THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1896. MR, SCHOONMAKER AND HIS TRIP Forcihle Speech in Oakland by the New Jersey Man. What He Found in Illinois, South Dakota, Nebraska and Wyoming. VALUE OF MR. BRYAN'S SPOON. Farmers Are Looking at the Silver and Protection Issues in a Practical Way. F. X. Schoonmaker, a bright journalist of New Jersey, who is here in the interest of protection to American labor against the competition of foreign pauper labor, is a distinguished looking man in the prime of life, with bair prematurely white, forming a strong contrast to his healthy, pink complexion. He said to & CALL reporter last night that McKinley would carry the State of Lilinois by 200,000 plurality. Leading Democrats of Cook County, in which Chi- cago is situated, concede that county to McKinley by 75,000. Mr. Schoonmaker went on to tell about the great change in public sentiment which nas taken place during the last few months in Illinois. It was supposed all along that the rural districts were for silver, but he did not believe that they ever had been. They believed that the re- duction of the tariff on wool and other articles closed the Eastern factories and caused the distress among the working people and the general depression in prices. But when the silver men came out and sald that the distress had been caused by a dearth of silver they listened to them. The novelty has worn away, and the State will give a bigger majority than ever before for the Republican party. “The State Central Committee in Ilii- pois 1s a splendid orgenization led by John Tanner,” said .Mr. Schoonmaker. “He is one of those men very like Abra- ham Lincoln, and always on the ground with both feet.” 7 The next State visited by Mr. 8choon- maker was South Dakota. It is only twelve years old and its pioneers are youngs and energetic. The. State once went Populist and for that reason its credit was almost ruined, capital being scared away. Senator Pettigrew of that State, thinking that the silver iever wonld last, bolted the National Republican Con- vention at St. Louis and hurt the credit of the State still more. The system of agriculture in that State has become more diversified, no less than 117 dgiries having been established there within the past two years. These need protection. The people intend to redeem their credit this year by giving McKinley | the largest possible majority in order to show beyond the possibility of a doubt that they have returned to sound business principles. When Bryan was nominated Nebraska was for him by 30,000 plurality. The Re- publicans quietiy took a poll and they found that success was about an even thing. It happened that crops were ex- traordinarily heavy there this year and the farmers found that they haa some surplus to sell. Then they began to look around for customers, but found the peo- ple of the East unable to buy their prod- ucts because of the shutting down of the factories. Then the farmers reasoned that if Bryan should be elected he would not take his seat until March 4, and the new Congress would not meet until next De- cember, and they could not afford to hold their produce till then. They reason that if McKinley should be elected capital would be unlocked and the factories would be opened the day atter election and they would find an im- mediate market. The city of Lincoln will give 2500 majority for McKinley. “‘The shopkeepers and business men of that city are wild about the crowds that are_going to Canton, Ohio, to see Major McKinley,” continued the speaker. ‘se- fore elettion day probably a million peo- ple will have visited Canton, and as each erson will spend there, on an average, 3, that means $3,000,000 to the stores and hotels of Canton. The people of Lincoln say that if Bryan would only stay at home and not run around the country like a — fool he would havea million of people coming to see him in Lincoln and leaving $3,000,000 there, t0o.” Wyoming is for silver and McKinley, strange as it may appear. The people bave numerous undeveloped resourcesin that State which need the aid of capital and protection, and the people feel that in order to attract capital the State must be under sound Republican rule. They say that McKinley, with the Republicans and better element of the Democrats behind him, can be trusted to do more for silver than the office-hungry gang behind Bryan. Mr. Schoonmaker tulg that in New York there were about 1,200,000 voters and 1,700,000 savings banks depositors, the de- positors exceeding the voters in number by half a million. Bryan went to New York and said to those depositors: “‘Your money is now equal to 32 to1, but vote for 16 to 1 and you will get one- balf of what vou have now, but after awhile it will be 32 to 1 again.’’ He asked those depositors to cut the value of their money in two. Mr. Schoonmaker was for seven years a member of the staff of the New York Times. After that he went into the Press Association business and was the first gen- eral manager and organizer of the United Press. He was succeeded by Walker D, Ppillips. Mr. Schoonmaker is now the American manager of the Central News Company of England. He is not now connected with the United Press. MSIEN . e IN OAKLAND. A Strong and Concise Speech by Mr. Schoonmaker Last Night. OAKLAND, CAL., Oct. 8.