FLEUR DE LIS TOOK A STAKE i'eated a Small but Select Field for the Shreve Cup. Charley Fink Made Another Cutaway With Bonita at Juicy Odds. Won she Hurdle Event With Good Price About Him. O'Connell In Form. Ie rainy condition of the weathers' away from the at Inthe crowd being a limited one for Saturday.

Scratch- GOING TO THE POST AND FINISH IN THE RACE FOR THE SHREVE CUP tng-was indulged in to a liberal extent fciy owners, and aside from the Shreve Ctfp handicap, the events were very commonplace. The track was sloppy, and it was quite up to race track etiquette that an unexpected winner should drop from the skies. The surprise was furnished for 3 occasion by Charley Fink of Newsgatherer fame, which owner cut Bonita loose in the last event of the day at odds of 40 to 1. The Shreve Cup was captured by the favorite, Fleur de Lis, and two other first choices succeeded in reaching the wire first. Tt was dull about the ring until the Shreve Cup was called; then bettors "THE CALL'S" RACING CHART.

PACIFIC COAST JOCKEY CLUB Ingleside Track Sixtieth day of the Winter Meeting. Saturday, January 8, 1898. Weather rainy. Track sioppy. unloosened.

Of the original large list of entries but seven accepted the weights. Pleur de Lis, with 113 pounds up and Willie Martin to do the piloting, had first call in the betting, at odds of 8 to 5, with equally as much coin going in on Tom Griffin's horse, Rubicon, at a shade higher price. The latter was injudiciously handled by Thorpe, or he might have been returned the winner. When tho field was sent away to a pretty start, Elrod rushed Lucky Dog out in front at a rattling clip, with Rubicon hard ridden at his heels. This was the race to the stretch, where the two leaders were staggering from the pace set.

The Dog quit first and Rubicon temporarily showed in front. The boys now all sat down to ride ir. earnest, and Griffin's entry was soon passed. Martin simply shook the favorite up. and, coming fast on the outside, the shapely daughter of Maxim won with apparent ease, reeling of the mile in In a drive Imp.

Tripping took the place from Shiller, with Rubicon a close fourth. The race was worth $700 to the winner, together with a valuable silver cup, presented by the firm of Shreve Co. On his preceding race, when beaten a head by San Venada. the Jennings entry, Glorian, with Willie Martin up was installed a 1 to 2 choice for the first race of the day, a seven furlong run for three-year-olds. It turned out only a gallop for Schreiber's Imperious which, coupled with Dr.

Bernays, was 6tol in the betting. The gelding made all the running, and led the favorite over the line in a gallop. Prestor finished a good third. The next event at six furlongs fitted O'Connell like a new overcoat, and with 1 to 2 about him in the ring around post time Speir's sprinter ran circles around his winning under restraint fmm Martha, second choice in the betting. The third choice, Zamar, finished in the show.

Cash Day and Lucky Dog were scratched. The mile and a furlong was conceded to Souffle before the race was decided and the mare won without difficulty, ruling a pronounced 11 to 12 favorite. Collins put up quite an argument for a piece of the route and then fell back, but came again at the end and secured THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JANUARY 9, 1898. the place from Personne. Benamela did not make much of a showing.

Some tall speculation was indulged in on the six starters in the mile and a half hurdle handicap. A big plunge was made on Nestor with McMahon in the saddle, forcing his odds down from 5 to 3 to 2 favoritism. He ran unpaced. McAuliffe sent the lightweighted Viking with a "'catch" of 123 pounds on his back out in front, and though once headed by Silverado, again assumed first position in the stretch and won hands down. Silverado took the place from Governor Budd in a drive.

The winner was a 10 to 1 chance. On all previous performances George Lee looked pounds the best of the six three-year-olds starting in the final mile, selling, run and was Justly installed a warm 7 to 10 chance. Piggott made a botch of it, getting him away from the post, and the youngster was never able to overtake the 40 to 1 shot Bonita ridden by Dick Clawson, which won, ridden out by a length. Track. Items.

J. j. O'Neill and Abe Levy, two well! known Eastern pencilers, are new ari rivals on the racing scene. No doubt they will both be seen on the block in the near future. The Pacific Coast Breeders and Own; era' Protective Association will hold a meeting at the Baldwin Hotel on day evening.

