LONG ROUTES BUT LESS MONEY. Scanty Inducements to the Owners of Stake-Winning Thoroughbreds. TURFMEN HAVE CAUSE TO COMPL:I Purses for Fixed Events at the Erst- while Popular Seaside Track Cut Down by Its Managers. Turfmen who have anticipatet a profita- ble season on the San Francisco tracks are not turning somersauits in their glee over the announcements made in the In- side stakebook just issued. Nor are disinterested patrons of the turf, who de- sire to see high-class racing at the local tracks for six montbs of the vear, pleased with tbe outlook. In nearly every in- | stance the fixed stake events, which have | done much to spread the fame of this track, have suffered reductions in the size of the purse. In some cases the | igures were cut in twain, and some of the most popular events have been done away with altogether. Whether a desire to reap a larcer per- centage of profit or a belief that the In- { zleside track could be run for a season on the reputation that it has won in the past bas actuated the striking at high-class sport matters not to the turimen. They know they are to send their horses to the post after smaller purses than were ever before cffered for stake evenis at Ingleside. | To the Eastern horseman who contem- { vlates spending the winter months 1 California this means that he need not 0 | | them in icient finding opportunities to start races where the inducementsare s for traus ing take-winners across the mountair dinary selling platers are good enough for the game tere when so feeble a bid is mede for the better anima Not only have the s moneys been reduced, but the distances have been in- ovement were tae amounts for which the horses are to con- increased instead of lowered.

WILLIAM LEE MISSING. Mother Fears He Has Among Thieves. William Lee of 324}4 Broadway, a young His Fallen fellow recently empioyed by the Union Can Company, is missing.

That was the | last time she saw him, but at the factory they say that at 2 o’clock that afternoon, in company with a man named Seabrooke and another named Brady he drew what wages were coming to him and quit work. He also took $13 that his mother had been saving to buy bim a suit of clothes. His mother fears that he has been led ay by Szabrook The boy is only 15, .

The Groom Rignalizes the Event by Sending $1000 to the Hebrew Orphan Asylum, Merrily chimed the wedding bells at i the first imvportant wedding of tne sea- [ son, tnat of Miss Sadie F. Samuels, davghter of Mr. and Mrs. D. Samuels, and Isaac S. Foorman, son of Mr. and Mrs. 8. Foorman. The ceremony that made tsis popular | young coupie one was solemnized last | evening at the residence of the bride's | parents, 1624 Octavia street, in the pres- | ence of 150 invited guests. | Evervtning -hat wealth might com- mand and good taste suggest was utilized | in the elegunt decorations of the home. | Corridor, drawins-rooms, reception ha | dining-room and library were fragrant | and bright with lowers.

How a '‘Too Moral Man” Wooed in Vain a Pretty, Typewriter. Rejeoted, Horsewhipped, Indictad; and Now a Self-Convicted | Oriminal. Lawyer P. B. Glidden appeared in the tnited States District Court yesterday and pleaded guilty of having written an obscene letter to Miss Juanita Ryan. At the same time several witnesses on his behalf swore that they had known him for many years and that he wasa moral man, carrying his ideas of morality so far that he never used tobacco or intoxicating drinks. In fact, in the language of one ot the witnesses, he was ‘‘exceptionally moral—too much so.” Nevertheless the lawyer pleaded guilty to a charge of immorality, thus establish- ing the fact that he bad deceived them or that the offense to which he had pleaded guilty was a violent bursting forth of de- pravity hitherto unsuspected. Lawyer Gliiden’s troubles began about ayeaPago. It was while he was occupy- ing an office in the Daniel Meyer build- ing. In the same building Miss Ryan was employed as a typewriter, and Glid- der recame enamored of her. But she did not and could not love Glidden. He is no: fascinating, being about 40, with sunken eyes, a sallow compiexion and a flving buttress brow overhanging his face, the tower part o which is concealed by a mustache and beard. Miss Ryan is pretty, even for a typewriter, and need not lack for good-looking suitors equaily as moral | as Mr. Glidden. | Glidden’s morality was no proof against | love. Finding himself rejected and de- | spised he began to persecute Miss Ryan. | He wrote letters to her of a character s0 | libelous that the young lady publicly cow- bided him. Then she placed his letters in the hands of tue Postoffice Inspec- tors, and he was arrested and indicted on | four counts for obscenity. | Miss Ryan appeared in court yesterday | attired in deep mourning for the loss of a | relative and wanted to go on the siand to tell what she knew apout Glidden and what shame and annoyance he had caused ber, but the culprit having pleaded guiity and the jury having beeu dismissed Judge de Haven declined to hear her. Then A. E. Buckingham was put on the stand, aud came near proving that his | iriend Glidden was eccentricalmost 1o the verze of insanity. According to his state- ment Glidden was a very studious man. | V For several months he did not have more Lhan seven or eizht people call tosce him. | He always kept the door of his office | iocked and could be heard muttering and mumbling inside. More than once he came into the witness’ office for the loan | of red ink, with which he used to write | letters, interlining them in black ink. Two or three times the witness took let- ters from him and destroyed them because they were foolish. “Was he a man who would treat the reputation of ladies ligh:ly?” asked Law- yer Mahoney. As the defendant had alreedy pleaded guilty of having treated more than lightly the reputation of one lady, the court did not think that the question was relevant, ROWING OVER JOTE MILL GOAL San Quentin’s Engineer and J. C. Wilson Cannot Agree. Cannot Weigh a Foot of Water or a Ton of Coal in the Same Way. An Expert Will Be Called In to Test the Prison’s Supply of Fuel, There have bee: some humorous devel- opments in the commissary department of the San Quentin penitentiary, particularly with reference to the coal used in the jute- mill. A complaint was recently made by the chief engineer that the steam coal fur- nished by J. C. Wilson & Co. was ot com- ing upto the test provided in the contract. The contract specitied that one pound of coal siould evaporate 866 pounds of water, but the engineer said that he found the evaporation less than 7.66. The mat- ter was called to tne attention of the board some weeks ago and they asked the firm to vindicate their claims. Mr. Wilson was incensed that his coal had been libeled, for he was furnishing Incorporative Wail- send, which he saia was the best. So he got Engineer Burness of ihe Palace Hotel, together with two firemen, to make a test vesterday in the presence of the Waiden and prison engineers, In four hours and a half they burned 9122 pounds of coal, according to Mr. Wil- son’s measnrements, but according to the eugineer 300 pounds more were burned. According to Mr. Wilson the test suiowed that his coal evaporated 8.83 pounds of water for each pound of coal but accord- ing to Engineer Young the evaporation was only 7.66. The coal-dealer and the engineer could not agree on the weight afa cubic foot of water, the engineer claiming that it was 62,50 pounds and the coal merchant that it was about 68. As the coal bills of the prison run to about $20,000 a year the discrepancy is an item of considerable interest. Tue mat- ter cannot be settled until some outside expert is called in to decide what was the weight of the water ana the coal. The methods of weighing water at the prison are crude In the extreme. The engineer and firemen of the prison think their measurements were correct and the coual-dealer is just as confident that he is right. Speaking of the matter last night rep- resentatives of the tirm of J. C. Wilson & Co. said the tests were in their favor. The trouble was all because the en- gineer and fireman at the jutemill were not experts at evaporating plain water scientifically, according to James B. Smith of J. C. Wilson & Co., who gave tue firm’s account;oi the trouble after Mr. ilson’s return, **The contract for steam coal,’”” said Mr. | Smith, “'was awarded in June at $530 a ton after tests, in which our co-operative Wallsend coal {from Australia won. After receiving about 700 tons it was ciaimed that our coal was not up to the required standara, and while they have used our coal right along they have re- fused to pay us any money, and about $4000 is due. ~Their objection was found- ed on the report of the chief engineer. The requirement was the evaporation of about eizhit and a half pounds of water to a pound of coal, and when Mr. Wilson went over to-day with a competent en- gineer and fireman to test the coal from the pile, the result was 8.67 pounds, and the engineer was satisfied and blamed | NEW TO-DAY!

