CHICAGO, May 9.—Feavy overnight rain turned the fast speedway as it was left at Worth on Saturday Into a soft and slow one to-day. The changed track conditions played havoc with the card and it was peppered with scratches. A sufficient fumber of mudlarks, however, happened to be entered in each event to enable the management to present a fairly good programme. The feature of the afternoon was & seven-furlong handicap, which resulted disastrously to the talent. Toscan was so hard that his odds were forced from 6 to 5 to 9 to 10. He se- cured no part of the money, however, the race being won by Baywood at 10 to 1, which was given a clever ride by Jockey Nichels.

KEENE’S HORSES WIN CROTONA Hurst Park Takes a Purse, While Dolly Spanker Gets in for the Second Money KINGSTON COLTS LEAD Pace Considered Fast, but Track Was Dead, Owing to Heavy Rains in Morning Epectal Dispatch to The Call. MORRIS PARK, May 9.—The rac- ers bred by Messrs. Keene, at their Castleton stables in .Kentucky ran first, second and third in the Crotona handicap at Morris Park to-day, while another of thelr breeding won the last race. Both of the Keenes saw a dou- ble trfumph of their race horses. Again, as in the Toboggan handicap, was Hurst Park the hero to-day. This time, however, while he won, a merry pace was set by his relative, Dolly Spanker. To-day he made all the running, and it was only in the last furlong that he showed indications of “coming back.” Then it was that Odom, who had ridden Hurst Park with patience, called on him and his response was generous, he winning by two lengths. Dolly Spanker lasted long enough to save second place from Kohinoor. Thus three Kingston colts were first, second and third. The pace was fast, as the track was still “dead” from a heavy rain this morning. Sav- able and High Chancellor were added to the starters anpd ran fairly well, the latter, however, getting off badly.

Bag Punching and Other Appliances of Gymnasium SAYS HE IS CONFIDENT —— In a Few Days He Will Spar With Jack Burke, Who Is Matched With Rufe Turner Martin Canole is being kept busy for his fight on the 20th with “Battling” ! Nelson, and though the date is just ten days off he devotes his whole time to light gymnasium work and shadow boxing. Jack Burke, who is preparing for his match with Rufe Turner two days later, will act as 'sparring partner for Canole as soon as the latter decides to begin heavy boxing. Canole still feels confident of his abil- ity to outbox the vanquisher of Spider Welch, but admits that he expects no easy time of it. Canole is even now not far above the stipulated ‘weight and gives this as his reason for delaying the road work and boxing. Both men, however, are stead- ily digging into the punching bags. Jack Burke is matched to meet Rufe | Turner before the Stockton Athletic | Club on the 18th of this month. i Champion Rodenbach arrived in the city last night. He announces that| his match with Sam Berger of the! Olympic Club will be at Mechanics’ | Pavilion on May gL McCLURE AWAIT TAP OF AND THURSTON 1 THE GONG !

OAKLAND, May 9.—Mike McClure and “Dutch™ Thurston, who meet in a fifteen-round contest before the Se- quoia Athletic Club to-morrow even- | ing, have finished their training and | are under the required weight. Both | of the men are game, aggressive fight- | ers and they should put up a good fight. Thurston is a favorite in the bet- ting on account of his greater ring ex- perience and the fact that he aiready has a decision over McClure, but the latter is confident of turning the ta- bles on his opponent to-morrow even- ing. —————— TRY-OUT ON STROKE. Scotland Carries Off Honors for Golf | Championship Trials. LONDON, May 9.—There were more than eighty contestants in the stroke competition to-day, prepara- tory to the opening of the ladies” golf champfonship meeting at Troon, Scot- land, to-morrow. The contest was in- teresting because for the last five years the winner of the stroke compe- tition has eventually won the cham- pionship. Miss Glover, the Scottish champion, went the rounds in magnif- | icent form in 81, easily the best score. Miss Dorothy Campbell took 86, Miss May Hazlett, the former champion, 87, and Miss Rhona Adair, the interna- tional champion, 88. Miss Higgins of the Midlothian Club, Chicago, was the only American competitor. She play- ed so poorly that she did not turn in her score. —_— e LITTLE ENTHUSIASM IN SAN JOSE POLITICS Hayes and Mackenzie Forces Are Op- posing, but Campaign Is Not Lively. SAN JOSE, May 9.—A week from to-day occurs the city election. The campaign has been one of the quiet- est in the history of the city and but very little enthusiasm has been aroused. It will be a contest between the Hayes and Mackenzie forces. The Hayes forces are back of the city ad- ministration, which has been in full power in the city for the last two years. The administration is running on what is known as the Citizens’ ticket. Those on the ticket are: Mayor, George D. Worswick; City Clerk, Jo- seph A. Beloli Jr.; Treasurer, H. D. Mathews; Councilman, Second Ward, J. F. Carey; Councilman, Third Ward, Wesley L. Pieper. All of these, with the exception of Pieper, are now hold- ing office. The opposition is running what is known as the People’s ticket. A. E. Shumate, at present City Superintend- ent of Schools, is the nominee for Mayor; City Clerk, Roy Walter; Treasurer, Joseph A. Lotz; Council- man, Second Ward, H. W. Otter; Councilman, Third Ward, D. J. Mc- Ginley. Headquarters are maintained by the ! ‘Worswick people in the theater build- ing and they have been doing some ac- tive work for the last two weeks. Last Monday evening they held their main meeting of the campaign and each evening they hold a ward meeting. Saturday last the Shumate forces opened headquarters in the Knox block. As yet they have held no meet- ing, but it is believed they will in-| augurate their campaign during the coming week. There is but one office fot which there are three candidates and that! is the office of Treasurer. Alex P.; the two tickets for the place. Never before in the history of the city has an election been so auiet and unless it is livened up this week it is believed a very light vote will be cast. ——— Californians in Washington.

