THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4 1897 i A V8 RECALL FLAG NOT NECESSARY, Caldwell Does Splendid Work With the Gate at Ingleside. Jockeys if Properly Disciplined Will Line Up at the Barrier. Trainer Bill Murry Acquired The Dipper at a Bargain — Horsemen With Nuggets From Dawson. TrE CALL in a recent issue took a de- termined stand against the recall flag be- ing used in connection with the Aus lian startinez device, at present 1in use on | The argu- | both of the ment was advanced big trac bere. nuch of the th blame attached to the gate was due to the | leniency of the starters with the jockeys. At the commencement of the present meetinz at Ingleside the directors issned orders to Starter Caldwell to discontinue the use of the red bunting, hrought into requisition as a signal to call the horses back in what was deemel an irregular | breakaway. He did so with many ominous misziv- ings, the wrath of the public and press staring bim in the face. About the first move the veteran starter made was to travel down to the jockeys’ room and read the riot act to a group of that pre- cocious gentry. The reszlt is that during the past week betier starting has n be:n seen anywhere. The delays been scar noticeable and toe have been dispatched in matchless fash- ion, The Pr sindeed himself again.

Bill says the ition the stable made to e sojourning on the other side of the Rockies was The Dipper. In the stable of Deve Gideon he bad per. formed with indifferent success until a day came along when the astute Gideon arrived at the conciusion that the time had come to get even. He bet $10,000 on the youngster and thought ibe jockey shot the race away. Calling Bili to a secluced corner he told him if he had a spare halter he could go down to his stavble and piace The Dipper’s head 1nit and lead him away—lead him anywhere. The man from Caiifornia did and it is said always made it an object to be near Gideon when one of his horses lost with a bundle of its owner’s cc aboard. Itis quite likely there will bs racinz at Dawson City next summer. Joe Boyle of Woodstock, Or o, a son of the senior member of the Lastern racing firm of Boy.e & Littlefield, visited the track yes- terday, fresh fr. the gold fields of the north, and exhibited to his friends nug- gets nearly as large as a footha!l. He left nere last spring wita the Australian boxer, Paddy. Slavin, and party, and says tuey all got in on tiie ground Hoor. Boyle, who is quite a toxer himself, met -all comers at Dawson.

The first race over the new steeplechase course will be run this afternoon. Thue riders do not view the sharp turns wiin much favor and predict nume:ous spiils and broken limbs.

The rowing clubs are holding a series of entertainments, the season foractive boat- in: having expired. On Thursday evening the Sonth Ends he!d a pleasant entertainment and danc. at Union-square Hal! on Post street. At Armory Hall, Alameda, Iast night the Alamedas gave a musical snd literary entertainment, which was larceiy art- tended.

The swimming race between Siolle and Brewer is exciting the Dolphins and they will ave a delegation on hand to encour- age Stolle. THE BASEBALL SITUATION. The fact, known for years, that mid- week baseball games would not pay in this city, has been further accentuated by | the partial failure of Manager J. Frank Eline of All Americaand Baltimore teams during the pres; week. The San Fraa- cisco public will patronize games on Saturday and Sunday, the latier liber- ily, but it will not support midweek con- s on the diamond. The basebail athletics at Tuesday's charity game were a disappointment. The long and accurate throwing was somewhat farcical.

Wheelmen from power. The reports of officers and committee chairman wi!l be carefuily digested, and will proye food for much gratification, for the association has had a vphenomenally saccessful year. Then there will come up the proposi- tion to making the racing interests of the C. A. C. C. secondary to its other endas, such as good roads agitation, legislation for better highways and matters which do sport, Charley Kraft, the great road-racer, will apply in person for reinstatement into the amateur ranks, and as Chairman Welch of the racing board proposes to vigorously stand by his action in declar- ing Chariey a professional, in spite of the fact that heand the speedy Teuton. are members of the same club—the Bay City Wheelmen — there ~viil be internecine strife over thls question. One of the features of the annual meet- ing is the election ot officers for the ensu- ing year, anu tue “slaie,” which was so carefully prepared by the head men of the body and which seemed as firm as the rock of Gibraliar & week ago when I an- nounced it in these columes, scems likely to be cracked in two. Itis upon the office of president that the spht will come. Charles Albert Adams of the Olympic Club Wheelmen and this year's road-racing chairman seemed to have a walkover until the last few days, when some interests opposed to him pre- valled upon Vincent A. Dodd of the En- cinal Cyclers, Alamedn, to start in the race against him. Mr. Dodd has been a piliar of strength in the association ana bis candidacy was at ouce popular. He never does things by halves, and when he started out upon his canvass was soon assured of what he thinks will be enough yotes to elect him. Mr. Adams has many friends, however, and _will make a strong fight, unless he decides to withdraw, as be ouce stated he wonid do it if anv one else wanted the offics more than he did. There will bs no opposition to the old stand-by, Stanley G. Scovern, also an Oiympic, for secretary. The ciubs are siow at aprointing their new delegates for 1898, only four having sent in the names of their representatives so far, as toliows: Patutinders—Harry A, Goodman, Ciunan, Thom#s Flanagan. Bay City Wheeimen—Dr. Thomas L. Hill, Harry Larkin, J. F coc| Golden Gate—W. J. Black, George Pay- ton, =. Severance. Capital City. Wheelmen—J. F. McDon- ald, L. 8. Upson, J. A. Woodson, The cluvs that do not send in the names of their accredited delegates to Secretary Scovern to-day will find themselves with- outa vote in the deliberations to-night, 50 the by-laws say.

