The clever colored boy made a combina- tion with all of his mounts for a place, and after the fourth race cashed his ticket calling for $300 against $10.

HUNTERS QUAY, Scorraxp, July 11.— The Ailsa and the Britannia started to-day in a race over the usual course. Both boats carried -headed topsails and all their lower sails. The wind was strong from the south. They crossed the line very mnearly together. The Britannia worked to the windward and obtained the weather berth of the Ailsa, which she held at Skelmorlie, that mark being rounded as folle Britannia, 11:07:55; Ailsa, 11:08:50. From Skelmorlie it was a dead heat to Ascog. The wind was blowing strong, and the race at this point was ciose and ex- citing. The Britannia rounded Ascog at 11:45:05 and the Ailsa at 11:46:09. The boats were running free under light wind, with spinnakers and jib topsails set. The Britannia continued to hold a lead of about three clear lengths. The Britan- nia rounded Kilcreggan at 12:52:20 and the Ailsa at 12 5. It was now a dead heat 5. | for the commodore’s boat, the Britan- nia holding close to the Ailsa’s weather. The commodore’s boat was rounded as follows: Britannia, 1 21; Ailsa, 1:13:35. The Britannia rounded Skelmorlie at 2:18:10 and the Ailsa at 2:20:45. Round- ing Ascog the Britannia was still further in the lead. The rounding was made at these times: Britannia, 2:50:07; Ailsa 2 48. Both boats were becalmed for an hour after passing Ascog, when a light breeze sprang up and they moved slowly up the channel, the Britannia a long way in the art of the race was very slow, indeed. The Britannia got the best of the wind and increased her lead greatly, rounding Kilcreggan too far in advance to be caught up with. The times of rounding Britannia, the lenre%gan mark were: 5:06:27; Ailsa, 5:29: The wind was won, finishing at The twenty-raters also started, the Da- | kotah at 10:45:07, the Niagara at 10:45:15 and the Zinita at 10:45:33. The Eucharist did not start. The twenty-raters finished the first round in this order: Zinita Niagara 5:40, Dakotah 12:25: The Zinita had a good lead over the Niagara on the way to the weather mark on the second round. The Niagara gained the lead on the beat to windward and held it to_the finish, winning_ with se. They finished this way: Ni 26:21, Zinita 2:27:49, Dakotah 2:38:05, FAIR'S STOLEN WILL. Captain Lees and Private Detectives in Consultation Till Midnight—No New Developments. | Captain Lees and Private Detective Cur- | tin were in consultation yesterday after- | noon and last night in connection with the | stolen will of Senator Fair. During the night W. H. Davis, the con- fidential clerk of Private Detective S8til- | well, visited the captain’s office accompan- ied by Chief Deputy County Clerk Piper. Davis is the man who was mixed up in the | Toss of the will. He and Piper were closeted with Captain Lees for more than an hour late at night, and after he left the door closed again on Curtin_and Lees, who remained together | till midnight. |~ Captain Lees stated that nothing new | had developed in the matter, and, though all sorts of rumors about arrests made during the evening had been circulated connecting the prisoners with the theft of the will, he denied that the arrests had any connection whatever with the case.

PROTEST AGAINST MONOPOLY. The Petition of the Point Lobos Im- provement Club for Red Rock Denled. The Street Committee®of the Board of Supervisors met yesterday, Messrs. Hughes, Dunker, Morgenstern and Benja- min being present. Hughes presided and the session, which began at 11:30 o’clock, lasted until after 5. The Point Lobos Im- provement Company had two important petitions before the body, both of which were denied. It desired to have the office of City lngineer vacated and a new one created, and also to have the macadam or- dinance eliminated in so far as it affected the pavement of certain property in the district. Attorney Kellopg and Engineer Schuss- ler appeared on behalf of the Spring Val- ley Water Comvpany to protest against changing and lowering the grade on Seventh avenue and H street. Attorney Kellogg begged the committee to defer action on the matter. saying that the board would be enjoined if the work was ordered. Engineer Schussler said that the work was unnecessary and it would entail a vast amount of useless trouble in moving the mains, and would place the gmire Western Addition at the mercy of re. The main in question, he said, was the main artery of the water supply in that portion of the City. The change of the grade was asked for, he said, in order to vain another entrance to the park, which, te understood, the Commissioners would not permit. He had spoken to Chief Sulli- van, who assured him that the shutting off of the water supply would be a very dangerous proceeding. Further debate of {.,be matter was postponed until Septem- er 5. The protest of the Point Lobos Tmprove- ment Club against the rattler test of rock obtaining where pavements are to bhe laid in and around Point Lobos avenue and in the Richmond district was next heard. George R. Fletcher, superintendert of the Odd Fellows’ cemetery, voiced the objections of the property-owners. He