HE backers and followers of Tod | loudest oy Sloan are disconsolate and in the dumps agaln over his latest de- feat. Brown, 9 to 10 favorite for tl Spinster stakes at Tanforan yesterday. The distance was a mile and Edna looked s0 much the best on paper that all, or nearly all of the smart division, climbed aboard. Of the other four fillles entered, Maresa, the half-sister to Howard, ap- peared to be the contender, though Bavassa and Bab called for some scatte - ing support. After the start, Mounce, on Maresa, lost no time in taking his mount out in the lead. ‘At the first turn, J. Mil- ler, astride Bab, tried to squeeze his way through between Bevassa and Maresa, and down in the dust went horse and rider. Maresa soon held a commanding lead, with Sloan, on the first choice, tak- ing matters quietly ten lengths in the rear. Sloan began riding the favorite. He clung to the rafl and less than a furlong from the stand was badly cut off by Henry, on Bavassa. Then compelled to take up and go around Sloan rode with desperation. The wire was too close, the time too short, and though very tired, Maresa lasted long enough to win by a length in 1:42. With the result over the attention of the crowd was attracted to Bab, which still lay stretched out on the track, ently lifeless. It was only a case of knockout, however, the filly being led over to the stable a few minutes later with a broken nose for the veterinary to operate on. Miller suffered a fracture of the collar-bone, which will keep him out of the saddle for a couple of weeks or more. in all three favorites crossed the line first—Edinborough in the opening event, Jerid and Andrattus. ‘Lne betting was brisk enough, even if the flelds had no marked pretensions to class. Harry Stover had Edinborough entered in the first number, a five and a half fur- long sprint,, and the horse was heralded as “the goods.” Backed down to § to 5 favoritism, Burns had the imp. Albert horse in frant from the start, beating out Moringa a length. Mrs. C. was so heav- ily played that 5 to 1 was the best ob- tainable around post time. She showed early speed, but did not carry it very far, Rory Ough, a half brother to Dunbo; and quite a speedy youngster, captured the two-vear-old dash from a big fiel Backed from 10 to 5, Bullman had Rory in front soon as the barrier was released, reaching the judges four lengths before Legal Maxim. Snooze ran a close third. Campbell & Doble’s Florista downed a cheap assortment in the mile for maiden three-year-olds, The filly had the most speed, and after cutting out all the run- ning, lasted long enough to beat Camba- ceres a head. Golden, the 11 to 5 favorite, with Henry in the saddle, never looked dangerous. 2 Asked to turn down a less speedier lot of sprinters, Jerid made a runawa¥ race of the fifth event. Once quoted at 3%, the chestnut horse’s odds were backed down at post time to 11 to 5. Nullah dis- posed of Foul Play for the place. Apdrattus enjoyed an easy thing of it in the first race. Closing favorite over Bernota he won loping. Compass, at 15 to 1, nosed out Bernota for the place. Track Notes.

Miller blamed Henry for his fall at the first turn on Bab. In the stretch Henry deliberately and palpably fouled Sloan on the favorite.

