Clever Battles Fought at the San Fran- cisco Athletic Club More than two thousand people crowded and perspired in the gymnasium of the San Francisco Athletic Club last night for the privilege of seeing athletic youths pummel each other into insensibility. The spectators shouted and gesticulated and after the evening’s entertainment left the arena tired, but in a happy frame of mind. It was the banner crowd in the history of the local club, and the smiles on the faces of the directors attested thelr joy. The opening bout was a hummer. Jack Cordell and "“Kid" Parker were the con- testants, When the bell signaled hostlli- ties, Parker extended the hand of peace, but Cordell smote him on the jaw with epartment with his right. Parker was shocked, as were also the spectators, and Cordell ‘'was unmercifully hooted for his unsportsmanlike conduct. Parker be- ceme angry and sailed into Cordell and the latter soon flew signals of distress. In the second round Parker went at his man and had him groggy. Cordell was in no condition to continue and was disquali- fled. All of which gave joy to the multi- tude. Tom Snallham, a brother of the ama- teur bantam champlon, entered the arena urder the neme of Billy Murphy. He fought a youth named Jack Bevans and made him look like a “selling plater.” Snailham struck Bevans while he was down, and the latter claimed and was awarded the decision on a foul. Billy McDonald made short work of Ed Daly. Daly's aspirations were dimmed in one round of one-sided fighting. Charles Ryan and Jack Murry fought four exoit- ing rounds to a draw. It was the best bout of the night and kept the spectators on_thelr feet. The decision was highly satisfactory. Archie Dean and Pete Coleman, alias Magee, pummeled each other until their gaces were puffed and bleeding. Magee's Tace was adamantine and withstood the blows of his opponent. He was awarded the fight near the close of the second round. Dean meant well but executed badly Mike Curtain and Jim Pallas, allas “Sharkey,” fought four rounds to a draw. Tt was an even bput, but highly exciting. Billy Snailham ended the aspirations of Jim Curley of Seattle in less than two Tounds. The bantam champion had an easy game before him and.landed at will. Curley has the making of a good lad, be- | ing cool and somewhat shifty, but against a whirlwind like Snailham he is out of his element Artie Granfield also made short work of “Kia" Daly of Denver. The “Kid" was willing, and so was Artie. At the end of the first mix-up the “Kid"” changed his mind and dropped to the floor. He was prevailed to arise and continue, but a left uppercut sent him to the land of dreams. WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL. mile road race of the As- sociated Cyclists, held last Sunday. was the most successful event of its kind that the wheelmen around the bay have en- joved for some time past and the resu't has been a renewed Interest in cycling matters. The annual meeting of the as sociation will be held shortly and the captains of the various local clubs are preparing their lists of club events for the spring and summer months. The S8an Mateo Athietic Club will be quite a prominent factor in wheeling cir- cles this yvear. The club has a member- ship of 102, nearly all of whom are wheel- men. The club intends to enter a team in the annual 100-mile ielay race in May, and will enter its men in all interclub events hereafter. A building committea has been appointed, consisting of C. Kirkbride, Paul Noisac, Walter Anderson, D. Webster Donnelly and H. V. Ready, with power to purchase a suitable site for a clubhouse, which will be erected this summer. At the next meeting a nominat ing committee will be chosen to select the directorate for the coming year. Herbert V. Readr, a prominent local wheelman, has just returned from a threa months’ sojourn in Southern California. He says the racing game was about dead 1os Angeles until Floyd McFarland took hold of it, but he is gradually build- ing it up again. Riverside, Pasadena and San Diego all have flourishing clubs and the entire south is using more wheels than ever. Louis Bill, who has been long connected with the Lozier people in the East, is in the city and will hereafter make this city his home. o GOSSIP OF THE KENNELS. fairly clever, The bench show committee of the Saa Francisco Kennel Club held its regular weekly meeting on Tuesday last, on whicn oecasion many important preliminaries of the show were settled. The sccretary, who has been authorized to select the lo- cation for the office of the club, will be in a position shortly to report to the com- mittee with a few offers from the owners of the necessary space. It is a point in favor of the show that the club will this vear have more trovhies to offer the ex- hibitor than ever before. These trophies will be of great value, and taking -this circumstance in conjunction with the fact that the judges will be two gentlemen of the widest and best reputation as experts, there is no reason why the entry this year should not.surpass every previous record. A. B. Truman of the Elcho Kennels promises to make such an exhibition of ointers and Irish setters as has never een seen on this coast before. E. C. Plume, the secretary of the newly orgau ized Cocker Spaniel Club, expects that his club alone, exclusive of 'outside fanciars, will bench ot less than 110 dogs, wh'ch in itself is 5) per cent more than the total number of the breed benched last vear. The secretaries of the other speciaity clubs_are just as enthusiastic, and it is stated that the bench show committee has made arrangements with the contractors to put up benches for not less than 600 dogs. .

