Private Meyer, With His Green Trunks, Wins the Half-Mile Race—Incidents of the Day. yesterday morning, with flags fly- ing and headed by their own band, the First Regiment, League of the Cross Ca~ dets, marched down Market street to the ferry and, accompanied by several hun- dred of its friends, journeyed to Glen Ellen, where it held its annual field day and competed for a trophy presented by Mayor James D. Phelan. The trophy was won by Company H with a score of 64; the field and staff came second Wwith a score of 29, and Company B third with 21 points te their favor. he excursion was a great success. Two special trains were necessary to convey the regiment to Glen Eilen. It imme- diately marched to the recreation grounds, where the cadets were dismissed, most of them seeking shelter under the | trees from the bolling sun. Luncheon | was soon finished and at 1 o'clock the | games commenced. During the comesls{ the b: discoursed sweet music, which was frequently Interrupted by the mem- bers of Company H, who were stationed on a hill in the vicinity and gave an en- thusiastic yell every time one of the mem- bers of their company won a race. The time in most of the races was very slow, owing to the bad condition of the track, which had only been built recently for asion.

PATRICK’'S PICNIC. It Was Given by the Ladies of the Parish and Was a Success. ‘“Three cheers for Father Brendan and three cheers for the ladies of St. Patrick’s parish!” The hills near Schuetzen Park echoed and re-echoed with the result of this sa- lute from a leather-lunged youngster. Truly it was a great day for St. Pat- rick’s parish, and no scoffer can decry the scale on which its picnic tn honor of Admission day was carried out. The picnic Wwas & reunion prior to the opening of the grand bazaar fair. The outing was given by the varlous ladies who will have charge of the booths at the fair, and all the proceeds will go toward the expense of opening and decor- ating the booths. As fully 2000 people were in attendance, the financial part of the affair will be a great success. The day was enjoyably spent in games, feasting ‘and dancing.” The merry-go- Results: |1 round ran‘in full blast all day, and Jig stepping was an Important feature of the recreation. Mnn?‘ left the park and wan- dered over the hills in enjoyment of the sights afforded by nature, while others took a trip to San Rafael and back in time to catch the last train. The greatest event among the games was a sack race, which afforded intense amusement to old and young allke. Ed ward Savage shuffled in ahead without a fall. Harry Manning fell twice, but “got there second just the same,” as his youth- fui friends expressed it. The affair was in charge of the follow- ing committees: Reception Committee—Willlam T.

