THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, APRIL 7 then sent in, which, on reaching thg ears of the crowd, caused them to think a water-melon party was in progress, and | the boukies were gradually compellea to swipe the price to 12 to 1. 20 | _ Parthamax, a brown colt by imp | Maxim and the Cambridge stable’s Peace- man and Modestia attracted the most at- tention in the betting, 8 to 5 being offered against either. At the post there was little delay. Cochrane was away third with | Sister Adele when the barrier was raised, but she fell back and was not in the first tlight as the stretch was reached, the lead- ers at the point being Proselyte, Partha- max and Hohenzollern. Cochran took the outside with his mount when headed for home, and as he made his move was fol- lowed by Modestia. The pair soon drvew up on equal terms iith Parthamax, who had assumed the lead, and a rattling drive ensued to the stand. As the wire was passed Sister Adele was a nose in front of Modestia, with the Burns & Waterhouse entry a head farther away. The four fur- longs were covered in 52 seconds, an excel- lent run. - The condition of the track was a surprise to race-goers. In place of a sea of mud, such as used to greet the eye at the old track, it was possible to walk across the course without soiling the shoes. To be sure the going was heavy, but it was not necessary to run the horses with search- A CHIP OF THE OLD BLOCK, Sister Adele, a Daughter of Riley, Took a Race in a Hard Drive.

W. O'B. Macdonough’s imported mare Miss Brummel upset calculations just a trifle in the mile run. Major Cook and Yankee Doodle both opened n the betting at6to5. The coin went in on the Major sending him to the post at evens, while tbe Doodie horse receded to 9 to5. The two first choices had things pretty much their own way to the stretch, the Major leading, simply galloping. Miss Brum- mel, who nndpbeen shut off at the far turn, came fast when straightened for the wire, and catching the Major about a furlong {from the stand, beat him out in a drive by half a length. Sister Mary was thrown in the mile and a sixteenth handicap with 102 pounds up, and backed from 3 to 2t06 to 5 had the race “‘up her sleeve’’ from the jump. Tak- ing the lead turning into the back-stretch, | she won in a common canter, with Sam | Leake, who ran a fine race under the con- ditions, a good second. The game and consistent Walter J se- cured a winning bracket again in the fifth event, a scven-furlong spin, with eight starters. Perseus, with l’ Sullivan up, opened an 8 to 5 favorite, receding to twos, Wwhile Walter J was backed down from 214 to 9to 5. The latter took the lead before a furlong had been covered, and although pressed very closely by All Smoke as the stretch was reached, drew away and won by a length. Perseus was third, two lengths behind A1l Smoke. The one-eyed Wilson was a 2 to 1 choice | for the last race, also at seven furlongs, |and leading throughout lasted enough to beat Neptune a length and a half. ~ Poilock was third.

Sam Leake surprised some of the wise ones who thought that the Darebin horse could not travel over a distance of ground. When owners put up jockeys of the cali- ber of P. Sullivan, they certainly must be on very friendly terms with the feed men |and tailors. Perseus would have been | fighting for the money with a competent boy in the saddle. Walter J, the game son of imp. True Briton, promises to develop into as good if not a better horse than Rey del Bandi- dos, by the same sire. He cost his pres- ent owner, ‘“Gloucester’” McDermitt, the munificent sum of $10. If old Nephew could have run a bit the first part of the journey one-eyed Nelson would had to have been content with sec- ond monevy. op.

