8 FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1896 STRIKING HACKMEN HOPEFUL OF WINNING. “A Strong Stand Against the Pacific Carriage Company. THEY WANTFULLWAGES Claim to Have the Backing of the Paying Cab-Riding Public. CARVILL WILL NOT YIELD. The “Cabbies” Behave in an Orderly Manner and Have Fun With the “Scabs.” The trouble between O. S. Carvill, chiet owner of the Pacific Carriage Company, and a score or o of his drivers who have refused to go to work under the new schedule of wages, is still unsettled, and is likely to remain so for some little time. The seceders feel strong in their posi- tion, claiming to have the backing of the better part of the company’s patrons, who have signed a petition asking that the former stipend of $150 per day be not re- duced to $1 25. They feel that aithough they are not regularly organized into a union they will get the individual support of 1l members of unions, as well as that of bankers, merchants and nighthawks | who have occasion to use cabs. The undertakers are standing in all right with the ‘‘cabbies.” They have all ed the petition, and they wield a avy hand in such matters. Jn the other side, Mr. Carvill of the ¢ Carriage Company is not worrying, 0 he says. ““There are thousandsof young men in this City who are anxious to work, and be glad to accept § per day. his is the dull season and we must retrench in our expenses. We bave set a scale of wages and if it is not suitable we do not expect the dissatisfied ones to accept it.” So, from the say so of the two factions, or rather the intimation conveyed, each believes itself in the stronger camp. The striking cabmen were very guiet, although they gathered about -the entrance of the company’s stables on Eighth street from morn to late at night yesterda They made no outbreak nor did they try to intimidate the men who had taken their places. All they did was to seek a quiet w with the applicants for their positions and explain to them that y man going to work for the company d canse a hardship to fall upon some of his fellows. se arguments proved effective in all cases, and the company had much difficulty in getting drivers for the hearses they sent out to various funerals. Scme of the strikers were having a good laugh when a CALn reporter met them during the afterncon on_ Eighth street. They were amused over the discomfitare of one of the new men. “It was Frank Warren,”” one of the men said. “We call him Sctab Frank. He went out with a coupe at 6 o'clock this | morning and at 2 o’clock this afternoon another ‘scab’ had to be sent out to get him to his station at Sutter and Kearny streets, Frank got gloriously loaded, and the other driver has just driven him here in_ the coupe he took away. Frank is asleep now in the harness-room.’’ “Tell him about Old Reed,”’ spoke up another ‘“‘cabby.”” ‘Well, it seems that Old Reed also took out a cab early in the morning, and at 1 o’clock in the afternoon hereturned it and i his whip. Runming the gamutin down- town streets where hackmen generally congregate was too much for him and he could not stand the jibes ot ‘‘the gang.” Hellman, an ex-undertaker from Oak- land, and Mike Callaghan, nicknamed “Rat-trap” because he formerly peddled those delusive instruments, are both driv- ing for the company, according to the strikers. Both were seated on hearses yesterday leading their respective Chinese funerals. The strike has affected none other than the Pacific Carriage Company. The strikers claim that the only business the Pacitic Company did yesterday was in furnishing hearses, because they virtually control them;jbut thatin nearly every case the undertakers ordered carriages from the more liberal institutions. The following was received at THE CALL | office yesterday: | SAN FRANCISCO, June 9, 1896. | To the Morning Call: We, the 'undersigned, extend our thanks to THE CALL for the favor and sympathy extended 10 us in its colums in | regard to our cause, and shail be grateful for any further favors you may do us. We remain yours respectfully, STRIKING EMPLOYES PACIFIC CARRIAGE CO. AUIDNG THE WHEELME, { Interesting Letter to “The Call” From Aylward, the Trainer | of Ziegler. Probabiiity of All the Eastern Racing Cracks Coming Here in the Fall. A meeting of the presidents of the six prominent cycling clubs of this City was held Monday evening at the clubhouse of the Bay City Wheelmen to discuss the proposition of making the Central Park { track self-supporting. The clubs repre- | sented were the Olymnvic Cyclers, Olympic | Wheelmen, lmperial Cycling Club, Cali- | fornia Cycling Club, San Francisco Road Club and Bay City Wheelmen. Nothing | definite was decided upon, though it was the sense of the meeting that a track and ;‘raiuing-zroumls were necessary for the | riders of this City and that Central Park | was the most available vlace. Another | meeting will be held shortly to further discuss the matter. The Golden Gate Cycling Club has elected tue following new members: A. > “THE CALL” RACING CHART. Pacific Coast Jockey Club.

