aQd the majority report which, ben Z
favorable, was held back, was demanded
by the house and created a division, III
which the Kyle men and democrats vO-
ted with the republicans IN requiring

This was taken AS an indication that
Their. is a split in the fusion ranks and
the republicans are jubiIant. Inc anti
KYLE men are bitter against the Kyle
men aud democrats for voting with the
republicans, alleging that the Kyle men
are against Dowdell because they think
him favorable to some other senatorial!
candidate. Kyle men claim they are
opposing Dowdel! because OF lack OF
merit in his case. Both the Kyle men
and the democrats disavow any intention
to cause IA break among the ~fusion,sts.
Probably wiser counsel will prevail and
the deeper feeling disappear later.

tifully. William Halpin, the Oldest
Trojan OF them all, acted al slip steward
and J. Sheehan as flag steward. The field
stewards were T. j. McHugh, c. c. Gr1s-
wold and James Wen.
The slight rain that fell during the
meeting seemed 10 put life into the dogs
and hares and the running was conse-
quently first class. The winning dogs did
justice TO themselves and their success
was due principally to the very excellent
form they were in when they were turned
over in charge of the slipper.
In the champion stake Moondyne de-
feaed Fireball and Firm Friend defeated
Pretender in the first ties, and in the final
Moondyne won first money after Cruel
ing race from end to end of the field
In the puppy stake Nelly B defeated
Gallant Foe anu Jester defeated Douglass,
and in the final run Jester captured first
honors.
Some frst-class running resulted when
the old dogs met on the green sward to
test speed and endurance. Daisy Crest
beat Queen A, Eclipse beat Gashght,

pocketed first money and also the credit
OF being owner of first-class grey yhound.
The ladies and gentlemen present en-
ioyed grand days sport and retired from

that coursing, when properly conducted
is as good sport as any Terson fond O: tie Id
pastimes could desire. To-day there will
be 42-dcg sweepstake run and doubt
less large gathering will witness it.

Gambling-HOuSe Where
Only the Fair Sex is
Admitted.
Is Conducted by Two Widows
and Patronized by Leaders
in Society.
Lovo to Woo Dame Fortunes
Smiles.

PORTLAND, Or, June 19-PortIand
has a gam bling-house owned by women,
operated by women and patroniEed by
women. That is the chance discovery
made by Detective Welsh while he was
engaged upon a recent case. This gam
bling house, says the detective. is in one
OF the finest buildings in the heart of the
city, ana no one unless possessing the se-
cret would suspect that such a place
existed.
The establishment consists of four
rooms, in one of which faro is dealt by a
female dealer, and stud poker also holds
forth. The second is for short cards, the
third is a refreshment room with bar as
elegantly fitted up as the most fastidious
would cIre TO patronize, and the last
apartment is dressing-room, presided
over by discreet negress as black as a coal
pit. The gam bling-house says Welsh, is
conducted by TWO grass widows" bearing
excellent regulations among many of
their acQuaintances, who are ignorant of
this novel enterprise into which they
launched the latter part of last month.
The rooms are fitted up in a style bor-
dering upon princely luxury, and must
have cost handsome dot 1t appears to
be a good investment for the two widows
and a certain elderly capitals: who
"staked" them TO the greater part of the
money expended upon the novel project.
Welsh ascertaIned that the two widows
have an extensive acquaintance with
good class of society women who are pos
sessed of means, or who have access TO
the bank accounts of their male reIa-
tives.
There were, perhaps, a dozen who had
desire 10 gam bic as men do. To these
could easily be broached the scheme,
which so far has proved a success. They
encouraged it by the promise of securing
the patronage of other women similarly
inclined.
The games run full blast from to
o'clock every afternoon excepting on Sun
days, and so far the owners have won
more than the original cost Of fitting up
their luxurious apartments.
They have no need of personally adver-
tising their scheme now, as their patrons
do that for them, whether they lose or
win. They claim that none but women
enjoy ing good repute are admitted to
their bling hall by means or a card OF
introduction. AS soon as their resort
gains any notoriety they will close its
dOOrs

Pitcher Hughes Carries Off the Lions
Share Of tbs Days
Homo; S.

