8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1902. TRYING TO GET LIGENSES BACK Marine Engineers Deny That They Went on Strike. Steamship George W. Elder Crippled by Men With- aut Grievance. —— Supervisiig Inspector John Berming- ham yesterday took up the appeal of three marine engineers, whose licenses were revoked on October 11 at Portland Ly the United States inspectors of steam vessels because the engineers had left the steamship George W. Elder on a staike, thereby crippling the ship and delaying her at that port. The first appeal called was that of First Assistant Engineer J. F. Sullivan, whko lives in Berkeley. He was represented . by Attorney Harry W. Hutton. Captain Conway of the George W. El- der testified that the resignations of the three engineers were ed to him with- in twenty-four ho ter the ship ar- rived at Portland. E them because the proceeding was unusuai and he helieved the conditions attached to the resignation were arbitrary and un- Just. 0 remain on the steamship if the com- pany would agree to pay them $2 per hour. They had made no complaint at all about wages ¢ had received no in ; were going to tender their resigmations. A Mr. Benson, representative of the Ma: rine Engineers’ Beneficial Association, who had been sent from San Francisco 1o Portland to try to settle the strike of the river engineers, was in Portland at the time. When the men on the Elder resigred, Chief Engineer Houghton quit work and when the captain asked him what he would do if non-union assistants | were employed he replied that he would not work—that he would not be allowed to work with non-union men. Inspector Bermingham asked Sullivan why he had left the steamship at Port- Jand when he could have returned home in her if he wished and when he had no complaint as to wages or treatment. Sul- Jivan replied that he had shipped only temporarily and that he had expected to - job at Portland. He admitted n handed him a written resi sked him to sign it and that he did so livan would not admit that there was a strike. The case of Assistant Engineer McKen- zie will be taken up at 1:30 p. m. to-day. McIVOR TYNDALL WILL TRY MARVELOUS FEAT | Mind Reader and Exponent Psychic Phenomena to Prove Power of His Gift. Dr. McIvor Tyndall, the celebrated mind reader, will perform one of his won- derful feats to-day. quested to repeat the he performed on his last visit here sev- eral years ago, and which nearly ended his ‘research psychic phenomena as well as his life. A committee of prominent citizens, in- cluding A. XK. Coney, the Mexican Con- sul; General R. H. Warfield, Newton J. Tharp, William Greer Harrison and Clar- ence Leavy, will serve as judges. The remarkably gifted doctor will ride blind- folded through the streets of the city at noon to-day in company with another well known citizen. The latter will se- lect at random a name from one of the hotel registers, and McIvor Tyndall, us- ing his remarkable power of thought reading, will, after a circuitous drive around the city, ride straight to the hotel chosen and place his finger on the regis- ter opposite the name selected. A similar feat came near costing the doctor. his life in San Francisco. After driving four horses through' the streets while he was blindfolded he remained in & trance which lasted seven days. Phy- sicians at the time pronounced ‘him dead. e —— of MINISTER WU TING FANG TO ARRIVE HERE SHORTLY Southern Pacific. Officials Have Been Notified That He Will Sail for China. Southern Pacific officlals have received word that ex-Chinese Minister Wu Ting Fang will shortly arrive in this city. He will sail on the Nippon Maru on the 25th inst. for China. He is accompanied by an imposing suite and a large retinue of servants and will travel across the coniinent in a special car.

