THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 1896. THE “BLIND BOSS” SUED FOR LIBEL, A. B. Henderson, Ex-Man- aging Editor of the “Examiner,” Plaintiff, THE BUCKLEY CHARGES. He Said a Certain Managing Editor Took $12,000 on a Job. NO NAMES WERE MENTIONED. Broad Inference Drawn by the Late Editorial Chief, and Neighbors Are at OQuts. A. B. Henderson, the former managing editor of the Examiner, is about to sue Christopher Buckley, the *‘Blind Boss,” for libel. The papers are now being prepared by | the former’s attorney, H. E. Highton, and will be filed in the Superior Court to-mor- row morning. Mr. Henderson bases his suit on certain assertions made by Mr. Buckley reporter on December 1895. The inter- view with Buckley had reference to certain ical and financial transactions of C. E. TLe latter told Buckley that he ed” the managing editor of a ng paper and that he was to receive $12,000 for assisting in running the Metro- | Railway franchise thro ors, this according to politan ctr the Board of Super { language used by the “‘Blind oss” in that interview is given in the fol- lowing extracts: Mayne was introduced o 11890 by Attorney red his ral 1 to take st in adventurer and one in- cheme.

Henderson and Mr. Buckley s. Their little farms at Livermore Mr. Henderson purchased his retreat about five years ago, and on retirement from the Examiner last he sought quiet and seclusion amid and fig trees. t is by inference also that the last para- ph in the interview quoted is supposed to refer to the owner of the same paper. And Mr. Buckley takesoccasion to express righteous indignation at the mere sug- gestion that he could be expected to aid 1 obtain a franchise foran electric-ligi company- Mr. Henderson s no longer a journalist the active sense. He has turned farmer, to quote himself, and finds life al Liver- more altogether peaceful, healthy and bappy. "Ipam an out-and-out rancher,” he said yesterday afternoon, when quesiioned about the suit he is about to bring against the notorious political leader. ‘‘There is not a fortune in it, to be sure, but there are peace, healthand contentment. What more can one wish for on earth t” Mr. Henderson and his attorney were non-committal when pressed for informa- tion relative to the libel suit. “*The complaint will be in shape to-mor row and will be filed Friday morning,” eaid Mr. Hizhton. Mr, Henderson was present, but spoke no' “Yes, it is a suit for libel,” again re- onded Mr. Highton, “but I cannot tell anything more until the papers are prepared and the case in proper shape.” WELLS S THE CHAMPION, The Bay City Wheelmen’s Flyer Wins the Ten-Mile Club Cup Race. sp you Edwards Won the Quarter Mile Event Delmas the Mile Handicap. and The last nigbt's racing -of the indoor amateur bicvcle tournament at the Mechanics’ Pavilion drew the usual large crowd last evening, and before the races were called standing room even wasat a premium. Last night concluded the amateur racing Cyecling Clubs will have charge of the track this evening, and will give a meet which promises to eclipse any of the en- tertainment thus far offered. Desides isl match races between Osen and pbell, professionuls, Griffiths and intan, and Wellsand E wnrds.nmn!ei}rs. {here will be a record trial by Champion egler Jr., 2 one mile invitation race, » which all the cracks will ride, and & mile scratch. This composes a iid programme of racing, and should large crowd, particularly as it is a benefit for the association, and all the local clubs will attend en masse to cheer for their favorites. 4 During the week, however, the manage- o a| b | gret at not having reached here sooner | tance in asfar as the management | had arranged, but the California Associated | ment of the Pavilion tournaments de- cided that as the track will not have to be removed from the building until the end of this week it would hold three days’ professional racing — Friday, Saturday and Sunday _afternoons and even- ings—the races to be competed in by the champion women riders of the world. How Manager Wikidel got these people out here so quickly and with- out any one knowing his intentions seems a mystery, but_it 1s a fact that they are here and stopping at the Palace Hotel. On Monaay evening the three star lady bicyciists of the world arrived. They are Dottie Farnsworth of Minneapolis, Miss Peterson of Chicago and Miss Mack of New York City. They are under the management of A. A. Hanson, the world’s long-distance road champion, whose ar- rival here was noted in yesterday’s CALL. The ladies hold remarkable records for both long and short distance riding. Miss Farnsworth’'s best record is 300 miles, made on a seventeen-lap track, in 15 hours 48 minutes, and she also holds the hour record of twenty-one miles, seven laps, made on a twelve-lap track. The management has secured several local lady riders to compete against these cracks, and the programme as arranged is as follows: They will ride for long-di tance records each afternoon from 3 to o'clock, and in theevenings from 8 10:30. They will also ride individually each evening between times for the short- distance records. Hanson, the profes- sional, will also show his endurance and speed in trials against time. It is now seven vears since lady cvclists have been seen here on the track. In 1889 Helen Baldwin, Kitty O'Brien and several others came here and raced on high wheels at the pavilion. The tournament was very interesting at the time. Of that aggrega- tion Miss Baldwin is the only one now connected with the sport, but she is no longer the champion of old, Miss Farns- worth and the others who are now here having repeatedly defeated her in the East. A quartet of prominent wheelmen from different parts of the country appeared at the track last night, much to the surprise | of their many friends here. They wereR. C. Lennie