JEFFRIES Is ALL RIGHT.
He Will Meet Van Buskirk Tonight
and Is in First Glass Con.
ditiou

1t wss reported yesterday afternoon
that Jeffries, the Los Angeles heavy
weight who is to meet Van Buskirk this
evening at the Peoples Palace, had
sprained the ankle OF his right foot yes
terday while practicing in an Oakland
athletic club, but when the managers of
the National Club were seen last evening
they said there was no truth in the rumor,
and that Jeffrles was as sound as dollar.
Gibbs thought the report was started by
some of the gam blers to influence the bet
ting, which was lively last evening in the
poolrooms, Jeffries selling faverite at 10
TO 7.
The hackers of Van Buskirk will, it is
thought. open up their purse-strings this
evening, as the supporters of the Los
Angeles champion will not give any better
odds than are now offered. Professor
sanguine that Van" will whip Jeffries,
because he thinks "Van" is as hard a
hitter and better ring general than his
opponent.
Two ten-round bouts will be witnessed
before the event of the evening is called
bv the Honorable" Hiram Cook, referee.
Homer Mccoy, a brother OF the we'll,
known puRilist KID Mccoy, will engage
IN passage-at-arms with Hen Slater.
The sports are of the opinion that
Slater will be declared winner, as Nc
Coy is TOO delicate fellow to stand much
punishment.
Morrissey and Maxwell should put up"
good hard fight, and as they are pretty
evenly matched the guessers will have no
easy time to call a winner, but Morrissey
will, in all probability, take the long end
of the purse. A large gathering of the
lovers of the game of hsicuffs is expected
tonight at the Peoples Palace to witness

the Spring Valleys generalization. More
than the present supply could be brought
to this City ior SIS, 00U, 900. He based that
statement upon the opinion of experts and
his own knowledge of the country,
DR.. Clinton asked Engineer Schussler
and Mr.. Quinlan why the company had
not obeyed the recent order of the board
to place meters in certain public squares
and schoolhouses in this City, and both
gentlemen replied that they did not know.
Mr.. Schussler, in reply to the Mayor.
said that the present stock issue of the
company was $l2 800, 900. and it was the
Intention to issue $780, 600 more, provided
that the company should carry out its
plans of new construction for the Potrero
Heights reservoir and other work.
III the interest is reduced to per cent, !"
he added, II don't think we would realize
more than so cents on the dollar, and we
shares IN order to raise the money
needed"
Inc mayor asked why it was that the
stock OF the company had risen from $97
TO $99 since the beginning of the present t
investigation, when the prospects were
that the company's revenues might be cut
down so as to represent only per cent of
the valuation.
Il suppose" replied Mr.. Schussler,
that the vaIu rose il the market because
we nave made such goo showing before
you, and because O good many people
think that we have not been treated ex-
actly fairly by you in your conduct of this
investigation. l believe that the public
thinks that we ought to have per cent
Talking about reducing to 5 per cent and
doing, so are entirely different things. Re-
duce it to 5 per cent and you will see how
soon the stock will drop TO $780,"
Inquiry was next made into the cost of
the CalaveIas property of the company
Mr.. Schussler said that the company paid
81, 100000 for the property of the Alameda
Water Company from Charles n. FELTON,.
1t might not have been worth that sum
then, but the Spring Valley Water Com
pany needed that source of supply for
future demands, and could not do with
out it.
Mayor Phelan took the stand as a wit
ness, and said that the New York Central
Railway Com pany's stock paid per cent.
He considered that 5 per cent would be a
reasonable allowance to the Spring Valley
COM pany on reasonable valuation of its
property.
Money could be borrowed on Spring
Valley stock at per cent. In the City
there is money 10 loan at 2H and per
cent on United States bonds as security.
Some of the banks here are loaning money
for 81 and Per cent. The rate is regu-
lated also by the size of the sum loaned.
The committee of the whole rose, re-
ported progress ana announced that it
would meet next Thursday night. That
will in all probability be the last meeting
at which testimony will be taken.

