Strike.

Strike.
CHICAGO, April 16.-Labor leaders
will hold a conference tomorrow with
Mayor Edward F. Dunno, who said to-
night that he had hopes of an early
settlement of the teamsters' strike
against Montgomery, Ward & Co. The
coal teamsters to-day decided to re-
fuse to haul coal to the Montgomery
Ward building.
1t is learned tonight that the Chi
cago Tunnel Company is rushing work
on a connection of it's system with the
basement Of Montgomery, Ward &
Co.'s establishment. When such con-
nection is made the firm will be able
to secure coal and to ship goods to all

MISS SUTTON
IN LAST EIGHT
Special Cable to The Call and New York Her
aid. Copyright 1905. by the New York Her
cid Publishing Company.

LONDON, June 29.-Most of the
American tennis players at Wimbledon
to-day were lightly engaged and in
view of the heavy rains and the wet
state OF the courts this was a decided
advantage. Upon Miss May ,dtton.
however, the gloomy. surroundings and
the depressing atmosphere apparently
had no effect. She was again the CEN
ter of attraction and when she went
into the court smiling and confident to
engage Miss Winifred Longhurst, the
Irish champion. there were few among
the hundreds present who did not an
ticipate her victory.
AS matter of fact Miss Sutton soon
put away all doubt of the issue by at
force. Miss Longhurst is one of the
most experienced woman players In
Great Britain. but she could make no
impression whatever against the willy
driving and consistent playing of the
little Californian. 1t is true Miss
Longhurst began well by making the
score three all'' in first set, but after
this stage she fell almost entirely to
pieces. adding TO her troubles by serv-
ing many double faults.
Miss Sutton, grimly in earnest from
start to finish, won the first set by 6-S
and the second set by 6-1. She is now
among the last eight players left in
competition for tomorrow. She is
drawn TO play Miss Ethel Thomson, the
runner-up for the championship in
1908 If she survives this round she
will have gone a long way toward Sc
curing the coveted trophy and cham
pionship at which she is aiming.

BIG ATTENDANCE EXPECTED.
Kid Egan Says Seven Thousand PeOpl,
Will Witness the Fight.


RENO. June 29.-From all indications
the crowd at the Hart-Root fight will be
much larger than the one that witnessed
the great Corbett-Fitzsimmons battle.
The seats are selling at a lively rate.
Secretary Egan of the Reno Athletic Club
stated to-day that every seat in the i'm
mense arena, which has a seating capac-
ity of nearly 1000. will be sold.
Lou Houseman of Chicago, accompanied
by a large number of sportsmen from
that city, arrived here last evening. He
declares Root will be the next champion
and that Mondays contest will be great
fight. He says the Chicago fighter is In
perfect trim. Root will arrive in the
city Saturday morning. He will be ac-
companied by his trainers and by q num-
Der Of Salt Lake and Ogden sports. He
will train for the few days remaining in
this city.
Hart seems to be getting stronger and
faster every day. He enjoys being
punched by his trainers and does not
hesitate to punish them in return for
their blows. In a two-round bout with
Big Jack Mccormack to-day he sent Nc
Cormack to the floor three times. The
third time Mccormack was completely
out Hart did this after boxing several
fast rounds with Roberts and Thompson,
his other trainers. Mccormack claims
the Kentuckian has gained in speed and
that he can punch harder than he ever
did before Betting is at even money
ana a great deal Of coin is being placed.
There are a number of admirers of Root
in the city from Utah and they are offer
ing plenty of Root money. Hart money Is
also being offered in sums of considerable
size. AS a result wagers are easily
made.

YALE is VICTORIOUS
IN ANNUAL BOAT RACE
Most Sensational Struggle in
.Twenty-Seyen Years Com
petition With Harvard.

