L e e T ) ARMY OFFIGER PRAISES MILITIN Report of Government Inspector Has Slight Censure. Aladdin, Special Dispatch to The Cali. SACRAMENTO, Oct. 2.—According to Major A. C. Ducat of the Seventh In- fantry, United States army, the National Guard of California is in good shape, but needs a bit of instruction in camp duties, Major Ducat, who was detalled by the adjutant general of the army to visit the encampments of the Californix militia, to-day filed a voluminous report with Governor Pardee. He chides the soldiers for military sins of omission and com- mission, running from failure to air their blankets to appearing in front of a fash- ionable hotel at Coronado in ridiculous costumes. With respect to the Sixth Regiment, camped at Santa Cruz in August, Major Ducat sald the drills were not good and the arms generally were in bad condition. Tents were defaced by names und marks and in some cases the men wore on their blouses no less than three kinds of but- tons. The major discovered that the officers of the Second Infantry had a sideboard, where they could get liquid refreshments by paying for them pro rata, but there was no canteen for the men. Major Ducat reports that the First Regiment, encamped at Santa Rosa, did its work well. He noted that the Fifth Infantry, at Camp Warfleld, Healdsburg, appeared to fair advantage, although the camp was a little untidy, and the soldfers had no chaplain, no target practice and no practice marches. Hats were worn in all shapes and positions and the men were ese faults, he pointed out, corrected by the officers. He u-‘lr:: that the idea of serving claret punch to the men after drill was an excellent. one and there was no drunkenness.

Later Charles Goodman, the colored trainer and ex- steeplechase rider, the gelding's trainer, was ruled off the turf. time to study up on prescriptions. It was ladies’ day again, but the attend- ance was not as iarge as usual. There | was no harness event and of the six run- ning races favorites took four. Iva Powell is the Odom of the game down here and about every mount of his is installed favorite by the bookmakers. { He had the leg up on Ismad, a brother to Dr. Shorb, in the opening event and at odds of 3 to 2; the gelding displayed about as much speed as a legless man climbing Mount Lowe., Connell played a one-night stand out in front and then retired. In the run home Martin Brady, the second choice, ran circles around his field, beat- ing Honduran and Bicycle six open lengthe. This marks Schreiber's first wins at the meeting. . Miss Vera, piloted by Powell, captured the seven-furlong affair next decided. On dope her chances did not look so easy, but Powell used excellent judgment, landing the mare an easy winner over Iras and Teufel. Achilles received wise backing, but disappointed his admirers. On the strength of her handy third to | Kenilworth and Blissful in the Pasadena | stake, Durbar looked a good thing for the third number, a five and a half furlong spin, and was held an even money chance throughout the betting.

Knapp brought Mir- acle II from behind, disposing of Dug Martin for place honors. Position had some early speed. There was no pronounced favorite for the five-furlong scramble, fifth on programme. It resolved down to a driv between Mary Nance and Neti.e May, and See on the former mare outgeneraled Kunz, getting a nose verdict. Roltaire finished third and with better racing luck could have won. A mile and a quarter selling run, for which Chub ruled favorite, concluded the sport. Cambaceres cut out a merry clip for more than a mile. Then, under Pow- ell's urging, Chub responded, finally being returned a shifty winner over El Oriente in 2: Erne was never a contender, F. E. MULHOLLAND. THE SUMMARIES.

The Polytechnic High refused to play | Lowell yesterday at the Presidio athletic | | grounds. The “Pollys” claim the sub- | final championship and therefore forfeited | the game. At a meeting Saturday morn- ing it was decided that Lick, Polytechnic and Lowell should cast lots to see which | | should play first. It fell to Lowell to meet | Polytechnic and the winner to play Lick | to-day. The “Pollys” agreed to play, but pro- tested on the ground that they were en- titled to the sub-final championship. Her- bert Gould, president of the Amateur Ath- | | letic League, advised the team not to play | Lowell, as by so doing it would forfeit its | protest. Mr. Gould, it is-said, exceeded | his authority considerably by such advice, for, it is claimed, Polytechnic has lost to | Lowell whether its protest is accepted or not. The referee called game and the Lowell i team kicked off to empty flelds. Lowell and Lick will meet this after- noon. e EMPLOYERS TO CONFER. | Delegates From Many Cities to At-} tend Meeting in Chicago.

Special Dispatch to The Call. NEWPORT, R. I, Oct. 26—Mr. and Mrs, Peter D. Martin ran the risk of a serious accident to-day to save a care- less wheelman from being padly hurt. In their automobile they dashed upon the sidewalk opposite the Casino, escaped a stone wall by only a few Inches, and .| while Mrs. Martin in great fear clung to her husband's neck, lest she be thrown from her seat, he gulded the machine safely around the bicyclist until he reached the middle of the street again. Mr. and Mrs. Martin were riding up Bellevue avenue in their automobile when a runabout got in their way. Martin turned out sharply to avold it, but only to find In his path a man on a bicycle, riding so close to the vehicle that he had not been seen. The runabout, the automobile and the bicycle were going 8o fast that neither could stop and there was nothing for Martin to do but make another sharp turn to the left, which carried his automobile up over the curb- stone.