of Chicago E. E. Stoddard of Cleveland, M. M. Shields of Los Angeles, and Sanford Plummer, captain of the Bay City Wheelmen, who has been away for some little time. They all expressed re- after they had witnessed the splendid night’s sport. During the evening P. Metcalf of the Imperial Clyb tried for the worla’s half- mile paced record, flying start. He was paced by J. P. Jaegling and J. S. Egan on a tandem and covered the half in 1:01, which is not only the world’s indoor record, but lowers the coast record for- merly held by . Byrne. The tandem covered the half i :00 3-5, and kept on riding, making the mile in 2:07 3-5. Sanford Plummer acted as referee of the races, Mr. Welch resigning his position of honor for the evening. During the evening Agnew and Kenna Acme Club, tried for the quarter-mile fi ing-start tandem record, covering the dis- -5 seconds, which is over the record oi Egan and Jaegling. This afternoon at 4 o'clock B. D. Blakes- lee of the Chicago Cycling Club wiil try for Emil Ulbricht’s twenty-five-mile rec- ord, against time, paced by tandem teams of the Imperial Cycling Club. The firstrace last night was a one-quarter mile scratch, run in four heats, two semi- finals and a final. The winners of the four sreliminary heats were N. Ackerman, San ) co Road Club; J. E. Edwards, ¥ George Tantau, Olympic, and H. B Freeman, Bay City. Edwards won his semi-final against Acketman in 34 1-5 seconds. Tantau beat Freeman 1n the sec ond in a pretty finish. Time, :3 In tke final heat Edwards and Tantau, both Olympics, competed. The former won the race with apparent ease in 35 4-5 siow time for him. The-one-mile handicap was run off in eight preliminary heats, two semi-finals and a final. The winners of the heats, their handicaps and riding times wer Thieson, California, 120 yards, 5 4- . Deimas, Garden City, 50, 2: , 80, 2:174-5; F. Y, 16; A. M. Boyden, Reliance, Russell Cushing, Garden Ci C. M.

Chepman, 85 yards, took the second in 2:19 from Smith, Cushing and Boyden, they finishing in that order. Delmas, Garden City, 50 yards, M. M. Cook, Imperial, 80, and Chapman, Olvm- pic, 85, rode out the final heat. Delmas caught up his handicap in two laps and won in 2:281-5, Cook second. It was a very pretty race. The final heat of the ten-mile club cup race proved the most interesting and ex- citing event of the evening. The race had been run in five preliminary heats during previous nights of the tournament, and those who had qualified for the final last night were: . Wells, Bay City Wheel- men; H. W. Squires, Acme Club Wheel- men; L. S. Leavitt, San Francisco Road Jlab, and C. Birdsall, California Cycling Club. They covered the first mile in 3 1-5, and increased the pace a little on secon miles in i 2 2.5; four, 18:07 4-5; 3 On the last two laps of the tenth mile a pretty sprint occurred between the four eight, nine, 2 Wells and Squires drew away other two, the former winning in amid great applause.

MISS PACHECO'S BURIAL. of Friends Accompany Her Remains to the Grave. On Monday afternoon the remains of Diana Pacheco, the young girl found dead with Edward Hack, her lover in an Oak- land lodging-house last Friday, were in- terred in All Saints’ cemetery at Concord, Contra Costa County, As the funeral cor- tege passed the little chapel the bells were tolled, but the body was not taken into the vlace of worship. On arriving at the cemetery the mourn- ers and their friends to the number of sev- eral hundred gathered about the grave and recited the rosary for the dead and other appropriate prayers. The school- children of Concord attended the funeral, as did also many friends of the family, some of whom had come from a consider- able distance, the number of vehicles being over forty. The floral tributes were nu- merous and beautiful, crowns, crosses, stars, hearts, pillows and bouquets being heaped upon the newly made grave py loving hands. Francisco Pacheco and his bereaved wife desire to thank the many sympa- thizing friends who offered their condo- lences or attended the funeral, Crowds LADIES LIKE THE SPORT, The Grand Stand at Ingleside Filled With Fair Race Lovers. SAM LEAKE WON THE HANDICAP Felix Carr Disappointed His Admirers by Finishing Second on Old Braw Scot. The new woman held full sway at the Ingleside track yesterday. She bet her money on an outsider in the betting with a debonnair air born of recklessness, and tried to look cool, but the sweltering hot atmosphere forbade such a thing. Prob- ably not since the introduction of *ladies’ day” bas such a large crowd filed in through the gates of the new course. The rand stand was filled to overflowing with fuh‘ sport-lovers, resplendent in summer suitings and pretty colors. In fact so acked did the big stand become that grenthing space was at & premium, and not a few young ladies sauntered up and down the asphalium in front of the stand. The male portion of the crowd elbowed one another in the betting ring, many of them coatless 1n an endeavor to keep cool. Many faces new to the game were resent, and the legal turf advisers were in their element initiating the unsophisti- cated in the elements of placing their dol- lars on the rignt horse. ‘The sport was most enjoyable, the seven different events all being well contested. Short-priced horses in the betting ring are not popular with a big crowd, and it ha ned to be one of those days that a_soli- ary favorite failed to get to the wire in front. In the way of odds Andy Blakely’s old jumper Bassanio carried off the laurels, taking the hurdle race with 30 to 1 against him. The event with the most classabout it was the seyen-furlong handicap with six speedy three-year-olds facing the starter, and a great contest was iooked forward to. In the betting Kamsin, with top weight, 118 pounds, had first call with 11 to 5 about “THE CALL "RACING CHART.

