CABLE TO MANILA.
Former Collier Has Been Entirely Re-
fitted at Mare Island and Is Now
Taking Coal.

The United States steamer Nero, for
merly collier, came down from Mare
Island yesterday and is now lying in
Mission Bay taking in coal preparatory
to her departure for Honolulu at the end
of this week. The Nero has been en-
tirely refitted and prepared for the work
in which she is to engage, the eXplora-
ton and survey of a route for subma-
rine cable from Honolulu to Manila
In addition to two sounding machines
OF the latest and most approved type the
Nero carries four six-pound rapid-fire
guns, crew Of seventy-five men and the
following officers:
Commander Charles Belknap, commanding;
Lieutenant Commander II. NJ Hodges, execu-
tive officer; Lieutenant John Hood navigating

The route between San Francisco and
Honolulu having been thoroughly sur
veyed, the Nero will begin at Honolulu
and make soundings from there to the
island of LuZon or a midway island and
Guam. No soundings have ever been
made over this part of the Pacific, and
the results of the survey made by the
Nero will be awaited with much interest.

much better support, and therein lies the
secret of the victory. The San Franclscos
ordinarily are terrific hitters, but when
they go up against such a pitcher as Har-
per their slugging abilities will not offset
their own bungles. -Four errors aside from
Hartmans brace of misdeeds had some
thing about them the public admires, and
that is they go for everything in sight, no
matter how difficult it is to reach
The bitterness of defeat is sweetened III
a measure, however, by the consoling re-
Election that Sacramento having dropped
two games to the Holsters, all the teams
are punched.
San Francisco got a hit but no runs in
the first inning, while Watsonville set
tied down to accommodating tallies right at
the outset. Franks, the first man up tore
off double, went to third on King error
Of McCarthy's drive to Riley, whereby
Courtney's single sent the runner nome,
but Mccarthy, who also attempted to
score on the hit. was nipped at the plate
by Muller, who made a great throw home.
Selma was given his base, but Plake was
assisted out at first by Riley.
The second inning brought another run
to Watsonville. Hayes opened with a
Ter, went to third on Harper's long fly to
Pyne and scored on Franks single.
Another notch was cut in the stick IN
the third, when with one out Selma
plucked a single, stole second, was ad-
vanced to third on Riley's error of MOI
rows grounder and scored on wild pitch
by Iberg
Frisco awakened to a realization of its
perilous position in the fourth. Riley and
Krug led off with singles and Sullivan
was given a pass, filing the bases. Hill
derbrandt flew to Plake and then Muller
drove a grounder to the same man. Riley
made a dash for the plate and scored
while Plake threw Sullivan out to Nc
Carthy at second. Krug also got the ball
to the plate ahead of him, completing a
beautiful double play and retiring the side
with one run.
Then came the double disaster to Hart
man and the Frisco team. That ended the
run-getting for Watsonville, but the
locals took one in the sixth and another
in the seventh. John Patrick Parnell
Whitewings Cahill made his debut as an
umpire and filled the position most aC-
ceptably. The score:

and eventually brought up in this city.
After several spasmodic attempts to lure
pork and beans money from an Indifferent
public, the wanderers temporarily aban-
doned the diamond and set up house
keeping in a vacant woodshed at North
Beach. Their sufferings through the
rainy season are of too recent date to
need repeating now; but with the bud
ding spring came new contracts and
they speedily forget their sorrows.
Hartman's backstop work with the Sc
attles had made so favorable an impress
sion with Uncle Hank that when the local
baseball impressario began his search for
talent at the beginning of the season the
catcher was one of the first to be given
job.
But yesterdays game saw his finish
with the local team, at any rate-for two
Algeric blunders in the fourth, which gave
the Watsonville team two runs and the
game, were too much for Harris to for
give and forget. From the beginning of
the game Hartman had manifested evi-
dence of eccentricity, particularly in
throwing to bases; but in the fourth inn
ing he sealed his doom. Harper opened
with a single to left, and was followed by
Franks, who was safe on Riley's error,
Harper going to second. Mccarthy went
to bat, and the first ball pitched got away
from Hartman, permitting both base
called Sullivan in to catch, sending Pyne

quirements of the various departments of

WHISKY AND A CHILD.
Little Robert Taylor Nearly |ictim
of Alcoholic Poisoning.

A pint of whisky nearly caused the
death of little Robert Taylor yesterday
afternoon. The lad, who is about 5
years of age and who resides at 23S
Buena Vista (Bernal Heights), dis
covered bottle of the intoxicant about
the house, and proceeded to stow 1t away
with the avidity of a waterfront lush.
About an hour afterward he STAGGERED
into a room where his parents were and
announced that he was drunk. AT first
they thought him to be joking, but an
investigation which resulted in the find
ing of the empty flask disclosed the truth,
and he was Immediately given an o-netic:
DR. w. r. Scroggs was sent for, but
when he arrived the child was uncon-
scious and in precarious condition; The
physician, after administering available
remedies called an ambulance and the lit
tie sufferer was taken to the City and
County Hospital. His pulsation dropped
from nearly $50 to almost nothing, and
for time his life was despaired Of He
remained unconscious until late last
night. when the doctors announced that
he was slowly recovering.

AMATEUR & ATHLETES.
Pacific Association Assumes Jur1s'
diction Over Rowing on This
Coast

There was a large attendance Of dele
gates at the meeting of the Pacific Asso-
citation of the Amateur Athletic Union
on Friday. An animated discussion arose
when the proposed amendment to the
constitution of the association whereby
the association assumes control of row.
bali, came up for acceptance or rejection.
Though the A. A. U. does not control
these sports, the Pacific Association de-
cided to assume jurisdiction over them on
this coast. H. A. Keeler, George James
and II. Hauser were appointed a commit
tee to get the constitution and bylaws
printed. The presence of John I. Nolan
as a representative of the Ariel Rowing
Club being objected to on the ground
that each club is entitled to only one rep

is the Ariel delegate, it was decided that
John I. Nolan is not entitled to recogni-

RESHIPPING TEA.
Duties on the Fragrant Herb Are Be-
ing Paid at This Port Under
New system,

Since Congress imposed a duty of 10
cents per pound upon tea, UP to April l.
1892 there have been collected at the port
of San Francisco 1851 .611 go duties on the
fragrant herb, Outside of the addition
to the receipts at the San Francisco Gus
tom-house the import duty on tea has
benefited the commerce of San Francisco
in another way. Heretofore it has been
the custom for importers of tea designed
fornia to ship to New York, pay the duty
there and reship to st. Louis. Kansas
City, Chicago, Denver and other markets.
porters are adopting the practice of pay
ing the duty at this port and shipping
direct to the Eastern markets from San
Francisco.
Thus. instead of shipping to New York
and going to the additional and unnec-
essary expense of reshipping back to st.
Louis or Denver, the tea is left here in
the warehouse and shipped whenever
needed.

Cat and Dog Cause a Fire.

A cat and dog while enjoying a fore
moons sportive fit at the residence of
John Mashmer, 1853 Hill street, yesterday
morning at 11:30 o'clock, upset a coal oil
stove which was on table and caused a
fire which destroyed the entire house and
its contents. The house, a one-story
frame building, belonged to George Katz
and was occupied by Mashmer as a dwell
ing. An alarm was turned in from box
237, and by the time the department ar
rived on the scene the fire was beyond any
aid that could be rendered. The loss
amounted to about $500, with no insur-
ance.