When the track was opened iis | projectors started with the intention of fostering the best grade of sport. Liberal purses were offered, and the course soon became popular. It was the intention to add to the purses as the patronage in- creased, and turfmen had rea-on to be- lieve that, Ingleside havin - been placed upon a solid basis and recognized as one of the leading racetracks of the country, the management could this year afford to offer greater attractions to entice the best thoroughbreds ol the East and Middle West across the.Rockies. Instead they find that the track is to be run oa a cheaper plan, in order that the profits diverted into the pockets of its managers may be the more increased. Z The race-going public iikes long-ais- tance contests. 1t the new stakebook anncunced more of these, with purses in- creas-d 1n proportion, it would be hailed with approbation. Instead the short sprints have been lengthened out to di tance events, and the money that would have been sufficient for the ‘shorter races decreased for the loncer one«. Last sea- son there were but few first-class distance horses racing on the California tracks, With the limited inducements, the num- ber 1s likely to bedecreased insiead of aug- mented for 1he coming season, and the few which are campaigned here have the larger share of the stake events at their mercy. 5 Theé opening of Ingleside track twoyears ago was resp msible for the boom to Cali- lfornin racing.

CUSTON-AOUSE CHANGES | Four Supe]fiuous Offices Abol- ished in the Interest of Economy. | Several Salaries Equalized With a Pruning-Knife by the Treas- ury Department. The administration of President Mc- Kinley seems determined to give the people an economical administration, and with that end in view has been lop- ping off superflaous offices and cutting | down salaries in all the custom-houses in the country. The ax fell in S8an Francisco yesterday and chopped out four offices—that of chief clerk of the Custom-house, beld by E. B. | Jerome; two examiners of merchandise |n the anpraiser’'s department, held by Raymer Sharp and J. G. Underwood, and that of clerk and messenger in the Cus- tom-house, fiiled by J. M. Johnson. Mr. Jerome’s salary was cut from $4000 to §3625, the same as is received by the other Deputy Collectors, Mr. Jerome being now a Devuty Collector like the rest of the boys—no better and no worse. The salary was raised in his case some years ago when the office of chief clerk wa- created for nis benetit. This aristocratic distinction has been swept away, together with the increased salary. He still holds the position of special deputy and power | of attorney for the Collpector, an honor without any added salary. Auditor Cope’s salary has been audited and aajusted from §3500 to $3000—a round- number arrangement which the auditor is | bearing with tranquillity. Cushier Hrm- ilton's saiary has been reduced to $2500 from §3000.

A young lady in New York City relates the curious case of her sister who suffered from a sort of nervous dyspepsia—that was what the doc- tor called it. She was despondent low-spirited, inclined to imagine all sorts of things. One thing especially seemed to be in her mind ; that was the idea that abscesses were forming in different parts of her body. The sister who tells the story had found Ripans Tabules a specific for headache, and generally had a supply on hand. One day, more in joke than in earnest, she said to the afflicted one: “Try these: they'll cure you.” Well, she did try them, and strangely enough the Tabules did cure her. The despondency left her. This was nearly a year ago. She took less than a dollar’s worth in all, and has not taken one for over eight months now.