Winger, Oakland stable’s ch. g., by Tk-Vidette, ‘Weber, W. J. Black, R. G. Black and L. C. Mershon. The club will elect officers at its regular meeting next Tuesday evening. The Acme Club’s ten-mile road race will be started at 11 A. M. next Sunday from High street, Haywards. It is the fourth race of a series and a large number of riders have entered. Harry Sherwood, president of the Fresno Athletic Club Wheelmen, is in the City on a visit. Robert Mitchell, a popular local wheel- man, who took part in the Bay City Wheelmen’s and Olympic Cyclers’ min- strel shows, will be tendered a benefit by these two organizations and the Native Sons._ It will take place Wednesday even- ing, July 1, at Native Sons’ Hall. Mr. Mitchell recently met with a severe acci- dent, and his many friends bave taken this way of attesting their sympathy and friendship. The entertainment will be largely attended by the wheelmen. Henry Meyer and Matt Lindsay left last Friday a-wheel for the Yosemite Valley. They took a camping outfit with them and will camp along theroad and in the valley. Tkey will be absent about two weeks. There will be a tnree days’ indoor cycle racing tournament at Sacramento on July 23, 24 and 25, conducted by a Mr. Weiner of that place. A track will be built in the big Agricultural Pavilion. Many of the riders from this City wiil compete. Otto Ziegler Jr., accompanied by Trainer Aylward, joined the Natlonal racing cir- cuit at San Antonio, Tex. In aletter irom that place to the cycling editor of THE Cary, dated June 2, Aylward says: It will be a gala day for San Antonio on the 4th inst. Allof the stores and business places will be’ closed, and the excitement over the coming meet runs very high. Texas is simply bicyele crazy. “The climaté does not agree with us very well, itis s0 hot. The thermometer registered 105 deg. in the shade to-day at noon. We are tak- ing very light work, riding only once a day. It is good weather for speed, though, for a rider’s muscles are soft and quick. The party from the coest will arrive Thurs- day afternoon. The track here is a half-mile dirt course, scemingly yery fast, and is located about two miles from town. All the riders on the circuit now are in excellent condition, and there can be no _excuses on that score Otto and myself are trying o get up & party to visit the coast after the racing season is over. We already bave Arthur Gardiner and Trainer John West, Tom Cooper, Pat 0’Connor, the Irishman; Harley Davidson, the Canadian rider, while sanger of Milwaukee and Trainer Dumbleton will go provided Walter is able to sign with some big firm. There is a possibility of Morgan & Wright sending its entire team to the coast for recoras &t the of the season, and our hammer is continually pounding to that end. Mr. Len- nie, their representative there, could help us a good deal, for he knows the record season lasts a great deal longer on the coast than else- where. Your paper could also aid us consider- ably in our efforts to have them send the team out, and by so doing would start a great cycling boom on the coast. M. & W. are an exception- ally liberal firm and they would do the sport more good than any of the teams that have gone for records out there. Their team con- sists of eight riders, four trainers and & man- ager, and it would mean at least twenty men in all were we 1o go for records. There would be Ziegler, Gardiner, Cooper, Sanger, 0’Connor and several others, and with such stars as these on the coast winter racing at Central Park ana San Jose,and the competition of these men with Wells, Foster, Jones, Coulter, the Terrills | and other coast fife; the sport than a also be more dat California if th , would do more to boom vthing else. There would n the National circuit in had these mento follow it from the start. “You can appreciate this. I think nd all question these men will un- douptedly be with you in the fall. Will keep you posted on the ‘outlook, and give news of the circuit as we move along.” Yours as ever, R. P. AYLWARD. If things turn out as Aylward predicts and these crackerjacks winter in California it will create renewed interest in cycle racing here and beyond question their coming here will attract many others, John 8. Jobnson and trainer, Tom Eck, will be in California in the fali and Eddie Bald is also expected. A joint run of the Olympic Club Wheel- men and the Reliance Club Wheelmen has veen arranged by Captains Fawcett and Griffiths for next Sunday to Woodsi San Mateo County. The Camera Club Cy~ clists will go to Camp Taylor. The Bay City Wheelmen will ride to Lake Pilarcitos on June 21, under Captain Plummer. R s To Seek for Gold.