BOATHOUSE, Commodious Quarters at Belve- dere for the Club’s Row- ing Annex. Old Bichard Fishhouse on Gladys Beach Undergoing Extensive Alterations. The Olympic Club rowing annex 0 | intends to have a clubhouse at Bel- | vedere which for accommodations and | appointments will be second to none on | the bay. Indeed, it is claimed by some of | the members that the new quarters will be able to house more boats and will have a larger number of racing and pleasure boats than any other rowing clubhouse in or near San Francisco. The Olympic aquatic men have secured the old Bichard fishhouse, which stands Valentines Island, opening into Belvedere Cove. The Bichard Eouse is a long build- ing, with tenements in the upper story, and a spacious apartment beneath. The upstairs portion will not be used by the | Olympics, as_there is ample room in the lower part for the purposes of a well- equipped rowing club. This half has | been thoroughly reconstructed, with racks | for _boats, with locke; etc., round the | walls. A bigh fence which assures privacy | has been built, and now a force of work- men are employed in building a landing. President Foster of the San Franciscn and North Pacific Railway has generously contributed to this portion of the work, as he takes a deep interest in the new club, The piling for the landing, a consider- able undertaking i cove. men’s advent in the placid cove will in- duce other clubs to ook in that direction for a rowing course, and that will increase | trayel between San Franciscoand Tiburon. the water is well sheltered and affords every opportunity for good work com- bined with pleasure in the summer season. The opening day is not far off now. ——————— A FAMOUS SPRINTER. Luther H. Carey, the Ex-Amateur Cham- pion, Arrives From the East. Luther H. Carey, the famous amateur sprinter, is in this City, where he proposes | to remain for some time. Mr. Carey has retired permanently from | the cinder path, and will in future give | his undivided attention to a religious so- ciety of which he is a representative. The retired sprinter is a graduate of Princeton, and at ote time held the championship of America at 100-yard racing. He held the 10-second record for a num- ber of years, and was defeated a few years ago for the American championship by | Owens in 9 4-5 seconds. ‘When Carey went to England with the American team he easily disposed of his competitors in the sprints. He also con- | tested in Paris at the championships, | and won every race in which | he participated. ~ Very few sprinters | can boast of as good a record as the ex- | champion, who says that he will never again wear a running shoe and that he has permanently retired from athletics. Carey’s great race with Owens is still fresh in the minds of all amateur sprinters, The men left their marks together at the crack of the pistol, and ran shoulder to shoulder for ninety yards, when Owens, who was a powerfully bullt’ feliow, forged aheaa and breasted the tape, a winner by a few feet.

Revival of Go'd-Mining Will Impart Life and Labor in Other Fields. The Gold-Mining Exchangs of San Francisco was formally opened for busi- ence. He had seen the wonderful exam- ples of energy and the large development of wealth due to the enterprise of the hon- est miner. Touching on the financial questions of the hour, he remarked that the issue had been reduced to coin vs. paper, to bullion vs. bonds. eferring to Dumas’ fiction of ‘‘Monte Cristo,”” he remarked that the tropical imagination of the author had fancied $80,000,000 as the fable of wealth. That was the dream of the richest imagination of 1844. Yet in our day two of the mines of the' Comstock lode produced $150,000,- 000. The dream of 44 was the fact of '77. The story of what may be accomplished by the revival of gold mining in California cannot be told. The deeper you go the richer becomes the yield. ] The transformation in San Francisco when $1,000,000 a month was distributed in dividends was marvelou We have not wholly lost the force of that splendid feeling. The great buildings of San Fran- cisco attest in a measure the wealth pro- | duced by the mines. Mr. Scott estimated that $400,000,000 in gold still remained in the United States, but acknowledged that vast sums of the treasure, owihg to our system of finance, WALTER TURNBULL, PRESIDENT i u}[ll" x * OF THE NEW GOLD EXCHANGE. ness yesterday. To signalize the event many representative citizens were invited to assemble in the rotunda of the aulls building at 11 A. . and at the hour ap- pointed the large space reserved for the audience was filled with interested listen- ers, Promptly at the time designated Walter Turnbuil, president of the exchange, opened the proceedings. He spoke of the banding together of fifty men engaged in all classes of legitimate business and pledg- ing to assist in promoting gold mining in California and elsewhere. He believed there never was a time in California’s his- tory where such an opportunity was pre- sented as the present for combined effort in the development of our gold mines. *Our hills_are overrun with prospectors who are bringing back the most glowing re- ports and begging their finds. Tiius has the necessity arisen, | and for this reason are we here to-day, to inaugurate our exchange, which will bring together the honest miner and the man of capital. ““We need something to shake us out of | the lethargy that has possessed us so | long, and we need it right now. In my for capital to develop | | oprortunity for labor. had gone out of the country. It was the opinion of the speaker that California re- quired development rather than popula- tion. rvery man ownihga transportation line or a vast tract of land wanted more people to carry and more purchasers of land. What we need is the extension of The miner in the pursuit of his calling