His remarkable recuperative powers | and his gameness again brought him | around, and he faced his hard-hitting op- ponent as though nothing had happened. Gardner saw victory in sight and rushed | at him. To the surprise of the spectators Carter landed a stiff left to body and right | to head as though he was just clearing for | action. Gardner was the fresher and knocked the “Kid"” to the floor with a right upper- cut. The defeated man took nine seconds on the floor. When he stood np again it | was only to receive a shower of blows which sent him down a second time. He remained down eight seconds, and, al- though dazed and practically helpless, he | again staggered to his feet. This time | Gardner steadied himself and sent a| crashing right to the body, which left Carter helpless until he was counted out. Carter a Dangerous Opponent. Carter showed himself the most danger- | ous man in the ring to-day, as, no matter now cruelly beaten he was, he always had the power to deliver a punch whieh would put out an opponent. As for Gardner he will find it difficult to induce any middle-weight to enter the ring with him. Harry Corbett ventured the opinfon that with fifteen pounds more weight he would prove more than a match for Champion Jeffries. He is the mildest- | mannered chap in the world out of the ring, but onee inside the ropes he is a marvelous fighting machine. He has all the arts and artifices of the fighter and never stops. The blow with which he did all the execution last night was a right uppercut while in a clinch. Carter was unable to block this and it did_terrible execution. In the first two rounds Gard- ner went in head first at Carter, and if he missed with his hands he scored with his head. After a time Carter and his seconds saw the play and appealed to Referee Jim McDonald to stop it, which he did. When the men went together for the | first time Gardner at once tried a right shift which he has been practicing as- siduously. It worked to perfection and he shot his right across at Carter, scor- ing at once. For a moment it seemed the fight would end then and there. Carter's tremendous vitality was not to be sapped | by any one blow, however, and he showed | no_ill effects from this one. Before the round was over the specta- tors at the ringside were predicting it would not -go three rounds. Gardner seemed to outclass his opponent in this round, although Carter wss not idle, sending in some stinging right-hand blows 1o the body. Gardner proved a master hand at blocking and many 'of Carter's terrible blows never reached the point for which they were aimed. Gardner Slows Down. In the second round Gardner started proceedings, his object at the opening of each round being apparently to intimidate Carter. Carter was not to be denied, and | landed two hard rights to the body. Gard- | ner landed right and left and followed | with two hard lefts to the body. Gardner missed a hard right and left swing. He landed repeatedly on the body and the “Kid” showed signs of distress. The “Kid” landed what seemed like a hard right to the head, but it glanced off Gard- ner’s shoulder. It was in this round Gard- ner was accused of butting with his head. In the third round Gardner slowed down noticeably in his pace, and for a time it was thought his hands had ven way. Carter was full of fight but did not seem to trouble Gardner, who protected him- self cleverly. Near the end of the fourth round Gard- ner sent in a short left jolt to the body, which looked for a moment as though it would end the fight. Instead of stopping Carter, however, he came back fighting. Gardner again worked the right shift, but | — did not make the desired connection with Carter’s jaw. rter ‘opened proceedings in the fifth with a hard right swing to the head. Gardner came back with a left to the body and then stumbled, leaving himself wide open. Carter was not properly balanced to take advantage of the opportunity and lost it. He went at Gardner fercely for the remainder of the round. A right to the head seemed to rattie Gardner slight- ly. They exchanged rights, Carter get- ting the worst of the bargain. Carter then landed a left to the body and one to the head, and just at the bell uppercut Gardner. Carter made a brilliant showing in the first half of the sixth. He sent two lefts to the jaw and followed them with a right to the body. He staggered Gardner with two rights to the body. These were his last effective blows. In a clinch Gardner's terrible right shot up between Carter's arms and started him on the | down grade, Gardner then stood and pep- pered him with rights and lefts to the head as Walcott did in their memorable fight. Carter finally went down under the fusilade. The bell saved him and he was carrfed to his corner. He had no defense in the seventh and his brain must have been in a terrible whirl. Gardner was over anxious and missed one cHance for a left swing. When Carter scemed helpless he turned on his opponent and plugged in his right to the body. He took an avalanche of blows and again came back unexpectedly with a right to the jaw. Carter went down again and was again saved by the gong at the ead of the Tound. This only nfeant prolonging the 3 He took blows which would have faied an ox and would not stop fighting until finally his senses deserted him and he went down a limp, inanimate object on the ficor of the ring; e ten seconds quickly sped b: fight was over.

