An extra session of the Legislature is now the Governor’s only hope of making good his word that there shall be no meet- ing of Corbett and Fitzsimmons anywhere in Arkans: If he should persist in send- ing the militia into this county without being called upon to do so the local peace officers will see that they do not damage either life or property. Attorney-General Kinsworthy has been here all day engaged in the work of getting the appeal papers ready to take the case to the Supreme Court to-morrow. The tran- scripts were completed this evening, and the Attorney-General will leave for the capital on the early morning train. In an interview he stated that, as the Governor was exceedingly anxious to_have the legal aspect of the question decided, in all probabilities the Supreme Court would re- view the papers at once, but he could not say when a decision would be given. He stated that he was perfectly satisfied with the decision of Chdncellor Leatherman; that the decision was not unexpected; that the Chancellor could not well give any other opinion than he did under the proof made. He also stated that, in the event that the Supreme Court affirmed the de- cision of the Jower court, that would end all interference on the part of the Gov- ernor, so far as the law is concerned. ‘What other steps, if any, the Governor contemplated taking, the Attorney-Gen- eral would not say. The written demurrer to the petition of Corbett was filed to-day. Itis a mere de- nial of tke fact that the petitioner has stated sufficient facts to entitle him to a writ of habeas corpus as prayed for. A meeting of the Florida Athletic Club will take Flnce t0-morrow morning at 11 o’clock, when Martin Julian will be pres- ent and be heard anent the proposed postponement of the meeting and change of rounds, the decision to be on scientific voints. The very best feelings do not seem to exist between Julian and the offi- cers of the Florida Athletic Club at pres- ent. The latter claim that Julian had no forfeit money up on Fitzsimmons and that if it does not put in an appearance he will forfeit nothing but his time. Julian ciaims that neither he nor Fitzsimmons have been treated just right in the affair; that they have not been consulted as to y of the proposed changes, and that ey have been accused of having nothing @p on the fight. He says that Fitzsim- ®onsis in splendid condition and that ewing to the difference in the weather be- ween here and Corpus Christi he é:es not think it best to bring him here fore the day of the fight. “What do you think of the revised arti- cles of agreement ?” *“I do not like them at all. We agreed to fight a finish battle to see who is en- titled to the championship, and the arti- cles provide for a soft-glove contest for a limited number of rounds. I do not in- tend to sign the new articles of agreement atall. It will be a fight to a finish or no fight at all. Imake this statement most positively.” “‘What about postponing the- contest to some later day 7’ I object to that also. We agreed to fight on'October 31. I will have Fitzsim- mons_here on that day ready to go into the ring and fight. If the other parties are not ready we will claim the forfeit, ac- cording to contract. Then, if they want to make other arrangements, we will ac- commodate them, but this fight must be | brought off according to agreement or not | at all.” It isclaimed by some that you have no forfeit money up. How is that?”’ “The money was placed in the hands of the stakeholder all right. All of it but as been attached. holder aliowed it to be done, I do not another $10,000 to put up as a side bet where it cannot be attached by anybody.” —— TO FIGHT IN The Great Fistic Battle May Take Place Near Paso Del Norte. A dispatch from El Paso, Tex., to Tue CALL states that the Corbett and Fitzsim- mons proposed right, of which so mnch has been said and written, will positiyely take place in the first week of December at Paso del Norte, on Mexican soil. Com- plete arrangements have been made wi h the proper authorities for the “pulling off”’ of this championship battle between the giants of the ring, and in conjunction with the gre istic jubilee a bull-fight, the like of which has never yet been witnessed in Mexico, will comprise one of the many sporting events of the day and evening.