NEW LONDON, Conn, June 29.-The
Yale varsity crew wrested victory from
Harvard this afternoon in the annual
four-mile race by the length of an oar.
After rowing for four miles with the
shells tapping and the graceful prows
zigzagging between strokes the Yale boat
crossed the finish line three-quarters Of
a length aheel of the Crimson Yale
won by 21s seconds. The time was
% 1914 and Harvard's time was 22:36. Such
a race has never before been rowed IN
the twenty-seven years Of racing between
these old rivals.
The Elrs went to the starting flags
confident of n easy victory, but Coach
Wray sprang surprise on Yale and to-
night his name is on the lips Of every
lover Of rowing as the coming rival Of
John Kennedy, the professional coach at
New Haven.
The tide was running upstream strong
Iy. but the crews had the disadvantage
of the wind. An almost cloudless sky,
as perfect a Jay as could be wished for,
the two big eights trained to the top
notch Of condt--on, all combined to form
q picture ch thrilled the thousands
Of spectators and inspired the crews.
The last mile of the race was fight
never to be forgotten by those who wit
messed 1t. Just beyond the three mile
flag Meir, Harvard's No. Z, who had been
rowing terrific race, seemed to have
pumped himself out. He was suffering
torture and 1t seemed he could not pos
sibly hold his oar the rest of the dis
tance Harvard's stroke dropped back to
81, but 1t stayed there for only short
space OF time. Suddenly Meir seemed
to recover and the Crimson stroke went
up two points. The Harvard boat crept
UP nearer to the Yale boat. Suddenly the
shells were once more Tapped. The Yale
cockswain called for a squirt and his
crew raised the stroke to "a. the highest
they had been taught to row. Still Har-
ward was gaining. Up went the Harvard
stroke to "a and over the last quarter OF
mile the PROV Of the Cambridge shell

MANY PLAYERS ARE ENTERED
FOR TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP
Annual Competition VIII Commence
To-day on the Courts of the Hotel
Rafael. I'm Marin County,

The annual tennis tournaments for
the women's and mems championship
of the State will commence on the
Hotel Rafael courts at San Rafael this
morning at 10 o'clock. Play to-day
will be confined to women's singles, the
opening games of the mems meet being
set for tomorrow. Ten fair racket
wielders entered the women's tourna-
ment, while twenty-six players will
compete in the mems event.
The entry list of the women's singles
is larger and possesses more class than
was expected. OF the ten players en-
tered, Miss Ratcliffe of Berkeley is by
far the cleverest. One of her hardest
matches will be her first. In the pre-
limin4ry round she will meet Miss
Bessie Valleau of Alameda. The latter,
with Miss Wegener, will probably
prove Miss Ratcliffes most dangerous
opponents.
In the first round Miss Ethel Smith
and Miss wegener will furnish a good
match, as will Mrs. Watson and the
winner of the Ratcliffe-Valleau match.
Miss Hitchkiss. the present champion.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

If Cap. Parke Wilson had had a bunch
of glue on his mitt when Jud Smith came
tearing into the pan in the tenth spasm
yesterday at Recreation Park, the Seals
would have chance to take another
ride on the band wagon OF fame. But
Parke did not glaum the ball as he was
supposed to, SO the ambitious Mr.. Smith
registered a run for the Angels that
broke up a ten-inning fight full Of sem
sations. Score, Los Angeles 2, San Fran
cisco l.
OF course the Angels hit the leather
hard enough to make dozen runs. and
they secured enough bases on balls to
swell the total to another twelve. But
it's the same old grind with them. They
can put men on the sacks and then for
sake them like lot of outcasts. The
Seals had all the luck and so the game
was prolonged.
Mr.. Wright, formerly Of Cleveland and
other seaport towns, showed the fans he
has everything a good pitcher should
possess But for the fact that a young
ster was taking his curves, the Seals
would not have made q run. Wright is
a pitcher like Overall, and II he twirls
as he did yesterday he will beat a good

Seals were on the bases. The busher
hits the ball WELL poking out double
and another one that came near being a
single.
The game had passed into the tenth
spasm when Smith opened up with a
double sacker against the center field
fence and Dillon advanced him with an
out. Tozier soused to Gochnauer. who
winged the ball to the pan and Wilson
had his man frozen. But there was no
glue on the mitt, the ball rolled away
and Smith won the game for the Angels.
The Southern delegation started out In
the first as If they were going to make
hundred runs. Bernard was passed and
Flood and Smith beat bunts Bernard
tried to come home on the latter hit, but
Wheeler recovered the ball in time to
wing it to the plate and save run.
Dillon happened along with hit just
then. scoring Flood. The brilliant start
produced but one little tally.
Wright passed Irwin in the second and
he had no trouble in. reaching second.
There were two gone and it looked bad.
Johnny Gochnauer proved the pinch kid,
sIapping out a double to left field that
tangled up the score for nine innings.
The Angels came near breaking 1t all
up in the eighth. There was but one
gone and two on the bases when Dillon
came to bat. Wilson made Williams walk
