SAN JOSE, CAL, July ga party of fisher

markable discovery, which, If true, will fur

friends during the rest of the season. The
party was eamped along the Ysabel, and one
day one of its anglers discovered at the river s

reservoir of about 200 yards in length. The
pond was literally alive with large landlocked
trout, and now the sportsmen of San Jose pro-
pose making the place preserve.
But for the usual activity and interest dis
played among the cyclists sports of all kinds
in the Garden City would be dead. Several
parties have gone deeT-hunting, but have met
with poor success. Game Warden Mackenzie

FIGHTING THE STEAMERS
The Southern Pacific Com
pany SIaughters Rates to
Oregon.
Freight Tariff From California Re-
duced More Than One-Half.
Refrigerator Cars.

The Southern Pacific Company issued a
freight tariff yesterday to take effect Au-
gust / on all shipments between stations
on the railway in California, Arizona,
New Mexico, Utah and Nevada and the
stations in Oregon, Ashland to Portland,
inclusive.
According to the latest schedule old
rates have been ruthlessy slaughtered,
such a rate as 81, for instance, being re-
duced to 40 cents on 100 pounds. And it
all came about through the competition of
coasting steamers.
The railroad people found that it was
losing the cream of its freighting business
to points within the influence of water
transportation, and have made sweeping
and general reductions which may be met
by the steamship companies Immediately.
1t may be that this is the beginning OF a
rate war which will be watched with con-
siderable interest by shippers.
From San Francisco, San Jose, Sacra-
mento and intermediate points, the follow
ing reductions have been made to Portland,
East Portland, Willsburg. Milwaukee,
Clackamas. Paper Mill, Oregon City, New
Era, Candy, Barlows, Aurora, Hubbard,
WOODBURY., Gervais, Brooks. Salem, Tur-
ner, Marion, Jefferson, Albany:
First class, 81 to 40 cents; second, 80 to 40:
third, IS to 40; fourth, rs to IS; in carloads,
fifth class 65 to 80: class A, 81 to 80; class b,
45 to 25; class c., 40 to %; class D, 35 to 90;
class E, 80 to 20 cents hundred pounds.
To Eugene and Roseburg the rates have
also been reduced in harmony with those
made against the steamers. They are as
follows in the same respective classes:
Eugene, ST to rs, 80 to IL, IS to 81, rs to So.
IS to 81, 81 to 81, As to As, 40 to So, 35 to %,

A weekly refrigerator car service from
San Francisco, Sacramento and Reno TO
Ogden, Butte, Helena and intermediate
stations for the purpose OF transporting
dairy products, fresh fish, fresh meats and
oysters in less than carload quantities was
definitely announced yesterday. The first
car will leave San Francisco August 2, and
a car will leave every succeeding Friday
thereafter. The rates will be on each one
hundred pounds as follows:
Butter, in boxes or barrels, or in tin, 81 90;
cheese, in boxes, tubs or casks, 81 50; eggs,
o. r. B. and weather, or released, in barrels or
boxes or in patent carriers, 81 90; fish, fresh,
o. r. of decay and weather, or released, 50 10;
oysters and CLANS, fresh, o. r. OF loss, decay