High-Class Horses Have Been Entered in All the Events of the Coming Keeting. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 20.—The city is to-night full of horsemen from all parts of the State, gathered to attend the annual meeting of the Sixth District Fair Associa- tion which begins on Monday. The entries are unusually numerous, and the best horses from all over the State as well as many from the East have been entered. Some of the greatest performers of the year will start. The purses are liberal and encouraging to good racing. On account of the meeting being held so late in the season it will bring together the best horses on the coast. year-old pace Monday are en- test lot of two-year-old pacers ed a starter. trot, among others which will are the great three-vear-old Doctor nd Ja yers, together with Jas- per Paulsen, Hillsdale, 2:15; Myrtle Thorne, ive State, George Dex- ter, Irene Crocker and Pasadena Belle. The fourth event, the 2:25 trot, with ten entries, has among its entries some of the best product of the great breeding farms of the State, representing the great Stamboul, Wilkes, Almont Medium, Albert Weichard’s Elector, Silver Bowl and San I - . With Silkwood, Seymour Wilkes, W. Wood, Diablo, and Directiy, the world’s champion two and three-year-old pacer, and the great Waldo J. in the free-for-all pace, it will certainly be a great event, as the horses are the best in the State. Zom- bro, possibly the greatest three-year-old of this or any other year, is a contestant in the 2:13 trot, having for his competitors Boodle, by Stranger; the great race mare, Ethel Downs, winner of the hotly con- tested five-heat pace at Santa Ana last week; Visalia, the fast -and game four- vear-old. and Nellie W. This should be one of the great races of 1895, and it would not be a surprise if the horse that wins beat 2:10. In the three-year-old trot, 2 entered sopie of the great three-year-olds of the year. The 2:13 class contains the the names of Chehalis, from the north, and Waldo Jr., a representative of the south. There alsoin this race other horses that have demonstrated their capac- ity to go fast: Fred Mason 2:10, Dudley 2:093{, Ketchum 314, Belle and Hanford Medium, the last two being winners and tent performers through the circuit s year. There has also been introduced at this meeting, to take place on Tuesday, a gen- tleman’s road race, in which considerable interest has been manifested as the horses are owned in and about Los Angeles and will be driven by their owners.

Néalon and Lenlhan Defeat Amateur Champion Donnelly and Bonnet. The handbell courts were crowded yes- terday and several exciting games were witnessed. At the San Francisco court a closely contested match was played be- tween J. Harlow, the coast champion, and W. Williams, the Bostonian, and J. Law- less and George Hutchinson, the two former winning thefifth and final game by three aces. At the Occidental court a match that awas pronounced by experts the finest ex- hibition of handball ever seen in an alley on this coast was played between J. C. Nealon, the veteran, and R. Lenihan and P. T. Donnelly, the amateur champion, and T. F. Bonnet. It aroused the greatest excitement, not alone from the britliancy of the play, but from its closeness, the final game being decided in favor of Nealon and Leniban by two aces. On Wednesday night Coast Champion Harlow and M." J. Kilgallon will pla Amateur Champion Donnelly and Ry Lenihan, and Ed Maloney and C. J. Mc- gly'nn will play John Purcell and Al Col- ns. The attraction at the Union court was a match between J. J. Feeney and Terry McManus and R. Lenihan and Al Pen- noyer. Each .side won two games, and it was decided to play the final rub next Sun- day. B — Sunday Fires.

