10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JANUARY 7, 1898 SELLING-RACE WAR RAGING McManus Got Back at Sam Hildreth by Taking George Lee. Double Quick Captured His Race Cleverly and Also Changed Owners. Attainment Claimed From a Race. Three Favorites Captured Purses. Song and Dance in Front. The selling race war inaugurated some days ago at Ingleside is proving a most prolific source of income to the Pacific Coast Jockey Club. When George Lee took the opening event in clever fashion vyesterday, “Plunger” McManus got back at Sam Hildreth for bidding up St. Cuthbert at the re- cent Oakland meeting by bidding the winner up from $200 to $800, at which figure Sam let the colt go. Attain- ment, a starter in the same race, en- tered to be sold for $400, was claimed by Timmons & Marks, which firm started La Loma. The next “lift” oc- curred in the fourth race. Double Quick, the winn was entered to be sold for $500, and when Frank Brown bid him up to $1000, Atkins & Lott- ridge parted company with the chest- nut horse. By the smile that {llumin- ated his countenance, By Holly evident- 1y thought he unloaded a gold brick in the last event, the extra six-furlong run. Torsion,the fortunate winner, had $300 opposite his name on the card, and when Sam Hildreth said $500, By smil- ingly bid adieu to the big Torsion horse and hereafter he will carry the Hildreth colors. From this little batch the Jockey Club profited xtent of $650, and the manage- ment smiles as the merry war rages in all its fierceness. The downpour of rain and the sloppy going did not seriously interfere with the success of the favorites, for four out of six were successful. This does not mean that by the downfall of the other three the books profited to any great extent, for all of them were fair- 1y well backed. No doubt the most serious setback the talent received was over the result of the two-mile run, a sweepstake at $25 each, with $1000 added by the asso- iation. The weights looked all in fa- vor of The Bachelor and he went to the post a warm 6 to § favorite. The slushy going, though, was not to his liking and Song and Dance, the pace- maker, won in a big canter. The win- ner, carrying 112 pounds and Spencer in the saddle, drifted back in the bet- ting from 5 to 2 to 16 to 5. Vinctor, the second choice, was a dismal third. George Lee looked the best of the eleven starters in the opening seven- furlong run, agd finishing strong the last part won handily from Attain- ment, the second choice, ridden by Thorpe. The latter filly made all the running. Barney Schreiber took third money with Dr. Marks. The smart filly Tea Rose looked a “moral” for the five-furlong dash, but after opening in the betting at even money went back to 13 to 10, while Count of Flanders was hammered down from 8 to 5 to 11 to 10. Tea Rose led from the first jump and won, pull- ing Clawson out of the saddle, from the Count. Double Quick, the 13 to 20 choice for the fourth event at seven furlongs, was given quite a forcible argument by Harry Thoburn, but shook that geld- ing off in the stretch and won at the | wire by a couple of lengths. Thorpe, | on the latter, urged him so hard the | first part in a fruitless endeavor to beat | the winner that, staggering at the end, he was beaten a nose for the place by | Walter J. Fog rolling in from the ocean ob- scured much of a view of the mile and a sixteenth selling affair, for which the Baldwin entry Argentina went to the post a 7 to 5 chance. At any rate Eddie Jones could not land her a winner. Plan, the second choice, jumped out in the lead and never headed led the first choice over the line by three lengths. Can’t Dance was a close third, a block in front of Cromwell. The last event was declared off and a cheap six furlong scramble substi- tuted. Ten started, with Sorrow carry- ing 87 pounds ruling a hot 9 to 10 favor- ite.. Woods got the worst of an uneven break, and though the fast mare made up a deal of ground thus lost could not get up to Torsion, ridden by Piggott, which got the decision by a neck. La Mascota, a 20 to 1 shot, ran into the show. LA e TRACK ITEMS. Piggott, who had the mount on Torsion, was fined $50 for carrying Woods on Sorrow wide turning into the stretch. Palomacita appears to be more than little Meany can manage. The mare ran out with him at the first turn, ruining all her chances. Lonnie Clayton, the crack colored rider, has arrived here. He was merely a spectator at the track yesterday, but will grnbnbly take a hand in the game to-day. He has been a gen- eral favorite wherever he has ridden, and no doubt will score a success at the two big tracks here. Hughey Jones has purchased the well-known performer Benamela for $650. It looks as though the bookmaker stood a chance to win him out to-day. Tom Ryan sald that he thought Tea Rose a “pipe,” but that the wise division talked him into playing his own colt. $ Following are to-day’s entries: First Race—Seven furlongs: selling. 373 Nonchals . | 378 Draught ........104 353 Xetious 0% 01| L Fred“Gaiiner. 10 354) Triumph 114 oniro 3 G0 Chamren™a 107/ 389 Twinkle Twink.102 Second Race—Six furlongs; purse. 345 Hermoso 114| 346 Catawba 101 119/ 3% The Dippe 134| (379)Einstein . 104 .

