8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1895 THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Arnette Gained a Decision Over Mr. Jingle in a Close Finish. IT CAUSED ANOTHER HOWL. Her Majesty Managed to Beat Wal- cott a Short Nose in a Rattling Drive. Billy Donathan has another Happy Band in Alexis. Nick Hall took another shot at the moon—he becked Ryland. Mutineer pulled up bleeding slightly, after the steeplechase. A very cruel hoax was perpetrated on race- goers at the track yesterday, s tip going the rounds that Minnie Beach was a “good thing” for the second race. Tired of Tod Sloane’s watch-me-beat-the-flag tactics and after using more forbearance than any other starter in the country, Merrill yes- terday set Sloane down indefinitely. By this action Merrill no doubt misses the opportunity of being presented with a silken starter’s flag. The game at the Bay District is shortly to be re-enforced by & fresh invoice of running ma- terial from the East—a muchly needed want. Private advices state that D. A. Honig, the St. Louis horseman, has started for California with a string of fourteen racehorses and two clever light-weight jockeys, Ross and Garner. Looking over & small but select stable’s statement from the Jockey Club, one that had met with more than the ordinary amount of success in winning races, it was very plain why 80 many of the horsemen at the track are af- flicted with that contagious disease—shortness of cash. The horses of this particular stable had earned during the month of Apriland May something over $2100, yet entrance money, declarations and “‘run-ups” hadso eaten into this amount that all the disgusted owner had due him was about one-third of the amount won. And yet racing at the Bay District is cracked up as nature’s haven for the poor owner. Well, to see the large number of them touting does lend this fact color. One man was lucky and a whole lot of people were unlucky at the track yester- day. Thisone particular man was Billy Donathan, the owner of Arnette. After Mr. Jingle had beaten his filly out a good nose, which fact was coincided in by Mr. Donathan, who stood next to the judges’ stand, he had the pleasure of seeing the game Midlothian filly’s number run up over Mr. Jingle’s. With any sort of a rider the A na stable’s horse would bave won by a block, and they can blame the loss of the race to Chevalier’s bungling work in the saddle. The event was a mile and seventy-yard handicap, with five entries. McLight, with Weber up, was a well-backed 7 to 5 favorite, Arnette having second call, with Mr. Jingle third in demand. Itwasagood betting affair, all of the startets receiving more or less support. When Merrill dropped his flag the light- weighted Centurion went to the front, set- ting a merry clip. Passing the half he had a lead of two lengths with Arnette and little Cripple heads apart behind him. Turning into the stretch Little Cripple was in front, to all appearances simply gallop- ing. A furlong from home Arnette and Mr. Jingle had Cripple beaten, and raced it out between them to the wire. To all appearances Mr. Jingle won cleverly by a good nose, but Arnette was given the race. Little Cripple finished a good third. The decision did not meet the approval of all, for a large crowd collected around the stand and hooted the decision. The two-year-olds opened the card with a five and a haif furlong dash, and the finish stamps Her Majesty, the handsome aaughter of imp. True Briton, asa clinking good filly. She went to the post equal favorite in the betting with Instigator. Walcott, a sturdy looking son of the dead Peel, was strongly fancied with 16 to 5 against him. Her Majesty headed the field from the drop of the flag, and looked to be winning easily, until less than an eighth from home. Weber brought Walcott from behind with arush,and ina hard drive just missed snatching victory by a nose.” Instigator, who would not run ‘the fifst part ot the trifiv, was a fair third. acked from 8 to 5t0 6 to 5 and evens, Crawford beat the poor lot opposed to him in the second race, a seven-furlong run, and won by four lengths. Seaside, the second choice, landed in the place, about the same aistance in front of Mero. With but 112 pounds on his back the bookies certainly looked overgenerous when they laid 7 to 10 against Tim Mur- phy winning the third number on the card, a five and ah alf furlong jaunt. My- ron was expected to cut a wide swath, and so was Joe Cotton, but it was apparently not their day. Getting away third to a rather ragged start the old roan sprinter took the lead and gul]op('d in front until the last six- teenth, when he had to put forth an effort 10 stall off Banjo,a 25 to 1 shot, who got, away from the post last, and was beaten but a length. Carmel showed a surprising burst of speed at the end, finishing a fair third. At last the sulking Alexis appears to have struck a game to his liking, for at 6 to 1 in the betting, ridden by Clancy, he led the whole distance in the steeplechace and won easily a length in front of Espe- rance. Longwell, equal choice at 2% tol with Mutineer, was third. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY. SAN FraNcisco, June 5, 1895. FIRST RACE—Fiveand a half furlongs; + two-year-olds: purse $300. 99 Ind.