Sl ham was the aggressor throughout, but Gilfeather landed the most effective blows. He was slow to start, letting Snailham do all the leading and contented himself with blocking. After he woke up, however, he showed a dangerous left but it went wide of its mark for several rounds. He finally got the range and played effectively for Snailham’s head. In the seventh round Snailham stumbled and his opponent was quick to take ad- vantage of the opening. He ripped a right to Snailham’s stomach, but the lat- ter recovered his balance and landed a right to the head, knocking Giifeather down. Gilfeather had much the better of the eighth round and in_ the ninth aid good execution with his left. Snailham was In distress but was full of fight. The tenth round did not change the aspect of the fight and it was declared a draw. 0’Connor Cuts Out a Fast Pace. The four-round bout between Winnio O'Connor and John Growe orey declared a draw, although O’Connor did the most effective work. Crow who looked like a miniature of “Bob" Fitz- simmons as to bulld and with a typical “scrapper’s dial” of a face, was full of fight. The boys went the first two rounds at half speed, but the remainder of the bout was full of fighting. ¥ walked into a hard right g1n :&“3335 which drew blood to his nose.

The participants in the ring confined themselves to sparring, and the events were mostly three-round bouts between local men. The main feature was the appearance of the feather-weight and heavy-weight ghampions, respectively “Young Corbett"” dnd James J. Jeffries. Previous to their appearance with their sparring partners the champions were pitted against each other for three rounds, affording much amusement to the spectators. To the crowd they both announced their readiness to defend their champlonship titles against all comers. REIFFS ARRIVE IN SAN JOSE TO SPEND WINTER Two Jockeys Repair to Their Orchard Home Near the Garden City. SAN JOSE, Dec. 20.—Lester and John Reiff, the jockeys who gained fame and fortune in England the past season, have arrived in this city and will spend the winter at their orchard homé near here. Last summer the Reiff boys purchased a fine fruit ranch for upward of $20,000 on the Infirmary road, three miles west of San Jose. Their father, mother and sis- ter are making the place their home and the brothers will visit them. John Reiff will leave for France in Feb- ruary to ride in the spring races there, and Lester has announced his intention of quitting the track. Lester was ruled off the English track this year. It is said The earnings of the two boys the past year will reach $30,000 each. Hea Hitting at Los Angeles. Yy g By LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20.—The All- Americas demolished another Los Ange- les pitcher to-day. Hartwell will have cause to remember the drubbing he re- ceived for a long time. From Pickering to Frazer, the top and bottom of the bat- ting order, each and every player slammed the ball to every corner of the lot, the long line hits and flies beating a tattoo against the high fence surrounding the grounds. Seven men made the cir- cult in the first inning and eight more runs were scattered through the renfain- der of the innings, making a total of 15 against 2 for Los Angeles. The locals could do nothing with Frazer after the second inning. Results at New Orleans.

Michigan Players on the Way. ANN ARRBOR, Mich., Dec. 20.—Amid the deafening cheers of rooters and enthusi- astic townsmen, the University of Michi- gan football team left to-night for Pasa- dena, Cal., where they will play Leland Stanford University on New 1ears day. These players went: Gregory, center; Wilson and McGuin, guards; Captain White and Captain-elect Shorts, tackles; Herrnsteln and Redden, ends: Weeks. quarter: Sweeley and Heston, half; Snow, full, and Graver, Redner, Forest and Southworth, substitutes.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20.—Mercer, the right fielder and pitcher of the All-Ameri- can Baseball Club, now playing in Los Angeles, has received an offer from Cal Ewing to manage and captain the Oak- land team next year. The terms offered are said to be in excess of what Mercer can make in the East and are said to include a share in the club. Mercer ad- mits he has an offer and that it can be held open for a month, but will say noth- ing as to terms. “Young Peter Jackson” Wins. BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 20.—‘Young Peter Jackson’ defeated Charles O'Rourke of Boston in the fourth round to-night be- fore the Eureka Athletic Club. O'Rourke was knocked down twice In succession and was practically out when his seconds threw up the sponge. He gave a beautiful exhibition of boxing for three rounds, but Jackson's superior strength was too much for him and he was badly used up in the last round. e e T Feather-Weights Fight to Draw. OMAHA, Nebr.,, Dec. 20.—Oscar Gard- ner and Jack Whitaker of Cleveland, both feather-weights, fought twenty rounds to a draw at South Omaha to- night. Gardner did most of the leading and was the aggressor during a greater part of the fight. s S Y Neill to Fight Smith Again.

