Mary L, who with her stable mate the Virginia Dare gelding ruled first choices in the bet- b sh able winner. Of the six favorites sent out three were returned winners. 3 Foul riding had much to do with the defeat of Pecksniff, the 8 to 5 choice for the opening short six-furlong run. ¥od Sloan, on Belle of Stonewall, was in from the jump with Pecksniff, running second un- der wraps. Bergen, on the latter, made his ride 1n the stretch, and while attempt- ing to get to the front was twice fouled by Sloan’smount. Belle of Stonewall tinally was ridden out by a length. Bergen justly claimed a foul, but it was not allowed. Sam Leake was made a 3 to 5 favorite for the succeeding event at five and a half fur- 10ngs and won by a length from Veragua, a 60 to 1 chance, with little to spare. The big colt Don Pio Pico, against which some of the books laid 200 to 1, finished In the show. Barney Schreiber’s black horse, Hidago, was a pronounced favorite for the mileand a furlong selling affair; 4 to 5 being the general closing price’ against him. He took the lead from Ike L after about half of the distance had been covered, and won easily. a couple of lengths in front of Little Cripple. Little Bob was a close third.

Three of these are said to be association books. It is rumored that Bert Hart, the well- known jockey-trainer, will shortly make his debut as a steeplechase rider. The King, who carried the Elkton stable’s colors in the first race, broke down so badly that he was unable to hobble off the track, and a bullet ended his misery. Eolo and Lew Weir, the stallions pur- chased in Kentucky by A. B. Spreckels, arrived in this City yesterday morning, and are now quartered in Mr. Spreckels’ private stable on Fell street, near the park. GONE TO KENTUCKY. H. E. Huntington Said to Be on His Way to That State as a Lobbyist. H. E. Huntington, vice-president of the Southern Pacific Company, left hurriedly for the East a few days ago. It was given out at the time that his destination was New York, where he would attend a fam- ily marriage. From a trustworthy source in the rail- road offices it was learncd yesterday that Mr. Huntington had gone to Kentucky on business of the utmost importance to the railway corporation. ‘‘H. E. has been ordered to the capital of Kentucky,” said the Southern Pacific official. *‘His orders, of course, came from C. P., who has more than he can attend to at Washington just now. Young Mr. Huntington was manager of a Kentucky road and is on good terms with many prominent men in that State. “I believe that he will appear among the members of the Kentucky Legislature in a day or two. It is a matter of the most urgent necessity that action be taken in that quarter without any delay, or else the company may not be able to wrestle with the bill 'recently introduced to revoke the Southern Pacific charter. “I am told also that Mr. Stubbs is on an important mission in connection with the funding bill, but that is all T can say. Those matters have been kept exceedingly quiet in the building, and that fact in it- self has given rise to considerable talk atong the heads of departments as well as among the clerks.” FLED T0 SHN FRANCISCD Emil H. Popel, an Absconding St. Louis Cashier, Hunted by Detectives. The winner was 10 He Is Charged With Embezzling $8000 From the New York Life In- surance Company. Half a dozen detectives are hunting throughout San Francisco for a notorious embezzler from St. Louis, who 1s known to be in this City. Every poolroom in town is sedulously watched, and.the detec- tives are also keeping an eye on the race- track at Ingleside and the Bay District and at downtown resorts where gambling of any kind is conducted. The fugitive so eagerly sought is Emil H. Popel of St. Louis. Popel, it appears, Emil H. Popel. was inclined to extravagant living, and had a mania for horseracing and poolroom excitement. Every dollar he earned was invested in pools or put up on horses in the St. Louis betting-ring, with the usnal result—Popel had to get money elsewhere. In this extremity he was quite favorably situated, having been assistant cashier of the New York Life Insurance Company at St. Louis. He handled large sums of the company’s money daily, and as charged in a complaint against him, appropriated a liberal share to his own use whenever the opportunity presented itself. The stolen money passed out of Popel’s fingers like water through a sieve and into the pockets of bookmakers and pool-sellers in the Western city. At last, when the time approached for balancing the cashbooks with the ledgers, Popel saw he would be detected. So he disappeared from the office early last December and left St. Louis. On an examination of Popel's books it was found that he had embezzled $8000 in a short time. The eml ezzler was under heavy bonds to the American Surety Company of New York, so that the insurance corporation’s loss was made good. The surety company, however, deter- mined to find Popel and bring him to jus- tice. It caused him to be charged with embezzlement and sent circulars contain- ing his photograph and description broad- cast throughout the country. A few days ago information was taken to the surety company that Popel was seen in San Francisco. Immediately a search was begun, but so far without re- sult, as Popel eluded pursuit. It was said that he had visited the Ingleside track. This information bore out the suggestion in the circular that *‘he is a fiend on horse- racing, and will probably follow the races.” The detectives are still looking for Popel, and expect to find him in seme poolroom, unless he has already left the City. The description of Popel as given in the surety company’s circular is as follows: German. Age 24 (looks older), height 5 feet 4 or 5 inches, weight about 130 pounds, thin light hair, small bald spot on crown, very high forehead, complexion fair, pink cheeks, bluish ray eyes, slight mustache, brown. Talks in ow tone, slow, rather an English drawl, nasai; very conceited in manner. Wore when'he left St. Louis, about December 11, 1895, dark suit, single-breasted sack coat; dark brown chin’ chilla beaver overcoat. Lest Popel might escape every train and everg steamer leaving the City is watched by the surety company’s detectives. —————————— Fatherle: d Motherless.

The pious Catholics of Jerusalem make the stations of the cross in that gar- den every Sunday afternoon. The tombs of Jerusalem, whicn the lecturer said were the most remarkable monuments of Pales- tine, were beautifully illustrated, and each view was accompanied by an interesting description and narrative. The Golden Gate—a remnant of a tem- le—was illustrated. ‘“The Mohammedans eep 1t built up,” observed the lecturer, | “having a superstition that its opening will herald the downiall of their power. Let us hope the day is not far distant when these gates will be open once again.” A striking picture was the wall of wail- ing, where Jews congregate Friday after- noons and bewail the departed glories of their race, the temple that is destroyed; and this the pilgrim lecturer said was the most touching sight in the Holy Land. Thegruceful Mosque of Omai that is su pose of Solomon interested the audience. From Jerusalem the tour was followed to Bethlehem, Hebron, Jericho, the River Jordan, the Dead Sea, Shiloh, where the Ark rested for many years until captured and carried off by the Philistines, to Nablous, the Mohammedan town. The memorable wells, tombs and ruins of early churches that lie strewn along the wayside were pictured and briefly men- tioned. Excellent views of Nazareth were shown, with the well where the Virgin went daily lor water for her home, the convent and church where the Grotto of the Annunciation exists. ALTENHEIM DIRECTORS.

The preliminary examination of Mamie Barnum on the charge of grand larceny was concluded before Judge Campbell Wednesday afternoon, The defendant and her friend, Kittie Nelson, flatly contradicted the war vet- eran, Ebenezer F.

Jasper Madison, the colored jockey, had his preliminary examination on the charge of assault to murder before Judge Campbell and was held_to answer before the Superior Court in $10,000 boads. In explanation of the high bail the Judge said he had been informed that the condition of Hugh Murphy, the bartender, who was cut in the neck by Madison, was re- garded by the surgeons at the French Hospital especially erected for 500 guests.
