In the morning game at Oakland the Ponies won by bunching their hits in the third and fifth rounds. Cutter, out- side of these two disastrous periods, had the goods and delivered them in good shape.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 3L—Los Angeles took another game from Oakland to-day before one of the largest crowds of the season. Cristall had two bad innings, the second and the fourth. To make matters worse in the fourth, Oakland’s infield went to pleces and any sort of a bunt was good for a base hit. After the fourth only one hit was made off Cristall, but the game was lost and could not be pulled back. McPartlin _was hit hard, but clever fielding kept the score down. He began to let down in the sixth, how- ever, and Mar!ei'1 sent his handy man Jones in to clinch the game. With per- iect support Jones blanked the leaders for the remaining three innings.

The annual tennis tournament for the champlonships of the coast will commence to-day on the courts of the Hotel Rafael. The first event will be called at 10:30. This will be the men’s doubles. Thirteen teams entered and were drawn as follows: Preliminary round—R Whitney and Tom Driscoll_vs. Simpson baugh and Trow- bridge Hendrick, to play at 30 a m Chet Smith and Archie Way vs. Grant Smith | 2nd Drummond MacGavin, at 10:30; Percy | Murdock and Harry Wiehe vs, Paul Jones and R. J. Davis, at 12:00; Henry Fuller and Alfrea Alfonso Bell and Louls Freeman, ,_ at 12:00. First round—Harold Crowell and Willlam Collier vs. the winner of the match between Whitney and Driscoll and Sinsabaugh and Hen- drick, at 2:00; Robert Variel and partner vs. James Britton' and Fritz Overton, at 2:00, In the upper half of the card the teams with the best chance of reaching the finals are Whitney and Driscoll, Smitn and Mac- Garm and Wiehe and Murdock. In the lower half either Freeman and Bell or Brittan and Overton will surely reach the finals. This will in all probability bring together the strongest team from the north against the strongest from the south. Britton and Overton and Freeman and Bell will reach the semi-finals with- out an effort. The ladies’ singles tournament was scheduled for to-day, but will not begin until to-morrow, as the Sutton sisters will not arrive until late this afternoon. G. Touchard carried off the second class honors on the Golden Gate Park courts yesterday. He had for his opponent in the final George Janes.

D. Tennyson, met a violent death some time last night. This morning his cabin was found a heap of smoldering ashes and in its midst the charred remains of .the old man. The circumstances surrounding the case are very suspicious. The opinion now held, after a casual investigation, is that an enemy killed the old man and burned the cabin to cover up the traces of his crime. Moore was a man of unhappy disposi- tion and inclined to have trouble with his neighbors. Among the rough moun- talneers were men who disliked him much, and it is thought that some of them must have committed the deed. The Sheriff has been investigating the case to- dey, and more light may be shed on the occurrence to-morrow. Pumphouse Is Blown to Pieces. SCRANTON, Pa., Aug. 3L—The pump house of the National Washery at Mi- nooka was blown to pleces early to-day by dynamite.

There was some quick scoring, making the points 4 all. Pocatelli then gradually drew away, winning ultimately by a score of 13 to 7. Coursing authorities pronounce Pocatelli the coming greyhound of the coast. He has all the qualities to make a sensational turity that these fears were groundless.. The greyhounds were all good and will raise the standard of the sport for months to come. The majority of those in the running yesterday will compete for the John Grace challenge cup in October.

OCATELLI, owned by George Nethercott of Sacramento, proved the fleetest of a grand collection of young greyhounds vesterday afternoon at Union Park in the third renewal of the Interstate Coursing Club’s Cal- ifornia Futurity. This illustrious son of the mighty Emin Pasha met and defeated the stake favor- ite, Belle Free, in the deciding course. He had previously beaten Roving Author, Renegade Apache, Twirler and Rubber Ankles, three of them representatives of Pasha Kennels. Belle Free secured a “bye” course in the morning owing to Fine Cut having been withdrawn. In the next round she was entitled to a ‘“bye,” being the last of the fifteen dogs left in. In the next round she beat Viking and then met New Home Boy, one of the fast- est hounds in the stake. She beat him after a long course in which she fell heav-’ SRR performer—speed, gameness and staying power. He will be the last son of Emin Pasha to compete in the Futurity and is expected to perpetuate the name and the blood of that grand greyhound. In addition to Emin Pasha's son the progeny of the imported English dogs Fortuna Favente and Fetter Free distin- guished themselves. J. H. Rosseter's For- tuna Favente-Brilliantine litter, which in- cludes Rubber Ankles, Renegade Apache and Ready Address, acquitted themselves creditably and will be heard from later on. In the opinion of coursing authorities the puppies which competed yesterday are the highest class seen since 1898. In that Vvear there were many grand young_dogs, including Luxor, Mac's Melody, Young America, Rock Island Boy, Victor King, Golden Russet, Rocker, Billy Gladstone, Rathbone, May Flower, Wait A Little and others. Sthee then there has been a fall- ing off in quality and fears were ex- pressed that the breed of greyhounds was SOME WELL-KNOWN CHARACTERS WHO ASSISTED IN THE RUNNING OF THE COURSING FUTURITY. $6250 as the breeder.

Reports from the training quarters of Morgan Willlams, the Colorado boxer, and Young Peter Jackson indicate there should be a “hot time'’ at the Acme Club, Oakland, on Wednesday evening. Since his arrival Wiiliams jhas created a favor- able impression at his training quarters. His long reach and hitting power should overbalance Jackson's ability to take pun- ishment. Many men who have seen Wil- liams at work at his training quarters think he will make short work of Jackson. Spike Foley and Young Dixon will meet in a six-round curtain-raiser. The prelimi- nary to the main event will be six rounds between Fred Bell of San Francisco and Young Choynskl of the Acme Club. For its boxing programme on September 16 the Reliance Club has signed Frank George and Toby Irwin for a fifteen-round contest, winner to take all the purse. The men have each deposited $250 as a side bet in addition to a $100 forfefr, Frank McConnell and Louie Long have also been matched for a fifteen-round bout on the same evening. ————— SALARIES ARE SLASHED IN DAWSON OFFICES Northern Commercial Company Finds It Expedient to Reduce Its Ope- rating Expenses. TACOMA, Aug. 31L.—From headquarters in San Francisco orders have been sent to the Yukon River that the operating expenses of the Northern Commercial Company must be cut nearly in two. To carry out this decision Manager Wash- burn was sent north and arrived in Daw- son two weeks ago. Since his arrival there Manager Mizner, for several years in charge of the company’'s affairs .in Dawson, has resigned, as have also two bookkeepers and cashlers. The salaries of all other employes have been reduced. The pruning system has been enforced In every department, resulting in a large monthly saving. During the boom days the company made large profits, along with other trad- ing companies, and high salaries were es- tablished. Lately, through competition and otherwise, the profits have been re- duced, and the company now insists that expenses be similarly cut down. Other resignations are looked for. It is expect- ed that Manager Washburn will visit the company’s other Yukon posts to enforce the same policy there. Boer Generals Arrive in London.
