HE WAS A VERY SICK MAN. Captain Brewer Spoke Very Highly of the Treatment Accorded His Men. the oarsman, got back Henry Petersor from - Austin, Tex., yesterday. He was looki d did not seem to be a bit | cast'down er the fact that he failed to brir ck any of the prizes with him. He was not looking as hale and hearty as when he -left San Francisco, but he ex- plained that by the fact that he had two spells of sickness while in the Lone Star State. He was not an hour in the City before be resumed his usual mode of life, and any one who wanted a boatman at Folsom- street whari yesterday afternoon found ce with stomach troubles stin,” said Peterson yes- first bout I got over all time in my White contests.

A banquet was given the Britishers at Driscoll Hotel in Austin and I was the rican present. When the win- ing teams were toasted Captain Brewer, i the men, who had come gland, got up and said: ‘[t ar and trembling that we The Defender-Valkyrie f ,and I (ust admit that on our side of the water public sentiment was all with the British boat. We were told time and again that we would not get fair play and that it | would be an utter impossibility for us to | win a race. “ ‘Furthermore, we were reminded that we were going to Texas, the home of the | the cowboys, and the State in which men | would sooner engage in a pistol fight than go to dinner; thatif we opened our mouths in protest over anything that took place during the regatta we were liable to get our tongues shot out [laughter] and other such stuif. “‘Gentlemen, speaking for the men who came over with me and for myself, I will state that I never met a fairer or more straightforward lot of sportsmen than have here in Texas. Everything in con- nection with this regatta has been above suspicion, and whenever you hold another you can count upon a big representation of English oarsmen.’ “Brewer was cheered to the echo,” con- cluded Peterson, “and his manly state- ment did much toward removing the sore- ness that was engendered over the yacht race.” Peterson has been a{\\;\oinwd com- mander’s coxswain of the Naval Battalion and next Weduesday night the boys are oing to give him a welcome home. ~They have great faith in the California cham- ion and are willing to back him against Btansbury to-morrow. ALONG THE WATER FRONT Sad Ending of a Man Who Was Once a Wealthy Citizen of Oregon. Remarkably Quick Time Made by the German Ship Christine to This Port. There was a tragedy on Howard-street wharf vesterday morning. An Austrian, who at one time was quite wealthy, jumped overboard and lefta note in his overcoat pocker saying, “Died from hunger.” He never came to the surface again, and the police were of the opinion that his body was weighted. His overcoat, coat, hat and shoes were found on the wharf by Officer Charles Callahan and taken to the Harbor Police station. The name of the deceased was J. Beo- vich, who once owned considerable prop- erty in Oregon. His brother isa Catholic priest in Austria and another relative is a wealthy merchant in Vienna. Beovich told his friend, S. Zarro, at 11 East street, that he was goingto commit suicide, but the latter only laughed at him. Zarro says that the man must have been crazy, as he need never have wanted for a meal. His numerous friends would only have been too glad to have helped him. A wagon-load of stuff for the schooner Viking was ordered back to the warelouse yesterday by the wharfinger at Mission- street wharf. It wascomposed mostly of dynamite, and Captain Luttrell was in- formed that he would have to wait until he got his vessel into the bay before he could ship the dangerous cargo. The German ship Christine which made the smart run of forty-eight days from Newcastle, N. S. W., to San Francisco, made an equally smart run from other ports. From Hull to Cape Town the trip was made in_sixty-one days, and from Cape Town to Newcastle was only thirty- seven days. This Captain Warneke con- siders slow time as the American bark Fresno made it in thirty days. Allinall the actual sailing time of the Christine - after discharging and loading at two ports was only 146 days, and a great many of . the coal fleet have been lonzer than that in getting from Swansea to San Francisco. = G. W. McNear Jr. took quite a party of _his friends up to Port Costa on the Spreckels tug Active last night. The voung men examined the grain sheds and visited a number of the British ships now loading up there. SHARON ESTATE SETTLED. The Trust Expires by Limitation—Mr. Newlands Remains in Charge. The heirs of the William Sharon estate came into possession of their shares yester- day by the expiration of the trust by limita- tion. His will created a ten-years’ trust, at the expiration of which the heirs were to divide the estate as follows: One-third to Lady Hesketh (nce Sharon), one-third . to Frederick W.