Sexton, president of the | Western League, and R. R. Burke of The most important work of the day was the decision establishing the absolute right of the major leagues to draft play- ers from the minor leagues, and when this matter was settled it carried with it | results affecting most of the twenty-one | contests presented for players. | Two additional rules, Nos. 24 and 25, were added to the national agreement. Rule 24 provides that each club must | send to the secretary of the national com- mission before August 24 in each year a | list of its purchased players and that no | one on such list can ever be claimed after | that date. Rule 25 provides that there shall be no purchases of releases of players made during the drafting period and that such purchases would not be allowed as against the draft of any such players. It was held that section 8 of the national agreement was conflicting with section & and a definite Interpretation was made so that the drafting perfod will be from Sep- tember 1 to October 15, with no sales per- mitted during that time. After the commission adjourned the fol- | lowing official document was given out: | Regarding the contention of the committes representing the National Assoclation relative | to zales, agreements, purchases and contracts | for and’ with players for 1904, made prior to September 11, 1908 it is contended by Messrs. Powers, Farrell and Sexton, the committee that represented the National Association when the national agreement was adopted, that all sales, agreements and purchases and contracts for and with players for 1904 by club members of sald assoclation, made prior to September 11, 1908, the day of the adoption of the national cannot be disturbed | | | | | | | agreement providing for the drafting of play- ers does not apply to these cases. The members of the committee have given this question & great deal of consideration and We are of the unanimous opinion that the con- tention of the committee of the National Asso- ciation with respect to this matter is not jus- tified by any provision of the national agree. ment nor by any action of the representative of elther party to its discussion at Buffalo and Cincinnati previous to its final adoption. —_— SHIP TWO BROTHERS MEETS WITH MISHAP Vessel Sticks in Mud on the Co- lumbia and Begins Leaking. ST. HELENS, Or., Oct. 26.—The ship Two Brothers, which left here for San Francisco a few days ago with a cargo of lumber, is in bad condition, although she will probably be able to reach her | destination safely. The Two Brothers was at Vancouver, | ‘Wash., for nearly two months, taking on lumber. Finally it was decided to bring the vessel to St. Helens and complete her cargo, but a large part of the lumber had to be unloaded to enable the vessel to be moved. The vessel draws eighteen feet and two towboats drew her along the bed of the Columbla River where the water was sixteen and a half feet deep. After the vessel had been anchored here for about three weeks it was diseovered that she was leaking, but the break could not be located. The vessel then made ready to pull out, although she lacked about 200,000 feet of having lumber enough to complete her 1,500,000 feet cargo. - — JORDAN EXPLAINS.

Owners of Fast Ones Are|Major League Given Right to|Lightweights to Box Nex: Month for Coast Honors The Board of Supervisors yesterday granted a soecial permit to the San Francisco Athletic Club to oring off a boxing contest in this city on Nevember 10. The only member thai voted against the permit was Supervisor Brandenstein The permit was granted in order to al- low Jimmy Britt, the local lightweight, and Charley Seiger, the Itallan boxer, to battle. They were scheduled to meet iast month, but a week before the ntest Britt injured his foot and the bout had to be declared off. In order to bring a meeting of the pair friends of Britt the club secured the special permit Britt has recovered from his injury is now in training. He played ha: at the Olympic Club yesterday aftei with Sammy Berger, the crack amateur heavy-welgnt, and beat him in g¢lever fashion.

Local sportdom is interested in the meeting to-night at the Rellance Club, Oakland, between Joe Millet and Al Wei- They will box fifteen rounds and the outcome will be watched with interest, as the winner is likely to be matched with the victor of the Fita- simmons-Gardner contest. ’ Millet is well known in local atbletic bout and | eircles and he appeared in many contests here before he went to Honolulu. His | appearance to-night marks his advent in professional circles and the bout is sare to be a lively ome, as his opponent is known as one who can stand plenty of punishment. Millet and Weinig have trained faith- fully for the contest and there has been plenty of betting. Most of the wagers are at even money and it is doubtful if odds will be offered either way. The first preliminary to-night will be between Jack Evans and Fred Turner, the bout being for four rounds. The prin- cipal preliminary will be a ten-round con- test between George Brown of the West Oakland Club and George Carter of Stockton. Both men are looked upon as clever and aggressive fighters and a lively go is expected. BAY CITY CLUB CONTESTS. Good Programme Is Offered to Patrons To-Morrow Evening.
