He was nicely handled by Davis and, a 9 to 10 favorite, led Scherzo by the judges more than two lengths. The old cam- | paigner Barrack, sporting the colors of the young Chicago turfman, Tony Bar- rett, finished a becoming third. Flaunt ran disappointingly. G. W. TRAHERN FINISHES FIRST. If Travers made any mistakes with G. W. Trahern in a race decided last Saturday, which was won by Flying Torpedo, he corrected his faults in the ; last event yesterday by placing the Summers’ horse over the plate first. He not only beat Flying Torpedo the length of a Nevada stock train, but also subdued Byronerdale, probably the best of the middle-class selling platers. Of course, it may be that G. W. Trahern is a horse that requires weight to keep him balanced on an even keel, for in yesterday's essay he picked up five pounds more than in his preceding parody. There are no apologies to make for Byronerdale, He got away well and Davis had him on the rail throughout. The last eighth of a mile Travers, on G. W. Trahern, passed him like throwing a plug hat —_— WEAK MEN CURED We have a safe. SIMPLE = HOME Ao presn v VDE\'MPEB man to try it for 10 days on ap- proval -mmn charge.

Bonner's riding, however, is restricted to the stable of C. C. McCafferty by a ruling of the stewards. Claude was jumped on during some stage of the race in which he was re- turned winner, and one leg was con- siderably bruised. It is not thought, however, that the injury will prevent him from being a starter in the-Christ- mas handicap. Silicate, a starter in the maiden race won by Borghesi, is a full sister to Fossil.

LOUIS, Dec. 22.—After fighting Monte Attell of San Francisco to a standstill during the first nine rounds of what was to have been a twenty- round go, Johnny Regan of New York was knocked out in the seventeenth round to-night before the West End Regan, as In his previous two en- counters with Attell, cast his stalling tactics away and waded into the Cali- fornian from the first tap of the gong. His lead included a clean knock down in the sixth round. The eleventh round was even, the next only slightly in Regan’s favor. Attell then steadily improved until the end of the seven- teenth round, when he swung vicious- ly on Regan's jaw, dazing him. A lightning left and right to the same spot sent Johnny to the floor for the count. This was Attell’s third straight victory over Regan. KALAMAZOO, Mich.,, Dec. 22.— Clarence Forbes of Chicago and Harry Cobb of Detroit fought ten rounds to a draw to-night. —_— e CONSTRUCTION OF STEEL AND CONCRETE NOT FAVORED Formal Report of Fire Committee De- ferred Owing to Absence of One Member, The Supervisors’ Fire Committee yesterday considered the petition of the Concrete Steel Construction Com- pany to amend the building ordinance ' permitting the building of con- crete steel structures. Chief Shaugh- nessy stated that the City Ar- chitect informed him that the erection of such structures would necessitate the employment of inspec- tors to superintend the mixing of con- I crete and that Chief Sullivan was op- posed to the amendment. A com- munication from the board of under- writers to the Merchants Association said that the board is not sufficiently well acquainted with the subject to take anystrong position either for or against the proposed amendment, be- lieving that the matter should be sub- mitted to architects and exverts in building lines. Supervisors Alpers and Lunstedt expressed themselves as opposed to the proposition, but deferred taking formal action, owing to the absence of Hocks, the third member of the committee. The committee will present a report to the board next Tuesday. HORSES WHICH FIGORE T0 WIN BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. First race — Handy Bill, Velna, Mogregor. Second race — Bell Reed, Troy, Bronze Wing.

According to present arrangements the big contest will be played in New York after the Columbia-Cornell game on Thanksgiving day. The game has long been wished for by Columbia stu- dents, but owing to the long schedule of the Westerners no game between the East and the West has hitherto been possible. The Columbia coach, Morley, tried last year to arrange a game, to be played in California. The Western manager, however, sent word that his programme was full and nexotlluonl fell through. One of the athletic directors at Co- lumbia stated ‘to-day that the game will be brought about through the ef- forts of former Captain Smith of Co- lumbia. The latter has just been ap- pointed head coach of the University of California. Smith has taken up his residence in the West and henceforth will devote his attention to the football interests of ‘Westerners. ‘While at Morningside Heights Smith figured as one of the most prominent players in the East. During his last year at college he played at fullback and was captain of the eleven. After graduation he went West and assumed the position of coach for the University of Oregon. @" New Orleans.

The other five races went to well played horses at 1ib- eral odds, the longest chances being Cincinnatus at 8 and Effervescence at 10 to 1.

Bragg was favorite in the bet- ting from start to finish. Cincinnatus furnished a surprise in the fifth race and won from The Major and Blissful in the order named.

Alice E. Sanborn, who married Henry F. Sanborn, a hotel manager, at Nagasaki, Japan, in 1901, was yester- day granted a divorce from him by Judge Hunt on the ground of neglect. Judge Hebbard awarded an interlocu- tory decree to Gertrude E. Payne, who charged Frank E. Payne with cruelty. He threatened to place her in an in- sane asylum and their baby In an orphan’s home and once aimed a pistol at her. Judge Sloss ordered Arthur L. Piper of the Piper-Aden-Goodall Company to pay his wife $150 on account of back alimony and recommended that they reach an agreement as to future payments. Mrs. Piper wants $6500 in a lump. Piper declares that he has lost his property and position and is unable to provide for her. Divorces were granted by Judge Seawell to Carlotta Moseley from N. H. Moseley for desertion; by Judge Hebbard to John L. Ramsner from Lizzie Ramsner, desertion; by Judge Kerrigan to Forrest L. Dutcher from Nellie M. Dutcher, desertion; by Judge Graham to Edith P. Bolam from Thomas P. Bolam, cruelty; by Judge Sless to Lucia Gatty from Domingo Gatty, desertion. Christ Runge, the Tonopah mining man, who sued his 18-year-old bride for divorce four months after their marriage; yesterday answered her cross-complaint denying her counter- charges of cruelty. He declares that he is not worth $100,000, but only $3500 and that his only mining interest is a one-third in the Hypatia ¢laim at Tonopah, which is unpro- | ductive. Judge Hunt annulled the marriage of Dinah Reid and Willlam J. Reid, which took place in May, 1901, two months after her divorce from Robert Scott. Actions for divorce were begun yes- terday by Maud Horne against Willis S. Horne, desertion; Catharine Belcher against Joseph C. Bechler, cruelty; Sophie McFall against Joseph McFall, neglect; Mary L. King against Joseph King, neglect and desertion; Adeline E. Ghio inst John B. Ghio, neglect; Rose J.

A default judgment against the Stablemen’s Union was entereq yes- terday in Judge Hebbard’s court at the instance of Goldberg, Bowen & Co.. who sued for a perpetual injunc- tion to restrain the union from boy- cotting the firm and interfering with its non-union employes. The perpet- ual injunction was granted. On No- vember 21 Judge Hebbard denied the motion of the stablemen to modify the temporary restraining order.

Leon Siegmond, a young man re- siding at 936 Buchanan street, while speeding along Golden Gate avenue shied his wheel to one sigde to avoid a pool of oil. In so doing he took a header on the hard paved sidewalk. The fall and the consequence rendered his semi-conscious until he was re- vived in the Emergency Hosiptal. A cut in his lower lip, a concussion of the brain and a possible fracture of the skull were the total amount of his injuries. ———— WATCHMAN QUINLAN DROPPED.
