With the Tennis

Owing to the dampness yesterday the
Golden Gate Park tennis players were un-
able to commence their handicap doubles
tournament until afternoon and the affair
was not completed at dark Six teams are
left TO contend for first honors Two

counts for the numerous defaults

reached the semi-hnal round and in the
lower half Code and Finch reached the
same round without playing a match. The
latter team will meet the winner OF the
match between the HOtchkiss brothers
and Black and Brady. LyttOn and Cav
ness Will meet the winners Of the match
between Griffin and James and Foley and
Twfggs. The Hotchkiss brothers will
probably play Griffin and James IN the
final and a great match will result
The most interesting match of the day
was that between VIII Allen and Harry
Routh, who were handicapped two
sixths" back Of scratch, and the HOtch-
kiss brothers, who received a handicap OF
'-twO-sixths of fifteen" The scratch men
won the first set, TO, but did not play ag-
gressively enough in the next two. which
were won by the handicap men rather
easily. The score in favor Of HOtchkisS
and HOtChkiss was ST 6-1, 6-1.
With a handicap of 'four-sixths OF fif-
teen" Gayness and LyttOn, two promising
young players defeated c. ]. Smith and

Plan to Fleece Poolroom Men.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. IS.-Sorne of the
details of the bold attempt to rob the
Shreveport Turf Exchange by cutting the
wires and getting the results of the New
Orleans races ahead of the delayed pool
room results have just leaked out. The
wire was cut between Shreveport and
Texarkana just before the result of the
race agreed upon was sent. A man in
New Orleans then wired the result of the
race TO Te0rkana and a confederate
there telephoned it to the principal ope-
rators in Shreveport, who placed their
bets on the sure thing" OF course they
won. The men who got the money were
arrested. They became alarmed and re-
turned their winnings to the poolroom
men.

pital that the patient had had an attack
of pneumonia. which developed septice-
mia. The case is so radically different
from the others which have been OBJ
served that the physicians hesitated about
the use of the formalin solution. The high
fever, however, indicated septic cOndi-
tions. An examination of the blood re-
vealed that the poison had found its way
into the circulation. The case was one
which would have been regarded absO-
lutely hopeless under ordinary conditions.
DR.. Barrows offered to administer the
first injection. The second was given BIZ
members of the house staff The patient
was almost on the point of death. The
effects of the first injection wore Off after
twenty-four hours, although the tempera-
ture of the patient dropped to normal
within four hours after the initial treat
ment. The physicians hope that the sec
cnd injection. which was given under bet
ter conditions, will bring about marked
Improvement by noon tomorrow.

chinery. AS 1t was he got swell bunch
of red roses the first time he came to the
bat, and just to show he was good fell
low he punched out a base hit and scored
a run. The next time Joe came up he
tore off two-cushiop shot over third,
which netted two more runs for his team
Big Bill Lange was not game enough to
don suit and run around the field This
sort of thing did not look good to Bill at

the umpire's stunt" quoth Little Eva,
and he bravely went forth to undertake a
task that has made the heart of many a
brave man quail.
And he actually delivered the goods to
the finish. He selected first and second
base his resting places, so that he
could duck down behind the basemen
when the beer bottles and cushions began
to come fast.
Ham Iberg, the favorite twirIer of last
seasons San Francisco team, loomed up
on the slab as Corbett's opponent. That
old-time curve of Hams. which has a
habit of pausing in midair ere it reaches
the plate, proved a wonder for the time
being. Then the Americans became Jo-
seph to Hams layout, and in the fourth
round they fell on the foaters for four
rIns. This gave them lead which was
never lost, nor in danger of being lost
Fully 10000 spectators crowded into the
park and rooted and yelled at every good
and bad play that happened to come
through. The news of the appearance of
Lange and Corbett enticed many an old
crank to the game, and there were people
present who had not viewed a diamond
struggle for more than ten years
The game was interesting and well

Referee, Joseph =. lODln.
The stars of the game were Walter Ho-
bart, who scored three goals for the Reds,
and Maurice Duval. They were in the
thick of every scrmmage and each did
yeoman duty for his side. The game start
that the ball was overrun on many occa-
sons. A number of new ponies were
played and proved so difficult to control
that their riders had to give them partic-
uiar attention, thus detracting from their
games.
When the players arrived on the field
the fog was so dense they could see but
a short distance. AS the hour set for the
game approached the sun made its pres
ence felt and dissipated the mists.
When the ball was put in motion the
first period, Maurice Duval, for the
Whites. at once took possession and drove
il toward the Reds goal. Walter Hobart
drove it outside. This play was repeat
ed almost Immediately Near the end of
the period. Mr.. Hobart secured a fresh
pony and ran the ball across the field,
nearly scoring a goal
Mr.. Hobart scored the first goal near
the close of the second period. In the
third period he scored another goal with
a brilliant stroke, which was applauded
by the spectators on the clubhouse veran-
da. 1t seemed an impossible feat to
place the ball between the posts from the
place where it had rolled and at the rate
Of speed at which the players pony was
travelling.
Joe Tobin Jr. scored the first goal for
the Whites in the third period Maurice
Duval scored for the same team in the
fifth period. The sixth was a blank The
same teams will play again next Sunday.

street baseball grounds to gaze upon
IL the scene at Recreation Park yester-
day afternoon. A tremendous crowd,
a perfect day and the faces of Joe Corbett
and Bin Lange all seemed to remind the
ime-honored fan of the glorious past,
when baseball ruled supreme in San
Francisco.
Yesterdays exhibition closed the winter
series in this city. 1t was fitting climax
to a memorable trip. The proceeds of the
game are to be turned over to the mother
of the late Winnie Mercer, and judging
from the crowd that gathered the MEM
ory of the departed star is dear to every
man and woman who ever saw him per-
form on the ball field.
The receipts of the game will be about
$1575. This money will be sent at once to
the mother of Mercer.
Joe Corbett, the former Baltimore Idol,
appeared on the slab for the Americans
and pitched remarkable game. He al
lowed but three runs and six base hits
during the entire nine rounds Of action,
and barring a little Witness was as good
a ) any of the premier artists who have
been surprising the native fans during
the past two months.
Joe was given rousing reception when
he took his place in the box. He was at
tired in the regulation suit, all except the
bonnet, and that was the levliest bit of
headgear that ever came into Frisco. 1t
had a German bandmaster's lid backed
off the boards in point of coloring, and
the shape was a cross between an old
