took advantage of the fact that no one
was paying particular attention to third,
and kept right on running. The veteran
Icy was good for a triple, and AltiZer
scored
There was no more run getting until
the seventh inning. though every inter-
vening round found White Sox on the
paths on account Of GroOms inability to
locate the pan. He opened the seventh
inning by hitting one of Davy AltiZer's
spindles, and followed this by passing
DIR. White. This ended his performance
and Oil was called to the mound. The
newcomer into the Nationals camp got
whole bunch of fancy shakes and side
steps out of his system, but he hitched
his trousers at frequent intervals, and
on the whole, did very well. He was
poWeriess to prevent one additional run.
Isbell advanced both Altizer and White
Altizer scored from third while Donohue
was retiring Dougherty. Oil is cred
tied with two strikeouts in the eighth
inning, but he climbed into rather deep
cavity on his own account in the ninth
Altzer and White had been retired in
this inning, when Isbell, Dougherty and
Purteil made successive singles. But the
threatened rally did not materialize fur
tier. Tannehill ending the round by
sending sharp bounder to Conroy, on
which Purtell was retired at second.
Hits Thrown Away.
The Nationals did not have chance
until the fourth inning. and even then
two hits were wasted, as none of the
runners could get past second base. ely
mer opened the inning with hit which
was too difficult for AtZ to handle but
he was forced at second by Donohue
Unglaub flied out to DIR. White and Dele
nanty made hit. Milan ended the in
ming by going out, Smith to Isbell. With
one down in the fifth Mcbride sent a
binsle into right garden, but he was left
at first when Street and Groom sent I'D
cloud scrapers. Clymer made another hit
in the eighth inning, but he remained at
first because Donohae and Ungiaub were
poWerless with the willow. Most of the
fans were homeward bound when Conroy
made a hit. with two out, in the ninth
inning, and only few remained to see
Mcbride end the spasm with a bounder
to Tannehill.

COMMENT ON THE GAMES.

The opportune hit was a missing
quantity again yesterday. 1t failed to
materialize on several occasions when
bingle would have meant one or more
runs. One lone safety in the seventh
inning of the first game. after Browne
had gone all the way to third. with
only one out, would have tied the score
and given the Nationals a chance to win
out, but Unglaub failed to deliver the
goods. Mcbride was not equal to the
occasion in the eighth inning after Con-
roy had reached first on Burns error
and stolen second. These were practi-
cally the only chances the locals had in
the first game.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1909-08-01


Milan's promise of return to life
with the willow, as evidenced by his
swatting in the game Friday, evidently
was an evanescent quantity. for he fail
ed at a critical time in the fourth in
leaving Donohue and Delehanty on the
bases.
Too bad McBrides error and Walter
Johnson's only wild pitch should have
been coupled up so as to produce Chi
cagos lone tally in the initial contest.
Save for this wobble Johnson and Burns
might have been pitching yet. As 1t
was, Burns had only a shade the better
og the argument with Johnson, but wi IN
pitching yesterday that shade was
enough to decide the victory. Burns
came mighty near getting a record of
a no hit and no run game, because
Brownies safety in the seventh inning
was of the scratchiest variety. and ely
mer's single in the ninth was really
the only clean hit to be scored against
the ex-NatiOnal. In the official score
the play which enabled Browne to reach
second base in the seventh round was
ner reaching first because Burns slip
ped and could not field the ball in time
and advancing to second on the pitchers
wild throw over IsbelIs head.
Much Joy in the camp of the fans
Otis Clymer's long lay-off on account
Of his injury seems to have affected
not at all his fielding and batting eye.
Otis got into the game after Browne
had been ordered to the clubhouse for
disputing Umpire Evans decision at
third. and in five times at bat in the
eleven innings in which he officiated he
secured three safe hits.
Clymer made easily the star fielding
play of the day when he robbed Frank
Smith of a triple. Smith was the last
man to bat in the sixth inning and he
met one Of Groom's shoots fairly on the
nose At the crack of the bat Clymer
dug his toes into the turf. put his head
down and started on a dead run for the
fence He timed the hit perfectly, and
took the ball with his gloved hand as 1t
sailed over his shoulder.
1t was evident that Pitcher Oil was
running with his speed cluth jambed
down, his throttle wide open and his
sparker turned at fifty to the minute
fwhatever that may mean. Or 1t may be
that the position of clown in general tc
the American League, made vacant by
the Punishment of the only Nicholas Al
trock, has an aspirant who is alive to
the opportunity. Oily brought out a
| many smiles yesterday as the only Nick
did in his palmiest days. He was as full

