There was nothing unusual about the sport at Oakland yesterday unless i} was the spectacular win of the mile and fifty yard selling number by Charley McCafferty’s recent acquisi- tion, Idogo, A’ piper virtuoso from Big Jim's opium squad could scarcely figure the brown gelding a chance on his preced- ing race, when he finished behind Blackthorn, Decoy and Billy Moore. Still, with C. Sniith replacing Bonner in the saddie and 15 to 1'in the betting ring, he blazed a new path through ! the heavy going and won, buck-jump- {ing, from Rim Rock, another rusty looking outsider, backed down from 200 22 For a time it looked as if it might take a donkey engine, block and tackle to haul In the dereliet 6 to 5.favorites Mr. Dingle, but he eventually finished in last positton. 1 CASSIE W SCORES. | Playing favorites was again a pre- carious business, as Cassie W was the one public choice to live up to expec- l tations. The track, of course, being in a muddy condition, left a loophole for | many excuses. The attendance was good and betting brisk. James Nealon's fillie Cassie W, a 2 to 1 favorite, captured the first event, a five and a half furlong selling af- | fair. Bonner had the leg up and, tak- |ing matters quietly to the stretch, sed the tiring Dr. Sherman and Amasa, winning easily by more than a length. Dr. Sherman was as good as 50 to 1 and took the place from Amasa by a head. My Surprise showed some speed, but failed to stay. | Unless J. T. Sheehan mends his ways pa and ceases indulging in so much rough] | riding, he is.apt to find himself in | trouble before long. He had the mount |on Pirelia in the two-year-old dash | and, striking the stretch first, turned | wide, interfering badly with Knapp on | the favorite Saccharate and Escobosa, the second choice. It worked the fa- | vorite’s downfall, for the filly was downed a neck by J. Daly on Esco-| bosa. Anaurus ran disappointingly. HOCEO BY A HEAD. Carelessness or overconfidence on the part of Mountain cost the black mare Criss Cross the third race. Dell Foun- tain’s Salto, the 9 to 10 favorite, did not get away from the barrier any too | well, but worked his passage to the front on the far turn. In the run home | Mountain, astride Criss Cross, went by the favorite and at the end of the stand it looked shoes to plates she would land. But Mountain apparent did not observe Crosswaite creeping up the inside with Hoceo and lost the decision by a head. Five to one could | have been had about the winner. Dr. towell's Harbor had many friends, but the three-year-old retired early in the struggle. Jimmy Coffey’s Galanthus retired the | favorite, Mimo, from business in the | fifth, one of the best betting events of the afternoon. Besides the two horses mentioned, Reeves, Molto, Muresca and Whiskers were all accorded support. Roach went out in front with the first choice and stayed there ds long as possible. Less than a furlong from the | judges Roach was compeiled to draw his whip and Buxton beat him out rather easily with the Coffey entry, a 7 to 1 shot in the ring. Vanderbout came from behind with Colonel Van, leading Reeves out for show honors, Muresca lacked staying qualities. Crosswaite rode his second winner of the day when he placed Tommy Lot- tridge’s alden Gateway across the line first in the concluding mile sell- ing run. Twelve to one could be ob- tained about the green one, which beat | the favorite Anirad out less than a {length. Hulford cut out the running | for seven furlongs, when he tired, fin- | tshing third. | NOTES OF THE TRACK. Little Crosswaite piloted two winners, Hoceo and Gateway. The latter was as | until the last race belonged to the maiden class. | Hello! Who is it? What? Wait till you get your dope book. Well! who is | that talking? Heiny. Oh! yes, up in | the grocery store. What's the trouble? Say. on der low up vat happeninged to dot Meister Dinkle horse, in der fort race? Did he got on dose free lunch | plates? Or vot you call it? Bar plates? Or did he vair yoost saucers yet? Oh! der yudges look out of dot race. Vell, dot’s all right den, so long as dere vas investigationing it. I had a feefty cent | combination and Meister Dinkle put it on der bum. All right. Good bye. The Thornton stakes at four miles, which calls for endurance as well as | speed, will be the attraction at Oak- land this afternoon. At least five will | start. The clever handicap horse Ho- | ratius with Powell up. will unquestion- abiy be the favorite. Veterano is a use- ful perférmer in heavy going and wili be piloted by Jack Martin. Mike Daly | will have a try for the rich prize with’ the three-year-old Sailor Knot, which | will be ridden by W. Daly. Rio Shan- | mon won this race last year and might repeat. Jimmy Coffey said Buxton would probably ride his horse. The record, but might prove the surprise crowd home after the races. ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.

