McDonald Wi game to the end, taking a lot of { punishment and showing wonderful apt- | ftude for boxing. He showed his lack of | knowledge of ring tactics and that, with | one fatal mistake he made, lost him the honors of possibly a brilllant victory. | When the two combatants discussed | {the rules to govern their meeting Mc- ! Donald insisted in being allowed to hit inches. This was his mistake, 1ded to insist on hitting in the | breakaway, an entirely different method | of attack. He seemed a mere novice in | i | the the hands of Green for several rounds, | as the latter hammered him about the ribs whenever they clinched. This went | | on until the third round, when McDonald | learned the trick, but much damage had ’been done and some of his vitality must have been slggod by the body punching | | he bad received. | The third round was in the nature of a | | rough-and-tumble fight with Referee Mc- | \Gxnfey trying to ae?n.rale the two big| men. McDonald landed one effectiveblow, | | & heavy right on the head which took | | some of the go out of Green for a time. | | The second round was give and take, the | reen some body. | | fighting being fast throughout. tired in the third round, takl terrific punches on the head a: LR R R R R R S A S S S S This was McDonald’s round. The pace slowed a little in the fourth. The begin- ning of the end appeared in the fifth. Green landed a right swing which caught McDonald and dazed him. He went down | from a right on the jaw and barely lasted the round out by clinching. e came back in the sixth and last round with & | little dash, but a left on the head left him helpless. His defense was game and he held on the ropes dazed. He was knocked down an as he was being unted out his seconds threw up the sponge. It was some time before he re- covered sufficiently to leave the ring. Green fought a great battle and showed himself an improved boxer since his last appearance in the ring. R Joe Bell gained the decision over “Kid Johnson in the opening bout after eight rounds of the most stubborn fl!hfl!llg., Each man in turn had a lead over gpponent, but could not end the battle. Bell was the aggressor through the reater part of the bout. Early in the gfil round he caught Johnson a right on the head, dazin down. It looke im and knocking him to be all up with John- son, but after he was down three seconds the bell rang signaling the end of the round. Bell proved a hard hitter in the second round and took much of the steam out of J son’s blows. The boys fought all over ring in the third round, standing up and exchmgln§ blow for blow. In the fourth round Johnson hit repeatedly in the clinches and was warned by Referee McGinley. The fifth round opened slowly, but toward the end it was desperate fighting. Bell bled from nose and mouth from Johnson's frequent jabbing. A slight trickle of blood from Johnson's right ear showed where Bell had landed on him. It seemed that one or the other of the men would go out repeatedly during the last three rounds, but neither had a punch to do the work. A head-on collision between runaway locomotives could hardly make a greater commotion than the clash in the first round of the bout between Charles urs- ton and Charles Fredericks. Thurston tried to bring the trouble to an end at once, but was unable to do so. Fredericks was in.me although badly cut about the mouth and nose. The bout was stopped temporarily in the fourth round because of a clalm of foul made by Fredericks. Referee McGinley decided there had been { no foul and the men fought the eight rounds, Thurston getting the decision. Fully 2000 spectators were at the ring- side, crowding every Inch of floor space. Nearly as many more were turned away, the police refuslng to allow any more in the building. The crush was so great | that extra police were sent for to keep ‘(he crowd in check. ——e———— | HALL OF JUSTICE SURPLUS. | Architects Say There Will Be a Snug | Sum Left. The BSupervisors Bullding Committee received yesterday & communication from Shea & Shea, architects of the Hall of | Justice, stating that the building wouid be ready for occupancy April 15 next. | They recommend that certain changes be made, s0o as to accommodate the in- creased requirements of the departments that will occupy the building. There is now in the cil¥ treasury the sum of $17,- 600 available for the completion of the building, and the architects think tbat only $10,000 will be required, thus ‘eav- ing a net surplus of $7600. e California Silk Culture Society re- quested the committee that it be awarded the contract for making a municipal flag, should the Mayor’'s suggestion in that re- gard be favorably considered.

