10 HEAVY-WEIGHT BOXERS MAY BE MATCHED BY THE SAN FRANCISCO ATHLETIC CLUB OFFICIALS FOR A TWENTY-ROUND BOUT AS THE ATTRACTION FOR NEXT MONTH HONITON EASILY TAKES THE HANDICAP AT OAKLAND FIVE PUBLIC CHOICES GO BY THE BOARD Sunny Shore Comes From the Rear and Wins. Wheln the bookmakers chalked up 4 to 6 about Honiton ln the betting on the Futurity course handicap at Oakland yesterday the figures read like a comic valentine. Even though asked to carry 124 pounds, "Packey" Ryan's crack mare had nothing to beat. To be sure, Misty's Pride is a clever piet of racing material, but she had a hard race ihe preceding: day. Lindsay Gordon is a Derby prospect and was 100 to 1.

Rector is only a fair plater, Sea Voyage might have had a chance with a ninety horse-power Mercedes machine behind to push her along. Minder didn't get Honiton away weii from the -barrier, bo took matters quietly to the stretch. Then he made hie move and at the end the favorite breezed in before Rector and Sea Voyage in within half a second, Of the track record. PROFITABLE DAY FOR BOOKIES. To the handicap winner belongs the honor of saving the ravorites from a massacre, as five other choices veie lurked snugly away In their little trundle beds.

The ring must have had a profitable day. There were fourteen starters in the maiden 2-year-old scramble, and the v-inner turned up ln Bellona, a daughter of Beau Ormonde. The filly was 7 to 1 In the ring and, ridden by Travers, lasted long enough to beat the favorite, George A. Knight, a head. harley Patterson's lsabeau finished third.

Bob Ragcn. the 7-to-10 favorite for the eix-and-a-half-furlong run far 3-year-olds, was so stiff and sore that i he should have been in a sanitarium instead of out racing. Possibly to this i fact can be attributed the rush to get aboard Rowell's Mistress of Rolls, i played from 1L down to 6. Everything into line but Saccharate, the Napa Stock Farm entry- Not conceded a i rhance and drifting back to 11 to 1. i 'Big Bill" Knapp took the chestnut i filly out In the lead and in a drive she downed Mistress of Rolls a length.

The lavorite ran third. Bob Smith's Silent Water, an 11 to 6 choice for the five and a half furlong dash, also decided under celling conditions, finished second to Sir Preston. The favorite raotfi Agnes Mack subjection and was in turn easily 'ed of by the second choice, also i piloted by Knapp. The show fell to 1 Rf vr.it. Plckaway failed to display any speed.

JURE DUX3TS COLORS IN FRONT. Dropping from the clouds, it almost d. Jere Dunn's Bunny Shore took the mile and a furlong Belling fixture, o.uoted at 7 and 8 to 1 ln the ring. The P.alma gelding is a very slow beginner and during the earlier stages of the running looked hopelessly out of it. TV" right, who had the leg up, stuck to the rail though and turning into the stretch had a good position.

From there home there was nothing to it, the Dunn entry wading past the leaders and scoring almost easily from the favorite. Cinnabar. Theodore L. was third. Another fancy priced one came down the line first ln the concluding mile and fifty yard number.

Rather accorded the overlook at 10 and 12, Louis Ezell's finished nearly a length in advance of the favorite. Best Man, at the wire. After cutting out the pace Haven Run weakened, running a moderate third. TRACK NOTES. Knapp piloted two winners.

Bellona Is trained by the veteran Bea Tiramons, one of the best hand- Bf two-year-olds in the country. Alec Forbes sold Miller's Daughter after claiming the filly from race for $1000. Zlck Al.raniß is the reputed purchaser. Well, one point in question has finally been settled Sir Preston is a much better horse on a dry track than he is on a heavy one. Colonel Jack Price, a member of the board of stewards controlling the Canadian circuit, waa a visitor yesterday at Oakland.

CARDINAL NINE IS VICTORIOUS Takes Its First Game of the Season by Defeating Clabrough Golcher Team STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Feb. 14. Stanford won her first baseball victory of the season to-day in the first game of the series with the Clabrough- Golcher team of San Francises. The score wag 6 to 6.

Throughout the first six innings the cardinal team played a ragged game, the poor fielding and batting being inexcusable at this time of the season. The Clabrough-Golcher team secured its first run in the second Inning, the score being directly attributable to the errors of the home team. In the fourth Stanford succeeded ln bunching enough errors to permit four more men to cross the plate. On three bases on balls of Hughes In the fifth inning, together with an error, Stanford scored two runs. The score was tied ln the eighth through a single by Stott, a two-bagger by Colbert, and a home-run by Fenton.

All three runs were secured off Parker. The concluding score was made in the ninth inning on a forced run, giving Stanford her first victory out of the five games played this season. The pitching of Thiele, a hitherto untried freshman, who succeeded Sales in the fifth inning, was one of the features of the game from a Stanford standpoint. Federal Promotions.

Regardless of the traditions of St.

Valentine's day as to the supposed happiness of mates, Freda Coffey and her husband, Edward Coffey, the latter a well-to-do building contractor, tcld yesterday in Judge Troutt's court many unlovely incidents of their married life. The wife seeks a divorce on the ground of cruelty. She said that her si ouse has a "very, very, very vile temper," that he called her unmentionable words, which she mentioned glibly, and that on one occasion he grabbed his 4-year-old son (by a former marriage) by the heels and threatened to dash out his brains. When this was prevented by Mrs. Coffey and her mother, Mrs.

