8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14 NO NEWS FROM THE CLEVELAND Steamers From Grays Har- bor and Puget Sound in Search of Her. Carried Two Steerags Passen- gers and a Crew of Twenty- Six All Told. Arrival of the Barkentine Tropic Bird From Tahiti and the Marquesas Group. The fate of the steamer Cleveland that sailed from this port for Seattie on the 4th inst. is sull in doubt. The Pacif Coast Steamship Company’s Waila Wa.la that got in trom the sound yesterday did not sight her, and Captain Waliace is of the opinion that if still afioat, the Cleve- land s away out toseaand out of the track of the regular traa Ojinton as to tho safety of the vessel is about evenly divided. Steamer captains think tne Cleveland has b! n and that Captain Hali hav y his sails to depend orn, stood out to sea and will await assistance where there is plenty of rcom, Others egain point out that the steamer was old, that even 1f she did break down, she ought to have been heard frot before this, and that even the stoutest sea | last overcome him, and he is going back | in his old vessel again. Captzin G. F. Olson of the schooner Guide is entbusiastic in his vraise of the master of the steamer Scotia, who came to his assistance last Tussday when ne wasin a crippled condition. The schooner ran into a severe storm about sixteen miles out and her foremast carried away. The weather was heavy and a high sea running, so the schooner was in a bad fix. The master of the Scotia saw that the Guide was in distress and put out of his course 1o sea if assistance was wanted. While no help was needed Captain Oison was much pleased over the acion of the | master of the Scotia. HIRSCHBERG'S SUCCESSOR. The Grand Recorder Will Become Gen- eral Maunsger of Preston School. The announcement that Grand Recorder Hirschberg is to go to Preston and retire trom the position that he has so well filled for many vears was in the nature of a sur- | prise 10 the members ot the Ancient Order of United Workmen in this city. | The grand recorder will not leave his pres- | ent position at once and it is possible that he will not retire until the latter part of | Marci or the first part of April, as he has many matters connected with the order to vut into shape before transferring the office to his successor. The vacancy will be filled by Grand Master Workman Vinter, but who is to be selected is as yet not thought of. There was some talk among prominent members of the order yesterday tbat the grand master workman may name lor the office to fill the unexvpired term Assistant Re- | corder Campe, Who isa member of Valiey Lodge, and the name of Deputy Grand | Master Workman Poland was also men- | ioned. e Argnment Postponed. i The argument in the livel suit of Claus Spreckels tA.

Circuit Judze Mortow Kefuses to Ad ju- | dicate a Mining Case. United S:ates Circuit Judge Morrow | yesierday ordered the case of the Argo- naut Mining Company vs. Kennedy Min- ing and Mlling Compzny remanded to the 8 ate courts. In the course of iis It bas been repeatedly determined by the Supreme Court that a case, not de- vending on the citiz nshipof the parties, nor otnerwise specially provide i for, can- not be removed from a State court into the Circuit Court of the United States, as one ariing under the constitution, laws or treaties of the Uniled Siates, uniess that appears by the vlaintiff's siatemeut of his own claim, and that, if it does not s> ap- pear the want cannot be supplied by any statement in ihe petition ior removal or in tne subsequent pleadings. The court quoted Mr. Justice Harlan of States Supreme Court as fol- lows: **We are not required to say that it is es- sential to the maint-nance of the juris- aiction of the Circuit Court of such a suit ihat the pleadings should refer in words to the particuiar ciause of the constitution relied on to sustain tue claim of immunity in question, but only that the essentisl facts averred must show, not by inference Oor argumentatively, but clearly and dis- tinctly that the suit is one of which the Circuit Court is entitled to take cogni- zance.”” ———— Distarbed the Peace. Low Yum Pim, a half-crazy Chinese, who was taken to the Receiving Hospital on De- cember 9, was discharged by the Insanity Com- mixsiouers yesterday.

