WHATEVER may be alleged with regard to any other territorial in stitution we are prepared to say that the administration of the affairs of the Territorial Prison has been most excellent. From the highest to the lowest each official and attache has united in the common effort to administer its affairs in a clean and business like manner. The result has been economy without penuriousness and an annual saving to the Ter ritory of many thousands of dol lars. To a man up the tree It it seems that Governor Franklin had better let well enough alone.

Great enthusiasm prevails among the
Endeavorers as the time for choosing the
'97 convention approaches. They say that
if the people of the State will do their
part in the effort that the '97 convention
will come here. The Endeavorers want to

convention here. To assist in accomplish

HAMLIN A SPEEDY RIDER.
Makes Best Time and Passes
Nineteen Men in the
Road Clubs Race.
Kroetz Wins the Olympic Wheel
mems Event and Wing Gets
Time Prize.

Yesterd ay was an ideal day for wheeling
in the country. In the City it was cold
and windy, but in San Mateo County and
across the bay, where most of the riders
went, the weather was all that could be
desired, though the roads are somewhat
dusty at this season.
This is the time of year when the club
cyclers delight in road races, and every
Sunday sees several of these events held,
either on the Havwards road or over the
stretch between San Mateo and San Carlos
There were three such races last Sunday
and three more yesterday, those of the
Bay City, San Francisco and Olympic
wheelmen.
The two irst-named clubs held theirs
across the bay, while the Olvmpics went
to San Mateo, partly as a compliment to
President Eaton, who resides there, and
partly because they thought the ROAD
would be better than the Haywards course.
In the latter they were disappointed. as
the road to San Carlos is dusty and un-
even, though not much more can be said
OF the road over the bay.
The Olympics' race was started promptly
at noon, and the men made very good
time, everything considered. There were
no accidents, save to Hadenfeldt, who
punctured a tire and fell back to last
place Kroetz rode a good race, finishing
first and making second best time. j. f..
Wing made the fastest time, 1905 Ram

WHICH SIDE WILL WIN 2
Trial of the Nevada Bank For
gers to Be Commenced
To-Day.
Dean and Wife and Joe McCloskev
Arrayed Against Becker and
Wife and Cregan.

The long drawn-out preliminaries for
the legal battle between the police and
the prince of forgers closed yesterday, as
Judge Wallace will commence hearing the
case to-day.
Becker and Cregan, soon after their ar
rival at the City Prison, engaged Attor-
neys McPike and Dunno to look after their
interests. They have been materially as
sisted by Mrs. Becker, who has for weeks
been in daily communication with them
and her husband and Cregan.
What the defense will be has not devel-
oped, although 1t is generally understood
it will be denial that either Becker or
Cregan were here when A. H. Dean forged
the $22, 900 draft on the Nevada bank last
December.
The appearance within the past few days
OF Joe M cCloskey and Deans wife has
caused CONSERVATION in the Becker and
Cregan ranks. McCloskey was acquitted
on Deans confession and a few days later
went East. Now he has returned and will,
it is supposed, appear as a witness for the
prosecution.
Captain Lees and Detective Seymour
have been working assiduously on the case
for weeks past and are ready for the trial
to-day. Like the defendants they are
keeping their mouths shut and will not
leave themselves open to attack by the
other side. 1t is understood they have a
strong case.
The battle is won, so far as the principals
are concerned. On the one side are Becker
and his wife and Cregan and on the other
side Dean and his wife and McCloskey.
Which side will win will be known in a
few days. The general expectation is that
Dean, at any rate, will be either acquitted
or get off with light sentence for his
services to the prosecution.

HANDBALL GAMES.
Union Court Opened Under New Man
demonstrating Events at the
San Fran cisco Court.


Both handb bail courts had full compile
ment of spectators yesterday and no lack
of players. At the San Francisco court P
Ryan, the proprietor, kept up his record
by playing in three matches in succession,
showing his wonderful endurance. The
events of the day were two mixed-up
games in which P. T. Donnelly, the
amateur champion, r. Lehman, ]. Har-
low, the ex-coast champion, and ]. ].
Feeney participated. In the first Dom
nelly and Lenihan defeated Harlow and
Feeney, and then Lehman and Feeney de-
feated Donnelly ard Harlow. Both games
were closely contested.
The Union court has passed into new
hands. Billy McManus, the former pro-
Terry McManus and w. Doran, and the
court was opened yesterday under the
new management. Terry is the champion
heavy weight and as both the proprietors
are energetic and popular young men and
are determined to further the interests of
handball in every possible way their sue
cess should be assured. There was a large
number of their friends present in the
court yesterday and several interesting
games were played. The event of the day
was a game between r. Lehman and ].
Nelson ana j. j. Feeney and Terry Nc
Manus. After each side had won two
games it was decided to postpone the
final till Saturday next.
Following were the games played in the
courts:
