B. Swift Defeats Walter Fairbanks by the Narrow Margin of One Up in Final LOS ANGELES, March 12.—In one of the longest drawn out games ever played even by amateurs, the Pacific Coast golf championship was decided to-day in favor of A. B. Swift of the Onwentsia Club, Chicago, and also of the Santa Barbara Country Club. He defeated Walter Fairbanks by the nar- row margin of 1 up. The victory car- ries with it a personal gold medal and the cup rests with the Santa Barbara Club until retaken. The game was played in the mud, the recent rains having left the links in anything but good condition. The greens were sodden and the drives carried with them all the mud which could be pasted on the sticks, making it necessary for those who followed the players in the finals to keep at a good distance to prevent being be- spattered. The game was featureless except for its length. Swift led from the start and the players were so far apart that interest was divided among the spec- tators, of whom there was a large crowd. Fairbanks made a spurt, however, toward the last and' closed the game with a narrow score. He was favorite among those who Wwit- nessed the game, which experts stated as hardly a fair trial, considering the condition of the ground. class was hardly up to the the greyhounds were 0 that they furnished epectat har , with scores: e, dbeseddal el Record for California Athlete.

During the last week Britt has done little sparring, but he has hauled and hugged Spider Kelly and Frank Rafael until they imagined they were In the tentacles of an octopus. Britt has observed his next oppo- nent in several fights and figures that the tactics used by the Denver boxer when fastened to his man are wearing and Jimmy promises to checkmate such usage if Young Corbett essays to try it on him. Britt's programme yesterday con- sisted of a trot on the road in the morn- ing and two hours of fast exercise in the gymnasium in the afternoon with the bag, the ipping rope and in wres- tling with Rafael. When it was all over Jimmy was in a healthy glow, and | after being rubbed down and cooled off he withstood a battery of cameras for ten minutes. To-day a large delega- tion of Britt's friends fron the Olym- {ple Club will make the pilgrimage across the bay to feast their eyes on Jimmy in action. Corbett seemed to be of the same mind as Britt yesterday, aS he did an immense amount of wrestling with Billy Otts. It was rough work, and there were several butting matches in which the heads of the athletes came | together hard. Otts came in head | down to save himself and on one ac- casion hurt Corbett, the knees of the little champion shaking under the im- | | pact. | Corbett was bubbling over with good | | nature and was particularly pleased | when he sneaked in some unexpected | uppercuts which sent back the head | of his sparring partner with a snap. | Corbett gave out his weight as being | | 136 pounds. The fat is commencing to | melt off and the muscles are showing under his smooth white skin. As usual, his gymnasium was thronged with | visitors, e e Jeflords Defeats Ruhlin. PHILADELPHIA, March 12.—Jim Jeffords, the California heavy-weight, {and Gus Ruhlin, the Akron giant, boxed a terrific. six-round pout, in which the former had the better of the mill, at-the National Athletic Club to- night. Ruhlin was twice knocked down in the first round and the last time he was sent to the mat he was | compelled to take the count. He got | up groggy, staggering around the ring. Jeffords, in his anxiety to stop Ruh- lin, became wild and many blows aim- ed at Ruhlin went wide of the mark. ————— } Hard Times for Lace Makers,’ | With all France's prosperity lamen- | tations are being raised over the decay of the home-made lace industry, which, says a correspondent, if matters go on as they are going now, will be a lost | art in France. It is pointed out that | half a century ago there were still o | .000 dentellieres in the department of 40 Calvados alone, who their cents a day. In Auvergne there w more than 100,000, while Lorraine reck- oned ‘half that number. Now there are not 2000 of such lacemakers in the whole of Normandy, and Auvergne and earned Lorraine can only show 10,000 It |is to the imitation trade, with its machinery, that the mischief is to | be attributed. Out of fifty Parisian establishments which once gave em- ployment to the women of a single rural district, only three have survived. It seems strange, in an age so luxurious as this, that the passion for real lace, of all things, should be numbered among the has beens. Promoters of a movement to restore the industry, with the aid of the Minister of Commerce, are appealing to fashion to help them out. But they have powerful rivals in the manufacturers.—Boston Herald. ——e—— Oldest Ship, Oldest Crew. There is at present lying at the Brit- ish port of Newcastle a schooner that is supposed to be the oldest ship of her kind sailing under the Union Jack. Her name is the Dart; she was built at Carnarvon seventy-eight years ago, and ever since has been in constant employment. At one time she sailed between Carnarvon and Idverpool; she is now engaged in the coasting trade between Arbroath and ports on the northeast coast of England. The Dart has another distinction be- sides her age. She is manned by the oldest crew sailing the high seas. The captain is seventy, the mate seventy- two, the cook seventy-one and a sea- man sixty-one—a total of 352.