SCANDAL IN TURF CIRCLES. IN-AND-OUT RUNNING OF THE SanTa ANITA HORSES WILLBE INVESTIGATED. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 20.—The Tr- bune will print to-morrow the following: E Baldwin, a unique and picturesque figure on the American turf, has been called upon by the foremost body on the American turf to explain the notorious in and out running of some of the horses in his stable. E.J. Baldwin, who is known all over the civilized world as “Lucky” Baldwin, has been a prominent figure on the turf for many years. Baldwin first gained prominence on the turf through the purchase of Norfolk, a son of Lexing- ton. He paid §$15,001 for Norfolk, the extra dollar being added to win a wager that a | son of Lexington would sell for more than the (at that time) fabulous price (§15,000) paid for Lexington himself. From the beginning Baldwin always raced a formidable stable. Many of the best horses that have raced in recent years were owned by the Californian. Through- out his career “‘Lucky”” Baldwin has been careless of public opinion. Criticisms by the press or the comment of race-goers never had appeared to affect him., Some of his horses have raced constantly. Em- peror of Norfolk was a champion and ex- celled his opponents so much that he was invincible until his owner raced him off his legs. Volante, Los Angeles, Silver Cloud, Gano, Rey el Santa Anita, Rey el Carreres, Arapahoe and others were not true running animals, consequently “Lucky” Baldwin and his methods have been the subject of censure for several years. The Santa Anita stable has had many Some managers and numerous trainers. of the latter have been notoriously cious for several years, At the Memphis spring meeting there was a serious turf scandal in which the Santa Anita stable was concerned. One of the jockeys for the stable made an affidavit that he was in- structed to win, although the blacksmith | for the stable swore that the jockey said to | him that he was instructed differently. At the Latonia meeting the stable was | cut into two divisions. Samuel Hildreth | was engaged to train the Eastern division and W. G. Brien had charge of the West- ern division. When it was decided to unite both divisions Brien journeyed to Gravesend to take charge. | He was greatly chagrined, however, by | being ordered to get from under the shed | without delay and afterward being denied | admission to the track. This caused a commotion for a time, but resulted in Samuel Hildreth being retained as chief | trainer. The horses Rey el Santa Anita and Arapahoe have caused so much comment by their startling chanees of form that the stewards of the Westchester Racing Asso- ciation called a halt on Saturday and will refuse the entries of the Santa Anita stable until the stewards of the Jockey Club de- cide upon the merits of the case. Baldwin is furious and threatens dire vengeance on anybody who dares to say that he ever profited a penny by taking advantage of any fraudulent transaction on tbe turf. In the uptown hotels and cafes the Bald- win scandal is much talked about. Many ask, “Why don’t they call down Mr. So- and-So or Mr. Somebodyelse too?” Baldwin will be given every opportunity to vindicate himself. It is a long step toward reform to strike at the evilof in- and-out running, even if the vietim is E. J. Baldwin. J. O. Donner has resigned as | steward of the Jockey Club, consequently | it is not likely that the Baldwin case will | be heard until his successor is elected. | _W. B. Sink, manager for ‘Lucky” | Baldwin, was very indignant over the treatment which the Santa Anuita stable had received at the hands of the West- | chester Racing Association. When seen to-night at the Coleman House he said : “Mr. Baldwin is one of the most honor- ble horsemen on the turf and his jockeys are always instructed to win at every race in which he has an entry. He has done more for racing than any other man and his horses are a benefit to the turf. We not only ask for but demand the fuliest investigation of any race in which any of our horses started and the result of which may have seemed the least bit queer. We will do all in our power to help along such an investigation and will stand all its expense.”’ AT SHELL MOUND. | |a Several Very Good Scores Made In a Rather Poor Light. The threatening aspect of the weather kept many of the military marksmen away from the Shell Mound shooting range yesterday. The light was varying all day, some- times showing the targets distinctly and at other times so poorly that the black disks appeared almost gray. This ac- counted for the decidedly mixed shooting that was done. The monthly medal shoot of Company A of the Fifth Infantry Regiment brought out a large number of the members. The scores were: George Brown 29, J. Taggart 30, C. B. Puc- kett 39, 8. A. Puckett 39, J. Stewart 30, Cap- tain Poulter 41, C. Taggart 40, Cunningham 89, F. Peterson 38, F. Poulter 44, H.

The monthly medal shoot of the Knights of the Red Branch Rifles resulted in a number of good scores being made, as follows: Lieutenant M. Casey 43, Lieutenant M. Man- nix 32, Sergeant J. Bmith 43, Sergeant D. Rus- §ell 53 Corporal H. Molneruy 3§, Corporal J. Fay 30, D. McNamara 27, D. Killen 32, J, Tracy 39, J. Rogerson 29, John J. Fay 35, M. T: Harman 30, Corporal J.

