PORTLAND, Or., April 28.—A Wash- ington special s: : It is the intention of the Navy Department to have one auxiliary naval vessel stationed at the -mouth of the Columbia River for its protection or in case of necessity. The probabilities are that one of the mer- chant vessels which has been in the «service in the Columbia River will be used for this purpose, or some vessel that can readily be obtained in the Columbia. She will probably be manned with six-pounders and rapid- fire guns. The Oregon Naval Reserve will probably be mustered in for ser- vice as a crew. But it is desired that men familiar with the river and the Pa- cific Northwest be in command or in position to render service on board the cruiser. poned bee 2D /APPOINTING OFFICERS _ FOR SAN JOSE.

Four Cholces Toppled Over—Hunts- man First in the Steeplechase at Odds of 18 to 1. Another gentlemen's race has been de- clded, and one more name finds a place on the beautitul silver trophy offered by the Pacific Coast Jockey Club to be given to the rider thrice successful in finishing first. Mr. Skinner, Mr. Dunphy and Mr. | Walter in the past have each scored a | win, and yesterday Walter Hobart, well- known the country over to lovers of the thoroughbred, placed himself on an equal- ity with the gentlemen named in the con- test by plloting Willlam O'B to victory in clever style. The big bay horse was favorite in the betting, and Mr. Hobart at his very best in the saddle, never left | the result in doubt, leading from the | start, and finishing half a length before | Metaire in a jollying finish. Henry Fors- land, on the latter, rode an {ll-timed race, making his supreme effort when the race | was beyond his grasp. Tulare, with Mr. | Hume in the saddle, was a good third. | The racing throughout was the best of the week, and racegoers were out in | 1arge numbers. The bookmakers had an | inning, for four well played favorites were rocked to sleep. In the opening three and a half furlong scramble for 2-year-olds, Gold Fin, the favorite, experienced no _difficulty in downing a large fleld with ease. ‘In a drive, Fddie Ames on the 30 to 1 shot Eritomartis took the (place from Cross- molina by half a length. The eastern sprinter O'Connell met with a plece of hard lucks In the six-furlong | sprint. Backed from 7 down to 4%, when apparently winning a furlong from the wire, Perry broke one of his stirrups, and keets” Martin on Imp. Tripping got the cerdict by 4 nose in 1:3%. Recreation, | the favorite, could not keep up, finishing last behind Sardonic. The crowd got aboard Reno at even money to win the short course steeple- chase, and after leading over the first two jumps that “lepper’ was raced off his feet, ultimately fetching up a distant third. Huntsman, with Shepard up and 15 to 1 in the closing betting, fenced in superb fashion and won easily from Our | Climate, another_outsider. Gov. Budd, Silverado and Esperance all came to grief. The seven-furlong selling run was cap- tured by Elsmore, second choice in the betting, ridden by “Skeets” Martin. Thorpe on the favorite, Don Luis, was a trifle late in getting up, and in a drive was beaten a neck. The faint-hearted Midas was sent to the post favorite for the concluding five and a half furlong scramble, and after leading to the stretch began to falter. Thorpe, on Naranja, then took the lead, and stalling off the rush made by Martin on Fortuna, got the decision by iess than a length. Rl T TRACK NOTES. Eddie Jones was again given a hearing be- fore the stewards of the Callfornia Jockey Club yesterday forenoon. Nothing of import- ance was developed and the case of the sus- | pended rider remains unchanged. | The judges still have Mr. Corrigan's protest against the claiming of Chihuahua by Tom Cooke early in the week under advisement. | Trainer Jimmy Coffey has a two-years' lease | on five superbly bred two-vear-olds owned by Prince Poniatowskl. The most promising ones of the bunch are St. Kristine, Violence and | Cleodoro. Jimmy pays all expenses incurred in training and takes 60 per cent of thelr win- nings. Perry, who for the first time in this section | of the country appeared up on the back of O'Connell, Is no novice, as he piloted the big sprinter in winning races East. Breaking a stirrup lost him the race. He lost his balance when the wire was reached, falling to the grour The Pacific Coast Jockey Club has again en- gaged the services of James F. Caldwell to do the tarting at Ingleside during the season His starting during the season about close has been far above the average and ng better selection could have been made. The twin foals recently dropped by Irene E at the breeding farm of A. B. Spreckels claim Eolo as thelr paternal parent and not Th Judge, as has been incorrectly stated. Huntsman was quite a_hot tip in the down town pool rooms. At the track the jumper was in poor demand, which accounts for his price receding to 15 to 1. The stewards of the® Pacific Coast Jockey Club met last evening at the Palace Hotel, when the cases of several suspended turfien were reviewed. It was rcommended to the License Committee of the Turf Congress that the license of Sid Reagan, owner of Lone Princess, be revoked. The case of H. W. Mason, owner of Lobos, Fill receive futther probing to-day. Jockevs Snider, Barry, Madden and Peters were denied a rehearing. TO-DAY'S ENTRIES.

