SAN RANCISCO. Cal, October 9-George
Green young CorbetU of San Francisco
and Tom Tracey of Australia met in a ten
round contest last night before the Occi-
dental Club. Green was given the decision
by Referee Young" Mitchell. the retired
lightweight champion.
The fight was the best seen in San Fran
cisco in long time. Green assumed the
aggressive at the call Of time, and made
the pace in nearly every round. In the
fourth he knocked Tracey down twice, hav-
ing him almost out.
In the sixth Tracey was again almost
out. but by clinching and hanging to Green
stayed the round out Green was tired in
although he landed repeatedly OH Tracey's
face with left and over the heart with the
right. In the eighth Green again put Ira
cey the floor for five seconds. At the
call of time in the ninth round Tracey went
at Green with rush. planting hard rights
over the kidneys and left swings in the
face. Green soon tired clinching at the end
of the round.
beginning Of the tenth round was the
fresher Of the two. He went at Green and
fought flercely, but Green came back with
as many blows as he received though lack
iEg steam Tracey displayed the better
ring generalship and saved himself several
times by hanging onto Green when almost
out. His methods were not as clean as
Green's He persisted in striking Green
when in clinch, though warned by the
referee several times. Green showed to
much better advantage than in any pre-
vious contest His tactics were clean and
his cleverness Of a high order. Tracey was
the fresher at the finish, and had the con-
test lasted two rounds more the result
might have been different.

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

The final game Of the Temple cup series
at Cleveland, Ohio, yesterday may we'll go
On record as the hardest fought contest
ever played on any diamond, despite the
fact that the score was not as close as It
might have been. That Baltimore got 80
much the better of the run-n1aking was en-
tirely due to the fact that Corbett was too
much for Cleveland for in fielding the game
was magnificent on both sides and honOrs
were easy. Cuppy pitched a strong game,
but toward the end hits were punched on
him and Baltimore earned the victory well.
Up to the seventh inning hits were scarce
and scattered, but then a two-bagger fol-
lowed by a single and Cleveland's only
error gave two runs. and the Spiders hearts
were broken. There was no quitting. how
ever, and the runs in the eighth were cam
ed by hard batting.
The game was full of ginger, and there
was considerable wrangling, every point
teing fought out to a finish. Emslfe and
Sheridan did excellent work, however, only
one decision being questioned that when
Childs was called out stealing second in the
fifth.
Corbett not only held the Spiders down
to four singles, but he struck out six men
and was so steady that in his only bad box
he got away from trouble after men were
on second and third with nobody out. This

IT Il IMdeed q DaFR MyBteFy.
From the London Truth.
What is the reason for the extraordinary
variations in the price charged for the
same drug by different druggists? I have
recently been compelled. for my sins to
have prescription made up at three diff
ferent chemists. The first was the Army
and Navy store, where the price was 1Od.
The second was at the seaside, where the
price was Is. Sd. The third was in another
country town, where the price was Is. Sd.
There is. therefore, a difference of so per
cent between the stores price and the sea-
side price. AM a difference of 40 per cent
between the former and the country chem
lists price. I doubt whether a similar dis
crepancy could be found in any other
branch Of retail! trade, and why should il
be so in the chemists?

present EXCOngressman Forman. the po-

made n strong protesting speech against
the bolting idea, which originated with the
Cook counts faction. and urged that the
radical political step be deferred until
after the Peoria state and Chicago na-
tional con, entions of the party have pass
ed into history. 1t was practically agreed
to send a contesting delegation TO Chicago
in July so as to be prepared to have them
seated if the majority in the convention is
favorable.
Speaking for the gold demands of Illinois
and placing patriotism before party.in their
estimation, the conferees agreed that if the
republican platform declares for gold and
the democratic platform for silver, the gold
democrats will vote for tho republican
ticket.

The news that Senator Matt Quay has

of the anti-McKinley delegation which
win so to St. Louis from this state in the
hope Of downing the Ohio man.
Senator Quay has not Withdrawn his

his figures on the result publicity. These
figures have been received in Atlanta

credits Mckinley with nine votes from
Georgia, whereas he already has four

winning eight contesting delegates. OF
the eight contesting delegates six are al
most certain for Mckinley. which would
give him twenty instead of nine.
