SURVIVOR DEFEATS GAUNTLET SATSUMA FELL IN WITH EASY COMPANY. Three Favorites in Front at Oak- land—Lost Girl, Superbly Ridden by Mike Hennessy, Won, Heavily Backed. Probably the best of the many good performances at Oakland track yesterday was ‘the remarkable run made by the Riley-Jennie Treacy filly, Jennfe Riley, in the two-year-old scramble. She had shown up well in her former races and Galene, from the Burns & Waterhouse the barrier was released the filly was two lengths behind the bunch. After making many tortuous twists and curves Spencer gradually ran his field down, getting up just in time to beat the good thing, Cho- teau, a head. Galene found the pace too warm, finishing third. The winner closed up ground so fast the last sixteenth of a mile that those occupying seats in the trainers’ stands could hardly believe their eyes when the numbers were holsted. Rain left the track a trifle slow, but not heavy enough to make any difference with non-mud runners. Three favorites succeeded in taking purses. Nick Hall's old gelding, Two Cheers, seems to have lost his usefulness. He vas installed favorite over the ragged lot in the opening mile and a_ sixteenth run and was beaten in hollow fashion by Eppinger. The_latter, ridden by Buli- man, once 5 to 1 in the bétting. If ' Wing, the entry of Tom Ryan, ers in the sprint that followed the money bet on him would have been burnt up. Starting favorite, the brown filly was cut off at the start, but ran around her fleld and won comfortably from Odd Eyes. Crossmalina, coming fast at the end, was a close third. After making such a good showing in ap on Saturday last, the talent picked Gauntlet to beat Survivor in the mile purse run. It proved an unwise se- lection, for Pat Dunne’s colt gn.lloi)ed the entire distance, winning with ease in slow time. Ballista was a poor third, behind the favorite. Bald-faced Satsuma annexed the mile and a sixteenth selling purse. A 4 to § favorite, he took the lead in the stretch and was going_away at the wire. The light-weighted Rosebeau disposed of the miserably ridden Morinel for the place. In the last event, at six furlongs, Lost Girl came out after a long rest and, ably ridden by Mike Hennessy, downed a big field of sprinters. She was at one time as good as 8 to 1 in the ring, and after being ridden hard from the start led Do- lore out a head. The favorite, Amelia Fonso, was third. ot bt L, Track Notes. Frank Farrar and his friends were down good and thick on Choteau, getting 30 to 1 for their money. Farrar & Tuber- vflle purchased the youngster in Montana THURSDAY, last summer, p‘glng $100 for him at the Daly sale, and the opinion was generally expressed that he should have won. f the fog had been so thick that a ‘bunko man couldn’t see a farmer through it, W. H. Martin could not have taken more liberties with Dare II. A repetition of it should earn for the young man a life position outside the confines of a race track. 2 3 L To-Day’s Entries.

The annual meeting of the San Fran- cisco Kennel Club was held yesterday at the Occldental Hotel, with a large attend- ance of the members. Among those pres- ent were: Henry J./ Crocker, Adolph B. Spreckels, John E. de Ruyter, Henry H. Carlton, Willlam Kittle, J. P. Norman, Moftimer Fitch, Robert Bolton, John G. Barker, F. G. Skaife, Fred W. Tallant and W. C. Brown. John E. de Ruyter presided. The first business of the evening was the election of a board of directors, whose number was by resolution reduced from seven to five. he directors elected were A. B. Spreckels, Henry J. Crocker, John E. de Ruyter, Willlam 8. Kittle and J. P. Nor- man. The next proceeding was the re-election of Captain C. B. Knocker as delegate to the American Kennel Club, the nominat- ing speeches being profuse in their com- plimentary allusions to his services. The resignation of Dr. F. W. d’Evelyn was accepted, with many expressions of regret, but it was the only course open to the club, as the doctor has allied him- self to an organization in contravention of the rules of the American Kennel Club. The subject of the bench show was then brought up, and after considerable dis- cussion it was decided that it should be held during the first week in May or as near thereto as practicable. An Eastern judge will be brought out, and the selec- tion will be left tc the judgment of the bench show committee. The election of the bench show commit- tee was next in order, and the cholce of the club rested on the following gentle- men: J¢ de Ruyter, Henrfi J. Crocker, 8. Kittle, J. P. Nor- man and Carlton. A guarantee fund was subscribed by the members present, and the meeting' adjourned. The board of directors convened imme- diately, with Mr. de Ruyter in the chal; The eclection of officers resulted as fol low: President, Adolph B.

