The whole affair went through without a hitch and with only one delay. Owing to the strong | tide that was running, however, the task of towing the yachts out against that it was nearly 2 o'clock before the last yacht left the lagoon. | Port Captain John H. Keefe, as- | sisted by John Norby, managed the | details of the bridge raising. Almost | as soon as the draw had been taken lup, ¥. E. Baker's sloop Emilie, with her owner, Frank A. Bartlett, and | some friends on board, was warped i through. The little sloop Rambler | was in tow of the Emilie. Next came | the sloop Wave, towed by the launch | Leonie; the sioop Mischief, towed by T. Jennings’ launch; the sloops Tru- | ant and Discovery towed by T. Jen- “mnxs' launch; the big yawl Frolic, with C. Swain at the wheel, towed by Forrest’s launch Gazelle; the sloops Meteor and Hiawatha, towed by T. Jennings’ launch; the sloop Emma, towed by the launch Leonie; the sloop Clara, towed by a launch. | Fisher's yawl Nereid then came up | to the draw in tow of a small launch, which could hardly make headway against the tide and wind. Before she had got through T. Jennings' launch, towing a yacht, overtook the Nereid and it became necessary for both launches to ¢ast off their -tows and for the yachts to drop their an- chors. Percy Burr's launch Cub towed the sloop May, with ex-Com- modore H. D. Hawks at the wheel. | Then came the sioops Neva, Neptune, | Merope and Mignon, each in tow of a | launch. These were followed by the | sloop Amigo and the yawl Nereid, | each in tow of a launch. Westerfeld | and Morrow’s sloop Aeolus came out |in tow of T. Jennings' launch. | ' The rest of the fieet, each yacht in | tow of a launch, passed out in the fol- | lowing order: The sloops Fleetwing, | E Beaver, Wawona, Juanita and | Genesta. J. R.

The sloops Presto and Harpoon and the yawl Seven Bells are at Stone's vard at Harbor View. The sloop Phoenicia is at Boole's yard, in Oakland Creek, un- dergoing repairs. She was greatly maged in the recent heavy storm. At 1 o'clock the new cup challenger started from the Fulton Iron Works and sailed over to Belve- dere cove, where she took up moor®] ings near the clubhouse. | The mainsail .of the sloop Presto | was bent onto the Corinthian's main |boom and gaff, which also car- |ried the Presto's storm jib. | She started out with a reef, the wind blowing freshly, but stood up so well under her canvas that the reef was shaken out. On board the Cor- inthian were ex-Commodore J. W. Pew, Frank Stone, Dave Dean, Doug- las Erskine and George Storey. Those who. were aboard of her said the chal- lenger handles well and gives high promise of great speed. The weather looked threatening yesterday and it was feared the Corinthian’s own sails might get a wetting. Next Sunday the challenger will go out for a spin un- der her own canvas. HANDBALL CHAMPION IS EGAN + N § i | i | | { 3 — VICTOR IN HANDBALL MATCH AT THE OLYMPIC CLUB FOR THE WORLD'S CHAMPIONSHIP, LR Defeats Fitzgerald and Clinches Claim to Title. By Louis Levy. Michael Egan of Jersey City can now be hailed as the champlon handball player of the world, having clinched his claim to the title by decisively de- feating James Fitzgerald of this city, who disputed his right to the laurels. Egan and his rival completed their series of games yesterday at the Olym- pic Club. The attendance was not so large as on the preceding Sunday, as the ticket holders felt it was a fore- gone conclusicn ‘that Egan would cap- ture the remaining games. Those who crowded the balconies en- joyed some fast and brilliant playing. They saw the heavily muscled Egan smite the ball apparently with force enough to drive it through the front wall. They saw him display wonderful strength and untiring resources in fast rallies apd they watched the Eastern man prove his supericrity over Fitz- gerald in all but one department of the game, and that was headwork. Fitz- gerald proved the headier player of the pair. Had he possessed the necessary gtamina there is no doubt that® he would have given Egan a better con- test. Fitzgerald played scientifically, but his science amounted to little against the fast ball Egan sent at him through- out the games. The local player killed many balls and missed a great many more. He tried hard tc keep the ball just out of Egan’s reach, but the cham- pion was always under it and when he drove it to the front wall it traveled with force to send it to the back wall. Fitzgerald gave a clever exhibition of “killing” from the back wall. He sent the ball low each time and Egan with all his skill could not lay his big “mitts” cn the fast moving spheroid. Egan played a gentiemaniy game, but in his anxiety to get close to the ball AIRSHIP RACES 1T THE FAl Management Governing the Aerial Contests in June ST. LOUIS, April 3.—The World's Fair management has announced the following changes in the rules govern- ing the airship contest: The minimum speed required in the race for the grand prize of $100,000 is 15% miles an hour, instead of 20 miles. Formal entries will be received until June 1 instead of May 1. The prize for the highest altitude at- tained is withdrawn because of the great danger in such contests. There will be only eight races for. spherical balloons instead of ten, and they will begin the first Monday in June. There will be no races in May. Prizes of cups, medals and other trophies are offered for amateur bal- Joon races, to be held the second and fourth Mondays in September. The exposition company will furnish’ free hydrogen gas for all contestants. Foreign contestants may ship their apparatus direct to St. Louis, thus es- caping the customs ipspect{on at the coast. Arrangements have been made with the Government to permit the balloons to leave the fair grounds’in races, but they must be returned un- less wrecked, as the grounds are a Government bonded warehouse. TUp to date thirty-four entries have: been filed. Only six foreign contestants have thus far entered, including M. Santos Dumont and M. Lebaudy. Mohler, Hits—Off Keefe 4, off Hall 110, off 2.