Morse rode Bonita on her previous essay, and according to the form book the filly was only beaten about thirty-three lengths. Those who backed her yesterday must have had some very, very choice information. Owner Fink, it is said, has fallen in love with our California climate, so much so in fact that he intends to have some, of it bottled to take back East with him in the spring. It certainly does work wonders with his horses. Ntwsgatherer's reversal cost him a I sixty-day suspension, and the pleasant recital of Bonita yesterday should cost him sixty years.

McAuliffe, who rode Viking, put up as nicely a timed ride as has been seen around in these parts for many a moon. If it is a good sample of what he is capable of doing the boy should have no difficulty in securing mounts. If Little Cripple was possessed of any speed during the early morning hours yesterday, the gelding must have loan; ed it to the horse occupying the stall next to him before the third race was called. Dave Gideon and Peter Riley had an even $500 on George Lee. They both viewed the race with feelings akin to a man falling from a balloon.

Personne, the "intermittent" horse, ran a very fair race yesterday. O'Con, nor. the diminutive Celt, handled him in clever fashion. Tlclnese Swiss Socltty. The annual installation of officers and banquet of La Tlcinese Swiss Society was held at their hall.

729 Montgomery street, on Wednesday evening. The following officers, newly elected, were installed: President. J. A. Pedrotta; vice-president, Charles Sciaroni; corresponding secretary, G.

Lepori; treasurer. G. Tonini; financial secretary, G. Mazzucchi. The proposition to have the notice of all future meetings and doings of the society sent to The Call for publication was received amid much enthusiasm and much comment was indulged in regarding the vast improvement In The Call under the new management.

THE OHIO SOCIETY. An Interesting Evening's Entertainment Given in trje Native Sons' Building. The second meeting of the Ohio Society was held last Friday night in Shasta Hall in the Native Sons' Buildi ing, and it was attended by a select dience of the friends of the memberj ship that filled the hall to its capacity. i The majority of those present were representatives of the nearly 5000 Ohioi ans who are residents of San co, and the interest in the affairs of the society was made manifest at that meeting. John A.

Hosmer delivered an eloquent and interesting address on the settlement and progress of the Maumee Valley, which was received with very flattering applause, and then there was presented a pleasing programme, which included vocal music by William 1 Grandeman, Mrs. F. A. Whiteside, coon dance, by Miss Lillian Rhodes: Instru- I mental solos, by Nelson F. Remlngj ton and Charles Mllner; recitations, by Miss Lena Grau and Frederick Head, and a fancy dance by Miss Lena S'hwaner.

Edwards Davis Complains He Has Been Libeled. Demands Fifty Thousand Dollars for the "Wrong Done Him. Accused of Hilarious Conduct the Night Prior to Durrant's Execution. THIS THE MINISTER DENIES He Also Refutes the Statement That He Was Employed as a Reporter. Rev.

Edwards Davis of Oakland i complains that a great Injustice was done him by a publication in the Bulletin of the issue of Friday, January 7, and he yesterday filed an action i against R. A. Crothers, proprietor of that journal of questionable methods, to recover $50,000 damages for the wrong he alleges has been done him. The article which, in his complaint. Rev.

Davis brands as llbelous is as follows: 'SAN QUENTIN PRISON. Jan. The scene at San Quentin last night has never had a like since the tall prison walls have marred the beauty of San Quentin Point. The darkness brought- a great crowd of persons, among the arrivals being Mr. and Mrs.

Durrant, invited spectators of the execution, newspaper men and the Rev. Edwards Davis of Oakland. Davis had come in the service of a morning i newspaper, and his actions last night will not soon be forgotten by those who witnessed them. He began his performance by entering the dining-room of the hotel, where a half dozen newspaper men were at their meal, and flourished a half-emptied bot- I tie over his- head while announcing In a nowise whispered tone that the: color of the contents was a bright red. He was attired as usual in a tall hat, I a modish frock coat and a white waist! coat.

Immediately after his dinner he was taken to an apartment and kept secluded until nearly 8 o'clock. An attempt was i made to Interview him, but a warder at his door announced that he was- under contract to talk for only one newspaper. At 8 o'clock the Rev. Edwards Davis drove up to the prison gate and was ad- i mitted to see the older Durrnnt. He remained In the about an hour and a half, and his exit from the prison was attended with some disturbance.

