Tobin—This general ordinance would not interfere with our ordinance. To my mind they don’t clash at all. Stafford—I think we ought to dispose of it without any recommendation &t all. Reed—Do you mean to let it go before the board? Tobin—I think it is a good bill and it will not hurt us at all. It will close up the poolrooms at Los Angeles, Sacra- mento, Sausalito and other bucket-shops. It is a good bill so long as it does not hurt us. Braunhart—The Oakland people are hting it, I am told, because if it were passed it would reg side. proper thing to do is poolrooms in_cities. | "Mayor Phelan—Are there any poolrooms open? | Braunhart—Yes; | clandestinely.

This was done immediately after the passage of the Horton law. | They will pay for the privilege of selling 0ools as if it were an open book. The fow does mot restrict them at all. Stafford—It seems to me that we would take the safe side by simply refusing in- dorsement. Braunhart—The people of Sausalito are greatly interested in this: and Belshaw Is a very earnest gentleman. The bill is uncerfain, though. Braunhart—They ought to limit rlclng. That is the only way to solve the prob- lem. Tobin—How can people go to Sacra- mento and have a law passed in the face of the control Burns has up there? Mayor Phelan—The Legislature some- times will do a good act, if asked to. Braunhart—I think the Senate is a very good body. Tobin—It certainly would be a good hing if they limited racing in this town o thirty days. Braunhart—The raflroad is greatly in- terested in the racing e. The people who frequent the track across the bay ride to and from the ferry and crowd the hoats dafly. You won't find any man who is considered a railroad member vote for | anv bill restricting racing. Tobin—TIf there i= any doubt T will vote | for the bill §f it will shut up poolrooms, | btit T am opposed to it if there is any in- tention to_open Ingleside and allow pool selling on Market street and all over town. | Braunhart—Would we permit open pool- rooms in this town? Tobin—That fc just the question. They re afraid that if they open Ingleside the egzislature might pass a law allowin thirty days' racing in any county. I | would give Tanforan and Ingleside thirt; |days each and Oakland would only gel thirty days. T sympathize with the peo- ple of Samsalito. who are trying to close the poolrooms there. I move that the recommendation be indefinitely postponed upon the ground that we have no assu ance that this bill will not be used to open poolrooms in San Francisco. Braunhart—Are you not in favor of a limitation of the racing season? 7/ The | I B e e 2 e e e 2 1 4 NE ACTION ON BELSHAW’S POOL-SELLING ACT They Decide Not to Indorse the Measure Upon the Ground That It Might Defeat a Munieipal Ordinanece. horse eat horse. | ordinance, | I | ney | we recommend that action be indefinitely — Thurston is the same hardy youngster, full of physical strength and muscular pliancy.

The Puppy’s Work and That of Lady Said to Bs the Best Done at Any Derby During This Year. e WwW. HIBBARD. BY C, Speclel Dispatch to The Call HOTEL DEL CORONADO, Jan. 17.— The Pacific Coast fleld trials came to a successful conclusion to-day and the last stake was finished in time to allow the owners and spectators to reach the hotel | at 5 o'clock p. m. The all age stake was decided this morning after three braces of dogs had been run. The winners in the first and second were the same as in the derby, excepting that their positions were reversed, Peach Blossom taking the first and Lady the second position. Many ex- perts are of the opinfon that after the race put up by these puppies thig morn- ing, added to the excellent work done in the derby, they are two as high class | puppies as can be found east or west. Judge Johnson gives it as his opinfon that their work has not been beaten in any derby during the last year. The running was as follows: Lady-Peach Blossom—The first point in the heat was secured by Lady, but her work was not equal to that of yesterday, while Blossom's was considerably better. She was more decisive In her point. work better style than Lady | throughout the race. Blossom got the next point and followed it with another. Lady pinned the next single and was fol- | lowed almost immediately by Blossom with another point in full view of the spectators. Lady honored this point and the picture drew applause from the crowd. Just as they were called up Blossom made another point and-Lady a back, but (h!si was probably not recognized by the judges. Cuba of Kenwood-Verona Cash—This heat was devoid of much interest and the only good plece of work was a bevy point by ‘Cash in the open fleld. Cuba seemed Off color and showed no form whatever. | Cuba Zeep-Merry Heart—This was the | last heat and resulted in two points for Merry Heart and one for Zeep after he The judges' decision was W. n | Arsdale’s Peach Blossom first, J. E. Ter-| ry's