CLUB ATHLETES
They Will Not Compete in the
Annual Championship
Games.
Captain Gill Is Surprised That, the
Pacific Athletic Association Failed
to Notify Him.

1.-THE Olympic Club will not enter team
to compete in the so-called championship
meeting on May 2 at Central Park" said
Leonard Gill, the captain of the Olympic
athletes, last evening.
II will tell you all about this affair in
very few words" continued Mr.. Gill, who
looked somewhat puzzled at the action of
the Pacific Athletic Association in not
having notified him of such meeting.
1.-The annual championship games are
held either in this City at the Olympic
grounds or in Sacramento on Nav 30 The
athletes of this club have always looked
forward with much interest to these games,
and it is hardly necessary for me to re-
mark that they were taken by surprise when
they read recently In the Examiner that
the contests would be held this year ct
Central Park on Nav 2 l was asked for
an explanation by the club mem bers, but
not having any notification from the Pa
ciic Athletic Association | could not ad-
vance an intelligent reply.
"a few days ago / was approached by a
representative of the Examiner who asked
me if | would help the cause along by en-
tering team to compete against the ath-
letes of the Stanford and Berkeley univer-
tleman that l would gladly lend all
the assistance in my power in the interest
of general athletics, but that as the time
was too short for our boys to train for
meeting of this kind I could not agree to
the proposition. informed him that the
athletes of the Olympic Club were not in
condition to enter into contests of any
kind at present, and that had more than
passing interest in the success of our
boys when they met in competition the
athletes of other clubs.
Jh"He then replied that if the Olympic Club
would join in and make the day para
mount success by entering a team in the
games, the Examiner would handsomely
appreciate and return the kindness ex-
tended at some future time. l thanked
the gentleman, but you know the Olympic
Club feels proud of its athletes and would
certainly call me to task if / insisted upon
them taking part in contests they would
not stand ghost of a chance of winning
II certainly will do all in my power to
assist the press in every way, but under
the present circumstances, considering the
limited time our athletes would be given
to train for those games, could not give
the representative of the Examiner an
answer in the affirmative. If the games
were postponed to May 80, 1 can assure
you that the Olympic Club would have
a strong team to pit against the crack
athletes of the universities"
Mr.. Gill cannot understand why the
Pacific Amateur Athletic Association
failed to notify him that the champion
ships are to be held at Central Park on
May2 Certainly the Olympic Club should
have some voice in the matter, and it is

FOR LIBERTY OF CONSCIENCE.

Resolutions by the American Women's
League of San Francisco.
The following resolutions and preamble
have been adopted by the American
Women's Liberal League of San Francisco: :
WHEREAS, Liberty of conscience is sacred
right guaranteed TO all citizens by the constitu-
ton and laws of the United States and the State
OF California; and whereas, the said constitu,
tlOn and laws enact that no religious test shall
ever be required as qualification to office or
public trust; and whereas, the experience of
over hundred years demonstrates that the
religious liberty thus guaranteed the citizens
of this Republic is the corner stone of our glo-
rious civilization and of our unparalleled pros
perity. Therefore, be it

THE ACTORS FUND ROBBED
More Charges Against w. C.
Dudley, the Missing Seo-
retary of the Elks.
A Warrant Has Been Sworn Out for
His Arrest On the Charge of
Embezzlement.

The San Francisco Lodge of Actors of
the Association of America have sworn
out warrant for the arrest of w. c. Dud-
ley, the defaulting secretary of Golden
Gate Lodge of Elks, charging him with
having absconded with about $67S, the net
proceeds of the benefit given last July to
Lodge No. 2 of the Actors Association, of
which George Osborn is president and
e. j. Holden yice-president.
The affair was handled by w. c. Dudley,
Fred ]. Butler nd b. Coulter Brinker.
After the expenses were paid $673 were
paid over to Dudley with instructions to
place the money in the German Bank to
the credit of the organization. The other
two trustees had perfect confidence in
Dudley's honesty and no examination of
the actors accounts was made. The re-
cent Elk defalcations caused them to in
vestigate and they declare now that they
learned that Dudley had drawn ali

Attorney T. l. Bergin Begins
an Action to Recover
$4,000.
Claims That the Coin Was Advanced

Attorney Bergin seems to think it is, for

money.
On April 16 Attorney T. I. Bergin filed

presumed that the papers have not yet

a communi cation from Chairman Caldwell
of the Western Passenger Association
yesterday requesting the vote of the
Southern Pacific on number of propo-
sitions for reduced fares to the places of
various conventions in the East to be held
within the next few months.
In each case the proposition was to
make the price of a round trip limited

returned giving the consent of the South
ern Pacific Company to each proposition,

Hardware in Less Than Carload
Lots Shows an Advance of
100 Per Cent.
IRON THE LEAST AFFECTED
It Is Expected That the Date for
Making Effective the New Rates
Will Be Fixed To-Day.