—The Republi- cans of this city crowded Exposition Hall to-night to listen to the Hon. F. X. Schoon- maker of New Jersey. The <peaker was escorted to the hall by the Army and Nuvy Veterans, 100 strong; Republican League, headed by a band; the Young Men’s Republican Leagne in uniform, tifty strong. The speaker was accom- panied in his caerriage by Judge Hamilton and Fred Stratton. The Forty-eignth Assembly Club in white uniforms, forty strong, followed. In the front seats sat 100 members of the Women’s Republican Club of Alameda County, Alice 1. Wells president, with their beauti- ful badges. & A. C. Henry was chairman of the even- ing, and after a short address by Fred Stratton introduced the Hon. F. X. Schoonmaker. He began unpacking a grip, saying, “I always tell peouple that ‘\wbeu a2 man goes so far from home he Rhould go well loaded.” Continuing, he said: “Every dollar I have I have earned, and I know no way by which I can vet any without working for it. I don’tcare a cent for the Republican party as a party nor for the Democratic party as a party. I am out for F. X. Schoonmaker and the | matter vigordusly.- | retary of the Italian Chamber of Com- bgtter on his bread. Whichever party Will help him most will get my vote. “‘Every man voter is—and I hope soon every woman in California will be—a shareholder in this country, and every four years you hold your annual meeting. When you held your last meeting you were asked 1f labor had not been well paid, capital invested, business good and agri- culture prosperous. You admitted it, and were asked to return the directors. The other side admitted all this, but urged you to vote for a new_board who would give vou free trade. *While you had been pros- perous you will be more 0 under a free- trade board of directors.’ Well, you did it, and now how do you like what you got? “Do they come before you now and point to their promises, saying they have kept them and asking you to continue them in office? No. They would not do that, but as they never kept one of those promises they now come before you with more promises to break. Tais time they offer you free silver.” He' then treated of the cause of hard times. Stopping ol miils, he uid,_threy men out of employment, caused railroads to stop hauling coal, lime and all raw ma- terial, thus throwing more men out of em- ployment. He asserted that 7,000,000 men had lost their positions during the four years, and that on each of them five de- pended, making 35,000,000 people affected, and as these grew poorer they had to stop using flour until it had affected the farmer to the extent of 187,000,000 bushels of wheat a year. e then produced a five-dollar gold piece, a gold eagle, two packages of 50 pennies, 20 Mexican dollars and 10 American dollars and a silver spoon. With these he began, and in very care- fully worded and plainly demonstrated propositions carried his audience through the money question. “Here 15 a spoon you can buy at a jew- eler’s for 50 cents,” he said. “I owe your chairman a dollar, I give him this spoon and say, ‘Here, Mr. Man, take this spoon and blot off my account.””” “He says ‘Oh, no, Mr. Jeweler, 1 can buy that spoon for 50 cents.” I say ‘You won't? ‘Well, I'll get even with you; I'll vote for Mr. Bryan and when he is elected I'll send this to Washington and have it coined into adollarand then you will have to take it.” [This set the house yelling and stamping which was kept up for sev- eral minutes.] “I know that Mr. Bryan is either con- sciously or unconsciously an enemy of silverand I tell you how I know. Once there | was a great statesman that had a Yankee notion of trading. That was James Gil- lespie Blaine and he put in his time trad- ing, and every time he traded he got five marbles to our one. He attached the re- ciprocity law to the McKinley bill and | with that our goods go into every country. Mr. Bryan was a man that voted to repeal the reciprocity. If McKinley is elected we will have that bili re-enacted.” ITALIANS AROUSED. Bryan’s Editorlal Insult to the Sons of Italy Has Caused Excite- ment. The large Italian colony is much stirred up by a controversy arising out of the gratuitous insults to the Italian people of America which were uttered with ruth- lessness and brutality a short time ago by Bryan’s newspaper, the Qmahka Worid- Herald, As was reported in THE CALL at the time, the World-Herald, of which W. J. Bryan was then the responsible editor, discussed the Italian population in its editorial columns on August 8 and 12 last, and spoke of the Italisn im- migrants to America in many terms |of scorn and, contempt, calling them the most undesirable class that came to our shores and asserting thatasa whole they were of the criminal class, ever ready to ply their stiletto. The mat- ter was taken up by the Italian press throughout the country, incltuding I'Italia of San Francisco; but it did not reappear in the local English papers until Monday morning, when the Examiner presented a report of a meeting of the small Italian Democratic Club in which the paper credited Dr. Pescia with saying that he was glad to see that 1'Italia had come out for