He is preparing for his bout with Eddie Hanlon on Fri- day night at Sheehan’s Beach Tavern. He went a long journey on the road vesterday morning, boxed with Cyclone Kelly in the afternoon and was at work in the gymnasium agaln last night. He is paying particular attention to his breathing apparatus, as his muscles of fron need but little tuning up. The lure has been held out to him face track record bY @ QUATter ) that it he beats Hanlon he can have match with “Corbett next month. You watch me drop him.” There has been no betting on the | fight up to the present time, but from the inquiries being made it is thought Hanlon will open an 8 to 10 choice. There i& not the same maglc in the name of Broad that there is in that of Champion Young Corbett, so the man from New Orleans will be on the long end apparently throughout all the bet- ting. A number of sporting men are going out to Broad’'s quarters at the beach to-day to see him in action. He prom- ises to take on any aspiring boxers who may appear. Hanlon is attending strictly to busi- ness at Alameda and expects to be able to go at any pace Broad may set, whether it is boxing or slugging. e Cordell and Seiger to Meet. OAKLAND, Jan. 26.—The contest between Jack Cordell and Charlie ger, which has been postponed will take place to-morrow night at the Reliance Club gymnasium. The men will meet at 135 pounds and will box fifteen rounds. The jpeason of the last postpone- ment was the inability of Seiger to make the weight in time. When it was found he could not possibly get 133 pounds Cordell offered to give away two pounds, but even this was too much for Seiger, so the contest had to be postponed. Seiger required weight. et i MOTIONS OF GARNETT'S ATTORNEY ARE DENIED Request That Court Reporter Be In- structed to Transcribe All Tes- timony in Case Not Granted. Advantage is being taken by Attor- ney W. D. Grady ef every technical- ity to delay the trial of Alexander B. Garnett, charged with the murder of Major J. W. McClung in the apart- ments of Mrs. Lillian Hitchcock-Coit at the Palace Hotel. Grady concluded his argument be- fore Judge Lawlor yesterday morning on his motion to set aside the infor- mation on numerous techmical grounds and at the request of the Dis- trict Attorney a continuance was granted till Saturday to enable him to answer the points advanced by de- fendant’s counsel. A motion was then made by Grady that the court reporter be instructed to transcribe all the testimony taken in the case, the transcript to be used by him at the hearing of his applica- tion for a writ of habeas corpus for Garnett’s release before Judge Cook on February 8. The Judge promptly denied the motion. Grady took an ex- ception and made another motion that the reporter be instructed to trans- cribe the testimony on his motion to set aside the information. The Judge declined to pass upon this and Drady took an exception. —————— WILL ISSUE PAMPHLET ON COMING BOND ISSUE Supervisors’ Printing Committee Pre- pares to Invite Proposals for Do- ing City’s Official Advertising. The Supervisors’ Printing Commit- tee yesterday decided to prepare specifications and invite bids on next Tuesday for the printing of a pamph- let explanatory of the proposed bond issue for free distribution. The pamph- let will contain the several ordinances relating to the bond issue, the City Engineer’s reports on the same and such other information as will prove of interest to the taxpayers and those contemplating the purchase of bonds. The committee ordered the prepara- tion of a resolution directing the clerk to advertise a notice inviting sealed proposals for doing the official adver- tising for the year commencing Apxil 1, 1904, and ending March 31, 1905. The petition of the Fire Commis- sioners that certain frames be bought to contain the rules and regulations of the department, to be placed in fire- houses and theaters, was re-referred to the commission, as the Finance Committee declines to take the money for the purpose out of the urgent ne- cessity fund. —_—— TAKING A PHOTOGRAPH DISPLEASES A PRISONER SAN LUIS OBISPO, Jan. 26.— Deputy Sheriff Y. McFadden took the alleged robber of the Wells-Fargo ex- press car to a photograph gallery to- day and had his likeness taken. The man made vigorous objection. The officers here confirm the reports regarding the suspect’s name being ‘Walter . McGuire. W. S. Templeton, formerly a Southern Pacific mechanic here, but now master mechanic on the North Shore line at Sausalito, recog- nized the picture and remembered meeting the man when in Guatemala a few years ago, where Templeton and McGuire were both employed, Mc- Guire as an engineer. SAD SAM YELPS LIKE A WILD COYOTE AND JANE HOLLY TAKES HIS SCALP My Surprise the Only Winning Choice at Oakland Track. Atwood Defeats The Cure---Mendon Finishes in Front of a Clever Field---Nullah Disposes of the Fast Ulctma ———— Sadness and gloom were deplcted on the features of every Oregon and Washington sport after the last race vesterday at Oakland. Sad Sam, the “idol of the bushes,” a 13 to 20 favor- ite, was beaten by Jane Holly. If Joe Yeager knew the anguish the victory of his mare caused he would probably cause his name to be en- rolled as a member of the vast army of sympathizers. When betting on Sad Sam the speculator has a slight “shade” to begin with. wood and gall to a sport—maybe. As usual Sad Sam bent his field | away and it looked all over, for E. M. Brattain could not get within hail- ing distance of him. In the stretch, though, Hildebrand caught him with Jane Holly, and if the Emeryville poundmaster had been present he could have snapped up a dog without a license. When Sam began to snarl northwestern and growl Joe Yeager's mare skim- med by him, winning in the fast time of 1:123; for the six furlongs. Mo- corito was third. FIVE FAVORITES LOS) If a bookmaker could not win yes- terday he should try farming or some other vocation. After the win of My Surprise in the first event the five fol- lowing favorites all took the count. My Surprise started for the first| time in the colors of his new owner, J. N. Mounce, and made good first rattle out of the box. Hildebrand had the leg up and the gelding closed equal favorite with Puss in Boots. Creed- more led for a quarter, when My Sur- prise took the lead, and, in a hard drive, beat Flyer a neck on the wire. Puss in Boots was kept busy beating | Dr. Sherman, a 60 to 1 shot, for the show. Possibly Atwood was best of the six starte: in the seven-furlong selling recital for three-year-olds. That is a matter of conjecture: At any rate, Jimmy Jones, who rode the colt, was allowed to cut out his own pace and he was ridden out in 1:26%. Behind followed The Cure, the 7 to 5 favorite, astride which Larsen rode a ridiculous race. Instead of crowding on sail and making up his ground gradually, he waited until the head of the stretch was reached before it struck him At- wood might win, and then he grew bu Instructor finished third and Ethel Abbott fourth. NULLAH BEATS ULCTMA. Milt Jones’ Rollick, favorite for the Futurity course sprint, was never prominent and ran unplaced. Ulctma, a to 1 chance, with Larsen up, breezed along out in the lead, but “‘dogged” it when nabbed by Nullah and was downed nearly a length. Brennus ran a close third. There was some semblance to class among the starters in the mile and a sixteenth purse run, and it furnished the prettiest contest of the afternoon. The race had a most open look, and when Stuyve finally closed favorite there was plenty of 18 to 5. Ben Mac- This is worm- | BS48, Dhui, the opening choice, receded from 2 to 5. Tommy Burns, with Jockey Club, made a bold bid for it, the geld- ing leading to the paddock almost be- fore flashing distress signals. There he was passed by both Mendon and bothsayer, the former getting a head decision. The winner closed at odds of 434 to 1. Dell Fountain’s Targette once more finished second. The filly was an 8 to 5 chance for the fifth number and finished second to Moalta, a 10 to 1 shot, with Jack Martin up. Forest Fire, at 60 to 1, ran into the show, and if away better could possibly have won. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Atwood, winner of the second race, was bid up from $500 to $1200 and re- tained by the stable. Hildebrand piloted two winners. Riesca, a starter in the fifth event, was one of the hottest tips of the meeting, being played from 40 down to 4 and 5. The mare was also heavily played in the Chicago poolrooms. She does not call for much. ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.