RS i The transports Sherman, Indiana and Pathan arrived yesterday from Manila, via Nagasakl. The Sherman and Pathan | were released from quarantine during the afternoon and anchored off Folsom street. | On ! . | P e e e e O#MMM+MMM+0WHV*MM+MM*W+QW Transports Sherman and Logan Racing to San Francisco. the Sherman there were 15 cabin passen- gers, 85 sick soldiers, 4 prisoners, 4 men who ran away from the Meade in Naga- saki but who were recaptured soon after that vessel eailed for San Francisgo, and the remains of 8 soldlers. The Pathan brought neither passengers nor freight, while the Indiana has aboard the remains of 123 dead soldlers. There was general rejolcing aboard the Sherman when it was learned that the transport Logan had not arrived in port. The two steamers left New York together and, by avolding two ports of call, the Logan made the run to Manila in 3 hours better time than the Sherman. Captain Grant of the latter vessel insists, how- ever, that in actual steaming time his vessel beat the Logan two hours. There has been more or less discussion over this matter for some months back, 50 the crews of both transports were more than pleased when both were sched- | uled to sail for San Francisco on the the Logan to follow her at § p. m. winy to the number of sick men he had aboard, Captain Grant took the outside passage and the southern route, while the Logan sailed by way of the inland sea and the great circle route. The distance by the southern route is considerably longer than that by the great circle, but the Sher- man made the run in 17 days and reached port first. Chief Engineer George R. Kingsland of the Sherman was sick during the first three weeks after the vessel left SBan Francisco, but he was as well as ever almost when the transport left Manila He was determined to make & good run home and every engineer in the ship was of the same mind. In consequence the Sherman’s engines made more revolutions an hour with the poor Nagasaki coal than they did with the best kind of English fuel on the passage down. The Sherman never before came {nto port In such a spick and span condition, and Captain Grant says the voyage hus been most pleasant throughout. To Chief Officer A. ‘Walton and Chiet Steward J. J. Fallon is mainly due the yachtlike appearance of the big trans- port. Everything alow and aloft was in he very best of order, and officers and men are on the best of terms with each other. After leaving here sixty-three days ago the Sherman went to Honolulu. The bu- bonic plague was prevalent, and Captain Grant shaped his course for Guam. Dur- ing the run to Guam measles broke out among the colored troops, and when the island was reached communication with the shore was prohibited. Years ago a case of measles was landed on Guam and it almost destroyed the native population. The hospital ship Yosemite was in port while the Sherman was at Guam. There was twenty-eight cases of typhold fever among the crew. As the collier Brutus had left Guam for Manila with the disabled transport Vic- toria in tow a couple of days before the Sherman arrived, the Sherman had to proceed on her way without getting any coal. Manila was reached without mis- bap. The Sherman made the round trip in sixty-three days, being the third -time in succession she has fertormed that feat. This is a splendid record and stamps the ve;‘sel“sst one of the finest transports in the fleet. Thepclndinnl and Pathan left Manila and Nagasakl six days ahead of the Sher- man, and both made port a few hours after her. The cabin passengers on the Sherman : Major W. S. H.

A qualifying round over eighteen, 'm°§3.x yllqy, was first held, and the eight Jowest scorers in this entered the opening round of the cup contest. The eight who | qualified were Miss Alice Colden Hoff- man, Mrs. H. C. Breeden, Miss Maud Mulline, Miss Sarah Drum, Miss Caro | Crockett, Miss Mary Scott, Miss Edith | | McBean and Miss Ella Wilcox Morgan. The winners in the first round were Miss M.

Hoffman proved victorious over Mrs. H. C. Breeden. In the final round Miss Maud Mullins was 3 up on the first nine holes, but on the second nine holes Miss Alice Hoffman was § up, or 2 up on the| eighteen holes. Miss Hoffman's name will | accordingly be the first inscribed on the Council's cup and she also takes a small | silver replica of the large trophy.
