For some time past the Mckinley
National Committee have not issued a
brag manifesto, and it has been known
that their canvass of the doubtful states
have made the outlook too gloomy for
them to give out figures. 1t nowlooks
as if they proposed to make up for
it by shouting, and Boss Quay has come
to the front with the usual bluffing
style that distinguishes that gentleman
and is. claiming 270 votes for Mr.. Nc
Kinley, with the probabilities of his
getting 81 more than that number
Such estimates as these coming from
goldbug headquarters, read like re-
port of battle in Cuba, and are given

Mr.. Edwin Fox and family Left here
on Monday morning for Salt Lake,
Utah. Mr.. Fox had not fully decided
where will locate, but it viii be in some
of the mining camps in Utah and he
will leave his family in Salt Lake un-
til he looks over the ground and makes
a permanent location. In losing this
family DeLamar has sustained a loss
and their departure is universally re-
gretted. Especially is this the case
with the DeLamar Band, of which Mr..
Fox was a valued member, being an ex
cellent tuba player, and the Band will
have some difficulty in filing his place.
Here's success to you, Ed, wherever
you may go, and we heartily recommend
you and family to the people of the 10
cality in which you may elect to reside.

ball whenever it came his way. Then as
he began to acquire confidence in himself
be suddenly received a terrific blow below
the right ear. Pitcher Doyle had unex-
pectedly turned and tried to catch run
ner at second base. AS he whirled about
he threw the ball with all his strength.
Sharkey saw it coming but he could
neither sidestep nor stop it and he liter
ally "got it in the neck" The missile hit
him squarely. Sharkey shrugged his
shoulders, smiled sheepishly and the boys
on the bleachers yelled loudly. The San
Francisco players scurried around the
bases and before the startled pitcher knew
whether TO run for his life or go alter the
ball two unearned runs had been scored.
After that the honorary umpire lodged
whenever the ball came his way and was
evidently glad when the game was over.
When Corbett put in an appearance on
the grounds, unlike Sharkey, he failed to
be the recipient of bouquet. However,
his carriage called forth the full compile
ment of wordy gush, with which the
schoolgirls vocabulary is crowded. Isn't
he sweetW Just see what lovely COM
plexion!" ''Isn't he prettily built?" and
ali such stuff, were the Explanations to be
heard, and every once in a while some
irreverant boy would break IN with re-
marks that we're evidently out of place in
game where it was not baseball the dear
girls wanted to see, but Champion Corbett.
Charles Gagns umpired in a. most salts
factory manner. That is, it must have
been satisfactory, for at no time did the
Pacifics, with the cham pion on first base,
have any argument with him. All de-
cisions were carefully given against the
CALIFORNIA;, and no doubt they deserved
such treatment. lover of baseball
would probably go further than that, and
say they deserved worse treatment than
they received.
In the third inning Corbett was caught
mapping between first and second. His
friends said he had done it purposely to
allow Strei to make the home plate from
third. Perhaps he did, but he looked
sheepish when little bit of player beat
him running and put him out.
The greatest mix up of the afternoon
was in the fifth inning. The CALIFORNIA;
were at the bat. McCord was on first try
ing to steal second. Mccarthy threw the
ball to Corbett in hot style. The cham
pion was bus1ly trying to think whether it
would be better to let the ball pass or to
try and catch it. In the meantime McCord
played for safety. Unfortunately Corbett
was between him and the base and he had
no time to calculate what would be the
consequent ceS.
The crash came. Talk about the hip
lock Sharkey got on Sullivan's conqueror,
it was nothing like the collision brought
about by McCord. Big Jim's legs flew
from under him and with half hand
spring he flew through the air, landing on
a soft spot, for McCord was underneath.
Poor McCord 1t will be long time be-
fore he will forget the weight of the 190-
pound champion on his backbone.

DID NOT MAKE A RUN.