vent it. 1t will certainly not have a
tendency to increase the popularity of the
game 1t was something of a similar
nature that prevented the match between
Harlow and Riordan for the coast cham
pionship, and If the Kilgallon-H Harlow
match should end in like tiasco the best
interests of handball will suffer.
Another match that will excite consider
able interest has been arranged between
KilgalIon and T. f. Bonnet of the Occi
dental court. Bonnet is unquestionably
one of the cleverest amateur players on
the coast and his friends think that he can
defeat Kilgallon. He plays purely for the
love of the sport, and the match will ac-
cordingly be a question of skill, but it
will be none the less exciting because
there will be no money on the result. No
date has yet been fixed for the match.
Kilgallon, since his defeat with Harlow
as a partner and later with Lawless as a
partner by Champion Jones of Australia,
has been hunting around for another part
ner to try conclusions with Jones again.
1t is said that he has fixed upon r. Leni-
han, the clever amateur player OF the
Union court. Lenihan has probably no
equal on the line and Kilgallon thinks
with him there he could deal effectively
with Jones tossing. Jones expresses his
willingness to play the two whenever they
find it convenient for any amount.
The match between w. McManus, pro-
prietor of the Union court, and Phil Ryan,
proprietor of the San Francisco court,
hangs fire, and people are unkind enough
to say that each is afraid of the other.
They both express an overwhelming de-
sire to play the match, each being assured
of success, but no arrangements have yet
been made McManus still carries the
chip on his shoulder and wants Phil to
knock it off, but Phil thinks he has an equal
right to carry a chip on his shoulder and is
waiting for Billy to knock it off. How it
will all end is mystery.
1t is safe to say that if the match should
come off it will be worth coming miles to
see. So as not to be caught mapping Ryan
is dieting himself in anticipation of hard
contest. He has venison and poached eggs
for breakfast, quail and toast washed
down by half dozen XXX's for dinner,
game chicken and half a dozen red-hot
tamales for supper. Ryan knows trick
or two worth keeping.
The following are the principal games to
be played in the Occidental court to-
morrow: C. j.. McGlynn and D. NJ STAN
ley against P. F. Mccormick and Gerald
Goggin; Al Collins and L. Kenny against
NJ. Condor and ]. Slattery; Willie Jacobs
and Ben Clemmens against J. E. O'Meara
and T. Clemmens. In the game of the day
T. F. Bonnet and Ed Maloney will play
against John Purcell and Charlie Sullivan.

to protect the game of the valleys. The act
creating the Office of game warden is regarded
by sportsmen as the best move ever made in
their interest, and it is certain had game war
dens and deputies been as numerous ten years
ago as they are to-day, there would have been
some decent fishing and hunting in Cur valley
now.

UKIAH SPORTING.
Andy Clunie's Wonderful Shot in
the Dark-Gun and Rod.

UKIAH, CAL, July 25.-From the number of
persons camping, fishing, etc., it is evident
that the natural attractions of Mendocino
County for camping and outing and the album
dance of fish and game are becoming wei
known.
1t is rather late for trout fishing except at re-
mote points and sources of streams not visited
in the spring, where perhaps the chances of
bagging good catches of fish are better.

HANDBALL.
Players Who Cannot Agree Upon
Courts-Games Tomorrow.

COurtS-GameS Tomorrow.
An unexpected hitch has arisen in the
arrangements for the match between NJ. J.
Kilgallon, the Denver champion, and ].
Harlow, the coast champion. The under
standing was that the match would take
place in the San Francisco court, but
when the parties met on Monday night to
settle the preliminaries Kilgallon made it
a condition that they should play the best
of five games in each of the three courts,
the San Francisco, Occidental and Union.
This Harlow's friends objected to
on the ground that it would take
too long to decide who was the
winner, and also that it would make
the match look too much like ''fake.
They were willing that if match, the best
Of five games, was played in the San Fran
cisco court to decide the championship as
originally proposed, Harlow would play a
return match in either of the other courts
selected by Klgallon. So the matter
rests at present, neither party having
shown any inclination to agree 20 the
others terms. There is a keen desire on
the part of handball players to- see match
between these two, and it is pity that
hitch OF this kind should intervene to pre-

An Informal Discussion on Pavements
by the Finance Committee OF the
Supervisors.

Il
Supervisors.
The Finance Committee of the Board of
Supervisors met yesterday afternoon and
informally discussed the Folsom-street
boulevard and the completion of the new
City Hall. Chairman Taylor seemed to be
against the incorporation of an $50, 600 ap-
preparation in the tax levy for the boule-
ward. Supervisor Taylor said that he was
not in favor of tearing I'D pavements
which had been in place only sixty days
for the accommodation of wheelmen at the
expense of the City, which is not in condi-
ton to stand the expense.
Regarding the proposition to include an
appropriation in the tax levy for the COM
pletion of the new City Hall, Mr.. Taylor
was opposed to taking any action this
year. The committee was to have met
last night to consider the tax levy, but
postponed the meeting until next Tuesday
night in consequence of the absence Of
Supervisor Benjamin from the City.
