L PORTLAND GETS FLOCK ' . OF RUNS IN THIRD During Blowup Leaders Come Across Nfe(ate Like Fin ,. ishers! in. Marathon, By R. A. Cronln. Sympathy compels' us to so.ueez a tear for poor old Pop Dillon. Since last Tuesday his silver-tipped dome and gaunt frame have Bought shelter on the Ansel hunch. The only time he appears In view of the fans is when he walks Out to the plate to give his batting order to the umpires. There was a time this year when old Pop used to prance up and down the first and third-base coaching lines and let fall gem after gem of sarcasm at the Portland players. But that was before these Beavers of ours learned how to hit the ball. Shower after shower of base blows has caused the veteran Of a thousand diamond battles to seek shelter within the confines of the kindly benrh. There were sixteen, hits yesterday and they were divided equally off the deliv ery of Messrs. Gregory and Slagle. The only difference In the pitching of the pair was the fact that five of the tallies, Just enough to win, were made off the Oakland castoff. Both Sharpshooters Tighten Up. Slagle got away handily after three runs had been made off him In the third. Hagerman's pitching was fair, except for i the sixth innlngr, when he lost con trol and forced a run -over on a walk. Then he tightened up ultli the bases full and fanned Byrnes and Slagle, re tiring the side. " Derrick, Lindsay, Doano and Lober added to- their batting average with three hits each. Lober, whom Dillon traded for Artie Krueger, has found the Angel twlrlers soft picking. He has hit safely 11 out of 17 times, giving him an average so far this week of .647. His hitting for the season against the Angel twlrlers is .358. Los Angeles got away with the first run in the opening inning. Page walked, went to second on a passed ball and scored on Wotell's single to center. Wo tell took second on Moore's out, stole third and tried to score on Maggart's grounder to Lindsay, but was called out by Finney. It wu persistent kicking on this same decision after Chadbourne had been retired in the Beavers' half that got Arbogast an early shower bath and Jimmy Byrnes took up the back stopping. Beavers Tie Up Boor. Portland tied up the score In the sec ond on Kfoane's double to left, his steal of third and Lober's single to right. Los Angeles took a momentary lead In the third on Gregory's single to left, Moore's double to right center and a wild pitch. The big blowup came In the third. Chadbourne started with a single to left and took third on Derrick's single through short. Rodger's grounder was missed by Gregory, filling the bases. Lindsay crowded the ball through short and Chad and Derrick scored. Doane beat out a hit to Page, filling the bases again. WcCormick drove a safe one across second and scored Rodgers and Lindsay. Wotell Has Kola In Slats. - Slagle gingerly took the ball from Howard's dexter paw and shot It down the groove to Lober, who turned It back into left field. Mike Wotell let the ball filter through his alats and Doane and McCormlck scored. Lober reached third, and when Fisher backed Maggart up against the center field fence, Ty trotted leisurely home. Hagerman was thrown out by Johnson, and Chadbourne, up for the second time, lorted to Maggart. Portland made its ninth run In the fourth. Rodgers wan ticked on the cap by Slagle, but was forced by Lindsay. Doane then tripled to center, but the last out was made by McCormlck, who was winged out Dy Johnson. Kafferman Oeta Threatening. Los Angeles made two more in the fifth and the going was so rough for Hagerman that Mccredle rushed Stan ley to the warmup line. Wotell walked and Moore hit to McCormlck, who laid plans for a double play, but Rodgers dropped the throw. Wofel reaching third, whence he scored on Maggart's inneia out. Howard walked and John son, singled to center, filling the bases. JQiiis replaced Metzger and walked. forcing Moore in. Hagerman whiffed the next two and the Angels' last chance to score was over.

Wo Xaw Violated. While the district attorney will ad here strictly to the California statutes in prosecuting the men, the opinion ex pressed on all sides today is that no law has been violated. The death of Young Is generally looked upon as an unavoidable accident, Just as a maji participating in any other sport might receive injuries that would result In death. The Judgment of ringside witnesses to the blow that It was not sufficiently hard to cause such an end seems to be shared by the prosecuting officials themselves. It was stated today that Youngs great Jaw was abnormal and this caused the cere bral hemorrhage. The coroner held a post-mortem ex amination of the remains this evening and a coroner's Inquest probably will be held early next week. Abolition of righting Probable. It. is probable, however, that, "not withstanding the fact that the present state law has not been violated, a strong movement will be set afoot looking to the abolition of prise-fighting In the ! .