There are six races on the card, ranging in distance from three-six- | teenths of a mile to one mile. Robert | Leighton, the clever handicapper for | the association, has readjusted the weights and exciting contests are ex- pected among,the miniature - thor- oughbreds. Thomas A. Driscoll will take the place in the stand of Thomas H. Wil- liams as presiding judge, the presence of the latter being required at Oak- land track owing to the stake race. C. D.

Start FOR ANOTHER CUP RACE Practically Asks That Reliance, Con- stitution and Columbia Be Barred From Future Contests. NEW YORK, March 18.—The New York Yacht Club officials have replied | to the letter of Sir Thomas Lipton in which the Irish Baronet asked if the club ‘would accept a challenge for a race for the America’s cup under the new ruie of measurement of the club. Sir Thomas Lipton in asking if the club would accept a challenge under the new rules practically asked the club to bar the Reliance; Constitution and Co- participating in future races for the cup. These boats could not be used as defenders, because the present rules of the club limit the draught of any boat to eighteen feet, and these three draw 20 feet each. It is understood from club members who have a knowledge of what the committee agreed upon that the latter intimated to Sir Thomas Lipton that the club does not cross a bridge until it comes to it, and that it has no power to say what It will do in the event of a challenge being received and can make no agreement with any one which shall govern future contests. ———————— Skagway's Water Pipes Frozen.

PLEASURE CRAFT ARE TOSSED ABOUT Shores of Tiburon Lagoon and Belvedere Cove Strewn With Evidences of Gale i Rarely has so much havoc been wrought among the pleasure craft of San Francisco Bay as was done by the storm of last week. The shores of Sausalito, Tiburon and Corte Ma- dera Creek teil an eloquent story of the violence and destructive force of the gale. Broadside on the beach of the main street of Tiburon is the big yawl Aca- pulco, formerly the schooner Dolphin of the Vallejo Yacht and Boat Club. | The little sloop Venture was hauled up on the beach at the time of the storm, but the stays were knocked from under her and she was battered about. R. N. Whitney's little launch, after losing everything except her en- gine, was thrown against the plank walk leading to the Corinthian Club- house, where she formed an excellent breakwater for the cottage that abuts on the walk. Her coaming was bat- tered off and a big hole stove in her, but she can be repaired. E. F. Sagar's sloop Edna, moored on the Emilie’s chain in front of the Corinthian Club house, rode the storm out with- out damage. The sloop Phoenicia, upon which her owner has expended a great deal of work and considerable money dur- ing the winter, was carried against the bows of the old schooner Tropic Bird where she pounded hard, suffering much damage. The Mikado, on the other side of the Tropic Bird, was car- ried against a cottage, the end and one side of which were completely ripped out, nearly everything in the cottage being destroyed. To scuttle her and prevent her from doing fur- ther harm, a dynamite cartridge was discharged in the sloop, which now lies a wreck on the beach. The apron of the Olympic Boat Club house was carried away. The Tropic Bird lost an outside gangway. On the beach near the bdridge is a half-rater. A launch was swept 1 One _mile—W. E.

J. | R. Savory's sloop Juanita of the San Francisco Yacht Club was driven toward shore and rests on the wreck of an old scow near the track. Mac- farlane’s fast twenty-footer Ruby is high ashore broadside, and a small sloop lies half submerged in the mid- dle of the lagoon. ‘The force of the storm was felt even in so sheltered a spot as Corte Madera Creek, which is a winter an- chorage for several arks and yachts. The ark Olga broke from her moor- ings and struck the schooner White ‘Wings, punching two holes in the schooner and sinking herself. The | ‘White Wings was patched up suf- ficiently to be towed to Tiburon for repairs. At Sausalito the sloops Surprise and Curlew, with the launches Viadimir.

The San Francisco Model Yacht Club will open the racing season for 1904 to-morrow on Spreckels Lake in Golden Gate Park. The owners of the small boats have beeif anxiously awaiting this oé¢casion. For several weeks most of the owners have been out accustoming themselves to tlLy courses and surroundings. The racing season last year was satis~ factory, but this year the competition will be better. The models will not meet with interference from rowbeoatls as théy did last year on Stow Lak= and the banks are much bettr on the new lake. A lack of wind afso made racing rather difficult at times. The vacht owners will not have this to contend with this séason, as there is always a good breeze over the new lake. Many new models have already been launched and more will be in tha near future. Many of the students of the Humboldt Evening School have become interested in model yachting and already three crack boats have been built by them. They are the Humbeldt I, II and IIL .The first named is the only one of the three that has been launched. It is one of the largest boats in the fleet, meas- uring seventy-nine inches. The two models ‘launched by M. Phorsen and C. J. McCleary last week made a satisfactory showing. They are built on graceful lines and show considerable speed. Forest & Car- ter's new scow sloop did not come up to expectations when launched last Sunday. Her poor showing was at- tributed to her rig. which was too small. This defect can easily be rem- edied and the new boat, with proper