A LARGE CROWD
At THE TRACK
Three Favorites and Three
Outsiders Won
Purses.
Gutta Percha Captured the Sec
ond Event at Odds of
IS to I.
Thorpe Took the Opening Scram BILE
With Peril-Etta 81 Ran to

The delightful weather and a rather
catchy looking card attracted q large
crowd 10 the track across the bay yester-
terday. The betting, which on the day
pre- ceding, was inclined to be sluggish,
block INDUCED in no maps and whistled
no rhapsodies in minor keys.
RECORD breaking was freely predicted,
but the class of horses starting never gave
old Father Time cause for alarm. The
sport was devoid of incident or accident,
and as three of SIX favoutes crossed the
wire first the talent grumbled not.
Charley Thorpe, who could ride saw
horse and get him home first, had the
mount on Peril in the opening event, a
six-furlong sprint with welter-weights up,
and landed the mare winner from We
ragua, well-backed tip. Logan, starting
n to 3 choice, finished third.
The wise ones said the track was too
hard for Gutta Percha and allowed her to
go practically friendless in the betting on
the six-furiong spin that followed. At
odds of 15 to l she led all the way. and
won clever!y from Trappean. Colonel
Wheeler, the favorite, was never promi.
nent.
II was freely distributed around that
the Baldwin stable folks fancied the
the chances of Rey Salazar to carry off
the purse hung up for the two-year-olds,
yet his odds receded from 10 = TO Is to 5.
Isom handled him badly and third was
the best he could do. Front de Boeuf, the
4 to 5 favorite, won easily from Elsmore,
an TO l shot.
fully Coulter's old horse Redskin was
the hot one for the seven-furlong run, but
he couldn't land. Jones rushed Sallie
CIicquor away in the lead, and Green
Morris mare was never headed, leading
Coulters horse out at the wire by four
lengths in the ordinary time OF 30. Lady
Diamond, on which "Skeets" Martin in
dulged in considerable tilagree work, was
bang-up third, and will bear watching
in future.
All of the big bettors jumped aboard
down from to 10 to 10, he was in
front almost from the start, and led Don
Clarencio out at the finish by half a
length. The latter colt was last of his
field down the back stretch and made a
great run. With better rider he would
have given the winner a very strong argu-
ment. May r, with odds of 40 to about
her, was third.
The good Flam beau flly Eta II defeat
ed her held in the last event decided, q
slx-furlong purse affair. very cleverly
Starting a 6 TO choice Snider got her
over the line length in advance of Shasta
Water, filly which started here for the
first time this season. MidIight. the sec

NEW STREET PAvEMEhTS
The Teamsters Exchange Views
Upon the Important
Subject.
Asphalt and Wood 10 Have a Trial
Alongside of Biiumen and
Basa t.

At a conference recently held between
the directors of the Merchants Association
and the Street COMMITTEES of the Board of
Supervisors upon the various materials
used for street pavements in San Fran
cisco and in other cities it was decided to
ascertain which materials are best
adapted to the streets of San Francisco.
With this object in view a meeting of the
draymen and teamsters OF the City was
called at the assem- bly-rooms in the Mills
building for last night, as it was deemed
ad visa BILE to hold conference with them
for the purpose of ascertaining their
views and wishes in this important
matter.
Various ideas were exchanged regarding
the best pavements for the business por-
ton of the City. d. L. Farnsworth stated
that he was in full accord with the associ-
alton in securing good smooth payements,
but OF such material as would be durable
and yet suitable for teaming. The btu
men had its objection, which every tea M
ster had discovered to his cost.
After general exchange of opinio it
was finally decided to permit the use of
asphalt and wood to be laid on Market
street, under the specifications provided
by the engineer OF the Merchants Asso-
citation, as sample.
Michael Doane spoke of the manner in
which the street railroad companies had
been permitted to pave the streets be-
tween the tracks so as to prevent the use
of the same by teams. Hc said some
| thing should be done to compel them to
pave In conformity with the other por-
tons of the streets.
In response to question regarding q
basalt blocks, Engineer Mccullough gave
it as his opinion that if the blocks were
laid on two inches of sand as a bed with
half an inch space between them, into
which hot asphalt would be poured, it
would make a good pavement, durable
and binding.
The question of brick pavement was
passed, as the experiment had no sup
porters; but asphalt and wood was recon-
mended by unanimous vote as expert
ments.