DENVER, Feb. 1.—“Big Fred" Russell, the California heavy-weight, put out Jack McCormick of Texas in less than two min- utes before the Colorado Athletic Assocla- tion to-night. The bout was scheduled for ten rounds, Russell jabbed his right hard to McCormick's mouth shortly after the fight began and this was foliowed by a series of wild swings and clinches. Rus- sell forced McCormick Into his own corner and swung to McCormick's head with his right. The latter doubled up and went down and out. The blow did not seem to have much force and McCormick only waiied for the ten count, when he got up and left the ring without assistance. The spectators were disgusted. Kid Lavelle of Butte, Mont., and a local man named Shoemaker fought five rounds to a draw, as did Buddy ]ans of Denver and Jack Donnelly of 8t. Louls. The sec- ond preliminary was the best bout of the night. ONE OF DEWEY’S MEN NOW AN INSANE WRECK Terrible Events of the Memorabie Day Weaken the Mind of Ed- ward McCartney. NEW YORK, Feb. 1—Not all of the brave men who participated in Ad- miral Dewey’s victory at Manila have had their praises sung and |there are some who have become mental wrecks. One of these was taken to Bellevue Hospital to-day that he may be examined as to his sanity, and his relatives assert that his aflliction dates from that memorable naval engagement. Edward McCartney was 18 years oid when he enlisted in_the navy about fiva months before the declaration of hostill- tles. He was stationed at Ralelgh, and wrote regularly to his mother, sending her 38 out of his wages. After the battle of Manila the money came as usual but no letters, McCartney came home with Dewey on the Olympla and when his mother saw him she knew there was a change for the worse. “The night he came from the reception to the sallors at the Waldorf-Astoria,” sald his mother to The Call correspondent. “‘he acted as though he had been drink- ing, yet I ki ad not. My boy was changed. i mind seaghaunt- ed by scenes of that Jay in Manila Bav. As long as we could we bore it, then we took him to Bellevue. When 1 took him away physiclans said I was too hasty. Then he ran away and became a sallor on the fransport Rawlins, which went to Cuba. He was worthless when he got back home, and wanted to read nothing but bloodthirsty novels, over which he would gloat day and ulght. “Then he be. gan to disturb us at night so we could not sleep and a few days ago he threat-4 ened me. Then I knew my poor boy's mind was wrecked, and for the sake of others, 1 decided he should go back Lo Bellevue.” PRI MRS. CARRIE NATION WRITES TO TOPEKA JOINT-KEEPERS Addresses Them as “My Dear Hell- Bound Sinners,” and Asks for a Conference. TOPEKA, Kans,, Feb. 1.—Mrs. Carrie Nation to-day sent a personal letter to all saloon-keepers in Topeka, warning them to stop their business. The letter was addressed to “The Joint- Keepers of Topeka. My Dear Hell-Bound Sinners. " Mrs. Natlon suggested in the letter that the Joint-keepers appoint a place of meet- ing with her in which the situation could be carefully canvassed and a declsion con- cerning the future disposition of the jolnts arrived at, She intimated that forcibie measures would soon begin if they did not heed her advice and close up. HIAWATHA, Kans., Feb. 1—E. J. Eicholtz, a local druggist, to-day made ublic his determination to destroy all the quuor in his store. This afternoon he emptled a barrel of whisky into the sewer and announced that on Saturday he woud publicly destroy the remainder of his sup- ply of liquors, including several barrels of wines and whiskles. The affair wili be made one of rejolcing, the local ministers and the public having been invited to at- tend. The druggist has concluded that to sell llquor for-any purpose is wrong. . hsed i TRAIN OVERTURNED, BUT PASSENGERS ESCAPE DEATH Rail Breaks and Every Car Is Toppled Over, but No Fatalities Result, DENVER, Feb. 1.—An entire passenger traln was turned over while running fifty miles an hour. The train was dragged three ndred feet, but not one of the twenty-seven passengers was killed, al- though many were slightly injured.