The case of fciiweltzer vs. Charles M. Short- ridge for libel was aismissed by Judge Hunt yesierday. his four mounts. Piggott and H. Martin each piloted a winner. Tommy Grifin and his friends were <uprosed to tave s big thing up their sleeve in Rubicon. Noneof the farmers in this section of the country were given credit for knowing that such a horse ex- isted. He hudn’t been working a littie bitthey said, and wouldn’tdo. Ween the chestnut sprinter's odfis reached 3 10 1 the valises were uniocked und Rubicon’s odds came down 106 to 5. He sulked the first part, and though snowine a startiing flash of speed mnearing the end, finished third. Magrane's sprinter, Montsomery, made it one more, easly defeating Tea Rose, <te;- pine the five and a half furlongs off in 1:08){. The winner went tothe postat odds uf Hto 2. But a successful coup was turned with Gariand Barr. Itissaid th: horse was sent broadcast to the different poolrooms in the country as a ‘'moral,” and by a piece of deliberate foulinz on the part of his rider, Joe Piggott, managed 1o land, :elling run, furnishea the occasion for him to shine. Bernaai!lo opened favorite, but might just as well have remained at home, for all the showing he made. Still it was up to the standard of his stable. Garland Barr opened at 5 to 2 and was hammered down to 8 to 5. Leading most of the way, he was overhauled near the paddock by Clawson on Double Quick. When the lat- ter horse was a neck in front Piggotton the favorite pulled into Double Quick, al- most throwing that horse against the fence. Bv the time Clawson got his mount straight Garland Barr ~as again in front and in a drive won by a head. Clawson justly claimed a foul, but it was not allowed. Sybaris, the Burns & Waterhouse entry, experienced no d:fficulty in defeating the thir e=n other entries in the opening six- furiong run. He was sent away on the run and ied Valencienne out by three lengths.

Rival Multi-Millionaire, Whose Fad Is a Winning Eleven, Three Players Already Gone—Alarm- ing Outlook for Any Local Team Next Season. The nucleus of the Reliance football team may very soon move to Anaconda, Mont., for permanent residence and steady and lucrative employment. Anaconda is the rival of Butte. It has caught the tootball fever that Butte contracted three years ago. As an immediate result of the recent | visit to Butte of the Reliance eleven three | of the players at once accepted positions offered them in the neighboring mining town of Anaconda. So they remained in Montana while their companions turned to San Franci-co. McHugh, tackl Bert Oliver, guard, and Arlett, fuilback, were the three men vho stayed and beceme citizens of Ana- conda. at $3 perday. Oliver i+ doingassaying at $12 aday. Arlett, following his trade, is getting $6 a day as a bricklayer, and, | though he is a strict church member and | a Coristian Endeavorer, he purposes, it is raid, to work every day the month. His lirst break for a good impression with his prospeciive employer was made in Butte, when he consented to piav in the Sunday football match between Reliance and Butt: ‘‘Pete’” Smith, Sexton, Hobbs, “Tommy"" Code and Sheelly are all willing and ready to transfer their allegiance to Auaconda, provided they ean be assured of perma- nent positions sufficiently more renumer- | ative than those they are now occupying | 1n this city. They are waiting to hear from Anaconda. Under stances they would like to spend the next four or five years in Anaconda. There are probably other football vet erans that would, under similar condi- iion-, not be averse to changing their residence to the ente:prising young min- ing town. Leading up to this importation of foot- bail talentinto Montana there is a story of the rivalrv aud the patronage of two muiti-millionaires. In that mining dis- strict of which Butte is the center every person that makes his living directly or | indirectly from tle mines is supposed to be either “a Clarke man” or *a Daly man,” according to which of the great mining mugnates he favors. Clarke, it will be remembered, is the generous ‘*‘good angel” who lirst stood vebind the Butte football club, and paid the expenses in the seasons of '94 and '95 when the Butte team took long irips in a private car. It was through th:s early suprort and intluenc: thut football was fostered 1n Butte, and eveniually became a wild and novel delight to the thousands of big hardy miner-. The whole