Bryan and nad thrown to the winds the Republican accusation that Bryan's paper was opposed to the Italians. Either this speech or this newspaper re- port or both were pure fakes, and the Italian colony, three-fifths of which is for McKinley, 1s much stirred up about it and about the vigorous articles which are appearing in I'Italia. The incident is of much importance and interest among the Italian population, and L’Italia in its issues of Saturday and Mon- aay last gives much space to a clear expo~ sition of it. By Saturday’s issue of the paperit appears that the editor, weeks ago, sent to the editor of the World-Herald a telegram of inquiry which was never an- swered. Then I'Italia of Chicago took up the Soon C. Dondero, sec- merce here, wroie a personal letter of in- quiry to Mr. Bryan and he received a reply in which-Bryan inclosed a copy of a brief denial of responsibility which he had sent_to I'Italia of Chicago, which did not publish it. In this denial Mr. Bryan simply said that he was only the financial editor of the paper and was not accountable for the particular utterance in question. It wasin a spirit of tairness that 1’Italia ublished the letters of Dondero and ryan on Saturday, but the paper ac- companied them with its unmistakable declaration that as Bryan had recently de- clared through the press that his only in- come was that derived from his editorship of the World-Herald he was responsible for the utterances of his paper. Thus the absence of foundation for the Examiner’s report of Monday morning, and yesterdav's issue of I’Italia devotes | considerable space to foreibly refuting the fake story and reasserting in a fair spirit the opinion of the paper that Bryan was morally responsible for the wanton insult of theItaiian people offered by the paver of which he is editor. “But, after all,”” says I'Italia,”” these outrageous slurs on the Italian people are not the chief, or indeed a very important reascn for our opposition to Mr. Eryan's candidacy. This matter, important as it may be, is incidental. We will continue to oppuse Mr. Bryan, because we honestly believe that his election would bring ruin to the American people.’” b S The Woman’s Annex.

Sanborn, Vail & Co. x THE FIGHTERS OF THE NEW CHTER How They Are Massing Their Forces Behind Joseph I Dimond. John ‘McCarthy Opens Out in Behalf of the Teachers and Speaks of F. A. Hyde. PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THE LINE The Hibernia Bank Fiooding ‘the City Hall With Dimond Badges and the Fight Is On. The plans for the organized anti-charter fight about to be launched proceeded actively yesterday among the conglom- eration of forces which the friends of Joseph I. Dimond are industriously mass- ing behind him, but night came without the initial moye which will signal the opening of the campaign being definitely announced. This initial move will be a great public anti-charter mass-meetinz, at which vigorous speakers will talk and at which steps will be taken to organize an anti- charter campaign association, which will have a carefully selected campaign com- mittee and abundant moral and financial support. The leading friends of Dimond and the leading opoonents of the charter who are associated in this incipient campaign fight have figured out a complete municipal or- ganization which will extend not only to every Assembly district but to every pre- cinct in the City. This organization will extend as well to School, Police and Fire departments of the City and in other directions and the old politicians who will direct the anti-char- ter campaign do not expect to lose any tricks. As stated in yesterday’s CALy this cam- paign ostensibly be anti-cbarter, but in reality pro-Dimond. An effort is being made to organize the School Department in opposition to the charter; the Police Department is asserted to be already solidly arraigned against it, and the political influence of the Fire De- partment is expected to ‘be exercised in the same direction. The organization representing the com- bined liquor interests is also understood to be against the charter and in favor of Dimond, and the local Populist vote will of course accompany the Buckley vote. The Hibernia Bank people are already taking a very active interest in the move- ment. Richard J. Tobin and Thomas R. Bannerman are also interested. J. F. and Matt I Sulhvan are at the front of the fight. Patrick Reddy’s services are on tap. John McCarthy, the whole- sale tea and coffze merchant, president of the Occidental Club and friend of Super- visor Dimond, is one of the strong direct~ ing forces, Among others who are ac- tively concerned in this movement which is about to break into the local campaign and become one of its Hottest features are Judge W. @. Burke, Thomas J. Glynn, E. W. McCarthy, A. T. Spotts, J. S. Rey- nolds, James H. O'Brien, W. J. Bryan, Samuel E. Beaver, John Bergez, A. A. Hooper, John Van Bergen, Rudolph Her- rold, Frank D. Bates, J. I, Mahoney and others. Tt is currently said that James H. Barry will support the movement. With these and other forces behind the movement anti-charter literature will be freely distributed, two or three public meetings a night will be held, a thorough house to house