The San Francisco call., 1897-03-12

The victors were loudly applauded and
highly mmended by press ana lndividu-
ais for their excellent shooting. Soon
after match the team returned to San
Francisco, bringing home the trophy, a
beautiful statuette OF the "Soldler OF Mara
thon,'' hicb they held for one year, not
being al BILE to enter further contest on
account OF lack of funds.
At the time OF the shooting of that
match THE CALL presented 10 Its many
readers great stroke of enterprise. 1t
was the publication of the target OF each
shooter, showing where the bullet struck,
something that had never before been
done on this coast and was done at that
time by only one newspaper in the East.
AT the shooting range THE CALL had a
series of ruleI charts or reproductions OF a
target that was crossed by lines quarter
OF an inch apart and each line was num-
bered. When a shot was fired its position
on the target fired at was located on the
chart at the point where the perpendlcu-
lar and horizontal lines crossed, then the
perpendicular and horizontal mum bers
were telegraphed and located on similar
chart in THE CALL office. after which the
spot was marked on reduced metal C arts
or targets that were ready TO be inserted
in the columns of the paper.
Colonel H. ]. Burn, who is now the
ranking officer of the team, has requested
all the living members of the team to
meet him or communicate with HIM in
regard to the proposed meeting.

captained the freshman baseball team
which recently won the class champion
ship by defeating the juniors in hotly
contested game. He Will be one of the
strongest players on the Varsity team this
year, as he is in great form. Strohn has
played i'll the Los Angeles High School
team and also in the TuftsLyons and the
University of Southern California base
ball mines. His position has always been
behind the bat. Strnhn will undoubtedly
play second in the Varsity, filling the base
lett vacant by S. Harris of last years
team.
The reason for the change is that the
team already has good catcher In A. 5.
Jeffs. Both Jeffs and Strohn have been
tried al second, but the latter had the ad-
vantage at that position. He IS taking
course in history at Stanford and is as
good student as he is a ball-player, and
that is saying good deal.

interest. The entries in the different

CAUTIOUS STEERING.
Republican Senatorial Pilots Discuss the
Problem of Filling Vacancies
in Committees.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 1.-THE
Republican Senatorial steering commit
tee met last evening in Senator Allison's
room, but no action of any kind was
taken. The members received their notices
late and did not arrive until the confer
ence was breaking up.
While no me m ber of the committee was
able to offer tangible solution to the
existing difficulty in connection with the
filing of vacancies on committees it was
the general impression that no com bina-
ton having for its object the organization
of the Senate committees by the silver
vote could be made effective.
Several members OF the committee have
given this question the most painstaking
consideration and Geld numerous confer
ences and have reached the conclusion
that the differences between the elements
are so great and the demands made 80 in
capable of being complied with that it
will be utterly impossible for the oppo-

ball Championship From the Juniors
IN Close Came

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL :,
March 1.-THE freshmen baseball players
won the university class cham pionship,
defeating the juniors in a hotly contested
game, by the score of to 5.
In the first half of the seventh inning by
upching hits the freshmen tied the score
amid the widest excitement. For while
it looked as though the usually friendly
classe swould engage In good old d-time
rush" The trouble ose over mis-
understanding. Irwin '96, stage manager
of the production of 'Shs Sioops to Con-
quer" 10 be given by the ''Sword and
Sandals" next Friday evening, attempted
10 prevent Freshman Briscoe, one OF the
stars of the aggregation, from wearing out
his voice yelling.
Jerry Rusk, the impe.uous president,
misinterpreted his motives. The crowd OF
class sympathiZers gathered around, and
with great difficulty peace was restored
and a satisfactory explanation given.
The fresh made one run in the
eighth inning, which decided the game in
their favor, as the juniors were unable to
increase their score.
Clair Struhn and Alexander Jeffs each
caught star game for their two res pective
sides. Both are strong at stick work and
sure catchers.
Beckett, the varsity candidate Tor
pitcher, pitched steady game under ex-
tremeIy trying circumstances. The en-
thus astic juniors. under the leadership of
Irwin and Shoemaker, did all in their
power to disconcert him, but without any
noticeable effect.
Lougbeed. the leading candidate for
varsity shortstop, put up an excellent
game and accepted a number of difficult
chances. Hill, Wright. Cotton. James and
Klauber played good game for the
juniors. Murphy, Morgan and McGilvray
won applause on the freshmen team for
clever work in the field.
Juniors-5 runs, hits. 10 errors.
Fresh men-6 runs, hits, errors.

SAUSALITO, CAL, March 1.-G. Yves,
tersen, the owner of the Buffalo Hotel on
Water street, said to-day that Billy Har-
rison, the well-Enown poolman, had been
to him and he had given Harrison the re-
fusal of the place. Harrison intends 10
let him know his decision in few days.
Other parties also looked at Westersen's 8
place. but he said that as Harrison had
occupied it when he was cond ucting his
commission business in Sausalilo last
year he would consider his c.aims in pref
erence 10 any others.
The people doing business on the water
front are in favor of having the poolmen
come back, but the hill people, as the
aristocratic citizens are termed, are decid-
edly against the proposition, and the
prospects OF more battles between the
town authorities and the poolmen are as
sured.

Senate, and what action the Town Irus-
