A sc,lner Fined for necention.

A decision was recently rendered by
Judge LAWYER of San Francisco, against
Adolph Ottinger, a ticket broker (scalper),
charged with obtaining money under false
.pretenses, which is Of more than ordinary
interest. as it shows that scalpers are liable
to criminal prosecution for deceiving pur-
chase~s of tickets. Ottinger was sentenced
to d. Vine of 500 or to be imprisoned for
100 da, s in the county Jail. The offense
was the selling Of a conductors train check
to L. Lambert, representing that 1t was
good for a passage from Sacramento to
Portland. Lambert was refused passage
and accordingly returned to San Francisco
and had Ottinger arrested. In rendering
his decision the Judge said:
4 "The defendant is in that business OF
5uying and selling railroad tickets, and Is
presumed to be fully familiar with the CON
ditions that are printed on such tickets.
One of the conditions of the tict et sold was
:enat It was to be good for five DAYS after
the date of issue, and = the party who pur-
chased it had Immediately continued his
trip he wouiI have reached Portland In
that time Such, however, was not done,
and the ticket had actually expired at the
time it was sold to the complainant, and ne
could not by any means be entitled to
travel from Sacramento to Portland 1t
was also condition Of the ticket that it
could not be used except by the purchaser
of the original ticket That was plain TO
rood unon the ticket. and Mr.. Ottinger
should have known that it would be an at
Tempt to practice an imposition on the com
nanv bv allowing stranger 10 ride upon

The Petrel,s Poor Speed.

BALTIMORE, July 1S.-On the return of
the Petrol tonight it was learned that her
best speed under forced draught was thir-
teen and seven tenth knots, or fifteen and
a half statute miles for short time, while
the average speed for a four hour test
was only eleven and seven tenth knots, or
thirteen and five-tenth statute miles. 1t is
thought that the low average speed is due
to improper coaling, the coal being of poor
quality and the fire being started long
before the test.

THE JUDGES.

The judges were d. L. Davis. OF the Salt
Lake club and G. o. Whittemore of the
Garfield club. Judge Webb acted as
referee and John Bechtol and J. A. Jen-
nings were the time-keepers.
To Judge Webb's well-known ability in
presiding at such affairs was due the
smoothness with which the first three
races passed off and to the fact that his
voice could not be heard IN the general DIN
raised by loud-mouthed betters was due
most of the confusion surrounding the last.
His decisions were all that could be desired.
The course was mile and return.

1T PROVES TO BEA GRAND SUCCESS
The Garfield Beach Club Wins the Single. the
Double and the Heavy Four-The Salt
Lakes Win the Light Four.

There was a big crowd at Garfield beach
yesterday afternoon to witness the first
great regatta between the two local boat
clubs, and the enthusiasm was quite as in
tense as on the occasion of the regatta
given year ago by the eastern oarsmen.
THE ENTHUSIASM
was quite as great as could have been ex-
pected, but it was only sample of what
will be shown at future affairs of the
kind The betting at first was tame, but
this may be accounted for by the factthat
the oarsmen are as yet unknown to the
public, as this was the first exhibition of
their skill. That there was such crowd
and so much interest in the first meet is
guarantee that the next one will be wit
messed by such i turnout as went to see
the eastern oarsmen year ago.

Thrilling Scenes and Heroic Conduct

Thrilling Scenes and Heroic Conduct
Aboard q Blazing Vessel.
The Hamburg-American Line steamer
Rugia, from New York for Hamburg, which
arrived few days ago at Plymouth, Eng,
reports that the cotton in her afterhold was
spontaneously ,ignited four nights previous
to her landing, in mid-oceau. The fire burned
fiercely, but was quenched after five anxious
hours, during which everything had been got
in readiness to abandon the steamer. One
hundred and thirty burning cotton bales
were jettisoned.
Great fright prevailed among the passen-
gers, who remained on deck for forty-eight
hours. Through the efforts to quench the fire
the cabins were flooded and two-thlrds OF the
passengers luggage was spoiled. Much praise
was given the Captain and crew for their
exertions Two Of the crew were injured. 1t
was feared that the steamers cargo was
greatly damaged.
After the fire had gained considerable
headway some Of those on board made prepa,,
rations to desert the ship, but were prevented
from doing so by the Captain, who threat
ened them with a revolver. When the iron
bulkhead doors were opened the heat became
so intense that many passengers were
scorched, and the cotton bales around the
passengers luggage took fire. Casks of lard,
which formed part of the vessels cargo, also
furnished fuel for the flames.
Hope had been well abandoned and boats
had been lowered to leave the threatened
steamer when it occurred to the Captain to
try steam instead of water against the fire.
This plan was put into execution and proved
successful. The passengers have presented
the Captain with an address, and the crew
with various gifts, as evidences Of gratitude
and esteem for their heroic work in'the midst
Of the dangers that encompassed them all.

OFFICIAL CROP REPORT.

The Condition Of Spring Flowing,
and Wheat and Cotton Planting.
The condition of winter wheat has ad.
vanced from g. to 96, Of rye from 93.9 to
9e.5. The general average Of winter barley
is $3.50; of spring pasture, 96.6; Of now

Pennsylvania average 96 and Maryland and
Virginia 9S.
Spring plowing is much further advanced
than on MAY Of last year. The percentage
Of plowing in preparing the seed bed and
planting spring crops not inclusive Of after
cultivation, which had already been done, is
836per cent, leaving one-sixth to be done in
May and June, mainly in northern latitudes.
Last year the percentage was 74.6. The
average of series Of recent years has been
about II. This season is therefore unusually
early.
The progress of cotton planting reported
in May by the Department of Agriculture is
as follows: On the first Of the month eighty
seven per cent. Of the proposed area was
planted. This is one point earlier than the
average of series of years Only Virginia,