PETERSBURG REPLY TO JAPAN’S NOTE TO POWERS PETERSBURG, March 12, 2:50 p. m.—The following reply, inspired by the Foreign Office to Japan's rejoinder to the Russian protest against the vio- lation of -Korean neutrality, may be accepted ficial: Japan's argument that she was justi- fled in landing troops in Korea before the declaration of war, because she had Korea's permission, and also that these troops arrived in Korea after “the ex- istence of a state of war,” is without value, as Korea in January promul- gated her neutrality to the powers, which received it warmly, Great Brit- ain even officially ernment. Therefore no state of war gave the Japanese the right to violate her neutrality by sending troops into the territory. Even the consent of Ko- rea, though extorted by the Japanese, is without force, from the fact that the bateh of troops was not only before the war, but befcre the breaking off of diplomatic relgtions, as clearly established and indeed acknowledged by the Japanese themselves. Japan's contention, in defense of the attack on the Russian ships at Che- mulpo, that the port was not neutral is false again, because Korea had pro- claimed her neutrality. Japan's denial of malicious interfer- ence with the transmission of Russian telegrams over the Danish cable can- not be sustained.” A telegram to Baron de Rosen, then Russian Minister to Japan, at Tokio, sent from St. Peters- burg on February 4, was not delivered until the morning of February 8. That delay did not occur on the Siberian line, as shown by the fact that a reply to a telegram from Viceroy Alexieff sent at the same time was received the same day. Therefore it {s conclusive that De Rosen's teiegram was held by the Japanese and not delivered for two | days. Communication Rus with Pavioff, then jan Minister to Korea, by the Ko- rean telegraph ceased in the middle of January. As the Koreans were en- joying friendly relations with Russia, there is good ground for believing that | the interruption was due to the Jap- anese. Thereafter Pavioff used a mall steamship or a special warship to com- municate with Port Arthur. The Min- ister of Russia in Korea on February 8 therefore knew nothing of the diplo- matic ruoture. Japan pleads that the charge against her seizure of Russlan merchantmen before the declaration of war cannot stand after the establishment of the prize court. Their seizure after the declaration of war, being piracy, is not defensible by the establishment of the conveying expres- | siong of gratitude to the Korean Gov- | prize court, which cannot exist befcam! SHELL BEHEADS A RUSSIAN BARON'S GRANDDAUGHTER PORT ARTHUR, Friday, March 11.— Last night passed without The Japanese squadron, which disap ;peared after Thursday’'s bombardment and naval fight, has not returned. Th Russian squadron proceeded to sea this | morning and returned this afterncon It is understood that no Japanese ship: | were sighted. | Although during the bombardment : | number of shells from the Japanes: | ships burst in the streets of the towr | the damage to the buildings was com “ paratively slight.

General Stoessel, | the commander of the Russian troops at Port Arthur, and his staff, while | watching the bombardment from a bat- tery, were peppered by splinters from a shell, but sustained no injuries. On Golden Hill Lieutenant Wachtin and one soldier were wounded. Two | sentries on Electric Cliff were wounded. A Japanese ironclad was struck by a Russian shell and slowly withdrew. The bombardment, which was severe, did not cease until 12:45 o'clock in the afternoon. -— | a declaration of war. The steamship | Russia was selzed in the waters of | Southern Korea even before Kurino had presented his note here. The reply concludes as follows: “Our information regarding Japan's | announcement that in future Korea | would be under her administratio: came from M. Pavloff, and aiso from the representative of a friendly power at Seoul. Japan's denial, consequently, | is fruitless, as also is the attempt to | refute our statement that the Russian | Minister and Consul at Seoul were told to leave. As conclusive proofs, in St. Petersburg on February 10 the French Minister at Seoul had officially notified our representatives that the Japanese Government had intimated that they should leave, and that the Japanese had occupled territory in Korea.