Favorable Action Is Taken on Two Applications for Reinstatement. — NEW@YORK, Nov. The annual meeting of the Athletic Union began in this city to-day. The delegates present represent. the Y. M. C. A, the Metropol- itan, Central, Western and Southern as- sociations and the Canadian A. A. U. The treasurer presented his report, showing a balance on hand of §2000. The | question of a better definition of an am- ateur was referred back to the commit- tee which has been considering it and in- | structions were given to report at the | next annual meeting. The same commit- { tee was instructed to compile a “blue | book™ of decisions for reference. | A number of changes were made in the rules\governing swimming and pole-vault- | ing competitions and water polo games as follows: The plunge shall be a standing dive, made | headfirst from a firm takeoff, i. e., starting coard from spring, the body to be ‘kept mo- tionless, face down. The start shall be made | with one or both feet on the takeoff. No | means of propulsion other than the momentum | | gained by the dive will be allowed. The | plunge shall terminate when the face of the | contestant appears above the surface of the | | Zntecr e the expiention oe ity asconi | | Which' shall be the limit of.time allowed. The | time shall start when the contestant leaves the | | takeoft, At the finish of each trial the contestant shall Jeave the water as quictly as possible, at | the opposite end of the takeoff. Any one dis- | turbing the water so as to interfere with the following contestant shall be disqualified. The | distance shall be measured from the fakeof | o a line drawn across the farthest point reached by any part of the contestant's body, | | baving both ends equally distant from the | takeoff. Each contestant shall have three | | | | | trials; " the farthest plunge shall win. In scratch contests the competitors shall be given ore more trial. No record shall be aliowed | where the top of the takeoff is more than thirty-six inches from the top of the water. RULES OF POLE VAULTING. Pole ‘vault—The height of the bar at the | starting and at each successive elevation shall be determined by the officials. Three tries | allowea each height. Each competitor shall make an attempt in the order in_which his name appears on the programme. Then those who have failed shall have a second trial in | regular order and those failing on this trial skall take their final trial. Displacing the bar counts as a try. A line shall be drawn fifteen feet in front of the bar and parallel with it; crossing this line in an attempt shall be a balk. Three balks constitute a try, Leav- ing the ground in an attempt shall constitute a try. A competitor may omit his trialg at | any height, but if he fails at the next helght | he shall not be allowed to go back and try the height he omitted, The poles shall have no assisting devices excepting that they may be wrapped or wound | with any substance for the purpose of afford- |ing a firmer grasp, and may have.ome spike | | | at the lower end. No competitor shall during his vault raise the hand which was upper- most when he left the ground to a higher oimt on the pole; nor shall he raise the hand which was undermost when he left the ground to any point on the pole above the other hand. Ties—In case of a tie the officials shall raise or lower the bar at their discretion, and | those competitors who have tied shall be al- | lowed ome trial at each height. In handi- caps where a tle occurs the scratch man, or | man with the smallest account, shall be given the place. Rules of witer polo—The ball shall be the regulation white rubber association football, not less than seven inches nor more than elght | inches in diameter. The goals shall be spaces | feur feet long and twelve inches wide, marked “goal” in large letters. One shall be placed at either end of the tank eighteen inches above | the water line, equally distant from either |side. To score a goal the goal must be touched by the ball in the hand of the oppos- ing player, and the greatest number of goals shall count game. The ball shall be kept in or as near the surface of the water as possi- ble and shall never intentionally be carried un- | der water. No.goal shall be allowed when | scored by an under-water pass. The contesting teams shal! consist of six on a side, with two reserve men who can be substituted at any time when the ball is not in play. A player withdrawn shall not return to play. Only six prizes shall be offered. Time of play shall be sixteen minutes actual time, divided in two halves of elght minutes each, | and five minutes rest between halves. Time occupied by disputes, free trials, for goals, re- pairing suits and lining up afier a goal has been scored shall not be. reckoned as time of play. The captains shall be playing members of the teams they represent, and shall toss for choice of ends of tank. The ends shall | be changed at half time. The referee shall throw the