said that portion of the City was growing, that considerable improvements were now in the course of progress. Sewers had been laid and if blue rock were now to be put in it would be at great loss to the property- owners. He asked that the macadam ordinance be not made to apply to that district. For years the people had been satisfied with the red rock macadam and were still satisfied with it. Gray Bros., he said, handled the only rock which could stand the rattler test, and consequently there could be no competition for the work. There would be long hauls of material and the contractqrs could charge any price they pleased” On the otheér hand, the material which is being used is easily accessible and the property-owners will have their pavements laid at a reasonable figure. he committee took the matter under advisement, and later in the afternoon de- nied the petition on the ground that its predecessors had ruled the same way and that it saw no reason to change. The City Improvement Company asked to be released from its contract to pave Scott street, between Hayes and Fell. The Market-street Railway Company, it was stated, had removed ‘its tracks, but had not relinquished its franchise. A legal question, consequently, had arisen as to whether the Market-street Company should pay its proportion of the expenses. The petition was referred to the Superintendent of Streets, to ascertain the obligations of the Market-street Railway Company and to require it to pay for the portion to which it had a franchise. A petition was received from the Point Lobos Improvement Club, asking for the appointment of a City Engineer. The office is now filled by statute by the Sur- veyor. The petition dwelt on the impera- tive necessity of having such an officer in the employ of the City. “Questions of importance,” it noted, ‘‘have arisen which have shown that your honorable board has had no engineering talent on its staff to meet the corporations and governing bodies which had been cailed into existence within this City.” Attention is then called to the engineers of the water and railroad companies, and the employment of an engineer by the Harbor Commissioners. The petition cites that the board, in a few days, will be asked to place hundreds of thousands of dollars in the hands of inexperienced men to make streets, roads and boulevards. The engineer of the City, it is said,should bea member ex-officio of the Board of Health and the Board of Fire Commission- ers. In conclusion the board was asked to adopt and pass such resolutions to estab- lish the office to be governed by the rules of the civil service; to be composed of an engineer in charge, one or more draughts- men and a secretary, all the appointments to be made by the engineer. The engineer shall pass on the qualifica- tion of inspectors of public work and the Superintendent of Streets shall be answer- able for the faithful performanceof the duties assigned to the inspectors. The 1dea of the petitioners, it was said, is to create the office of engineer for Pro- fessor George Davidson in compliment to the work he has done for the Pacific Coast. The committee decided that the board had no authority to declare the position of City Engineer vacant as it was fixed by statute, Property-owners on Page street, between Fillmore and Market, appeared before the committee to inquire if the Market-street Railway Company intended building a street railroad according to the terms of its franchise. They desired to have the street paved, they said, and were desirous of knowing the position of the railroad company. The clerk was instructed to ascertain what the company proposed doing with the franchise. It was decided to report in favor of the protest against the grading of Eighth street between Division and §(ing and the protest of Georie K. Frink against paving the crossing of Berry and Fifth. The following petitions will be reported favorably: P. H. Livingston, to erect and maintain an electric-light sign at 415 Kearny street; William Hannagan, to re- move a building from Chestnut street, be- tween Mason and Taylor, to the corner of Montgomery avenue and Krancisco street; property-owners, against paving Howa: street, from Twenty-fifth to Twenty-sixth; David Kelleher, to contract with the City for constructing a sewer 1n Van Ness av- enue, between Lombard and Greenwich streets; J. J. Flyon, to contract with the City for a sewer in Thirteenth avenue, be- tween California and Ciement ;streets; Fropert y-owners, for the removal of rock rom Tenth avenue, between Railroad avenue and M street south; E. Donnelly, to blast at 417 to 421 Green street. Upon the recommendation of the Street Superintendent it was decided to report in favor of the acceptance of the following streets: Bay, from Hyde to Larkin; Broderick, from Geary to O’Far- rell, and from Clay to Washington; Con- verse, fram Brannan northerly; I‘flight, from Lyon to Lott; Jackson, from Baker to Lyon; Jones, from Clay to Washington; Octavia, from Filbert to Greenwich; Pieice, from Fulton to McAlhster; Scott, from Oak to Fell; Twenty-first, from Capp to Howard, and from Mission to Capp- Union, from Stemer to Pierce; Vande- water, from