Ex-Congressman Julius Kahn has received a letter from Hon. C. H. Keep, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, stating that goods may be withdrawn from bonded warehouses without the payment of duty for ship- ment to Guam. This reverses the ruling of the Treasury Department made November 20, 1901, prohibiting shipments out of bond to Guam, Tu- tllllfl. and the Philippines on the ground that the islands are under the jurisdiction of the United States and that exports from bond could only be made to foreign countries. On March 8, 1902, Congress passed the Philippine act, which extended the privilege of exporting goods from bond to the Philippines. Now the Treasury Department has extended the privilege to Guam and will doubt- less, if application is made therefor, extend the same privilege to Tutuila. This privilege does not, however, embrace the shipment of goods for drawback, nor with remission of in- ternal revenue tax. It applies only to imported foreign merchandise in bonded warehouse. — 5700 A Capp & A e ber Rentuicks siabie) (Bm)’l!ymnerd‘l (Cflnl) 5838 *Achilles (McCabe & Co. ———— “Bridge Whist,” “Five Hundred” and all other tally cards, “Military Euchre,” "Flllleh i “Plnie." “Pit” and fll the ne' T VoIl & Cow T8t Matker ., AT | the purchase price was $240,000, CLAN FRASER HONORS THE MEMORY OF Entertainment Including Tableaux and Scottish Songs Given at Na- tive Sons’ Hall.