commu- nity was for the gridiron game, and every player was a popular favorite. So iteasily came about thatseveraliootball men went | to Batte, and through the influence of Millionaire Clarke and the co-operation of Butte business men secured good posi- tions in the town: Among the first to go to Butte from this coast was George McMilian, then captain of Reliance and formeriy a Sianford guard. Percy Benson, then quarterback and for two seasons captain oi the Berk- eley varsity, followed. Big “Jim" Hooper, University of Micnigan, had settied in Butte a little earler. He soon induced Hall, the giant Michiganjguard—since de- ciared a professional athlete—to come to Butte. And ties: two Michizan men, while in this ci'v with the Butie team in the winter of '95, met Dygzert, a young lawyerand former Michigan ha!fback and easily persuaded him 10 go back with them to Butte and there hang out his shingle. It was in this way that the Butte football club, recruited by many powerful and willing miners, turned out a formidable team that for two seasons practically overpowered all opponents irom the Mississippi River to the Pacific Oceun. With the withdrawal last year of Mil- lionaire Clarke's patron the power of Butte be to decline. The Butte-Olym- pic charity-game fiasco in this city on last New Year's day eventually bud aimost as bad an effect upon Butte as it did upon O.ympic. For while the Oly mpic Club by drawing out of the Amateur Athletic Union cutitself and its team off from ail | r cognized amateur inter-team or inter- club coniests Bu.te was officially debarred for alleged p-ofessionalism. Only recently and by special vote Butte was restored to amateur standing. In the meantime, however, McMillan, the cap- tain, Hooper, the ex-captain, and Hall, the unrestored professional, had Butte. For several days past “‘Pete’’ Smitn%of Reliance has been carrying on uegotia- tions with the University of Nebraska for a match in this ciiy on Christmas day, but yesterday the plan was declarea off as Nebraska wanted all expenses guar- anteed, and 1t was estimated they would be about $:000. So there will be no big holiday gridiron mateh in San Francisco, The Chicago papers, reviewing the foot- ball season just closed, speak of Pennsyl- vania as the champion of the East, Wis- consin as the champion of the North- west, Nebraska as champion of the Middle West and Stanford as champion of the Far West. It was suggested that these teams decide the national su- premacy. Wisconsin and Nebraska im- mediately made overiures to Sianford for 4 game in this city on Caristmas day, but Captain Cotton, belisving thatall his men could not be got in proper condition and kept from their homes for i he game, re- fused to make a match. Calitornia Products. A number of fine dispiays of citrus produets of Tulare Conniy were received yesterday at the iooms of the Siate Buard of Trade. The display consists of oranges, lemons, sesdless limes, pomelos and citrons. Tt is said to be the best collection sent from the southern part of the State. Another fine exhibit was received from Colusa County. This consists of cereals of severui varieties of wheat, barley and broom Indian Egyptian corn. ——————— Battery Upon kis Wife, A warrant was issued in Judge Joachimsen’s court yesterday for the arrest of George W.

The Cause of Much, Perhaps Most Il1- Health—How to Keop It Cloar and Circulating. There is one thing that is aimitted by everybody, that the blood must be kept moving if the brain is to be clear and the health good. No one ever questions this, and yet how few people have good circu- lation. Sometimes the pulse seems to be rnnning away, and again it can hardly be felt. This is all wrong. Any man or woman who wishes health (and who does not?) must have an even and good circu- iation of the blood. There is only one way by which this can be accomplished, and that is by the use of a pure stimulant. Not an ordinary one, but something pure, palatable and re'iable. Such in the hirhest degree is Duffy’s Pure Mait Whiskey, and such it bas been proven to be for a score of years. It is the most popular stimulant in the world, and it owes its popularity wholly to its merit. Caze should be taken to ses that Duffy’s and only Duffy’s is used. Ins'st upon having your druggist or grocer give you what you ask for. Thera are all the health-g.ving qualities in Duffy’s Pure Malt, and you will certainly find it so upon trial.