Despondency, Business Failure and Unrequited Love Not the Cause of Self-Destruction. Miss Ray Frank gave forth the the- ory yesterday at her lecture at Mrs. Sloss’ residence that it is not despon- dency, business failure, unrequited love and the like that leads to so many suicides from the ferry-boats passing Goat Island. She says the unfortu- nates who thus cast away their v are hypnotized by the moving water. She states that it is dangerous to look upon the moving water, for the motion is in opposition to th* motion of the person, and therefore the person is so powerfully affected as to make him throw himself into the bay. On the other hand, she states that if the water had the same motion as the person no opposition would arise and consequently it would have no influs ence. Not of all the people that end their lives in this manner does Miss Frank speak, but it is her theory that this is the case with the majority. During her lecture she recalled the old legend that God when he made man endowed him with every blessing and gift that he himself had, and when it came to the last he decided to hold back one gift lest man would not need him. This gift was rest. Seeking for, this is the object of the whole world; it i{s the problem that makes men brothers; that has touched the human world more than any other. e in the Divorce Courts. George Green was granted a divorce | from Olivia Green yesterday on the ground of desertion. John A. Martin was granted a divorce from his wife Catherine E. Martin, on the ground of ‘willful desertion. *“THE CALLS” PACIFIC COAST JOCKEY CLUB-- of the Winter Meeting. rainy. Track sloppy. Thursday, RACING CHART.

The Supreme Court Will Be Asked to Set Aside the Judgment. A Much Talked of Case That Will Probably Be a Long One. Another appeal from the judgment rendered in a recent murder trial is being perfected and will soon be pre- sented to the Supreme Court. On October 19 Richard Phelan, the superintendent of the Gold Ridge Mine, a claim owned by the Marguer- ite Mining Company in Sierra County, shot and killed Daniel O'Connor, a miner and prospector of that section of the country. O’Connor's brother, James, was hit in the hip by 2 builet fired at Phelan by a man named Paul Mauller, who was himself shot and instantly killed by Phelan. Phelan was acquitted of the murder of Muller, as it was shown at been sent up by some of the other stockholders in the concern to jump Phelan’s portion of the claim and thereby freeze him out, Phelan’s affi- davit of assessment work being held back to afford an excuse for the ac- tion; also that when the fracas oc- curred Phelan acted entirely on the defensive, not shooting until Muller had shot at him and wounded O'Con- nor in his endeavor to kill. After recovering from his wound O'Connor left that part of the coun- try, but his brother, Dan, remained, continuing in the employ of Phelan, though he made, almost daily, threats against the life of his boss because of the injuries suffered by his brother James. Finally Dan O'Connor became 8o troublesome that Phelan was obliged to discharge him. After receiving no- tice of his discharge he went to work on a claim of his own, situated some four miles from Phelan’s mine. He and his partner were entirely without funds, and had it not been for the fact that Phelan continually sent them supplies and provisions, agreeing to wait for his money until such time as they could pay it, they would have been forced to abandon their enter- prise. Notwithstanding these acts of friendship on Phelan’s part, O'Connor continued his threatening language. O’Connor was addicted to the use of intoxicants, and when in town usually got drunk. On the day of the killing Phelan and O'Connor met in Sierra City, and after some short conversa- tion separated, Phelan returning to his mine, which is located some two miles out of the city. While working on the trail leading to that place he encountered O'Connor, who was re- turning from the town. Without a word of warning O'Connor opened fire on Phelan, discharging his revol- ver twice, but failing to hit his in- tended victim. Before he could shoot a third time Phelan returned the fire with a rifle, shooting once, the bullet striking O’Connor on the side of the neck and killing him instantly. Phe- his camp, but which he had getting into the hands of an intoxi- cated employe. Messrs. Edward J. Banning and Barclay Henley, who are assoclated with Hon. F. D. Soward as attorneys for the defendant, claim that the ver- dict of murder in the second degree, brought in by the jury which tried the defendant