Burns, he said, rose from a lowly pe- sition to a high one, and if people had been as anxious to discover his vir- tues as his faults the world would have a different impression of him.

Eight miles of this line is un- der trackage. Mr. Kinney's share of the Huntington-Harriman share $60,000, all of which was paid in stock of the Los Angeles Pacific at a dollar above par.

They are urged on by the remarkable interest shown in polo this year as evidenced by the number of European playe™s who have made a pilgrimage to this coast and by the large number of spec- tators which have witnessed the games each week at Burlingame. It is expected that further develoo- ment.of the sport will result in benefit to this State, as some of the best ponles have been bred here and the supply at present falls far short of the demand. In discussing the advantages which this State will derive from the develop- ment of polo Secretary T. A. Driscoll said yesterday: “If our plans carry a large number of wealthy people will be attracted to California each winter, many of whom may become permanent residents, and all of whom will be liberal money- spenders. They are sure to become ad- vocates of the superior climatic ad- vantages of California. Wherever they go they will sing its praises and they will be persons whose opfnion counts for something.

SALEM, Or., Jan. 26.—A dispute as to the right to possess the famous pacing stallion Diablo, valued at $5009, cul- minated to-day in the arrest of C. D. Crookham, a prominent horseman of San Francisco, on a charge of larceny. Diablo was owned by William Mur- ray, a horseman of Redlands, Cal., who died recently. Before his death he leased the stallion to Samuel Castro, a stockman well known in Oregon. Upon his death title to the animal passed to his widow. She has refused to recognize the lease, and following a lengthy cor- respondence Crookham came to Salem to-day and demanded possession of the horse upon an order signed by Mrs. Murray. Upon being refused he went to the fair grounds, broke open Diablo's stable and took away the horse. The arrest followed before the animal could be shipped away, and Crookham was released on his own recognizance until to-morrow morning, when he will be tried before Justice Horgan. Attorneys have been employed on both sides and a warm contest is expected. The whole question apparently hinges upon the right of Castro to hold the horse under his lease. PSS N e LOTTERY MEN INSTITUTE CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS ‘Warrants Out for Arrest of Two Men for Grand Larcemy by Trick and Device. Metzger & Franklin, the lottery firm, has instituted eriminal proceed- ings against E. F. Holmes and H. Schubach, the two men who succeeded in securing a\check from them last Friday for $7500 on an alleged bogus coupon. Holmes, who came from St Louis, engineered the scheme, and it is said Schubach, whom he met on the train, was used by Holmes to ass him without Schubach being aware of the fact that everything was not in order. Yesterday M. C. O'Connor, 42 Sec- ond street, an employe of Metzger & Franklin, swore to complaints befor: Police Judge Conlan charging Holmes and Schubach with the crime of grand larceny by trick and device. Holmes did not leave the city and defled the lottery man and police when a de- mand was made upon him to refund his share of the money, part being in coin and part in a draft on New York. Schubach went to Los Angeles. but upon learning that there was a dispute about the transaction returned here voluntarily, arriving yesterday. After consuiting with his attorney, S. M. Shortridge, Schubach surrendered to the police and was immediately re- leased on bail. Schubach says he is innocent of any wrong, and the facts indiéate that, too. Schubach was arrested last night by Patrolman Fontana on Market street on a charge of grand larceny and sub- sequently released on a $10,000 bond, furnished by an indemnity company. — e A six months’ cruise will decrease the speed of a ship 16 per cent.
