Hodson Is at His Best—Mohler Plays His First Game. o e McNeely e his first appearance on the Recres grounds yesterday, and with the ex tion of a single inning, when the Dudes kept playing around the bases, he pitched very good ball The third read the knell to Sacramento's hopes of victory. With two men in the cemetery Babbitt came for = hit, scoring immediately after on a two-base hit by Streib, who in turn crossed the rubber on-Eagan's sin- up gle. Then came Drennan with another two-bagger, and Eagan added the third run to the list. Mohler was the third to die. He was introduced yesterday by Ewing and gives promise of “making good.” \ In the first inning the Senators shot Devereaux across the plate. Golng to first on & hit, stealing second and reaching third on McLaughlin's out, he scored en Doyle's hit through Babbitt.

Almonada Captures the Two- Twenty Class in Good Style. e SACRAMENTO, Sept. 6.—Beyond ques- tion the largest crowd of the meet attend- | ed the racing at Agricultural Park to-day. | The merriment of the gay throng was | partially hushed when the attempt on the | | life of the President was made known ! and the flags were all half-masted when it was reported that the nation’s head| | had passed away. Later when a bulletin | was posted that President McKiniey was | still alive it was hailed with great ap- plause from the stand. | "All @ay long the traveling men were strongly in evidence, it being Drummers’ day. Irrepressible Wilbur Knapp was | | preset, leading more than two score of | the “knights.” They took possession of the grounds in the forenoon and kept | those assembled in gay spirits with a series of races. Ole Folks, the unique colored turf char- acter, known from Brighton Beach, where he used to buck and wing for the edifica- tion of the grand stand, to Willows, Cal., | where he “flew the bank roll” running a crap game, is on the ground.

Thomas R, handlea by Farmer buncn, was the pick of the smart ones but he went lame after tak- | ing the second heat, and Almonada, with | the first to Iis credit, won tne tmrd and fourth heats. Five started in the Drummers' race. It evoked very little interest, finally going to_Abaine, driven by H. A. Bell.

WASHINGTON, - Sept. 6.—General Gil= lesple telegraphed Vice President Roose- velt at Burlington, Vt., and it is presumed that it was his message tha: started the Vice President in haste to Buffalo. Dur- ing the early evening a conference was | held at the War Department of such of the department army officers as could be gathered at such short notice by General Giliespie. He informed them that he-com- municated with General Brooke, at Gov- ernor’s Island, and that the general had replied that he would start immediately for Buffalo, where he will arrive in the morning, to take personal charge of all arrangements for guarding the Presiden- tial household. Meanwhile he had directed that the troops which had been placed on guard around the hospital in the Exposi- tion grounds be tramsferred to the Mil- burn home, where the President lles, to serve as a guard and keep back the pub- lic and preserve quiet. V. General Brooke has at Buffalo at his disposal a company of coast artillery sta- tioned in the Exposit:on grounds, a com- pany of the Fifteenth Infantry, also sta- tioned at Fort Porter, within the limits of he Exposition preserves, and other troops | at Fort Niagara. The conference decided that there was little more that the War Department could undertake at this time. Surgeon General Van Reypen of ‘the mavy, who came down to the Navy Department, called at General Gillespie’s office and, discussing the case from a medical point | of view, took occasion to mention Dr. | Nicholas Senn of Chicago as an expert of high grade in such cases of injury, and the suggestion was promptly telegraphed to Buffalo that his services be secured. Assistant Secretary Ailes of the Treas- ury Department received a message to- night from Secretary Gage at Chicago stating that he was about to leave at once for Buffalo, where he will arrive to-mor- row. Admiral Dewey arrived in Washington early in the afternoon. He proceeded at once to his suburban home and was oc- cupled with the details of the approaching Schiey court of inquiry, when the news reached him by telephone. He at once sought all the particulars that were avail- able and placed himself in readiness for any service that might be required of him, informing Acting Secretary Hackeft of that fact. The admiral found himself unable to express his feelings at the news and all that could be extracted from him was that he was plunged in grief too deep for utterance at this time. He said that he could not now express an opinion as to the effect that the calamity might have | on the court of inquiry or even whether it would result in the postponement of the | approaching sitting. Owing to the absence of many of the diplomatic corps at Buffalo and at the various summer resorts, there were only two representatives of this body of rank in Washington to-day. Minister Wu was one of these, and when seen to-night he was a picture of distress. He realized keenly the tremendous in- debtedness of China to President McKin- ley's kindly impulses in her great trials in the last year and was shocked that the great calamity had befallen him. He gaid he could conceive of no sort of motive for such an inexcusable deed as that of Nie- | man, and he was severe in his denuncia- tion of anarchists. He asked why they were permitted to hatch such plots as this in a republic, where the people could readily change their President if they were in the slightest degree dissatisfied | with his official conduét or his private personality. In conclusion, almost with tears, he ex- pressed the hope that the President would speedlly recover from his terrible injury. The other diplomatic representative in Washington was Senor Herran, repre- senting the Government of the United States of Colombia. He glso was greatly ! Qistressed and affirmed that his whole | country would sympathize with the Presi- He could not understand, he said, why such a benevo- lent character as President McKinley | should be thus assaulted by one of the people, and he declared that it was time that the anarchists should be suppressed. It was somewhat gratifying to the offi- clals here that the very first expressions of official sympathy should come from the island of Cuba in the shape of the follow- ing telegram received at the War Depart- ment at p. m HAVANA, Sept. 6.—Adjutant General, Wash- ingtén: Mayor and City Council of Havana have cabled expressing sorrow and solicitude tor the President, and desire that his family be advised of these exvressions, SCOTT, Adjutant General. PREDICTED DISASTER FOR_THE PRESIDENT SOMERSET, Pa., Sept. 6.—Abner Mec- Kinley left here Monday evening for the Pacific Slope. The bulletin announcing the attack on the President threw the people of Somerset into a panic and hundreds rushed to the McKinley place, the sum- mer home of Abner, to tender condol- ences. Dr. A. J. Endsley, who officiated at the marriage of the President and Mrs. Me- Kinley and who has been on terms of intimate friendship with the Chief Executive since he was a lad, was over- come with grief. He said that after read- ing the President's address delivered at the Pan-American Exposition yesterday in this morning's papers he was seized with a conviction that the President would not live to serve out his term. He communicated his impression to his wife. He is unable to account for the convie- tion that came to him RARE SPORT FURNISHED BY CLEVER AMATEURS Ring-goers_who filled the gymnasium of the San Francisco Athletic Club last night were treated to some rare sport. Gore flowed and a“sufficient number of knockouts enllvened things materially. There were eight bouts, and every one of them was interesting. George Doherty had an easy time de- feating Mike Maher. In.the second round Maher claimed he had been fouled, and While appealing to the referee recelved a forcible reminder that he was in the ring. The referee gave the bout to Doherty. Willle Borne and Tommy West, two clever, bantams, afforded much amuse- ment. Borne was given the decision after four rounds of good work. “Bob” Thomas landed on.Al Duffy's solar plexus and the Jatter had no stomach to continue fight- ing. Joe Bradshaw had a nice time with Jack Lundy, a prototype of Ed Dunk- hurst, the human freight car. Bradshaw worked on Lundy as a cooper would around a barrel. Lundy concluded to stay down in the third round. Paul Martin and Ernest Wilson fought four rounds to a draw. It was a rntu?nz go. George Eralatz was knocked out. by ¥red George in the first round. George has the making of a good man. Charles Peterson battered Pete McGee for four rounds and was given a decision. . McGee fought foully. His ability to withstand Peterson’s heavy smashes was marvelous. | York to the man: BOERS BATTLE TH BRITISH Kitchener’s Troops Cap- ture Men After a Fierce Fight.

