A BLOW AT
HONEST SPORT
Charles T. Boots Ordered
From the Ingleside
RacetraCk.
He Will Contest for His Right
to Remain by Law if
Necessary.
Legitimate HOrsemen Appalled, by the
Unwarranted Act of the Pa
cifc Club.

Notwithstanding the statement OF
Henry J. Crocker, vice president OF the
Pacific Coast Jockey Club, that neither he
nor his association were likely to take any
part IN the Boots Williams controversy.
i'll action was taken yesterday at the
meeting of that organization and Mr..
Boots was ordered to take his stock from
the Ingleside track.
Charles T. Boots is not the man to
quietly submit to any such INJUSTICE, and
he proposes to contest the rights of the
association in the position it has taken.
This body debated the proposition in
meeting yesterday morning and the de-
cision was that Mr.. Boots must remove
his string of horses from the stables and
track at Ingleside and, further, that he
be subjected to the indignity of giving up
his badges.
Mr.. Boots announces that this is going
too far and hat he has placed the matter
gives him the Information that he has
rights in the premises and advises him to
disregard the order. If the CLUB wishes
to take up the fight of another horse
racing body it can only do SO after the
horseman says he will act upon the adv ce
of his lawyer, and the matter may at any
time be thrown into the courts.
This action on the part OF the Pacific
Coast Jockey Club is one of the worst
blows that legitimate sport has receivt
Tor many day. Mr.. Boots is a most en-
thusiastic sports tsman and breeder of fine
stock and never i'll his experience on the
turf has a single word been uttered to his
discredit and no one can point the finger
of suspicion at him for any transaction in
which he has been interested.
1t has frequently been observed that he
has never bet on his horses but has en-
tered them in the contests for the purses
offered His high standing in the horse
racing community has been established
in the face OF his enemies persecution bv

the California Owners and Breeders As.

Two Charges and Four Speoi-
fcations of Neglect Of Duty
and Disobedience.
OFFICIAL ORDER TO ISSUE TO-DAY.
Members of the Court Took Into
Account the Youth and Inexperi-
enoe of the Cavalry Officer.

The National Guard court-martial ap-
pointed to try the case of Captain Charles
A. Jenks, First Troop Cavalry, found the
accused officer guiIty-as published in
The CALL last Wednesdays all the
charges and specifications, and sentenced
nim 10 be discharged from the service.
Last evening General r. II. Wartield
commanding the Second Brigade, n. G.
c., approved the findings and sentence of
the court. The official order OF approval
will be issued to-day.
Two charges were laid against the cap
tain. The first charge was NEGLECT of duty,
in which there were two specifca tions. 1t
was specified first that he gave the horses
of the troop insu fficient food. In the Sec
ond place it was specified that he neg
lected 10 give the horses any food for forty
hours.
The second charge was disobedence of
orders, the Misrepresentation of this charge
being that he neglected to appear when
ordered. The second specification was
that he failed to produce books, papers
and vouchers as directed. He was found
guilty on all that was charged AMI speci-
fed.
lDSre was no OeSlTe on JDe part OIL the
National Guard authorities to degrade
Captain jerks or punish him with un-
usual severity. Had charges of conduct
un becoming an officer and gentleman
been lodged against nm, he would on
conviction have been sentenced TO ex-
pusion from the service. The gravest
charge, therefore, was not lad against
him. When an officer is cashlered and
expelled fr m the service a forfeiture of
his rights OF citizensh p follows. He is
distranchised and also disqualified from
holding any position OF trust and honor
in the publ service.
The court which tried Captain jerks
took into consideration the youth and in
experience of the accused officer. The
charges were 30 serious and the testimony
as to his guilt so overwhelming that the
court decided tnat a reprimand, however
severe, would not be sufficient punish
ment. The court, therefore, sentenced
the accused to be discharged from the SER
vice. 1t is doubtful whether lighter
sentence would have received the ap-
proval of the brigade commander.

was opened at brigade headquarters last

Two new DIRECTORS.
Banker Hellman and Henry Scott
Elected by the Market

Old Elghth-S Street Horse-Car Line to
Be Changed to an Electric
Road.

AT a meeting yesterday afternoon the
board OF directors of the Marke;- street
Railway Company elected as new directors
l. W. Helman, the banker. &c succeed w.
}. Adams, and Henry T. Scott, president
OF the Union Iron Works, TO succeed Will
liam ii. Crocker, whose res gnaiion was
rendered and accepted just before the elec-
ton.
The complete list of directors is now

HolbrooK, G. G. Lathrop, n. I. Smith,
AlVlnza Hayward, ]. /. Willcutt, l. W.
Hellman and Henry T. Scott.
The reason assigned for Mr.. Crocker's
withdrawal from the board is pressure OF
business.
The directors decidei to reconstruct the
Eighth-street car line. At some time in
the near future the present tedious, al
most useless, infrequent unaitractive and
anilGuated horsecar service on Eighth
street from Market sonth 10 Brannan,
VIII be replaced bv an electrician system.
Final ARRANGEMENTS and the letting OF con-
tracts tor the necessary cars have not yet
been considered.

sQuarely in the back and thrown 10 the
ground, and had it not been for the fen
der on the car would have been crushed
and mang led by the wheels.
An hour later the same man was struck
by a car on the San Mateo line, and again
the fender saved the body from being
ground under the wheels. Supervisor
Britt was present when the body was
taken from the front of the car, and vas
the only one who could give clew as to
is Identity. He was certain that it was
one of Captain Delany's primary voters
He said he was certain on the point, for
he knew that many of Delany's voters IN
the primaries We're straw men, and this
was straw man. Nine of the ten Super
risors who were present when the incl
dent occurred laughed at Britts pleas
antry. but the captain never changed
counienance. unless it might be that the
general con our of his face assumed a
little more gravity.
The Sc pervisors were out investigating
Car tenders, and Captain Delany did moi
miss the opportunity to look wise. In
fact, all of them looked wise shook their
heads with an evidence OF grcat knowledg dge
of car tenders, said lItle about the fen
ders themselves. but all cf them felt sure
that the man would have been killed every
time he was hit.

his pulse and announced that he was still
able TO vote. These Supervisors are great
ways.
The Market-street Railway Com pany has
been studying the question OF car tenders
and has finally succeeded in manuac-
turing one that is believed by the officials
of the company to fill all the requirements
and properly safeguard the persons of
those who forsake the sidewalks for the
more open car tracks. This instrument
which looks like a cross between five
barred gate and hay rake. was attached
10 the front end of car and then the
engine of destruction sped down on the
doomed dummy. The dummy couldn't
talk, and so the world will have 10 forego
the pleasure of knowing Just how it feels
TO be knocked down, rolled over and
margled by streetcar unless some enter
prising yellow reporter should stand the
test and write IL up for the Mission-street
faker.
But while the dummy couldn't talk be-
lore the attack it is q sure thing that had
it been man il would never have ia ked
afterward. The first experiment resulted
in the body being knocked on its head,
which was 50 doubled under the body that
the neck woulu have been broken. Then
the body was laid on the track and was
rolled under the gate and on the fender
with all iron rod jammed down on its
throat.