San Francisco Master Plumbers Sur- round the Banqueting Board. The Master Plumbers’ hc ation of San Francisco gave its annual banguet last ! evening in one of the banqueting rooms of | Golden Gate Commandery Hall. The hall was brave with decorations, | cheerful with music, and the banqueting | board laden with plants and flowers, as well as the more substantial elements of a feast. There were 200 covers, and the mas- ters of the pipe and line waxed jovial as | the hours waned, and toward midnight there was a high tide of merriment. X | "R.

She Is Suffering From Morphine Poi- soning, but When or How Taken She Does Not Know. Jennie Jones, whose fame as 'Jennie | Lind, the circus rider, was known through- out this continent and also in Europe, is a patient in the Receiving Hospital, suffer- ing from morphine poisoning. She had been in Stockton for the past two months, in the hospital there. She perance Union, and her case interested Jack Fales, a member of the Salvation Army. He left Stockton for this City a | few days ago, but before leaving he offered | hera home for some time, with his aunt here, and told her to come on the boat arriving yesterday morning, and he would be ut the wharf to meet her. She left Stockton on Friday night, arriv- ing yesteraay morning, but Fales was not there to meet her. She had only 15 cents in her pocket, and she walked to a restau- rant at 137 Fourth street and spent 10 cents for a meal. She has been a sufferer from spasms and cramps for a long time, and ater leaving the restaurant she swallowed a large dose of a patent-medicine mixture to ease her vain. She was picked up at Eighth and Harrison streets in an uncon- scious condition and taken to the hospital. After recovering consciousness she said and took three large doses of the mixture. She bad been addicted to the use of mor- phine, but broke away from it two months ago. She could not understand why she should ba suffering from morphine poison- ing, because there was no portion of that drug in the patent medicine. She had no desire to commit suicide. “] was born in Lennox, Dak., she said, “and Ijoined a circus when I was 9 years old. traveled with Barnum & Bailey throughout the States and also in Europe. I was a bareback rider and singer. I was married when I was 13 years of age, my husband being also & circus performer. He died in Illinois eight months ago, and I retired from the ring. I am only 23 years of age, but I have suffered greatly from spasms and cramps, which prevents me from doinfi anything. *Ii I bad only a few months’ rest I think I would be all right. My little girl, who is now five years old, is in a charity school in Iowa. “If Jack Fales had not told me that I could find a home with his aunt I would not have come here. 1 haye no friends here, and am penniless.” About four months ago Jennie was taken to the Receiving Hospital here suffering from strychnine poisoning. At that time it was stated that the poison was in some candy she had been eating. ENIGHTS' REVEL. Merriment Ran High at Golden Gate Commandery Hall Last Night. The chrysanthemum jinks of Golden Gate Commandery No. 16, Knights Tem- plar, was as gay and eflorescent as its name would indicate. The commandery ban- queting hall was adorned with masses of the big, feathery blooms, and the prevail- ing color of the evening was repeated in the yellow menu cards. One hundred of the knights, good and true, surrounded the board, and revelry ran high. L. V\; Sumner was the toast master, and Joseoh C. Campbell responded in felicitous style to “The Jinks Committee.” Robert Ash gave a humorous address, Ed H. Townsend gave a song, George E..Crump a banjo solo, and Dr. W. H. Sieberst, Samuel Wall, with his poem, “Zerubabel No. 4, George T: Knox, Charles Downey and Joseph Cathcart contributed to the even- ing’s enjoyment. De Wolf Hopper and members of his company were also on the programme. The committee of arrange- ment consisted of William Edwards, Joseph C. Campbell, William E. Lutz, Robert Ash and J. B. Aitken. Golden Gate Commandery No. 16, Knights Templar, of this city, was insti- tated on April 21, 1881, and on May 21, 1883, the captain-general of the com. mandery, F. W. Sumner, organized the drill corps. This organization has been Ln existence from that date to the present ay. The commandant, F. W. Sumner, being grand commander durin:z the present year declined re-election, and Colonel William Edwards was elected in his place.

