Irwin of Yuba was selected for president of the commission for the first eighteen months of the four years’ term; Judscn C. Brusie of Marin County was elected secretary and J. W. Cavis of San Joaquin County baliliff. The newly elected secrctary is a well- known Republican, who has rendered the party excellent service as a campaign Speaker and ciub ‘ofganizer. He is now 2 resident of Marin County, but formerly resided in Sacramento. He served his constituents in three sessions of the Leg- islature. As chairman of the Ways and Means Committee of the Assembly dur- ing the first session of the Legislature, under Governor Budd's administration, he performed a vast deal of work in au intelligent and methodical manner. He found time apart from his active work as chairman of this important committee to make himself familiar with the lead- ing measures brought before the Assem- bly. Last May Mr. Brusie received appoint- ment as the attorney and general rep- resentative on the Pacific Coast of the | Aetna Indemnity and Bond Company of | Hartford, Conn. As a campaign speaker Mr. Br widely and favorably known. He has ai- | wavs stood ready to undergo the hard- ships of travel over mountains to far distant points in order that the Committee might fulfill its engagements.

Mr. Spear was the chairman of the campaign | committee of the Republican State or- | ganization throughout the contest which culminated in the election of Dr. George | C.

Foul Is Claimed by the Cali- fornian, but Is Not Allowed. The Chicago Man Outclasses His Op- ponent as a Boxer, but Does Not Shine as a Slugger. Lol { Harry Forbes of Chicago, the bantam- weight champion boxer of the world, was given the decision last night over Frank Neil in their fight before the Reliance Club of Oakland. The fight ended in a most unsatisfac- tory manner and amid the utmost confu- What the ultimate outcome would fied to say. When but eight seconds re- mained of the seventh round Nefl was seen hanging limp on the ropes with a look of agony on his face. Fome of the| spectators set up a cry of ‘“foul,” but Referee Eddie Smith would not allow it, saying no foul blow had been delivered. Smith then saild, “Forbes wins!" and left the ring. 3 | In the meantime no one counted time | on Nell, nor did the gong sound the end | of the round. Referee Smith entered the | ring again and summoned Doctors E. M. | Keys, W. W. Kergan and J. M. Shannon to determine Wwhether Neil had been struck in the groin. Upon a cursory ex- amination they could find no ‘discolora- tion nor sign of injury and sald they would note Neil's symptoms for one hour. The boxer was removed to his dressing room and his condition Hoted. ,He was hysterical for a time. When Ahe hour was up the medical men decided that Nell | bad not been struck below the belt but that the blow that caused him to stop was a solar plexus punch. Referee Smith then reaffirmed the decision he had givén in the ring. Many boxing experts at the ringside agree that a foul blow was delivered but | clatm it was purely accidental. All| through the fight Forbes had been using | He started | and simultaneously | Nell rushed into close quarters. The| blow struck low and disabled Neil. The Queensberry Rules say: ““If in the opinion | of the referee a deliberate foul Is commit- | ted by a contestant, such contestant shall | not be entitled to any prize.” ’ It was evident that no intentional foul ‘was committed. The first round found Neil in a sort of trance. He could do nothing with Forbes, | who was peppering him on the head and body with biows as sure as the stroke of a piston rod. The Chicago boy sent right and left to the head repeatedly, but Neil assimilated ail the blows. Néil landed | but one good blow, a left swing to the | ead. [ Forbes kept up his play with the right for the head in the second round. sent his right hard to the body. eil scored several times with a vicious left to the body. The round wound up in a slugging match. The third round was all Forbes', the Chicago midget landing with marvelou rapidity. Forbes opened the fourth round with a stinging right uppercut. There | was a_ slugging match, in which Neii showed to advantage. The 4fth round was a whirlwind affai both boys casting science to the win and sailing in. Neil was seen to better | His bedy blows commenced to tell on Forbes, | who showed a red welt above the belt. Near the end of the slugging Forbes land- ed flush on Neil's jaw, but there was no sting to the blow. In the sixth round Neil landed two left swings to the head before Forbes got go- ing. Forbes then peppered him at long Neil made a whirlwind | i finish in the last minute of the round. | The seventh and last round was a bus one on the part of both boys. It was giv and take up to the time Neil stopped. | Nell has a deceptive manner in the ring. | He often staggers about even when not | hurt. He suddenly wakes up from one of | | these spells and fights like a fiend. He did this several times last night. The total gate receipts were $1724 80. Of | this Forbes receives $610 50 and Neil | $208 50. Dr. Kegan and Dr. Shannon had each bet on Neil. A pleasing incident of the occasion was the presentation by Referee Smith on be- half of the club of a gold watch to Billy Jordan, the veteran announcer. Billy | made a graceful speech in acknowledging | the gift. Caesar Attel was given the decision over Jim Howard after six rounds of hard fighting. The first-three rounds were re- plete with hard knocks, each man being sent down several times. Howard's left eye then went out of commission and he fcught at a disadvantage. Howard woke but could not overcome his big lead. Monte Attel stopped Willie Bourne, in four rounds. The latter went out in his vsual spectacular style.