Lady second; Stockdale Kennels'| Cuba Zeep and Albert Betz's Merry Heart divided third. Members' stake—This stake is one in which any member of the club may enter his own dog, but-he is required to handle | him during the running. The decision of emed extremely unpopular, as it was the opinion of those present | that a serious error was made in not placing Tod Sloan’s Vi first instead of giving it to Maggie F. Vi was down three | times and ran without an error. She was steaday to wing and shot and showed quisite nos Maggie F in all her heats was uncertain and unstead she broke in on flush and shot and on several points no birds were found. The running of “Merr; Heart was handled by Albert Betz. Vi wus handled by Tod Sloan. Merry Heart secured the first point after a short run, | then Vi pointed glr(—\‘tl)' in front of the teams and was steady to flush. A few feet away she drew to another point and | this time Sloan killed the bird, which Vi | under control and at one time disappeared | and his owner was compelled to mount & horse in order to find him, which he did after a few minutes. Maggle made one | point where a bird was found, but two or three where none could be raised. Senator’s Trinket, handled by J. W. Flynn; Petronella, handled by W. 8. Tevis—Neither dog was accustomed to his | handler and no points were made during | the heat. This ended the first series. | Second series—Vi-Maggle F—In this heat one point was recorded for each dog, but outside of this there was nothing done, as birds were scarce. Petronella-Merry Heart—The only point made in this heat was made by Merry Heart, while Petronella showed no dispo- | sition to point even Lhough birds were plentiful. In spite of the fact that three | dogs in this stake had points and backs | to their credit and that Petronella had | none she was again ordered down with | Vi. Sidan’s dog did a nice piece of work in this heat, pointing a running bird, roading it for some distance and then | pointing stanchly and remaining steady when the bird wasflushed. The judges' decision was: P. D. Lin- ville's Maggle F first, Tod Sloan's ¥'| sec- ond, Albert Betz's Merry Heart third. Champion stake—This stake was run with only two dogs—Stockdale Kennels' | Cuba of XKenwood ani W. W. Van A dale’s Peach Mark. Neither dog seeme in first-class condition and this was es- pecially true of Peach Mark, which, after the first few minutes, ran listlessly until the end. This stake i1s run in two-hour heats and tells heavily on ‘any dog not in perfect condition. No rest i{s allowed except for the actual time necessary to water the dogs. During the first hour's rlmmnfi Cuba showed little form, bur from that time on began to improve and seemed to grow better until the end of the race. His styvle and speed were bet- ter and his points more snappy. Peach Mark secured the ereater number of oints, but her lack of speed was against er. Her slowness was a matter of sur- prise to the spectators, as in all of her previous trials she nad shown fine form, and it was plain to all that she was not herself in to-day’'s race. First, Stock- The judges’ decision was: dale Kennels' Cuba of Kenwood. This finished the eighteenth annual trials of the club. It was declded at last night's executive meeting to hold the next trials _at Coronado providing that Man- ager E. 8. Babcock cuts down all the heavy brush that has interfered with the running of this year and otherwise places the grounds in perfcct condition. This he has agreed to do. An abundance of birds has been found and the manv con- veniences regarding hotel accommoda- tions, livery and the proximity of the ounds have greatly pleased the mem- 8. SUPERVISORS OPPOSE McCOY-SHARKEY BOUT Police Committee Cites Managers of Twentieth Century Athletic Club to Appear Before It. The Supervisors' Police Committee de- cided yesterday to cite the managers of the Twentieth Century Athletic Club to apear before it regarding its contemplated exhibition between Sharkey and McCoy. The members of the committee expressed themselves as opposed to allowing the bout to take place on account of the al- leged crookedness of the two pugilists and if the fight is not called off the permit granted to the club for next month may be _rescinded. The application of the Columbla Athletic Club to give a professional boxing exhibi- tion during March was denied, as the club ;}1& not yet paid its annual license of Lmdne Ll e ‘Walcott Loses on a Foul. HARTFORD, Conn., Jan. 17.—Kid Car- ter of Brooklyn was given the decisfon on a foul over Joe Walcott in the nineteenth round of their fight to-night before the Empire Athletic Club. Walcott held Carter and struck him in the face when the referee was separating them. Carter had the better of the nght, except in the seventh, tenth and thirteenth rounds. Walcott nearly had him out in the tenth round, when the bell saved him. i 57 et Tommy Ryan Wins.

