward VII of
Great Britain ere he set sail. For his
own tender feelings It is to be hoped
that envious ones will not recall his
tea advertising scheme, with which he
was charged on his last visit Sir
Thomas' teas and his yachting ideas are
as close as the States of New York and
Pennsylvania, and anybody thinking
that he will seperate them is not posted
on current events.

BAN FRANCISCO. June 27 Peter
Lehman's crew took the Portland
Browns down another notch yesterday,
by playing all-around better ball.
Oakland's error column. although
decorated with one more than Is charged

as the visitors' misplays.
Joe Kostal was detailed to deliver the
shoots for the visitors, but after flva
Innings, during which Oakland secured
dui six nits, which, coupled with two
passes and several errors, allowed Loh
man's pets to score a total of six runa.
George Engle was then ordered to tha
front, and Oakland took kindly to hia
slants by pounding out three runa In tha
sixth and seventh Innings. The Ttlarlna
of Waiters and Kling have excited tha
admiration of the "fans" who say that
Lohman has at last secured the equals
of Francks and Mohler.
The game was exciting and kept tha
crowd on edge during the whole session.

The Memslc-Reilly boxing contest,
which takes place at the great fistic
carnival arranged by the Pastime Club
for tho benefit of the sufferers of the
Heppner flood, is the solo topic of con
versation among local sports. Both of
the boys are training hard and promiso
to nut u b a faster and more rugged ex
hibition than any ever seen In the local
arena. Memsic, who has been seen here
to advantage in his previous go with
Reilly, and his peerless fight with Young
Corbett, featherweight champion of the
world. Is doing his preparatory .work
at Tom Traceys, and amuses a large
crowd of spectators every afternoon
by walloping his trainer, and any aspirant-
for pugllistlo honors who. cares
to don the mits with him. Memsic has
made many friends during his brief stay
In Portland, and will carry the bulk
of the local coin on Monday evening.
Beilly at Work.
Reilly is doing road work around
rfallas and says he is practicing a new
punch that will win for him on reach
ing the spot. Reilly also has a 10
round draw with Young Corbett to his
credit, and to quote from a Uenver
paper's account of It, It was the great
est battle ever seen anywhere.
The referee for this event will be ,
chosen at the ringside, but none of the
club pntrons need fear delay on thut
account. a Manager Day has a stipu
lation In the articles which will pre
vent it.
Eight Good Bouts.
The eight bouts which precede the !
Rpillv-Memaic ko promise to. be tho!
warmer things of th"tr kind, as a
friendly rivalry has xping up amongst
each pair, and the boast Is freely made
thrft ono go will surpasS the other for
fast work and hard hitting. The four
colored lads who are to compete -in the
battle' royal have been training on yellow-legged
chicken and pork ijiops. and
that something will surely be doing goes
Without saying.
Tickets were placed on sale at all the
leading cigar stores yesterday and are
meeting with a ready demafnd. Every
one interested in the boxing game is
boosting as all are anxious to have the
reeipts surpass those of last Tues
day's theatrical benefit.