RARE BOXING ON THE CARD hat Runiinis| Olympic Club’s Carnival Im- Hard Hitter and - | R proves in Semi-Finals. . BIG crowd was in attendance last night for the third installment of the Olymplc Club’s boxing tournament. Many of the con- tests were fast and torrid, and in some cases far more interesting than the average professional fistic mill. The battles between James Britt and W. L. Bevert Jr., light-weights, and F. H. McConnell and W. Snailham, bantam- weights, were easily the star events of the programme. Only in one decision did the judges’ | verdict fall to please, the bout between T. A. Rlordan and J. Lundy provoking much dissatisfaction, as Lundy was clearly the better fighter. The opening bout was between Lewis Long, Rellance Athletic Club, and J. Moran, Pacific Athletic Club. Moran was hard as nalls, had Long bleeding from a series of stiff punches, and was entitled to the decision given him. W. J. Leonard, Olymple Athletic Club, and Willlam Kreling, San Francisco Ath- letic Club, hooked up in the second bout. Leonard stood Kreling off cleverly had his eye swelling at the call of time. Kreling had an ugly punch, but couldn't land effectually. A series of straight left Jjabs settled Kreling, and Leonard got the Verdict. James Howard, unattached, met D, Dangiger in the third number on the pro- gramme. Both were cautious, but Dan- ziger whipped some speedy swings over in the first round. Howard used the Morse code and failed to land through telegraph- ing & buneh of cumbersome leads. How- ard mixed it flercely in the last round, but Danziger had a shade on the earlier rounds and was awarded the decislon. J. Lundy and T. A. Riordan, both unat- tached, opened the fourth bout in cyclone fashion. Lundy had all the speed in the first. He tapped the claret spiggot and had Riordan dlzzy early In the game. He dropped his man nicely with a right swin; on the jaw, and continued in the secon round to make Riordan’s jaw an easy tar- get. The fight was fast and the crowd grew noisy. Riordan liked the grueung and got ali that was coming to him be- fore the round closed. In the third Rlor- dan was pretty well pumped out, but still had a punch left. Another round was or- dered, when the judges disagreed. The verdict was out of line, and a decision should have been rendered by the referee under the rules. ” Without protest, save from the crowd, they went at it again. The men did not stand on the order of milling and went the pace to the end. Riordan got the de- cision, and_ the crowd yell its dis- approval. Lundy was clearly entitled to the fight before going the extra round, and doubly so after he had punched Rior- dan’s head into a trance. The welter-weights came next. M. J. Breen, Olympic Athletic Club, and W. J. Lawlor. unatiached, tried conclusions. Breen had the best of a slow argument, put his man on the carpet with a lucky left and got the decision. M. Curtin, San Francisco Athletic Club, was too heavy as carded among the light weights an. moved up a peg to meet J. B Dorle, Olympic Club, in the welter di- vision. In the second round both set off with & series of promiscuous swings gardless of pace or distance. It was an even break when the gong sounded. Nelther had anything to spare in the end. Curtin caught the judges' eye, and . the decision was popular, James Pallas, South End Rowing Club, and Gus Baraco, Olympic Club, got busy from the start. 'Pallas cut out the early work and landed. a whirl of stout joits on Baraco's eve, which at.once puffed up. Both mixed from the word in the next round. It was a rarely good contest. In a general exchange of heavy swings Bar- aco had a slight lead when the third round began. Baraco went down from a straight left, but came back fresh and ready. Pallas did the better work at the end and received a close verdict for his last minute's showing. Then came the lightwelghts. D. Mur- phy and J. A. Rock, both Olymple Club men, donned the “mitts.”” Murpay went in for quick action. He used the heel of his glove twice on his opponent. Rock was golng easy at the end of the round. He had all the better of the milling in the second. In the third round he drove Mur- phy into a corner and hammered him at will. It was a rough battle. Rock won. James Britt, Olympic Club, and W. L Bevert Jr., West Oakland A. C., were tried out next. Fast infighting marked the early proceedings of this flerce fight. Both were golng the limit when thé round closed. They went at it furiously in the second. Never was a faster go seen in an amateur ring. Bevert was down three times in the second round, but disdained to take the count and carried the fighting 10 his man. Bevert's showing was & mar- vel of gameness. One of his seconds helped him to defeat by blatant sugges: tions and unnecessary interruptions when the battle waxed hot. F. Bayly, Pacific A C., and J. Millet, S. F. A. C., m!ddle-weights, came on next. Both men were very green. Millet's long reach did great execution. His eye was in distress, but he got home some jarring rights and had all the best of the first art. Bayly stood up under awful pun- shment. Millet's declsion easily. Two evenly matched bantams, F. H. Connell, Olympic A. C., and W. Snaiiham, set a furlous clip from the gong. Snafl- ham won. J. Moran and D. Danziger followed in the semi-finals. It was a slow affair, Danziger leading all the way, W. Leonard and T. A. Riordan con- the second semi-final bout. gut Riordan down three times becavuse the latter couldn’t get out of his own way. Leonard got the verdict. M. Curtin and M. J.

This business, she claims in her answer, pays Hirsch a net monthly income of $1600.