Huston, { Benefit Base Ball Game. = OAKLAND, April 3.—A benefit game of baseball for George W. Poult- ney, who was recently injured at Palo Alto, will be played at Berkeley on Monday, April 4. The game will be between the U. C. nine and St. Mary's crack teams he would balk Fitzgerald. He always ran in front of Fitzgerald as if he an- ticipated where the ball would land and if Fitzgerald raised it out he would catch it on the fly with either hand and send it back to his opponent. Egan's head collided with the ball in the first game and he was dazed for a minute. The fast.shooting object bare- ly missed his right optic and had it landed kgan would have probably re- tired from the pastime at which he is such an expert. Fitzgerald found fault with ex- Alderman Dunne's coaching and called him to task. The local man captured the first game, after the hardest kind of a struggle, and as they doffed their shirts for greater comfort, Mr. Dunne, who was scoring, called to Egan to change the ball. | Fitzgerald lost his temper and sai t is not fair to coach him.” To which Mr. Dunne replied: “I want to say one werd and that is, when you went in you said you had a right to select the ball and when he went in he could toss with any ball he selected. I am interested in Mr. Egan. I am the only gentleman here with him.” “If I was in condition I could beat him,” called back Fitzgerald. “I'll bet a thousand dollars you can’t beat him,” replied Dunne. Referee Hampton called game and the two experts were at it again harder than ever. Preliminary to the big game Joseph Condon of the Occidental Handball Club and Tom Leech of the St. Ig- natius Athletic Club outplayed Louis Levy and Henry Cory. Each side took a game and in the final Leech and Condon played championship ball and ran away from their opponents. When Egan and Fitzgerald entered the court they were given another hearty greeting. After warming up, game was called. Egan started out to annex two games, but Fitzgerald! fought every inch of the way. led at 19 to 15, and the excitement was intense, By a series of hard serves, clever “kilis” and heady playing, Fitz- gerald won the opening game. This did not bother Egan. He simply began sending the ball out as only he can send it. Fitzgerald valiantly to return the El‘l. h'::‘ he missed with frequency. Egan many opportu- nities to “kill,”” but he never availed himself, seemingly satisfied to drive it baek with incredible speed. Egan tock the second game by a score of 21-11. . i Fitzgerald was up in the air |nn$ third game. He was tired and wi and his returns were weak. Egan had enough steam for two men and was without mercy. He was there to give Fitzgerald a drubbing and he did Fitzgerald was lucky enough to four points, whereas the ‘champion kept scoring until 21 points were se- | cured and the referee declared him the victor.

G. Strippel is the monarch of these merry knights of the rifie. The organization held its an- nual eagle shoot at Shell Mound Park yesterday and thirty-six members par- ticipated in this historic game. Untii dusk they blazed away at the redwood eagle perched high upon a pole and piece by piece the effigy of the famous bird of prey dropped away until Strip- pel struck the vital staple. In addition to the honor, the Kingship carries \a cash prize of $50 and a gold medal, val- fied at $25. On next Sunday the Red Men’'s Schuetzen Company will give its annual schuetzen fest and prize shoot at Shell Mound. R. S. Wixson, a member of the Shell Mound Rifle and Pistol Club, from his recent performances gives promise ol becoming one of the crack shots of the coast. He led the second champion class yesterday with a score of 395, making 207 in the first ten shots and 188 in the next. In the competitive shoot of three shots he scored two tickets, 65 out of a possible 75 and 67 out of a possible 75.

