THE WIMAN CASE
Under Consideration by the New York Court
of Appeals

SALBANY, n. v, Oct. 31.-The court
of;appeals heard arguments today in the
case of Erastus Wiman, charged by mis-
late partners in the mercantile agency OF
RIG. Dun & Co., with forgery. The
c6nviction of Mr. Wiman under Judge
Ingfaham year ago last summer, when
lie was sentenced to Sing Sing for five
wears and half, was reversed by the ST.
prame court at its general term last
February, and 1t was against this decis-
ihn that the district attorney of New
York appealed. Inasmuch as the points
Involved relate mainly to what consti-
TOTES partnership by participation of
Iirolits and as there are thousands of
hatsiness esta blishments who have en-
lHoyees thus compensated, the cass is
likely to excite wide attention aside from
TIE, prominence and public service of Mr.
Wihian. The contention before the court
iStiivided into two sections, first as to
tlesgult or innocence of Mr.. Wiman,
resting upon his right to sign and in
tiorse the check in dispute. and second,
alto the errors of the trial Judge. The
tffst point may be determined upon the
deuision of the question whether Mr..

MATCH ON THE DIAMOND
Los Angeles Crosses Bats With the
Oakland Nine
The Latter Wins by a Score Of s to 4-Some
Fairly Good Sport Witnessed bya
Small Crowd

The Los Angeles and Oakland base ball
teams crossed bats in the first game of
the season played at Athletic park yester-
day afternoon. There was slim attend
ance. in all not more than 250 people,
but those who came enjoyed good game
OF ball. Owing to the rough condition of
the out-feld and the fact that this was
the first match that the teams have
played on the grounds, the score was not
up to the standard Of the men who ap-
peared. After some loose playing in the
first few innings the boys got down to
work. and from that on the match was
interesting.
ming, ana McQuaid started off with a base
hit Mertes took the stick and made a
sacrifice on which McQuaiu took second.
A base hit over second by Cantilion
put McQusid on third. Picket, second
baleman, made the first error of the
game ard Cantillion got down to third,
McQuaid scoring the first run. Spears
knocked giounder to shortstop and was
put out at first. McHale went out by
short strike to intield, and the side was
retired.
O'Rourke then took the willow for the
Oaklands, hunted the ball and reached
.:rst on account of the bageman's error.
Then he stole second, catcher throwing
too low to shut him out. Irwin was given
his base on balls. Van Haltren came up
next and lined out two Dagger to center
field. O'Rourke tried for home and was
put out. Van Haltren came over the plate
on this left field grounder by Burns, who
got to first. Picket lined out base hit
to shortstop. Another by Treadway
brought Picket to the middle, and an err
rOr by the second baseman allowed Burns
to score. Picket attem pied to reach third
and was cut out by shortstop. Mullane
got his base on balls. Wilson followed
Treadway in. Mullane came in after him
on an error of shortstop, failing to pick
up Jones' grounder. All hands had been
once to bat and O'Rourko again took up
the club, but was caught out on pop
fly to second. This ended the first inning,
with the score standing to in favor OF
Oakland.
The next inning was characterized by
the same unevenness Of playing, Oakland
showing superior batting qualities which
was partly offset by the other teams field
ing. Three more runs were made by the
northerne-s, while the Los Angeles boys
gained nothing.
From this on the game improved, no
scoring being done during the next two
innings.
In the fifth and sixth innings Lo, An
eeles scored three runs and their oppon-
ents made none. Then until the end of
the ninth no runs were made and the
score stood just as it was at the close OF
the sixth. The men came to bat and
were struck out in one, two. three order.
Excellent work was done by both bat
teries. The men On the Infelo began to
pick up and the match was concluded
with some very good playing all around.
Following is the official score in figures:

But Boodie was not to be denied and won

lengths behind Vlsalia. Time, 2:14A.
1t was rather a surprise to the betters
when Doodle took the lace in single
heats. The lameness Of Hillsdale put
Visalia in more secure position, but the
performa. ce of Doodle was great sur

THE LAST RACE
The last race of the dayl was the 2:30
pace. There were three starters. Path.

Pathmont went away in front and stay

shortly told, for Pathmont was never
headed. The quarter was made in IA,
and Ruby M. stayed with Pathmont till
the half was reached in 1:07, and tn en-

The third heat was Pathmont's all the
way round. He took the field to the
quarts in SO, and led down TO the hall
ut a good gait. Ruby NJ. was at his
wheel as they passed the half in l:O5A
and on the turn hung right on. Path
