LIZELLA LOOMS UP BLACK CAT’S N OMBSTONE II"” has joined the Press Club. The feline is the suc- cessor of the “Tombstone” known to the Bohemian habitues of the old Press Club rooms on Pine street. The original “Tombstone,” a coal- black catof enormous size, perished in the fire that destroyed that historic haunt of professional men some years ago. Ever since the animal’s tragic demise the Press Club has yearned for another cat. Va- rious members, anxious to restore the club to its former standing, have from time to time appeared at the cozy rooms on Eilis street with feline offerings, but the charter members had held old “Tamb- stone” in such high esteem that they re- - e “WHO SAYS | AINT. | THE REAL 2 THING!

Beveral weeks ago, when the board of managers received a communication sei- ting forth that a member was prepared to donate a living image of the cat that had perished, there was excitement in the Press Club. Old-time members took to celebrating and legends of the departed “Tombstone” monopolized the fireplace nat; but while the rejoicing was at its it a war cloud arose upon the hor! The Knockers' Club, a sub-organ zation that draws its membership largel from the late additions to_the parent or- ganization’s roll, saw a chance to make trouble. Chief 'Hammer Thrower Phil Bolger presided at a_meeting of the dis- turbers and it was decided that a tho oughbred cat was not a crying need. Th pronouncement, while receiving scatter- ing support from new members, aroused bitter resentment in the breasts of the Pine-street pioneers. %Cat or No Cat?” the Question. Then for two weeks there was waged factional strife that threatened to disrupt the club. “Cat or no cat?’ became a burning issue. There was vigorous pros: Iyting by both sides and for a time na- | tions, the pedro game and even the agi- ticnal and municipal questions, club func- tation for a free benzine fountain in the nedicine room were forgotten. So bitter became the quarrel that it was feared either faction would walk out in a body in the event of defeat. The board of managers at its meeting | last week solemnly delegated the cat qaestion to the house committee. Then the conflict centered around the commit- tee. When it became known that Chair- man Bonnet favored the advent of “Tombstone II,” while Carpenter and | Trowbridge were opposed, there was glee | in the ranks of the “antis.” This proved | to be premature. Carpenter was induced | by the *“Catomaniacs,” as they were derisively dubbed, to take an extended trip abroad. This left the vote a tie and the board of managers, after much argu- ment, ended the deadlock by voting fa- vorably upon the following application for | membership: Name, Tombstone II; occupation, hunter and trapper: former residence, Niles Canyon: de- honorary; svonsors—C. Horatio Jessen, J. Harrison. Thomas Guise. “Tombstone II” Arrives in a Box. ““Tombstone II" arrived at the clubrooms | on Tuesday in a box with slats nailed | e across the top. Long before the express- man reached the Ellis-street quarters the voice of the prisoner could be heard in_indignant protest at his confinement, When_the slats were removed twenty of San Francisco’s prominent professional men became at once as busy as a poor family suddenly visited by a rich and aged relative. Each wanted to do his share in extending hospitality to the stranger. The cat “sized up the bunch” with a look like that of a prospective Elk awaliting initiation. Then it beat a cau- tious retreat to the jinksroom stage, climbed a ladder and sought a place of safety on the dizzy heights of a rafter, where he remained until fear gave way to hunger. Since it has got over its first scare ““Tombstone II" takes to club life as a matinee girl takes to chewing gum. It has become chummy, Keeps late hours and breakfasts in the afternoon like a true Bohemian, Even those who opposed its advent into the club are relenting and it bids fair to become a fixture, though its somber appearance has something of a subduing effect. The managers have voted a weekly appropriation to provide for its wants, and it already sports a sil- ver collar. @ it e e e e e @ ANGLERS HONOR [ [ | | | { | ‘ { | JOHN P. BABGOCK Members of San Francisco Fly-Casting Club entertained John P. Babcock last night at a_complimentary dinner in the | ?in\'al\e'dlmng—mm of the California otel. Some months since Mr. Babcock accept ed the responsible position of Commis- sioner of Fisheries of British Columbia. | He left here upon short notice for the | north and his former associates among | the fly-casters availed of his presence i | this city, on a brief visit, to honor him. Some of the brightest minds of the benca @nd bar paid graceful, affectionate tribute 1o the worth of Mr. Babcock. Judge John Hunt, Charles 8. Wheeler, Alex T. Vogel- sang and John A. Hosmer were among those who responded to tousts. After the banquet the members voted upon an important measure. Jt was de- cided to hold a fly-casting tournament in August, open to the world. Teams are expected to enter the competition from New York, Chicago, Grand Rapids and other cities. Valuable prizes will be offered. The tournament will be held during the height of the fishing season to afferd visiting anglers an opportunity of enjoying the famous sport which the Truckee and ciher streams afford. | Sec Horace Smyth of the club | could not be present last night, owing to | iiness. A. T. Vogelsang proposed a rising | vote embodying regret, sympathy and hope for the afflicted cne. The members showed deep concern for their associate. President W. D. Mansfield, who acted as toastmaster, proposed the health of Air. Babcock. The latter responded feel- ingly mentioning incidentally’ that 30,00, 0% salmon, which are endeavoring to en- | ier Fraser River, are annually caught and canned, showing the wide field in which | he will exercise his skilk as a fish cult- | urist. Alexander Vogelsang spoke of Mr, Bab- cock as the leading salmon culturist of the | coast and said it was a marked compli- ment to California that he should be selected by British Columbia when the | sireams of this State produce less saimon than do those of any other part of the coast. Jud&e John Hunt rerlled to thé toast, | “Truthful John.” His words were 4 | blending of humor and sentiment. Songs were rendered by W. W. Brackett, Lloyd Spencer and Elton Lambert. Those Dresent were: President W. D. Mansfleld, John P. Babeock, W. E. Brooks, H. Baftu, T. W Brothertonp., W. F. Bogart, John Benn, A. 8. Carman, A. L. Coombs, Joseph Blewett, F. E. Daverkosen, A. B.

Mc- DIELE DEALERS PLAN TO UNITE Members of the San Francisco Cycle Board of Trade and representatives of bicycle interests in all parts of California met at the Assembly Hall in' the Parrott building last night for the purpose of forming a State organization to_control the sale and repair of bicycles. The sub- ject was considered from all points by the various speakers, and the consensus of opinion was that the earlier the dealers orggnlzed the better it would be for the trade. Mayor &chmitz was present and was called upon to address the meeting, both at its opening and close. He said that he was heartily in favor of the movement and in sympathy with the bicycle riders, who are conducting a campaign for better roads. He promised that he would assist the organization by all means in his power, and that he should attempt to se- cure more privileges for cyclists in Golden Gate Park. Supervisor Bent also promised active as- sistance and congratulated the dealers on the success which has thus far attended their efforts in behalf of highway im- provements. 1. B. Allen told of the work which the bicyclists have accomplished in this city and spoke optimistically of what might easily be done for the State if a combina- tion of bicycle interests could be formed. . H. Crippen of Los Angeles, F. M. Jones of Sacramento, K. J. Thebauit of Oakland, C. ¥. Marwedel of this city and others addressed the meeting along the same lines. It was decided to refer questions of or- ganization and membership to committees before taking action. The committees will meet this morning, and those interestcd in the project will assemble at the Parrott building this afternoon to listen the reports and take whatever steps | ma: :eem advisable in view of existing condi- ions.

The game attracted a mere handful of spectators, as it was generally understood ‘there would be but two games this week— to-morrow and Sunday. Frank catcher for the Nationals, failed to ap- pear and “Sandow” Mertes took his place. His opponents were unable 1o steal a base on him and there were no PEieintedt aia th i e sensational playin; of the day. He put out eight menpan‘:i l% credited with nine ‘“assists” without an error. He was in_the two double plays. The: game ended in a_ peculiar manner. Mercer thought he had been called out on a double play and walked away from first base. The ball was returned to Beckley, who tagged Mercer out, much to the laiter's disgust.