ball in the center of the tank and the start for the ball shall be made only al the | sound of the whistle, NO INTERFERENCE PERMITTED. | A ball going out of the tank shall be return- { ed to the place from which it-was thrown and | Biven to the opposing team. A mark shall be made four feet from each goal on the side of the tank and an imaginary line between these marks shall be called the four foot line. | No man will be allowed within this line until the ball is within it. The goal tenders on the side are exempt from this rule. When the ball is within the goal line the goal tenders shall not be allowed any artificial support other than the bottom of the tank. No player 15 allowed to interfere With an opponent unless such an opponent is within four feet of the ball, except when the ball is within the goal section, when indiscriminate attacking will be allowed in the goal section. The goal section o be a space of four feet by eight feet with- in the goal line and distant two feet from either end of the goal. Upon a goal being gain- ed the opposite teams shall go to their own end of the tank and the ball shall be thrown by the referee into the center of the tank and play started as at the beginning of the game. Each team shall have two judges, one at each | goal line. who, upon a goal being made, shall notify the referee and announce the same. Only in case the judges disagree shall the ref- | eree have power to decide whether a goal be fairly made or not. The referee shail decide all fouls, and if in his opinion a player com- mits a foul he shall caution the team for the first offense and give the opponents a free trial for goal at each succeeding foul, It skall be a foul to tackle an opponent it the ball 1s not within four feet of him, or to hold him by any part of his costume. It shall be a foul to cross the four foot line ahead of the ball unless forced over by an op- ponent, or to hang on the sides of the tank except for the purpose of resting. Unneces- sarily rough work may, within the discrimina- tion of the referee, either be counted a foul, or the referee may put the offender out of the tank until & goal is scored o ‘the half ends. The delegates considered a large num- | ber of applications for reinstatement. The only ones acted upon favorably were those of Robert MacArthur and R. B. Cornell, both of San Francisco. The officers elected for the ensuing year are: President, Walter H. Liginger, Mil- waukee Athletic Club; a number of vice presidents, including W. B. Hinchman, San Francisco; secretary,. J. E. Sullivan, Knickerbocker Athletic Club; a d of governors, including James E. Sullivan, chairman, and W. B. Hinchman, M. de Cota and Herbert Hauser, San Francisco.

B Foley is already in training for the con- test, having been working with Jimmy Britt and Eddie Hanlon over at Croll’s Gardens for the last two weeks. It was originally intended to bring off the Burns- Foley contest on November 21, but owing to Burns' late arrival, Billy Lavigne, | imb” players. 11t FAVORITES AND SECOND CHOICES GATHER THE GOLD AT INGLESIDE Failure of Honiton to Live Up to the Reputation He Was Given Permits the Bookmakers to Recoup the Losses Made by Them Earlier in the Day---Ring Is Hard Hit by AVORITES and second choices got the money at Ingleside track yesterday afternoon. Had Honi- ton, the public choice for the closing event, come home first the bookies would have had a disastrous day, but as it was they had the greater part of their carlier losses returned on this race. The closing event was clearly the most interesting race of the day. It was a five and a half furling dash for two-year- olds, and seven crack youngsters of the West were entered. Because of his reputed fast trials Honiton was made the favorite. He warmed up strong before the race, and the railbirds went to him like it was all over. Then the clubhouse commissioners began to arrive with great chunks of Honiton money,, and Ris price ‘was driven down from 2 to 1 at the open- ing to even money at post time. A world of money was bet on this youngster, even at the closing prices, but, like many other good things, this one went wrong. The horse was beaten out a length on the post by Durazzo, the unbacked second choice. Off in front, Durazzo led all the way. Turning into the stretch it looked/ as though Durazzo had fouled the favor- ite by cutting him off, but no official cognizance was taken of the matter. The Fresno contingent, headed by, A. Blasingame, made an old-time hog-killing | in the fifth with the horse Grafter, a four- year-old by Cicero-Leap Year. A cart- load of money was dumped in on this horse at 2 to 1, and he fully lived up to the confidence his’ backers had placed in him. Off none too well, he lay third un- til the stretch turn was reached, where i little Lee Jackson, who had the mount, let go his head and ne cantered home an easy winner by two lengths, beating Le- gal Maxim, at 10 to 1, who had made the pace under sufferance, and Louwelsea, who was heavily backed by the ‘“on-the- Legal Maxim is a prom- ising looking gelding, and form players will do well to keep tab on him in the future. 