GAELIC FOOTBALL,
The Champion Teams of the Coast
Will Meet To- Morrow.

The sport-lovng public who are always
on the alert for anything good in the ath-
letic line should certainly not miss a game
of Gaelic football which will be played to-
morrow afternoon al Central Park.
Gaelic football is quite similer to the
association game, and just Numerically
opposite to that of intercollegiate football.
In either of the two former games a
spectator can see every play done during
the contest, out the same cannot be said of
the college game. which in its greater part
is made up of scrimmages with the players
heaped uOOn one another, presenting the
appearance of tower of Christmas dolls.
There is no such thing as the piling up of
anatomies in either the association or
Gaelic games, and as result every good
and bad play that is made can be seen by
every spectator. Football, as it should be
played, will be Witnessed on Sunday, and
those who favor a good scientific game
should not miss the opportunity of seeing
the two cham pion teams of the coast in
action. The lineup will be as follows:

aforesaid bullets were meant to perforate
the anatomy of Max R1senfeld. Several
facts tend TO point in that direction.
Frank Cooley, proprietor of the saloon
where the shooting took place and who
was behind the bar at the time, made the
following statement yesterday:
81 have seen MANY rows and scraps IN
nv time, but | never before saw anything
like thai OF last night. Why, it was like a
thunder clap, it came so suddenly and
without any words OF warning. There
must have been a row or quarrel of some
kind before the young men came into my
place, otherwise they could not have acted
as they did.

WILL BE THERE.
A Delegate to the Labor
Convention.
The Labor Council Elects a Man
After Much Debate-A Three.
Cornered Musical Row.

The San Francisco Labor Council, at It's
regular meeting last night, decided to send
a delegate to the American Federation of
Labor. which will meet in Denver, Colo,
on December 10. There was much de bat
ing, motioning and reconsidering before
this result was reached. 1t was the sense
of the council throughout that delegate
should be SEM. but it costs $3.50 to make
the trip, and there was only $37 80 in the
treasury for the purpose desired. The
motion to send delegate was tabled, re-
considered and finally carried.
w. Macarthur of the Seam ems Union
was elected as delegate TO the federation
with the understanding that he shall
make the trip on the SS7 so which is in
sight. if no more can be secured. The
shortage in the fund was due to the ia ct
that some of the unions had decided
against sending delegate at all. The
Typographical Union had appropriated
$50 toward the fund for the defense of the
prosecuted A. r. U. strikers in Woodland,
believing that ma tier of more importa ce
than delegates tour to the Rockies. an
therefore, did not appropriate any money
for such trip. 1t is believed, however,
that the shortage of $50 30 can be made up
by soliciting donations from the various
unions.
There is a three-cornpred row going on
between the Musicians Union of Oakland,
the Alameda County Federated Trades
and the Musicians Union Of this city. The
sum and substance of the controversy is
that the Oakland musicians want to shut
out the San Francisco musicians from Oak
land business. The management of the
Peoples Theater IN Oakland has been pre-
scented with a petition signed by the Ala
media County Federated Trades and about
sixty Oakland business men requesting
that none but Oakland musicians be en-
ployed in said theater. Tie Musicians
Union of Oakland does not figure as
petitioner, but to the men on this side ii
looks as if their brethren across the bay
wanted TO put up fence to keep them out.
Mr. Schubert of the San Francisco
Musicians Union brought the matter be-
fore the council and asked that some
action be taken. The matter was referred
TO the executive committee for adjustment.
The secretary reported that the fund
raised for the defense of the A. K. u. men
who are under legal fire at Woodland now
amounts to 1890
Tie Seamen's Union reported wages
low, long hours of labor and work scarce,
notwithstanding general raise in freight
rates.
The cigar-makers reported that business
is very dull and general falling off in the
demand for uoi0n-made cigars.
The Sailors Union reported that their
strike is still on, but that trade is grad
ually turning t. houses that employ union
labor. The delegate further reported that
one of their mem ers had been arrested
for posting a boycott circular. He had
been arraigned before Judge Campbell
and was allowed to go unscalhed.
The delegates devoted the remainder of
the evening TO discussion on the platform
proposed by the American Federation of
Labor.

