Speclal Dispatch to THE CALL LONDON, Oct. pers pr. —All the morning va- se the riding of Tod Sloan, the | The Standard says: he lost the race on Wednesday because he stopped riding, If | he hada persevered two seconds more St. Cloud would have won.” The Daily Mail say “It is useless to deride the style and methods of a jockey who keeps winning. When Sloan leaves our shores it will be umid a chorus of re- grets from the bookmakers. Tue discrim- ination he used in choosing his times for winning and loosing might hava been in- | spired by a desire to make them as rich | as himseli.”’ | The Daily Telegraph says: “Sloan measures the winning post with an ac- | curacy which skill and knowledge of pace alone can supply. Sandia ran straight | as an arrow to-day. This confirms the | opinion that Comfrey would not beat him again at the same weights.” The Sporting Life says: ‘‘All unpreju- | diced observers must allow that Sloan is | an artist in his own line. Furthermore, he made friends by his cheery and plucky way of accepting defeat.”” — - WINNERS 1) EAST. Typhoon II Beaten by Cassette on the Morris Park Track.

Under Sheriff Mansfield Sttll In Danger From the Wound In- fiicted by Flanne'ly. Specal Dispatch 10 THE CALL. REDWOOD CITY, Oct. 30.—J. H. Mans- field, accompanied by his wife, leit here !on the 6:20 train this evening for San | Francisco, where t:e former will consult a surgeon respecting the injury to his arm. This morning he funeral of Sheriff McEvoy, but was unable 0 go to the cemetery for the reason that his arm began to trouble bhim. Rather than take ary chances it was thought best to engage expert atiendance. The remains of W. P. McEvoy, the mur- dered Sherift of San Mateo County, were carried 10 their last resting-place to-day. The funera!, which took place from the Catholic church, was the largest in the history of the county. McEvoy, or “Puil,” as he was popularly known, was in his lifetime one of the most popular young men in the county. People came for miles to pay their respectsand witnes- the last sa0 rites before his form was hid- den from sight forever. Allday yesterday throngs congregated at the late Bheriff's quarters in the jail, where the body lay, to get one last lock at the beloved face. It was indeed pitifal to see old men and women weeping over his casket—men and women who could not have shown more sorrow had he been of their own blood. Members of the local parlor of Native Sons, the Foresters, Red Men and Fire Department and ot the Order of Elks of San Francisco, formed in procession this | morning and marched with the body 10 | Mount Carmel Chufch, where services were held at 10 o'clock. The altar was uecorated in black and the officiating prie-ts were clad 1n somber vestments. A solemn requiem mass was celebrated by | Rev. Father Kearns, assisted by Father Conlan and Faiher Cooper of San Mateo. Father Conlan delivered a touching ad- dress on the life and character of the dead officer, and few eyes were dry when he had concluded his remarks. The floral pieces were many, and rep- resenied the rarest work of the florists and the sweete-t flowers that grow. They filled twoexpress wagons. The most ceible was a large piece, [he Gates Ajar,” presented by the officers and em- vloyes of the Frank Tanning Company. At the base were the words, wrought in violet, *“Fallen in the Discharge of His Duty.”” The county officers and civic sce cietiesalso sent choice pieces. McEvoy was one of those men whom every one called friend. tinction between the rich and 1he poor, the capitalist and the laborer. He was generous to a fault, in many cases incon- veniencing himself to accommodate oth- ers. Anything belonging to him was at the disposal of his friends, and frequently when applied to he would procure for »thers what he did not have himsel!. attended the | He knew no dis- | s open to the needy. | His name was always to be found heading tue list in every charitable movement, he | often donating $50 where others gave $1. The prisoners in his charge had the oreatest respect for him. Strict as his | prison rules were very seldom wasany complaint heard. Tuhough kind and gentle to all, yet | when occasion and duty demanded no | piwer on earth coulad swerve him in his {actions. Such a man’s Iriendship was worth acquiring. The symnathy of the entire community goes out to his pereaved widow, whois | almost inconsolable. Mckvoy was mar- ried only last July, and at the tume there was every prospect of a long and hapoy | life. The conple were devoted to one | another to a marked degree. The life of | the wile wus eutirely wrapped up in that of the husband. | McEvoy was a charter member of R-d- wood Parlor No. 63, Native Sons of the | | Goiden West, having been born in this | | county, but a chort distance from Red- wood City. His early life was spent on & ranch and was uneventful untii about the | year 1892, when he became a candidate for | Steriff on the D mocratic ticket. He was elected by an overwheiming majority. Aguin in 1804 he was placed on the same ticket for the same office, and his victory was but a repetition of the first. He nas always been considered one of | the most f.arless officess San Mateo | County ever had. | 5 | FLANNELLY MUCH IMPROVED. Belief That the Murderer Will Recover From His Wounds.

IONE, Oct. 30.—*“That is a lie—a story made out of whole cloth—and there is no man on this earth who wiil make that as- sertion to me face to face.” It was Mr. O'Brien of the Preston School who spoke in answer to the question as to whether he had wielded the whip unon tie bare backs cf the boys until flesh ew and blood ran, and then had thrust salt into their wounds. “Did you flog a boy until he fainted and then throw a bucket of water into his face to revive him?"’ he was asked. “Idid not.” “Did you threaten and abuse asick boy while he lay helpless in his bed ?” I did not.” ““Were twenty of them flogged at ome | time because they objected to the dis- | charge of Capiain Hawk?" “They were not.” “Has there been a wholesale escape?” 4 No, si:” “It is reported that nineteen escaped yesterday.” *There were nine, and all turoed.” **Is it true that fifty of the boys could not attend chapel on Sunday because their ci othes were 3o ragged ?”’ “The bovs in the school to-day are as I founa thern."” *“‘Are they in a state of revolt?”’ “They are not.” Tueseare theanswers as they came from Dr. O'Brien, and they were given with an emphasis which was not extirely free from emotion *I have made no attempt to vindicate myself,”’ continued the Superintendent, ‘in any newspaper controversy.
