Former King of Feather-Weights Goes Ten Slow Rounds With Native Son. | Jack Cordell was declared a winner tover Eddie Santry, the once great | feather-weight, in the second prelim- {irary mill. The decision was a sure | hair-liner and stirred up the ire of the fans, who were looking for a draw, which undoubtedly would have been a better decision. Both men were rather slow and good, clean blows were lack- ing, though a hot mix-up was pulled | off in the eighth round. g | The fast pace was started about a minute before the gong tapped. Both . men forgot all about blocks and ducks and began to rip in wallop after wallop to the head and body. Cordell had a ' shade the better of the mix-up. | Bantry showed a little of his ancient | cleverness, but had no punch. He did ' not start in till the fourth round, when he began to worry Cordell. Jack began to use his left about the seventh and had Santry wobbly near the finish. | “Cyclone” Kelly picked up an easy one when Harry Kenny was sent against him in the first warm-up of the night. The latter did a sort of triple filp In the second round when Kelly of- | fered to make a swing. the carpet, and as he expressed no willingness by sign or otherwise to get up the referee proclaimed “Cyclone” a winner. The gallery gods howled a few | volleys of disapproval, but soon forgot | all about the big dubs in the excitement that followed. ——————— ATTORNEYS IN POWDER CASE CANNOT AGREE Report to Judge Morrow That They Have Failled to Select a Person as Examiner. The attorneys in the sult of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours Powder Com- pany ve. the Peyton Chemical Com- pany appeared before United States Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday morning and reported that they had been unable to agree upon the selec- tion of a person to examine the books of the respondent. It had been agreed that the examination should be made for the purpose of ascertaining the financial condition of the respondent. Judge Morrow said that as he was about to proceed with the trial of a jury case he would invite the contest- ants to retire to his chambers for fur- ther deliberation or disagreement, as the case might bg, and that If neces- sary he would detail a deputy Unit- ed States marshal to go with them to keep the peace. The counsel will report to Judge Morrow this morning. ———> ———— DECREES ARE ENTERED AGAINST TWO VESSELS Judge de Haven Awards Damages in Favor of Libelants Against the Musselcrag and Loch Trool.

Ritter Meets Violent Death at the Pacific Mail Dock. Martin G. Ritter, customs inspector, a veteran of the Civil War, who had lost a leg in the fight for his country, was killed yesterday afternoon at the Pacific Mail dock. Ritter was caught between two freight cars just as a yard engine backed up to the train to haul it out of the shed. The jar caused the inspector to fall under the wheels of the moving train and death would have been instantaneous had not the wooden leg of Ritter caught under the wheels in such a manner as to throw the man’s body away from the trucks. The wheels passed over the artificial limb, crushing it to splinters. Ritter was dragged along the dock for some distance, his head striking the plank- ing at every revolution of the car wheel, In which his clothing had caught. The train was stopped before it had gone very far and Ritter, stunned and bleeding, was extricated from his dan- gerous position. He was removed to the Harbor Receiving Hospital, where it was found that his skull was frac- tured and that he had sustained se- vere internal Injuries. Everything possible was done to save his life, but he died in a short time without having regalned consciousness. Ritter, who was 60 years of age, resided with his wife and daughter at the Hotel Franklin. He has been in the employ of the Government for over twenty-five years in this® eity, working at the Mint for twenty-one years, and four years as an Inspector of customs. The Morgue officials were notified and, after an Iinvestigation, permitted the body to be removed to an undertaker’s parlor. OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—Samuel D.

Regarding his | reason for leaving the army, he of- fered no explanation, declining posi= tively to discuss the affair. Lieutenant Creed F.

It had been sent direct by Major Alexander to headquarters at Washington. At the Presidio sev- eral officers said that they had heard that Major Alexander intended re- signing, but they had not taken the rumors seriously. Major Alexander was educated im this city.
