ARE PLANNING SPREAD.

No Is Bremen to Celebrate on New
 Years Eve.
 The firemen stationed at the Howard avenue engine house are planning an elaborate spread to be given New Years eve, December 31, in the engine house.

Ruling Is Made Against the Gould In
terests In San Francisco.

San Francisco, March 19-United States
Circuit Judge Morrow today handed down
a decision In the case of the Southern
Pacific company against the Western Pa
cifc Railroad company generally known
as the Gould line, which is seeking to OBJ
tain terminal facilities on the eastern or
Oakland side of San Francisco. Every
contention of the Southern Pacific COM
pany as to rights of way and precedence
along the bay shore was sustained by
Judge Morrow.
The judge also granted an interlocutory
injunction restraining the Western Pa
clhc from Interfering in any way with
the work of the Southern Pacific COM
pany in the extension of its bullkhead to
navigable waters. a cross bill filed by
the Western Pacific company was dis
missed.
The case has been bitterly fought, and
battles between gangs of men laying their
own tracks and tearing up those of the
rival company seemed imminent several
times during the past two months.

CHICAGO SHOWS UP WELL

Inc Armory, Louisville, Ky, March 10
The end of the second days play in the
tournament of the American Bowling con-
gress showed an Improvement over the
work of the first night, due to the boWlers
settling into their stride as they grew
more accustomed to the surroundings and
to the use of the sixteen pound ball and
the alleys. The two-man teams ana the
singles were started today with the five
men teams occupying the night session
and this order will be maintained through
out thestournament.
Considerable confusion and not a lit
tie inconvenience to the BOWERS has re-
suited from the changes in order of bowl
ing made necessary by the abandonment
of Sunday sessions. Some teams on ar
irving find they may have to wait for
four or five days for their turn instead
of one or two as anticipated. others
find they have been scheduled under the
new order to bowl in half an hour after
they step from the train and some of
the visiting teams will not arrive until
after their turns. These defects, how
ever. it is expected, will be straighten-
ed out by tomorrow night without injus-
tce to any one if the revision committee
succeeds in its task as the members hope.
The trouble can in no way be charged
to the local managers of the tourna-
ment. but lies in the fact that, at the
request of the Louisville Citizens league,
the fiscal court, which controls the arm

schedule had been printed, and only a

viii Not Allow Casa Blanca to Be
Placed Under international Command.

Paris, March 19.-Offcials here say that
Frances position is absolute and final
against placing Casa Blanca under inter-
national command 1t is maintained that
this is not a question in detail, but ont
that involves the entire ranco-German
controversy over decentralization of
the police. After exchanges at the va
rious capitals officials declare another
vote will show that France is supported
by Great Britain Spain, Portugal and
Russia. with Austria doubtful, and Italy
and the United States abstaning. Aus
tria's doubt is due to Viennas waver
ing support she has heretofore given
Germany. The current opinion in official
circles is that Germany intends to re-
cede from her position.
The semi-offcial Temps says:
I'VE await Germany's final concessions.
If we wait in vain let Germany say So
and let the conference record a failure
of which German diplomacy must bear
the responsibility before the world.
However statements in the semi-official
press are sometimes designed to satisfy
public opinion. and the indications are
that Foreign Minister Bourgeois is adopt
ing a less peremptorial tone.

by quick twist broke Griffins hold and
saved himself from a fall.

Ed Miles was referee and Harry Miles
timekeeper. Larimore was second for
Hackenschmitt and Kissinger for Griffin.
Will Street and Bob Carr wrestled a

interesting exhibition of the various holds

Chas. Hackenschmitt proved himself
the superior of Tom Griffin at every
point of the wrestling game last night
at the Athletic club and won two straight
falls in the catch as-eateh-ean match. The
first he accomplished after thirty-one
minutes of hard work by a scissors
hold with his legs. The second was in
111s minutes with something in the ma
ture of bar hold.
As in their first match a week ago,
both wrestlers went at the match to win
and their work was intensely in earnest
and at times very thrilling to the large
audience of ladies and gentlemen pres

The most spectacular feature of the
evening was Hackenschmitt's escape from

back in what seemed an absolutely fatal

declared that his appearance at the bar

for failure to suppress the so-called

wealthy people who own houses leased
to traffckers in human souls Were
adopted today by the Methodist preachers
meeting.
The resolutions are based upon dis

Berthe Claiche for the murder of Emil

Robert II. Spriggs, the keeper of a negro
resort. The resolutions assert that "dens
of vice and crime such as have been dis
