SHIPPING COMBINATION
 TO FIGHT MORGAN
British Flnanciers Hope to Be Able to Hold Their Own In Controllinq
 Atlantic and Pacific Trade,

New York, June H.-The British ship ping combination, which intends to com rete with the Morgan syndicate for the North Atlantic and Pacific freight and passenger business, is now practically corsummated according to the London correspondent of the Herald. Many re- ports of rhe formation of tho new syndi- cate, more or less accurate, have appeared In the last week. On good authority the following details are given:
 Sir Christopher Furness is to be the head of the new combination. It is to be centralized at 92O, ,0Oo (slO0. .0O0 0OG). The Cunard Company Is included in the deal.
 The British government has agreed to largely increase the present subsidies, while Canada promises at least 92O0000 yearly Six large passenger boats capa- ble of 25 knots an hour are to be built. also a dozen IS knot frelghters at an ag- gregate cost of &S.500000.
 The entire capital is said to have been underwritten. One well known capitalist who offered to take up a big block of the stock was told that the whole amount had been subscribed.
 In the minds of those who support the scheme the Atlantic aspect Is not great or than the Pacific. The main idea Is the utilization of the Canadian Pacific railroad as the chief link in a chain bringing Australia India, China and Ja- nan into nearer and more intimate touch with England and providing an all- English route shorter than any at pres ent available.

 The game was in every way liner exhibition of polo than either Of It's predecessors. The ground. though soft and lather dead, was better than was To have been expected. Botn teams meant to do their best and the race WAS fast throughout. There was net n.rth apparent supti:ority in tho English ponies, yet they were rather faster ana. perhaps, handler, but 1t Is only fair to attribute the English vic tory chiefly to two things-George Miller's good explaining and Buckma s- ter's great game. The American team has stCcd well together ana in the long run the way they backed each other was beyond praise. Keenc was brilliant and never m his life played a finer geme.
 It is curious to note that, on the whole, the Americans failed ill that whic. was their strong point-th cir defense.

Today's Game.

The contest this afternoon be-
tween O. A. c. and McMinnville
College is the last game but one
scheduled to be played on Agri-
cultural field this season. On
Thanksgiving day the farmers
play on the home field with Pa

team is conceded to be one of the
strongest in the state, yet Nc
Minnyille held it to a nothing to
nothing score in the first half of
the game played by these teams
at Forest Grove last Saturday.
The experience gained in that
game will be of great assistance
to McMinnville and good hard
contest may be expected tomor-
row.
An Interesting feature will be
the opportunity to get line on
the team O. A. c. is to play
on Thanksgiving. McMinnville
having held P. U. down to a 1o

to see what difficulty the farmers
experience in piling up as many
points.
