CHAUFFEURS
MUST EXERCISE CARE
Automobile Men Confer With
Officials in Regard to
Speed Law.

L. P Lowe, chairman of the executive
committee Of the Automobile Club of Cal
ifornia; S. G. Buckbee, John burst, Cap
tain Gleason, John McLaren, Police Com
missioners Pohein, Reagan and Drink
house, Police Judges Cabaniss and Short
all held an informal meeting yesterday
for the purpose Of discussing a plan for
putting stop to the reckless operation
of automobiles without causing serious
friction and annoyance.
The Police Commissioners. in conse-
querce of the recent accident near Zin-
kand's restaurant. had prepared a reso-
luton that all chauffeurs should get IL
censes from the commission. but the rep
resentatives of the Automobile Club are
anxious to have the abuse checked with
out any more ordinances or restrictions
than there are at present.
L. p. Lowe stated that it is not neces-
sary to do anything more than to enforce
the State law, which provides small fine
for a first offense, a fine of $50 and a
warning for Il second offense and a fine
of 500 for a third offense. Both the sec
ond and third offenses may be punished
by Imprisonment Just at present many
news cars are reaching the city and own
ers are anxious to see what speed they
are capable of. 1t was sugge ested that
chauffeurs be warned by gestures of the
hand more frequently than is the custom
=. DR.. Poheim suggested that circular be
sent to all professional chauffeurs, call
ing their attention to the provisions of
the State law and warning them that ii
must not be violated. The police have
been too lenient and too strict by turns
The commissioners intend in future to de-
prive chauffeurs arrested for speeding of
their licenses. one week for the first of
fense. one month for the second and six
months for the third. A strict eye will
also be kept on regular offenders who
drive between 8 p. m. and or 8 a. m.
Complaint has been made of the use of
noisy, sleep disturbing signals and some
measures may be taken to put a stop to
the use of sirens.
The Automobile Club offered the SER
vices Of an attorney and motorcycle to
the Police commissioners. The former is
to guard the commissioners from being
imposed upon by chauffeurs who may
take advantage of the commissioners ig-
noranee of the technical details of auto
MODELLING.
At noon the party started from the Hail
of Justice in automobiles and went out to
the Casino for luncheon.

GIG CREW OF MARBLEHEAD
WINS FROM CHICAGO OARSMEN
Men of the Flagship Fall short Some
Three Lengths at the
Efufah

SAN DIEGO. April 14.-Before q
crowd that lined the wharves this fore
noon the gig crew of the Marblehead
defeated the crew from the flagship
Chicago by three boat lengths over a
two-mile straightaway course begin
ming up the bay near the Standard Oil
Companys wharf and ending at the
stern of the Chicago. For 300 yards the
two crews were even. but the Marble
head boat gradually pulled ahead until
the finishing line was reached. There
did not seem to be as much interest In
the race as there has been in some OF
the challenge races, for in them there
is always a big amount of money up
The race today was merely for trophy
offered by the department
Another race scheduled was a sailing
race between the launches of the Mar
blehead and those of the Princeton and
the Boston. 1t was not finished. as the
wind dropped and the boats could not
cover the course. The Marblehead re-
tains the trophy, having won IL at Pam
anna last summer. The. trophy for the
rowing race was first won by the Ben
nington at Callao over a year ago. and
1T was returned TO the flagship to de-
fend when the Bennington went out OF
commission The sailing race will be
held or Monday.

The Seals have acquired the habit OF
slumbering some lately, and after they
had been enjoying beauty sleep yes
terday that was FIVE innings long, the
fans began to twitch and nudge one
another, for the Siwashes had already
gathered three and Gleason's brigade
had not broken In. But the work they
did in the sixth and eighth spasms' was
good and strong, so the game ended
San Francisco, Z; Seattle, 8.
Young Mr.. Charles Hall, who was dis
pensing the slants for Seattle. began to
look like the blow-up kid For few
innings he can make the Seals resemble
bushers nearly every time he starts.
But his time of usefulness generally
fades away about the sixth or seventh
innings, when most of the disasters OF
the week have come to pass.
The tide of victory took double flip
and began to run for the Seals In round
six, when Seattle was leading, TO U.
Hit ushered in the inning by laying
down a clever one and beating 1t out to
first Along came Hide and stung the
leather for Upper into right. He was
thrown out trying to make IT Souno

Kid Mohler rode one into left for two
stations, chasing in Hit. Waldron beat
a bunt and Irwin produced a long fly
to left for the second tally. The crowd

into the air when Frary executed a
wild heave to third trying to catch
Waldron stealing and this little mis-
take was responsible for the run that
tied it up.
In the seventh the Seals rested, but
they were all working right again when
time was called for the eighth. Wal
dren started it off with walk and
Irwin sacrificed. Spencer laid one down
and beat it out, and Hall heayed 1t
away at first, letting Waldron score and
Spencer go 10 third. After that Scho-
field and Gochnauer laid the timber
against the sphere, and it was a regu-
| lar line of march for a minute, ending
after four of the home brigade had nm
| ished their promenade over the sacks.
The game was one of the kind the
fans all agree is a peach. 1t contained
plenty of exciting incidents and was
marred by few misplays The rally of
the Seals came in the nick Of time and
made the crowd feel right again. The
attendance was large, nearly 1000 fans
| passing through the gates.
Manager Jack Gleason hopes to annex
| two games today. In the morning, at
Oakland, he will pitch one of his young
sters, probably Doyle. Dick Williams
will unwind his collection in the after
noon for the first slime this season.
Dick looks in good form right now, and

Stanford took kindly to the curves of
Pitcher West in the first two innings and
Strengthened them out for useful two-bag=
gers and three-baggers, scoring in all
three runs. Jack Mccarthy, the blue and
, gold coach. was quick to see the weak
spot in his lineup and when the Berkeley
men trotted on the field at the opening
of the third inning Reinhardt, a fresh
man, went into the pitchers box for the
frst time in a championship game.
From that time on Stanford was unable
10 score, although some Of its men
reached third. Reinhardt pitched a cool,
heady game and fielded his position like
a veteran. He was always in the game,
backing up the infelders at opportune
times

The adherents Of each team tried all
their arts 10 disconcert the opposing

while gloom hovered over the blue and

he struck the last blow for American free

that had first unfurled the American flag
on the sea
In lEH Barry was appointed one of six
captains to command six new ships which
congress had ordered. This was the foun-
dalton of the American navy. The letter
OF the Secretary of War, notifying these
officers of their appointments, stated that
their rank would be according to the order
In which they were named and Barys name