SIGNED FOR ANOTHER YEAR
No Differences Except as to
Amount of Salary.
THAT MATTER EASILY SETTLED.
Yesterdays Action by the Associa-
ton Looked Upon as Favorable
for the Valley Road.

Up TO yesterday morning there had been
doubts entertained by many friends of the
Traffic Association as to whether MIR.
Leeds would be retained in his position as
manager Of that body or not; but when
the executive committee got together and
talked the matter over it was finally de-
cided 10 re-sngage the gentleman named
for another year.
This action is one that has been under
consideration for some time, and was the
cause of large attendance at the meeting
esterday, the following members being
present: President Isaac Upham, Vice.
Presidents Watt and Van Sicklen. Charles
M. Yates. John Taylor, n. P. Cole. Ansley
Davis, A. j. Marcus. E. A. Phelps, John

Hayward and Durham were out of town,

EVOLUTION OF RELIGION.
Christianity Alone Supplies All the
Universal Requirements.

Professor Wilbur W. Thoburn. who oc-
cupies the chair of ethics at Stanford Uni
versity, delivered a lecture on the "Evolu-
Lon of Religion" in the Second Unitarian
Church, corner Of Capp and Twentieth

a series of lectures on social evolution,
which were arranged by Rev. Leslie
Sprague, pastor Of the church. There was
a large attendance.

Loughborough gave the cane a kick, at
which affrnni Rosenfeld quickly landed a
oiow on the kicker's jaw. This blow was
followed up by another. and then Lough-
borough began 10 shoot. Then there was
chaos in Gobey's saloon.
LoughborOugh was seen at the City
frlson yesterday and was requested to tell
his side of the story. For answer he stated
that be would not under any clrcum-
stances talk on the subject. His father
ana his attorneys had positively forbidden
him TO talk to reporters or anybody else.
Shortly after o'clock young Tough bor-
ough was charged on the prison register
with assault to murder. Two charges
were preferred. His father, who since
morning had been working for his release
upon bonds. went before Police Judge
Joachimsen and represented the true facts
OF the case and the condition OF the
wounded men. Bonds we've fixed al $500
upon each charge. MI. LougnDorougu anu

! Drs. Winslow Anderson, G. E. Cooper
and F. G. Gregory Flesher held consulta-
ton over the injured man last night and
prUbed the wound slightly, but the bullet
was not found, and 1t was deemed best to
not attempt any further surgical oper-
ations until further developments in the
wounded mans condition. The bullet did
not penetrate the peritOneal cavity. but
glanced around TO the muscles OF the
| back. In an interview with DR.. Cooper
| last night that gentleman said:
''TheTe is danger. certainly, and 1t is i'm
possible at the present time TO foretell the
result. The bullet carried with it a scrap

gical standpoint this is always considered
infectious and germiferous and may bring
on fever at any time. There is still danger

Caught While "Going Through" the
Pockets of a Laborer Who Had
Only Seventy-Five Cents.

The footpad industry, which has Ian
guished ever since Judge Wallace began
to impose heavy sentences upon those
seems to be reviving.
Early yesterday morning a baker was
attacked at the corner of Pacific and
Stockton streets, and poor laborer was
garroted half an hour later near tho corner
of Sacramento and Leidesdorff streets.
Two of the men who fell upon the work
ingman were captured and booked for
robbery at the OLD City Prison, but the
breadmaker's assailants escaped.
The baker. whose name is Schmidt, re-
sides on Lombard street. He had been
drinking and when he started up Pacific
street at O'Clock in the morning the side
walk was none too wide for him. A
printer followed the baker up the street
and saw two men spring upon him from
recessed doorway near the corner of Pa
cific and Stockton.
One of the bakers assailauts struck him
over the shoulder with a sandbag and he
went to his knees. The prn ter saw the
blow given and shouted to the robbers.