THE RING BADLY SCORCHED. fHonest Little Cripple Placed the Mile and a Sixteenth Handicap to His Credit. | George Wheelock’s slate was up in the bet- ting ring yesterday. He took the place of Howell & Co., who cut-in on Friday. Riley Grannan backed Sir Richard, with Willie Martin up, for a good thing. Ed Purser, however, had his coin down on Goodwin II. - | Ed Sachs bid up Beatrice, the winner of the | opening race, $200 over her entered selling price, her owner retaining her. She was in to | be sold for $200. | Burns & Waterhouse won $6000 over the win of Goodwin IL It is said Trainer McCor- | mick wanted to scratch the horse’s eatry in the | | forenoon, but was persuaded to let him start, as his withdrawal would necessitate declaring | | the race off. | The Burns & Waterhouse stable sprung a bonbon on the public yesterday that | popped with startling results. In the | fourth race on the card, a five and a half furlong selling affair, there were four entries, and among them was the Buras & | | Waterhouse entry Goodwin II. Previous | to yesterday he started on three different | occasions, running like a high-class ‘“‘dog,” although on one occasion it is claimed he was badly interfered with. At any rate he strolled back in the betting until 20 to 1 | was reached, and then the bookmuakers felt a nibble that soon developed into a| hungry bite. ‘When the smoke cleared away 8 to 1 was | | the prevailing price. Those not in on the | know backed Sir Richard, the 9 to 10| favorite, and Hymn, the second choice. | Ferguson dropped the flag to a_straggling start, Goodwin II off in front with Morven at his side. He led all the way and won handily two leneths before Sir Richard in 1:0614, coast record time. On turning the | bend for home Hymn jumped on the | borse in front of him and "stumbled to his | knees, throwing Shaw heavily, but he | luckily escaped with nothing more seri- | ous than a bruised foot. The weather was piping hot and a large | |crowd was in attendance. The betting | | ring was a sweltering mass of humanity | | and the bookies did a land-office business. | Favorites succeeded in capturing four ou of six of the events on the card. | here was nothing fast enough in the | opening race, a five-furlong dash, to make | the 7 to 10 favorite Beatrice, for she led all the way and won under restraint, with Rhaetia in the place, a length in front of imp. Trentola. Irma, from the same stable as the win- ner of the opening race, was a bot even- | money favorite for the next event, also a sprint at five furlongs. After leading un- til within fifty yards of the wire she was gassed by Bob Tucker, a 5 to 1 chance, and eaten out a head. It was a race thrown away through a jockey’s carelessness. The two-year-olds had it all their own | way in the next run, a six-furlong spin | with light welter-weights up. Marionette ! was a heavily played 7 to5chance, and seuing away first, led all the way and won | driving halt a length ahead of Nic Nac, | the second choice. | Little Cripple, who won on Friday, again | proved a winner in the mile and a six- | teenth handicap. His Eond run the day previous made him a 4 to 5 favorite, al- | though carrying top weight, and he fully | justified the confidence reposed in him. | Chorn kept him back in third or fourth | position until the stretch was reached, when he gave him his head and he fairly walked in, passing the judges under a pull | half a length in front of Wawona, in track record time, 1:47. The Elkton stable’s good horse, J O C, | added another to his list of victories in the | steeplechase. Going to the postan8to5 favorite he went o the front after making the third jump and won handily from Mestor. Auteuil, the second@ choice, ran poorly, finishing fourth. Forty-ninth day.

After Six Innings, Sprinkled With Errors, the Score Stood Six to Three. The home team, with the aid of Harper in the box, took a game from the Oakland- ers at Central Park yesterday afternoon. Johnson’s pitching was wild and un- steady, and the San Franciscos touched him up for a little total of eleven safe hits, four of which were two-baggers. it was an ideal baseball afternoon, but ' the 1st prox.