The CALIFORNIA; Badly Beaten by
the Pacifics at Preside Park.
The fact that James ]. Corbett played
first base for the Pacifics against the Cali
fornias brought out a couple OF thousand
people to witness the game at the Preside
Athletic grounds yesterday afternoon.
To the baseball devotee there was little
of interest in the game, but it must be I'M
derstood that the engaging of the cham
pion pugilist to play bali was not intended
to bring out baseball cranks but rather
their fellow-wheelsmen and women daft
on pucilistic hero-worship.
There were by far more ladies than gen.
tlemen in attendance, and the small OBJ
tr usive boy outnum bered both.
Whether it was that the champion pu-
gilist was in the nine pitted against them,
and that they were ewed by his presence,
the CALIFORNIA; played execrabIe ball.
Klopf, the pitcher, did we'll or rather as
well as could be expected against fairly
strong battery and dastardly support.
His outfield muffed aud fun bled to the
evident delight of the crowd that seem ed
to delight in the errors. Buckley, in CEN
terfield vas the only other redeeming
feature of the nine.
The CALIFORNIA; made goose egg in the
way of scores and sixteen errors.
The Pacifics made eight runs and only
four errors. The score:

left and Hanley got life on Iberg's error,
Zann going 10 second. Tillson then forced
Zann at third, but gained first on the
play. Doyle, Scott and big Belr' Brown
followed with a single each scoring Han
ley, Tillson and Doyle. Delmas retired
the side by striking out.
In their half of the first the local men
made two runs on errors by Doyle and
Tillson, Krug out and Umpire Sharkey' s
skillful stop of the ball thrown by Pitcher
DovIe.
In the second, Oakland gathered in two
more runs on base on balls, two errors
and one hit. At this point it looked as
though it was going to be an amateurish
sort of game. in which errors would be the
principal factors. Everybody was agreea-
bly, surprised, however, for the two teams
now got down to hard work and but two
runs were made during the rest of the
afternoon.
The home team got one man around the
bases in the fourth. Murphy was hit by a
pitched ball and scored on singles by
SWEET and Iberg. The visitors scored their
other run in the eighth on Mccarthy
single, two sacrifice hits and Smiths err
ror.
Delmas, the Oakland right fielder, dis
tinguished himself by two splendid run
ming catches of what looked like safe hits.

"It's mighty hard lines the good, old
honest game of baseball has fallen into
when the people have to be iollied into
coming to see it by exhibiting pugilist
as the star attraction" said disgruntled
enthusiast yesterday.
"Coroetr's pretty good ballpIayer, but
he's a much better boxer and baseball
isn't in his class.
"But Sharkeyl Well, he knows as
much about umpiring game as | know
about pugilism, and that's nothing. He
was as much use in the Folsom-street
game yesterday as a second tail would be
to dog. He didn't know enough to keep
out of the way of the ball."
Although the disgruntled individual did
not use the choicest of English he voiced
the sentiment of almost every lover of the
National game who witnessed either of
yesterday contests. 1t is to be regretted
that the managers of the sport which has
for years been above reproach in every re-
spect, should see fit, for an ephemeral adj
Vantage 10 ally it with business that is
outlawed in almost every State in the
Union.
Mr.. Sharkey would doubtless shine as an
umpire in such game as that at Louis
vile, KY, one day last week, when several
of the players assaulted the deciding Of
6cer. Mr.. Corbett might likewise be
star of the first magnitude in team
composed of such pugnacious players, but
here, where baseball is conducted as it
should be, there is hardly need of the ser
vice of either of the illustrous gentlemen.

