BRITISH P0L01STS MOT

London, July 9. The International
polo game in America between the Hur
llnghame club and the Meadowbrooka of
America, will be played lata In August
and early In September. The British
playr are not at all confident of bring
ing back to England the sup which was
carried to, America last year. It may
. be possible, however, that the failure of
Captain H. Lloyd to get together a (team
of his liking for the purpose of "lift
.ing" the American cup may prove a
blessing in disguise, -Polo enthusiasts
know that the Americans had sev
eral attempts to regain the cup. before
v they succeeded,; previous reverses show
ing them where they were weakest It
would be expecting a lot to count on an
. English, team regaining .the trophy at
- the first time of asking,, so that the run
..." of event may be for- the best
It Is a real sporting spirit which has
led the Old Etonians to authorize the
Hurlinghame club tochallenge for the
cup. The members will pay their own
; expenses, so that the America cup re
covery fund will not be touched.

SPEEDY MOTOR BOATS
IN RACE AGMN TODAY
After the free-for-all motor boat racei
for the Pacific coast championship and
a $500 cup is decided at Vancouver this
afternoon the yachts will have their
Innings, and two-races will be run -off,
a free-for-all handicap and a 28-foot
800-foot-sail class for some silver cups.
However. Interest is centered, In the
meeting of the, motor boats, undoubt
edly the fastest on the Pacific coast
It will not jenly be a test of speed, but
it will settle a mooted question as to
the supremacy if Seattle or Portland
In the speedboat line. Seattle has en
. tered the 32-foot Seattle Spirit, the fast
est 1n Puget sotlnd waters, whloh broke
. the coast record for boats of that size
; ever a. 30-mile course at Vancouver
July . .Portland is entering the keen
: local'IrtaalB, Wolff M and Pacer II. the
latter a 82-foot boat. The Wolff II
; is eight feet longer than her speedy
l rivals, though It Is a question as to
which la ' equipped with the greatest
horsepower, as the owners are extreme
ly chary of letting out the extent of
, their power.
Those who follow motor raring close-
1 ly. say that engines are as tempera
mental as humans, a,nd that the lan
guorous atmosphere of the Fourth
handicapped the Jecal racers.
Whatever truth there might be to that
assertion, it remains a fact neverthe
less that the local, owners are praying
for brisker ; weather this afternoon.
They figure that if the air Is cool the
machinery will be 'more flexible and
that, much .better time can ,be made
ftti the local boats, Jn the race the
Kowrth, which was interrupted .by a
drifting buoy. the. Seattle Spirit made
.up an Immense , amount of ground on
. the turns of the tbuoy,' and the, local
, owners will .-guard against a. repetition
of so much loss bf space. J '
The motor boat' raee Is. scheduled to

