The battle terminated in he seventh period by a knockout ad. sninietered by the local fighter in & fierce and gory rally. Up to the sixth round the contest was even. Then began Smith's Waterloo. He opened the sixth round by scoring eeveral lefts to Otts’ head and then stopped with his jaw a terrific walilop from Billy’s right that caused the au- : burn-haired Denverite to rock on his pins and shake his head. Otts, scent- ing v y, went viciously after his| man, but Rube fought back like a tiger, | and although he went down for the count of eight he revived and had Otts in & dizzy state when the gong sounded corners. wed Rube down with a rights and lefts to took another eight nd was sent to the floor for keeps. th exhibited cleverness with both hayr during the first five rounds and was generally on the aggressive.

As train No. bound from Pa- cific Grove to San Francisco, was pass- ing Bernal station at 11:556 &. m. yes- terday Engineer James Stuart saw a shabbily dressed man throw himself in front of the locomotive. Stuart at once applied the air brakes and stop- ped the train in the shortest possible time, but the man had already been crushed to death under the wheels. The mangled remains were taken to the depot at Third and Townsend streets, where they were delivered to the Coroner's deputies. Nothing was found in the pockets of the dead man by which his identity could be ascer- tained. He appeared to be about 40 years of age and looked like a tramp or a laborer in very indigent circum- stances. —_—————— The people of the United States eat £150,000,000 worth of candy in a year, and there are nearly five thousand fac- tories making 1t, with a capital of $38,- o myarion with his opponent in-|pounds, on coming out for the seventh | that by the drying-up route. beat of the canvas and on rising | CANOLE EASES - UP 1ARD WORK Is Within One Pound of Re- quired Weight and Will Spend His Time Leisurely NELSON 1S CONFIDENT Hayes Valley Club Will Do Its Best to Give Good Amateur Show To-Night -— Jim Connolley, manager for Martin Canole, and Teddy Murphy, who looks after the pugilistic business affairs of | Battling Nelson, met last night at | Alex Greggains’ cafe on Ellis street {and discussed the referee question for | their contest next Friday night at | Woodward's Pavilion. The men talked | the matter over for more than an hour, ,bu: came to no conclusion as to who | would referee the bout. The names of | Phil Wand, Eddie Graney, Arthur Eck- art, Jack Welch and Billy Roach were | mentioned and it was thought ome of these men will be selected to officlate. Canole has succeeded in reducing himself to within one pound of the weight limit and from now on he will do but light work. The little vacation he took from his training quarters the | other day shot up’ his weight to 134 but he will soon get rid of Canole’s manager has given it out that he will bet $1000 on his man at even money. Connolley lost considerable money on Canole when the latter fought Britt at Colma. “I will positively not give any odds on this fight, for I think it is an even money bet,” remarked Con- nolley. “Canole is in great condition and I will make this one bet of $1000, but if I have to give odds I will stay oft.” Teddy Murphy is just as confident that Nelson will win and he has said he would make a good bet on Nelson, | but he is waiting to get as good as 10 | to 8 for his money. | Canole never looked better and his trainers are well pleased with his fine condition and they say by Friday night, | when he meets Battling Nelson, he will be fit to fight for a championship. The Massachusetts lad has worked hard and faithfully the last two weeks and he is glad the training routine is near the end. Canole has little to say re- garding his coming contest with Nel- son, but intimates that he is familiar with the fact that the Chicago man is a tough nut to crack, that he ex- pects a hard fight and that he is not underrating him in the least; but that he will be at his very best, and he also intimated that he was full of confi- dence and expected to win the deci- sion. Nelson is as sure of winning from Canole as he is that he is alive, and he is planning his future accordingly. He says Canole’s punches will not bother him in the least, and he feels that he is bound to catch him at some stage of the many will uncork on the clever Canole. The preliminaries, between Jim Hay- ward, the New York lightweight, and Henry Lewis, and the one between Frank Rafael and George Herbert, promise to be good ones. Each bout is slated to go ten rounds. Morris Levy has everything in readi- ness for his little performance to-night, and as each of the amateurs scheduled to appear has put a good piece of for- feit money up to guarantee his good faith there should be no disappoint- ments for the fans at the last moment. The first attraction of the evening's programme is e little bout between ‘Willie Sheper of the Hayes Valley Club and Charles Hippley of the same insti- tution. They will fight at 120 pounds. Harry Baker of the Bay City Club and Harry Williams of the Hayes Valley will furnish the second bout. Willie Ingham of the Hayes Valley and John Kirchen of the Lincoln Club will fight at 140 pounds. Jim Kane and Charlie Dunn will next try conclusions at 125 pounds, after which a special event, in which Jack Moran of the Hayes Valley Club and Lew Powell of the Hawthorne Club will mix at 130 pounds. Teddy Wolff and “Rough House” McDonald, looked upon as California’s best welter- weights, will furnish the first main event, after which the performance will be drawn to a close with a grand finale in the form of a battle royal between Joe Thomas and George Peterson. Jack Lane will act s master of cere- monies and Jim McDevitt will be of- ficial referee. e —— MINT THIEF HAUSER IS HELD FOR TRIAL In Order to Save His Wife From Prosecution He Makes Full Con- fession of Crime. Albert M. Hauser, the dishonest Mint employe, who confessed that he stole gold from the Mint, was held for trial by United States Commissioner Heacock yesterday. His bail was fixed at $1000. The credit of his detection is due to United States Secret Service Agents George W. Hazen and Thomas B. Foster, who discovered last Jan- uary that fine gold, containing an al- loy of coln silver, was being sold in this city. They watched the “‘fence” for several weeks and their vigilance was rewarded by seeing a woman en- an ingot valued at $200. They fol- lowed her to 1279 Union street and ! discovered that she was Hauser's wife and that Hauser was in the melting department of the Mint. Secret Ser- vice Agent Burns joined in the inves- tigation and arrested Hauser. THe prisoner made a full confession and asked that his wife should not be prosecuted. Hauser worked in Shreve’s for four- teen years. Want Equal Suffrage. The California Equal Suffrage Asso- ciation was incorporated yesterday by a number of women. They are Mary S.