MRS. REGAN’S CRY TO HER SISTER ANNIE DEFENSE IN KENNEDY MURDER CASE COMMENCED. A Motion to Dismiss After the Prosecution Rested Is Denied by the Judge. The prosecution in the case of Mrs. Elizabeth Regan, charged with the mur- der of Policeman Kennedy, rested yes- day afternoon and the defense was com- menced. There were only two witnesses examined for the prosecution—Leon E. Stolz and Joe Foran—both employed at Michaelson’s stables on Ellis street. They testified to having often seen Mrs. Regan at the stables looking for Kennedy, and Foran once saw them having a ‘‘spat.” A few days before Kennedy was mur- dered he told Foran that he had a big job on his hands to get rid of Mrs. Regan, and he was afraid she would kill him. Foran admitted that he was an ex-con- vict and went at one time under the name of Thomas Lloyd. Attorney Long moved for the dismissal of the case, as the prosecution had failed to show that Kennedy was got shot in self-defense, but Judge Graham declined to grant the motion. Mrs. Annle Dean, a sister of the defend- ant, was the first witness for the defense, She testified that on the day of the mur- der she left her house on Fairmount street to go to a grocery about a block from 282 Chenery street, and thought she would call and see her sister. She went in by the side gate and opened the kitchen door. After closing the door she heard the noise of a scuffle in the dining room, and Mrs. Regan screamed to her: ‘‘For God’s sake, Annie, come here. Tom Ken- nedy"is killing me.” She ran out - the back way and across the street to ner sister, Mrs. Johnston, and told her that she heard a scuffle and Kennedy was kill- ing Lizzie. Mrs. Johnston ran across the street and witness remained on the back porch of Mrs. Johnston’s house until she returned. Nothing was sald by either about the tragedy. Mrs. Dean was subjected to a_severe cross-examination by Attorney Barrett, but she stuck to her story. She admitted that she sald to Captain Gillen and Bar- rett when questioned by them that the words used by Mrs. Regan were ‘“‘Tom Kennedy is killing me,” but now she was under oath and told the truth. She ad- mitted that some bedding was taken to her house from Chenery street on the night of the shooting, but that was be- cause Mrs. Regan’s little girl went to stay with her. The prosecution will attempt to prove that the bedding was taken from the bed on which Kennedy was sleeping when they claim he was killed, so that all trace of blood, if any, could be wiped out. The case will be continued this morning. HESS WINS HIS SUIT AGAINST THE UNION THE JURY AWARDS HIM A JUDGMENT. As the Rights of Organized Labor Are in Question an Appeal to the Supreme Court Will Be Taken. Fred Hess Jr., who sued the San Fran- clisco Typographical Union to recover $25,- 000 damages for having been forced out of employment by the union, he being a non-union man, has won his fight, at least so far as the Superior Court is concerned. Yesterday afternoon the jury before which the case was heard returned into court and gave judgment in Hess' favor for the sum of $1200. All day Wednesday argument was heard by the court on a motion made by the defendant for a nonsuit. Authority after authority was cited, but the court refused to grant a nonsult, and the defendant put on its witnesses. Then the case was ar- gued and submitted. The jury was out some time, but finally reached the above verdict. The case involved the right of a union to protect itself from what it termed “scab” labor and ‘ratting,” the former being a term applied to a non-union man, the latter being applied to a union man who has refused to walk out when a strike is ordered. It has been held in the highest English court that a union has a right to protect itself and its objects. ‘Whether the Supreme Court will g0 hold remains to be seen. —_—— MARDI GRAS BALL. An Unusual Interest ieing Taken in This Society Event. Soclety has aroused itself for the Mardi Gras ball to be held at the Mark Hop- kins Institute of Art on the evening of 8t. Valentine’s day. Up to date fifty-six gentlemen's tickets and forty-seven la- dies’ tickets have been applied for. This number is far in excess of any demand in the preceding years in which such an entertainment has been given. Work has already commenced on two band :tands.
