4 ) ( THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MAY 29, 1897. AT TROTTERS , THY CONCLUSIOS Mamie K Easily Wins the Yearling Race at Sacramento. Two-Forty Class Event Goes to the Hot Favorite Prince. Heartsease and Lo Lo Fall In a €print and Jockey Holmes Is Injured. SACRAMENTO, CAL, May 23.—The trotling and pacizg events to-day failed to draw as large a crowd as was pre-ent at the track yesterday; still, the grand stand held a fair sprinking of the gentler sex and the betting ring was crowded with men, none of whom were placing large amounts. The day was cool and the track rather heavy, having been deeply har- rowed to accommodate the runpers yes. terday. The first race, a yearling trot, was s for Mamie K, who took the lead oth beats, leaving the other infants g out far in the rear. For the 2:40 class, trot, Prince was a hot vorite, and although rst heat to Candy Joe he took the next ree siraight, with the sweel one secoud nd Hobo third. Ledgett, after a few breaks, got the run- off to a fair start in the thirl event. Heartseass went to the front and held that position to the midale of the turn, where she fell, Lo Lo following suit. Mol- lie R then came to the front and won by three lengths, with Perhaps second and Modestia third. Holmes, the rider of Heartsease, got a bad tumble. One of his 1 and his collar Roulier, who was up on Lo Lo, got jarred and had 2 slight cut on his scaip. The last race, a pace, for three-year-olds, was taken by Telgphone in one-two- e ord witno Los Angeles second. Tule Rose was distanced in the third heat. a mile and repeat, stake.

W HAVEN, Covy., May 28.—In- | terest among tne colleze men and athletes | generally is centered upon to-morrow’s | race on Lake Saltonsiall between the | crews of the Uniyersity of Wisconsin and Yale. The former crew bas been in training on the lake for the past fortnight, and it is said that the prospects in the approache contest are brighter for the Western men than has previously been the case; \Ithough, owing to the fuct that Wiscon- sin was unable to spare all her best rowers .:l ;zm season, Yale is the favorite by long odds. A large number of visitors, including students and alumni, have arrived from neighboring cities as well as from the Central West. The Wisconsin crew will probably be made up as follows; Bow, Alexandar; 2, Olson; 3. Chamberlain; 4 Pritzhiff; 5, Lake; 6, Austin; 7, Cros stroke, Seymour; cockswain, Crandalil. The crew is accompanied by Substitutes Sutherland and Anderson, Coach O'Dea and Manager Waite. S o IBR Iiace Meeting for Chico.

His Suggestion That B:xing Contests Be Limited to Oze a Month Reported o1 Adversely. The Health and Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors administered a deli- cately worded but most pointed rebuke to Supervisor Clinton yesterday in reference to the resolution of the representative of the Eleventh Ward limiting the number of boxing contests to one a month. The resolution was presented at the last meeting of the board and referred to the Health and Police Commitiee. Chairman Delaney stated that he thought it time that Supervisors kept their hands out of mat- ters with which they had no concern and instructed Clerk Russell to incorporate the following in the report of the com- mittee: | _Your committee questions the policy of | members of the board endeavoring to interfere With the judgmenit of the comm.tiees of tnis board on applications referred which may | be properly and judiciously granted, especially when they are ‘the means by whicn the treas- ury is benecfited and the fund for the aid of the unemployed increased. These permits are the meaus or dong greai good to the unfor- tungte and providing means for a charitable and laudable purpose which at present could | hardiy be 1aised in any otber manner. Without any desire to offend the members who are purticularly anxious to determine the policy aud actions of the committees of this board, it does rppear as if the members could, from the natuie of the duties imposed upon all commitiees, be more advantageously em- ployed in atiending to the duties devolving upon their respective committees. In this wey good work cau_be accomplished and the recommendations left to the committees which, aiter examination, are better qualifiea to pass upon the rame than a member whose knowledge of the subject is limited by his im- pressiovs. Your committee therefore reports adversely to the passage of toe resoiution and recom- mends that it be indefinitely postponed. e Two Months’ Vacation for Lawyers. Judges ana lawyers will take & vacation of two months.” At a meeting of the Judges of the Superior Court yesterday:it was ordered, for ‘be convenience of the members of the bar, that except in cases of urgency, or by con- sent of parties, no civil causes sball be tried | between the 14th day of June and the 14tn any of August. 