Before the time for the hearing. when Choynski, Johnson and their attorne: were in the courtroom, the Grand Jur came in and submitted a written report that they had investigated the case against Choynski and Johnson and had found no bill against them. The law states that a person shall not be discharged upon failure of the Grand Jury to find an indictment until after tha Grand Jury had adjourned for the term. The habeas corpus hearing was then be- gun. The bond of 35000 was reduced t> $2500 each. The case will go to the Court of Criminal Appeals, In default of bonds the pugilists were committed to jail. READY FOR ROWING SEASON. Last Sunday some members of the South End Rowing Club repaired the apron and made it ready for use so that boats may be easily placed In the water. Junior and other barge crews will soon be made up and practice begun. The barge crew made up of F. Mavo, Emil Blumlein, C. C. Dennis and Charle: Jenkins goes out every Sunday for a prac- tice row. A Dbill is before the State Senate, num- bered Senate bill 392 and entitled “An act to amend section 2524 of the Political Code.” It is hoped under this act to em- power the Harbor Commissioners to set apart a suitable site for the exclusive uss of rowing clubs incorporated under the laws of the State of Cal.fornia for athletic urposes only and not for profit and to ease the same to the clubs for a period of years. If the enlar:{>*d powers abava stated are given to tae Haroor Commis sioners a petition will be prepared asking them to set apart a location for the row- ing clubs. The Ariel Rowing Club is in- corporated and it will be quite easy to in- c?rporala the South End Rowing Clud also. COUNCIL SCORES " PACIC ML !

In his presentation speech Mr. Hauser said in part: 1 thank you on behalf of the Academic League for the many kindnesses shown to us, and we desire to present to you this slight token of our esteem. I would like to say that this gavel is not presented alone from the committee, but from 4000 members of twenty schools.

The meeting was an enthusiastic one and the delegates reported that the fights now on between empiloyers and employes wers well in hand. " Action was taken on the policy of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company of em- ploying Chinese on its vessels, with the result that the following set of resolu- tions were adopted: Whereas, The steamship City of Rio de Ja- nelro, owned by the Pacific Mail Steamship was wrecked in the harbor of Saa . Cal, on February 22, 1901, with consequent oss of more than one hundred and twenty lives, including over seventy pas- sengers, male and female; and whereas, the sald steamship was manned, exclusive of the officers, by a crew composed entirely of Chi- nese; therefore be it Resolved, by the San Francisco Labor Coun- cil, Tha" we deeply deplore the great loss of Iife involved in this catastrophe, and we tribute the causes thereof to gross carelessness on the part of the persons responsible for the ravigation of the vessel, induced by fear of the company's displeasute in event of delay in making port. We believe that, irrespective of the causes of the wreck, the great luss of life was mainly due to the inefficiency and cowardice of the crew in the supreme moment of danger.; We therefore hold the Pacific Mail Steamship/ Company, as the employer of the crew, solely responsible for the terrible results of that inetficiency and cowardice and con- demn In unmeasured terms its policy of em- ploying coolles on its vessels We recognize the fact, well substantiated by all experience, tFat Chinese and all other classes of Astatics cre notoricusly unreliable In any emergency, and we believe that the Pacific Mail Company is, and was, fully cognizant of this fact. In view of these circumstances we consider the statements of Vice President Schwerin of the Pacific Mall Company to the effect that Chi- rese are as reliable as white seamen to be a gratuitous reflection upon the latter and a serious aggravation of his. own offense in the matter. We are convinced that the policy of the Pacific Mail Company in_employing Chi- Tese is® without any reasonable justification: that it Is Inspired by pure greed, and that it constitutes a willful and heinous crime sgainst the lives of the traveling public and should be universally denounced as such; and further Resolved, That in the opinion of this body immediate’ steps should be taken by Congress to enact a law prohibiting the employment of any Asiatic, in_any capacity, on any vessel ol the United States and requiring that all such vessels shall be manned by white crews of specific qualifications upon a specifically graduated scale; and further Resolved, That coples of these resolutions be submitted to the press of San Francisco and forwarded to the Senators and Representa- tives from California.