Joe Walcott, the Barbadoes fistic terror, left New York vesterday afternoon, bound directly for this city. He is expected to arrive here next Tuesday morning. On the 27th of this month Walcott will fight George Gardner before the San Francisco Athletic Club. Tom O'Rourke, who handles Walcott, seems to think that his man will have an easy time with Gardner, but that is strictly O'Rourke’s opinion.

Pilot Who Was on the Brooklyn Will Furnish Testimony. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—The Navy De- partment received a Tetter from Admiral Schley to-day containing a: list of wit- nesses he desires to have brought here and adding a request that they be sum- moned. Acting Secretary Hackett has ex- pressed a willingness to have the wit- nesses brought here at once. Arrange- ments have been made to arrange techni- cal details, so that they may get here promptly. Admiral Barker, who was a member of the War Board during the Spanish-Amer- ican war, arrived here to-day. He is one of the witnesses on Admiral Schley’s list, which leads to the belief that the evidence may go into circumstances before the war began and when the West Indlan cam- paign was planned. Admiral Schley and his counsel to-day began holding sessions with the witnesses they will call. Those heard to-day were Admirals Watson and Barker. The sit- tings were private and the character of the evidence was not disclosed. Admiral Watson was at Guantanamo on. the day of the battle of Santiago. Judge Advocate General Lemly has de- cided, so far as the civilian witnesses whose names appear on the list are con- cerned, that he has no power under the law to summon them in advance of the meeting of the court, that body alone be- ing competent to issue a_ formal sum- mons having legal force. Captain Lemly to-day issued ‘‘notices” to each of the clvilians named, requesting them to be present in Washington at the opening day of the court next Thursday. The name of Nunez, the pilot, is on Ad- miral Schley’s list. He was_put aboard the Brooklyn by Captain Sigsbee to serve as a pilot, and he it was who reported to Admiral Schley that it was impossible for the Spanish squadron o enter Santiago harbor without tugs, on account of the crookedness of the channel. Among the ctvilians to be called are several news- paper men who served as correspondents during the West Indlan campaign. 2 STANFORD STUDENT TO WED FORMER INSTRUCTOR Engagement of Floyd 0. Rittenhouse and Miss Blanche Anderson Is Announced. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. 6.— An announcement which has awakened unusual interest in the college community is that of the approaching marriage of Miss Blanche Josephine Anderson, A. M., and Floyd Omer Rittenhouse, ex-'03. Rittenhouse first met his flancee in a classroom in which she was instructor and he a freshman student. He was a student in the history department and she held the position of instructor in ancient history. Their acquaintance ripened into something stronger than the ordinary frierdship of student for teacher and the announcement of their engagement came as a surprising bit of romance to univer- sity circles. Miss Anderson was a graduate student in the university before accepting an in- structorship in 'the history department. | She took her‘bachelor's degree at Oberlin College, Ohio, and her master’s degree at Stanford in 1898. As an instructor Miss Anderson was a favorite with the stu- dents. She lived in Oberlin, Ohio, before coming to California. L Floyd Rittenhouse entered Stanford in 1899, registering from Ashland, Ohio, and remained two years. While here he earn- ed his way through college by working in a Palo Alto barber shop. He was very popular with his college classmates. Since leaving the university he has been con- ducting a barber shop in Santa Cruz. The wedding will occur in Santa Cruz next Sunday.