1837. It wus furiher ordered that the foregoing shall in' no way apply to the criminal departments of the Superior Court. Notwithstanding this order some of the Judges of tve civii departments of the Superior Court wiil be in attendance during the months designnted as vacation time, 8o Lhe wheeis of Litigation will not be blocked. Trials will go on as nsual in several departments. but law- yers who wish to prolong their holiday may ot be compelled to appear in court during the term of the recess ordered yesterday. 10 OREGON FOR NEXT T0NOTHING Only $10 First Class by Rail, Including Berth, to Portland. AND IT MAY GO STILL LOWER. Steamers Will Charge $6 and Bcard Passengers Free. RATES TO THE SOUND MUST ALSO FALL Rumors That the Railroad Wil Make I's Excursioa Charge a Regular Fare. Possenger rates between here and Port- land were cut to pieces yesterday, but low as they are no one can yet say the end has been reached. You can now go to Port- land by rail, first class, for $10, or second class §5. By the steamers of the O. R. and N. Compeny the first and second class rates are $6 and $3, respectively. The steamer transportation includes board and the railway fare includesa sleeping berth. Readers of TuE CaLL were told of the hatchets that were playing in the hands of the rival companies a few daysago. It was dollars to dimes that they would enter on a career of massacre. The Southern Pucific first made a reduction, and then the steamship company followed. Assistant Passenger Agent Judah of the Southern Pacific yesterday said of the fight: *‘On December 28 last we voluntarily raised our rates to $21 first ciass and §14 second. As summer advanced the sea be- came smooth and weather pleasant, so that travel went to the steamer line. In fact we were not getiing our share of it, so we reduced our rates. On May 23 from Sun Francisco and on May 27 from Port- land we carried passengers for $19 and $12 respectively. “The O. R.and N. Company then re- duced its fares. We then announced that on Mav 28, by the excursion leaving here for Portland and June 1 from Fortland, we wovuld reauce our rates to $15and $10. As we have been officially notified that the O. R. and N. rates have been to- day cut to $6 and $3 we have reduced our rates to $10 and §5. The O. R. and N. has not made any changes yet in the sound rate. Mr. Goodall is sick. They will un- doubtedly be compelled to cut the sound rates.”’ The low railroad rates will go into effect June 2 from Francisco and June 1 from Portland, and will be applicable every five days therealter by the regular excur- sion. The following will show how the cutting by rail applies to the Portland, Puget Sound amft’lclonn business: Whole. To Portland. {is smn Rty o0 To Tacoms. A_}:‘l 5‘::7; ap, To Port Townsend... {33 Ga% 16 30 To Victorla.. e ey On these rates $10 more on each full-rate ticket and $5 on each half-rate ticket will be collectea, but this extra amount will be returned as & rebate on arriving at the end of the journey. The same rate is charzed from Sacramento as from here. The tickets must be used for the particular train specified and they apply only to the destination named. The business of the Southern Pacific to Victoria and Port Townsend irom Tacoma will be by the steamer City of Kingston, owned by the Puget Sound and Alaska Steamship Com- pany. It'is not at all unlikely tbat there m be more rate-cutting. Mr. Judah says it is shameful, but there is an implication that it may be worse. For a day or two there has been a murmur that if the Oregon Kailway and Navigation Company continued to cut the Southern Pacific would haul off its periodic excursion by which it now offers its reduced rates and turn loose the tratfic on its regular daily trains at tne reduced quoted rate. The Southern Pacific, however, will not yet commit itself on this. KENNEDY DECLARED GUILTY. He Will Be Sentenced To-Day for Slap- ping Little Baby Backmaster. A. L. Kennedy, who has been on trial before Judge Campbell for cruelty to Baby Backmaster, was pronounced guilty yes- terday morning. 