Oakley Easily Disposed of a Field of “Piaters"—Otive Was a Warm Choice. As theend of the racing season draws near some “good things” are being re- marked. A delicious bonbon was popped in the two-year-old race yesterday. How- ard 8, a son of the promising sire, imp. ‘Whistlejacket, was carded as a starter n the two-year.old event. He won his last race very handiiy, defeating among others the good filly Dura. Yesterday the stable put Knos, an obscure jockey, up, and the ring took great liberties with the young- ster. Opening at 6 tol his odds went curable. This was the opportunity awaited and those in on the “know” began getting aboard, forcing the price down to 8. Third to Jerelderio and Dura swinging into the stretch, he leisurely paraded to the front and won cleverly by alength from Dura. As though fortune smiled on the venturous the 8 to 5 favorite Greyhurst, with Piggott up, shied when the barrier flew in the air and was left at the post. It was a cleverly planned coup, for with one of the prominent jockeys at the track in the saddle the colt would have been one of the choices. The card wasa long one, seven events being run off, and the attendance was large. Favorites captured four of the purses, Frank Phillips’ brown borse Oakley was among the fourteen starters in the open- ing race of the day over a mile. The field was a most ordinary one, and on his best erformances it looked a ‘‘moral’’ for him. pening at 4 to 1 the money did not goin on him until post time, when the books rubbed to 2. fi Wilson waited until the stretch was reached, when he let out a wrap, and his mount won snlloping by two lengths in 1:44. Roadrunner, the third choice, took the place from Little Tough by half a length. The Oakland stable’s Last Chance found rather easy game in the third event at five and a balf furlongs, going to the post a9 to 5choice. Corriente, well backed at | a long price, flattered her admirers by leading the field until within a furlong of the wire, where she tired. The favorite then took up the running and passed the stand cver a length clear of Pollock, who made a fine run from the rear and nipped second money from Big Chief by a nose. The clever Sacramento trainer, ‘“‘Hang- ler” Jones, took another fall out of the ring with his gelding George Rose, one of thirteen starters in the mile run that came next. Backed from threes down to 13 to 5 he took the lead from Two Cheers when squared away for the tape and won hand- ity by two lengths in 1:43%4. The latter horse, weli played at 8 to 1, took second place as handily from Flirtilla. A heavy play on Mosier, the Spreckels entry for the fifth race, a six-furlong run, sent the gelding to the posta4to 5 chance. Piggott seemed unable to get him to the front, and La Flecha, against which the books laid 8 to 1, led from the jump and { won easily by five lengths, with El Carmen finishing in the place. Better success awaited the red, white and blue in the next event also over six furlongs, decided under selling conaitions. The handsome Oliver ruled a hot 3to5 favorite and the result was never in doubt. Getting away from the post second, she made all the running and with little to spare at the best, led Nebuchadnezzer out a length in 1:15)4¢. Model ran a good race, winding up in the show. | Afast lot of sprinters started in the | final race of the dng. a five and a half fur- long scramble, with Hymn closing an 8 to 5 choice, backed down from 2} to 1. “THE CALL’S” RACING GUIDE.

