JEFFRIES AND RUHLIN ARE EAGER FOR THE MEETING ON FRIDAY NIGHT ANGELS BAT 0UT A CLEAN VIGTORY Straighten Out Iburg's Curves for Nineteen Base Hits. Dougherty Makes a Great Record of Six Hits in One Game. Los_Angeles won hands down from the San Franciscos yesterday at Recreation Park by a score of 11 to 1. Joshua Reilly did all the scoring for the ‘Wasps. He was the first batter up in the fifth inning and sent the first ball pitched over the center-field fence for a home run. The Angels fell on Iburg’s curves for a total of nineteen hits. Dougherty made a remarkable record as a batsman. He was up six times and made six hits. This is the first time it has been accomplished here this season. It is seldom a player is at bat six times in a game. Having the opportunity, it is seldom a man has the ability to make a hit each time. Dough- erty scored four of the Angels’ runs. Pitcher McPartlin, who aggravates both players and_ spectators by his delibera- tions, won his tenth successive victory. The game was drawn out two hours and ten minutes partly owing to Mc- Partlin’s methods. He carefully polishes the ball and then goes all over it again. ‘Then he tries some of “March King"” Sou- sa’s movements. When he tires of this he remembers there is sand in his glove which must be removed. By this time the batsman is ready to hit at anything that comes over the plate. The jeers of the spectators have no effect on McPart- lin. He goes through the same aggravat- ing tactics with the next man up—and ‘wins games. Los Angeles played an errorless game, while the Wasps are charged with three errors, all of which let in runs. The southern batters commenced their execution in the second. Kihm and Hall, the first two up, were out at first. Reilly and Spies singled and McPartlin was given a pass to first, filling the bases. Hemphill bunted along the left foul line, scoring Reiflly. Dougherty scored Spies with a well placed hit over the pitcher's hfiiad' Atherton struck out, retiring the side. Kihm scored Dougherty in the fifth with a two-bagger. Dougherty scored again in the seventh, coming home on the throw- in of Hall's fly to left field. Dougherty and Spies scored in the eighth on Ather- ton’s two-bagger. Los Angeles bunched.its ‘hits in the ninth, scoring five men on five hits, aided by some errors. The fleld was slippery, safe footing for the players, especlally interfering with their throwing. The at- tendance was large. Score: LOS ANGELES. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A. E. e 8 [ 1 0 0 0 0 .6 4 6 1 5 0 0 6.0 itan 1 LE o R e 0 2 0 b 3 [ Hall, 's.

The entertainment will consist of living pictures, vocal and in- strumental music and a short play. Com- modore W. N. McCarthy of the San Fran- cisco Yacht Club has issued a circular to the members requesting them to purchase tickets for the entertainment, the pro- ceeds of which will be devoted to finish- ing the interior of the main hall of the clubhouse.

Rosseter's $10,000 greyhound, is dead. The great courser, whose sensa- tional victories on the field and the recent successes of whose progeny have made his name a household word wherever coursing is known, sue- cumbed to disease superinduced by an at- tack of epizooty, which is prevalent here among ~horges. ‘He died yesterday at Pasha Kennels, near Ocean View. For Freedom was bred by the great Eng- lish coursing firm of Fawcett Brothers, and was whelped in January, 189%. He is by Sir Sankey-Flitting Far. He trav- eled from England in a large wicker crate and arrived -here on March 16, 1598. On March 19, three days later, he was started In a stake. There was much cu- riosity among the coursing mien“to sée him in action, and .his owner took this method of gratifying their curlosity. To the surprise of everybody he won his first course and then the stake. The betting opened at 10 to 1 against him. From this it receded to 7 to 1. In the semi-final round he showed such a turn of speed that the odds were quickly ham- mered down to 2 to 5. In one round he met the_greyhound Move On and led him so far Judge Bull, who was in the sad- dle, sent them back to the slips, thinking Move On had not sighted the hare. The second trial resulted the same, and then it was seen how fast For Freedom was. He won nine stakes, including one on the Merced plains, and was then retired to the stud. His puppies, which have ap- peared this vear, promise to perpetuate his name These include Cold Shivers, winner of the rich Futurity stakes; Freeze Out, B> Iceman, Roval Archer, Rustic Arbor, Amedee, Acolus, Game Boy and Fontenoy. In color, For Freedom was a deep rich brindle with strong white markings. He was of most aristocratic appearance.