WAS UMPIRE FINNEY When Umpire Finney called Chester Chadbourne safe on his steal of third base In the, second innifcg Friday, Shortstop Ernie Johnson and George Metzger raised a mighty yelp. Some of the baseball fans sided with the Angelenos, but the faithful camera, the only witness that never tells a fib or allows It self to be swayed by popular acclajrn, shows that Finney was right. The snapshot shows Chadbourne "hooking" into the bag amid a cloud of dust. Metzger hn 'lis right foot on one corner of the bag, while Chadbourne's foot can be faintly traced under one edgo as the ball was placed on him, revealing that Metzger had been a trifle slow in executing the play. Umpire Finney is right on top of the play and able to see what is going on. state. For several years the promoters have had a bitter fight to wage before each sitting of the legislature and have been enabled to continue the sport only because of their careful Instructions to the referees to call a bout "no contest" when the first signs of danger ap peared. This rule was adhered to last night, according to Referee Byton. who says Young had not been injured in the slightest degree until the last blow was struck. The blow that terminated the fight and resulted In Young's death was a right-hand uppercut on the chin, deliv ered while the big men were rushing to close quarters. Just previously to delivering the final blow, Willard had forced Young to lower his guard with a left on the jaw. Quickly taking advantage of his oppor tunity. Willard shot his right fist over with terrific force. Young sank to the floor In a sitting postura and rolled over on his side. Attorney Rogers' Statement. After conferring with Doctors A. D. HouKhton. G. A. Scroggs and R. B Griffith, Earl Rogers, attorney for all th men arrested, made a statement concerning the cause of Youngs death Rogers said. "Young death was due entirely to cerebral hemorrhage. Young walked Into the last round with his Jaw tightly set. The blow was not absorbed by the mus cles, but communicated to his skull and brain, with the result that a hemor rhage was started." When big Jess willard strode silently and with wet eyes Into Justice Summer- field's court today, he encountered Adam Young, "Bull's" younger brother. The two men shook hands silently. Young exonerating Willard from all blame. Down at Venice last night, Mrs. Nellie Wright, a widow, sat at a telegraph in strum en t throughout the contest be tween Willard and Young. When the final blow was struck and the operator announced, a few minutes later, that physicians were still trying to restore Young to consciousness, Mrs. Wright wept bitterly and retired to her home. This morning the widow rushed to Los Angeles. When she arrived "Bull" had passed away. Then It became known that today was to have been "Bull's1 happiest day. He was to have wed Mrs. Wright.

Victoria, B. C, Aug. 23. Pitcher Pat Mays equaled' the record established by his team mate, Pat Callahan, against the Seattle team last Sunday by pitch ing a double victory over the Victoria Bees here this afternoon. The scores were 2 to 0 and 4 to 3. Mays pitched wonderful ball through out both games. Not a single base on balls was Issued by the former West ern Tri-State hurler during the 18 Innings and only 12 hits were made off 'his delivery, two-thlrda of them being made in the second game. In the first contest six batters were fanned and half that number whiffed in the second contest. Sharing' honors with Mays is Nick Williams, manager of the Colts. Nick showed good Judgment by sending Cal lahan to bat for Coltrln. Callahan walked Narveson for a pass and then Narveson grooved one for Manager Nick and the last time the ball was seen-it was sailing over the fence, giv ing Portland a one run lead, which was enough to win. the game. The first contest waa a nip and tuck pitching battle between C. May and Fitchner, with the breaks favoring the Colt twlrler. Six hits were made of Fltchner's delivery but they were made at the right time. A fast double play in the second Inning with the bases full pulled Mays out of a bad hole in the second Inning. After that It was smooth sailing for Pat. In the fourth Inning of the second game, the Bees bunched two triples and scored two runs. This caused Mays to tighten up and he held the Bees score less the rest of the game. Alexander Suffers Injury. Philadelphia. Aug. 23.