Question of Going Under the National League’s Pro- tection. Joe Corbett Thinks We Are Good Enough as an Independent Organization. BY JOE CORBETT. Now that the two.-local leagues have consolidated joy reigns supreme in the hearts of the faithful and consistent ‘“‘rooter” over the prospect that at last his long wished for opportunity to wit- ness some real good baseball is about to be realized. The jmmense amount of enthusiasm al- ready manifested among the lovers of the TOUNG GRIFFO’S BLOWS FATAL “Bull” McCarty Dies of Injuries Received in the Fight. Concussion of the Brain Caused by the Series of Punches Administered. While No One Blow Was Serious, the Continued Hammering Cul- minated in Death. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, April 28— “Bull” McCarty, who was knocked out by Young Griffo last night, died to-night at the Sisters’ Hospital. The Sacramento Athletic Club, under whose auspices the fight was held, is very much exercised over the affair, and the belief is prevalent that it may be a death blow to fistic sport in Sac- YOUNG GRIFFO. “BULL'" MCCARTY. Principals in the Fatal Boxing Mill at Sacramento. game over this consolidation only goes to demonstrate that our great natioual game is not dead in California by any means. The managers of both leagues are to be congratulated. ‘While it is true this combining of forces was brought about only after much wrangiing and numerous heated argu- ments, still when it is considered that both leagues had invested a great amount of money and had received no returns,itis no wonder that a peaceful settlement came only after the financial affairs of all concerned were amicabiy adji ted. At Wednesday night's meeting a number of other very important points were dis- cussed, among them the advisability of having National League protection. The majority of managers, I am inclin- ed to believe, are not in favor of it, al- though Mr. Ewing of Oakland for a while made a very strong argument in favor of its adoption by the new league. He clalmed, and justly so, that without it players, in the event of their becoming ‘stars,” could very easily go East, no matter how much their services were needed here, whereas under this so-called protection a player having received an offer from some Eastern club must first have the consent of his manager before he could entertain any proposition to play elsewhere. owever, the fact that a number of good Eastern players coast should not be overlooked by this new organization. These players are at resent playing with the various teams Put they must stop the moment the Pa cific Coast League courts National pro- tection. There is an evident lack of good materfal in most of the clubs, and they should not be further weakened by compelling those who have played East to stop. The “fans” want to see good basebali, and as the game has advanced most wonderfully in the past few years it would be to the interest of the new league to court Eastern players well versed in the game. They can coach those players who through the decadene of the game for the past few years ‘n California have been unable to keep In touch with its progress. Should this be done good ball and large crowds will necessarily result. California does not need this National protection. We have been just as successful without it, if not more so; then why cater to it? Let California boast of an independent league, where players especially are given a fair chance; the managers will no doubt take care of themselves. Recre- ation as a ball ?ark is far the superior of Central, and all league games should be gl:yeddthem. where a real live ball should used. A CHAMPIONSHIP STAKE.

