' Fanning. '
Speck Harkness turned the tables pn
the Seals yesterday afternoon and ad
ministered some of thelf Own medicine
on a 3-toa basis. The-6Deekled beauty
had the visitors feeding out of his
freckled paws from the first to the
.last frame, and when they arew un
usually dangerous, Speck turned a little
more Juice Into his shoulder and fanned
them out. Just to show that he had as
. much at the end as the. beginning he
-fanned both Wuff H inH RiiKhor W
Hams, stuck In as a pinch hitter for
Mr. Fanning. '
Fanning pitched air tight ball .until
the seventh, when Wisher's single opened
the way for a general onslaught all
along the line. When It was over a
trio of champion had socked their
spikes Into the rubber.
Undesy's ntttlns feature.
The feature of the game was the
great hitting of Bill Lindsay, who gath
ered four clean hits in four trips to
the plate. In the first Inning he caught
Wuffll napping with a swinging bunt
and Wuff couldn't reach tha ball. In
tha third Inning he drove one on the
ground between Howard and Mohler,
following this up with a liner to center
In the sixth and another poke between
Howard and Mohler in the seventh.
As recited already, Fisher started the
leventh Inning with a single, after a
young lady of a visiting Klk delegation
has pasted her gum on the end of his
cudgel. Gus walked out, took a healthy
Wing at the pill and sent it to Hart
ley's pasture. Butler lajd down a deft
sacrifice, which Schmidt fielded beauti
fully, Just getting the Beaver shnrtstop
Jer. Rapps followed with a terrific
slam to right center (hat was good for
three bases and Gus sprinted home.
Doane Hits in Finch.
Harkness tried to sacrifice and then
fanned, but Poane brought Rapps home
With a pretty pinch hit to short left
field. Doane stole second and scored
when Lindsay crammed his fourth hit
between Mohler and Howard, Bill reach.
lng second when Mnndorff let the ball
roll throiifSi his less. Tlodgers skied to
" Hartley and oln''"1 the tnnlnir. "
In the eighth Krurfrer doubled to right
center, but died on sornnd when Hutcher,
Fisher an 1 Butlrr were ar bouts.
The finals p"t after Harkness a hit In
the fourth ;ind air:', in In the sixth, but
he sa Invini'iblo in the pinches. He
started the feijrth by walking Mohler
and Schmidt rlrepped a Tcmih iracuer
hark of Fh'i;t. The signal, was., flashed,
for a dmililo steal, but H was messed
up and MiiI.Ut was thrown out nt. third
by Flshf-, Schmidt remaining on first.
Howard forced Schmidt at second and
thou stole, taking third when Fisher's
throw riiiiintel into right field. Hartley
jioppcd to Kodgors and tha inning was
over.
Speck Tans Cortan.
In the fifth Mimdy whlfTed, hut Moh
ler Fcnitditil a hit to Butler and took
rconnd n H'hmi.lt's scratch to the
same Individual. Howard's fly to Krue

Seattle, July 10. Check up the ninth

and Cruikshank about the mouth.
"When the ninl,h rolled around, both
teams had three runs registered. The
Colts immediately grew dangerous to
James.' McDowell walked, and Moore
singled past third, and things looked
promising for' the visitors, "but James
tightened up, causing Coltrln to arch to
Strait, -striklns out Harris, who batted
for Veazey, and making Kibble left to
Moran,
Oirot was sent in in the last half of
the ninth to pitch. He was wild as
usual. Moran walked as a starter, and
Chick got away .with a bunt. Jackson
was walked, and that resulted In Wil
liams'" yanking Glrot and sending- Doty,
his best bet, to the mound. McDowell
grabbed Whaling's grounder and pegged
Moran out at the plate. Doty shot a
couple of saliva bells over to McMul

connected for the fly to short left field,
and the game was over.

ADAMS PLEASED AT
ALBANY DECISION
New York, July H. Charles C.
Adams, vice-president of the Postal
Telegraph company, having been asked
in regard to tha decision which the
jmbllc rervh-e commission at Albany
handed down yesterday afternoon In
regard to the New York Telephone
company (a Pell company) diverting
business to tho Western Union and
discriminating in tho service rendered
to the Postal cs compared with the
Western Union, said:
"We, Of course, are gratified that
tha public service commission has
stooped this nhiiKA and has stopped It
Bumuiarlly. Hereafter the Western
Union will not b aide to gather in nil
the floating telexiv.ph business by
monopolizing ' Ihe word" '"telegram" as
a call word over tho telet'hone. A very
Importmt feature of the decision is
that tho telephone c mpany Is ordered
not to allow Its telephone operators to
give uny advice to the public as to
which telegraph company to patronise
or designate or to direct which company
shall have tho telegram.
"We trust that now the Bell Tele
phone companies will direct their oper
ators to stop favoring the Western
Union and diverting the Postal Tele
graph business to the Western Union
If It la not stopped we shall keep the
fight going."

official 1 referee for MeCarey Paclf lo
Athietiq club, it on record todar with a
statement that he "would not. referee
a dog fight if Tom Jones (Wolgast's
manager) were connected with It"
Eyton'e statement waa called forth by
Jones' declaration, that if Wolgast and
Jbivera.- are rematch ed Ey ton .cannot
referee. Eyton said:
"If I were offered half the purse to
referee that fight, I would not do it as
long as a man of Jones' caliber was in
terested. The sporting public knows
my record. Jones does, too. He knows
his meal ticket would have to obey the
rules of boxing if I were in the ring."
Eyton then .offered MeCarey a bit of
advice, suggesting that he ''not allow
Jones to dictate to him any more." Ho
then declared Volgat to be the brains
of the Jonos-Wolgast combination, and
referred to Jones as "the champion's
"messenger boy."
Rivers and Wolgast both have ap

