THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1896. FIGURING UPON THE BIG FIGHT) Billy Jordan Can See But One Man, and His Name Is Fitz. Alex Greggains Says That the Cornishman Has a Hard Contract, It. Is the General Belief That Fitz- simmons Has Many Advantages Over the Sailor. Betting . on ‘the Fitzsimmons and Sharkey fight has commenced in earnest. Yesterday several hundred dollars were wagered on the result. Firzsimmons is @ strong favorite, but it is thought that tbe friends of Sharkey will come to the front pretty strong on the day of the .contest. -Several people interested in manly Sports were seen yesterday, and with few exceptions the general belief was that Fitzsimmons would win. James C. Nealon, the famouns handball- player and all-round athlete, said that if Fitzsimmons is as clever as reports state he should stand an excellent chance ot winning the purse. **Of eourse, if Fitzsimmons adopts the same tactics as Corbett,” said Nealon, *'L look for Sharkey to win, as he is capable of standing rough treatment. Corbett made a mistake in underrating Sharkey and exchanging blow for blow. ‘I 'he sailor, I'think, can whip any man who will try that game. I look to see Fitzsimmons side-step his man and catch his game on the return.”’ Billy Jordan cannot see but one man in the fight. My gracious me, what possible chance has this man Sharkey against that demon puncher,’ remarked Billy, as he took an extra pull from a 50-cent cigar, . which he said was presented to him by a veal'butcher from Petaluma. “Why, you should see him punch the bag on Sunday last. He thinks no more of smashing the bigeest punching-bag on earth with a right-hander than I do of eating the finest vorterhouse steak in the land. So help if he ever lands that big harkey’s jaw, which he is sure 10 do and in very quick order, too, the referee will bave very iittle trouble in deciding who is entitled to the big money sack. Just wait and see if my words don’t come true. 1look to see Sharkey stretched oun his back before the end of the first round or I will be th» meost disappoirted on earth. 1 tell ynu, this fellow immons is a terror, and don’t you get it. 1 like Sharkey, but I'm afraid Tom has taken on a terrible contract this ime. Ifit wasany other man than Fitz- simmons the sailor was to meet then I would have sowe doubts about the result. This fellow Fitzsimmons can whip any | man on earth.” D nch, who is manager and backer is as confident in the success d as a man could be. 1ey all think that.Fitzsimmons has a snap,” said Lynch, “but they will ve good reason to think differently after contest is over. Every match that has enzagad in was a foregone on as to result with the prophets. om will not be in it,” was the talk of those wise men who have been guessing wrong ever since Sharkey commenced . fighting. He was looked upon as a good chopping-dlock ior Corbett and Choynski, but he fooled them all, and he will fool Fiizsimmons just as sure as you live be- 1gre they box many rounds. At the pre- vailing odds I will take considerable of - the money wagered on Fitzsimmons.” Alexander Gregzains said that he was puzzled and could not venture an opinion. “A whole lot of these fellows who pre- tend to know it all may get badly fooled in Sharkey.” remarked Greggains. I am aware that Fitzsimmons is a hard man to whip, but I think he will find that Sharkey is the hardest game he has ever _tackled. Unless Fizsimmons can land on the sailo:’s jaw, which vulnerable point Sharkey will keep well protected, I have my doubts of Fitz being able to knock .out his man. The only thing I am afraid of is an uppercut. You see Corbett gave Tom an awful punch in the eye, and if Fitz can land another such biow on Tom’s chin, whky it _will be all over but the shouting. Possibly Sharkey may find a weak spot in Bob’s body whils the latter is prospecting for the sailor's jaw. It's no soft snap for Fitzsimmons by any means.” James Markland says that it will be all over the first good punch that Sharkey .. gets in a2ny part of the face. * Phil Kyan, of handball fame has an idea that Sharkey will take his medicine .and will be on deck fighting like an Indian near the end of the tenth round. Danny Needbam says that Bharkey will bore holes in the Cornishman’s stomach large enough to stick your fist into before three rounds are fought. John Ferguson is of the opinion that Sharkey will surprise the talent. “Tnis fellow Sharkey,” said Ferguson, “is as strong as a buil, and although he may not be a polished fighter, he has a style-of his own that will puzzle any