A MTLLlONAIRE'S AMBITION
Is Not Fully Satisfied With Horse
Show Prizes
Denver Ed Smith Bests Mike Quinlau in
One Round and Announces His
Readiness to fleet Anybody

| Associated Press Special Wire.
| SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 14.-SiX races
were on the card at Ingleside today, and
the weather being perfect, large crowd
attended. The mile and an eighth handi-
cap was the best rece of the day, and
seven high-class horses contested in this
event. w. S. Hobart's Bright Phoebus
| was the fovorite a. 6 to 5. with Pepper
next in demand at 2 to 1. Cadmus and
Santiago were as high as 20 to l, owing to
| the fact that they were short of work.
Miller kept Bright Ph9bus in third posi-
ton from which he never moved until
| furiOng from home, where he passed the
| fast firing Polaski and won in a canter;
| Polaski, the outsider. lasted long enough
| to secure second place from Pepper.
J.O. C. met his Waterloo today in the
hurdle race, the heavy weight he was
Obliged to carry proving too much for him.
Mestor, at TO l, who was in very light,
won the race, while j. y. G. secured the
place. Four favorites, one third choice and
one outsider were winners. Weather clear;
track good. Summaries:

| Walter Hobart, the young millionaire
who won so many prizes at the horse show,
| is ambitious to become turf magnate.
He has been an almost constant attend
ant at the Ingleside track, and although he
is by no means a heavy better, consider
| ing his wealth, he takes great interest in
! the races. Several days ago he went
to the men who control the track and
| asked to be allowed to purchase
some stock in the corporation. Negotia-
| tons were at once entered into and a
block of the stock of the association was
transferred to him. At the meeting next
Tuesday he will be elected a director.
just how deeply Mr.. Hobart has interested
himself is not announced, but as he re-
CARDS the Ingleside venture as good BUSH
ness D proposition, it is likely that he has
| invested large sum.
Whether the directorate of the Jockey
| club will be increased to admit Mr.. Ho-
! bart, or whether some one at present
director will resign in his favor, has not
been announced. 1t ia within the power of
| the Jockey club to add to the number OF
| Its directors whenever it cares to do 80.
The decision of Mr.. Hobart TO interest
himself financially in the race meetings
at Ingleside is of considerable interest
| to horsemen all over the country. 1t
means that his interest in turf affairs is
to be permanent.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA meeting of the
transmissouri lines of the Western Pas
senger association will be called next week
to consider the troubles between the Dem
yer and Rio Grande and the Union Pacific
over the tickets in Colorado and Utah.
There is strong disposition among many
of the lines to take sides with the Denver
and Rio Grande in the matter, al
though no opportunity has yet been given
the Union Pacific to present its side of the
question. The majority of the lines have
worked so hard to put the Western Passen-
ger association on it's feet once more that
they are prone to feel strongly against any
line whose actions may in any way tend to
disrupt the association, and it is a sure
thing that unless the present matter is
speedily settled the transmissour portion
of the agreement will be knocked into
nothing in very short order.

New YORK, Dec. 14.-Another big strike
in the building trades is on, and has al
ready involved more men than that OF the
housesmiths, which ended yesterday. A
thousand Knights of Labor, steamfitters
and helpers, members of the Enterprise as
ISOLATION, are striking against the Master
Steam and Hot Water Filters association
to enforce the adoption of the annual agree
nent and scale of wages and the recoRni-
ton of the Steamftters' and Helpers
union. The strike may involve thousands
of union mechanics affiliated with the
steamfitters and helpers. In the board Of
walking delegates and building contractors
assembly there are 25S Knights of Labor.
The strike has already caused suspen-
sion of work on more than 200 new build
ings where steam power and steam heat
are required during prevailing cold
weather, consequently many workmen of
other trades and occupations are necessa-
rily out of work.

There will be a game of baseball for sac
charine charity's sake next Saturday, The
opposing teams will consist Of members of
the California club and residents of the
Abbotsford Inn. The teams are not yet
fully made up, but all the chappies in town
have forsworn cigarettes, hoping that they
may be chosen as one of the elect. Arthur
Bumiller, better known as Noodles" has
been engaged at great expense-to Noodles
to act as backstop for the Abbotsford
team. "Bitern Ridenbaugh has signitied
his intention to play somewhere. though
everybody is trying to persuade him to put
a stopper on his rash determination. Joe
Bumiller will leave the finances of the
nation alone for day, and will twirl the
elusive sphere. Up at the California, sher-
ry and egg is in great demand, the mem
bers having been told by some designing
person that this concoction was good to
train on. When the opposing teams meet
the we'll known combat between Greek and
Dago will be entirely eclipsed.

The negotiations thus concluded by for.
NAL ratification of the boards of directors
of the respective companies had been
spun out until Wall street was
tired. They were attended by violent
fluctuations of Pacific Mail stock. The
origin of the dispute was a belief on the
part of the Panama people, whose prop
erty is owned in France by the liquidators
of unfortunate Panama canal, that the
road was simply catspaw in the hands
Southern Pacific railway interests. Presi-
dent Huntington did not arrive in time for

The Western Passenger Association Likely
to Be Disrupted by Action Of Trans

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-The bondholders
committee of the Atlantic and Pacific rail-
way has begun suit in the New York SUI
preme court against the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe railway, members of the
joint executive reorganization committee
of the New York Guarantee and Indemnity
company. Union Trust company and Mer-
camille Trust company, as repositories
and mortgages of the committee as
creditors of the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railway company to the extent
of $S,75O,OO0 on the Atchison guarantee
on their bonds. The plaintiff claims
the Atchison reorganization is in
effect a combination between stock
holders and bondholders to re-organize
the property in their interest stockhold-
ers as well as bondholders and reinstate
the existing securities in their order of
priority. and it cannot lawfully be done
to the exclusion and rights of Intermediate
creditors. The complainant does not seek
to prevent the completion of their reorgan-
ization or interfere in any way with the
rights or interests of the Atchison bond
holders, but bases its action on the princi-
pie that stockholders of an insolvent
debtor corporation cannot be combined
with any class of bondholders to SO ar
range as to retain their interests in the
property to and to the exclusion of inter-
mediate bona fide creditors.

therefore, that the United States at
torneys and marshals for the several
districts embracing the coast line be-
tween New York and Brownsville have
their attention called to this question,
and be especially enjoined to see to it
that the neutrality laws of the United
States are faithfully observed, and all
violations thereof promptly and yigor.

Complying with Mr.. Olney's sugges-
ton, Attorney General Harmon has di-
rected all United States attorneys and
marshals of the Atlantic coast line dis
tricts to act in conjunction, and to take
all steps necessary and proper to pre-
vent any violations of the neutrality
laws, acting promptly and vigorously.