Mineral Production

The value of the mineral output of
Alaska in 1909 is estimated at 500 200, =
900. practically the same as that of
1908, which was 20,139,272. The esti-
mated value of the gold output of 1909
was S19, 100000; that of 1908 was S19,-
292,S1S. The copper production of 1903
was approximately 100000 pounds,
valued at about $520,0O0; that Of 1908
was 4,5S5,362 pounds, valued at $602, ,267.
Probably the output of none of the
other mineral products, including sill
Yer, coal, marble and gypsum. differed
greatly from that of 1908, when the to-
tai value was S2441S9.
From 1880, when mining first began
in Alaska, to the close of 1909, the to-
tai value Of the mineral products has
been, in round numbers $16S, 600, 900. OF
this amount the gold mines have con-
tributed about $161 900, 000 the CONNER
cial value of the silver output has been
about S1,200,000 and the copper produc-
tion has been about $4,700, 000 The re-
mainder is represented by the value of
the output of coal gypsum, tin and
marble.

Old Galena Camp

The old mining camp of Galena. mid
way between Battle mountain and Ban
mock, New. is to be revived by French
syndicate which has taken over the
White and Shiloh mines. according to
the Battle Mountain Herald.
The White and Shiloh produced some
millions of high-grade silver-lead ores
in the early days. Application of mod
ern methods of mining and treatment
to the large bodies Of ore of lower
grade which were left untouched bv the
early operators will, it is believed,
bring profitable results.
The Galena Mining company, of
which 10. l.. Labadie is manager, owns
the old group of sixteen claims.
Through Labadies influence a noted
French expert, in behalf Of a strong
French syndicate, visited the district I'm
August.
The experts tests and reports were
so satisfactory that the French syndi-
cate viii finance the Galena Mining
company in order to undertake extern
sive development work and again bring
the old mines into the line of produc-
tion.

PALMER GUSHER IS
GREAT PRODUCER
AVERAGE IS 1900 BARRELS
A DAY
OIL is COMING THROUGH SIX
INCH CASTINGS
Expectation Is That No. 2 Well viii
Come in Stronger-5usy Times
in the Kern Dis
trict

News from Bakersfield is to the eff
feet that the Palmer gusher is still
going about the same pace, which for
the last thirty days has averaged from
1400 to 1900 barrels a day. This is
what the well has settled down to as
steady thing since the bottom 41a-
inch casting has been shut off by the
/ inner tubing at the depth of 2775 feet
This demonstrates that the oil comes
in through the six-inch casing between
24O0 and 2775 feet. The regularity Of
the flow is accounted for by the fact
that the enormous gas pressure which
comes from the bottom of the hole at
depth of 5000 feet is not so strong at
depth of 2775 feet. The gravity is
also conclusive proof that the oil comes
from this depth, as it is one-half of
one degree lighter at the bottom of the
well.
No effort will be made to remove
the tubing as long as the steady flow
makes it dangerous to attempt to re-
move the obstruction.
The No. WELL which is only 500 feet
from No. /, is close to the 2400-foot
mark and the formation closely re-
sembles No. l at the same depth in it's
oil sands and the bituminous shale and
gas pressure. There is every indication
that No. will come in as a gusher
when the right depth is reached.

Looking to the Future

Two propositions of interest to the
oil producers of California have been
taken up by the Los Angeles chamber
of mines for consideration with a view
of arriving at some definite attitude to
be assumed by the chamber in the
premises One of the propositions is
that of making an effort to have the
Mexican government remove the duty
on fuel oil entering that country from
the United states, thereby providing a
considerable market for California oil
in certain parts of the republic.
The other proposition is that of pend
ing legislation in congress in connection
with the disposal of oil lands On this
subject the chamber wishes the oil men
to come right out and say whether they
want new oil bill or not, so that some
definite stand may be taken to bring
about the desired result-Oil Industry.
