The asso- on has been In session in St. Louls ar has adjourned to meet again next week in Chicago, when an attempt will be made 1o settle the rate question in a man- ner satisfactory to all the members.

Less than four miles of the gap remain to be closed d all but one of the seven via- ducts have been finished. Vice President H. E. Huntington, Chiet Ergineer Willlam Hood and General Man- ager Kruttschnitt returned yesterday from an inspection tour of the new line and all were well pleased with the pro- gress that has been made and the superior construction of the line. The heavy rains did very little damage to the road, caus- ing but one slight washout, which, in it- uff‘ is good evidence that the road 1s well buiit. Engineer Hood sald yesterday that he hoped to have all the rails lald by Decem- ber 15, If not a week earlier than that date. 2 SWEET RED WINE MUDOLES GAUGER McGowan Looks Upon the Blush of the Vine Bios- som and Is Weary.

Record-Breaking Day in the Great Futurity of 1902. If breeding counts for -anything, the Futurity stake of 1902 will go on record as the greatest event of its kind ever run on any fleld. Recently many of the finest hounds have been mated, anticipating the whelping of puppies in the early part of January, which will make the get the old- est eligibles for this big coursing attrac- tlon. Some of the noted breedings are: Fine Fire to Bed of Stone and Maid of Erin; Fortuna Favente to Siivia and Lightfoot; Glancer to Faster and Faster; Emin Pasha to Maggie N, Lady Thorn- dyke and Forest Queen; Crawford Lad to Minneola and Carmen; Pretender to But- ter Scotch; Magic to Gilla Macree; Con- nemara to Belle of Anderson; For Free- dom to Lady Greely, a_Texas greyhound; Herschel’s Pride to Mayflower; Fetter Free to Daisy Bell, a sister of' Blacke:te; Shylock to Busy Bee, Quiver Arrow and Daisy Crest. The Pasha Kennels have a new candi- date for coursing honors in the sapling, Roberts’ Army, a litter brother of Rival's Answer. The youngster will be started within the next two meets. Julius Horne is the possessor of a 10- months-old puppy which he expects will make a stir when he starts. He s by For Freedom out of Bona, weighs fifty-eight ounds and has been Judged a comer by Pen!hmen ‘who have seen him. H. H. Walker, the restaurateur at Union Park, became a leashman a short time ago by the acquisition of the grey- hound Cora_ Pearl. He was forced into the ranks, having had the courser left with him as security for a small debt and finally being presented with a bill of sale of the dog in settlement of the account. Cora was entered in. the Thanksgiving day stake and drawn-against Old Glory, who was quoted a 2 t0 1 favorite. Waiker had no faith in his hound's ability as a sprinter, but when asked: how much he had played on his kennel to make him- self a thoroughbred, he replied that he stood to win quite a bunch if Cora landed, and in the event of her beating Trade'as dog would stand treat to the extent of a turkey dinner for the boys. Walker gave little thought to his promise until the in- termission. When his patrons commenced to flle out one by one they would pass the counter and say, “This Is on Cora Pearl’s winning.”-Walker smiled in acqui- escence to the first four stand-offs, but they kept coming in such bunches that he soon called a halt. Some one had given the tip and the restaurant was filled with congratulatory feeders. His free custom- érs ate about $12 worth of turkey, Walker hadn’t bet a cent on his dog and Cora Pearl had won her course. Union Park offers a good card of sport for to-day’s and to-morrow’s stake. One hundred apd twelve nominations have been made and many hard courses are looked for. The first train for the park will leave at 10:15 a. m. Sullivan Loses on a Foul.