United Press Telegrapher From
-Reno' Ringside Relates How
Telegraph Battle of Press
Associations Was Won.
E. 0. Tomllnson, special telegraph op
erator in the employ of the United Press,
who sent the returns of the Jeffries
Johnson fight direct from the ringside
at Reno, Nev,',-Monday, .arrived in, Port
land yesterday and explained how anil
why the United Press "scooped".' all
other news organizations oyer the coun
try on news of the fight. ' ' ,
"There wera;four of us at the ring
side for the United Press." he said, "two
telegraph operators and two news writ
ers. The wire on which I sent ran di
rectly to .The Journal office in Portland,
and to other newspaper offices in the
west. T.he othr operator Sent to news
papers In the larger cities of the east,
from where the returns were relayed.
We operators sat at the end of the
United Press table, which was : at a
neutral corner of the ring, and the news
writers sat between us. - Max Balthasar,
prize fight expert for the United Press,
read off the blows into a speaking tu.be
which we two operators had over our
ears, and we flashed out the news with
out an instant's delay, direct to the
newspapers. ,'",''
t "But the Asoclated Press dispatches
were delayed. Fearing wire trouble, for
which we were prepared In another way, !
two expert Associated Press operators
who were sent to Reno from New York,
sat by the ringside and flashed out the
reports over "pony wires to a relay
office which , the Associated 1 PreBs
equipped uptown In Reno. Only 1 the
United Press and Hearst News service,
which also had a direct wire to The
Journal office, sent the news direct from
the- ringside. . The Postal Telegraph
company advertised that It bad wires
direct from the rlngside,but It had no
wires in the arena, I don't know where
it got .its new..i.
Bet Everyone Else. .
"By means of more perfect arrange
ments the United Press "scooped" every
news organization Jn the world on the
fight returns and general news of the
fight There was not a hitch. I was
able to toll off to the operators In The
Journal office . the counts of the time
keeper, as he raised and lowered his
hand 10 times. -There was not a second's
A1v -
Many Interesting sidelights were
thrown on the fight toy Mr, Tomllnson,
who -was formerly manager of the
United Press' bureau office in Portland.
He told of the riot which folowed the
counting out of Jeffries, of the men and
women walking over telegraph operator
and newspaper men In road haste to
reach the ring. ,
. "When Jeffries was counted out, about
half of the 17.000 or 18,000 persons prev
ent began a mad rush to the ring," he
said... "They (walked on our hands as
we , were sending, ' climbed over our
shoulders and kicked our heads. One
rat woman, whose craze for a souvenir
led' her to fight a place to thee ring, fell
on top of me as I sent , . ,
"Some men started things by cutting
off a piece of the rope inclosing the
nng. in a few-moments the rope had
been cut to pieces, and then the crowd
began cutting up the canvas mat cover
ing the boards of the ring. I saw one
fellow go away with a piece of the can
vas as large, as a bed quilt They even
went so far as to pull. up the screw
eyes which had held down , the canvas
and chop off bits of the flooring.
'.wnen Jerr entered the ring he seemed
more worried than frightened. He clam
bered through the ropes as If he wets
groggy. When he got inside he stood
with his feet far apart, as if not sure
(Continued on Page Five.)
The club fulfilled its promise to give
the public a fine exhibition of fast
boat racing. It also brought out the
fact that the public likes the sport
from the size of the crowd that went
to Vancouver to witness the races Mon
day. (
Fred Peterson made a fine Job of
rebuilding his cruiser, the Lillian.
" The new pennants did not arrive In
time for the Fourth, but they are here
now., There will be no exeuse for npt
flying one, as the coat Is very reason
able. The next outing will he at the Rock
Island club, July 24.. Make your ar
rangements now.
A 'good many of the boys wore the
new- regulation club cap at the races
Monday, but it Is exnerted tht all th
members will wear them at the next
turnout '
The banquet was a success, but there
were a number of the clubmen who
failed to show up. They probably felt
downhearted at the outcome of the Reno
fight.

Gus worked , hard on the farm and
built up a rugged constitution.' There
were few amusements and the boys of
the countryside : occupied their - spare
hours in playing baseball. He rapidly
grew into a crack catcher end the man
ager of the Waco team heard about blm
and sent for him. Gus went down for a
trail and played about 20 games, finish
ing the season of 1906. He had trouble
in locating the better pitchers and only

bility, Jhat tbe .next .great, tnterhatlonal
horse show will be held In America. If
so, It will be held in New York. In
formation' from ; London is that Paris
will seek to get ; the next show, but
America teema to have th-tronger bid.
The International show held at Olyrrfpla,
London, last month, emphasized the Im
portance of the part America Is playing
in this turf event.
" If as many European horses at there
were American horses at plympia could
be counted on for an international horse
show In View f York, and If ' Madison
Square Garden were decorated one half
as lavishly as the setting of the London
show has been, an exhibition here should
be a great success. But are there any
exhibitors In England or on the conti
nent like Alfred G. Vanderbllt; C W.
Watson, William H. Moore, R. P. Mc
Grann. Edwin M. Weatherbee- and B. T.
Stotesbury who would ship large stables
of horses, across the Atlantic and back
again to compete with the pick of the
country to which, they would be sent?
Without several -of the repreeentative
stables of English and European har
ness and saddle' horses and hunters the
show would lose Us International char
acter and would be merely the ..national
horse show over again under a new
name. ,
Earnest efforts have been made Jn
past years, to bring some1 of these for
eign stables over to the Garden show,
but,-ittMMt--ueeer,r!Wert"tn''B'-few
comparatively unimportant ''instances.
That the London f: International J gives

Did It' ever occur to you rabid and

are five men on the Poitland baseball
team who collectively would dnaw J20,