Nine stalwart young men came down
from Sacramento yesterday and pro-
cee6ed 10 do funny things to San Fran
cisco's pet aggregation of ball-tossers,
There were all sorts of weather during the
afternoon, including a very little good
baseball weather, but the lowering clouds
effectively kept a large portion of the
crowd which might otherwise have been
expected away.
If rainy weather is not just the kind of
weather to make the Sacramento boys
play ball they must be a very tropicaIHset
OF young men when they do have things
10 suit. In spite of slippery ball and a
game which was theirs in walk, the
visitors put up n game that set all the
cranks talking OF old times.
The Gilt Edge pitcher, Hughes, was par
tlcularly strong and his record of a run
every time he faced the Violet pitcher j.
something to brag about. Hughes had
three hits to his credit. two doubles and
one good for the entire circuit. His field
ing record was nine men struck out, six
put-outs, three assists and a clean error
column. Henesey, the elongated first
oaseman, got nearly as much credit out OF
the game, and none OF the nine played
ball 10 be ashamed of.
The Nlolets put IN q steady game and
their errors were not numerous consider
ing the mum ber of times the ball was hit.
The Sacramento boys touched up FitZ-
patrick ratherly warm y, and that was the
main reason for the magnificent proper
tions of the Gilt E lge score This Is the
way the Violets met their Waterloo:

Santa rosa, Indoor Pionio.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, June 19.-The
people in this section from Iowa, Illinois
and Wisconsin decided some time ago
that they would hold basket picnic and
reunion at McDonald's park in this city
on Saturday, June 10.
They began to gather at the park early
this forenoon, and gray sky and south
erly wind deferred not one Hawkeye,
Badger nor Sucker from being promptly
on hand. 1t was not until the gentle
showers turned into driving rain that
they were dismayed, and only then for a
moment.
A suggestion to adjourn to some COM
modious hall in town was greeted with
acc amation and quickly carried out, and
the indoor picnic was voted great sue
cess. The preseut officers'of the associa-
tion were all reelected and it was de-
clded 10 hold the next annual picnic at
Seba stopoi.

SLAIN BY THUGS
IN HIS BARROOM
Port Blakeley Lodging
House Proprietor
Murdered.
Ignores a Command From
Two Masked Men to Hold
Up His Hands.
Makes a Movement Which They
Mistake for an Attempt to
Draw a Weapon.

SEATTLE, WASH, Juno 1.-two
masked men entered a saloon and lodging
house in Port Biakeley last night. and, g.,
after ordering the occupants to throw up
their hands, murdered Michael J. Lyons
the proprietor. Instead of promptly COM
plying with their request Lyons endeav-
ored to crouch down behind the bar.
As he did so he was shot through the
body, sustaining a wound from which ne
died earlv this morning. With second
shot the men, who had evidently entered
the house for robbery, took to their heels,
having obtained nothing IN the way of
booty. They are still at large, though the
officers of the law are believed to be hard
upon their trail.
.. Carbon and John Mclaughlin, two
longshoremen, who were the only occu-
pants of the saloon at the time of tine
tragedy. believed that The desperadoes
presumed Lyons, in endeavoring to get
the bar between the m and himself, sought
to obtain revolver with which to make
q hight. However, such does not appear
to have been the mans intention.
The whole affair did not occupy five
minutes, and when a boarder named
Bergat, who was in the lodging-house
over the saloon, ran down after hearing
the shots he found LYONS lying PROSTATE
upon his back The man lived long
enough to give some incoherent direc-
tions and to say that he believed he knew
his assailants, for one of the men dropped
the mask from his face while in the sa-
loon.
Lyons lived in Seattle and had gone TO
Port Blakeley to take charge of the properly
during he absence of his son, who man
aged the place. He was known TO keep
large sums of money about hinp, especially
as he had no confidence in banks, having
lost several thousand dollars two years
ago by the failure of t e Merchants Ma
tional. He leaves a widow and several
children, Mrs. Howard, the wife of D. K.
Howard, a Seattle pioneer, being
daughter.
