The Wants of the Coast.

Spokane, WASH, Oct. 6.-Speak-
ing at a banquet given by the. Spo-
kane chamber of commerce in honor
OF the Seattle chamber of commerce
and officers of the Alaska-Yukon-Pa-
cific Exposition association in Spo-
kane the other night, United States
Senator Samuel H. Piles said that
the Pacific northwest is entitled to
more consideration from congress
than heretofore. He added that at
a conference of executives Of COM
mercial organizations in San Fran
cisco, Oct. 5, an effort will be made
to urge upon the representa- tives in
congress to vote together upon every
question pertaining to the Pacific
slope. It is no alliance to oppose
general legislation, he added, but to
better understand one another. He
said in part:
I'VE want three or four drydocks,
and the Pacific coast is entitled to a
feet. We need Improvements of the
vast waterways, and we want the
Snahe and Columbia rivers opened
SO they will furnish competitive
commerce and competition for rail
roads like the great water courses
of Europe. We are entitled to this
consideration from the fact that this
is the only land that ever became
a part of the nation which was no,
fought or paid for. 1t was the vol
untary contribution of the sturdy
pioneers and cost no blood or treas
ure.'

day S base ball game which was play
ed in deadly earnest. 1t was straight
base ball with no frills The day
was ideal and the Giants were out
played by Chicago, who were fresh
from rest and well judged practice,
and the coaching was superb in
form, brilliant. errorless fielding,
snappy base running and opportune
hitting in the third inning which
was made effective by double play
by Chance and won the game.
New York could not hit at critical
times. Matthewson, the favorite Of
favorites, could not keep his invin-
chile arm in power and the effect of
the moments in which 1t lapsed in
the third could not be overcome. The
| two great innings of the game were
the third and seventh. Ir the for
mer Chicago made all it's runs. In
the latter New York filled the bases,
but were able to score but one run.
| Pfejster started the game for Chica-
go, but lasted less than one inning
when Brown took his place and fin
ished the game.
One man was killed and another
| seriously injured and many per-
sons hurt during a scramble to
secure points of vantage from
which to view the game and in the
rush into the field when the last New
York batter was put out. A city
! fireman lost his life by falling from
an elevated pillar outside of the
grounds. The list of persons injured
| cannot be compiled as their injuries
| consist OF sprains and bruises sus-
tanned in the crowding to get seats
and in the riots that occurred at the
conclusion Of the game.