canvass will be made, the main municipal departments will be or- ganized as far as possible into anti-charter machines, and Joseph I, Dimond and_the resi of the Buckley-Populist ticket will be kept to the front as the political incarna- tion of the doctrines preached. One of the most active and influential factors in this campaign is John McCar- thy, who was mainly instrumental in se- curing Mr. Dimond’s nomination, Mr. McCarthy is especially opposed to the charter and he is cspecially interested in Mr. Dimond’s election, “I am against the charter and will help defeat it,” said Mr. McCarthy yesterday. “I agree with the views of Mr. Dimond as they were expressed in his letter t> THE CALL to-day, and I have not the slightest doubt in ‘my mind that the charter will be defeated. “Our clmgllgn will have several feat- ures. The first one will be the charter, Then we will present our platform and our nominees to the people, and we are willing to accept the people’s {;ldgment on them. But the charter will be our main fight. “I wish to say what I believe has not been generally said before, and that is that I positively know that the provisions of the charter reiating to the public shools were practically formulated by F. A. Hyde, the recent boss of the Bc{ool Departmerg, who is a leading light in a certain well-known secret society. “Since Mr. Hyde's retirement to private life by the vote of the people two years ago, he has been constantly, covertly and insidiously. intrudine his influence into the affairs of the School Department at every opportunity. He did so openly not long ago when he went unasked and un- welcomed before the Grand Jury and vol- untarily argued for a reduction of teachers’ salaries. ' “In more quiet ways he has constantly tried to make his influence feit to gratify a feeling of revenge against the teachers who, together with the public, made his reappearance in public life impossible. He got in his work on the Board of Free- hoiders and the objectionable sections I charge mainly to F. A. Hyde. They are just like Mr. Hyde’s clever and insidious ways. *‘But the teachers and the intelligent friends of the School Department realize that in the requirement of semi-annual teachers’ examinations there is an oppor- tunity for an appointed Board of Educa- tion to prescribe examinations which in scope and percentage requirements might throw out three-fourths of the teachers in the department. “The most successful and most valuable primary teacher in the department who graduated from a college or normal school ten years ago mizht not on sudden notice make the required percentage in guology, physics or languages and would become with a crowd of others the patronage creature of the board. “The requirement that a teacher must have been educated in the public schools of this State I especially object to. Ifthe finest teacher who ever succeeded in Massachusetts or New York chose to come to California to reside the new charter would pronibit her being hired as a teacher in our public schools, no matter what her experience or special ability might be. “Mr, Dimond and his frienas opposed Mr. Hyde’s school department scheme in the new charter, and from what I actually kuow of the sentiment I can proclaim that the School Devartment will be united against the new charter and in support of Dimond.” A FOR PROTECTION. The German-American Republican Club Will Hold a Meeting To-Night. The usnal meeting of the German- American Republican Club takes place to- night at 413 Bush street. Arrangements will be made for the grand mass-meeting which 1s to be held at the Auditorium next Wednesday night. This meeting promises to be one of the most enthusi- astic that bas ever been held by the Ger- man- American citizens in this City. They seem to be as a unit for the principles of the Republican party and realize that in sound money and protection lies the only foundation for prosperity. The meeting to be heid this evening will be addressed by ex-Governor E.S. Salo- mon and L. Pockwitz. Many of the mu- nicipal candidates will speak. e ot THIRTY-SIXTH DISTRICT. Uniform Drill Corps of the,Thirty- Fifth Republican Asseémbly - District. A rousing meeting was held by the Thirty-sixth Assembly District Repub- lican Club at their hall, corner of Twenty- eighth and Church streets, last night. The hall was crowded and the speakers, George W. Elder, Republican candidate for Superintendent of Streets, Cord Wetjen, Republican nominee for Treas- urer, and John Harney were received with enthusiastic cheering. An important feature of the meeting was the attendance of the drill corps of the Thirty-fifth Assembly District Repub- lican Club. This club is the banner Re- publican district organization with a membership of over 1000 voters, and their drill corps of 100 men is the finest uni- formed polmq‘l,lquad in the City. Their officers are: . F. Northorp, colonel; Buron Kelly, captain; E. A. Grant, first lieutenant; E. H. Herrick, second lien- tenant; McKnight and Ashfelder. ser- geants; Deane and Grant, corporals; Clip- per and Gutze, quartermasters, The uniform of the corps is navy blue and army caps trimmed in gold and they carry 1t flumbeaus. They have their own band and drum corps.

