‘THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MAY 22, 1899 QUARANTINE WAS » EVADED DESPITE FFICIAL ORDERS AL Gaelic’s Captain and Pilot the Culprits. e | the outcome will probably of tain Finch, maste kine; the be the arrest of the ship, ptiot, for dis< of the State Quara before Dr. Chalmers and Erskine arrested Gaelic without permis- on, but as the steamer had been grant- ed pratique by the Federal Quarantine Officer the two skippers were exonerated by the State courts. When the Gaelic arrived from the Ori- ent last Saturday afternoon Dr. Chal- mers, the State Quarantine Officer, boarded her off Black Point. He at once notified the captain and pilot not to cross the quarantine - line tnth he had exam- ined ‘the ‘ship’s papers and the Officer. Onc had Captains Fin for docking the sen- T & gers. Dr. Brooks, the Federal Quaran- tine Officer, was nowhere in evidence, and Finch 'and skine, ignoring the State officer, 1 search of him.

FRANCISCO YACHTSMEN HAVE SPLENDID SPORT e Big Schooners Make a Pretty Race. e AGGIE JUST BEAT LURLINE| | —_— | SLOOP NIXIE PROVES HERSELF | A FAST SAILER. gty A Novel Method of Awarding Time Allowance Which Rendered Yes- terday’s Trial of Speed Interesting. Vi tors who to Sausalito went ¢ even by the earliest ferry boats over = wondered what in the world had become of the fleet of yachts general- ly to be s at anchor In front of the San Franc o Club house. Only three boats remained—Dr. A. W. McKenzie's sloop Sappho, G. T. S. White's sloop Will o’ the Wisp and W. M. Edgell's little yawl Dulce. All the other craft had sailed up to Vallejo on Saturday afternoon or even- ing and anchored in the channel well above the ferry slip, In readiness for the trial of speed held yesterday. The event n which is novel in the Bay of San Francisco, and which winly proved v interesting. Hith- or races the yachts have crossed the starting line as soon as pos- sible ¢ the firing of the signal gun for their cla and as they neared the finisht point it was quite impossible for the spectators to tell which boat had | i eie D T I S D P S P o4 b+ - ® o ) D T e i o B e S S S e S S e T = ) CLOSE-HAULED IN SAN PABLO BAY.

The last-named went weu out before pulling about, and crossed the line at 5 minutes and 18 seconds past 3 o'clock. Lurline followed 2 minutes and 5 seconds later. On corrected time Aggie, which received 2 minutes and 39 seconds from Lurline, won by the narrow margin of 1 minute and 13 seconds. Ramona crossed the line 15 minutes and 30 seconds after Lurline. Nixie won the pennant for the yacht crossing the finishing line first, and Aggie received the pennant for the boat making the fastest time down from Vallejo. The first of the small boats to finish was A. Sutherland's Catherine, which was iv.- lowed by Commodore T. L. Hill's Cygnus, E. C. Bartlett's yawl Frolic, Wood's sloop An%ela._ J. R. Savory’'s sloo~ Juanita, and R. S. Bridgeman’s Thetis, in the order in which they are named. The schooners Virginia and White Wings, the yawl Ripple, and the sloops Aeolus, Will O the Wisp and Sappho did not-start. The schooner La Paloma, the yawl Phyllis, the cutter Folly and the catboat We're Here were distanced. The results are shown in_full in the table. W. M. Edgell and J. Kitterman officiated as jud%r‘s; Commodore C. H. Harrison was referee; Dr. V. P. Buckley acted as | timer at Vallejo, and R. R. 'Hommedieu as _timer at the club house in Sausalito. The results of yesterday's race leave the question of supremacy between the Aggie and Lurline unsettled, and show_that no boat in the bay can give the Nixie the time allowance to which the rules entltle" her and beat her. It is likely that later | in the season the big schooners will meet again in a trial of speed. FOR THE SOLDIER DEAD. James A.

'These wells have been running for vears and in the hold of the Alaska are 400 barrels that are to be filled with the crude petroleum and brought to San Francisco as ample of the stuff. As soon as the wells are located a house will be bullt and provisioned and one of the party who goes north on the Alaska will remain there until next season. If every- thing is favorable a plant will be taken up next year and the shipment of ofl to San Francisco in large quantities will be- dain | vartous really won. Even the judges and officlals did not know the result until elaborate calculations of time allowances, starting time and finishing time had been made. In yesterday’s race the time allowances were calculated and were given to the boats before they started—the smallest boat started first, then the next gmallest and so on, until the largest b in the fleet was reached, which cros: the starting line last.