Two Rattling Games Played at the Occi- dental Court. The Occidental Handball Court was crowded as usual last night with ladies and their escorts. The attraction was a match. the best of three games, between J. F. Bon- net and E. Mahoney, and M. J. Kilgallon of Denver and Dennis Daly, champion of Oakland. : It was a magnificent_struggle for victory between Bonnet and Kilgallon. The latter tossed sixteen straight aces in the first game, but Bonnet got back at him in the other two games in splendid style and won the match, the score being as follows: Bonnet and Malone; 5 Kilgallon and Daly. Another rattling game was played be- tween Al Hampton and Maloney and John Purcell and J. §'elson. the two former win- ning by the following score: 8—15, 15—0, 15—14. — - POLO PLAYERS. Four Teams Selected to Play Alternate Tuesdays and Fridays. The usual monthly meeting of the Cali- fornia Swimming and Polo Club was held at the clubrooms on Tuesday evening, the 4th inst., F. W. Huntington presiding. The secretary reported that an inquiry had been made for the rules governing the Spreckels challenge cup. A schedule of practice polo games was arranged for the remainder of the month of June, four teams being selected, which will play on alternate Tuesdays and Fri- days under the captaincy of Messrs. Hun- tington, Sparrowe, Cornell and MacKillop. Tuesday evening, July 2, was selected for the first 100 yards competition for the Hinkle challenge medal, recently donated to the club by Mr. Hinkle, an active mem- ber of the polo team. ALL VAT MARUFTURES Boards of Trade and State Officials Anxious to Help Them. Arrangements to Be Made for a Grand Rally In San Francisco on June 20. From all over the State Boards of Trade are sending word to the Manufacturers’ Association of their willingness to co-op- erate in the work of encouraging Califor- | nian industries. The directors of the asso- ciation met Tuesday nightat their rooms in the Mills building. Communications were read from Oakland and Los Angeles and arrangements were made to begin the es- tablishing of branch organizations there to work in harmony with the association. The Oakland Board of Trade decided to begin its work of organizing by a big meeting, to be held at the Council cham- ber of the Oakland City Hall on Tuesday, June 11, at 8 p. M. To this they have invited the members of the Manufacturers’ Association, who they expect will address the ineeting. They have prepared a circular letter which they addressed to the merchants and manufacturers of Oakland, inviting them to be present and aid in the good work. Julian Sonntag, Oscar Lewis and Hugh Craig were selected to address the Oakiand meeting. It was also decided to attempt to have a large number of members of zge association attend in a body. A letter from the Los Angeles Board of Trade expressed thorough sympathy with the objects ot the association and a desire to co-operate. A. Jacoby, the president of the southern organization, requested that a_committee be sent to Los Angeles to ex- plain more fully the results to he accom- plished and the best methods of working, The letter said that a special meeting of the Board of Trade would be called at any time and place most convenient for the representatives from San Francisco who might visit them. The matter was left in the hands of the executive committee with power to act. Much pleasure was shown at the sentiment expressed by the Los Angeles body, and a special committee will be sent to visit the south soon. The efforts of the association to have California products used in State institu- tions wherever it is practicable have been well received at every turn. A vote of thanks was tendered Governor Budd for the sentiment expressed in his letter of May 29. The only State institution heard from so far is the Asylum for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind at Berkeley. Its principal, W. Wil- kinson, wrote the association on June 38, as follows: In answer to vour letter to the board of trus- tees of this institution, I beg to say that most of our supplies are purchased in open market, but that it is always my endeavor to purchase articles of California manufacture. Ssympa- thize most heartily with the purpose of association, and assure you of the co-operation of the :aanagement of this institution. Ernest D. Clapp of Upton, Mass., a manufacturer of straw hats, wanted in- formation as to the advisability of bring- ing capital to 8an Francisco for opening up a factory. Louis Saroni, the candy manufacturer, wrote that he had found California starch to be ‘‘highly successful and satisfactory,”” and had placed an oraer for 20,000 pounds of it. This, ne said, would be the first carload Iot of the starch that had ever been sold here. The oil-bearing lands in Oakland are to be investigated by the association on Thursday by a committee consisting of A. McLaughlin, L. Biankenhorn, J. W. Kerr and Constant Meese. J. Mills Dayies of Los Angeles and P. D. Code resigned from the board of directors because of inability to perform their du- ties. M. J. Keller was named for one of the vacant places. It was decided to hold frequent mass- meetings in order to educate the people to the necessity of concerted action. The first one will be held June 20. A commit- tee consisting of Messrs. Sonntag, Me- Laughlin, Bowers, Mead, Currier and Me- Glynn was appointed to make all necessary arrangements. The meeting was then adjourned, but reconvened for a few minutes in order to make the CALL and the other journals and newspapers that have been working with the association active members of it. ————— Jack McAuliffe Challenged. