The Underwriters are in a quandary as to the identity of the vessel seen bottom up by Captain Rasmussen of the schooner Louise.

SAND CRABS VICTORTOUS They'Defeat the Famous| Gilt Edges. DONLIN PITCHES SUPERBLY UMPIRE SWEENEY’'S DECISION WAS PERFECT. The Game a Great One From Start to Finish and Was Won Through Opportune Hitting. BY JOE CORBETT. Recreation Park was the scene of a grand game of ball yesterday afternoon, in which the famous Gilt Edges of Sacra- mento met defeat at the hands of the Sand Crabs by the score of 2 to 1. A great crowd—acknowledged by all to be the largest yet seen at the park on a | Saturday—turned out, and testified their appreciation of the excellent ball play by occasionally letting out a few links r vocal abilities, directing their ap- se, however, generally to Mr. Donlin, the new acquisition of the Sand Crabs. The gentleman is not new to the fans, having demonstrated his abilities on a former occasion when acting in the same capacity for the “Florists’ of San Jose. | He was very good on that occasion, out yesterday he was simply great, and to his superior pitching is principally due the Sand Crabs’ notable victory. In nine long yet interesting innings the Gilt Edges were able to connect with his deceptive shoots but twice, and such a performance certainly deserves commen- dation. His wildness at times marred the excellence of his work, especially in the fourth inning, when, with the cushions full, he gave his opponents their only run l}?' glving the ?‘ulsfiqan a h?fifs nui::(g:.’llsfi a Ke! is me on casio! 2 e ool ect himself I doubt the Gilt Edges would have scored at all. He displayed symptoms of being wild at the very beginning, yet managed to do most effective work. Al told, he gave elih( bases on_balls, which is not so good, by-the-by. To offset this wildness, he caused seven of his oppo- critical stages of whether of them did so at very the game. His wildness, hnwe\e'cr, tle consequence, Savi mentioned, for with it he co; ceedingly clever work, not only 1\'} the box, but at the bat and in the field. This cley- er work included a hot drive at Doyle in the second inning, which he beat out, and then instantly stole second through the efforts of as pretty a slide as I have seen s season. lh}l'le crossed the plate shortly after on Fitzgerald's cracking single with the first run of the game. He is an all-round good player, Bng with better control of the ball, would be a “:‘Bry hard nut to crack for any team In the league. His gpponenl. Do{le. itched the kind of a game that would win nine times out of ten, and was also unfortunate, as the few hits made off him were opportune. He was steady and collected throughout, but as I sald Before, when hits were made they came when needed, especially 50 in the eighth iInning when the San Crabs, by a base on balls and a three- bagger, tallied the run that decided the ame. gAnd the scoring of this run was at- tended with a kick which for a moment took on a serious aspect. The Gilt Edges threatened to quit the game, and things in general became mixed, for the decisior of Sweeney was looked upon by a few as in question happened in this manner: With Devereaux on first, Strieb hit for three bases. The ball was re- turned to the plate, and Stanley had it just in time to put his man out, but fell, or rather sat, on the plate. At the same instant the runner slid in feet first. Stanley, In his sitting position, made an attempt to touch him and the umpire called the runner safe. The play was very close, and being undecided went to the club house and interviewed those spectators and players, including Mr. Sweeney, who were in a much bettter osition to see the play than I was, and the opinlons of all agreed that the runner was safe. In view of this fact and the convincing explanations offered I came to the same conclusion, and in consequence consider that the Sand Crabs won a great contest. The game throughout was an excellent exhibition, Toth teams putting forth their best efforts, un)i dofng 8o In a laudable manner. A lightning double play in which Devereaux was the central fig- ure and Peeple’s great one-handed stop caused immense applause. In the field both teams were equal, each having an was of very lit- on the occasion mbined ex- error. The support accorded the pigeh- tirety. The support accorded the mileh ers was of course superb, mnd the game in all ite departments was worthy of the big crowd. The score follows: SACRAMENTO. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. E.

TOOK “KNOCK-OUT DROPS.” Frank Claytct; Tries ia Make a Bluff Good in Judge Mogan’s Court. Frank Clayton, who was arrested a few days ago on Kearny street by Detectives Gibson and Wren while in the company of a well known thief named Doughertv. and in whose pockets when searched two vials containing “knock-out drops” were found, appeared before Judge Mogan yes- terday on a charge of vagrancy. The vials were produced In coupt and Clayton declared that they contalned a mild solution of chloral which he was in the habit of taking before going to bed, as he was troubled with insomnia. To prove the truth of his assertion he offered to swallow the contents of both vials if allowed half an hour between the doses. The Judge consented and Clayton swal- lowed a dose. He was put back in the dock to wait for half an hour before tak- ing the second dose, but in a few minutes he began to squirm, and Attorney Tread- well, who defended him, had to run for sufinr as Clayton complained of the hor- rible taste. At the expiration of the half hour he refused to swallow the other dose. Clayton testified in his own behalf that he had been working as a waiter in the Bohemian Cilub, the California Hotel and in Owen's restaurant on Ninth street. He declared that he did not know that Dougherty was a thief. The detectives testified that Dougherty had used “knock- &u( drops” while stealing from his vie- ms. z The Judge continued the case till Tues- day, when he will give his decision. —_——————————— Fred Bell a Defendant.