LONDON, Jan. 10.—The Sportsman says that Corrigan, the owner of American horses, has been refused a lcense to train on Newmarket Heath. His horses are no longer seen on the heath. This dispatch may explain the sudden determination of the Master of Haw- thorne to withdraw from English racing. He recently said he would return to Enfland to dispose of all his horses in training and not settle down there for the season, as he had previously an- nounced. LONDON, Jan. 9.—King- Edward has entered in 'his name several horses for the Spring handicap, the entries for which were announced to-day. Messrs. Whitney, Keene, Croker and other Amer- icans will be represented in the leading events, all of which are well filled. Sportsmen anticipate the return of the King to the turf will give the sport an impetus which it lacked last year. Governor Otero Is Exonerated. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9—The Senate Committee on Territories spent the greater part of to-day in investigating the charges made against M. A. Otero in con- nection with his renomination as Gov- ernor of New Mexico, These charges were formulated by ex-Delegate Catron, but were read by Willlam M. Berger of Santa Fe. They assert that under Governor Otero the Republican party in New Mex- ico has become a mere cligue and also at- tack the Governor on his business record. After hearing all the charges the com- mittee voted unanimously to recommend Governor Otero’s confirmation. AR German Steel-Makers Are Combining. BERLIN, Jan. 9.—The foremost finan- cial authority in Germany, the Frankfur- ter Zeitung, says the great steel makers cf the empire are forming a combina- tion to include all branches of the steel industry. The Frankfurter Zeitung says also that German concerns have received orders through London for 25,000 tons of splegeleizen for American acerunt. VIR Riotous Demonstrations in Hungary. VIENNA, Jan. 9.—A riotous anti-British demonstration was provoked yesterday at the town of Sal, in Hungary, on the oc- casion of the presentation of Wilson Bar- rett’s play, “The Sign of the Cross.” The police were foreed to stop the play and clear the building. The papers heartily approve of the demonstration. ‘Will Enter the Aerial Competition. MONTE CARLO, Jan. 9.—M. Santos- Dumont, the aeronaut, was asked to-day whether he contemplated entering the aerial competition at the St. Louis Ex- osition. To this question he replied: “Of course, but as yet I do not know the conditions.” SAN NICOLAS WORRIES SOMBRERO, WHILE JOSIE G FINISHES THIRD Green Morris’ Great Colt Homestead Beats Another All-Aged _Ficld. . Winnie O’Connor and Tommy Burns Ride in Rare Form. HE meeting of Sombrero and Jo- sie G in a mile event at Oakland track yesterday attracted more than the average week-day at- tendance, and the big crowd was not disappointed. ; Sombrero, ridden by Lee Jackson, carfied off the honors, while the surprise was furnished by San Nico- las, the Burns & Waterhouse malden. The black fellow was looked upon in the light of a Havana filler pitched in with a choicé box of perfectos. He, too, de- feated the “Queen of Poverty Row,” and, after making all the running, was led out only a length by the Morris colt in 1:30%. The betting favored Sombrero ‘at 0dds of 4 to 5, while the admirers of Josie G, and there were many, got 8 to 5. At the start the last-named filly, piloted on this occasion by Redfern, who was not even compelled to have his hair cut to do the 89 pounds, broke away a trifle slower than usual. Soon moved Into second po- sition, she held it until well toward the wire. The last eighth “Jackson astride Sombrero was busy with hands and feet, ond not until . the paddock had been passed did he overhaul and pass San Nicolas. Under her strange tutor Josie lost the place by a neck. it was plainly apparent that the sympathy and dollars of the_major portion of the crowd were with Josle G, for the applause bestowed on the winner seemed to be of a very mild variety. Four favorites in Quiet, Huachuca, La Goleta and Marshall Neil were added to the beaten list. = Rose of Hilo at 15 to 1 gladdened the hearts of the last-chance bettors when she came in before Marshall Neil in the closing number. Green Morris’ great coit, Homestead, the best three-year-old on the track, again conceded pounds to a field of all- aged horses in the Emeryville handicap, and led them a dog’s life. It appeared to be the consensus of opinion as on the oc- casion of their previous meeting that La Goleta would beat the three-year-old, and the Baldwin mare went to the post fa- vorite. Mounce got in all manner of pockets and, after squeezing through be- tween the inner rail and The Pride in the stretch, dropped the first choice down third. 