Deane Club, The third regular meeting of the William A. Deane Club was held in Aicazar build- ing last evening and was largely attended. Addresses were made by prominent mem- bers of the club. INVINCIBLES ENTERTAIN, Addressed by Hon. W. G. Hey- burn of Idaho and Mrs. °* Carrie Catt. - Sam Booth and Hs Caifornia Ma'e Quartet Add to the Enjoyment of the Occasion One of the most enthusiastic meetings of the campaign was held atthe Audito- rium last night, under the auspices of the McKjnley Invincibles. The hall was crowded to its fullest capacity, many stand- ing in the aisles and doorways, while the platform was filled with members of both sexes, the ladies having rallied around the person of one of their champions, Mrs, Carrie Chapman Catt. The Hon. A. W. Scott, who acted as chairman, made a few introductory re- marks, and ended by introducing W. B. Hepburn of Idaho. “The Democrats are always trying to fake up some reason why the Republicans should be deprived of the handling of the reins of government,” he said. “Four years ago we were said to need free trade. They dared uot give it to us, but con- tented themselves with tampering with the tariff and injuring the revenue of the country. “This_year we need something free again. It is now free silver. Their mo- notcnous chant is that the tariff is no issue at all. We are happy to differ with them.” After an exhaustive treatment of his subject, Heyburn concluded by stating that the Republican is the only party in favor of bimetallism —the other unnam- able ones being really for silver monomet- allism. If the people only trusted in the party of prosperity McKinley would go into Washington the worthy leader of tge people. > Alter the applause had subsided Sam Booth and his quartet sang the “Repubi- can Tinkers’ Chorus.” They were garbed as tinkers, each man carrying his tools. Mrs. Catt followed with a very pleasing address d made an eloquent plea for equal privileges with man for her sex. BONDSMEN TRIUMPH. Two Exciting Scenes Ending in At- torneys Taking Their Clients to * the City Prison. Louie Lubock, a porter, was arrested ‘Wednesday night for carrying concealed weapons. Yesterday Attorneys Rose and Becksy saw him in the Oity Prison and agreed to procure his release on bonds on payment of §50. Lubock agreed to the proposition and they provided the neces- sary bonds. Lubock asked the two at- torneys to go with him to Oakland and he would pay them the money. The three took a car, and on the way to the ferry Becksy fell asleep. Lubock took advantage of the occasion, as Rose islame, to slip out of the car and run down First street. Rose awoke Becksy and the latter ran after Lubock. He overtook him at Mission street and grabbed him. A strug- gle ensued and soon a crowd gathered and threatened to lynch Becksy. By this time Rose appeared on the scene and told the crowd that Lubock was a fugitive from justice and Becksy was an officer. The crowd had respect for the law, and Becksy and Rose kept hold of Lubock and took him to the City Prison, where he was sur- rendered. Another case of almost a similar kind occurred on Oak street and Van Ness avenue during the police review. Attor- ney Friedlander was one of the bondsmen for Theodore Goodkind, charged with ob- taining money la false pretenses. He was arrested on September 29, and taken before Judge Joachimsen and released on bonds. The case was called on three aifferent occasions. but Goodkind did not appear, and the Jnggn threatened to for- feit his bonds. Friedlander saw him yes- terday afternoon watching the review, and grabbed hold of him. A struggle en- sued and Friedlander drew his revolver. The crowd gathered round them and Po- liceman Hennessy appeared. Friediander explamned the position of affairs and he and Hennessy took Goodkind to the City Prison, where he was surrendered into custody by Friealander. - The Divorce Courts. Augusta Schmidt was yesterday granted s divorce from Charles Schmidt by Juage San- derson. Desertion was the cause. Wan Qui Ying secured a divorce from Cheaung Qui Lun. Judge Troutt made the decree because of the husband’s willful neglect. Anna A. Woodward was given a divorce from James H. Woodward by Judge Troutt because of her husband’s failure 10 provide.