0Old Jim Gore the Second, who has been campaigning through the country for many seasons past uatil now he is in the aged class, made those behind him in the opening race look like a triplet of 10-cent pieces. All the Gore family live in mud. is their Prince Albert. So when the layers chalked up 2 to 1 against the horse the bettors went to it like hungry wolves after an inoffensive lamb._ One dian’t have to be as wise as a treeful of owls to understand that 2 to 1 against Jim Gore in the mud when pitted against the aggregation he met yesterday was peaches and cream. ‘“Doc” Rowell's Mon- tova and J. H. Shields’ St. Philippina came in for a little outside play, but the Gore horse carried the package, Montoya took the lead at the start, and opening a gap of five lengths held it until the stretch turn, when the Gore horse ‘moved up under “Monk” Coburn’s superior hand- ling, passed’ the tired leader and won easily by two and a half lengths. Mon- toya was second and the Shields filly was third. The fourth event, over the Futurity course, a $400 handicap for four-year-olds and upward, went to The Pride, Tom Ryan’s fast six-year-old. The ring was hard hit by the winning of this horse, Ryan and his friends getting their money on in bundles at 5 to 1. So strong was the play on the winner that his price was knocked down from fives to even money at tlosing time. There was some play on old Gibraltar and Edinborough, but small in comparison with the betting on the favorite. The Pride won from start to finish and was eased up in the last sixteenth. Phil Crimmins and his friends got down good on the winner. Sir Lewis in the second acted as though he had been dosed with some of the “oil of joy.”” With Hand-riding Kelly on his ! back he passed the stand going to the post in a dead gallop and before he had gone 100 yards he was beyond the lad's control. He ran away a mile before thne boy could ease him up. He finished last in the race, which was won by Loyai S at 5 to 1. Nuggett was second and St. Rica third. Nellie Forest captured the third event, winning handily from Goldone and Fili- buster, who finished in the order named. Forest beat the barrier, was away flying and never headed. She is a likely looking filly and will beat better ones. Her forte is_sloppy going. The day was beautiful and a good crowd was in attendance. The track was heavy and sloppy next to the rail. It dried out considerably during the afternoon and if no more rain falls it will doubtless be in good shape for to-day’s events. TRACK NOTES. Articulate, the horse which made the ten consecutive winnings at Washington Park this summer, arrived at the track Saturday. “Iceman” Spencer and Nash Turner have left New York for the coast. They will be seen in the saddle here soon. They will spend a few days in Texas bear- hunting before coming here. James Scanlan has been appointed press agent for the Ingleside track. He also represents the New York Morning Tele- graph here. ‘W. L. Oliver, the famous Eastern turf- man, is here with Badge, who will start in a few days. Hand-riding Kelly is getting back to his old form again, his ride on Windward in the fifth being especially creditable. He was suspended for ten days, however, for breaking through the barrier with ‘Wachusett in the first race, Jockey See will contribute $25 toward the disabled jockeys’ fund for his mis- behavior at the post on the horse Gib- ralter in the fourth race. The judges didn’t like Tuberville’s ride on Matt Hogan in the fourth and he was called Into the stand and cautioned to quit dreaming when astride a horse’s back, Maurice Eppinger came near making a clean-up, but the defeat of Polonius in the final event took a reef in his sails. L L a s S R R R RIS SWINDELLS WILL COACH STANFORD BALL TOSSERS Re-Engaged After a Successful Sea- son With'the Northwestern STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 17— Charlie J. 8windells, Stanford 02, who coached the cardinal basebail nine, has again been engaged as coach. {Swin” was a strong favorite with bo the team and the student body generally last season. He took his baccalaureate de- gree from the law department May, and during the summer has been playing in the Northwestern League. Swijndells has had an enviable record both on the Stanford nine and the Oakland, Los An- geles, Tacoma and other professional teams on the coast. Treasurer Harry Edwards and Coach Swirdells agreed on terms to-day, and the latter will take active charge of the team with the be- ginning of next semester, 4 Captain Fred Brown, '03, of the baseball nine had the ball candldates out for their manager of the club, decided to pos it until after the Erne-Britt fight, first regular fall practice this afternoon. _| The fact that there were thirty men on — Winning of The Pride THE CALL'S RACING FORM CHART.

