THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JANUARY 31, 1897 THE TARPEY STAKE WON BY SCHILLER: Barn;y Schreiber’s Colt| Headed His Field Out With Ease. The Favorite, St. Lee, Finished Third Behind Sweet Faverdale. Clissie B Sauntered In at Odds of 30 tox Sir Wiliiam a Clever Youngster. Hello First at 1o to I It was a real old-time rainstorm that race-goers braved to see the sport at Ingle- side track yesterday. It has been smd that nothing short of death or the *“‘price” will keep an enthusiast at the game in- doors, and a glance at the crowd proved that the originator of the saying was wise in every sense of the word, The regulars were all there with umbrellas, mackin- toshe br t hopes and considerable loose change, which they were relieved of later on. It threatened rain before the first race, and before the afternoon had grown old the liguid visitation from the skies near] obscured a view of the horses running in the different events. The hand of fate marked the favorite for " defeat, and with the exception of Ostler Joe, which at that was not a teeming hot one, one after an- other went to the slaughter-pen. In one or two instances their downfall smacked of the unreal, but mud accom- plishes wonders in distorting form into all sorts of fantastic shapes. The track, which at first was inclined to be dry and cuppy. was soon transformed into a sea of mud and the web-footed horses had it all their own way. The Tarpey selling siake, over a_ mile and a furlong, with a gross value of $13( ure responsinle for the heav The field simmered down to Argentina 97, Semper L x 103, Schiller 9 Rey del Bandidos 98, Sweet Faverdale 97, St. Lee 100, Gallant 100 and Foremost 100 pounds.

The winner t ed up in Sir William, a nicely turned rruthers, | colt, by Fitzjames, which came strong at the finish and downed The Cheat half a length, starting at the fancy odds of 15 to 1. The Cheat was post favorite. H. Martin had the mount on Ostler Joe in the mile handicap, and he appears to be just a pound or so better than H. Brown. The black horse and Salisbury LI occupied the sest of bonor in the betting, each going to the post at-odds of 11 0 5. Salisbury made the runming for balf the distance, whon Ostler Joe took up the cue and in a drive at theend downed Wawona, a 15 to 1 shot, and one of the lightweights | of the company, half a length in 1:46)4. | Morte Fonse, with Sloan up, was a 1air third. 3 The telephone horse Hello was a right warm one in the mile and a half hurdle handicap.

City and County Attorney Creswell has | filed two opinions concerning property in | which the City and County was concerned. Emily end George A. Pope last year led a petition claiming title for upward of thirty years and exclusive possession of a parcel of land on the south line of Sacramento street, 275 feet east of Drumm, fronting on Sacramento street seventy- five feet and running through to Market. The peiition was referred to the City and County Attorney, who has reported that the property does not appear on the offi- cial maps of the City and County as City property, but does appear upon the Asses- sor’s blockbook and is so put down in the list of City property. The tie wasde- rived from the State under the act of March 26, 1851, known as the beach and water lot act, whereby the State leased to the City and County for a term of ninety- one years certain beach and water lots, the title of which was held by the State. Peter Smith brought action against the City, and on March 4, 1851, recovered judg- ment for $45,538 82. He aiso secured judg- ment agamnst the City for $i9,239 on an- other suit, and execution on both judg- mens issued on December 8, 1851 ~ The Sheriff sold the lot, with another lot, to George McDougal. James Beckett and J. R. Maloney for $1750, giviug the Sheriff’s deed. Altbough the period of six montis for redemption had not elapsed the title passed, and Emily A. Pope and George A. Pope claim title under thissale, Attorney Creswel! linds that .the City hrs had no title in the lot since January 6, 1852. | " Concerning the issue raised by Emily T. Pope in a petition requesting that water | io1'66, on Oregon street, be expunged from | the official map. Mr. Creswell reporis that | “whether that strip became delicated to | the uses on the part of the public lor the | requisite number of years is a quesiion of I i ow. ) fact into which I cannot inquire even if directed by the board to do so, because I have no authority to administer oaths in | the examination of witnesses.” | Legislative Committee’s Clerk. | The Committee on Legislation of the Board of Supervisors has appointed John E.