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 5—Sam Fitz- patrick, manager of Kid Lavigne, has is- sued a challenge on behalf of Lavigne to Jack McAuliffe for the lightweight cham- pionship of America aud 52500 oxg $5000. BOTH MEAN BUSIMESS, Corbett and Fitzsimmons Say They Expect to Fight at Dallas. LANKY BOB IS CONFIDENT.] Says He Intends to Show the Champion That He Is in His Class. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 5.—The pro- posed Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight remains the topic of discussion among sporting men here. Manager Brady said to-night that he was perfectly satisfied with the arrangements made by the Dallas people, and that his man would be in the ring fit and ready on the day to be fixed later in October by the Dallas people. An Asso- ciated Press reporter called on Fitzsim- mons at his residence to-night. In re- sponse to a number of questions he said: “I feel perfectly satistied that the con- test will take place at Dallas, as the busi- ness men, through their representative, seem to be on the level. “There must have been some remarks questioning my sincerity in the affair and some persons have been unkind enough to say I will weaken. I can assure you and the public as well that I am just as ready to meet Corbett as L would be to meet an inferior in the ring. Corbett, I believe, has said I was not in his class, but if Charley Mitchell was, then I certainly must be, and I cannot see where I could possibly be left out. Depend upon my word, Mr. Corbett has a big contract on his hands, and when he meets me he will tackle a better man than he has ever met before. *‘Give me a fair, trustworthy referee and I have no doubt that I shall prove myself the better man. It is just possible that 1 may weigh twenty pounds lighter than Corbett, but I can easily make up for that and our relative weights may be 168 and 187.” DALLAS, Tex., June 5.—In sporting circles the opinion is generally expressed that Corbett will do the bulk of his train- ing at Asbury Park, N. J., while Fitzsim- mons will train at Galveston. P. T. Rob- erts ““It will be the most important event in the history of Dallas. The total crop of Dailas County last year, according | to the Assessor’s report, aggregated $1,929,- 447. This glove contest will be worth more to Dallas from a dollar-and-cent stand- point than the entire agricultural product of the county for 1894. An amphitheater will be built with a seating capacity of 50,- 000. The general plan will be after the great Chicago wigwam for the Democratic convention for 1892, but fully one-fourth larger and roofless.” ON THE EASTERN TEACKS.

The Amer- ican oarsmen were in fine condition, and they said they had been greatly benefited by the trip across the ocean. They will remain at Southampton to-night and will go directly to Henley to-morrow, where a delightfully situated house has been rented for their use. The young men from Ithaca were cheered as they left the ship. He Will Organize the Teachers’ Pension Fund at Once. The Law’s Faults May Be Corrected by the Next Legls- lature. Superintendent Moulder, acting with his customary promptness, yesterday had the clerk of the board send out the following circular, ghich explains itself: To the Principals—LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: I have this day received the following reply from City and County Attorney Harry T. Creswell to a communication addressed to him by me, re- quesung his opinion as to the intent and mean- ing of the so-called “pension law.” This is to notify you that the SuPeflntsndent accepts this interpretation and will act in con- formity with it hereefter, Please notify your teachers of the contents of the accompanying opinion, and say to them further, that those who desire to avail them- selves of the benefits of the “pension law” zhould file with the Superintendent and with the secretary and with the Treasurer legal no- tice that effect without delay. ANDREW J. MOULDER, Superintendent of Common Schools. To this is attached the opinion of the City and County Attorney, as published in yesterday’s CALL. “I am very much pleased with the writ- ten opinion of City and County Attorney Creswell,” he said yesterday. “It is a clear and lucid interpretation of what must certainly be the intent of thisvery cloudy and ambiguous piece of legislation. As I declare in my circular to the princi- pals I shall accept and act uponit. By the rejection of the word ‘and’ the City and County Attorney makes sense out of It is fortunate that the opinion has come to hand in time to permit of my communicating with the teachers through the principals before the closing of school. ‘It is important that those of them who desire to avail themselves of the benefits of the law shall file notice of the fact without delay, for many reasons. In the first place yery many teachers—about 200—have al- ready given such notice, and immediately upon the opinicn of the City and County Attorney being made known very many more would