Fine Trim. | | Both Boxers Are Confident of Winning the Decision. P e Frank Erne, the hard hitting, shifty Buffalo boxer, and Jimmy Britt, the local lightweight marvel, are rapidly rounding into condition for what promises to be | the greatest battle of the year between light men. The bout, which takes place before the Ycsemite Club in the Mechan- ies’ Pavilion on Thanksgiving eve, is at- tracting widespread attention throughout the country. It means much to the stur- dy California youth and much to Erne. | Besides the winning share of tremendous- ily big gate receipts, Britt will, if he proves himself the master of the famous | Buffalo lad, become the recognized light- ‘weight champion of the world, it being conceded by most good judges of the box- ing game that Gans cannot get lower than three or four pounds above the light- weight limit—132 pounds—at the ringside. .ERNE LOOKING WELL. Erne, who is preparing for the contest at the Reliance Club, Oakland, is within a day’s training of the specified weight or this fight, 135 pounds, and he looks igger and stronger than he did when he knocked out Dal Hawkins in this city two years ago. He has supreme confi- dence that he will take Britt's measure withodt much trouble. He figures that his superior cleverness, hitting powers and ring generalship will counterbalance Britt's strength. Jimmy Britt is at Croll's Gardens, and he does not seem to be the least bit worried over the task he has set out to perform. Britt is already in superb condition. He is being looked after by “Charlie Reno”’'and De Witt Van Court. Spider Kelly and Tim McGrath go across the bay to Britt’s headquarters every day to give their sound advice. Fully fifty people visited Britt yesterday and watched him go through his daily routine, which was considerably enlivened by several warm boxing bouts. BRITT AND “THE TOOTHPICK.” After working an hour at the bag, Britt donned the mitts with Harry Foley for four fast rounds, and without resting he boxed two more with Spider Kelly's “Toothpick.” Britt looked like a pigmy alongside the giant, who is improving daily in cleverness, Erne’s quarters are daily besieged with scores of visitors, principally Eastern racetrack men, among whom the Buffalo boxer is a great favorite. He goes out on the road in the morning in company, with his trainer, Frank Zimpher, and cov- ers about ten miles. In the afternoon Erne does his gymmasium work, consist- ing of shadow boxing with dumbbells, skipping the rope and punching the bag. He ‘has cut boxing out of his routine for the reason that he does not wish to take | any chances of injuring his hands. The Yosemite Club is preparing to seat one of the largest crowds that has at- tended a contest this year. Both boxers have scrupulously clean records, neither of them having ever been mixed up in a shady contest during his entire ring career. CRICKETERS ARRANGE MATCH WITH VISITORS Eighteen Californians Will Do Battle With Visiting Eleven Captained by Lord Hawke. At a meeting of cricketers held last night at the Occidental Hotel in this city it was decided that a match should be played on Wednesday, November 26, on the Presidio athletic ground, between Lord Hawke's eleven and eighteen play- ers representing California. Arthur Ink- ersley, secretary-treasurer of the Califor- nia Cricket Association, was appointed financial manager of the match. T. W. Tetley, Henry W. Brown and A. W. Wild- ing were appointed a committee on enter- tainment. H. C. Casidy, W. Petherick and H. B. Richardson are the committee on ground, and H. C. Casidy, Harold Ward and E. G. Sloman the committee on the selection of the California team. F. Ben- nion and Arthur Inkersley have charge of printing and advertising. The selection committee chose the fol- lowing cighteen players: H. F. Elliot, H. R. Elliot, H. V. Keeling, H. G. Macart- ney, C. L. Enderly, H. B. Richardson, E. G. Sloman, D. B. Bowley, G. Harold Ward, F. J. Croll, B. Bird, F. Stahl, John My- ers, H. C. Casidy, C. P. Coles, A. W. ‘Wilding, F. Bennion and D. Jamieson. Eight substitutes were chosen in the fol- lowing order: A. Hoskins, A. Jenkins, T. TU. Tetley, W. Petherick, Harry Bird, E. T. Langdale, V. Seebeck and C. R. Peter- son. Consul General C. Bennett of Great Britain, Captain John Metcalfe, Edward Brown and the captain of the eighteen constitute a reception committee to meet Lord Hawke and his team on their ar- rival. There will be practice next Satur- day and Sunday on the Alameda cricket ground and a captain will be selected at noon on Sunday by the members of the eighteen and substitutes then present. —_———————— Cardinal’s Salt Lake Team. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 17.— The cardinal football eleven appeared on .the gridiron this afternoon for their first preliminary practice before they leave for Salt Lake City next week to meet the Utah team. The team will not engage in hard practice, but will devote its time to signal practice and other light work. Captain Lee sald to-night that thirteen of the fourteen men who played against California would make the trip to Salt Lake. The fifteenth man —Left Tackle Sprott—will be unable to go, and it is probable that Shields, his substitute, will take his place. e ORI e Gerken Gets the Blue Ribbon. NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—Alfred Gwynne ‘Vanderbilt was beaten again in the horse show this year for the blue ribbon for four-in-hands. The judges gave the blue ribbon to John Gerken. The red went to Vanderbilt. W. Seward Webb, also rep- resenting the Vanderbilt family, was luckier, however. His Bonito, a hand- some bay, was easily first in the class for saddle horses. F. Ambrose Clark, Bishop Potter’s new millionaire stepson, captured first and fourth in the middle-welght hunters.

