Not a fluke play nor a bit of luck came to the rescue of either team during the progress. of the memorable game, which goes to make the contest even more remarkable. There have been more sensational games played on many diamonds, but never has such a remarkable struggle taken place. The game was devoid of startling play outside of the work of the pitchers. It is safe to say, how- ever, that no two box artists ever par- ticipated in such an exhibition as Whalen and Schmidt starred in yes- terday. Both men displayed courage, cun- ning and nerve that were almost impos- sible to conceive, They were pitch- ing as hard and as desperately and were as effective when the game was called at the end of the sixteenth Inning as when they commenced their day’s Jabor. Neither man showed the slightest sign of weakness or fatigue during the remarkable struggle. Although the day was bleak and cold, the players on each side dis- played wonderful fastness. Only three €rrors were committed while the game was in progress. One of these was made by Francks, while Gochnauer and Spencer were each responsible for one. It is doubtful whether the fans will ever have a chance of witnessing an- other such diamond struggle, yet there were only about 200 people in attend- ance. As the innings rolled by the spectators sat glued to their places, each intent on watching every play and cheering their favorites when they performed any feat worthy of notice, But few startling plays were made. Devereaux, Francks and Gochnauer Iexecute(l all the flashy bits of field- ng. The work of Whalen was marvel- ous. He pitched the entire sixteen innings without allowing a single base on balls or hitting one,batsman. Only nine of the Oaklanders reached first base and four of these were caught, leaving but five to die on the sacks. Schmidt walked four men, hit one and allowed eight base hits. Twelve of the Seals perished on the sacks. They had the bases full in the tenth spasm when Walters poked a ground- ed to Francks and was thrown out at first. This was the nearest either side came to scoring a run. San Francisco also had men on sec- ond and third in the sixteenth inming. Captain Parke Wilson came to the bat with two out. He fouled off sev- eral balls and was trying his utmost to make a hit, but Schmidt finally let loose a big drop and Wilson fanned. Umpire Perine then called the game on account of darkness. Not a man stole a base during the progress of the memorable game. Both McMurray and Shea threw to bases in remarkable style. Each pitcher tore off two hits, while the best hitters on the rival teams were unable to connect safely at all. Wal- ters had seven chances with the club and could not come through once, The score: San Francisco— AB.R. H. P. A R.H.P. A.

NO MORE COES FOR A WHILE Not for several months will the ‘amateurs” get busy at Woodward’s | Pavilion; not till the present Grand Jury is dissolved. Coming Jimmy Britts and Nelsons must saw wood for a while or fight for real medals that cannot be exchanged at the door for filthy lucre. Foreman Andrews is not making a Le Blanche swing at a popular sport, but he is certain that he has scented | graft in the game. When he starts graft has to take the count. Legiti- mate clubs can pull off as many shows as they like, but they must comply with the law to the letter. Foreman Andrews is from Missouri strictly in regard to the alleged amateurs. But the tip is out that no more mix- ups with “amateurs” will be sched- uled until the dissolution of the Grand Jury. *“Rough House” McDonald will engage in the pleasant recreation of practing ping-pong until ~then, and Sam Berger will dally a while with the croquet mallet. Alex Greggains said last night: “They can’t stop a legitimate club. May be the San Francisco Club will pull off a show next month, may be not, I dunno. What t’ell, anyhow.” This last sentence expresses just about what the fight fans say and think. The game is not menaced in any way. But the Grand Jury insists that everything must be on the square to the smallest item. It was found the investigation of the Hayes Valley Club that several of the contestants had not been exam- ined by a physician, as required by law. A certificate was handed to the Chief of Police to the effect that this requirement had been carried out. But on investigation it was admitted that several of the boys had not been ex- amined- Morris Levy declared Sunday that he would put on real, bona-fide, 18-karat amateur shows. He had a legitimate club, and declined to be buffaloed, he asserted. But now the tip comes that Morris, too. will lay low. “What t'ell, anyhow,” as Mr. Greg- gains says. The Grand Jury has not made any investigation of the affairs of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Light Com- pany. Foreman Andrews declared last night that the sweeping statements made by Henry Sessions have not been acted upon by the Grand Jury, and probably will not, unless something substantial is advanced to warrant an investigation. y —_———— CHARLEY MITCHELL WILL STAND BY AGREEMENT ‘White’'s Manager Still Has Hopes That Coffroth Will Pull Off the Fight. Charley Mitchell, manager of Jabez White, called upon Manager Coffroth of the Yosemite Club last night and asked him what he was going to do about the proposed Britt-White bat- tle, which is scheduled to take place this month. “Charley,” said Coffroth, “you have signed to box before my club on April 26. If I do not pull off the contest on that date, you are through with me.” Before their meeting ended Coff- roth gave Mitchell assurance that he would give him a definite answer on Friday night, or possibly to-night, and let him know just what he intends to do. Coffroth says he has plans in view which he wants to think over. He has not given up hope of getting the permit. Mitchell says he has a.contract with the. Yosemite Club and he intends to keep it. He said: “I will fill my part of the contract and perhaps go a lit- tle further if I am assured Ce can bring Britt and White t . He has been under a big expense in making this match and has treated our party very failrly. I am not dis- couraged and think Britt and White will eventually come together. I have been supervising White's and he is going along just as if noth- ing was in the way and will be ready when called upon to box.” — i 'WILL BEOUEATHS $8000 TO AN ALAMEDA WOMAN Last Testament of Edward E.

Mai Little, Big Cut Made in Purchase Price of Petroleum in Kansas and Penn- sylvania. INDEPENDENCE, Kans., April 13.— The price of Western oil was reduced § cents a barrel to-day, to 61 cents for high grade and 5 cents less a barrel for each half-degree under 32 degrees grav- ity. This makes the price of fuel oil in Kansas 21 cents a barrel. It is the gen- eral opinion of the oil men in this dis- trict that the price of high grade oil will go to 30 cents a barrel unless drill- ing is suspended. It is estimated that the Western fleld is now capable of pro= ducing 50,000 barrels a day, while there is a market for only 8000 barrels. PITTSBURG, April 18.—The Standard Oll Company made another reduction in the price on all grades of crude oil. The higher grades were dropped 2 cents and the lower grades 1 cent. This makes the third cut in ofl within a month. The quotations follow: Pennsylvania $1 31, Tiona $1 46, Corning 98 cents, Ca- bell $1 06, Newcastle $1 23, North Lima 88 cents, South Lima 83 cents, Indiana 83 cents, Somerset 77 cents, Raglan 50 cents. —_—— PLEADS GUILTY AND IS FINED BY TELEPHONE Tllinois Farmer Given Long-Distance Hearing So as Not to Delay His Work.