Olson, Coffey said he would cut the boy's throat. Mrs. Olson, a member of the Salvation Army, corroborated her daughter's evidence. When Coffey took the stand, he told another story of their home life. He his wife was extravagant, staid away from home, would not cook his meals and swore at him.

Evidence as to his own "Christian spirit" and devotion to hard work and of his domesticity was given by several of his friends. The trial has not been finished. Divorce was granted yesterday by Judge Sloss to Anna Hennessy from William Hennessy for neglect, and by Judge Murasky to Maggie Gunther from William C. Gunther for desertion. Suit for divorce was begun by Charles O.

Perdue against Clarisa M. Perdue, desertion; Lulu Campbell against Charles Campbell, desertion; William S. Wallace against Carolina P. Wallace, desertion. OBJECTS TO MURDERER BEING OUT ON BONDS District Attorney Bylngton Wants Aged Joseph Smith Remanded Into Custody of the Sheriff.

Joseph Smith, an aged contractor, appeared in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday and pleaded not guilty to the charge of murder against him. The case was continued till Saturday to be set for trial. Smith shot and killed Joseph E. McGowan on the morning of November 26 in a brickyard on Mission street belonging to McGowan's father. District Attorney Byington asked the Judge to make an order remanding the defendant Into the custody of the Sheriff, and that he not be allcwed his liberty on bonds.

The defendant's attorney, Frank J. Murphy, objected to such an order being made and at his request action was deferred till Saturday. After Smith was held to answer without bonds by Police Judge Mogan aii application for a writ of habeas corpus for his release was made before Judge Cook. The application was denied, but the Judge ordered Smith released on $20,000 bonds pending his trial. SUPREME COURT HEARS STORIES OF TROUBLES Litigants Who Are Dissatisfied With Decisions of Superior Judges Present Their Appeals.

The Supreme Court yesterday set the case of Kennedy vs. Lee for hearing on March 6. It is thought that Governor Pardee -will have appointed the Judges of the District Courts of Appeal by that time so the eighth Justice needed to decide the case mentioned may be secured. Arguments were heard yesterday before the court in bank in the cose of Solomon Kusel, who has appealed from a judgment of divorce against him. The plaintiff is a septuagenarian, who has found married life a hopeless failure.

His wife has sued him five different times and his modest fortune has gone in paying attorneys' fees. He also wants his wife enjoined from bringing any more divorce suits. The matter was submitted on briefs. The court refused to release F. A.

Robinson, who petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus on the ground that he had been illegally indicted by the Grand Jury of Merced County. MARVIN HART AND JACK JOHNSON MAY DON THE GLOVES HERE NEGOTIATIONS PENDING FOR HEAVYWEIGHT BOUT After canvassing the entire pugilUtlc field of the country. Matchmaker Alex Greggains is back to the Marvin Hart-Jack Johnson fight again. These two heavyweights seem to promise a lively encounter and as the ring goers have had a surfeit of the midget boxers recently this a pleasing change. Hart was prepared to leave for Hot Springs last night, but Manager Oreggains prevailed on him to remain over.

It is expected the boxers and the club officials will have a conference to-day when some definite action will be taken. Hart has the reputation of being an aggressive fighter and as Johnson is noted for his cleverness the bout should be an Interesting one. One thing ln favor of the match is that the men are on the ground and are anxious to fight. A permit has not been granted as yet for March, but the only application presented to the Supervisors is that of the San Francisco Athletic Club. The idea of matching Britt for next month seems to have been abandoned.

He wants 70 per cent of the gross receipts. The promoters seem inclined to give only 50 per cent for their fights this year, so it is difficult to talk business with Britt.

Attorney George D. Collins, on behalf of the four Chinamen who were subpenaed but failed to appear to testify before the Police Commissioners at the hearing of the charges against Police Sergeant Thomas P.

Ellis, yesterday applied to the Superior Court for a writ of certlorari. and a hearing will be had before Judge Sloss this afternoon. The court is asked to declare that the Police Commissioners have exceeded their Jurisdiction. The petitioners are Mar Lin Kit. Chin Kirn You, Chin Bock Guy and Quan Bun.

The subpenas were Issued on February 7 for them to appear before the commission on the evening of that day. They did not appear, and on Monday, by resolution, the commissioners ordered the Issuance of writs of attachment for the arrest of the delinquents, returnable to-day, when the Chinamen would be expected to show why they should not be punished for contempt. The validity of this action is questioned upon the ground that the police board has no Jurisdiction to issue attachments for the arrest of any person for contempt; that there is no authority in law for such proceeding, and on the further ground that there was no service of the subpenas. It 13 also contended that the absence of an affidavit for the issuance of the writs is a jurisdictional defect.

During the trial of Jan Kan in United States District Judge de Haven's court yesterday afternoon Assistant United States Attorney Ben L. McKinley and Thomas C. West, the latter attorney for the defendant, got into a wrangle concerning the competency of certain questions propounded to a witness. Judge de Haven sharply rapped upon the table with his gavel and spoke his mind. He said that the counsel had been "snapping and such conduct might be tolerated in a polite court, he added, "but it cannot be permitted here.

If I have occasion to call the matter to the attention of counsel again I shall do it in such a way that the counsel will know it. I want this case conducted in such a manner that an American citizen need not hang his head in shame."

The theory of the defense is that Jan Kan was deceived as to identity of Tong Qual Ho, the young Chinese girl who waa brought to this country under the name of Li Ml Ho. The trial will be resumed this morning. DRUGGIST IS CHARGED WITH GIVING A BRIBE Secretary Crowley of State Board of Pharmacy Obtains Warrant for John English's Arrest.