man. Tney say he can’t hit; but you will tnd that he bits hard and strong enough to put most fighters to sieep. It would not surprise me a bit to hear of Firzsimmons being knocked ont.”” Coming Matches. Charles Rochette will meet Harry Butler of the Olympic Club at catch weights, and Jack Bteizner will meet Tom Johnson of Marysville next Monday eveniug before the Ryan-Tracy fight, at the Golden West . Club. The preliminary bouts will be ten rounds each. e FUNDS FOR OUBANG. © .Samuel Cash and J. H. Green De- nounced as Frauds. . Chief Crowley received a communica- tion yesterday from Gonzalo de Quesada, secretary of the Cuban delezation, New ° Xork, inclosing & clipping from the Ex- **aminer stating that Samuel Cash and J. H. Green were in San Francisco collecting iunds to help the Cuban insurgents :n -, their struggle for independence. -Secretary Quesada said that Cash and Green were not known to the Caban dele- pation, that they had not remitted any money and that they were frauds and should be expcsed. . . Underwriters Hold a Banquet. The members of the San Francisco Life Un- derwriters' Association, comprising largely the managers of various life insurance com- pénies baving their headquarters in this City, held their annual banquet at the California Hotei last night.

[N AN MUSIC WERE IN PLENTY Catholic Ladies’ Aid Society Entertainment a Success. Amateur Vaudeville Perform- ance Upon a Very Ex- tensive Scale. After a Long Minstrel Olio, Which Beat the Record fir Eancores, Came Oth:r Features. The amateur vaudeville performance in the Auditorium last evening, nnder the management of the Catholic Ladies’ Aid Society, was a great success in every re- spect. The house was filled and the en- it was full of variety, good music, amusing “gags,” minstrelsy, fncy dancing and so on. The funds of the Catholic Ladies’ | Aid Society must have been largely in- | creased. The first part was t e per-| formance of the Olympic Club Society Minstrels. When the curtain went up there was a | small army of gayly-clad personages ar- ranged in. tiers. largely .and planningto bring forth tears—of laughter. In front direction of M. Fleishmann. The min- strelsy was under the management of G. H. P. Taylor dr., Alex Rosborough acting as stage director, and Charles J. Morelas interlocutor The black-corked artists were Dave Finnie, Jack Cathcart, Bobby Mitchetl, Tim Kreling, Charhie Cathcart and Billy Hynes. The others, who made up a large chorus, were dressed in white, with red trimmings, and looked very gay. The performance was hardly under way when ‘‘gags”’ concerning the airship be- gan to fly about. The minstrelsy part was long and it was unanimonsly in- dorsed, everybody getiing an encore, and some also being lucky enough to carry off bouquets. The singers were: A. Sugden, W. W. Finnie, Alex Rosborough. B. L. Tarbox, Jack Cathcart, Frank Coffin, 8. E. Tucker, Bob Mitchell, D. A. Finnie, Charles Cathcart and Billy Hynes and the Press Club quartet. The latter sang with excellent effect, “Sweet Pickaninny” and “We Are March- ing.” mejoz? sdnll "hy 300 Rand: ‘One of tha “joshes’ in the animated part referred to couid not get adivorce “because there was 1o ground.” i The second part was remarkably varied and enjoyable. Miss Maude Fay and the sang the “Spioning Chorus” and aria from Wagner’s “'Flying Dutchman,” un- der the leadership of Baroness von Meyerinck, accompanied by Miss Virginia Vassault. Four little girls—Daisy Roche, Isabe!le Miller, Nellie Sullivan and Grace Shean— under the direction of the Misses Sheau, danced a Hungarian ballet; George Green | and Jaek Sexdemann boxe. three rounds; Lavater’s dog orchestra from the Orpheum performed, and finaliy the farce of “Mv Uncle's Will” was played by Richard W. Hoteling as Florence Marigold, Alired McKennon as Colonel Barker and Charles F. Arper as Charles Cashmore. The audience seemed to be as eager to get repetitions in the second part of the entertainment as during the first part, so the performance was extended much be- yond the usual limit and was not over until midnight. Take it altogether, the performance was all right. SURGEON-GENERAL WYMAN The Chief of the United States Marine Hospital Service Here on a Tour of Inspection. Dr. Walter Wyman of Washington, D. C., surgeon-general of the’ Uuited States Marine Hospital Service, was among the arrivals here yesterday. He came by way of the City of Mexico. He was a delegate from the Unitéd States to the Pan-American Medical Association meeting in that city. Distinguished med- ical men from all parts of Canada, the United