His mount swerved and Turner, handfiding Alsono apd holding him well together, got the verdict by a head. Weight told on Dei- segno, for he was beaten severai lengths for the show by Donami, the Montana Stable entry. “Doc” Foucon got all the blame for the defeat of Jim Hale by Horton in the mile ard a sixteenth event and poseibly he gdeserved censure. At time there was little choice in the befting between Black Dick and Foucon’'s mount, each being quoted at 9 to 5. Off well at the start Foucon skipped away in the lead with Dick the closest contender. Turning into the stretch the Jatter began -tiring and Hale, drawing away, looked a certain winner. Foucon, in glancing back at the biack horse, did not percetve J. Ransch eneaking up on the rail until too late, when he was beaten out a nose.

C3 March 20.—News was brought by the Aorangi, which reached port to-day, that the British Government had annexed another isiand in the South Seas. The latest “‘grab” of John Bull is Ocean Island. This island, whieh, it is said, had been under the pro- tection of the British flag, was formally annexed during the last cruise of H. M. 8. Pylades of the Australian squadron. The vessel had returned to Sydney shortly before the Aorangi left there on February 24, en route to Victoria, and the commander of the warship announced to the press of the Australian port that he had landed at Ocean Island and planted the British fi there. A ole had been raised, and, as a guard of honor pre- scnted arms, he had ralsed the union {’ack and formally claimed the island on cialf of King Edward VIL SANTA MARIA ISLAND NATIVES IN BATTLE War Party Repulsed in Attack on the Village of Another Pribe. VICTORIA, B. C., March 20.—The steamer Aorangi, arriving to-day, brought news from Noumea of a tribal war on Santa Maria Island. The recruiting ship ketch Marie Henry, which had reached the New Caledonian port from the island, reported that the two parties on the island were engaged in a fierce strife. The ketch had gone to_ the island to se- cure recruits. She found that the village off which she anchored was deserted, the gllalgerunr;:\g|1 ma;l-lched a‘m&u the j\tm- e o a e village of the opposi tribe on the other side of the isfan H nightfall they returned and tha ketch"x compmir learned that a bloody fight h: taken place at the attacked village, which was strenuously defended by its people. There had been heavy loss of life, some risoners were taken and a number of eads of the unfortunate natives were brought back by the attacking rty, who had decapitated the wounded of their enemy before they retired on find- ing that the village could mot be taken. Some of the prisoners were afterward killed and it was understood by those on board the ketch that they were eaten. The tch resumed her voyage next morning, when it was expected there was to be another attack on the village which /the day before had fought off its assail- ants with heavy loss.

Smith of Oakland will referee the Nefll-Ferns affair, and Jim McDevitt, the tlub's referee, will act in the other two bouts. Henry N. Be:(!y by his attorneys, H. W. Sanderson and George F. Francoeur, | applied to Judge Cook yesterday morning | for a_writ of injunction restraining the ciub from holding the fights to-night in Woodward's Pavilion. Thomas 8. Mulvey and W. B. Peel were made parties to the suit. Beatty alleged he was the owner of the pavilion until the night of March 16, whea he was forcibly dispossessed by Peel and an armed following, who had since r tained possession. The Interior of the p vilion was fitted up for a circus, and change it for a prizefight would, it was alleged, cause irreparable injury to the building. The Judge ordered the petitioner to show cause why the injunction should be issued, and the attorneys were heard dur- ing the afternoon. After Francoeur had been heard for ths petitioner Colonel Choynski, on behalf of the club, made a general denial of the al- legations in the complaint. He pointed out that the interior had aiready been transformed for the prizefight, and the club could not be enjoined from doing a | thing which was already done. It had al- | ready been decided that the proper way | to stop a prizefight was by warrant from the Police Courts, and not by injunction. The pavilion had been utilized for years for prizefights, and he ridiculed the idea of irreparable injury being done to the building. | T. J. Crowley on behalf of Peel fol- lowed on the same lines. Judge Cook de- nied the writ. there is a distinct improvement in his condition to-day. His physiclans have promised that if possible he shall sail for England next week. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS CELEBRATE IN CHICAGO Fifty Thousand Members of the Order Participate in a Number of Ceremonies. CHICAGO, March 20.—Knighthood flowered in Chicago to-day with all the | pomp and panoply that mark the broth- erhood of chivalry and secret vows. It was the day that had been set apart as one of jubilee for all Knights of Pythias in the Supreme domain, and 50,000 mem- bers of the order were in attendance. All supreme and grand officers who had been able to reach town 1. time were entertained at luncheon by Grand Chan- celler Charles E, Cushman, in the Grand Central Hotel. There were seventy-five present. / This evening there was a parade 'of many lodges, the march route,lying be- iween the Masonic Temple and the Col- iseum.

These rites were followea ngy mausic from the band and a quartet and addresses. The spectacle at the Col- iseum did not come to an end unti! far into the night. To-morrow the visiting Knights will attend various informal en- tertainments planned for them by many of the local lodges and will return to their homes Saturday. NO MORE SPANIARDS AMONG NEW BISHOPS Vatican Desires to Adjust Philippine Matters in Accordance With American Views. ROME, March 20.—Monsignor Sharretti, the Papal delegate to the Philippines, who is on his way to the islands, will make a brief stop at Washington in order to E sult with the United States Governn‘;ggt in connection with Philippine affairs. The story that he is taking with him a Papal bull providing for the re-establishment of a hierarchy is authoritatively denied. The Vatican authorities intended to hold the matter in abeyance until the situation in the Philippines becomes more settled. 1t is the Vatican’s desire to finally adjust matters in the archipelago in accordance with American views and interests, Therefore it has been decided to appoint no more Spaniards among the new Bish- ops. As a rule of this decision Monsignor ozaleda, Archbishop of Manila, now here, has tendered his resignation and will proceed to Spain, where he will here- after reside. —_——— Embassador Choate Denies Story.