Y e e el men two things are noticeable. First, Egan possesses abnormal strength and can hit the ball with either hand and from any position, but he lacks the ability to use his brain. To the on- looker it appeared as if the champion believed in trip-hammer blgws to offset the science and pretty playing of Fitz- gerald. On_the other hand, Fitzgerald had more direction to his returns and almost every point he made in close rallies was through his ability to place the ball, Fitzgerald can defeat many men in this country, but he will never defeat ‘Egan, as he lacks strength and staying powers. Both men are in a class by themselves, They are extremely fast AT INGLESIDE and use both hands with the skill of} experts. Fitzgerald wants a return match, l.ndkl.horednesnbel The pair will play a series exhibition games, for the edification of the mem- bers of the Ol ic Club, who have not seen them in : The scores yesterday were as follows: ANY STABLES WIN THOUSANDS W.

A strong wind sweeping over the courts made it rather difficult at times to lob and play high balls, but the matches as a rule were close. On the California Club courts, the handicap doubles tournament which was started on Washington's birthday was completed. The final match was | fully as close as was expected. The winners were Tracy Crawford and ‘Will Allen, who defeated Sidney Salis- bury and Frank Stringham on even terms. All four players were erratic and hardly up to form. Salisbury and Stringham won the first set rather eas- ily by a seore of 6—3. In the second set | Allen and Crawford improved consid- erably and their net work was much better. They won this set, 6—4. The third set was nip and tuck, with first one in the lead and then the other. Each side won on service, and not more than one game separated the teams until the end. The score, in favor of Allen and Crawford, was 9—7. The fourth and. last set was one of the most stubbernly contested seen in some time. Allen and Crawford kept ahead up to 5—3 and looked to have the match won. Again at 5—4 and 40-15 they looked sure winners. Salisbury and | Stringham made a determined stand and evened up matters at 5—5. From then on first one side was ahead and then the other until the twenty-fourth game, when three or four clever strokes ~ | at the net gave the game and match to Allen and Crawford. The score was 3—6, 6—4, 9—7, 13—11. Play was resumed in the class sin- gles tournament at the park courts yesterday. Only one match was played in the first class. In it Will_Allen de- feated Charles Dunlap, 6—4, 7—5. Dun- lap was not at his best and Allen had little difficulty beating him. he fourth class honors were won by Guerin, who beat Hall in the The score was eas) finals in straight sets. 6—4, 6—4, 6—3. In the second class several matches commenced a week ago were com- pleted. Marius Hotchkiss had a lead of a set over N. Ambrose, but the latter won out the last two by a narrow margin. The score was 5—7, 6—4, 7—5. Brabant won in his match with G. W. Finch, but was beaten easily by Neil Baker. The score was 6—3, 6—1. George Janes beat Miller Hotchkiss in two close sets. §core 8—6, 6—4. Janes was in turn beaten by Clarence Foley. Foley was in great form. He won the first set easily, but had a hard time winning the next two. The score was 6—1, 79, 5. In the fourth class J. F. Brady beat J. M. Baker, 6—3, 6—1, and was in turn beaten by Guy Lytton, 6—3, 7—5. Many of the players who were ab- sent were not defaulted yesterday, but those not on hand next Sunday will lose by default, as @he tournament committee has decided to finish the event then. On the California Club courts some good practice matches were played. The best was that between Harry Haight and Crant Smith. Haight won the first set, but the next three. went to his opponent easily. The following matches were played: Grant Smith beat Harry Haight. 68, 6-0, 6-2, 6-3; H. Gabriel tied Haight, 6-4; 3-6; A. W. Worthington beat W. F. Bull, 6-4. 6-3, 7-5: Dr. Lovegrove and C. . Bayre beat Worthing- ton and Bull, 7-5, 6-4, 6-4; Howell beat W. Johnson, 6-4, 6-1, 6-3, 6-2;" W. S. MacGavin beat N. Blaisdell, 7-5, 6-1; Dr. Lovegrove beat Sayre, 5-7, 6-4, 6-3. — ee—————— NEW RIFLEMAN A WONDER. W. F. Hartter Defeats Strecker, Blasse and Other Experts.
