AND KEAR Y STREETS Opp. C Building all he has relatives elsewhere | SAYS PASSAGE OF BILL WOULD WORK MUCH HARM | - Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Aszso- ciation Cpposes Proposed Label Law. The Manufacturers’ and Producers’ As- clation sent a communication to the | Legisiature yesterday protesting against | the passage of Senate bill No. 854, which requires that every article of trade made | in the State be conspicuously labeled with the manufacturer's name and address. It is held that this measure would curtail or prohibit the production of many arti- of common us If the bill should pass, bricks, spools of thread, bottles, machinery and, in ct, ever of ifornia make would have to bear the label. The asso- | ciation holds that if the provision is made |a law and is enforced business will be paralyzed. The law could not reach the articles manufactured in other States and there would accordingly be an unjust dis- crimination agalnst the progressive men of California. It is thought that the authors of the | bill did not fully appreclate its scope. —_—ee————— i Miss O’Neil’s Testimonial. | | | | | The testimonial to Miss Nance O'Neil, which will be tendered her on Friday at the Grand Operd-house, promises to be one of the important events of the the- atrical season, since the patrons number some of the most prominent of San Fran- cisco’s citizens.

Bates, the New Heavyweight, Creates a Favorable Impression. L S The championship hoxing tournament of Olympic Athletic Club opened auspiclous- 1y last night in the club gymnasium. The sport was conducted on a plane in keep- ing with the standing of the club. When a boxer seemed outclassed, the bout was humanely stopped. Referee Eddie Graney, in his tuxedo, struck the keynote and all else was in harmony with it. If there was a jarring note, it was in the appearance of some of the seconds, who seemed out of place in tne setting in which the bouts occurred. The spectators were drawn from the class of gentlemen sportsmen who are seldom seen at a ringside unless a heavy-weight championship bout is up for decision. Thirteen bouts were decided without any friction. While one palr of boxers was leaving the ring, another pair was usually entering. The decisions in all but one bout were secured decisively. The exception was in the contest George Gibbs and L. Anders. At the ex- piration of three rounds an extra round was ordered. The judges gave the decis- ion to Gibbs on his showing. William Bates, the new heavyweight, created a favorable impression. He 1is clever, quick on his feet, and hits a pow- erful blow. He put Louis Balletro out in the second round. ‘The bout between J. F. McCarthy and R. J. Calrns, two hard-hitting light- weights, was one of the best of the even- ing. McCarthy was nearly knocked out of the ring with a hard left swing to the head In the first round. He recovered and punished Cairns severely. The fight was a desperate one thruughout, the de- cision finally going to McCarthy. George Gibbs and L. Anders, two men in the 12-pound class, put up one of the best bouts of the night. At the end of three rounds the judges ordered an extra rcund of two minutes. This wound up in a slugging match. The judges gave the bout to Gibbs. Referee Graney tween Willie Carroll and J. Bradshaw, two bantamwelgths, in the second round. He awarded the decision to the former, who outclassed his opponent in science. Frank iwards and Al Everett, ban- tams, put up a sensational bout, the for- mer winning in a round and a half. Ev- erett was the aggressor in the first round and seemed a likely winner, until Ed- wards unwound a dangerous left which Everett could not dodge. Willle Edwards and George Robinson, two spidery youths, put in three busy rounds, Robinson winning on points. The referce stopped the bout between George Finnegan and Richard Gordon in the third round, awarding it to the for- mer. The winner proved a veritable fight- ing machine. His opponent was a tall, lathy youth, who could not hit a hard blow, but who was game to the core. F. Everett and Larry St. Clair fought themselves out in one round. Neither man had a hard punch or the bout would beve ended any moment. The referee stcpped proceedings in the second round, as St. Clair was too weak to continue. Paul Martin won from Rudolph Mora- vec, but made a disappoiniing showing as compared with previous fights. W. J. Leonard cleverly outboxed T. Sul- livan, stopping him early In the second round. Leonard kept his left in action all the time and Sullivan could not dodge it. Jimmy Little knocked out Jack Eagan in_the second round of a one-sided bout Jimmy Kane outclassed Jack Lyons. The bout was ended in the second round. Joe Angeli won easily from Joe Reilly in the second round. All the boxers still in the tournament must weigh in again to-day and each day at 5 o'clock until they are out of the competition. The officials are: Referee, E. M. Graney; judges, W. M. Cartwright, Stewart Carter; timer, F. R. Butz; clerk, G. A.

WAS NOT TO BLAME FOR MARY NELSON’S DEATH Charge of Involuntary Manslaughter Against P. A. Morbio Dismissed. The case of P. A. Morbio, 988 Hayes street, who was arrested on complaint of Deputy Coroner Fennell on a charge of manslaughter in connection Wwith the death of Mary Nelson, his servant, by gas asphyxiation, was called in Police Judge Mogan's court yesterday. The de- fendant was represented by Attorney Garret McEnerney. Gas Inspector Tupper related a conver- sation he had with the defendant, in which the defendant had explained that he had made an’ addition to his house where the girl slept and the gas fixtures were a failure. The defendant said he had notified the girl not to use the gas and provided her with a lamp. Deputy Coroner Fennell admitted that he found a lamp in the room when he went for the body. The Judge dismissed the case, saying there was absolutely no evidence to sus- tain the charge and the defendant was fully exonerated, between | stopped the bout be- | FEBRUARY 11, 1903 SPORTS OF THE RACECOURSE, THE PRIZE RING AND THE TENNIS COURTS “YOUNG CORBETT” ARRIVES TO TRAIN FOR BOUT WITH HANLON Little Denver Champion Makes a Favorable Impression anq Is Sure to Become Popular With the Followers of the Ring.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. 10.— Thé senior class baseball team, composed | almost entirely of varsity players, scored an easy victory this afternoon in a seven- inning game with the 1904 class nine, the score being § to 1. Parker and Ball, the varsity battery on the 1%1 varsity nine, played their old positions for the ‘03 team, while McGilvray, varsity catcher, caught for the juniors. “Jimmy” Fritch did the slab work. But for a bad throw by Crawford, the shortstop and captain for the fourth year men, the game would have resulted in a whitewash. The teams lined up as follows: '03—Ball, Parker, Roosevelt, Cowden, Brown, Copp, Crawford (captain), Lowenthal, Moore, Knight.