HUSH
Aviator, in Trying to . Avoid
... Crowd When Engine Fails,
Wrecks Machine;. Oldfield
Breaks Coast Record. 7
rully 8000 people, half of tne crowd
which watched the automobile races at
the Country clb track yesterday after
noon, gasped in horror as they saw W.
MrStaMt deliberately Turn "the aero
plane in which he was making an exhi
bition flight to the earth 60 feet below
and a eigh of relief went up when it
was found that he waa unhurt. The
machine was badly wrecked but the
engine was found to be intact.
Stark had just risen from the ground
and started to turn to the left when
his engine began to miss. Seeing sev.
eral automobiles In the path which
prevented a safe landing, Stark took the
only alternative left as the safest for
himself and the spectators.
Neither Stark nor thoee near the
scene could explain ,hls escape except
that tho fall of the machine threw the
aviator from his seat before the ground
was struck. Stark received a slight
scratch car his lip, a bruise on his nose
and lost a little skin from one knee.
His trousers were torn and soiled by
the dirt. Both planes of his machine,
the running gear and the braces were
twisted and torn to such an extent that
considerable repairs will be necessary
to put tha biplane In shape to fly again.
The flight was announced to follow
the races at once, but was delayed for
some time owing to trouble with the
carburetor and many of the spectators
left. A new carburetor was adjusted
and T. A. Berlin, Stark's partner, at
tempted to fly. Finding he was having
trouble, Stark took his place. He rose
once but only for a few feet. The
engine stltll bothered but Btark tried
once more and the plane rose gracefully,
heading west. Ha had Juat made the
turn to the south when the accident
happened.
A flight had been scheduled by Chrls
tofferson, the Vancouver, Wash., avi
ator, who flew from tha Multnomah
hotel, but, It is said, he could not come
to an agreement with the management
over finances and arrsngements ware
mnde with Berlin and Stark for the
flight. When the delay occurred the
flight was called off for a time, but on
Stark's assurance that he would fly as
soon as he could get the engine to
f?otng property the erowd waa asked to
wait. Stark was to have circled the
track three times.
Oidfleld Btar Performer.
Barney Oidfleld was the stsr perform
er in the automobile races and In an
exhibition mile against time with a
flying start he brok.e the Pacific- coast
record for a mile dirt track by covering
the distance In 52 seconds. Oidfleld was
accompanied by a passenger. The form
er record of 62 2-5 seconds was held by
Oldfield and was made at the Ascot
track in Los Angeles two years sgo.
Had it not been for th turn which
caused the accident to Chris Dundee on
Tuesday, when he crashed through the
fence in the "Whistling Billy," Old-
field's time might have been even bet
ter, but as was the caae In all of yes
terday's races he slowed up for this
turn.
Shortly before Oldflold's performance
Teddy Tetzlaff covered the mile in
R3 1-5 seconds and tlds fast time caused
Oldfield to let his powerful Christie car
out. Tetziuff was th star of the two
big races. In the first of the two he
had his team mates, Verbeck and Hill,
pitted against him and the first three
of the five miles were exciting. Teti
laff began to draw away at the third
mile and had euch a lead at the finish
that he slowed his car considerably as
he turned into the stretch that the fin
ish might ho more exciting. Ills tlrriej
for the five miles was B:l 2-6. All
three cars were Flats.
As though to show that he really
could make fast time In the closing
race Tetxlaff turned his 60 horsepower
car loose and made the fastest time of
the flay for five miles, making the drive
in 4:39 1-B seconds. Helnemann in his
Bens followed at a good distance, but
Frit sen was completely outclassed.
One of Prettiest Races.
One of tho prettiest races of the day
was between Barney Oldfield In his
Christie car and Helnemann In his Ben.
The race was scheduled for Oldfield
against tha winner of a five mile race
between Fritsch in a Clno and Helne
mann In a Bens. Instead of five milea
the heat was cut to three, which Helne
mann won In 3:01. Oidfleld and Helne
mann then completed the other two
miles and Oldfield led by the length of
his car. Through an error In announc
ing the races the timekeepers failed to
ttme the sconrt mile: Helnemann led
at the finish of tha first mile, crossing
the line In 68 2-5 seconds with Oldfield
close behind and gaining. .As the two
turned into the stretch on the seoond
mile Oldfield opened the throttle of the
Christie and the car leaped to the lead.
The officials gave the estimated time
for the race as 1:6S.
Stung by the defeat which Helnemann
had administered In the three mile race
Fritsch challenged him to a special race
of three miles. Fritsch led for the flrat
mile, but as they crossed the line Helne
mann made a great spurt and took the
lead which he maintained. At the first
i turn of the third mile at the west end
of the track the spectators held their
breaths, for with slightly diminished
speed Helnemann started the circle and
his heavy car began to skid and for a
moment it appeared as though it would
strike tha fence. Helnemann orossed
tha line at the finish in 2:62 2-6, with
Fritsch but a second and a fifth be
hind. In a tire changing contest Tetzlaff
and Verbeck with their mechanicians
tied In 8 5 seconds. Later TeUlaff, with
the aid of Hill, accomplished the change
in en exhibition in 30 seconds.
Verne Maskell on an Indian motor
cycle twice defeated Gus Peppel on an
tTxcelslor, making the 10 mile ride in
9 27 2-5 and breaking hla own track
record made last Sunday by three fifths
of a second, and In the five mile race
by coming under the wire in 1:43 1-6.
Chris Dundee, the racer who waa in
jured Tuesday, is improving at the
Good Samaritan hospital and the danger
mtrk will soon be passed.
