OGDEN LOST SECOND GAME
OUTBATTED AND OUTFIELDED
HELENA BUT LOST.
Hansford Went Up In the Air In
Latter Half of Game-Then Hell
ena Batted Out Victory.
Special to The Heraldl


Helena, Mont, Aug. 6.-One thousand
Ogden's crack team this afternoon in the
face of defeat. 1t was remarkable finish
IN the most exciting contest ever seen on
a Helena diamond
-, The grandstand probably won the game.
Mr.. Hansford. the ex-Brooklyn south
paw. and he went into the air in the ninth
inning when he was very much needed on
earth.
Ogden's infield work was gilt-edged, and
included three double plays and all the
put-outs with three exceptions. Helena
was not up to its usual form and the loose
work OF the infield was costly. Helena $
outfield work in spots was. however. bril-
liant. Good stick work at critical mo-
ments won the game for Helena.
The score of II TO doesn't begin to tell
the story. Up TO the sixth inning Helena
was smut out while the VlSIIGrS had
damned out six runs. five in the first inn
ing. when they touched up Ryan for sew
erdl singles and. q two-ba2 ger. Helena )
STOCK went up in the sixth " hen the home
boys brought in four runs. Three more
were made in the seventh. and at the be-
ginning Of the. ninth inning the game
stood to in favor of OgIien.
Ogden made desperate but futile effort
10 regain their lost ground in the last half
OIL the ninth. Two runs were needed to lie
and three TO win. Casey hit safe. Then
Glmlin belted enc far in o the rigat garden
mat Tommy Ryan pulled down with one
hand. 1t was the greatest play in u game
that abounded with features. Greenwell
sent another to the same spot with the
same result and a moment ia,er MI.
Casey was nabbed off first base.

What all this flying about the country

ment between the Northern Pacific and

do not use it all the time. We would

It is undoubtedly this suggestion that

Chicago, Aug. ga special to the
Record from Victoria, B. c.. says: The
imperial government and the dominion
authorities have decided to increase
both the regular military and militia
forces on this station, the Pacific coast
depot of the British army and navy.
Coming at this time, when the relations
between Canada and the United States
are acknowledged by Premier Laurier
to be rather strained over the Alaskan
boundary question, 1t looks as if Great
Britain and Canada We're determined 10
assert their claim to the portion of
Alaska demanded by Canada by force
of arms is necessary.
Be this as it may, the garrison is TO
be at once greatly increased. The bar
racks on Maculey Point, where the big
forts are situated. which with their
long reaching disappearing guns COM
mand the entrance to the straits of
San Juan de Fuca, will soon be the
home of more than treble the number
of engineers, marine artillery, sapperS
and other united service men than are
now quartered there. Some of the adj
ditional garrison has already left Eng
land, and others will come out in big
squads within the next few months via
Halifax and the Canadian Pacific rail-
way. The first squad of troops to come
will number 800 officers and men, and
the present accommodations being too
small to house them. much larger bar
racks will be at once erected.
The cost of the new military post,
half of which is to be borne by the do
minion government and half by the
British authorities, is e25,0O0 sterling,
or about S125,000. 1t is also said the
naval forces will be increased by the
addition of depot ship. the Temeraire,
which will be sent out from Chatham in
September. The warship with the new
admiral is due from England two weeks
hence.

Southern Ports to Receive Grain
From Sections Tributary to Them.

Chicago, Aug. 6.-Msmbers of the
Chicago board of trade and others di-
rectly. interested in the handling Of
western grain, look forward to the
meeting in this city tomorrow of the
interstate commerce commission and
the executive officers of the eastern
and western railroads with unusual in
terest. 1t is the general expectation
that the meeting ultimately will result
in some definite settlement of the long
standing question Of export rates and
territorial rights
Tie general impression is that a ter
ritorial division will be agreed upon
by the roads and the shippers II is
believed that the southern ports will be
allowed to receive the export grain
from the sections which are naturally
tributary TO them, and that Chicago
and Duluth will be made the centers
for all the sections whose outputs they
are. most entitled to receive.
All the members of the commission
have signified their intention of being
present. President Martin A. Knapp
and Commissioner James d. Yeamans
arrived today. Chairman Knapp said a
final report on the subject of export
rates would be rendered, but might not
be made public for ten days. The tes-
timony is all in.

Short Lines found him safely but five
times and these five were so widely
in run-getting. On the other hand,
Taylor. in the four innings he occupied
the box, was lamentably off his form,
and the Pocatellos hit him as they
pleased. Kidder replaced Taylor in the
fifth and proved an enigma to the Ida
hoans. Only twice did they find him
safely and then for scratch hits.
The game was rather slow compared
with the contest Saturday. Pocatello
acquired an insight into Taylor's de-
livery so early that the result was a
foregone conclusion after four innings.
