Track and Paddock Items,

The combination book was hard hit on
the day, losing over $500. Henry
Hart sheet-writer for the held book,
cashed one ticket calling for $780, starting
with Unity and ending UP with Santiago.
Ten dollars was the amount invested.
The California Jockey Club evidently
feel a tride nettled over the reflections cast
upon the club by Owner Green B. Morris,
for at a meeting held by the board of stew
ards yesterday they decided that no more
entries would be received from Mn Morris
in purse races. This action is considered
far-fetched by many horsemen, from the
TACT that the veteran turGman informed
the club the day previous that he would
run no more of his horses at the track in
overnight events.

nardo, backing the brown gelding in nearly
all OF the books. 1t was Charley Billiards.

thinks that had the gelding not bled the
purse would have been his.
Riley Grammar backed Heartsease to win
the mile run. She doomed up very dan
gerous for portion of the route, but tired
badly in the stretch.
Polaskl lost considerable ground by be-
ing knocked about soon after the flag fell
HIS showing, however, was a remarkably
credita bic one.
Both Ed Purser, the owner OF Perseus,
and Trainer Billy hurry played Unity
TO pull off the first race. They underesti-
mated the condition of the son of imp.
King Gallop, for he was beaten but nose
IN hard drive. He showed considerable
class IN his Eastern races and will bear
watching in his future runs.
A big plunge was made on the Austral-
lan-bred mare Utter, owned by the Merri-
wa stable, her odds being forced down
from 80 10 and to 1. She made a fair
showing, but got no portion OF the purse.

BRODER|CK UNDER FIRE,
Supervisors Will Investigate His
Office Expenses Next
Week.
The Auditor Is Ready for Examination
and Threatens to Paralyze
City Business.

Auditor Broderick gave the Finance
Committee of the Board of Supervisors
notice yesterday that unless the salary
warrants of the clerks in his office be
passed by Monday next he viii dismiss
them and conduct his office with the one
clerk allowed by law, whose warrant is not
subject to the inspection of the committee.
This brought out the statement from
Chairman Taylor that it was the intention
of the committee to investigate the Aud
itor's office and ascertain whether the
clerks employed there were necessary and
the salaries commensurate with the du-
ties performed. The matter was discussed
before the Auditor arrived and Mr. Taylor
expressed the opinion that clerks could be
hired Tor much less money than the Aud
itor was paying.
Supervisor Benjamin said that he was
not in favor OF interfering with the matter,
as the Auditor proba bly, knew what he was
doing when he engaged his help.
When Mr. Broderlck put in an appear
ance, at the request of The committee,
Chairman Taylor said that as the Auditor
had been giving them SO much advice on
the law he thought it was time some of
the authorities were cited. Mr.. Broderick
answered with some spirit that he was
merely following the law as it had been
interpreted to him by his attorney, and
that he would continue to do so.
Mr.. Benjamin asked what would happen
if his clerks were laid off and the work
done by the Auditor and his deputy.
you would simply have to wait about
three months for things that you now get
in three days" said Broderick
The Auditor went on to explain the ne
cessity of every clerk now employed in his
office and the amount of work required of
each. He SAID he was getting along with
from one to three clerks less than any OF
his predecessors.
In spite of the showing made Mr..
Taylor remarked that the com mittee could
not afford to treat his office differently from
other departments ut the municipal gov
eminent, and that the warrants could not
be passed.
"All right, let it go at that" said the
Auditor, "but there will be no clerks in
my Office Tuesday next if these warrants
are not passed. | shall not ask nv men
to work for nothing
1t was decided that the investigation of
the Auditors department should take
place some time during next week, and it
was intimated that other Offices might
also be inquired into.
This seemed to please Mr.. Broderlck
very much and he said as parting shot:
Cali right, come any time and stay as
long as you like. You Will not find an
i'd man or one who does not earn his
money in my office. and | think YOU will
in others where you do not expect it.
investigations are good things and you
can't have too many or too sweeping ones
TO suit me"