Erni Abbots was arrested by Secret Service Agent N. R. Harris Jr., yesterday afternoon, for having counterfelt money in his possession. It is presumed that George Green, who was ar- rested on the 15th inst.,in the People's Palace, or passing spurious coin, relied upon Abbots for his supply. | the first of a high one fielded o third from | seemed to reach a climax on costly errors. | ahead of their ielded hits. only about 600 people seemed to think so | seriously enough to pay admission to what turned out to be a pretty slow exhibition. | Fortunately it was stopped at the end of | the sixth inning by aporoaching dusk. In the third Sweeney made a beautiful | pick-up catch at third base just in time to | make Fraser’s slide for the baga little sen- | sational. In the next inning Van Haltren came in from the southeast like a runaway team and scooped in Frank’s long fly. Sweeney made three grave errors during the game, and his pretty one-hand stop in deep center was forgotten in his later fumbles. It was in the fifth thav the Ouklands In that innihg the home team got three men across tu.e plate and this settled what seemed a foregone conclusion after the first inning. | San Francisco was at bat first and Lally started with a single to right and came home on Frank's two-bagger wa, down into the southeast corner. Fran took third on Werrick’s single, but a mo- ment later was caught off the bag. Straus Then Sweeney landed it over the right fence for two bags and Werrick went home. Power trotted down to first after four of Johnson s uncertainties and Fraser retired the side with a fly into Treadway’s | spacious palms. O’Rourke and Irwin never reached first Burns singled and Pickett sent a ground-scorching single past second, and then it was that the crowd applauded when Sweeney stopped | the throw from center. Treadway waited patiently for four balls to shy clear of the plate and then went westward, but Van | Haltren sent one down to Strausin right and the Oakland team never scored 1n the first. In the third Sweeney scored for San Francisco, after takin% first on a bye, going to second on Mullane’s slow recov- ery from a catch, and taking advantage of Fraser’s single to Van Haltren. With two men out in the fourth, O’Rourke scored on Irwin’s hit to left stolen second. The fifth started with Sweeney at first on Johnson's error. Power followed with four balls from Johnson. Fraser’s single to center was so badly handled that Sweeney came home, Fraser reached third and the batter ot second. Harper’s little infield hit retired him at first and left two men on bases, when Staniey landed a two- bagger into right, scoring both men. Laliy just beat the ball to first, while Stanley reached third. Frank tipped up a little one to the catcher and went out at first. Werrick followed with a foul that Wilson closed on like a rat-trap and San Fran- cisco’s run-getting was over for the game. Oakland managed to get two in the sixth and last, when Johnson scored Mullane with a two-bagger and crossed the plate himself on Sweeney’s failure to handle a fielded ball.

The Star 1s in receipt of a copy of the memorial recently adopted by the Cleve- land Chamber of Commerce praying the two great parties to shorten the National political campaign. It is a convincing document and should produce an effect for the benefit of the commercial interests of the country. There is not an organization of business men in the United States that cannot consistently subscribe to such a plea, and, indeed, the reasons that actu- ate them in their opposition to a long campaign should appeal strongly to the sensibilities of the workingmen who, through their trade societies and unions, could easily exercise a great influence upon the solution of the question put by the gleveland business men. — Washington tar. in the Clay-Street Market. | The Brothers Bajardo and Francesco Langrillo Sue Maurizio Batiano for Slander. “T pesci sono i miei; sono stati presi dal mio carro; hanno rubato il mio sangue.” Thus spoke Maurizio Batiano to Ste- phano Bajardo, Antonio Bajardo and Francesco Langrillo on the 8th inst., and great is the excitement in the Clay-street market over the events which have fol- lowed this announcement. The man who spoke conducts a fish-stand in the market, as do those addressed, and a rivalry exists between them. Each tried to undersell the other, until bad blood was engendered, and now, instead of resorting to blows, the Justice’s Court has been asked to bring peace to the warring factions by declaring the brothers Bajardo and Lan- grillo slandered and entitled to $299 99 damages. X For a time there were torrid" passages in the tish mart. Favorite Italian epithets of contemot and deri~ion wire freely ban- died about, sometimes almost creating a small riot, but these encounters of words, oceasionally punctuated by the swish of a stale fish through the air, were not looked upon as suflicient to warrant a re- course to the scale of justice. | _There came a day, however, when ! Batiano_thought he was shy a box of fish and he immediately jumped to the con- | clusion that his rivals had stolen his wares. Planting himself in front of their | stall with uplifted hand he exclaimed in | a tragic voice that echoed through the | barn-like structure: | “The fish are mine; they were taken from my wagon; you have stolen my blood,” or words to that effect, for the Italian words are hard to translate into | cold English. The plaintiffs in the suit in | which Batiaro is named as defendant | claim that prior to the time they were ac- cused by him their reputations were good | and that they were never even uuepec:ed of the crime of larceny. They believe that the words complained of were intended to | injure them, and that their tarmished characters should be regilded by the dol- lars of the house of Batiano. Barry & Bianchi are attorneys for the plaintiffs. —_—— Fillmore Has an Assistant. General Manager Kruttschnitt of the Southe ern Pacific Company has appointed N. H. Fos- ter assistant to Manager Fillmore of the Pacific system. Mr. Foster has been auditor of motive power and machinery, which position has been abolished nominally to be succeeded by the “chief clerk of motive power.” The change is | of little importance since it is merely part of aTearrangement of minor railway officials.