Every importer on the Pacific Coast has
been on the anxious seat since it was an
nounced that the new westbound commo-
dity tariff schedule adopted at the recent
meeting of the Transcontinental Freight
rate Committee at Milwaukee meant a de-
cided advance in rates. This tariff is the
most important one in its effect on the traf-
fic that comes into this section of the coun-
try, as nearly so per cent of all goods inn
ported is moved under the commodity
tariff, class rates cutting but small figure
In this branch of commerce.
1t was known that these rates had been
received by the railroad people, but they
have hitherto refused to make them public
as whole, though accommodating indi-
vidual shippers by informing them in
reference to any particular commodity.
The CALL has already given the newly
adopted class rates, which are now the
same for both east and west bound busi-
ness. 1t has also given the revised east
bound rates on the most important COM
modities. and now herewith gives list of
the most important revised westbound
commodity rates. with a comparison of
the rates now in force.
The date when these new rates will be-

TranscontinentalT Traffic Asso citation which
is in session at Chicago.
All the rates given herewith are to Cali
fornia terminal points and are given in
cents per 100 pounds. Where carload lots
are not specified the rate is for less than
carload lots.
1T will be noticed that comparisons are
made only for four territories. This is due
to the fact that two new territories were
cyeated by the recently organized Trans
continental Traffic Association-that is,
the Pittsburg and Cincinnati territories
and hence no comparison with the pro-
posed rates to these sections was possible.
For brevity's sake the following abbre-

VISITING HOTEL MEN.

About 400 of Them Are Expected to
Arrive in the City This Afternoon.
Manager J. G.. Kirkpatrick of the Palace
Hotel returned yesterday from Southern
California, where he has been for over a
week past with the hotel men of the Ma
tional Association, who are to reach here
to-day.
Mr.. kirkpatrick says the hotel men have
enjoyed themselves in a splendid way
ever since they crossed into California,
ceived royalty, presented with wines,
fruits and flowers, banqueted and shown
the sights.
81 meet them at Barstow," said Mr..
Kirkpatrick, and went with them to Los
Angeles, Pasadena, San Diego, Coronado,
Santa Monica and other places. The
banquet at Coronado was attended by. 427
people.
There are great many big hotel men
in the party. The cities outside of New
York are especially well represented and
New York. of course, has a good quota.
The first detachment of the hotel men will
arrive here about l P. NJ. tomorrow and
the others will follow shortly afterward.
There will be about 400 people in the party.
''The first train will have about seventy
people from New York, the second will
have 140 from Chicago and the third 120
from New England. Delegates from Colo
rado, Indiana and Ohio will arrive in
special cars probably in the meantime.
The tourists will visit the theaters and
Chinatown in the evening. A luncheon
at the Cliff House will be given on Friday
and that evening there will be a banquet
at the Palace. On Saturday they will go
to Palo Alto, San Jose and Monterey and
will spend Sunday at the latter place."

Frank Brown, a Horse-Trainer,
Has a Row With Watch.
man Moore.
a WOMAN WAS IN THE CASE.
Brown Fires Two Shots at Moore and
Moore Retaliates With
Slungshot.

There was a sensational scene in the
Baldwin Hotel at an early hour yesterday,
the sharp report of a pistol rousing the
guests from their slumbers.
The row was between Frank Brown, a
horse-trainer, and Charles Moore, the
night watchman. There was a woman in
the case, and Moore accused Brown of un-
seemly conduct with her in the early hours
OF the morning.
The story is that Moore went to Brown
ana ordered him and his companion to
leave the hotel.
Hot words passed between Brown and
Moore and, according To the version of the
affair told yesterday, Brown pulled re-
volver and fired two shots at the watch
man, but his hand was unsteady and both
shots missed. Then, it is said, Moore
pulled slungshot from his pocket and
attacked Brown furiously with it before he
had time to fire another shot.
The woman's screams and the report of
the shots aroused the guests and made the
night clerk and other attaches rush to the
floor where Browns room was situated.
They were just in time to pull the two
men apart.
Tod Sloan, the weIl-known Jockey, and
two or three other friends of Brown got
him out of the hotel and took him in
hack to the Receiving Hospital about 8
o'clock in the morning, where DR.. Bunne1
sewed and dressed a deep wound in his
scalp.
Brown and his friends declined to give
any information as to how he received his
wound, putting off all inquiries by the re-
mark that it was only saloon row.
Moore has lost his position as watchman
in the hotel through the fraces, but his
friends hope that he will be reinstated, as
he was, they claim. simply doing his duty
by ordering the woman out of the hotel,
and that he had a right to defend himself
against Browns attempt upon his life.
Moore is an ex-policeman.
There has been q strong effort on the
part of the hotel people and Browns
friends to hush the matter up, but it
leaked out last night.