Macklin took him out 1n front when the barrier was raised and the Dare- bin colt galloped all the way, winnin, he pleased by a couple of lengths. Red Pike, who ran in second position to_the stretch, was 1n_turn passed by both Ben- ham and Sir Vassar, and they finished second and third resf)ective]y. Eleven two-year-olds sported silk in the opening three-and-a-half-furlong spin. There was a hot tip out on the Aunt Jane filly named Jane Andrews, causing her odds to come down from 10 to 5 to 1. Closely pressed by the 40 to 1 chance, Viking, she led all the way, beating the outsider out a nose. Early Notice, the 8 to 5 favorite, finished a close third. Seventeen selling platers next started in a five-furlong scramble. Candor, the 414 to 1 third choice, was in front from the jum:p, and won by two lengths. Road Warmer, a heavily touted good thing, run- ning in second place all the way, was beaten out for the place the last few jumps by the 15 to 1'shot, Hiram Argo. The mile-and- uarter handicap hurdle affair resulted in a big upset, There was no pronounced choice, The Lark, Silver- ado, Red Will and Arctic all being weil played. Silverado, The Lark and Red Will all took a turn at leading over a jump. T. Murphy, astride old Bassanio, gradually edged his way to the front, and taking the last hurdle in the lead, won in_a drive by a length, with Silveradosecond, a neck be- fore the outsider Esperance. The record-breaking Vinctor cut a sorry figure in the mile-and-a-quarter selling event. He remained at evens throughout the betting, and finished a poor third. Coady, on the 11 to 5 second choice Thorn- hill, took the lead shortly after the field was sent away, and full of vim, showed the way to the wire, finishing a length before Red Root, who ran a remarkably good race. The sixth event on the card was a six-fur- long run, with the old-time favorite Felix Carr seen up on the back of honest-going Braw Scot. The gray gelding with his popular rider was a 9 to 5 favorite in the ring. Service and Sweet Rose were the most played of the other starters. Felix as usual got his mount away first, but was soon passed by Uncertainty and Sweet Rose. Service was never headed, winning by three parts of a length. Carr on the gray passed all of the others in the stretch, and although riding a good finish was un- able to catch the leader. The last race, a five-furlong dash with ten starters, was captured very easily by Philomena, one of the second choicesin the betting, who led throughout the running. Model at 25to 1 beat Salisbury II half a length for the place. Track and Paddock Items. Arctic broke down in the hurdle event. Eighteen bookmakers cut in yesterday. Grannan made one of the swell plunges on Service. According to actual count, 5266 ladies | passed through the turnstiles yesterday. R. Stipe, who raced the fast sprinters Lottie D and Redlight, has been reinstated by the Board of Stewards of the California Jockey Club. Stipe was ruled off the Bay District track about one vear ago. W. Clancy was seen in the saddle yester- day astride The Lark for the first time since his accident some weeks ago. The bandicapper was too liberal in his allot- ment of weigut on J. Talbot Clifton’s | horse. ‘While running in second position in the hurdle race Red Will fell' at the third jump. His rider, Swift, escapea without injury. Starter Caldwell was a trifle previous in sending away the horses in the Braw Scot race, and as a consequence Sir Reel, Edge- mount and Walter ‘.} were left at the post. | Sweet Rose opened a 6 to 5 favorite for | the sixth event, but receded in the betting 0 314 to 1. The Gunst selling stake, McLaughlin | handicap, Racing stake, Beverwyck steeplecthase hanaicap, Burns handicap, Pacitic stake and the April special will all be decided at the coming meeting at the Bay District. Stole a Bible. George Russell, a well-known petty larceny thief, was booked at the City Prison last night by Detectives Egan and Silvey on a charge of petty larceny. He wentinto the store of the American Tract Company, 735 Market street, yesterday afternoon and stole a Bible. He was observed and was chased and captured. He recently served six months for stealing per- fumery from Wakelee & Co.’s drugstore. | -_— NEW TO-DAY.