Irwin returned it, but no damage was done and the men’s seconds hurriae them to their corners. In the second Irwin at once brought his dangerous left into tElny. He knocked Granfleld down and the latter took eight seconds on the mat. When he got up there was. another mixup in the middle of the ring and Irwin’s left caught Gran- field on the chin. Almost with the same motion the right went over and Granfleld fell like a log, to be counted out. — JOSIE G AGAIN DEFEATS BOTANY AND MAKES A NEW TRACK RECORD Royalty and Bedeck the Only Successful Favorites at Oakland---General . Interest in the Match Race To-Day Between Old England, Carrying the Morris Colors, and San Nicholas, the Burns & Waterhouse Crack THE CALL'S RACING FORM CHART. ——-——— O faster track could be found in the country than the ong.at Oakland in its present condition and some very clever stunts are performed over it daily. Yester- day Josie G, the speedy daughter of Bloomsbury, administered a thorough beating to Botany, at five furlongs, and at the same time reduced the track rec- | ord for the distance to 5v% seconds. On | some occasions racegoers are difficult to convince, for, although Josie defeated Botany only a few uays back, it was considered a scratch win. For just this reason in their latest meeting, Botany bad first call 1n the betting. Glendenuing, pounds below his best form. led to the stretch with Botany at his heels. How- son, on Josie G, was untortunate in be- ing bumped and getting a bad break at the start, but it mattered little. In the | run home, the filly breezed by Botany, winning almost easily by a length. How- son, on the winner, rode a perfect race. One thing or another seems to operate cgainst the happiness and success of first choices, for Royalty and Bedeck were the only ones to land first. The ma- jority of books had a most successful day of it. Little Redfern brought Royalty, favor- ite for the introductory sprint, from far back in the rear, and in a hard drive led De Capo out a head. The latter horse was bet on, and had Royalty not been pounds the best, could not have won from | the start he received. Almoner ran third. | There seems to be nothing in store for | o0ld Pat Morrissey of late but bad racing | luck. He ruled a mild favorite for the Futurity course sprint and was much the best. Mounce, however, tried to come through on the rail in the stretch and was cut off half a dozen times. After Alfred C quit Midnight Chimes headed the bunch and won driving from Parsi- fal by more than a length. Morrissey was third. Three heads on the wire, with the 13 to 10 favorite Hainault third, marked the finish of the six furlong selling affair, third to be decided. Kitty Kelly, a 20 to | 1 outsider, cut a big dash out In front, but | was outgamed by Vantine, which was well handled by Lee Jackson. Hainault, with Hoar in the saddle, was crowded in on the rail the entire route or he would have won. J. Gardner’s chestnut colt Bedeck nego- tiated the mile in the fifth event in 1:39%, beating ‘David S cleverly. Beyond questicn the class _of the four ‘starters, the ring laid 6 to 5 against the Gardner entry. Lee Jackson on David S tried to make a runaway affair of it, and while the outsider made a bold bid O’Connor on Bedeck moved from last position, win- ning by a length and a half. 5 Half a dozen of the different entries in the final mile and a sixteenth run looked to have a chance. On private trials El Fonse closed a slight favorite over Ar- tilla, but did not met a mark. Jackson soon had the 10 to 1 shot Diomed showing first, and the outsider disposed of Artilla | handily at the finish. Track Notes. Larry Daly was suspended indefinitely by the officials in the stand for not fur- nishing a more vigorous ride on Hua- chuca. Hainault, entered in the name of Ed Lanigan, was claimed from the third race by F. W. Doss, the owner of Bedner. The St. Carlg two-year-old was entered to be sold for $400. Report, however, has it that Hainault will again be in ‘Daggie” Smith's stable. . Lee Jackson had on his riding clothes vesterday. He piloted three winners in Midnight Chimes, Vantine and Diomed. There is one pleasant feature about Jack- son’s riding, and that is in being con- sistent. The Vendome stock farm disposal sale will take place at the Occidental Horse Exchange, 721 Howard street, this morn- ing. Trotters with records and a number of richly bred brood mares in foal to Mc- Kinney will pass under the hammer. According to hearsay, $4000 was recently, offered and refused for Josie G. If Mounce had used better judgment in the opening sprint Pat Morrissey could rot have lost. He pulled in at the head of the stretch in an endeavor to get through on the rail when it looked ‘and was an impossibility. The match race this afternoon between Olda England and San Nicholas has at- tracted widespread attention and prom- ises to be a swell betting affalr. Of course with two wins to his credit Old England is bound to be favorite. Besides this spe- cial feature the Junior stake for two- year-olds, with the great Cruzados as a starter, 15_down for decision. All in all, it is one of the strongest cards of the sea- son.