Butler Smith Obliged to Threaten Lees With a Lawsuit to Re- cover a Mortgage. The Coonsy case has reached a stage redolent of spicy developments to come on both sides. In answer to the numer- ous charges made by Captain Lees and his detectives there are hiats that when the defense begins to unload its ammunition some startling surprise will ensue. Not- withstanding the fact that the experts for the prosecution are aware that the attor- neys for the notary bhave in their posses- sion fac-similes of the Crocker blanks of 1896, printed by James H. Barry, they are not sure that this is the only plan to test their skill. For this reason the Fair people have become seriously alarmed at the trena of toe last few days’ developments. The dis- covery of the Barry blanks in its first view looked something very promising; but a day’s deliberation over it somewhat mitigated its importance and they have redoubled their energies in searching for other evidence to use against Cooney. The credit of the discovery of the Barry blanks does not belong to Captuin Lees, the detectives and his assistants, aithough he was content at first to receive all the praise, Attorney R. B. Mitche!l obtained the information through a conversation | with the manager of a printing supply house, on the Oakland ferry some deys | ago, and in turn conveyed the news to Charlie Fair's detectives. Captain Lees finds himself in some hot water on account of numerous deeds and mortgages that have gone into the court within the past week as evidence against Cooney. These deeds were gathered from the four corners of the State to show that Cooney was in the habit of using a notarial cate with his name printed on it. ese instruments are in the custody of Magistrate Carroll Cook as *“‘exnhibits,” and as the case promises to be much lou.er drawn out than at first supposed, some of the owners of the documents are anxious to hiave their property returned. | In one psrticular instance the chief of | detectives much against bis will was obliged to return one of these instruments under threat of legal proceedings. On December 2 a mor nowledged by Cooney ior the purpose of evidence was borrowed from Batler Smith. a real estate agent. The mortzage was loaned on the condition that it should be returned on demand, but it was not until January 2 after numerous demands on the part of §mith that the document was given to the owner to head off an action to replevin it. I loaned the mortgage to Detective Seymour,” said Smith, “after learning that it was to be used in the Fair case. Seymour signed a receipt for the property, promising to return it on demand. Now this mortgage was what we call a live doc~ ument and 1 did not care tc have it out of my custody for any length of time. A few days later I applied for it, but was put off with an excuse that it was a piece of important evidence in a big criminal case iml that it should be kept by Captain Jp to this time I knew nothing of the intention of the Fair hers to prosecute Cooney. The moment [ heard of the notary’s arresi, I saw that the police had been dragged into a case that I supposed was one of civil litigation. I had my opinions about the whole affair and I again demanded my mortgage. There were more excuses and I finally put the matter before an attorney. A week ago Monday morning I called on Captain Lees and talked Dutch to bim. I told him tbat unless my mortgage was returned I would take legal steps to return it. “After hearing this Lees gave me my property and turned around and sub- pensed me as a witness, instructing me to bring the document with me to court, That was a week ago last Wednesday, and 1 have been aancing attendance on the Cooney case since. “In justice to Detective Seymour I will say that he apologized to me. He told me he intended to return the document whenever I desired it, but found it im- possible to keep bis word, for the reason that my property was in the hands of Captain Lees, who iusisted on keep- e it.” The trial of the pencil deeds, which is down on the calendar for hearing before Judge Slack on Tuesday next, will un- doubtedly be postponed a week at least, owing to a delay in the preparation of the ury- lists for this term of court.

SANDEN'S NEW BELT Another of the Numerous [mprovements in This Wonderful Electric Belt Is Given to All Patients Free, Belt 'stronger, more durable Every device known To make his to Science that will make Electricity do and with better cura- better work in curin tive qualities than any disease is emboded i other remedy is Dr. this appliance. Sanden’s aim. THIS IS DR. SANDEN’S LATEST IMPROVEMENT IN HIS WORLD-FAMOUS Electric Belt. It 13 as near perfect as science and money can make it. Thisisa means of curing disease which is equaled by no other treatment in the world. Itis the result of thirty years of close application to one hobby—one glorious desire to in- vent and perfect an appliance which will, without inconvenience, cure bumanity of the serious ilis which afflict it—and that all this study, this experimdnting and self- sacrifice on the part of Dr. Sunden is repaid can be seen from the thousands of grate- iul voices which are raised in grateful thanksgivings to the man who has restored to their owners health and happiness. Nor is thisall. Dr. Sanden’s Electric Belt enjoys to-day the largest sale of all thé remedies in the worid for the cure of nervous and chronic diseases. No other remedy or appliance approaches i’ in point of numbers 1n use nor in its curative effects. Dr. Sanden’s latest and most important improvement is the doubling of the power in the battery chain, making it more than ever superior to all other makes of eleciric appliances in this respect. Dr. Sanden is entirely protected by patents on his various inventions, and no other firm can adopt or use any of the features of his Belt. Second in importance to the increase in power of Dr. Sanden’s battery is his famous regulator—an attachment for making the current mild or strong while the Belt is on the body. With this a patient cau put the belt on when retiring, set the current at just the right power to suit the sensitiveness of the nerves, and he can then go to sleep knowing that while at rest his system is being saturated with the life and vital force born of electricity. He arises in the morning refreshed, bright and vigorous, without any of the biistering or burning of the skin usually caused by electric belts which cannot be controlled. Dr. Sanden’s Electric Belt costs no more than othersof inferior make. Itscurrent is warranted to be felt as soon as the Belt touches the body, and its power is guaran- teed for one year. Ifa Sanden Belt gives out within one year a new one will be given in place of it. The following are extracts from letters just received: “T bave been afflicted with rheumatism for forty-five years, the last three of which period I suffered greatly from nervous debility. Mine was a very agzravating case. After wearlng your Belt | seven months I feel no rheumatic trouble and my nervous trouble is nearly gone I am now 62 vears | of age, and coasider my improvement almost miracuious.” W. H. STAPP, Fouts Springs, Cal. “I was all brokea down with debility. My nerves were completely shattered and I had severe palns in the back. I could ea: nothing without great distress afcerward. 1 had been weak for years | from losses, resulting from early indiscratons. Now, after wearing your Belt, my pains are all gone, appetite good and miy strength resiored. My losses are stopped and I feel stronz and hearty agaln. I have galaed eleven poands in the last month.” JUSEPH HENRICH, 153 Tehama sireet, San Francisco,Cal. A DOCTOR'S ADVICE One of the reasons for the great success of Dr. Sanden’s Electric Belt is the psrsonal attention which Dr. Sanden gives to his patients. Beiore applying the Belt every patient is given a thorough examination, free of charge, to deiermine the nature of the complaint, and during the treatment Dr. Sanden spares no pains to cause a quick and permanent cure. Tis free examination is of great value to the patient, and Dr. Sanden, with his thirty years of medical experience, is qualified to say frankly what the effects of his Belt will be. In no case will a Belt be applied where it cannot do good, as Dr. Sanden bas always dealt with his patients on the principle that one cure is the means of selling twenty more Belts, and he prefers not to sell a Belt rather than sell one where it will do no good. 1f you feel that you need help call on him, and he will tell you frankly whether there is help for you in his Electric Belt.