'O’Connor dodged all ticklish spots with Homestead, winning by nearly three lengths from Rio Shannon, a 12 to 1 shot, in 1:40%. The Pride and Bathos cut out the running to the stretch, where both informaliy retired. A six and a half furlong seiling run opened the sport, with Quiet, a highly touted one from the stable of Walter Jen- nings, closing favorite, backed from 6 to 3. The good thing galioped to the stretch and then began backing up. Tommy Burns on the 4 to 1 chance, Snowberry, did some skillful piloting, winning ridden out from Larry Wilt, a 12 to 1 shot. Ma- relio downed King Herald for the show. Rubus, the fast Bramble filly from the stable of Chinn & Forsythe, earned a nose decision over Huachuca, the even money favorite, for the six furlong run for three-year-olds. Tommy Burns also rode Rubus, making the pace from the start. Mounce made a bungling job of it on the favorite, bringing him from the far rear. Legal Maxim was third.. Old Lizzella, the favorite, won the mile and a quarter selling event in almost easy fashion, covering the distance in 2:05%. nsch, with Dangerous Maid, tried to steal a march on his company, and opened up an immense gap of day- light. ~ O'Connor moved up gradi?lly with the favorite, and, passing the Maid at the head of the stretch. scored without gifficulty from Plohn. The others were strung out in processional style. Night before Bob Smith's horse Mar- shall Neil looked a fit subject to fatten ip an emaciated bank roll, and in the betting on the final sprint_nearly every- body unloaded at 6 to 5. Those who couldn’t get there earlier accepted 9 to 10. When sent away O'Connor on Rose cf Hilo jumped out in front, and, leading from the start, downed the favorite a length. Then followed King Dells, Reina de Cuba and the ferry-boat. po s s Track Notes. A report comes from Australia that “Pi” Ruiz, the California rider, won the big handicap at Sydney on New Year's day. ‘Winnie ©’Connor rode three and Tom- my Burns two winners yesterday. Winnie says that by next week he will be him- gelf again, and “what a pace he will set those other riders.” Unless she meets with some accident, it looks as if Lizzella would be the one to beat for the Thornton four-mile stake. Two miles has only been a gallop for the Morello mare. ’ Following are the entries for this aft- ernoon’s events: First Race—Six furlongs, selling; four-year- olds and upwai 2086 Mary Nance.. 2973 Go Out 2500 Eld 5| 3070 Limelight ...114 -110! 3097 Captivate 102 red- .. ;v 3047 B.

W., WASHINGTON, Jan. $9.—Further trouble between American and Russian sailors and soldiers at Newchwang will be averted as the result of instructions i{esued by both governments. Count Cas- sini, the Russian Embassador, is confi- dent that his Government as well as_the United States has given orders under which'a recurrence of the brawls will be impossible. The Embassador called at the State Department to-day. Like the Secretary, he does not regard the trouble as of any importance, but at the same time he is anxious that there shall be no repetition. Secretary Hay informed him that Secretary Long had cabled instruc- tions_to Commander Barry, commanding the Vicksburg, directing him to take mea- sures for the suppression of all disorder by the men under his command. When Ccmmander Bnn'é';: report is received by the department retary Long will de- termine whether an investigation is nec- essary, and if so he will direct that it be made. Some doubt is felt at the Navy Depart- ment as to whether the instructions to Commander Ty _have been delivered.

After the conference Embassa- dor Tower said that no open questions remained in connection with the affair.