The Fastest and Most Stubborn Ten Rounds Ever Wit- nessed. A GRAND DISPLAY OF SKILL. Wa'ker of Australia Got a Decision ‘Which Should Have Been Given to Charley Turner. George Green of California got a de- cision over Tom Tracey of Australia in a ten-round boxing contest which was de- cided last evening in Woodward's Pavilion under the auspices of the Occidental Ath- letic Club. That it was the greatest boxing contest of a limited number of rounds ever held in this City goes without saying. It was slash and cut from start to finish of each round, and at the end of the tenth the consensus of opinion was that it should have been declared a draw, al- though when the spectators will realize that Green sent his opponent to the floor several times—which must count against tne downed man—possibly the referee, who was Young Mitchell, stated rightly when he decided in favor of Gteen, who won on a very small margin, however. Tracey, the Australian, put up a won- derful fight, and too much credit cannot be given to him. In the first five rounas he literally punched holes in Green’s ribs and stomach. Each time that the native son led with the left Tracey would send in a right over Green’s short ribs that made the recipient of the blow wince. But Green was game and took his medicine like a brick. He was the stronger man of the two, ana when clinched he forced Tracey against the ropes, where several -hot rallies resulted, with Green generally coming out of the scrap a.winner. In the fourth round Tracey had a good lead and it looked as if he would put Green to sleep, but George clinched to avoid punishment and thereby saved himseli irom a knockout. Later on Green had Tracey going, but failed to take advantage of openings which might have landed him a winner. It was, however, a remarkable fight, which will long be remembered by the old-timers who witnessed it as the fastest ten-round contest that has ever taken place in this City. Previous to this event Uharley Tarner (colored) and George Walger of Aus- tralia boxed ten rounds. Walker got the decision, but Turner was certainly en- titlea to it. “Kid”’ Howard of Victoria and Jim Brown (colored) of Oakland boxed six rounds to a draw. The fight between Green and Tracey was as follows: It was 10 o’clock exactly when George Green, 145 pounds, and Tom Tracey made their appearance within the ropes. Both men looked in splendid trim for a hard battle. Green was esquired by Bob Mc- Arthur, Long Agnew and Billy Arm- strong. Tracéy was looked after by Billy Delaney, “Spider” Kelly and Jim Carr. As neither of the contestants could set- tle upon a referee, Young Mitchell, at the suggestion of the frieads of the fighters, was chosen to act. Tracey had a good ad- vantage of Green in the length of reach of arms and height. First round—Very clever flddling. Green led and fell short. More fiddling and drawin; out, when Green led with leit and lande lightly. A clinch followed. Green again landed on stomach, but Tracey came back with two hard leits on Green’s body. Green rushed in and got home twice on Tracey’s face with left. Tracey landed two hard left swings on Greeu's stomach near the ropes. Green then came up again and gave Tracey halfa dozen left-hand warmers on the face. Both fighiers came up hard against the ropes in a clinch and in the breakaway Tracey swung hard on Green’s neck and was hissed. Second round—Green went right after his man, but missed two swings and Tracey viciously fought him to the ropes landing right and left on the wind. Green, however, was not to be denied ana again forced the fighting, landing left and then right on the face. Tracey rushed Green into a corner, but did not do much damage. The men came to the center of the ring and both landed hard punches, Tracey kept up his rushing tactics and Green stopped. Round ended with Green’s mouth bleeding. Third round—Green led for stomach and missed. Green missed with right and Trace: landed’ on Green’s jaw in a clinch. Botl clinched again, fighting with their rights. Green rushes savagely at Tracey and punched the Australian hard in the stomach. Terrific fighting followed and both men slugged like demons and it was give and take without a moment’s rest