choice. was in front for furlong when
Louis Ezell's Unity showed in front, and in
drive through the stretch with Perseus
won at the wire by nose. The winner
was at one time as good as II to 1 in the
betting, closing at sevens.
Ten starters in the seven furlong run,
with light welterweights up, furnished a
fair betting contest. Again did Barney
Schrieber furnish favorite-his colt Pear
son closing ~ 10 l favorite. Warren
and Bernardo both closed at threeS for sec
ond place honors The favorite was in
front until within a sixteenth from the
wire, when Morvcn came along on the
outside and won easily by length. Billy
McCloskey took the place by a head in a
drive from Crawford.
There were but four starters in the mile
and a quarter handicap, two of them
Claudius and Sir Walter-carrying the
Elmwood stock farm colors. Two TO five
was laid against the stable, with q. B.
Morris a fairly well backed second choice.
Del Norte did not command much back
ing, not having been out in some time.
Morris went out in front at tiag-fall
with Sir Walter, keeping him close COM
pany. He held his lead until well on
toward the finishing post, and it looked at
one time as though he would prove the
winner. ClaudiuS responded to Doggett s
urging the last furl0ng and won at the
wire by half a length. Sir Walter, who
had but feather on his back, was close
third.
Opening at 8 to for the mile dash, San
tiago receded in the betting to twos, and
after looking beaten at one stage OF the
running, went around bis field on the far
turn and won, eased up from Polaski by
two lengths. Heartsease, who made a
creditable showing finished third.

VICTORIA, B. c., May 81. Through.
out the sorrowful and sultry night and
far into the morning thousands of
anxious watchers surged about the
approaches to Point Ellice bridge, the
scene Of yesterdays disaster. AS body
after body was brought to land and
tenderly laid upon an improvised bier,
the eager crowd would crush about the
remains, hoping yet fearing, until a
shrek or sob would announce that q
dear one had been recognized and the
name OF another identified victim
was placed upon the bulletin board
and flashed by wire to sorrowing
friends. When the Glst corpse had
been brought to the surface, the
rescuers announced they could find no
more bodies under the wreclSage
Still nearly 80 people arc missing,
whose fate may not be known for
days 1t is possible that many bodies
were carried out by tho strong tide.
The arm of the bay spanned by the
broken bridge will be carefully
dragged to-day and by evening the
full extent of the disaster will be
known. 1t is now conjectured that
nearly 200 people were carried down
with the defective structure and that
less than half of them survive.

SAN JOSE, CAL, May 27.-About mid
night last night a neighbor named
Page heard the report of shots in the
direction of the home of Col T. P. Nc
Glincy, one Of California's commits
sioners of the worlds fair, and almost
Immediately thereafter there came
the sound of galloping hoofs on
the county road. Hurriedly dress
ing, Page ran to the house and found
the body Of McGlincy lying in an
clubhouse in pool of blood. Entering
the house he found the bodies of James.
Well, son of Mrs McGlincy by a
former marriage, who had been shot,
and Mrs. McGlincy and her daughter,
Mrs, James Dunham, who had been
stabbed to death by the assassin, and
the hired man, James Briscoe, and the
servant, Minnie Schesler, who had been
hacked to death with Ratchet The
rooms where the bodies lay were be-
spattered with blood and there was
every evidence to show that the dead
had made desperate struggle for
their lives. James Dunham, husband
of one of the victims and son-in-law Of
the McGlincys, was undoubtedly the
murderer. When last seen he was rid
ing rapidly away on horseback. Fam
lily trou bles are said to have caused the
murders. The only being in the house
who escaped alive was II baby one
month old, the child of Mrs. Dunham
and the murderer.

aged 90, into insensibility as she lay
in bed at her home, l2Os South Fiftieth

rescued the mother and child with
difficulty. They were taken to hos
pital where it was found that in addi-
tion to being burned Mrs Sanborne's
skull was fractured in two places The
infant was also badly burned and 1t is