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Paul Pons, the French wrestler, to-night at the Grand Central Palace succeeded jn putting John Plenening of this city to the boards twice in succession after a most interesting, al- though one sided, wrestling bout. The men wrestled under the Graeco-Roman rules, best two in three falls. Yanger and Herrick Draw. MILWAUKEE, Nov. 30.—Benny Yanger, | the “Tipton Slasher” of Chicago and Kid Herrick of Brooklyn fought six rounds to a draw before the Badger Athletic Club to-night. Both men were on their feet and apparently fresh at the end of the bout. There was no knockdown. CONSTABLES MUST TREAT PRISONERS MORE GENTLY Supreme Court Holds an Officer Who Used Excessive Force in Mak- ing an Arrest. Constables throughout the State will:be greatly surprifed to learn that they can- not assault a prisoner with a club or other weapon with impunity. The Supreme Court yesterday handed down a decision holding that excessive force must not be: used in making arrests. The decision’ was rendered in a suit for damages that is one of the most novel brougnt_before the higher court for re- view. Thomas M. Matheus, constable for the township of Wilmington, Los Angeles County, and his two bondsmen, J. P. Suva and T, Crowley, were sued by Gerry Towle for injurles received at the hands | gt the constable and his deputy, a man atthews. nal‘tn?pp ars that Towle committed a breach of the peace at San Pedro and was taken Into custody by Matheus. The pris- oner became violent and the constable was forced to put handcuffs on him. Towle showed fight and landed on the_consta- bhz's‘!aw and a struggle ensued. Matheus called for aid from the bystanders and Matthews came to his assistance. The struggle between Towle and his captors becam’ so violent that Matheus pulled his pistol out of his pocket -and dealt the risoner a heavy blow over the head, in- ch(lns a scalp wound. The deputy con- stable followe ug this move by shooting Towle in the back. When Towle recovered from his wound he instituted a damage suit against the constable and his bondsmen, and the jury in the lower court gave him a verdiet for $500. . The costs of suit, amouuting to $108, were added. Matheus appealed and the Supreme Court affirmed the judgment upon the ground that excessive force had been used in arresting Towle. e OPPOSE AUTOMATIC FIRE SPRINKLERS Spring Valley Company Officials Ob- ject to Attaching Six-Inch Mains Thereto. The Supervisors’ Fire Committee had under consideration yesterday the ordi- nance providing for the installation of automatic fire sprinklers in buildings and manufacturing plants. Attorney Kellogg of the Spring Valley Water Company op- posed the ordinance because it would re- quire the attachment of six-inch suppl: Mains and meters, which, he said, ‘wonld mean an enormous expense to the com- pany. Frank H. Gould addressed the committee on the advantages of the sprinklers, which he said reduced the loss by fla to ll.)emlnlm:‘l‘rtl. fihl:.f“aulllvm of tl re Department, stronj favored the extingulshers.

This was the maln event at Me- chanics’ Pavillon last night, where a crowd—chiefy in the gallery—gathered to see the National Club’s last pugilistic of- fering. Had there been no knockout this ma‘n event would have been about the slowest, tamest, quietest fistic affair seen here or anywhere for many a day. In| all the sixteen rounds there was hardly e‘nough action to provoke a free perspira- tion. The end came suddenly and unexpected- ly.