up to the time of the bell. Tracey fought very wickedly and young Mitch- ell stepped in now apd then, thus giving Green a chance to recuperate. Traccy fel on his knees just before the gong sounded. Both men were dead tired when time was called. Fourth round—Green again went after his man, but Tracey was as anxious as the Califor- nian, and got Green on the ropes in Tracey’s corner and punched furiously. Green got away, however, and landed a right swing on Tracey which knocked him down. Tracey wreu{ad. and Green kept rllying for his o onent's body. He finally got Tracey in reen’s corner, and almost had him out when he wrestled him to the fioor. Tracey stayed on his knees until nine was counted, when he rose. Green got him again, and the round wonndd up with Tracey down and three counted. Fifth round—Tracey came up weak, snd Green punched him hard in the stomach. Green was fresh, and sailed into Tracey with right and left. Lots of clinching followed. In a breakaway Tracey caught Green a hard left hook on the chin, ‘Tracey was wrestled to the ground, and remained down nine seconds, and when he got up-he seemed to have reguined his second wind, and made it hot for Green. It was give and take until the gong sounded, and euribody pronounced the fight the greatest they had ever seen. Sixth round—Tracey cume up rather strong, but Green got in & heavy left on his wind and proceeded to hammer him- all over the ring. Tracey took his punishment gamely, and punched Green viciously whenever he got in close. The men were both tirea, and Tracey got in as close as possible to avoid punishment. After a flerce exchange Tracey fell into Green’s coruer, and on rising tried a right-hand La Blanche swing. The round en with both very weak. Seventh round—Green toed the scratch the fresher man. Green was the first to land a right over Tracy’s heart and then a left hook on Tracey’s jaw. A clinch followed, and in the breakaway Tracey caughtGreen on the mouth, ‘bringing blood, and Green landed most blows, ‘but they did not seem to have much power. Tracey rapidly recovered higjwind and settled down to jab Green hard in the face and mouth. Green was getting weak and Tracey getting back to his old for form.

Holbrook and S. Weber Parker. Mr. Parker Delays an Eastern Trip to Give His Side—Expects to Spend $500,000 Here. 8. Weber Parker of New York, presi- dent of the Hornitos Mining Company of Mariposa County, waslate yesterday after- noon served with a subpena at his room 1 the Palace Hotel, to appear before Justice Groezinger in answer to a suit brought by W. E. Holbrook for $278. Mr. Holbrook has been the agent of Mr. Parker for some time past and claims this amount is owed to Chapman & Bannister, civil engineers, for work. He also claims that Mr. Parker was on the point of leav- ing for the East, and that he also owes the Haas Bros., Davis, Carrigan & Hayden, the Lundy Furniiure Company and Le Conte Bros. Mr. Holbrook served the notice on Mr. Parker, and claims that it was done with difficulty, his finger being caught in the door and considerabiy bruised. Mr, Parker tells a diffeyent story. He eays that he has given Mr. Holbrook $ to pay all the bills, the total of which amounted to but $1300; also, that in re- ard to the particular bill of Chapman & annister, he gave Holbrook $75 to pay for the work, and that it was specified this was all it should cost. “The fact is that Holbrook and I have had a quarrel and he wants two-fifths of the mine. He lately took an English ex- pert toexamine the property,”’ said Mr. Parker, “‘and the expert reported it far richer than anybody had supposed. Hol- brook claimed to me to own the mine, when he didn’t. He has no interest in it. “He thinks now that he will take an advantage of me; but I will not permit it. I will stay. If I owe anybody anything I will pay it, for that is the way I do. When the matter comes up everybody will know all the facts.” ° Mr. Parker says his company will spend about $500,000 in the Hornitos mines. As- sociated with him are several English capitalists. Mr. Parker also says that Mr. Holbrook and three other men came to his room but that Holbrook was not in- jured by him in any way. ———————— INAUGURAL STARTERS.
