Patrolman Hiram G. Smith was charged by Sergeant Shaw with having neglected his duty for a visit to friends in the| Wharfinger's office, where he smoked a pipe, contrary to police rules. The ac- cused pleaded “not guilty” and produced witnesses who were Dri the time in question, who testi they_did not see Smith smoking. Sergeant Shaw swore that he onally saw Smith smoking, nce was positive the Commissioners rendered & verdict of “guilt In view of Smith’s long and efficient service, however, the penalty im- posed was only $10. g Patrolman Patrick Foley was charged with neglect of duty in being absent from his beat. Sergeant Wolf testified that he had spent an hour on the night of April 28 in & vain search for the accused officer and finally found him coming from a building. Foley was fined $20 and repri- manded. Patrolman Patrick Butler was repri- manded for reporting for duty twenty minutes late. A number of Chinese liquor dealers ap- peared before the commission in answer | 10 charges of selling intoxicants to China- town vagrants, They were all placed on probation. Several Presidio saloon-keepers applied for remewals of licenses, but owing to a flaw in the method of summoning them, their cases were generally continued. The Commissioners expressed their dissatis- | faction at the closing of army canteens. They decided to refuse applications for renewals in the Presidio district as soon as the old licenses expired. ——————— LONDON, May 7—C. A _Sands, an American player, defeated J. W.

PRIZE WINNERS OF MANY SHOWS WILL STRIVE FOR FURTHER HONORS Opening Day of the San Francisco Kennel Club Exhibition Wil Find the Benches Littered With the Best of Dogs. e F the hopes and belief of the manage- ment of the San Franeisco Kennel Club are realized society will turn out in full force this afternoon and even- ing to witness the opening of the “club’s annual exhibition. Never before in the history-of San Francisco dogdom: has, soclety taken such an interest in the bench show, not only because the canine pets of many social favorites are entered, but the bluest tlooded stock of the East- ern kennels and shows is here for ribbon prizes. Terriers have the call just now as house pets and these classes will be the strong- est ever exhibited in the West. In the smooth coated fox terriers champion Nor- folk Victorius, a dog bred in Canada, but now owned in Texas, is considered the best of the Eastern stock, while among the wire haired fox terriers the great champlion Meersbrook Bristles will be on the bench. In Boston terriers as well as in Airdales, Scotch, bulls and others, the classes will be far above average. Nor will keen competition be lacking, for of late years California fanclers have been reaching out for the best stock that money can buy and many champions of Eastern and English shows are now owned in this State and will be exhibited. Sporting dog owners and breeders will have a chance to see a large number of Eastern show setters and pointers, as L. A. Klein and Ben Lewis, the well known handlers, are here with big strings se- lected from among the winners at the Chicago show, recently closed. In collies and St. Bernards some surprises are promised as local fanciers have recently purchased some cracks and will try to carry off the chief honors with them.

[ ] B i S e | CANNERY DEAL IS NEARING COMPLETION } Syndicate Has Not Yet Accepted Price Asked by Alaska Packers’ Association. The syndicate involving the principal salmon canneries on the Pacific Coast is| nearing completion. All of the salmon | packing houses on the coast have named | thelr prices and these prices have met | with the approval of the syndicate, with | the exception of the Alaska Packers’ As- sociation. It is said that the latter's cap- ital stock represents $4,500,000 and that the | shareholders will not sell under $9,000,000. President Henry F. Fortmann of the Al- in the north inspecting the canneries, but a prominent officer of the company said vesterday that the association had mot yet sold to the syndicate. He admitted however that he had given R. Onffroy, the organizer of the syndicate, an option on the stock. George B. Meyers, one of the owners of the Meyers, Packing Company of Seattle, is in this city. His cannery is one of the oldest established on the coast. He said yesterday that he had been asked by the syndicate to give a price for his canning business and had done so. He added that all of the canneries have till June 30 to consider the matter. He would not state what price he asked for his concern. J. Pierpont Morgan and other financiers are said to be back of Onffroy and will put up the necessary capital to complete the deal, should the owners of the can- neries offer thcir establishments at rea- sonable figures. ———————— ) . Shamrock II Overhauled. SOUTHAMPTON, May 7.—The Sham- rock IT lay at her moorings to-day to al- low her crew to overhaul the rigging, stretched by the trial spins, and to alter her running gear. The mainsail is not considered, quite satisfactory and Ratsey has been ordered to supply another, which will probably be used the next time the yacht goes out. It is not likely therefore that the two Shamrocks will race to-mor- row. Mr. Fife is expected to assume charge of the Shamrock I Wednesday. Captains Sycamore and Wringe speak highly of the new beat, but Sycamore is still cautious. He says it would- be a mistake to make too much of a day’s sail- ing like yesterday, when nothing was in- tended but an informal trial on different points, and it is probable that neither ot the boats was sent along at full stretch. From Captain Sycamore's remarks it is gathered that he considered the cup chal- Jenger had a good deal in hand most of the day. Trotting Association Meet. NEW YORK, May 7.—The adjourned meeting of the board of review of the Na- tional Trotting Assoclation was begun here to-day. Among the members present were President P. P.