It was Philo Jacoby’s day to shine at Schuetzen Park yesterday. The California Ciub held 1ts monthly bullseye shooting and the veteran marksman, who pioneered th_e development of the target-hitting science in the West, won the diamond medal and all of the laudable distinction which attaches to this prize. Jacoby has devoted most of his rime in late years to the supervision of matches rather than to an active participation in the shooting, and his performance yesterday is notable as indicating that he has lost none of the old-time prowess which made him famous throughout the country. His shot which gave him the medal was only six-hundredths of an inch from the dead center of the black bullseye. This is in the class of rattling scores and Jacoby will be rated a hero for some time. The scores registereda by the club mem- bers were as follows: Jacoby 60, Burmeister 1604, Rahwyler 1220, Brunotte 514, M. Reuvold 1555, A. Gehret 860, Attinger 1127, Langer 1323, Sagehorn 851, Utschig Sr. 1286, Utschig Jr. 1089, Kuhnle 662, Thierbach 1265, Schuster 838, Browning 595, Hanrisman 1670, Straub 1235, Horstman 1621, Klein 1807, Faktor 1053, Finking 527, Bertelsen 391, L.

Kuhls 1871, A. Reubold 1733. The ladies of the California Schuetzen Club held a monthly match with these re- sults in the classes: Champion class, Mrs. Utschig 112; first class, Finking 109; second class, Miss A. Langer 108. The San FKrancisco Turner Schuetzen Verein men shot for prizes in this order: Champion class, P. Brunotte 418; first class, not won', second élass, C. Sagehorn 3605 thir class, G. Sablatt 817; best shot, J. Utschig Sr. 24; best last shot, P. Brunotte 25. The monthly bullseye shooting of the Grutli Bchuetzen Verein resulted as fol- lows: First class, E. Kuntz; second class, John Frei; third class, F. Baumgartnes; fourth class, 0. von Wyl; fifth class, 1. Bachman; sixth class, W. Diethelm. The first picnic of the season, which was arranged by Captain Fred Schuemann, drew a large crowd of merrymakers to the grounds. In the festival shooting John Utschig won the first prize. THEY ARE_ ORDERED OFF | TRESPASSERS ON THE SUISUN PRE- SERVES COMMANDED TO MovE Ox. A YounG MaN FroMm BENICIA HaD His HeaDp SxHoT IN PIECES WHILE HUNTING. Constables from Suisun were located at the Teal Shooting Club’s headquarters bright and early yesterday morning, where | they waited for the arrival of hunters who | intended shooting upon the wire-fenced grounds of the Cordelia Teal Shooting | Club. As soon as the first report of a gun spread oyer the marsb the constables, under the guidance of a keeper, started immediately in the direction from which the sound | came, and whenever a poacher, so called, was detected squatting on the margin of a Eond or tramping through the mud fields e was hailed and presented with a type- written order to vacate the premises. No arrests were made. These who re- ceived the scrip looked at it first in dis- gust, and then either tore it into bits or flung it to the breeze. One sample. how- ever, was pocketed, and it read as follows: TRESPASS NOTICE. “HAMBERLAIN TRACT, OUNTY, Cal., Oct. 20, 1895, notified that you are unlaw- fully upon this Jand, which said land is known as the Chamberlain tract, in Solano County, State of California, near Suisun. It is inclosed and leased by me from the owners thereof. You ere notified to immediately remove from this property, upon which you are trespassing, and if you fail to do_so you will be prosecuted to the extent of the law. Gro. H. KINLocH, Constable. Cnas. W. KELLOGG, Lessee. One of the keepers of the Teal preserve said that the Cordelia Club leased for four years 4000 acres of the Chamberlain tract in July of 1893. and in the following year the club fenced 3000 acres and had notices posted in accordance with the law. It paid | $1200 a year for the privilege of shooting over this large extenyof marsh, and it was a shame that outsiders did not respect the rights of the members, The long pending injunction suit against the Mallard Club will be tried next Thurs- day in the Superior Court of Fairfield be- fore Judge Buckles. The Cordelias will try to explain the great annoyance they have been subjected to by the Mallard Club, whose members, it is claimed, haye caused the wild ducks to vacate the well-fed ponds of the preserves by their wild and reckless shooting during day and night; thatunless trespassers must be made to keep aloof from the grounds, the club will suffer much pain and a great financial loss. - The members of the Mallard Club laugh at the idea of a club of comparatively few sportsmen being in the least bit injured by visitations from outsiders. They