States, Central and South Ameri- ca, as well as Mexico, were present. Since the meetin: Dr. Wyman came leisurely north. He inspected the United States Marine Hospital at San Diego and then came on here. The surgeon-general is now on his annual tour of inspection. He will, of course, examine into the hos- pital service here. The doctor has not been able to et here now for two years, consequently he will feel more like taking an abundance of time than if he had been able i0 come each year. Considerabie inierest attaches to the surgeon-general's visit. While here, for a part of Lne time at least, he will be the euest of Dr. John M. Godirey of the United States Marine Hospital. It will be remembered that some time since Sur- geon-General Wyman ordered Dr. John Hamilton of the hospital at Chicago to change places with Dr. Godfrey here. Hamilton refused to change and conse- a:x)enlly bad to resign. It is said that Dr. dfrey will remain here till about March l and will then be transferred to the East. tertainment fully justified the crowd, for | of the stage was an orchestra under the | The first part closed with a *“drum- | the ot of the man in the airship, who | Girls' High School Alumn® Glee Club | THE LETTERS WERE NONE OF HIS {Judge Hastings Renounced Three Hundred Keller Epistles. | Another Phase of the Marriage- Claim Cese Comes Up Te-Day. | The Claimant Says the Juige and She Had a Son Whom She Herself Baptizad. Further argument in the remarkable contest of Mary Keller, alias Mary Viola | Hastings, for some of the wealh of the late Judge 8. Clinton Hastings wiil take | place in the Superior Court to-day. As the case goeson it promises to become very interesting. The firm of Delmas & Shortridge is attempting to compel Mrs. Keller to produce for iuspection the 300 letters they allege to be in possession of the claimant. There were many interesting points in the woman’s testimony, taken thus far by deposition. Among other things she | swore that Judge Hastings had one child, by her, a son, who died at the age of 4 vears. “We called him Joe,” she said, “and I had to move often to keep Bob Hastings from stealing the child. I never | stayed but a day or twoin one boarding- house on that account.”” The testimony was to the effect that the | reputed father never saw the child but once, and that was for only a few minutes | in a park in the City, though she said he | loved the child dearly. She alleges that | the Judge stated that as he hat given his .own children all they desired, he would give her and their child the balance. A strange point of the testimony relates to the baptism of her child. She said it was about to die one time and she baptized it herseifin the absence of a priest, feeling | that such a ceremony was in every way | efficacious. The following leiter from Judee Hast- ings to the lady is the only one that has yet come to light: SAN FrRANCISCO, Nov. 2, 1884, Your letters of the 28th of have been this moment received by me, delivery having been delayed from your sending them to Lakeport. I sup- pose you have sent me 300 letters in the last five years, in which you have claimed a warm devotion of a personal atinchment of the most | fuisome sort, and which I never responded to, | on account of my beli:ving you to Ee & crenk, | or, as your friend Judge Lake informs me, an adventuress. Inow, for reasons not necessary to icention, reply to yourlast twoand all other letters. We huve never promised marriage to | each other, and further, I have never agreed 0 marry you or to do acts publicly or vate.y which would justify any such con sion. 8. CLINTON HASTINGS, 4, | POINT LOBOS AVENUE. | An Effort to Be Made to Take It From the Park Jurisdiction. A meeting of the Point Lobos Improve- | ment Club was held on Fifth avenue last | evening. The sentiment was expressed |by E. P.Trov and other speakers that the avenue and many of the intersecting streets should be improved, sidewalked and placed in & passable condition. A committee of three was appointed to | wait on the Park Commissionersand ask | that such work be done. The committee is composed of E. P. Troy, P. F.lippini and G. R. Fletcher. In the discussion mention was meade of the pecu'iar fact that Point Lobos avenue is still under the jurisdiction of the Park | Commissioners. The Legiclature in 1877 | passed an act placing the street under the | control of the State commission, and | hence it was contended that the Board of | Superyisors could not direct improve- ments until that law was repealed, The sentiment of the meeting was in favor of legislative action to repeai the old | law, as reasons no longer existed for per- mitting the Park Commissioners to exer- cise jurisdiction in the premises. The | question will be considered at a meeting |of all the improvement clubs. On the | evening of December 2 the Association of | Improyement Clubs and the members of the San Francisco delegation to the Legis- | lature will hold a conference. The club appointed Messrs. Troy and Sievres delegates to the charter conven- tion. Mr. Defer introduced a resolution re- questing that Mayor-elect Phelan in nam- ing 100 men to frame a charter should recognize the Point Lobos Improvement Club. The resolution was adopted. 