at Downieville, was not a just one nor one in accordance with the testimony; as the very worst which could possibly be expected from the evidence, granting that the theory of the prosecution was correct, would be a verdict of manslaughter. They further claim the community was so antagonized by the misrepresentations of the two newspapers there—the Mes- senger, in which Fred Wehe, the Dis- trict Attorney, is financially inter- ested, and the Enterprise, whose edi- tor, John B. Irish, was associated with Wehe in the prosecution, that it was impossible for their client to obtain an impartial trial. Phelan was sentenced twenty-five years in Folsom. WILL VISIT 1S FORMER HOME The Rev. Dr. Bolton Granted an Indefinite Leave of Absence. to serve He Is Now Convalescing After a Very Severe Attack of Neuralgia. The Rev. W. W. Bolton, rector of the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, on the corner of TUnion and Steiner streets, will leave for Victoria, B. C., on Tuesday next to be absent for sev- eral weeks, if not months. Dr. Bolton, ‘who was the first rector of the church, has been ill for some time past, and his physicians recommended a change of climate and scene. He came here from Victorla eight years ago, and he believes that a trip to his old home will restore him to health. “I am subject to neuralgia,” said Dr. Bolton last night, “and I am now recovering from a particulgrly severe attack. My physicians informed me that absolute rest and a change of cli- mate were necessary to completely restore me to health. When the vestry of the church heard of the opinion of the physicians they kindly granted me a leave of absence. I have permis- sion to remain away until I feel that I can again take up my pastoral work. I hope that a month's rest will be sufficient, but it may take longer. My family ‘will remain in the city during my absence. ‘The vestry has not yet decided who will take charge of the church during the absence of Dr. Bolton. The Rev. E. Van Deerlin of Grass Valley will relieve Dr. Bolton after next Sunday. He will probably remain here about two weeks, and in the meantime some of the clergymen will be selected to occupy the pulpit until Dr. Bolton re- turns. . ——— To Cure a Cold_n One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

Speculation as to Who Will Be Made a Sergeantand a Detective. The Wife of a Member of the Force Will Ask That Her Husband Be Disciplined. The fact leaked out yesterday that the Police Commissioners will hold a special meeting to-morrow night, which caused a good deal of comment. One of the objects of the meeting will be to fill the vacancy caused by the re- tirement of Sergeant Fitzgerald. The promotions of Corporal Ayers and Po- liceman Owen Gorman to fill the va- cancies due to the retirement of Ser- geants Cornelius Martin and Abe Houghtaling were expected and have given general satisfaction throughout the department, but it was confidently anticipated that the other vacancy would have been filled at the same time. It has developed that the reason was owing to the Commissioners being un- | able to agree upon the lucky one. | There are quite a number of men seek- | ing promotion who by their meritori- ous work and years of service are just- ly entitled to recognition, and their claims are being vigorously presented by their friends. The difficulty of selecting one out of the number agree- able to the three Commissioners could not be surmounted Wednesday night and consequentlv it was decided to meet again to-morrow night. In the meantime an effort will be made to ar- | rive at an amicable understanding, so the appointment can then be made. It is also understood that at the meeting the vacancy in the detective department will be filled. It has been in existence since last April when Ben | Bohen was promoted to be captain of detectives, and no apparent reason has ever been advanced for keeping it open so long. Two names have been prominently mentioned several times for the position—Ed Wren and Harry Reynolds. Both have been doing de- tective work for some time and are eminently qualified to fill the bill. Wren has been associated with Detective Ed Gibson, and together they have made latest being the Japanese murderer, George Tauchi. A case will also be heard by the Com- missioners of a delicate nature. The wife of a member of the force has pre- ferred a charge against her husband of being unfaithful to his marriage vows, and she wants the Commission- ers to discipline him and compel him to behave himself like an officer and a gentleman. Two Burglars Convicted.