will cite as an_ instance of great slaughter the several bags of game that were shipped from Teal Station and vicinity last Tues- day evening, the result of half a day’s shooting by less than one dozen club mem- bers. The Mallards contend that the Cor- delia Club, which has subleased portions of its vast shooting grounds to the Teal Club, has a lease only of the shooting privileges of the marsh which is partly surrounded by a‘wire fence, and asa con- sequence the Cordelias have no right or title to prevent outsiders from trespassing on the -iude flats. The sportsmen of Solano County, and especially the residents of Suisun and vicinity, are very bitter against the pre- serve club members, and as a matter of fact the trial of next Thursday is being looked forward to with more than or- dinary interest. _The Cordelia Club will have as its cham- ions Attorneys Harvey and Coghlan of olano County and Powers and Young of San Francisco. will be defended by Judge The Mallards Gregory of Suisun and L. G. Harrier of Vallejo. Sheriff Rush of Solano County isreported to have said that he had no power toarrest any man for smashing a blockade of a slough, but that the Teal Club could have arrests made on’ the ground of malicious mischief if they so pleased. A very sad accident happened to a youpg man named Alexander Carr yesterday, while hunting near Goodyears station. ‘While parting the tule with his gun so as to make atrail the weapon was discharged, blowing one side of his head off. The young man was conveyed by his compan- lous to Benicia, where his relatives reside. He was in the oompanf of his brother, L. Joy, Shade and Pringle of Benicia when the sad occurrence happened. e Judge Burke in Town. Judge Joseph J. Burke, the new presiding judge who will officiate at the Bay District track, arrived last evening from New York. THE SPORTS OF SUNDAY SAN FRANCISCOS' SECOND VICTORY IN THE CENTRAL PARK BASEBALL. TIED IN THE NINTH INNING. LouMAN’s HIT WITH THE BASES FULL—SHOOTING, BICYOLING AND HANDBALL. The way that high fouls and long- distance hits flew over the fence at Central Park yesterday in every direction would have caused timid residents of the locality to move out or to get down 1n the cyclone cellar. But the houses that hem in the old baseball grounds are occupied by a courageous class, and instead of seek- ing safety the men and women got up on the roofs and watched the game, And it was a game worth watching. The crowd was about as big as that of Saturday, though the rain that fell early in the afternoon had the effect of keeping everybody but the veterans away, and en- thosiasm ran 'as high as the new wire fence, the City Hall tower that loomed overhead, or the lurid, up-turned collar of “Tip” O'Neill’s blazer. It was a day of long hits, and San Fran- cisco always.did like heavy batting. There would have been a nice little record of home runs and three-base hits, but the circumscribed area of the outfield made it necessary to hold the over-the-fence work down to the two-bagger limit. From the beginning of the }'omt assault on the two pitchers until the last shriek from the fog- horn voice of Coach Mertes died away over the Potrero hills it was a bright, pretty game. Los Angeles was four runs shy in the ninth inning, but with three men on the bases when Pete Lohman went to the bat. Peter had just the same opportunity on Saturday, but struck out, and yesterday he seemed determined fo make a similar rec- ord. He stood idly at the plate, just try- ing to foreet himself, when Mr. McDonald called a strike at the first ball pitchea. Then Peter revived like a uniformed Pat Malone. He jumped in four different directions, made a diagram 1n the air with the handle of his bat and proceeded to abuse the umpire. He was mad and he didn’t care if people were present. The ball was pitched again and with a vicious swing Peter caught it about two feet to the windward of the plate and sent it joyously cavorting to the most remote corner of the fence. He brought three men home and would bave made third himse!f but for the fact that he stoppea to tell the sympathetic young Hulen some more about his opinion of umpires in general. One run had been previously brought in, tieing the score, but the wrathful Lohman died at third. The San Franciscos batted heavily in the tenth inning, making the score 13, and though Los Angeles then made a run and put three men on the bases the lead could not be overcome. The same teams will play at Central Park on Wednesday afternoon. Jack Fan- uing will pitch for San Francisco and either Barnes or Phil Knell for Los An- geles. The score of yesterday’s game is: SCOS.

