Sixty thousand dollars is the sum that A. F. Stander clalms to have lost in a deal in Algol copper stock, and he s now seeking to have the Grand Jury indict the late directors of the company.

He came back from Alaska and was so well pleased with the work done that, although he at first sald he would put no more money in copper, he later bought 17,000 shares from Getz and 3000 from Schimmel at $2 aplece. This was tk private stock, and of course they did not pay the money to the company. ~ This was in violation of au agreement t the directors had made %o pool their stock and not to sell until the mine was fully developed, so that the stock in the treasury could be disposed of and some m raised. Before makin, this second buy, however, Stander visite the mine and saw what had been done. Selby's certificates show what the ore is worth and the shafts at the mine show what developing has been done. ““As soon as Stander got the control of the stock he.at once elected himself pres- ident and now has all the books showing what has been accomplished. It is true he put $60,00 into the mine, but he has the option and the stock and purchased on after a thorough investigation. There is nothing shady about the deal, he made the mistake of buying from viduals instead of from the treasury of the company.

Nothing but victorfes roll along the way of the Fireman's Fund Insurance baseball team. Yesterday at Rec ion grounds they put the University of California nine under several feet of damp earth and cel- ebrated afterward over the funeral. A week before a corporal's guard saw the game between the insurance men and Stanford. Half a corporal's guard was present at the game vesterday, freezing | for the lack of baseball thrills that a slow | and uninteresting game made Impossible. | Eleven times the Blue and Gold men were gulity of baseball crimes, and they were punished by a bitter defeat. The first part of the game showed the Blue and Gold colors in a brief spasm of advantage. In the first inning two runs | were made, Hamiin and Braley crossing | the rubber. Kaarsberg twirled well enough to prevent runmaking, and Krug was touched up a bit by the collegians. But it was the last part of the game that showed the California team in_its spe- cialty of bewhiskered errors. Kaarsberg was the arch-offender, all due to a mis- | take of vision. Second base and center | field_could not be distinguished apart by the Blue and Gold pitcher and in attempt- ing to catch the runner at second 5= berg would pitch frequently to far center. The one feature of the game was the home run of Braley in the eighth. He hit the ball to the farthest corner of the field, beyond the flagpost. The score is: FIREMAN'S FUND. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. E.

That the Democrats are very much at sea regarding the place the financial ques- ‘tion will occupy in the next campaign was proved by the discussion held at the Monticello Club last evening.

The Sherman | will lose no time on the way, but will | proceed at an average speed of twelve nots an hour. She should, therefore, | make the round trip in a little over two | months. Nineteen members of the Filipino The- | atrical Company, which came up here on the transport Indlana for the Mechanics’ Fair, also went back on the Sherman. This leaves only flve of the unfortunate Aslatics in California and they will be sent home on the next steamer. The steamer Rio de Janeiro took away a very large cargo for the Orient, but only a small passenger list. Among those booked for Hongkong were Edwin Rob- bins and wife. The young couple were the center of attraction on the mail dock as their trip to Hongkong is in the na- ture of a runaway match. Young Rob- bins was quietly wedded to his cousin, Miss M. Miller, yesterday afternoon and the couple then took passage for the Orient. The father of the young man was on the wharf yesterday and did his best to keep the bride and groom in San | Francisco, but they were deaf to his en- treatles and sailed on the Rio. The hospital ship Missouri docked at the Government wharf yesterday. There are some necessary repairs to be ‘made on her, but inside of a fortnight she will| be on her way back to Manila to bring home another load of convalescents. Cap- tain Dillon says that the stories ahout | | his vessel being unseaworthy are abso- lutely without foundation. Another gasoline crab boat was blown up early yesterday morning owing to gross carelessness. The fishermen were | getting_the boat under way when one of them dropped a lighted match into the bilge. There was some gasoline that had leaked out of the tank there and the re- sult was a flayeup that blew a hole in the bottom of the small boat. She began | to settle and the crab hunters got ashore | before the boat finally went to the bot- tom. Later a diver went down and by | means of tackle rigged to the French | bark Canrobert the gasoline boat was raised and will be repaired and ready for sea in.a few days. | The tug Lottie broke her shaft off Arch Rock yesterday and was drifting out to sea when the quarantine steamer George M. Sternberg went to her assistance. The Lottie was towed to Meiggs wharf and later to the Fulton Iron Works, where she will be overhauled and repaired. The bark Alden Besse is having sister keelsons put in and is being otherwise strengthened. As new foreyard is also | being put up and otherwise the sugar| packet is being made as good as new. | The bark Annie Johnson, booked to sail for Hilo, H. L., to-morrow, will carry the | mail for Hawall. The people of the towns on the main island of the group object to having their mail sent by the way of Honolulu so the Postmaster is dispatching it by sailing vessel. | FORESTERS' BAZAAR.