LADIES STRIVE FOR HONORS THE YOUNGER GENERATION BLOSSOMS FORTH. Adams and Weihe and Picher and Freeman Will Cross Rackets This Afternoon—Finals for Ladies. “If the pony team wins this match I will give & luncheon In their honor,” said & soclety matron at the tennis tourna- ment yesterday on the courts of the Ho- tel Rafael. The team referred to consists of the lillputians, Weihe and Adams, ten- nis players and juvenile soclety men. The team won, and they will no doubt get the luncheon with a plentitul supply of tea, which they do not like. The championship doubles tournament of the Pacific Coast drew out every yoangster within a radius of twenty miles, and they played some remarkable tennis. Of course there were excepiions, such men as Plcher, Freeman, Dr. Root, Yale and Cole, the latter of whom those on the inside declare to be past 30, but he looks and always acts as if ne were in the heydey of juveniiity. Then there was the championship singies for ladies, whicn proved by far tne better and mere nter- esting event. Miss Marion Jones of Ne- vada, a daughter of the Sliver Senator, gave California young women an exhibi- ton of first-ciass tennis and waitzed through the home talent for victory upon victory. George and Robert Whitney held the back lines in place and looked critical. They seemed satisfled with everything, and_ patronized the lemonade man fo! sticks. George said, O my, how bum, and his brother Robert N. wanted to know if tennis had dled with their with- | drawal from the fleld of competition. Every tennis crank who had the time at his dispesal and the inclination was there to see tne new generation of racket- wielders insinuate themselves into the graces of soclety and swat balls stuffed with gas. But one man was missed—the attenuated peanut and chewing gum ven- der of the past affairs was not on deck, He asked for a permit to exhibit himself and supply the spectators with confec- tions, but’ General Warfield of the ban- quet brigade said, “No,” and his role w omitted irom the ‘cast. The pony team did the playing and the ladies were happy. Weihe and Adams first met Murdock and Holmes, whom the “stars’’ from across the bay picked as the winners -of the tournament. The year- lings showed that they were not merely the curled darlings of young soclety and they gave their opponents two falls in rapid succession and the hospital corps carried Murdock and Holmes out on stretchers. Then the ponies champed their bits until they met Brown and | Stone in the second match, and their goddess Fortuna did a lot of smiling again. Brown and Stone went under with the band playing in 63, 57, 63 time. Messrs. Picher and Freeman came all the way from Stanford to take the coast honors to Palo Alto. Their first engage- ment was with Dr. Root and Grant Smith. Root and Smith are an improvised | team, never having played together in tournament before i’eflerdny, but after the first set they played together as if they were trained together in harness. he first ret was an easy victory for the cardinal, but the second was the match of the day. The score of 11—9 tells the tale, and that is why Dr. Root will not | pull teeth for two days. If Weihe and Adams are dubbed ‘“the pony team,” the only name that will ap- gy to Fletcher Hamiton and Drummond cGavin is colt. The colts shone for a minute and they administered a solar plexus blow on Hunt and Stark, but when they met Picher and Freeman—the score below will tell what happened. The ladles’ tournament was most suc- cessful from the tennis standpoint, al- though the entries were few. Miss Marton Jones, a player who has met the celebri- | tles of the country on Eastern courts, and who is equal to the best in the land, de- feated Miss Hoffman in a splendld match. Miss Martin defeated both Georgiana Jones and Miss Mason in easy fashion, and will meet Miss Marion Jones to-day in the finals. The scores were as follows: Picher and Freeman beat Root and Grant Smith, 6—0, 11—9; F. Hamilton and_Drummond McGavin beat’ Hunt and Starl 6—3; Weihe and Adams beat Murdock and Nicholson. 63, 6—2; | Brown and Stone beat Roth apd Wright, 6—3, 7—5, 5—7, 6-8; Otls and J. K. Hamilton by default from Bartlett and Bowen; Code and Yale beat Allen and Cook, 6—3, 6—3; Picher and Freeman beat Hamiiton and McGavin, 6—2; Weihe and Adams beat Brown and Stone, 75, 6—1. Semi-finals—Picher and Freeman beat Otls and Hamiiton, 6—1, 6—2; Weihe and Adams won from Code and Yale by default. The finals between Weihe and Adams and Picher and Freeman will be played to-day at 11 o'clock. At 1 p. m. the winners of the tournament will meet the Hardys for the champlonship of the coast. At 3 o'clock the ladies’ finals will be played between Miss Mar- tin and Miss Marion Jones. THREE CELEBRITIES OF THE YUKON COMING One of Them Is “Troublesome Point Campbell,” Formerly of Chicago. One of the oldest ploneers of the Yukon, Pete Wiborg, arrived in the city yester. day and registered at the Commercial. He was one of the seven miners who en- tered the Stewart River country adja- cent to the Yukon a decade ago, opening up the way for other gold seekers to fol- low. At that time little was known of the Yukon, and scarcely anything of the Stewart. Wiborg met with some success in securing placer gold on the Stewart, but not long afterward descended to the Yukon, where he has since been at work. “There are three notables coming out from Dawson on the next boat,” remark- ed Mr. Wiborg to a Call reporter yester~ day afternoon. “They are ‘Troublesome Polnt' Campbell, Bill Liggett and Jack McQuesten. The whole Pacific Coast knows Jack. He was the ploneer trader, the father of the country. Liggett was a poor man up to recent times, but he has now about $175.000. He dug $75,000 out of No. 13 El Dorado, and then sold his re- mnlnin? interest for $100,000 cash. This was a few weeks ago. As for Campbell, he was my partner. He iIs coming out with about ,000, which he recelved for two claims. Campbell was originally from Chicago. He has been in the Yu- kon country for twelve years, and has not been outside during that time. His nickname comes from a difficulty which some of the miners got into on Forty Mile Creek in 18% over a plece of placer ground which became known as “Trou- blesome Point.” " —_————— ROBBED ON A STEAMER. Frank Peterson Claims That W. J. Miller Picked His Pockets. Officer P. A. McNamara arrested M. T. Miller on Marke: street Thursiay at the solicitation of Frank Peterson and lodged him in the tanks pending an Invesigation. Peterson charges the prisoner with hav- ing stolen $50 from him while he was asleep in a stateroom on the steamer T. C. Walker en route to this city from Stockton. Peterson complained to the police of the robbery and gave a description of Miller, who he claimed committed the theft. He was told if he saw him on the street to nou‘l;,y;1 an officer and have him taken into custody. told ltyhe saw him on the street to notify n.nd officer and’ have him taken into cus- tody. lller visited Peterson at his room, 41t Ken.rendy street, last evening, and_ Miller invited him to take a walk. street Officer McNamara was met, and after Peterson had explained matters to a On Market |- him he brought him to the City Prison, where his name was placed on the de- tinue book. Miller claims he first met Peterson at Boise City, Idaho, and later in Fresno, and that he paid the latter's fare from that place to Stockton. They then agreed to come to this city, and took passage on the Walker. Peterson alleges that while en route Miller went through his pockets and relieved him of a $50 bill. When searched at the prison Miller had but $3 in his possession. WILL SHE BE PROSECUTEDP Mrs. Grace Allison of Bain’s Matri- monial Agency Gives Her Dupe Back His Presents.