Several friends among the throng outside attempted to talk with him as he emerged through the gates. A scrimmage followed, during which the minister got very frightened, and the elder Durrant cried out to the crowd in a very shrill voice, tremulous with rage and excitetnrnt: "Ood! Haven't yon any respect for a minister of the gospel?" a prise-fighter named Rochette. who had Followed all evening In the wake of the Rev. Edwards Davs.shcwed a desire to rescue the minister by force from those who importuned him to talk, but a guard with a gun instantly subdued the I tighter. Davis then entered a waiting carriage and disappeared for the night.

Rev. Davis states in his pleadings that prior to the publication of that "defamatory" article he had always borne a good reputation, but since its publication he has been exposed to the hatred, contempt, ridicule and obloquy of those who read it. In consequence he alleges that he has been damaged in the sum of $50,000, which he now sues to recover. In the following signed statement Rev. Edwards Davis explains his association with Durrant upon which the Bulletin's attack was based: "My association with the Durrants at San Quentin was at their invitation.

I had no desire to be unnecessarily identified with the unfortunate family, but when I learned that the prisoner was dissatisfied with Chaplain Drahms and also with Rev. William Rader. I felt that I might be of service to the condemned man In his adversity. I thereupon consented to officiate. "Neither then nor now was I workins in behalf of the press, as is apparent from the fact that my only Intel view was limited to a few lines in the Examiner.

However, after remaining in the presence of the prisoner for over an hour, and being in conversation much of that time, I might have given an extensive report if Buch had been my desire. "The news gatherers on my Issuance from the prison became irascible because I would not pander to their demand. Their threats were ignored, as gentility r-nly could elicit my reply. That I was trying to assist and comfort the Durrants is evident from the fact that my reference to him was characterized with kindness and magnanimity. "I have no regret ahout the affair except in the case of libelous report- in that I was discharging a duty and I am not concerned about the consequences of right action.

Last Sunday I was unanimously elected to my fourth year's charge of the Central Church of Oakland. The church will not act without credible information; when it understands the animus of the prevarication it will make no complaint. "My attorneys, Thomas V. Cator and M. H.

Kingore, will have entire charge of the libel suit against the Bulletin. I have been forced to resort to this means to stop an indiscriminate use of my name. My bearing while on the trip can be proved to have been constantly consistent with my calling." MUST PAY THE PENALTY. Many Prisoners Sentenced Murderer Sentenced to Hang. Yesterday was sentence day in the various departments of the Superior Court, and several prisoners were placed away in prison therein to spend divers terms of years, while one, a Chinese murderer, was condemned to follow in the footsteps of to hang by the neck until he is dead.

Wee Ting, alias Wee Tung, who shot to death a relative named Yee Lack Chung in the old Globe Hotel Building on the 2d of last September, was the man sentenced to give up his life that the law might be vindicated. Judge Dunne passed sentence on the prisoner, but postponed the setting of the date of execution. This will be done in the near future. James H. Curnmings, a confidence operator, convicted of obtaining money under false pretenses a short time ago, was sentenced to eight years in Folsom Prison.

Sandy Malngren, who forged an order upon the Devany- Hopklns Company of this city and was convicted for the offense, was sentenced to spend the next six years of his life within the walls of San Quentin Prison. George Herring, convicted of mayhem, was sentenced to three years in Folsom. Charles Gordon was sent to Folsom for three years for attempting to pick the pocket of Mabel Allen on the 26th of last September. George Wilson, a second degree burglar, was given an opportunity to repent his sins during a two years' term in Folsom. With the sentencing of Wilson the labors of Judge Dunne in that line were for the week completed.

Leo Gauggel, convicted of criminally assaulting two young girls, was sentenced to 14 years in Folsom. In passing sentence Judge Cook said: "I am sorry the law will not permit me to give you life imprisonment. As it I will give you the 4 years." William Keenan, a clothing store burglar, was sentenced to four years in San Quentin. John Brown, who stole some torches from the Brooks-Follis Electric Company's establishment on Mis- Finn street, was sent to Folsom for four years. FOR LINCOLN'S MONUMENT!
