SCOTTISH WHITE FEATHER
The Highlanders Refused to
Meet the ard.Pu!ling
Swedes.
Teams That Were Success sful-Int terest
in the Contests Rapidly
Incre asing

The crowd that witnessed the tug-ot-war
last evening was the largest since the
com mencemento OF the tournament.
Much disappointment resulted over the
announcement that the Scotch team had
refused to pull unless it had the privilege
of naming an anchorman. This the
Swedes objected to. The referee, Judge
Campbell, decided, after inquiring into
the matter, that the Swedish team was
right, and he gave it the decision by de-
fault.
The United States and Norwegian teams
were the first to put in an appearance last
evening The United States team won a
comparatively easy victory in 2 min.
25 sec.
The newsboys of Powell and Kearny
streets made up team, and at the request
of Judge Campbell, they were given a
chance to try their strength and stamina
in rope pulling. The event created no end
of amusement. The contest was won by
the Powell street boys in 8 min. 2 sec.
The Italian and German teams had
very spirited struggle. The betting was
$40 to $5 in favor of the Germans. The
finish-sh hot declared the Italians winners
in 8 minutes 43 seconds.
The next event was contest between
the Canadian and Danish teams, but the
anchorman of the Canadian team, James
Dunning, refused to pull for reasons best
known to himself.
The Judge announced that the Canadian
team decided TO pull with only seven men
as against eight, and then the captain of
the Danish team refused to pull with the
handicap and ordered one of his men out
of The team making the struggle an equal
thing.
The Canadians won the event, after
most bitter struggle, in min. SO sec.
The last event Of the evening was a
meeting between the Irish and French
teams.
The betting was 10 to in favor of the
Irish team, which won in IL min. 81 sec.

To-day Mrs. Rahlstein applied to the Dis

MCFARLAND, j.
Eugene N. Deuprey of counsel for DUR
rant said last evening that he had no
seen the opinion. but that it was by no
means final. Durrant's attorneys, after
considering the decision, would at once
petition the Supreme Court for rehear-
ing. The fact that Chief Justice Beatty
had declined to sign the opinion might
prove of value to the defense, and his
opinion, when it was handed down, would
be closely considered. Then there would
be constitional point which would un-
doubtedly be carried to the United States
Supreme Court.
Mr.. Deuprey admitted that the decision
had been q surprise to him, especially
that it had been reached so early, consid-
ering the voluminous character of the evi.
nee.
Senator Dickinson, when interviewed
by CALL correspondent in Sacramento
last evening on the subject of the refusal
of the Supreme Court to grant Durrant q
new trial, said:
II am not prepared to state at this time
what further steps 1 will take in this mat
ter. In fact, this is the first intimation
which have received that refusal for
new trial has been made by the Supreme
Court, and if such be the case, it would be
simply impossible for me to come to any
decision for future action until l have
seen this decision. 1t may possibly be
that shall petition for rehearing in the
entire matter, but, as 1 said before, 1 can
not possibly at this time state what action
I will take"

The other night Dry Jones,
OF Petersburg, and the Senior, were
telling war time stories and anec-
dotes. Jones belonged to Artil-
lery and The Senior to In
fantry. For three hours it was "who
shall and who shall" Jones seeing that
the Senior was game, but had bad
cold, told one of his best and topped it
off with the old war song:
"Manly's Battery is on the Line,
Look out, boys, Oh, how they shine"
That was one bean too many and the

Mckinley Said to BE Planning An
nexation.
NEW YORK, June 6.-The Washing
ton correspondent of the Press tele-
graphs: In addition to the vigorous
Cuban policy which the President has
in mind for securing the peace and
independence of the insurgents, he is
said to be contemplating seriously the
annexation of Hawaii
In this purpose the President and his
Cabinet are agreed. The manner in
which the annexation is to be brought
about has not fully been determined,
but it is regarded as not at all i'm
probable that Hawaii will be part of
the United States within year. The
formalities to be observed by the Ha-
waiian Government in seeking annexa-
ton and by the American Congress in
accepting the responsibility cannot
be completed much before that time.

WASHINGTON, June s. There
must be a caucus on the sugar schedule
and expect we will be able to control
a majority of the caucus in favor OF
continuing the Hawaiian reciprocity
treaty."
Senator Frye of Maine, who has
made a fight against any changes in
the commercial convention, which
means so much to San Francisco's
trade, so expressed his belief today.
He continued:
Il hear that the Finance Committee
has already decided to report, instead
of the amended clause as to reciprocity
with the Hawaiian Islands the same
one as is in the House bill, and is in
the Wilson law now in force, which
continues in force all the provisions of
the treaty as it stands. / do not be-
lieve there is strength enough in the
opposition to the treaty to make the
tariff bill a medium for changing any
treaty"

A Hard Fight Is TO BE Made for
Reciprocity.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The pros
poets that the sugar schedule will be
the last one to be considered in the
tariff bill make the chances for the
Hawaiian reciprocity treaty's success
better, though as it stands now there
seems to be no doubt that a majority
of the convention.
The amendment being drawn to a
clause in the bill is said to provide
for the negotiation of new treaty on
on sugar from the islands after one
year.