ROWING CLUBMEN TALK OF AN AMALGAMATION Oarsmen Ousted From Long Wharf May Unite in’ One Strong Or- ganization Under New Name. Next Monday night the members of the Alameda Boat Club will meet in the club- house at the foot of Chestnut street, Ala- meda, to nominate and elect a new board of officers to serve for the ensuing term of six months. The club is in a flourish- ing condition, both as regards number of members and finances, the recent annual entertainment having added a hanusome sum to the general fund. Some time ago it was suggested that the Pioneer and Ariel rowing clubs, which then had their boathouses side by side on Long wharf, should combine. At that time it was not supposed the clubs would have to move away and leave their houses, and as the Pioneers did not wish to merge their identity in that of another club, nothing came of the suggestion. Now that both clubs have lost their old houses and locations, the talk of amalga- mation is heard again. T)e Pioneers have some good oarsmen, their senior barge crew being probably the strongest on the bay, but their list of members has fallen off and it is understood their finances are none too flourishing. As the Pioneers would not_like to lose their identity in the Ariel Club, and the Ariels would not be willing to sink theirs in the Pioneer Club, it would be necessary to chooss a new name, which might be done readily. The Ariels are in a good position now, and one strong club seems able to include all the rowing men whose headquarters were for so many years on Long wharf. The installation of the recently elected officers of the Ariel Rowing Club will take place on the second Monday in January, on which night there will be a high jinks. At the last meeting of the Pacific Asso- ciation of the Amateur Athletic Union, President . B. Hinchman announced his appointment of A. P. Rothkopf of the Dolphins as a rowing commissioner. His duties will be to devise means for fur- thering the sport. The newly elected officers of the Dol- OAKLAND RACETRACK- 8010. FIRST RACE—Six furlongs; selling; al eather fine.

PASADENA, Dec. 20.—Arrangements for the Stanford-Michigan football game, the big sporting event of the annual tourna- ment of roses on New Year's day, are nearing completion. The Stanford party, consisting of the varsity and subs, coaclies and trainers, twenty men in all, is scheduled to arrive here to-morrow noon in charge of Manager Edwards. The men will be quartered at the Hotel Green, as will the Eastern players when they arrive. The Stanford eleven will complete its training here with dally practice on the new gridiron now being finished at Sportsman’'s Park. Coach Yost of the Michigan eleven and two men are expect- ed here by the 27th of this month. Interest in the contest between the champion eleven of the Middle West and one of the big California varsities Is strong among_football experts here. Di- rector James R. H. Wagner of the Tour- nament Association is preparing accom- modations for 8000 people. Members of the Michigan Society of Los Angeles and the Alumni of Stanford University have reserved sectlons of the stands and boxes for their use on New Year’s day and indi- cations point to a large attendance. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Dec. 20.— The twenty men composing the Stanford football squad from which the team that will meet the University of Michigan eleven on New Year's day will be chosen left Palo Alto on th: Sunset express to-night for Pasadena. The men are all in excellent spirit and fair physical condition, considering the fact that they have not been in strict training since the intercollegiate game on Novem- ber 9. There are nearly enough players in the squad to form two elevens to op- pose one another in scrimmage work until the day of the game. The team will be strengthened by the presence of Traeger, who it was feared would not be able to play because of sickness. The big fellow is picking up rapidly and by New Year's day will be able to give a good account phin Boating Club will be installed at the annual dinner on Saturday evening, Janu- ary 11. The committee having the ban- quet in charge consi: of W. O. Patch, Fred_Seibel, H. Per: , T. J. Kennedy and V. Kehrlein. The Boating Association of the Univer- sity of California, finding that there is no chance of a rowing contest against Stan- ford University, is making gorgpu-n.flon. te send a four-oared crew to Portland, Or. Pl o e feeii he f e feeling among the football enthu- siasts here is that the cardinal eleven tv"l“l make a good showing against the Wol- verines, although a victory is not hoped for. Stanford’s defense is stronger than its offensive work, and the cardinal sup- porters rely on this ability to withstand attack to prevent a large score being rolled up, such as Michigan ning by during the season.