MADE A ROPE OF HIS SHEET IS SERVING A LONG SENTENCE FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER. Tried to Kill Sigmund Braverman a Year Ago as Vengeance for a Fancied ‘Wrong. Antone Burgle, who is serving a seven years' sentence for assault to commit murder, attempted suicide in the County Jail at about 5 o'clock yesterday morning. The story of Burgle’s troubles is a long one, and has already been told at some length. In 1895 he rented a store on Clay street, near Kearny, of Louls Braverman and opened a restaurant. His business ‘was a faflure, and he finally closed up his store, just In time to escape a writ of execution about to be served upon him by the Sheriff for failure to pay his rent. A short time later he rented a place at Washington street, where he started an- other restaurant. The fates seemed to be against him, as this business venture also proved a fall- ure, and finally Mr. Braverman. put his bills for rent in the hands of a collection agent. He was unable to realize anything on them and put the whole matter in the Sherifl’s hands. On the afternoon of July 14, 1897, a dep- uty sheriff visited Burgle's place of busi- ness with a writ of attachment. The restaurateur, made desperate by business worrles, declared that he would have his revenge on the son of his ‘‘persecutor,” Sigmund L. Braverman, who kept a jew- elry-store on Post street. The Sheriff's deputy, while not thinking the man in- tended to carry out his threat, thought it wise to keep on the safe side and warn Mr. Braverman. He arrived too late, however, as the duel in the jewelry-store had already taken place, and both men were under a doctor’s care. Burgle got the worst of it, however, and to this day carries two buliets in his body. For a time he was not expected to live, and while on_ his bed at the Recelving Hos- pital made an ante-mortem statement, in which he freely confessed his crime, say- ing further that he had Intended ending his life after he had killed Braverman, but as he had failed he would do so at the first opportunity. Contrary to all expectations, he recov- ered, and on trial was convicted and sen- tenced to seyen years' imprisonment. Since his confinement, while quiet, he has been sullen and morose, Yesterday morn- ing a trusty, hearing a strange noise in his cell, made an investigation, and found that the prisoner had made a rope of his bedclothes, fastened it to a convenlent rojection and was slowly choking to death. He was cut down, and in the fu- ture will be closely guarded. Pressed by Their Creditors. Pr. W. F. McAllister was sued in the Justices' Court yesterday for $12 55, claimed to be due for coal furnished him by A. H. Greenberg. District Attorney Barnes, at present captain of one of the volunteer companies stationed at Camp Barrett, has been sued for $197 75, alleged to be due on a note given by him to the Risdon Iron and Lo- comotive Works November 25, 1806, to- gether with accrued interest at the rate of 3 per cent a month ——e—————— Indorsed Congressman Maguire. The Democrats of the Thirty-third As- sembly District, who are following the fortunes of the Harney-Rainey regiment of the local Democracy, met at Maenner- bund Hall Friday night and perfected an organization.

COURSING THROUGH THE FOG PASHA KENNELS WITHDRAW ALL THEIR CHARGES. Coursing That Should Attract a Large Gathering of Sport Lovers To- Day. Excellent coursing was witnessed yes- terday at Unfon Coursing Park. The hares did not run as strong as usual, but a few days of fine weather and less fog will make a great change in the game little animals which ‘are accustomed to a very warm climate. Then, again, this is the | breeding season and hares never run well | during the summer months. Owing to the death of a sister of Mr. J. H. Rosseter, all of the dogs entered by the Pasha kennels were withdrawn, there- by giving their fortunate opponents a chance to win some of the money at stake. | The short-enders that won yesterday were Obadiah, L. 8. Conley, The Gossoon and Koolawn. g The course between Flying 8uck and Koolawn was not in the least bit close as | the bitch led from the slip, scored first turn and held her game well in hand to | the finish. She stands an excellent chance of catching the long end of the stake, if not put out finally by Rosette. Quiver and White Lily had a sharp argument. The Lily led from the slips, but in a long run up to game gul'\'cr closed the gap and took charge after the first turn, scoring rapidly on her opponent. Many people thought that Quiver had put to his credit the greater number of points, but Judge Bull should know best and he decided in favor of the favorite, White Lily. The winners and losers of the run down are as follows: Open stake; seventy-two entries; result: For Persecution ran a bye; Jester beat Precita Girl; Prince Hal beat Beauty; Obadlah beat | | Ta-ra-ra; Winged Foot beat Bendigo; Vanity | Fair beat Mona: Lady Blanche beat White Wings; Wait,a Little beat Tocoloma; Cavalier | beat The Turk; False Flatterer beat St. Ger- | trude; Skyball ‘beat Minneapolls; Jersey Lily beat Jimmle Cork: Rusty Gold beat Top Notch; Theron beat Lalla Rookh; Rosette beat Johnnle R; L. 8.

The sport at Ingleside Coursing Park | yesterday was of excellent class and held the spectators’ attention until the last brace of dogs left the slips. For an open | stake, where so many crack dogs were | contending, an unusually large number of short-enders scored. The most notable instance was that i1 which LasPalmas, at 5 to 1, beat Granuale, the favorite. J. Dean’s Connemara is the favorite for the stake, with the same owners’ Moon- dyne the second choice, i The day was cold and blustery, and the fog which rolled in late in the afternoon obscured the last few courses from the view of the spectators. The following are the results of the run- down in both the sapling and the all-age stake: Sapling stake—J. Murnane's Wolfe Tone beat J. Dean’s Scout: B. Baum's Belmont Boy beat W. J. Jones' Rustan; .

Thomas Dougherty, a laborer, living on Minesota street, was yesterday sent to the County Jail for six months by Judge Low for cruelty to his two young children. Dougherty is a big, powerful man and was arrested about two weeks ago for battery upon his wife. She pleaded so hard for him that the case was dismissed. As soon as he got home Dougherty chased his wife out of the house and sold the furniture. The children were left to find food and shelter for themselves and one of the neighbors took pity upon them after he found them asleep in.each other's arms on the veranda of the empty house.