Mason to Taylor; crossings of Broderick and O'Farrell, Bay and Hyde, Broadway and Steiner, Jones and Washington, Twenty-first and _Ca : D! Union and fPierce, and Walter and Bros: erick; also, the conditional acceptance of Mariposa terrace, from Harrison north- westerly. An amendment was made to the street ordinance providing that when basalt blocks are to be laid on grades under 6 w:rd cent, concrete foundations must be used. A CASE OF EVICTION. T. B. Mills and His Family Turned Out Into the Street for Arrears of Rent. T. B. Mills, 118 Fell street, called at volice headquarters last night, and re- ported a case of evietion that had the ele- ments of cruelty in it. He had been living for some time in the house, which isrented by Mrs. J. W, Telfer. He works along the water front and has a hard struggle to support his wifeand two young children, the youngest being only six weeks old. He was in arrears with the rent of his room to the extent of §9. Mrs. Telfer had been pressing him for payment, and on Wednesday night he gave her $L 50, and promised to pay the balance next week. He thought this was satisfac- tory, and went to his work yesterday morn- ing thinking his troubles were over for the time being. Last night when he reached home he found his wife and two children in the street, the latter with only their night- gownson. Just as his wife was puttin, the children to bed Mrs. Telfer decoye her out of the house. Then one of Mrs. Telfer's male roomers passed the two children out of the front window to her and left them standing on the street not knowing what to do. Mills tried to get the landlady to take them inside, but she refused, and he did not know what to do as be had no money to go anywhere else. Mills after telling his story broke down when he was told that the police could do nothing for him and went away in search of a place to shelter his wife and children. RACES AT ASBURY PARK, An Exciting Heat in the Mile Championship Ends in a Tie. Eddy Bald Takes the Mile Open Event and Butler the Two- Mile Dash. ASBURY PARK, N. J., July 11.=The rain which fell this morning upon the trial heats of the first day’s racing of the League of American Wheelmen'’s National meet ceased before the afternoon’s work began, although lowering clouds lingered and damp breezes threatened during the entire session. The weather, however, had little diminishing effect upon the crowd which filled the grand stand and went a large way out on the new bleachers. The officers of the day included Referee Albert Motti, Baltimore; ‘judges—Fred Gerlach, member racing board, Chicago; Robert Gentle, chief consul, New Jersey; G. A. Perkins, vice-president League of American Wheelmen, Boston; timers— A. A. Zimmerman, Manasquan; Sterling Elliot, chief consul, Massachusetts division, Boston; C. F. Wilson, Mountclair, N. J.; starter, C. A. Dimon, Philadelphia; handi- cagper, 8. W, Merrihew. The racing was all of a high order, and unexpectedly free from accidents, con- sidering the dangerous bunkin{: on the turns, The main interest to-day lay in the single professional event. Zimmerman and Wheeler paced on a_tandem, which Fred Stone caught, with Berlo, Starbuck, Eaton, Bartholomew, Cutter and McCurd lagging on in the oraer named. The pace was t00 hot, however, and Stone soon lost the tandem and fell at, the three-quarters. Berlo did the rest alone. However deserving of attention the pro- fessional event may have been, as a novelty and curio, the best racing and liveliest performances were seen in the class B con- tests, Cabanne having been laid out in a heat of the morning, Bald, McDonald, Titus and Gardiner were left to fight it out in three races—a half-mile, a mile open and the two-mile National championship. The first heat of the mile was a ‘‘beauty.” McDonald, Titus, Scott and Earl started. Earl made the gait for the first half, when McDonald went up, taking Titus with him. These giants hung to each other until the quarter pole, at which post Titus ran out and gamed twenty yards before McDonald saw him. Then came a memor- able rush down the stretch, McDonald gaining at every inch and Titus forging along like a Kansas cyclone. The men almost touched elbows as they “flashed over the tape at the same instant, Monte Scott beating Earle easily for third place. The judges announced it a dead heat. The other heats were less exciting. Dur- ing the afternoon Mayo and Saunders, and the two Johnsons, Louis and Ernie, went 1n to pace, respectively, the halves of the two-mile National championship, in which Coulter, Gardiner, Nat Butler, Kiser, Stowe, Caldwell and Terrell started. Little Kiser and Gardiner made a game fight for the tandem at the push-off and Kiser gotit. At a yard from the mark Butler jumped ahead and the others came over with wheels lapping. In the mile open, Bald, the Columbia crack, sustained his reputation for this sort of thing, although he had his hands full in doing so, for Titus showed his old form and came within an inch or two of the prize. It wasa great day’s sport, but bet- (tier is promised for to-morrow and Satur- ay. This evening the annual Bar Carnival is being held on Wesley Lake, eclipsing all former water pageants.