Thomas Sharkey, in a Respondent suit
of pearIgray, an Immaculate shirt front
bedecked with diamonds, was kept busy
yesterday afternoon lodging baseballs
while he umpired a game at the new ball
grounds on Folsom street.
His new calling, coming so fast on the
heels of his debut last Friday night as an
actor, left him in a quasi-muddled mental
condition worse than when jim Corbett
raised ''mouse" over his right eye In
their memorable four-round ego" at the
Pavilion.
He did not care to discuss pugilism to
any great extent when seen last evening,
excepting to reiterate that he was not go
ing to click" anybody for six months ex-
cepting Jim Corbett, and if the latter
gentleman did not mind his p's and as he
might not stand his abuse that long.
1t is evident in many ways that Sharkey
is not yet fulI-fledged prize-fighter. He
does not yet grasp the idea that the deans
of the pugilistic faculties must not neces-
sarily restrict their qualifications to
humping an opponent into insenslbil1ty.
He does not know that the best OF his
class must learn to not get angry when
called ''liar," "cur," pup" dub" and
the like. Instead, the greatest generals in
"pugdom" have for many decades not only
fought with their fists, but stood abuse,
and showed their superiority by winding
all corners with hot. scorching words.
Jim Corbett, on the other hand, knows
more than Sharkey. He has had few
years standing the abuse of John L. Sull1-
van and Charley Mitchell, both of whom
he severely punished when he got them In
24-toot ring for using his name in vain.
He has likewise had TO stand the abuse of
"Lanky Bob" Fitzsimm mons, whom he has
chased away into England and whom he
hopes to some day catch and spank. So
he knows something about these little
amenities of the squared ring.
Yesterday he laughed right heartily
when informed of what Sharkey was say
ing about him. 1t is not laughing mat
ter either; for Sharkey has declared if
Corbett calls him dub" again, or any
other such name, he will seek him in the
seclusion of his apartment at the st.
Nicholas and administer to him such a
physical chastisement as he deems will fit
the alleged insult.
"Sharkey's crazy be said. He won't
do anything of the kind. called him a
dub and he is a dub l will prove him
he's a dub the next time we meet in the
ring"
In the meantime Corbett will leave here
tomorrow for Bartlett Springs with his
mother, sister and wife, The stay there
will not be less than two weeks, after
which he will return and leave for AS
bury Park, his regular training quarters.

OAKLAND WON EASILY.
The Local Men Could Do Nothing
With Doyle's Delivery.

The California Baseball League opened
its season of '96 most anspiciously. There
was a big crowd in attendance at the new
grounds, Sixteenth and Folsom streets,
and every one present went away delighted
with the game that was played. After the
first TWO innings it was as pretty a contest
as one would care to see. Both pitchers
were very effective and the fielding OF all
the players, with the single exception of
King, was above the average.
Pitcher Iberg of the San Franciscos was
bit nervous at the beginning, but soon
steadied down, and during the last seven
innings allowed the opposing batsmen but
five scattered hits. Doyle of the Oaklands,
however, saw Iberg's game and went him
few notches better. The San Franciscos
were able to Gull but five safe hits off his
delivery during the entire game.
Oakland was first at the bat and at the
outset gained a lead of three rms. After
Leonard had been retired, Gam singled to

DROWNED IN THE BAY.
Fred Western Fell From the Schoone
Columbus to His Death.

AS Fred Western, sailor, was repairing
the bowsprit of the scow-schooner Column
bus, anchored off Black Point yesterday
morning, he missed his footing and fell
into the bay. A strong tide was running
and as Western was unable to swim he
was soon carried quite distance from the
schooner.
He called for help and Captain George
Fender, who was below at the time of the
accident, hearing the shouts, rushed on
deck and threw a life preserver to the
drowning man. Western, however, had
become exhausted through his struggles
in the water, and just as he was about to
grasp the life-buoy he collapsed and sank.
The captain in the meantime had pro-
cured boat and a grappling-iron, but his
efforts to save the unfortunate seaman
were without avail.
The case was reported to the Coroner
Office last evening by Captain Roberts, who
will take charge of the body in case 1t is
recovered.

witness is his stepdaughter, Minnie Tilton, 16
years of age Warner gives the charge an
emphatic denial and says it has been actuated
