Umpire -McDonald waa 111. and did not appear at tbe grounds, and in hla place Butler and Thomas officiated. . In Jue- -tire to the officials It must be said that they performed their duties well, and. considering the great length of the con- ' test; there were no decisions made -that ' affected "the gam which were not cor ' 'rect. - The game up until the ninth Inning waa an uphill fight for Portland. Over all fanning out the Browns' beat batters. In the ninth Portland scored a run And ' tied the score. From the ninth to the l5th it, was a pltchera' fight both man doing brilliant work. In the final In jnlng Tacoma. forged . one run ahead on 'Casey's hit. on which there waa a close decision at first, a sacrifice and Ora- JMUH IIHIBII .nil -V F9 f.v.v. .. .r Raymond, the firat up the youngster who presented Tacoma, with two runs In the first Inning on a throw to the bleach - ers made a hit.' -McCrewdle attempted a sacrifice and forced Raymond at second. : In an attempt to catch McCreedl off llrst Overall- threw low to Hocan and the ball hit the bleacher fence and car omed off toward right field. McCreedl ' started for second, and Instead of- stop ping there attempted to reach third, but Hogan caught him by a perfect throw to feheehan. . - Her " la wher th crowd became rouglu Thomas ruled McCreedl out, - end his award was eminently fair. 8v eral Portland players maintained that the ball was blocked, and right her Bill Hurley, noted for his rowdy work, waved - to the bleachers and got them In on the diamond. Why Inigdale ever allowed 'Hurley to wear a uniform and to appear on the coaching-line. In spite of th fact that Hurley lumped Llttl Rock, and Dugdalo as yet having no claim upon him. Is a matter that Is beyond all base- ball reason and sense. Should Tacoma , IHtVB job I yvnivrunjr m ,m wmiwaws nelier could enter a protest on account of Hurley appearing on the coaching line, and the league would promptly , award Tacoma th gam. '. The crowd surged in on the field and Manager Dugdale appeared In th midst of th crowd. After a delay of 10 mln- j utes. tho bleachers seeing that Umpire M'homas was In the right, withdrew and th gam was quickly finished, Portland belnir unable to tie th score. . ... . . . i -. . . - . All rr nw Rsim xm vivwu urruiiuw the vlsmng'piayers, ana in oraer 10 pro tect themselves each Tacoma player car- , ried his bat wdth hlra. . The first fight occurred at the gat, when a gang 1 rushed at Graham and Overall and ran them Into th fence. Th players dls- played their bats and th crowd fell back and resorted to throwing rocks. , Overall was hit off th back, and Doyl .. received a rock in th ribs. This was kept up until th players reached a car, and as th car started a volley of rocks v and clubs crashed Into Its aide, several of th atones going through th open windows among the passengers. - The entire affair ended without any body being hurt, although several wom en had narrow escapes from being - struck. T- - A number of th spectators endeavored to suppress the mob, but their efforts , were usalass, and unless Managar Dug dale can guarantee th fans protection from assault from a crowd of rowdies 'th attendance at th remainder of th games her will, be greatly reduced. . It may seem strange, nevertheless the j prediction .came true yesterday, that j everything that has been said regarding . , Hurley's rowdyism has been correct. , That player has th reputation for ln- , citing the bleachers to violence, and how Manager Dugdal can hop to secure him and retain him In aplte of his reputation ,1s something that Uugdsl himself will jhAv to snswer for. The Portland base I ball public loves fairness, and this city 1 wMI never countenance th presence of 'sny player whose chief stock In trad I Is -dirty ballplaytng. Hurley waa large ly responsible for th bleachers' actions yesterday. As for the gam Itself. If was on of 'the hardest-fought games of many months. Both Overall and Roach did , splendid work, although their - support , was bad' at times.' In the first Inning 1' Raymond had an easy chance to retire th side, but tossed th ball Into th bleachers, allowing two runs to score. Tacoma earned a tally in th second on a i double and two outs, although Raymond I could have caught Casey at the plat had he thrown to Shea Instead of frees I . K-ll ,1111, VI, ti. (lie vmi .