requires many arti- cles of merchandise. He must have his house to dwell in.and so a market is created for lumber. He must have ma- chinery, so work is given to the manufac- turer. “Gold and silver mining,” said Mr. Scott, “'is the very basis of prosperity when honestly administered.” The in- dustry vroduces not only the necessities of life, but the luxuries. For the edification of General Turnbull, the speaker made 1n- ciaental reference to French dinners—a cold bottle and a hot bird. Recurring to the subject of thelife which mining imparted to other industries, Mr. Scott said: ‘‘Go to the Union Iron Works to-day and you will see a room 215 feet square crowded with mining machinery for California, Mexico, Arizona, Montana and Utah. . The quantity is vastly greater than the works ever had in the palmist days of the past. Instead of 300 menon the payroll, asin the old mining days. we have now 2000. What keeps these 2000 i | MAJOR D. E. MILES, TREASURER OF THE NEW GOLD EXCHANGE. opinion, California is on the eve of the greatest minini prosperity the world has ever known. Few of us are really aware how very near it is. “If the miner had had the advantage of the same number of miliions of dollars which the banker has advanced to the farmer, fruit-grower, vineyardist and home-builder during so many years, would not California have been 1in the midst of prosperity now? ‘“‘But the needy miner was never eiven a hearing; he was treated as a tramp, and his story considered a Munchausen tale, “‘But these conditions have changed and the money is now seeking the mimner, and this exchange has set out to bring them | together. “We want to see & mining boom. We want to see money made to put up more buildings like this in which we now stand. We have seen enough vacant stores and offices and enough povertv. We wanta little new blood, even if it strikes fever heat once in a while, and we want to give some of the present generation a chance to become heavy, respectable and affluent citizens, who shall have made their money while the fever was on.” Irving M. Scott next addressed the audi- men employed? It is their ability to get their pay for an honest day’s work. What limit can yon have to your prosperity if | you take out $2 a dav when only $1 a day was formerly taken ? Scarcely had the apg;anse following Mr. Scott’s speeck subsided, when President Turnbull introduced Hugh Craig, presi- dent of the Chamber of Commerce. He began by translating the motto of San Francisco rendering it *‘Gold in peace and in war iron.” He did not hold to the opinion that the advancement of agricult- ure meant the decadence of mining. When wheat is selling at a cent a pouna, and | other productions of the farm proportion- ately low, there was no good encourage- ment for agriculture. In the development of California mines only the surface has been prospected. Within a very few years mining will become so important " that every detail will be on a scientitic basis. In closing, Mr. Craig paid a compliment to the ability and patience displayed by Walter Turnbull in the organization of the exchange. He also extended the good wishes of the Chamber of Commerce f o the grou rity of the new institution. John Daggett, vice-president of the ex- change ana superintendent of the United States Mint, spoke as a practical mining man of forty years’ experience. He as- serted that the institation of the Gold Mining Exchange was organized for a purpose as important as any that had ever 'been inaugurated in California. Mining was the true home industry that should be encouraged. It was the source of un- failing wealth, as you find scales in all parts of the world to give you the value of the product. The object of the association was not to induce speculation. If that had been the purpose he would not have joined. It did ropose to give security to investors who Enew nothing of mining. He traced the discouragement of the mining industry, which was often caused by placing the management of mining property in the hands of ignorant and incompetent men. ‘When mining is justly treated es a legiti- mate industry it will meet with as much success as any other calling derives. The mining industry creates wealth. The building in which ‘we are assembled was erected by D. O. Mills, who made his start in Tuolumne County by selling water to the miners. The first’ million- dollar draft ever drawn in California came from the mines, and was drawn by John Gashwiler. Mr. Daggett quoted statistics prepared by Charles Yale, statistician of tne Mint, showing that last year in California 14,000 miners produced $15,000,000. He asked if any other industry could equal such pro- duction. Colonel P. T. Dickinson made the clos- ing remarks, introducing, as he said, a little sentiment. Observing that time, proverbiaily made for slaves, was also made for sovereigns, he produced a bean- tiful watch and presented the timepiece to General Turnbull. The president of the exchange accepted the gitt and expressed the hope that the institution so opened would never close, but would live to be quoted as mining au- thority in the capitals of London, Paris and Berlin. The officers of the newly opened ex- change are: President, Walter Turnbull ; vice-president, John Daggett; treasurer, D. E. Miles; secretary, J Crosett. BOTH SIDES WILL. G, Strained Situation of the Strike on the Parrott Building. Unions of the Council Instruct Their Delegates Not to Let the Men Go Back. The building trades’ strike against the Parrott building has reached a decidedly interesting, as well as a strained, situa- tion. The superintendent announces that be will not delay the work another day, and if to-day the affair is not settled he will get men from any source and put them to work in the strikers’ places. The council and the unions it represents are equally