1f the scheme of improvement for Point Lobos avenue which many of the progres- sive mémuers commend be executed, the avenue will be bituminized and connected with the boulevard system so that there will be a tine arive along Post street to Van Ness avenue. —————————— Cruelty to Children. Joseph Arata and his wife Teresa, living at13 Bannan place, off Green street, were arrested last night by Officers Holbrook and McMurray of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and taken to the City Prison, along with four of their children. Two of the elder children escaped. The house was in a filthy condition and the children were in keeping with their surroundings. The parents were boozed for cruelty to children and the chil- dref for a public institution. . DANCED R THE B WHIT O The Emporium Board of Managers as Enter- tainers. How the Parrott Building Looked Last Evening in Festive Array. Tables Laid in ‘the Gril'room {o Acc:mmodate Nine Hundred Gu>sts. The Emporium was closed to the public last evening, and open to its 900 people, who enjoyed several hoursrecreation from business. The great building was aglow from dome to basement with hundreds of elec- tric lights, making a display of unsur- passed splendor. It was the occasion of a reception given by the managers to their employes. The floor under the dome was waxed and they danced to the sirains of the Emporium orchestra, under the leader- ship of Professor John Marquardt, who kindly donated the services of himself and musicians to theentertainment of the guests. Down in the restaurant and grill- rooms in the basement the tables were set for 1000 people, a banqueting hall such as has never been seen in this City, The evening’s enjoyment began with speeches by President A. Fiest and Gen- eral Manager W. D. Harper of the Em- porium Company. Both gentlemen wel- comed the employes to the reception prepared for them and trusted tha: the same unity and good fellowship that joined them together there would prevail throughout the term of their employment with the firm. During the evening several entertaining vocal selections were given by the Knicker- bocker Quartet. At 1l o’clock the grillroom doors were opened and the great company trooped down sto the banquet, where they did ample justice to the good things set be- fore them. Those in charge of ihe affair were: Reception committee—J. Jackson, chairman; R. Boroughs, William John, E. Keitner, H. Asche, C. F. Peterson, W. Crandall,’ W. E. Joslyn, C. H. Lochmeyer, S.

It is the intention of the board of man- agers to hold receptions from time to time. ¥ormal Opening, Music, Decorations, Scenes in Ice and Vast Throng of Visitors. Music by the Park band, fishes con- gealed in solid blocks of clear ice, a bril- liant array of electric lights, some beauti- ful decorations and a vast throng of admiring spectators were features of the formal opening of the new Powell-street market iast night. In preparations for the event there was gzood-natured rivalry between the vendors of produce in that market-place, and many of the displays were rendered aittractive. The market last nght was not open for tratfic, but the alluring display of Thanksgiving articles will tempt buyers to-day. Inone block of ice there was a (ishing-boat, to which was attached a string of fish. The scene caught the notice of the little folk. —_———— Arrested for Stealing Shoes. Two men giving the names of George Miller and Thomas Pinkham, and alleging that they were miners just come to tawn. were arrested yesterday afternoon’ by Officer Frank Greenan and booked at the Southern Police Station on a charge of having stolen a large box of shoes from a store at 535 Muarket street. The men were apprehended in the act of trying (o sell some of the shoes from the box they had se- creted at 547 Howard streef, where it had pre- viously been discovered by the agent for the house, and reported to the police.