3 In accordance with the wish of the court the prosecution produced medical testimony to show that such bruises as were on the child’s face could only have been the result of one or more violent blows, Drs. E. G. Frisbie and D. A. Hodgett held the view that a mild correction, such as Kennedy claimed he had inflicted, wouul not have caused discoloraiion of the cheeks. Kennedy called Dr. A. H. Campbell for the defense. This physiciam, formerly of the children’s ward in tne City and County Hospi ul, held that he couid not detect the marks of severe punishment on the child, the discoloration being but skin- deep, and could have been caused by gentle taps administered repeatedly. A number of witnesses testitied as to Kennedy’s kindly disposition and for- bearance witn children, and as to lhe‘fond reputation of the school he conducted. The aefendant argued his own case, making ‘& sirong appeal for clemency. He confessed to having slapped the baby, but with no intent to karm 1t. He told of bis own life as a cLi.d and how his parents bad frequently corrected him. In after years he realized the value of well-merited chastisement and he believed he would be failing in his duty if he did not impose it when necessary, even if it lacerated his own heart in so doing. Judge Campbell, in passing judgment, said there was no doubt in his mind that Kennedy meant no harm when he pun- ished tne child, but, still, he had shown criminal negligence in going beyond the proper bounds of chastisement. The court wiil pase sentence this morn- ing. - Two Young Offenders. Thomas Meehanand Eugene Way, aged about 16 years, appeared in Judge Dunne’s court vesterday charged with petty larceny for steat- ing some barrels worth $5. They pleaded guilty, and the record disclosed the fact that this {s their second offense. Senteiice will be pronounced on June 2. COLONEL CURRIER HAS RESIGNED Profound Disturbance in the Division Staff, / N. G C Talk That Lieutenant-Colonel H. P. Bush May B: Promoted to Chie of Staff Rumor That Ssveral Resignations Will Foliow if the M jor.G:n- eral Appeints Bu:h. Colonel J. C. Currier has resigned his position as adjutant-general of the divis- jon, N. G. C. Major-General James in approving the resignation said that the approval wasgiven at the personal request of Colonel Currier. The general expressed his regret at the loss of the services of so valuable an officer to himself personally as well as to th- State of California. Yesterday Colonel Currier was advised of the acceptance of the resigna‘ion. When asked if a recent appointment'to the division staff had any influence in Colonel J. C, Currier. prompting bis resignation he said: “I was not influenced in my course by any appointment made or promotion dis- cussed. My relations with General James have been most cordial and agreeable. I found that I could not longer attend to the duties of the position without neylect- ing private interests which at this time demand my individual attention.” There is gossip in the National Guard organizations to the effect that Lieuten- ant-Celonel H. P. Bush, now serving as judge-advocate of the division, will be promoted chief of staff to fill the vacancy caused by Colonel Currier's resignation. Rumor is rife of other resignations. It is whispered that Colonel Sumner, inspector. and Colonel D. E. Miles, signal officer, will resign in the event of Coionel Bush’s promotion to the position of adjutant- general. Their example may be followed by other officers. A prominent officer commenting on the contemplated changes remarked ‘There is no objection to Colonel Bush as a man ora citizen. No one entertains any preju- dice toward him, but there is a feeling that be is lacking in miliiary knowledge and experiencs. It was through his in- fluence in a measure that division head- quarters were established in tae Baldwin Hotel, The headquariers should not be in a hotel. It looks too much.like using the National Guard to bring business to the house. When Governor Budd ap- pointed Warfield brigadier-general he knew that he was appointing a hotel man ana drigade headquarters might be estab- lixhed at the house managed by General Warfield, but it does not follow that the ma- jor-general should aiso select a hotel for division headquarters. The allowance for division headquarters may be larger than I think it is, but it is my impression that it is not sufficient to pay one half the ex- pense of the two rooms on the second floor of the Baldwin.” The officers of General James' staff aside from those mentloned in the fore- going paragraphs ure: Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas M. Cluff, com- mssary. Licuienant-Colonel William Edwards, ord- nance officer. Colonel George Stone, engineer. Colonel John Galiwey. surgeon. Lieutenant-Colonel F. 8. Pott, paymaster. Lieutenan:-Coionel Thomas A. Nevney, in- spector of rifie practice. Major G. E. Wethern, A, D. C. The gossip goes that several of the: ofticers’ will soon teader their resigna tions. It is well known that at least three have said in private conversation that they would resign if Colonel Bush was appointed chief of staff. TO RECEIVE BRYAN.