WILLSON, Local Forecast Official. FASTERN MARKETS. NEW YORK S8TOCK MARKET. brisk cooler NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—There was further drastic liquidation in the stock market to-day at an expense to the price of stocks of be- tween $1 and $2 per share In a great many | cases. Disappointment over the fixihg of the St. Paul dividend at only 2% per cent continued the prevalling Influence, and no attention was | pald to favorable developments or to the in- dications of an easier condition in money. The selling was evidently in the nature of specula- tive profit taking, and came from an element that has persisted In theconfidence that prices were certain of a further advance. A great part of this confidence has been based on the | supposition that the St. Paul dividend would be increased and would awaken general actl ity and widespread outside interest, as was ¢ case with the increase in the Burilngton div dend. There was a short-lived period of firm. ness to prices early In the day on a demand to cover some of the shorts put out yesterday. The movement was encouraged by the failure of the London market to reflect any violent de- ression on account of the St. Paul dividend, ut the advance in prices was met by contin: ued heavy offerings, and by noon the move- ment to throw over stocks was in full force again, and prices were tumbling throughout the list. Early gains in a few special cases were aimost completely wiped out. Among those stocks which have recently been sub- ject to attack on account of individual causes of weakness there was a hesitancy on the gart of the bears at pulling out short lines. anhattan and Brooklyn Transit splcuous examples. position to apply the ultra conservative stand- ard adonted by the St. Paul directors to some other properties which have more liberal dis- bursements of expended earnings and to ques- tion somewhat the integrity of the dividends thus established. The distinctly easier tope of money In the afternoon brought recovery in prices aside from that due to covering by the room traders. How far the easfer tone in money is due to the Increase in new Govern- ment” bonds avallable as security to release cash from the treasury and how far to the contraction of loans incident to the stock mar- ket liguidation itself is not clear. The reduc- tion of the call loan rate to 2% per cent result. ed in the steadying of the forelgn exchange, and a check to the advance of the London money rate. On account of the money rate New York banks continue to lose cash very heavily to the sub-treasury, and the shipments of currency to the interfor show a large Increase over those of last week.

There was an absence of any unfavorable develop- ments in the general situation, apart from the usual reports that corn had heen damaged, while business progress and increasing rail: road earnings were among the good factors of the week.

LONDON MARKET. NTW YORK, Sept. 9.—The Evening Post's London financial cablegram says: Except for Kaffirs and West Australian mining shares, which are booming, the stock markets here were qulet and generally dull to-day. The leading stocks were somewhat depressed by Cretan affairs. Americans were flat on the St. Paul dividend, It is generally be- lleved here that the St. Paul Company could have pald a mueH higher dividend, and the policy of a large carry forward is regarded as a not too hopeful omen for the future.

Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade will say to-morrow: The volume of business is larger than it ever has been. Investors across the water have caught the cue and their purchases of Ameri- can bonds and stocks have been heavy for sev- eral weeks. Wheat has been about 1 cent higher in price for spot, with Western receipts only about as large as those last year for the week. No doubt some farmers have learned that it is poor business to nold back for higher prices, yet very many are doing it, and are making inevitably a more disastrous decline in prices after a time. Atlantic exports for the week have been 2,325,100 bushels, agalnst 4,243,356 bushels last year, flour Included, and Pacific exports 163,092 bushels, against 713,434 bushels last vear. Corn is a shade higher, one esti- mate promising only 1,750,000,000 bushels. Nobody can guess how great the demand for iron and steel products may be a month hence, but the manufacturer has the rare good senso to walt for the actual orders before hoisting prices. So far the advance has been remark- ably moderate, in the average of all finished products only 3.3 per cent from the lowest price this year, while pigiron has risen less than 3 per cent. Orders this week Include 10,- 000 tons of rails at Chicago, 500 tons pipe at Boston, with 16,000 to 24,000 tons coming at Philadelphia; 10,000 tons plate for a Baltimore ship yard and heavy orders for bars, rods and especially sheets at all markets. The sales of wool have been only 2,289,500 pounds at the three chief markets, against 18,- 010,400 pounds for the same week last year, and 8,812,000 pounds for the same week in 1892, The' fecling grows that the prices demanded at the West cannot be maintained, and until wool sells at materially lower prices, the man- ufacturer cannot meet the existing market for goods. Prices for goods do not change, and a number of the mills will shortly shut down un- less the situation improves. Fallures for the first week of September huve been In amount of liabllities $1.111593. Manu- facturing $224,602 and trading $703,991. Failures for the week have been 164 In the United States against 215 last year, and 16 In Canada against 5 last year. BRADSTREET'S REVIEW. NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—Bradstreet's will to- morrow say: Heat and holldays have imparted an irregular appearance to speculative and gen- eral distributive trade this week and therefore to the bank clearing returns, more particularly at the East, but with the arrival of cooler temperature, some Improvement is reported at those markets. Generally speaking, favorable basic features already noted still continue most in evidence and the attitude of quieting confi- dence In future good trade is unabated. Condi- tions In many leading industries, but particu- larly in fron and steel and its various products, of continued and In some cases growing strength, The general level of prices of staples is the highest reached for five years past; railway earnings, favored by the large move- ment of wheat to market, are showing larger gains than have been recently reported, a good export demand for agricultural and manufac- tured products is reported, failures remain at a minimum and reports of poor trade are con- spicuous by their Inirequency. Less favorable crop reports from abroad and good export in- quiry are reflected in a rather steadler tone In- nd R & '|; ’fi(s B now set 3s.. 3 " 106% 445 | 980y % | | Pittsburg . | Cincinnat{ | Detrott | st | Fort W, | Portland, | Portland; | St. Joseph | Grand_Rapids. the week just | | ended and professional Influences were appar- | Philadelphia . wheat and in advanced quotations for ocean freights. Corn continues to experience & weather market, but prospects of yleld are still regarded as favorable. Following the intense activity in the placing of orders for iron and steel in the past few weeks has come a quiet- ing in the demand, but experience of buyers and the very firm, and in some cases, the up- ward tendency of prices, point to the conclu- sion that the lull is due almost entirely to the mills being already heavily oversold. ~Export business has certainly been checked by the ina- bility of American mills to deliver within time limits set, but orders have been placed at the West this' week for a large lot of steel bars for shipment to England. Pigiron remains strong in tone and the firmness of prices is a feature. Southern {ron is in particularly good demand for export and holders readily refuse offers where anything less than the full market price is offered. Talk of a further 25 cents advance comes from Birmingham. Unabated acitvity is reported at Chicago and dry goods shipments cannot be made fast enough. Small but numerous advances in prices of different classes of steel are reported from that city and St. Louls. Several roads are reported to be buying from two to three months ahead of time. Business is active at Kansas City, Omaha, Cleveland, Louisville and throughout the entire Northwest. On the Pa- cific Coast, San Franclsco reports merchants in- terested in developing trade with Hawall. Healthy activity exists In distribution at Port- land, Tacoma and Seattle. Socme check to trade is reported in the lower Mississippl Val- ley, caused by reports of vellow fever and heavy rains on the South Atlantic coast. Hot weather and holidays checked the business in dry goods at New York, but cooler weather has brought an improved spot demand. ool sales have again fellen off at Boston. Cotton goods are quiet but steady and the demand for men's wear woolens is not up to expectations. Buginess fallures {n the United States num- ber 142, against 154 last week, 173 In this week a year ago, 308 in 1896, 213 in 15%, and 233 in 594 B isiness fatlures in Canada number 17, against 23 lust week and 32 in this week a year ag0.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—The Journal of Com- merce says: There is more interest manifested in all lines of California fruits and a better feeling obtains, though there has been no notabls Improvement in prices. The market for Santa Clara prunes is very firm and it is reported that buyers are showing more dispo- sition to take hold at the orices demanded. The demand, however, Is chlefly for larger fruit, which, however, seems to be almost un- obtainable. '~ An increased demand from ex- porters for apricots is reported, but we hear of no important sales. Supplies are light both here and on the coast and very full prices are obtained. For peaches there does‘not seem to be much inquiry, but in view of the limited output this season the market is very firm. FOREIGN MARKETS.

The Liverpool market opened from %@%d higher and increased the galn to from ¥d to 1d soon after business started here. That caused a general rush of shorts to cover, gwith very little wheat for sale, with competition sharp, and bids were gradually advanced. Liverpool showed an advance at the close at from 1%d to 1%d, and it was thought the strength there was in great part owing to further confirmation of Russian crop damage and desire of Russian exporters to close the ssles they had made for September shipment, as reported here yesterday. The market here was active and_broader than for some time back. The market ruled strong right up to the tap of the bell and closed near the highest oint of the session.