No fault could be found with the riding of Minder, for the Eastern chap began by crossing the bar first on Hungarian, the one successful work he captured the two-year-old event with Lady Jocelyn' and in the last race downed Iilowaho, the 9 to 5 choice, witn Diderot, a 12 to 1 shot. was good and all of the books did a big business. Inclined to swerve as the barrier was released on the eight starters in the first event, at seven furlongs, Hungarian showed to be plainly the best. As the other riders kindly let Minder through on he rafl, he won easily at the end from Hutch Miller and Nannie Nolan. Sunello, the second choice, ran disappointingly. Jchnny Bullman took the Futurity course sprint, which followed, with The Wezaver, a 5 to 1 chance. Ransch, on Malaspina, made all the running, only to be beaten out a head. There was no muil which militated against the chances of Blackthorn, the favorite, but as it was Chsrley Fink's horse finished a good thira, Some horses do run like scared wolves with apprentices in the saddle and if business keeps up all the old riders will be compelled to seek some other vocation. Kickumbob with Frankie Reed and 98 pounds on his back was quoted as good as 15 to 1 in the betting on the second seven-furlong affair. At any part of it Reed was never farther back than third and then outgaming or outstaying Rey Hooker and St. Rica, won from Parsifal by a neck. Gawaine, the favorite, ran a cheap looking race. A very close finish between Ishtar and Artilla marked the close of the mile and a sixteenth selling number. The former filly had but % pounds and Connell to carry, and after cutting out the pace, lasted long enough to earn the verdict. Carson astride Galanthus, a 30 to 1 shot, |ran a close third. Ward & Harlan made their first start at the meeting with Lady Jocelyn, and through Minder's skillful handiing, the filly was returned a winner. Ransch with the mount on the even money fa- vecrite ThetMajor, looked to have the race well in hand, when Minder slipped along on the rail at the paddock, scoring by less than a length. Little Margaret ran into the show, after displaying a world of speed out in front. But of all the hard knocks received by the talent, the severest of all happened over the result of the closing mile purse run. There were only four starters, with Lord Badge the opening favorite. Later his Lordship resigned in favor of Illowa- ho, which horse closed at 9 to 5. Marque attracted some attention, while Diderot was considered as much out of place as a tramp at a pink tea. For something over half the distance Lord Badge' led, then Illowaho picked up the running and it locked all over. After showing speed and then apparently quitting, Diderot, under Minder’s fast urging, came again, and in a sensational finish grabbed victory by a head. . e, ol gsis e TRACK NOTES.

The safe in the office of the Buffalo Brewing Company, 12 King street, was blown open and $25 stolen. Shertly after 1 o'clock yesterday morn- ing Policeman Michael Whetton was passing the brewing company’s office and saw the window open. Suspecting that scmething was wrong, he climbed through the window and soon discovered that safe- crackers had been at work. The knob of the safe had been knocked off, a fuse in- serted in the hole and ignited and the door blown off. A piece of the fuse was the only thing left to tell just how it had been done. After applying the light to the fuse the cracksmen had retired to the storeroom to await the explosion, as one of the doors leading from the office to the storercom was found open and it had been previously closed for months. Whetton notified police headquarters and Detectives Reynolds and Bell hurried to the sceme. An examination showed that the window had been forced open with a “jimmy.” The drawer in the safe containing the money, about $255 in gold and silver, had been forced open and the money stolen. It is supposed that the money had been carried away in the cover of a typewriting machine, as the cever is missing. Matthew Bohnert, a stableman, is sup- pesed to sleep in the stable adjoining the office, but he was not there when the detectives arrived and did not turn up til] FEDERAL GRAND JURY MAKES PARTIAL REPORT Indicts Two Persons and Presents Ignoramuses in the Cases of Three Others.

Jan Lee, a Chinaman living at Pleasan- ton, was indicted for selling cigars on which the internal revenue tax had not been paid. The cases of the following named were ignored: Huntley Rider, a cook in a cheap res- taurant on Kearny street, charged with Laving passed counterfeit money in change to his patrons; Jacob Fishel, charged with violation of the game laws by importing several dozen grouse from Salt Lake in the close season; Captain Williem Ellis, charged with having shot John Fitzgerald in the neck on board the American bark Elwell on the high seas.