The Great Long-Distance Handi- cap Will Mark the End of the Racing Season. The Pacific Coast Jockey Club is as- suredly worthy of compliment for the grand programme prepared to mark the closing down of the racing season at Ingle- side track this afternoon. The long meet- ing that has been such a flattering as well as highly finaneial success for the new racing orgamization will be ushered out with a card that may aptly be termedghe ‘“sport of kings.” Three handicaps will call out the better class of stake horses, while four other well-filled events give the horses of the selling plater division ample opportunity to enrich their respective owners. This will be the best opportunity afforded speculators of backing their favorites until the reopening of the fall racing season on October 1, and the at- tendance promises to nearly equal the big crowd of the opening day. The fact that it is not “ladies’ day,” as customary in the past, will no doubt be disappointing to many of the fair sex. Notwithstanding this fact, they will un- doubtedly be well represented 1n the grand stand. The big two and a quarter mile handi- cap has excited great interest among horsemen, and many wagers have already been made that the world’s record for the distance will be shattered. -Both Thorn- hill and Rey del Bandidos are under the one trainer’s charge, but it is to be hoped that both will be sent out for the stake. The association adds an additional $500 if the record is lowered. H. Martin piloted four winners yester- day, and should have been closer up with Warrago in the opening mile dash. Pecksniff looked like “ready money” until well into the stretch, when he backed up and finished fourth. Al Stemler looked like a defeated can- didate for Congress after the two-year-old run. El Primero stable’s very efficient trainer is said to have placed $1000 on the chances of' Greyhurst, only to have him left at the post. No blame could possibly attach to Starter Havey, however, for the grey youngster, standing perfectly straight before the start, wheeled and jumped back as the barrier was raised. Healways was inclined to be a trifle rank, “Hanger’’ Jones and his Sacramento friends all wore a most contented smile after the victory of George Rose in the fourth race. This is the second win within two weeks of the Three Cheers gelding, well backed on both occasions. Jerome 8 came out of his race a trifle lame, which no doubt accounts for him not being up closer at the finish. Phil Archibald tried all of the crack jockeys on the black horse Charles A with 1ll success. Yesterday he gave little Beau- champ the mount and the black horse at odds of 20 to 1 finished a good second to Montgomery. Had the distance been a trifle further the result might have been reversed Jockey Cairns is trying for reinstate- ment. The clever steeplechase rider was suspended .some months b ack by Judge Joe Murphy for an alleged poor ride on Tom Clarke, one of the most uncertain jumpers on the coast. One breezy day at the Bay District track the St. Louis clique plaved Montalvo for a “killing” and Cairns on Goid Dust, an outsider, went out i front and won all the way, with the ‘“‘good thing’” Montalvo second. All of the other starters in the race were *‘dead,” including Judge Murphy's own horse, Colonel Weightman, and” he, at that time officiating in the stand with Joseph J. Burke, in the absence of C. E. Trevathan, failed to notice the raw ride put up by T. Murphy on the Colonel. Ever after this incident Cairns stood in bad repute with the St. Louis crowd, and when he appeared atthe new track was promptly shelved, through the machinations. it is claimed, of Andy Blakeley. Joe Murphy came to California amid a blowing of trumpets, but created a frost that still pre- vades the air of the local tracks. 1f he had watched the curves and in- shoots that the St. Louis crowd and Jerry Chorn put over the plate half as closely as he noticed any little move of California horsemen and jockeys, be would have made himself much more popular. His noted creation of the now celebrated ‘‘silken cord” theory in connection with the rank pulling of Lizzie H by Jockey Garner, even now causes a titter among those familiar with the way the coin was bet that day. Cairns hasalways borne a good reputation, far better than the aver- age steeplechaser, and on this, the closing day, the Ingleside judge could do no more meritorious act than sign the boy’s rein- statement. DILHAN AND DENNAN. Two Applications for Divorce, and Nar- ratives of Cruelty. Joseph Dilhan, through his lawyer, Martin Stevens, has brought suit in the Superior Court {0 obtain a divorce from his wife, Grace A. Dilbhan. According to the papers in the case, the defendant is an energetic and aggressive inaividual, with a tendency toward the infliction of mental cruelty. 