Although the day was cloudy, the marksmen at Sheli Mound yesterday made some excellent scores. The shooting in general was fully up to the ayerage. T{le Natonals, composed of batteries B and C, Natlonal Guard Artillery, held the eleventh contest of the year, and as most of the poorer shots have dropped out the fight for honors Is close and exciting. Sergeant J. W. Cobby distinguished him- self by making 2¢ points on each of the three targets. F. P. Schuster won his class contests in both the San Francisco Schuetzen Verein. and Germania Rifle Club shoots. McLaughlin and White did the best work for the Golden Gate Rifle and Pistol Club. .

In as hard a run and as exciting a final as has been seen at Union Coursing Park in many months, George Sharman’s clever greyhound Little Sister beat Eugene Geary's champlion hound Palo Alto yes- special stake. The short end players were Jjubilant over the result, for though Palo Alto was a 1 to 2 favorite, the backers of his half-sister were active in taking all the. tempting offers. The dogs were slipped to a lively hare. Palo Alto shewed slightly in advance up the field and taking possession rolled up the first five points. Little Sister got in and’ before relinquishing the game made a good score. By this time the coursers had had a severe trial, but Palo Alto put on extra steam and tried to end the course. The hare proved strong enough Suddenly the game to Little -fter a few tne kill, winning the stake by a score of 18 to 13. In the open stake George Nethercott's Floodgate beat A. A.

LONDON, Nov. 10.—The fall in consols, which is partially attributable to the speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, foreshadowing increased war taxes, caused everything to be dull during the early part of last week, but owing to the brisk revival in Ameri- can railway securities, all the markets closed better. With the exception of Americans there has been little increase in business, but the quickness with which prices rallied has encouraged a belief that better mar- kets are in prospect. The Northern Pa- cific settlement is the subject of much dis- cussion, especlally as to whether it is the &:nnin‘ of a new boom. bey from the London point of view ntinental exchange has improved - and there- ore there is no jmmediate prospect of §old shipments from London. The demand or gold in the n market has also di- minished. The w:e of bar gold shows a slight decline. The shipment of gold to South Africa, which began with the wit drawal of £1i3,000 week before last, see likely to be larger than usual. It is re nize here that the French deman old has not been entirely satisfled by New York shipments and that it will & Decessary to keep up rates in order to pre- vent the return of French capital. BERLIN, Nov. 10.—The Boerse has grown more stagnant, although values have only been maintained. me coal and iron shares improved several points on the week, but others fell off. All oth industrials were weaker. Ocean transpo atlon shares experienced a new fall, Ham- burg-American declining 250 and North Tman Llovd 4. The latter went below par for the first time in five years. * The Cologne Gazette argues that competition of American anthracite w German anthracite is not to be feared. i asmuch as the price of coal delivered Rhine boats at Rotterdam is 29 marks ¢ the product, whereas the German mi offer the same quality at 23 marks. To this the Berliner Tageblatt replics that the continued imports of American anthracite demonstrates the ability of :he Americans to compete and it expresses a hope that American competition will com- a:l :h;ol’):{mn: prm;lucers to reduce prices where easily . mports can be easily American rallway securities were active. Interest was confined chiefly to Northern Pacific in which, however, realizations oc- curred toward the end of the week. —_— The roar of a than the sound ture. l;gn can b: helard am; Next comes the ery of &' crea- ye Ppanther and