Huge Buck Becomes Frenzied and Makes Furious Attack. NI With his hands grasping the horns of a maddened buck and every moment ex- pecting to be gored to death, William M. Leland, the keeper of the deer inclosure in Golden Gate Park, had a thrilling fight for his life yesterday afternoon. That he is still alive and not fatally in- jured is due to his ability to keep his presence of mind in a dangerous situa- tion. Keeper Leland is a brother of Coroner Leland. It is his custom to enter the deer inclosure at 5 o'clock each afternoon to feed the animals. When he eéntered yesterday afternoon he took with him a load of new mown hay. The big buck, ‘which usually gives the keeper no trouble, was evidently in a great rage. He dis- régarded the feed enmtirely and made straight at Leland, as if he meant to gore him to death on the spot. Leland fortunately saw the frenzied brute rush- ing toward him and he managed to get directly between its antlers and seize a firm hold of the prongs. In this manner Leland saved his life. The buck, now almost wild with baffled fury, dashed him against the ground. Leland’s side was badly bruised. He managed to hold on, however, and the fight between the man and the brute lasted for several minutes,” Finally when he was almost ready te give up, Leland got a chance to secure a heavy stick. With this he struck the deer across the nose and kept it at bay until he could reach the,gate and get outside of the inclosure. Leland was thoroughly exhausted. He was taken to the Park Emergency Hos- pital, where the .contusions on his side were dressed. He was subsequently re- moved to his home at 933 Geary street and the family physician summoned. The buck that attacked Leland is a very powerful animal. Hitherto the an- imal has behaved very well, and its keep- er is at a loss to account for its murder- ous outbreak, further than at this time of the year, which is known as the “run- ning season,” bucks are restless and ugly of temper. —_— Think They Know Deceased. Two soldiers, Charles Smith and Arthur Clements of Compapy 2, casual camp, at the Presidio, think' they know the man who was found in a dying condition from alcoholism in the rear of a saloon at 423 Bush streét on the night of November 12 and who'was removed to the Central Emergency Hospital, where he died the next day. They think the deceased was their sergeant, Whiteman by name, but cannot say positively. They account for his change of apparel, he being found in working clothes, from the fact that they met him on the night of the 1ith and he told them that he had taken a room with another man who got up ahead of him in the morning and exchanged clothes with him, taking his uniform. 5 ————— Corbett and Boyle Fight a Draw. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 17.—Young Cor- bett and Croecky Boyle of Philadelphta sparred six rounds to-night at Washing- ton Sporting Club. That Boyle stayed the limit was a surprise to the spectators. After the first round he appeared to be Corbett's equal and fought gamely. In the first round Corbett floored Boyle twice and seemed to be playing with his oppo- nent. In the second, third, fourth. and sixth rounds, however, Boyle made an ex- cellent showing, surprising both the spec- tators and Corbett. In the fifth round the fighters mixed it up and honors were even. —_————— The weekly mail to the English army in South Africa is 204,000 latters. ADVERTISEMENTS.