When the appli- cation for a renewal of the license was read at the meeting of the commission last night, Sergeant Gleeson read a re- port from the policeman ‘on Market street. It was claimed in the report that Sulli- van was gullty of certain violations of the side door regulations. . Commissioner Newhall promptly moved that his appli- cation be denled. Before the other com- missioners could vote on.the motion, Newhall directed Sergeant. Gleeson to visit the saloon and make a thorough in- vestigation of the reported violations of the side door regulations. Gleeson was instructed to report to the board at its rext meeting and if he finds that the law is being violated it is the intention of the commissioners to refuse to grant a license to Sullivan. The commissioners discussed the appli- cation of the proprietors of the Cafe Royal for a renewal of their license. After listening to the reaaing of the favorable reports of the police officers whose beats take in the resort, Commissioner New- ball moved that the place be allowed to run under the old license until such time as the Board of Supervisors haids down its decision In cases where gambling Is conducted in connection with saloons. Before the motion was considered, Com- missioner Mahoney offered as an amend- ment that definite action be postponed un- til next Tuesday night. . As Commissioner Newhall offered no objection, the amend- ment was adopted. The application of C. F. Kapp, who conducts a saloon at the junction of Golden Gate avenue and Market streei, was denied. A short time ago Kapp was arrested for conducting a nickel-in-the- slot machine and fined $. Commissioner Newhall considered the offense unpardon- able and on his motion Kapp's application for a new license was promptly denfed. He will be cited to appear before the com- missioners at their next meéting and for- mally notified of their action. The application of J. Dierks, who con- ducts a saloon at 228 Fifth street, was de- nled on account of a row which occurred in_the place a short time ago. : It was decided to adopt the new Colt's thirty-two caliber revolver as the regula- tion pistol of the department. Resolutions compelling pawn brokers and junkdealers to flle written reports with the Chief of Police every day ex- cept Sunday, giving a list and description of articles taken in pawn or bought by them, slso a full description of the per- son or persons with whom they deal, as well as their names, were adopted. The reports must be flled before 10 o'clock each morning. The following new policemen, who suc- cessfully passed the civil service exam- ination, were sworn in: Frank de Grancourt, Robert Coulter, Patrick Herlihy, D. M. Rives, W. H.-Clay, P, Foley, Leroy Lgrlng[s Nicholas: Hick B oA DUBDIS WOT EAGER TO COME 10 THIS CITY Willing to Give $1000 to Be Allowed to Remain in Nome. S LR The inquiry into the contempt of Dudley Dubols of Nome reached that stage yes- terday when scme testimony regarding the actions of Dubols himself was se- cured. George A. Bernham, one of the Marshal's deputies, who went to Nome to bring back McKenzle, told how he served upon Dubois an order summoning Dubois to appear and explain his contempt. Du- bois was much disturbed, and a day or so after while the two aeputies were sitting at a table with a man named Orton, Du- bois came and speaking to Orton asked if he knew if there was any law by which he could escape going to San Francisco. Dubols said his business was in such a shape that he could not possibly go, and he sald he would give Orton $1000 if he could find some law by which he could escape from it. Bernham also told of the serving of the warrant upon McKenzie and the executicn of the writs of super- sedeas, He said, too, that when the writ of certiorari was served on Judge Noyes all Judge Noyes saild was that he was sorry the deputies had not a warrant to take him to San Francisco as well. J. C. Barton was the principal witness of the morning. le told how he once heara Noyes say, “If T don’t appoint McKenzie a recelver. who shall I appoint? He has been my friend for twenty yvears, and I will appoint him for every mine he wants. And {f he does not want the appointment I will appoint whomever he will recom- mend.” This was sald one day when Noyes came into a room where were seat- ed Barton, McKenzie and others. It was at the time Noyes' appointments were be- ginning to be talked about. On another occasion the witness heard McKenzie tell Cameron. who had been placed in charge of the Topkok mine, that Cameron was to do everything MecCor- mick wanted him to do, and he himself would see Cameron through. On direct examination Barton told how he had seen a man named Barr bring in some gold from the Topkok mine, and Barr had said there were 127 ounces. Later Barton was told by McKenzie there were but 114. On direct examination the wit- ness told a story of how some of the gold, two sacks of it, was emptied out by Mc- Kenzle, but on’cross-cxamination it was shown that he knew very little about the handiing of the gold by McKenzie, He said McKenzie was looked npon as a dictator and a man with whom every on had to,stand in. 3 Robeft McKlilijcan, ex-Sheriff of Alameda County, was called to tell what he knew of the sentiment of the people In regard to McKenzie and the ring he was In with. He said it was the general opinion it was a queer proceeding to declare that the gold in a claim was in jeopardy ard so appoint a receiver to get it out. It was believed the gold was safer in the gravei banks than it would be in the hands of any receiver. Tt was the opinion of the miners that a man could not get justice in the Neme court because there was a clique, headed by McKenzie and Noyes, that controlled things It was believed, o e icks, Rothinger, DA in Matthewson, Wilitam Hassell, J: 8.