THLS OF THE ST INDICATIONS THAT ALL IS NOT HARMONIOUS AND SERENE AMONG THEM. A MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEE TELLS OF MR. DAGGETT'S DuLL Ax. There is not among the members of the Junta that harmony that would be ex- pected among such a body of men whose sole aim is to give the City an opportunity to choose for its office-holders a set of can- didates above reproach. Mr. Maguire is with the Junta; so is Mr. Daggett; so is Mr. Rainey; so is Max Pop- per. The men who have had the chosing of the members of the committee of fifty have not given each and all of these what they asked. Maguire will be satisfied if Mr. Daggett does not get much influence. Mr. Popper will be statisfied with what he gets, provided Mr. Daggett does not have too much say. Mr. Dnfigen-well Mr, Daggett's Senatoriai ax is very dufl, and he wants a great deal of wear out of the Junta’s grindstone; more than they can allow him. So it looks as if one of the dearest wishes of Mr. Maguire and Mr, Popper will be realized. ne who is prominent in the committee of fifty and one of the original twenty-five said last night: "Rnlne&we have no use for. It is no good trying to whitewash him and claim that he and’ Buckley are at outs. Of course, so far, we have not antagonized him openly for policy’s sake. The committee is getting a little tired of Mr. Daggett, too. Here he comes into a San Francisco local fight from Biskiyou with his Senatorial aspirations. hat does he care about our fl:tung up a good local ticket as far as hisinterest in this City goes? No, he wants to grind his old Senatorial ax, and that is so dull by this t%,:“ that it would use up our whole grind- stone. “Of course he has got in a man here a there and his Mr. Armeshas bee: doi:: some cunning work, but we are on to them now, and T. Armes brings up only To-day he will assume the duties of his new mosition at the racetrack. It smiles when he offers his mild insi suggestions. You see the f.mnl:{aslxeni‘:l t‘!‘:‘:i Daggett, besides asking too mueh, ex- resses altogether more confidence in Mr. gniney than we think Mr. Rainey de- serves. It don’tlook well. We are work- 1ng in the interest of the local Democracy with & view to putting upa good ticket and not to help out anybody’s aspirations nor rehabilitate any discarded bosses. — e CRICKET ACROSS THE BAY. The Lake County Eleven Defeated by the Pacifics at Ala- meda. The first match of the Lake County cricket eleven against local clups came off vesterday. It was with the Pacific Club at Alameda, and resulted in a victory for the home team by 7 wickets. The Pacifics won the tossand putthe visitors in. Kelson and Hammond made a strong defense, but the othersof their team were evidently the worse for their journey on the previous day and fell com- aratively easy victims to the bowling of Enidy and Charley Hill. They reached a total of 52. 5 The first few wickets of the Pacifics fell for so small a total that the northerners were led to hope for the best, but Harbour and Casidy extinguished their hopes by steady scoring, ans the total of the visitors was overtopped by thirty runs. B Then the rain came down and it was feared that the match would terminate, but at the first indication of clearing up a fresh start was made and the Lake County men went to bat. Keeling made 31 with careful play, but was poorly supported, and the side was finally dismissed for 64. The few runs that remained for the Pacifics to tieand win were promptly compiled,thanks chiefly to the efforts of Myers. The chief feature of the game was the superb bowl- ng of Harbour of the Pacifics, who got 4 wicketsf or no runs, making the hat trick besides. The Lake County men were fentertained at luncheon by their opponents, and pleas- ant Bé)eeches were 1nterchanged. General ‘Warfield gave a warm address of welcome on behalf of the home team.