"TRIM FOR THE CONTESTS TO-NIGHT FAVORITES TAKE EVERY RACE ON THE CARD AT OAKLAND BUT ONE The Light Outsprints Her Field First Time Out—Sweet Caporal Wins, Heavily Played. HERE was no complaint at the doings or actions of the favorites at Oakland track yesterday. The track was éuppy, notwithstanding which five of the six first choices finished In front. No particular jockey shone to any advantage, although ‘“Monk" Coburn did conclude the exercises by cap- turing the last two races on the card. It is perhaps useless to add that the attend- ance was large and that Mr. Caldwell was in fairly good form with the flag. The veteran starter has not been seen at his best during the present meeting. If he would pay a little more attention to the favorites while at the post there would be less comment. Of course first cholces are not entitled to a ‘‘shade”; just an even break, that's all. 1t most assuredly looked, at the weights, as if Free Lance should carry the most support of the seven starters in the open- ing seven furlong run, and Harry Stover's horse closed a 3 to 2 favorite.” The big fellow had Mounce up, and after leading the last half won easily from Grand S)x:‘cll‘iem. the second choice. Mike Rice ran third. Although Gold Lace was highly touted to win the five and a half furlong scram- ble following, the smart money went in on The Light. The Montana bred filly, owned by Hughes & Elllott, was backed from 7 to 5 down to 7 to 10, and won, rid- den out by Dominick. Fighting it out for the place, Ting-a-Ling, a 40 to.l chance, got the decision over . obyleix L, a 200 to 1 shot, by a nose. Gold Lace swerved per- ceptibly the last sixteenth, finishing in fourth place. Burns & Waterhouse took the two-year- old dash with the speedy Dorene. The Torso filly was backed to 1 to 2 favoritism, and.getting away in advance of her field was never headed. Driving hard, Larghetta snatched the place from Lou- welsea by a neck. Close on this came the victory of Oppo- nent, first choice for the mile and a six- teenth selling affair, O'Connor had the leg up on the consistent little chestnut horse, and it took desperate urging to overtake and down Sir Rolla a length. The winner always had first call in the bet- ting, finally going into the starter's hands a 7 to 10 favorite. Wax made a bluff of it for a quarter, then retired to his cor- ner. He has bad legs and carrled no stable money. While Rollick was the selected and pre- ferred one for the fifth recital, it was plainly apparent that Maggie Davis was not to be despised. Coburn was carded to ride the “mare, and he h: her in front almost from the jump. Rollick and Bab had it nip and tuck for the place, but Maggie reached the stand first by five lengths. J. Miller on Bab did not get away from the post well, neither did he use the best judgment, all of which mili- tated against the filly’s chances. “Doc” Btreet's fast mare, Sweet Cap- oral, carried the sharp support in the closing six furlong spin. Backed to 13 to 5 favoritism, she led from start to finish. Dominick on Nullah disposed of Handi- capper for the place. Conditions and Weights.

The aquatic entertainment given by the Lurline Swimming Club last night proved a disappointment to several thousand peo- ple who were unable to gain admission to the Lurline Baths. It was an invi- tation affair and the mistake was made of issuing too many invitations. The street doors were closed whep it was thought that a sufficlent number of peo- ple had been allowed in to comfortably flll the gallerfes around the swimming tanks. When the galleries were packed to overflowing there still remained fully 500 men, women and children in the lobby. The doors leading to the tanks were closed against them and they could not get out of the bullding, as several thou- sand people were clamoring at the street doors to gain entrance. A telephone message was sent to the City Hall for additional police assistance. A squad of policemen arrived a quarter of an hour later and it was only with the greatest difficulty that they sicceeded in clearing a passageway so that the front doors could be opened to permit of the people in the lobby being released. The outer doors were again closed and the disap- pointed ones, after waiting around for a time In the hope of getting in, returned to_their homes. The first number on the programme was an illuminated minuct under the direc- tion of J. des. Twenty-four mem- bers of the club entered the swimming tanks with Japanese lanterns on, their heads. The lights in the bathiiouse were lowered as thc swimmers went through the figures. The effect was pretty as the many-colored lanterns passed and re- passed over the water. The 100-yard race for the championship of the coast was a source of disappolnt- ment to the swimmers and audience. The starter fired the pistol before all of the contestants and race judges were ready. Among those who dropped into the wa- ter was H. A. Wideman of the Lurlines, who holds several coast champlonship rec- ords. He crossed the tank and was on the way back to the starting point before the recall was sounded. The men were again lined up, but Wideman refused to compete. He sald that it was too much to expect of him to go in against the men who had remained at the scratch and not exerted themselves. He stepi to one side as the pistol again sounded. The other six contestants sprang into the wa- ter with Scott Leary of the olymxic Club in the lead. Leary retained the lead, making the distance in 1 minute 9 sec- onds, with E. C. Bonifield of the Lurlines a close second. was so much dis- THE CALL'S RACING FORM CHART. ——ee OAKLAND RACETRACK, THURSDAY, JANUARY 17.—Weather fine. 1660.” FIRST RACE—Seven furlongs; selling: three-year-olds and up; purse, $0 Track heavy. wPEl T J—— Betting — Index Horse, Age, “’el[ht.’?llfil. % % Str.