Censured for Delaying the New Hall. “THE CALL'S” POSITION INDORSED. No Valid Reasoa for the Present Dilatory Tactics Is Found. 0SCAR LEWIS (PPOSED FOR SUPERINTENDENT. It Is Charged That Municipal Con- tractors Are Oppcsed to Uaion Lator on the N w Hall. Three representative labor organizations met last night and opposed the appoint- ment of O car Lewis as supérintendent of the new Postoffice building. They also pat them-elves on record as decisively op- posed to the dilatory policy of Bateman Brothers and others responsible for the cessation of work on the new City Hall. The oreanizations that thus fell in line with THE CALL on the question of the mu- nicipal building and gave their own views on the Federal superintendencyr were the 8an ¥'rancisco Labor Council, the Distrist Carpenters’ Union and the Building Trades Council. The Building Trades Council sent dele- gates to confer with the Lator Council committee and with them jointly oppose the appointment of Oscar Lewis as superintendent of the new Postoffice bullding. The committee from the District Car- penters’ and Joiners’ Urion consists of the following: J. Connell, J. McCartney and A. Nichol. Those from the Building Trades’ Council are: J. E. McDougal, A. Lemmons, Martin Hughes, J. W. R Jobn Plugard, M. Schwariz and P. Han- non. The committeemen from the Labor Council are: W. Macarthur, J. Walters, Ed Rosenberg, 8. L. Collins, William Dove and President J. Hill. This body will take action asa joint committee representing the labor eie- ments of the City, and when its plan of of action has received the indorsements of the several bodies which the members rep- resent the finding will be forwarded to President McKinley and Congre:sman Loud protesting against Lewis’ appoint- ment. A committee, consisting of President J. Hill, W. Macarthur, 8. L. Robbins, W. C. Ackerman and J. Walters, were appointed to confer with the committee appointed by the Associated Improvement Clubs on municipal ownership of gas and water. The council instructed Secretary Rosen- berg to communicate the council’s oppo- sition to the Dingley tariff on tobacco. 8. L. Robbins, delegate from the Typo- graphical Union, claimed the privilege of tue floor to speak on the delav of the con- tractors having the building of the new Temple of Justice. He said, *'The reason, #s I am informed, that the contractors for the new Temvple of Justice have de- layed the building is that there are none but scab workmen employed. 1 under- stand that Bateman Bros. have stated that they would not employ union hands on the building. “THE CALL has taken up the question of delay and the Supervisors are following suit. Therefore it is the duty of this council to as<ist THE CALL and force those contractors to go ahead with the work. By doing this every business man on the line of Kearny street will thank us. “We must land heavily on the backs of those ducks 1o make them feel our weight. By forcing them to go ahead it will give 200 or 300 men work. The money is lying in the City treasury ready to be paid out as the work progresses, vet men are idle by the treachery of those men.”” Those remarks were indorsed by the council, and on motion of W. Macarthur, the subjsct was referred to the executive committee for action. A commuaication was received from George J. Crosby and Harry A. Knox, members of the A. R. U. No. 345, asking for the co-operation of the council on the Worden matter. To explain what was required of the council on this snbject two delegates were resent, who stuied that they had been informed that Governor Budd had stated that he would not interlere with the man- date of the law in Worden’s case, but that he would give a delegation a hearing. In order to have a good case to lay before the Governor the delegates stated that they would go fortified with affidavits showing that Worden did not bave a fair trial and that his witnesses had been refused a hearing in court. All they wanted in this instance was funds to prepare those sffidavits. On mo- tion $15 was vo! for thut purpose. The report of the executive committee on Hawaiian emigration submitted last night to the council was an able review of the situation. - It quoted the severe penal labor laws in force in the islands, as well as the stringent debtlaws obtaining there. The committee found that under these laws the American who went to labor there would be liable to come into prac- tical slavery, not beinz free to leave the islands at any time he desired. This would be more likely, seeing that the pro- posed co-operative sysiem would neces- sarily place the American in aebt for many months, thereby, under the nd laws, prohibi s departure. Commissioner Fitzgeraid had explained to the committee that he believed the Provisional Government would suspend its penal labor laws in favor of the American laborer; otherwise he would not recommend any immigration. He said he would learn definitely regarding the matter from the Hawaiian Govern- ment. In the absence of any definite in- formation, however, the commiitee from the labor council empnatically warned all workmen against emigratine to the Ha- waiian [slands. The Head Nurse Blamed.