sign voluntarily. The law, among its many other faults, has fixed no time under which the teacher must sub- scribe to its conditions in order to enjoy its benefits. Those who wanted to be mean about it could, if the law remained as it is, wait until the eleventh hour, until they had been in the service for twenty or twenty-five vears and stand in fear of be- ing retired for inca; acity and then,turning in the 1 per cent oF their salary just once, retire with the pension. ““Of course,” continued the Superintend- ent, “‘these faults of the law will be’ cor- rected, doubtless at the next sitting of the Legislature, but it is important that the teachers who desire at any time to avail themselves of this law shall come in at once, so that the best possible showing may be made before the law-makers. In these two years pending their sitting, it is not likely that the Annuity Commission, as it is called—composed of the Mayor, the Superintendent and the County Treasurer —will place anybody on the retired pension list, one reason being that there will be no fund in that time. **But we want to recognize this law and have it in {zractical working order with some tangible results, such as will warrant us in going before the next Legislature and asking it to put the law in more practical shape. 3 “Es earnest were many of the teachers in their desire to put this thing to the test that the{ were considering the idea of starting it on a private basis on the lines as far as possible as indicated by the law, in case the law were declared inoperative, and with the results of this going to the next Legislature with the promise of turn- ing the funds so raised over to the Treas- urer in case a legal law, so to _speak, were enacted. I am glad to say this will not now be necessary, and we will fo abead under the law as interpreted by the City and County Attorney. o ——————— Disquieting reports of the outbreak of choleng in Arabia have been received.

IGNATIUS COLLEGE, The Commencement Exercises Held Last Night in Ex~ hibition Hall. AWARDING OF THE MEDALS. An Address to the Graduating Stu- dents by Ex-Judge J. F. Sulllvan. The large hall of 8t. Ignatius College was crowded to its utmost last night by an au- dience assembled to witness the thirty- sixth commencement exercises of the col- lege students. After an overture by the orchestra Sam- uel Poorman Jr. of the class of 95 deliv- ered the salutatory in Latimn, acquitting himself very creditably. He was followed by Cyril Williams Jr. of the class of ’95, who deliverea a lecture on the sources of heat, during which was given an interesting account of the man- ner in which heat is generated. The young lecturer, assisted by John Mulrenin and Francis Reichling, of the class of '96, gave a number of experiments to illustrate Datural and artificial heat. Those show- ing the production of heat by electricity were particularly instructive. Then Luke J. Flynn of the class of '95 gwe a lecture on the transmission of heat. e also illustrated his remarks by a num- ber of interesting experiments to show how heat is transmitted in the air cur- rents in the ocean. He concluded his en- tertaining lecture by an_exhibition of the new illuminant called asceteline gas, which he declared was the first time it had been shown on this coast. The flame was much whiter than that of ordinary gas and four times more powerful. It has been demonstrated he said that it can be manufactured so as to sell for less than $2 a thousand feet, and expressed the hope that the gas company will soon manu- facture it. Ex-Judge J. F. Sullivan delivered an ad- dress to the graduates, during which he spoke of the advance of the college in the past year in instruction and conduct, and said that nothing could please him better than the further advancement of the col- lege in which he had graduated in the sey- enties. He paid a glowing tribute to the venerable Father Maraschi, one of the pioneer teachers in the college. He spoke of the advance of education, and said that the United States shows a greater percent- age than any other country. He also said that education must have moral support, and that religious instruction must go hand in hand with education. % The orchestra gave several excellent selections after which the medals, degrees, and prizes were awarded by Rev. Edward Allen, 8.J., the president of the college. lRrev. Henry Woods, 8.J., reading the long ist.

The news that Carrie Clark Warde is suing for a divorce from her husband, James M. Warde, has considerably sur- prised friends and acquaintances of the couple in this City, for to casual observers they] have always passed as a devoted couple. People who have traveled in their com- anies, however, and intimate friends have en aware for some time that the Wardes had fre%{xent disputes, and they say that if Mrs. Warde had not applied for ax{ivome her husband would have done so. It is alleged in the complaint that James is in the habit of using cruel and abusive lanilugg to his wife, and in discussing the plication for divorce in the foyers of the theaters last night, many people remem- ber instances that went to prove that ‘Warde is haughty and overbearing. On the other hand people who had traveled with them remembered that Mrs. XVQ:;‘de had sometimes been a thorn in the B e S DR’ GOODS. Y (BSTABLISEED 1862.)
