NORTHWESTERN LEAGUE.
Standing OF the Teams.

Almost duplicating Mccain
ment's trick of the opening game
by holding the smuggling Indians
to one hit Charley Schmutz did
shut them out and won his own
game yesterday afternoon by his
great two-bagger over the right
felder's head.
Up to the eighth inning
Schmutz kept the enemy down to
one hit, single by Coney in the
first round. Three more came in
the next two rounds but they did
not co-nt.
Tacoma was not doing anything
that looked like a score either I'M
til the eighth. Several times the
boys got on base and it looked
good but Killilay always tighten
ed up and famed couple or had
them popping up to the infeld
when it looked dangerous.
Schmutz Hits Two-Bagger.
III tnC ClEhLhs hOnCNSAt
Schmutz was the first man up. He
stepped to the plate and smote
the ball clear to the right fence.
1t put him on second.
The fans were SO surprised at
the feat that they hardly realized
what had happened for Schmutz'
hits are very few and far between.
But he got there at the right time
yesterday. Warren hunted him
to third and then Mott came along
with his third hit for the day and
brought him home. Rockenfield
added another hit which put Mott
on third and himself on second
and then Lynch raped the ball
right where Schmutz had. Frisk
made an awful run, suck his
hands over his shoulder and grab
bde 1t, ending the inning and shut
ting off two good runs. Tacoma
had enough, however.
The game was full of sensa-
tonal fielding. Warren was the
star. He robbed Nordyke of a
great hit by making flying leap
into the air in left, stopping a line
drive with his gloved hand and
then caught it as it fell. Score:

Record Airship Flight.

DOVER, June 2.-Cspt. Charles s..
Rolls, the English aviator, today flew
from here to San Gate, France, and
returned without stopping across the
English channel.
This is an unprecedented feat. Louis
Bleriot and Count DeLesseps crossed
the channel from France to England, ,
but never before has q continuous
flight between England and France
and return been made.
Rolls left Dover at $50 o'clock and
10 splendid time reached the French
cosst. He circled twice over San
Gate cliffs, near Calais, and then with.
out stopping his engine turned his
aeroplane back to the British shore.
The distance across the channel is 81
miles; so Captain Rolls accomplished
an over.water dight OF AZ miles, max
ing new record for this psrticul arly
dangerous course.

Against Director Newell.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-The effort
by Ballinger to oust Director Newell
from the head Of the reclaim alton ser.
vice has taken q new slant. Three In.

committee, provides that Presiden,
Taft may assign army engineers to

in committee against this insidious
provision. which, be declared. was
aimed at Newell's decspitstion, bu,

a minority report. Newell has many
friends in the senate and II the plan
to fire him is pushed it will create q