determined not to yield, and it is provosed to carry the fight on to the bitter end if the job is not unionized. The council’s delegates say they are satisfied that the Bruschke coniract could be broken by those in authority if they wished to do so and at no loss to the estate. Several small jobs were struck by the business agents yesterday. There is no change in the situation of the painters’ strike. o WILL NOT GIVE IN. The Building Trades Councll Is De- termined to Unionize the Big Parrott Bulldinc A long meeting of the Building Trades Council was held last evening. The busi- ness agents presented reports upon the strike and 1ts progress. H. M. Saunders stated that he had unionized a mixed job on Second avenue. He had also ordered a walkout on a mixed job on Fell and Scott streets, where non-union men were at work. On Twenty-fifth and Folsom streets he had found a job where a number of lathers were at work who had formed a union of their own outside of the Building Trades Council. He gave the regular union men orders to strike the job if theoutsiders continued to work. The report was made that the reason the members of the Electrical Workers’ Union on the Parrott building did not walk ont was because the union is virtually under the control of electricians who are in the employ of an iron manufacturing firm and a streetcar electric railroad. It is likely that a new union that will affiliate with the council will be organized. It was decided to publish a manifesto stating to_the public the causes of the strike, and imrhcularly the strike on the Parrott building. . A report was made tnat Bruschke of the furniture company is organizing a “union’’ among his workmen on the profit-sharing principle. A communication was received from Carpenters’ and Joiners’ Union No. 483 stating the attitude of the union on the Parrott job and read. It appears elsewhere in this issue. The delegates from the Wood and Furni- ture Unicn announced that that body will hold an open meeting to-night at 1159 Mis- sion street, to which all of that craft— union and non-union—have been invited. Agents Saunders and Mclvor stated the osition that the superintendent of the arrott building had taken relative to the men returning to work. The council de- cided not to back down from the position already taken to unionize the building if it is possible. Further efforts will be made to-day to bring about a settlement that will relieve the strike on the building. Le g s WILL RESUME WORK. Superintendent Stanford Says There WIll Be No Further Delay In the Parrott Block. M. E. Stanford, the superintendent of the Parrott building, has determined that the work delayed two days by the Building Trades’ strike shall not be delayed any longer. In discussing the labor troubles in which the job is involved he said in sub- stance: So far the strike has not been a very serious drawback to us. It has given several depart. ments an_opportunity to catch up with their ‘work. The building is too nearly completed now to permit further delay. I have nothing against trades unions, but I feel that this strike isunjust. It called out several hundred men because of a disagreement with one contractor, Mr. Bruschke, who only employs a small force of men. Now, we have no control over Mr. Bruschke, as he has a contract to perform cer- tain work, and it does not matter to him whether or not the entire bullding is tied up. He will fulfill his contract in_spite of all that can be done. He will be here about two weeks longer. 1Is it reasonable to have all of the other work stopped by a strike until he ets through? While his men stay with him fe can g0 right aiong without interruption and when he is finished the union men can come back. That seems to be the situation from the union standpoint. From the other side, my position, I must say that this cannot be done.” The work will have t0 go on, union or no union. The Emporium Company expect to occupy the first. and second floors of the building scme time be- tween the 15th and 30th of this month. We will begin at once to move goods into the northeast corner, facing on Market street, at once. What I propose to dois this: Give the men ‘who were ordered out an ofiportuni!y to re- turn and complete the work that many of them began a vear or 8o ago. Iwould prefer that the old hands should return, but if they will not then I will get anybody who desires 10 go to work. 3 Iwill give the men until to-morrow (Tuas- dn)? todecide what they intend to do. There will be no trouble in filling the building with competent workmen in all lines, and if we cannot get the men we want we will have to take the men we can get, but there will be no further delay in the work on this building. I'wish that the matter could be settled, and I hope that it will be without any furtherf an- noyance. While it is true that the innocent frequently suffer with the guilty, in this case there are;too many innocent men who are suffering. Mr. Stanford stated that neither the plumbers nor the electrical workers left the building yesterday morning, as ex- pected. Mr. Kerns, the contractor, who has sev- eral contracts in the building, is very de- sirous that the difficulty should be settled without further annoyance. When the strike was ordered about 100 of his men walked out, and only a few toremen and apprentices are at work. 5 In speaking of the superintendent’s ulti- matum, he said that while he had no wish to clash with the anion, still if the super- intendent directed that the work be re- sumed he would be obliged to resume operations with the best men he could secure. He says that there are plenty of men on the market who will be only too glaa to work in the places left by those who walked out. As soon as he receives the order from the suverintendent he will Tesume operation A Carpenters’ Union No. 483.