City Attorney Creswell filed an impor- tant opinion with the Board of Super- visors yesterday relative to the power of the board to share the expenses of grad- ing streets with Interested property- owners. The opinion concerned the grad- ing of Harrison street, between Fifth and Sixth, where improvements were made below the official grade and in conse- quence for the protection of property cer- tain work is now a necessity. According to the opinion the board is allowed to share the expense with the property- owners. —_————— On Trial for His Life. A jury was secured in Judge Wallace's court yesterday to try Charles Dean, a half-breed Chinese, who stabbed and killed Wong Yup Sing, a Chinese woman, on February 14 last, at 639 Pacific street. Dean was jealous of -the woman, and, ‘calling her to the front door of the house in which she was Iliving, stabbed her several times. Dean pleaded guilty to a charge of murder several weeks ago, but afterward withdrew the plea. abe now on sne| nearly ‘an hour without being able to | considered the most dangerous, | paid attention chiefly to pounding Mc- | ramento. The fight was a fair one and in no sense brutal. Young Griffo was exceedingly merciful in his treatment of McCarty in the ring. He delivered very few of those body blows which are and Carty on the head and face. Early in the fight he had McCarty weak and bleeding, but McCarty was game to the last. It was the continued rain of blows on the head that injured McCarty, no one blow being sufficiently hard to have produced death. When McCarty went down in the twentieth round it was from a blow so light that had he been In any kind of condition it would scarcely have s..ggered him. He fell on his hands and knees and managed to struggle to his feet before counted out. Another weak blov sent him to the floor again, but neither time did his head come in contact with the boards. The injured man was helped to his corner by his seconds, who worked over | him with water, fans and towel for render him conscious. Medical aid was summoned, but it seemed that Mc- Carty was even beyond the skill of physicians. At a very early hour this morning McCarty was still unconscious, and was removed to the Sisters’ Hos- pital, where he was attended by Dr. Charles D. McGettigan, medical super- intendent of the hospital, and Dr. A, M. Henderson. An examination showea that the injured man was from concussion of the brain. Both eyes were dilated—one considerably more than\the other, and the heart was beating very\slowly. A further exam- ination showed that the right lung was | congested and tha indications all point- ed to concussion of the brain and par- alysis. = Dr. McGettigan said at noon to-day that the case of McCarty was most ser- ious and that there was every probas bility that his death would ensue. The doctor expressed the opinion that Mc- Carty's condition was brought about, not by the fall, but by a succession of blows in one place on the head, no one of which was in itself sufficient to pro- duce the injury, but which, in the ag-~ gregate, might easily account for the brain concussion from which McCarty appears to have suffered. Dr. T. W. Huntington was also called into the case, and it was stated that he shared in the belief that McCarty would die. \ R. E. Callahan, chairman of the en- tertainment committee of the Sacra- mento Athletic Club, was interviewea this afternoon in regard to the Griffo- McCarty fight, and asked how he ac- counted for the collapse of McCarty. “McCarty was in first-class condi- tion when he went into the fight last night,” Callahan said. “Professor John Shenk pronounced him perfectly sound and declared that he was fully able to do battle. After the ninth or tenth round I was of the opinion that the fight was an even proposition, and there would be no further punishment delivered on either side. T was so0 sure of this that I left the ringside to at- tend to other duties of the club. T re- turned at the sixteenth round, and asked McCarty’s attendants what con- dition he was in, and they said first class. He did not care for any at- tendance from them and did not wish to have his legs rubbed, or, In fact, have any of those things done which are necessary when there is a hard fight. There was nothing to indicate that the man was injured at any time, and when the audience yelled to Griffo to knock McCarty out T did not think Griffo had_the strength to do it.” Chief of Police Dwyer has wired Chief Lees to arrest Griffo, and will also take into custody all the principals on either side, on a charge of manslaughter. About midnight Young Griffo was lo- cated by the searching officers, taken to the City Prison and placed in the “tanks.” GRIFFO MUST ANSWER. He Whipped a Man to Death Who ‘Was in No Condition to Fight. Young Griffo, the Australian prize- fighter, cried like a child last evening when he heard of “Bull” McCarty's death in Sacramento. It was said that McCarty died from the effects of the punching he received from Griffo, but this is the first time in the history of Griffo that even a knockdown was scored by the clever Australian. Griffo is not a heavy hitter and there are many people who scout the idea of McCarty having died from the effects of Griffo’s blows. McCarty is not from the East as suffering | stated. He was unearthed recently from the boxing files of the San_ Francisco Athletic Club and shipped to Sacramento purposely to box the Australian, as there were few if any other boxers among the local fraternity who cared to contest twenty rounds for the small amount of coin that had been offered by the Sacra- mento club. It was stated last evening by sports who knew McCarty well that the pugilist was not in the best condition to engage in any kind of athletic contest, and ‘t»- o should not have been allowed to enter the ring. Harry Woods, Who was Olic v suc- Carfy’s seconds, was arrested last even- ing/in this city, and Grifio said he was wilfing to stand the consequences and would surrender 'to the authorities. It was evidently a case of “completely out of| condition” that ended McCarty's cajreer as a fighter. _—ee——— A New Home for Athletes. |The property situated on the southeast ome_}' of Shipley and Sixth streets has een fleased- by Gustave Marshall to the San Francisco Athletic Club for a term of five years at.a total rent. of $7500.