The fight is to take place under the auspices of the athletic club offering the best inducements. The match was arranged by Willie Britt, brother and manager of the champion featherweight of ghe world, and Harry Pollok, who tends to the financial arrangements in “Young Cor- bett’'s” fighting carcer. The match was made after many stormy inter- views, during one of which Corbett claimed he had been robbed by the decision of Referee FEddie Graney at the lastifight in San Francisco. The conversation occurred in a well known saloon and Britt spilt out a handful of gold and greenbacks from his pocket and said to Corbett: “I can lick you in an ash barrel, and if T can’t all this money is yours.” Manager Willie Britt interfered and hostilities were avoided. Both Cor- bett and Pollok are pleased over the agreement made for the forthcoming fight and believe that Britt will go down to defeat. On the other hand, the champion says that he can “nmake a monkey” out of the Denver boy at their next meeting, and his brother js equally positive of the result. One of the articles of agreement provides that neither of the principals shall engage in a fistic encounter with any one before the date of the ar- ranged fight. ——e— No, Maude, dear, we Lave never heard that a yardstick gets cold feet.

MORRIS PARK, May 16.—Hurst Park won the Claremont handicap to-day under an impost of 130 pounds, defeat- | ing by a head Lux Casta, which, had | she run straight after getting off last, | might have been the winner. It was Hurst Park’s third consecu- tive victory, he having previously won the Toboggan and Crotona handicaps. To-day's success was most meritorious because, in addition to the weight he carried, the horse was handicapped by baving hit himself in his preliminary, and it was necessary to use a simpie remedy to minimize the effect of the accident. Much was expected from Gay Boy their admirers. As for Lux Casta, she displayed her usual bad temper at the barrier and was last away, but went up fast from her outside position, made | & wide turn into the stretch, came down the incline diagonally and then swerved being ridden with great patience by George Odom, who did not make a bid until the last furlong. He ran straight and true and Odom was not required to resort to the whip. A head was the verdict in his favor. Two lengths away was Gay Boy. The track was “dead” and was at least a second to the mile slower than under normal conditions. Summary: FIRST RACE—£ix and a hall furlongs; purse; three-year-olds and up. t, Jockey. St. % Fin.

A new time schedule for its train and ferry system will go into effect on the North Shore road to-day. Instead of one through train to Cazadero, as heretofore, there will be two here- after, the first, leaving at 7:45 o'clock in the morning and the other at 3:15 in the afternoon. The schedule also provides for extra trains to Point Reyes on Sunday at 9:15 a. m. and an- other at 7:15 p. m., and an extra train to the same point on all days except Saturdays and Sundays at 5:15 p. m. Six more trains are placed on the runs to San Rafael, Mill Valley and inter- mediate points. In fact the new schedule increases the total number of trains on the entire line to 124 a day except Sunday and twenty-four boats each way on week days and twenty on i Sundays.
