His vessel is lying out 1 off Long Bridge and War- s due on board at 8 p. m. He went to the Folsom-street landing early in the evening in hopes of finding the ship's boat there, but was disappointed. He walted around until nearly 8 o'clock and then started for the Mail dock thinking the boat might have come in there. While taking a short cut over the city’s portion of the water front he fell through one of the numerous holes in the wharf and found himself up to his neck in mud and water. In his fall Warren struck a stringer and hurt his left arm, side and leg. He yelled for assistance but none came, and think- ing the tide was rising he scrambled to a pile and there kept his head above water. At intervals he repeated his cries for help, byt no one heard him, and at last he be- came so exhausted that he c¢ould not be heard even if anybody had been around. After_hanging to the pile for several hours Warren found that the tide was going out and soon the mud in which he was standing was clear. He was then owerless to help himself and his arm and fog were paining him considerably. He must then ave members nathing more until he awoke to | ADVERTISEMENTS.

Line Hits of the Local and Interior Diamonds, Noting the Changes and Improvements Among the Various Clubs. BY JOE CORBETT. The teams com ing the Paclfic Coast T.eague are playing much better ball these days than one would imagine. Last Sunday all over the circuit good baseball was the order of things, even in our own city, where in the past so many miserable exhibitions have been witnessed. The leaders and those reputed to be good teams lived up to thelr reputation, yet for superb playing were outdone by the lesser lights, Stockton and San Fran- cisco. These two teams put up a game in Stockton last Sunday the like of which has not been seen in that town for many a day. For thirteen innings they fought and struggled for supremacy, only to be compelled to retire with honors even by the going down of the sun. The excite- ment attending this grand game was of such a nature as to completely unnerve some of the boys, who are not as yet re- covered from its effects. Every game played out of towh was ex- cellent and a credjt to the boys. The games at Recreation Park, especially that of Sunday, were exhibitions worthy of two times the attendance. The situation at the present moment is encouraging, indeed. The managers as well as players have realized the urgent necessity of playing good ball, and in view of this fact the games from now on will no doubt be the best seen” here in some time. This conclusion I have reached by no- ticing the improved condition of most of the teams, and the snappy, gingery spirit dispiayed by the Fresnos and Athletics while playing last week. This spirit ot playing hard and earnestly to win was as scarce as good games but a short time ago. Teams would go upon the fleld de- void of vivacity and the other qualifica- tions so necessary to a team's success. They would play as though it made no difference to them whether school kept or not, and consequently the most miser- able exhibjtions of the game ensued. They would not practice because it was too much like work, and, in short, both man- agers and players appeared to have be- come inflated with the idea that all that was necessary to make the league a howling success was to get together a few teams, fit them out with uniforms and bats, and let it go at that. They unfortunately overlooked the prin- cipal and most important part of all, that of “playing good ball.” "This oversight have amounted to but little, had all the mornimg papers undertaken to make their fight. vhen {t became ob- vious that no such luck was their's and that the papers intended writing them up in strict accordance with the rules gov- erning baseball, they should have met the situation just as it presented itself, by woull [ In_la,vlmz £00d ball, and receiving good no- | tices in return. They were provokingly slow {n realizing this, despite the f: that they were spoken of as they pl and acted. The change, however, really asserted jtgelf. The games Jf 1z | ‘h&\'e been 9 per cent better than they | were three weeks ago. The people are | gradually becoming Interested, and the | way they cheered and applauded during | Sunday’s game at Recreation Park, only goes to demonstrate what the outcome nt form. And I can see no rea- | y they should not if they continue to practice, and exhibit the me lively | sptrit so conspicuous of late. | ,The Second Battallion of Washington Volunteer Infantry has organized , u ball team, and is quite anxious to try con- ons. with some of the teams nnwl ng around and in San Francisco. | ave been endeavoring to arrange a | game for the pleasure of the soldiers, but those clubs with whom I have talked on | the subject are overburdened with sched- ! uled games, and regret exceedingly their | inability to compete. to play them Any team wishing complete arrangements by addre 1g a letter to baseball depart- ment of The Call. The Golden Gates, wwho on last Sunday played the Watsonvilles, claim that in- stead of being defeated they were robbed. This team for an amateur organization is second to none in the State, and its claim is that it defeated the Watsonvilles in the st inning, only to be robbed by the u pire, who, after calling a hit fair, which gave them three runs and the game, | changed his decision and said the ball was foul. The Golden Gates refused to continue the game after they had won it fairly, and the umpire therefore complet- ed his unfair work by giving the game to the Watsonvilles. Queer methods these. The Golden Gates have won fifteen games without a defeat. The line-up is | as follows: Carroll, shortstop; Sullivan, catcher; Dougherty, first base; Welsh, third base; Bulger, pitcher; Tracy, left field; Monahan, center fleld; Crawford, second base: Walters, right field. Pop Lockhead is in the game again and demonstrated last Sunday that he still retains his old time rapidity. His style of hitting seems to have improved materially. Tim Shanahan, the star center fielder of the Brewers, made the greatest catch seen In - Sacramento this season in Sun- day's game. After a long run he caught | a hot line hit off Dean’s bat when the ball was within a few inches of the ground. o Sykes, the tall first baseman, is com- pelled, owing to a broken finger, to retire | from the game Indefinitely. His retire- ment will be a severe loss to the Oak- lands, who at present are slightly on the toboggan. Henessey's return tp the game last Sun- day, when he played first base for the Brewers, was, hailed with delight by all the fans. In consequence the largest crowd of the season assembled to wit- ness the game, and gave “Doc” a very flattering reception. In return ‘“Doc™ played a beautiful game at.first and it is hoped he will remain in the game. Catcher Peters, the clever backstop of the Stocktons, has been released. It is a mystery how some of these teams get along. No doubt next week Peters will be heard from again catching for the tail-enders. “Ham’ Iberg is again in line, having settled his troubles with the San Jose management. If McGucken's letter to Iberg was anything like the one he wrote | me, I cannot see how. he could refuse to | return. Really, Mc., I never gave you credit for being such a clever fellow. The superb manner in which Stultz is holding down short stop for the Athletics has caused no end of speculation as to | the team’s pennant chances. It was rather weak at times in_ that position, but if Stultz can keep up his good work the team will bear very close watching. P{lne should be played in_the outfield, as he will show to better advantage and can do better work. “Kid" Peeples is playing the game of his life at third. He is, however, playing in hard luck with the Stockton scorer, as every time he goes there he has been charged with an error, when, it is said, there was no possible chance for one be- ing charged to him. The “Kid” is gain- ing some reputation as a ‘“bunter,”” and occaslonally works the hit and run. .his style of play is very scarce out here, and more of it would be appreciated. Ed Hutchison, who was captain of the Cedar Rapids team until it recently dis- banded, is to be signed by the Gilt Edges. | wharf yesterday morning. Thn{ are determined to.cinch that pen- nant. There is no truth in the report that Lockhead and Shanahan have been re- Jeased by the Gilt Edge management. They are still on the pay roll, and will continue to be so. On Sunday, July 17, the Kohlberg, Strauss & Frohman baseball team will contest with the Watsonvilles at Watson- ville, for the benefit of the Red Cross Society of that town. The game prom- ises to be a good one, as both teams are y evenly matched. The last time they met it took Watsonville ten innings to win the game. DROWNED IN THE BAY.