Henderson, W. will make a fatal mistake if they subordinate their interest in racing to the more hackneyed if somewhat essential good-roads and Jegisia- tive fentures ofeycling. The grent prominence and influence they huve atiaived has Leen en- tirely derived through their connection with racing and its control on the coast. and if they now, on_account of slizht temporary discour- agement. abaicate the enviable position they nave so hurdiy won, they deserve to sink into the obscurity tnat faini-heariedness and lack of stability entails. The subject wiil be discussea at the meeting of the board of governors this evening, so the above artice is gnite aproros, and delegates willdo well to bear it 1n mind. The Bay City Wheelmen will have their postponed run to Point Reyes to-morrow, taking the 8 A M. Ssu-alito boat. The club will hold a progressive cribbage tour- nament Saturday evening, December 11. The club's baseball team is in active prac- tice, preparing for the Cycle League tour- nament to oven early in January. San Jose riders took a!l the honors at the Thanksgivingz-day meet at Los An- geles, Hardy Downing, the professional, and Frank Cotter, amateur, finishing in first place in ail th- events in their classes. Harry Terriil went down on a pot hunt, and took second to Downing in the mile handicap. The meet was under C. A. C. C. sancuon, and the fact that Terriil rode was asurprise to the officials here, as he had once avowedly announced himself an out-and-out L. A. W. man. Time has wrought a change, it seems. At a regulsr meeting of the Ariel Road Club, bela last Wednesday evening, the following officers were electeu: Presi- dent, A.” H. Littlewood; vice-president, Kaulfuss; treasurer, W. A.

RUSSIAN RIVER this city last Wednesday, informed John Butler, the baitfisherman, that the North of about thirty men to open the mouth of the Russian Ri.ver, which has tides. The back water raised until it flooded a bridge which spans the riverabove Austin Creek and, as 2 means oi precaution, the company decided to cut a channel through the immense mountain of sand at the river’s mouth. The opening is ex- pected to bs made to-day and that will mean, of course, a rush of steeiheads up the river and gala svort for anglers who are patiently waiting the arrival of the gamo fishes. Last Sunday a gentleman named Libby caught a beautiful basket of fresh run trout from the sex in a deep pooi near the mouth of Paper-mill Creek, known as the White House pooi. The bait used was fresh saimon spawn. Mr. Libby stated that he had seen a few lurge fish breaking water in the pool as the tide was coming in. Doubtless there are large schoois of steelheads in Tomales Bay waiting an op- portunity to ascend the river on the first rush of sweet water from the creek. Anglers who fished for grilss from the | Oakland long bridge auring the past week were rewarded by good catcnes. John | Gallagher, tne champion angler of Qak- | land, and “*Andy,” the nermit of San An- i dreas lakes, have been exceedingly fortu- nate. James Watt caught a trout in Paper- mill Creek last Sunday that scaled one | pound. BASKET AND VOLLEY BALL. The Lawyers and the Mission basket- ball team had a friendly contest last Thursday evening on the floor of the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium of this city. The victory was secured by the Lawyers after a lively game, the final score being 16 to 4 in their favor. The teams lined up as follows: Law- vers—Dan Williams, L J. Truman Je., F, D. Dehy. Mission team—George T. Shaw Jr., Dave Grant, W. Lamont, George McCleod, W. Smith, During the entire game the Lawyers bad the advant age. Their steady vractice with the Bu<iness Men’s team has brought them into a very good condition as s team. Henderson played especially well, scoring for his team 12 points, to which Williams added 4 mora to make their total 16. For the Mission team Shaw and Lamont put up the best work. The oficers of the gams were: Referee, Fred L. 8haw; umpire, H. C. Guittard; scorer, E. H. Ziska.