1t is asserted that during the months of April, May and June, 1895, she was particularly restless and on one oc- casion struck the plaintiff with her clenched fist, and as for language she used the kind that would bring a blush to the Barbary Coast. In 1894 Dilhan kept a riding academy in Portland, Oregon, and among the patrons and patronesses of the academy were ladies and gentlemen who, 1t is alleged, were irequently disturbed and sometimes in- sulted by the breezy conduct of the de- fendant. The defendent, so the document states, is J)ossessed of an ungovernable temper and a jealous disposition. Dilhan there- fore asks for a decree on the grounds of cruelty. James F. Dennan, & police officer on the regular force, has begun proceedings in the Buperior Court to get a divorce from Mafgie Dennan. The wedding took place in January of this year. Amcng some of the grounds which the plaintiff mentions are cruelty, infidelity and intoxication. Andrew Ruddell, Joha Doe Wallace and John Doe Lynch are mentioned as asso- ciates of the defendant. The complaint alleges that she consorts with low and vile company of both sexes. —————— Beaten by Women. Three women, a man and a boy fell upon John Summers, & grocer, on Brady street, Mon- day night, and scratched and beat him. They were Mrs. Maggie Myrtle, Mrs. Bridget Ken- nah, Mrs. Mary Hogue, J. M. Hogue and Thomas Hogue, his son. Summers sware out warrants for their arrest yesterday, and the: 'Hhe.fl-" arrested last night, but relema on bail. REGENTS NOT T0 TAX STUDENTS, Wilmerding School Site Deferred Until Next November. THE GOVERNOR'S MISHAP He Asked for a Little Delay and a Full Measure Was Granted. THE AFFILIATED COLLEGES. Judge Wallace Gives Notice That He Will Move to Reinstate Pro- fessor Bonnell. While fishing in one of the mountain streams of the Yosemite region, Governor Budd slipped and, in a very unstatesman- like manner, fell on a rock: He was slightly disabled by the accident and tele- phoned a request that the Board of Re- gents defer action on the selection of a site for the Wilmerding School -until he was able to attend. The regents heard the news and listened to the request at the meeting yesterday forenoon. Not know- ing the extent of the Governor’s injuries, but assuming that he ought to have plenty of time to recover, the regents postponed the subject until next November. It was considered that several members of the board had goue to Europe, that others were going away on summer vaca- tions, and that there would be a lively political campaign this fall, to say nothing of other diverting influences, so the first meeting in November after the Presiden- tial election was hit upen as the right time to select a site. e The regents present when the decision was reached were Messrs. Phelps, Halli- die, Denicke, Wallace, Kellogg, Chase, Marye and John E. Budd. hey were subsequently re-enforced by Messrs. Mil- ler, Reinstein, Rowell, Jeter, Martin, Slack and Foote, Citizens of Berkeley residing near the university desire permission to_cross the college erounds in vehicles, and so peti- tioned for an opening to be made in the north side of the grounds, The request was referred to the proper committee. The finance committee reported in favor of lending $50,000 to James B. Lanke- snim, taking as security a mortgage on building and property on the southeast corner of Third and Spring streets, Los Angeles, valued at considerable over $109,000. Regent Hallidie wanted a test case made of the refusal of the State Printer to do university printing. He suggested that the work should be sent to the Sacramento printing office. Regent Phelps explained that one of the many State boards threw in during one vear printing that cost the State $17.000, Lence the Legislature passed an act requir- ing State boards to pay for printing from their respective appropriations. In order that the regents should not be taken by surprise Regent Wallace gave notice that at the next meeting he would move to displace Professor Flagg and put in Professor Bonnell. The regent re- marked that Mr. Bonnell was once regard- ed as the ideal professor. Many eminent men had borne witness to his excellence as a_teacher, and among them was Judge Winans. The regent then referred tosome past history involving the resignation or retirement of Professor Bonnell. It was said in whispers, *'Oh, don’t look into the charges; for the creait of the university don’t inquire about it.”” But the case, said Judge Wallace, was looked 1into, and the charge vanished like smoke. 1t was all vapor. Continuing, Judge Wallace said: “Flagg, when poor and friendless, was taken to Professor Bonmell's home, and the fact has now come_to lifht that the movement to displace Bonnell was Flagg's work. I propose now, as an act of justi that Flagg shall be turned out an nell put in his place.” Regent, Marye regretted that the case shonld be reopened. Regent Martin indicated that he did not want the question renewed. The proposition to tax students $10 a term for incidentals then came -up. Speeches in support of the measure were made by Regents Hallidie, Milier, Martin, Marye and Phelps. Opposing remarks were made by Regents Wallace, Foote and John E. Budd. ‘When the roll was called the regents voting_for the tax were: Denicke, Kel- logg, Hallidie, Martin, Marye, Miller, Phelps—T7. The dissenting regents were: Jeter, Chase, Budd, Foote, Reinstein, Rowell, Slack and Wallace—8. Regent Reinstein urged that some steps be taken to award a contract for work on e, Bon- j the Affiliated Colleges before June 30, in order to prevent the lapse of half the ap- propriation to the State treasury. Inquiry dieclosed the fact that the plans have not been returned from Sacramento. Before any work can be done the plans must be approved by the Governor, Secre- tary of State and Treasurer. Several motions were discussed. One contemplated a reference of the subject to the committee on building and grounds with authority to advertise for bids as soon as thelflnns should be returned. Judge Wallace still adhered to an opin- ion previously expressed, that the regents were not governed by the State lnwiear- ing on the construction of buildings. He remarked that the Attorney-General had been asked for an opinion on the subject. The regents finaily decided to meet again Tuesday, two weeks hence. bt bt sy e Six Months in Jail.
