All-America is a grand combination of ball-players—tne greatest aggregation since Spalding made the tour of the world, vlaying at the foot of the Pyramids, Baltimore, while not winning the league championship, Was considered the mightiest team in the league. Its visit to the coast is to show how the game shall be played. In to-morrow’'s game several familiar faces will appear on the diamond. Corbett, one of the pitchers for Baliimore, is a brother of Harry Corbett and Jim Cor- bett. Heis a young player, but of much promise. To-morrow there will be many games played on the diamond in this city. At Tonquin street, North Beach, the Young Americas will meet the Thomas Jefterson<. The game at Clarendon Heights will be between the Champions and the Vigilantes. The Sunset district 18 proud of its nine. Sunset will cross bats with Sunrise. At Eighteenth street and Railroad avenue, South San Fran- cisco, Progress will meet Excelsior. At Central Park the Bushnell Alerts will contest with the Will & Fincks or the | California Markets. Both the last-named | teams are about to leave the yellow jour- | nal tourzament.

MISSING FROM RIS HOME. Walter Saling, a Thirteen-Year- 01d Boy, Disappeared Eight Days Ago. Walter Saling, the 13.year-old son of Theodore Saling of 303 California street, | has been missing from his home for the last eight days, and although the police have been on the hunt for him no trace of the little fellow can be found. His parents do not think that any accident bas befallen him, as they are certain that his absence irom the parental roof is due to the fact that the boy has run away. Walter was first missed on Tuesday, the | 6th of last month. He had been sent| to school the day before, but it has since | been learned that he did not go. He re-| turned in the evening, but the foliowing | night he remained away and has not been seen since.

A few days after the injunction was granted an ex-parte motion to modify it was allowed by Judge Hebbard, and (he Harbor Commissioners sant a force to re- move the obstructions. This force was driven off by Warren & Mall-y’s men without accomplishing 11s purpose, and after a hearing by the attorney for the Fair estate tne Judgze rescinded his ex- parte order. The Harbor Commissionars then made a formal order to the same ef- fect, and it was upon this that yesterday’s opinion was rendered. Attorneys McEnerney (for the Fair es- tate) and Siration (for the Harbor Com- missioners) stated that there was nothing to do now but to proceed with the trial of the suit to determine the ownership of the property in dispute, whether it be part of the navigable waters of the bay, and, theretore, under the jurisdiction of the State, or a part of the city and county of San Francisco.

A JUDGE'S INK OSED IN A WILL This May Cut Some Figure in the Fight for Capron’s Gold. Forces Marshaling to Begin a Bitter Fight on Mon- day. Jurist Fitzgerald Acoused of Unduly Influencing a Victim of Mor- phine, Yesteraay was a busy day among the lawyers in the great Fi'zgerala-Kearney will contest, though nothing was done in court. The forces were busy marshaling their evidence for the opening of the bhattls on Monday. The Kearney side will begin in earnest on that day, and for this purpose more than fifty witnesses haye been sub- pena ed. The contestants to the will propounded by Judge Fitzgerald say they will make a strong showing against the Nevada jurist. The evidence throu:hout will be sensa- tional. It will be charged that Judge Fitzgerald was unduly solicitous as to the disposition of the Capron estate; tnat his influence over the dying man was bad at all times; that Capron was insane. a helpless mor- phine fiend, imagining all sorts of things as to the evil intentions of those near and dear to him, and that it was at this time that Judge Fitzgerald took advantage of him. In opposition to the contention of Judge Fiizgerald that his influence over the sick capitalist was only such asany good friend might exert, the stepdaughtersallege thet Fitzgerald began to haunt their stepfather like an evil spirit the moment he saw that the oid man was failing; that, at a time when Capron’s mind was cloudy from the use of morphine, taken in his last hours to renieve him fro m pain, Fitzgerald told him he was doing wrong 10 give his prop- ertv to his stendaughters. The Kearney side claims, also, that the Fitzgeraid will could not have been dated on April 16, which was Good Friday, and they say tne invalid was not able to leave his bed on that day. They say he wasso ill that he cried like a child when they compelled bim to change his apparel or tuke a bath; that wnat he complained of as cruelty, when under the influence of morphine, was nothing more serious than forcing him to take care of himself. In proof of the .charges that the in- fluence of Fitzgerald was undue, tbe at- torneys for the stepdaughters will em- phasize the fact that Fitzgerald took muny waiks with their invalid stepfather, spending days at a time with him at the Ciiff House. ‘They will draw a picture of the Judge carrving ink and pen from his house to the office of Judge Mayenbaum, so that the will coud be signed in the same kind of ink with which it was writ- ten. All this, they say, showing undue interest and influence on the part of the | legal gentleman wno was the principal beneficiary under the instrument. All the girls have already sworn that they did not know ihat their mother was ever divorced from Capron. They empha- size the fact that Jndge Ki'zgerald got a deed to all the dead man's property in 1884 and that, within a month, the same Judge drew up d vorce pavers, according served them and got the decree in Nevada. They say, however, there was no filling of the judgment roli until 1888, more than a vear afier their motoer’s death. Inthis connection it is alleged that the mother and lather lived together in apparent peace and happiness until the mother's death in 1887, in spite of the alleged divorce three years before.