INTERNE¥ROBBED ATu HARBOR HOSPITAL STORY TOLD BY DR. STRANGE HOLLAND. Stopped in the Darkness by a Tall and a Short Man and “Stood Up.” A. F. Holland, an interne at the Harbor Hospital, reported to Sergeant Cook of the harbor station Wednesday that he had been held up and robbed on the water front by the well known tall and short man who generally figure in robberies. According to Holland’s story he left the hospital, where he was on duty, early in the evening and went up to Market street, were he purchased some stationery. As he returned to the hospital he noticed two men, one tall and the other short, stand- ing between the hospital stable and ‘the Harbor Commissioners’ tugboat house. At the hospital he wrote some letters, and about half-past 10 o'clock went to post them. As he passed the stable the tall man jumped out, grabbed him around the waist and closed his mouth with his hand. The short man reached into Hol- land’s right pocket and took out $22, and then the two ran up East street toward Mission. Holland says ne was dazed for a few moments and walked up toward Market some distance before he realized that he had been robbed. When he made the dis- covery he reported his loss to the police. Holland claims that he had_ altogether $39 on his person—the $22 he lost in one pocket, two in another and fifteen in a third. He says that when he passed the men the first time he had his hands in his ockets and supposes the robbers heard t jingle. —_———— Policy of the New America, by Henry Norman, Special Commic- sioner of vthe London Chronicle, in next Sunday’s Call. — Acted in Self-Defense. 2 The case of John Palmer, charged with murder, was dismissed by Judge Mogan yesterday on the ground that he acted in self defense. On the night of July 2 Pal- mer and E. R. Patterson, a carpenter, who ‘Ilved in the same house, 1155 Folsom street, had a dispute and Patterson hit Palmer on the head with a club, fracturing his skull. Palmer closed with him and threw him over the balustrade, causing his death a few days later. Palmer was de- fended by Attorney Caldwell, who had been requested to do so by the Judge. on a sult 4f blue | Shooters Are Promised the Best Sport Enjoyed in Many Years | Owing to the Abund- ance of Birds. \ Under the game laws of California, the open season for shooting deer and doves is ushered in this morning. Many sports- | men are already in the fields, but the ma- | jority from this city will not leave until | this evening or to-morrow. Not for many years has a season given promise of such royal sport, | signs known to huntsmen fail, the men who go far afield will return with game bags filled to repletion. If reports are to be believed the coun- try is teeming with doves and deer. The past winter was a mild one. There was but little snow in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, so the deer have multiplied. The light rainfall caused the small water holes to dry unusually early this year with the result that the deer will be found | in greater numbers near the large streams than heretofore. The membhers of the Country Club and Mt. Tamalpais Club in Marin County are promised excellent sport by their game- keepers, who have been zealous in the preservation of the game under their charge. Many parties will plunge at once into the fastnesses of Mendocino County, which is practically the home of the deer in this State. A party made up of Her- bert Spencer, Charles Dietz, Lloyd Eaton and F. Hoflling left on Thursday for Round Valley, Mendocino County. J. Cadman will put his sporting for- | tunes to the test in the field some forty miles above Ukiah. Paul Delmas and Whgam Berg will enjoy the sport pro- vided by the Mt. Tamalpais Club pre- serves. John E. Richards and son left on Wed- nesday for Shasta in quest of deer. Judge W. W. Morrow left on Tuesday for Trinity County, and will be ready for the elusive deer when the season is ush- ered in this morning. Dr. C. W. Hibbard, accompanied by his family, and George Hibbard leave to-day for the Geysers. They will divide their attention between deer and trout. Doves are to be found in abundance throughout the greater portion of the State. They are particularly numerous in the district about Walnut Creek, Dan- ville, Pleaeanton and Livermore. Merced and Tulare counties will provide more than their share of the birds, while to the north, near Vacaville, the shooter’s only complaint will be that the birds are too numerous. There are a number of fresh water springs in this vicinity from which the doves cannot be driven away. Dan 0’Connell clears up a Sausa- lito mystery, in next Sunday’s Call. ———— Could Not Stand Disgrace.