LOS ANGELES, May 9.—John Jef- fries, brother of the champion pugil- ist, has been holding the linemen of the Kern River Light and Power { Company at bay with a shotgun for six weeks. The linemen attempted to string a line of high voltage wires through a lot of pine trees planted by the elder Jeffries at the old home- stead. Poles forty feet high, but twenty feet shorter than the trees, were set up. When the linemen commenced to chop up the first pine the champion’s mother remonstrated and was given cold comfort.

RIO JANEIRO, May 9.—A dispatch from Manaos announces that an im- portant battle has been ‘fought between the Brazilian forces and the Peruvians near the River Chandles. The Peru- vians were completely routed. The Brazilian troops under General Madeiros started from Manaos, going directly to the front. In spite of the importance of this news it is the gen- eral opinion here that there will not be a war between Peru and Brazil. The Peruvian Minister to Brazil has hand- ed to Baron Rio Branco a note on the situation, which is understood to be couched in very friendly terms. The note proposes an extension of the property rights of both countries in the disputed Acre territory, without taking into account the actual occu- pation of the distric —_——————————— BOILERMAKERS STRIKE: BLACKSMITHS LOCKED OUT Santa Fe Employes in Sympathy With Machinists Lay Down Their Tools. SAN BERNARDINO, May 9.—At 9:15 o'clock this morning all the boil- ermakers and helpers employed in the Santa Fe shops here laid down their tools and walked out, the strike hav- ing been called in sympathy with the striking machinists, who went out two weeks ago. In all about 150 men went out this morning. There has been no trouble or disorder, either at the shops or elsewhere, the men simply laying down their tools and leaving the shops. As yet no non-union men have been brought in to take the places of the strikers, although it is reported that new men will be put to work to- morrow. The blacksmiths and their helpers were locked out. —_———— Will Raise Funds by Concert. SANTA CRUZ, May 9.—The con- cert cantata, “Rose Maiden,” by Fred- eric H.

Wentz, the young millionaire. Friends of the | family are pesitive that there can be | no mistake as to his identity. It will be noon to-morrow before the father can reach the scene. An inquest | will be held immediately upon his ar- rival, when it is expected additional fmportant facts and circumstances will !be revealed. ! The spot where young Wentz's body was found is isolated, although not far from a public road and very near Eh» | place where his horse was found. The body is remarkably well preserved to have lain in its present position for so many months, but the features are not recognizable. The identification was made by clothing and by articles young | Wentz was known to have had in his possession. His spurs, riding !l‘O\.l!"l'i and leggings were readily identified. while within a few feet of his body were a blue-bordered handkerchief bearing the initials “E. L. W." a re volver, three chambers of which had been discharged, eyeglasses worn by the young man and his cuffs, from which a pair of valuable buttons had been removed. The body lay as if Wentz had fallen after a strugsgle. The head rested on a piece of log, l\\‘hlle one leg was doubled back under | the body. The position indicates mur- der. There are holes in the coat that appear to have been made by bullets. Every indication points to a battle be- tween Wantz and his murderer, in which the victim had fired three shots from his revolver before he was killed. After receiving the fatal shots he | evidently staggered back from where he had taken his stand and fell, thus accounting for the distance between where his body lay and where his re- volver and eyeglasses were found. What is regarded as the most probabie | theory is that young Wentz was a vie- tim of moonshiners. It is known that a band of these men cherished ennity toward him. .. ———— | PETALUMA ED TAINS THE HERMANN SONS | Delegates From the Various Lodges in the State Attend the Session of the Grand Lodge.

Cameron, who claims to be a broker, was taken into custody by Patrolman John Sullivan of the Sev- enteenth-street station last evening on account of his strange conduct in a vacant house at 1666 Alabama street.
