Philadelphia Fails to Specify What

This time the joke Is on Manager

Peoples received a telegram from
O'Brien asking for rates at the Baldwin
hostelry, and thinking that he would
like the Philadelphian as a guest the
boniface loosened up considerably for
the fighter, quoting him the best ac-
commodations at the lowest price.

ing that O'Brien would be on hand to
take possession day before yesterday.

peared Peoples refused to worry, for he
thought that the Philadelphian would
have to pay for his reservation whether
he occupied the quarters OF not.
Now Mr.. Peoples sees the little dinge
in the kindling. j. O'Brien, in his
usual cautious manner, had omitted to
specify what Monday was meant, and
until yesterday the Oakwood inn had
several unused rooms on hand which
were rented but for which no payment

FAIR ATHLETES
TO RIVAL BOYS
GIRLS AT HIGH SCHOOL WILL
HAVE TRACK TEAM
Local Basketball Players Win Cham-
pionship by DefauIt-Stanford
Relay Cup Arrives and Is
on Exhibition

The Los Angeles high school girls will
put track team in the field. With a
desire to keep up with their brothers,
who won the championship of the state
and of Southern California, the girls
will go in for field and track events, and
in the course of few terms expect 10
have an aggregation OF athletes that
will do things to rival teams.
Don Goodwin manager of the boys
track team, and Louis Bristol, chain
pion basketball man, will train the
girls, and both are confident that they
can make a fine showing with the ma
terial at hand.
1t is probable that the girls basket
ball team will not be called on to fight
for the championship honors of South
ern California this season. The girls
took the county championship and had
arranged a game with Santa Paula to
play off the semi-finals for the cham
pionship of Southern California. The
game was called off by the northern
girls, and it Is probable that the laurels
will be given to the local team without
am effort. The high school girls took
the championship of the southern Sec
tion last year and have won every game
they have played this term.
The Stanford relay cup, which the
track team won on it's northern trip at
the state meet in March, came yester-
day and was on exhibition at the high
school.

BILL SQU|ERS IS
READY FOR JEFF
Reaches San Francisco and viii Begin
Hurting Challenges Right and
Left Today at Heavy
weights
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO. April 16.-Bill
Squiers has arrived, but is yet to give
forth statements as to his hopes and
fears. The Ventura passed in tonight
about 10 o'clock, but under the quar-
antine laws no one will be allowed to
board the vessel until she has been
given a clean bill of health. Conse-
quently Bill will have to wait until
the morning comes to tell the dear
public what he knows.
Squiers' own abashed statement that
he would like to fight Jim Jeffries
seems absurd. From the standpoint
of the average American who knows
what Jeffries has accomplished, any
man who has the temerity to talk about
his chances is entitled to medal for
his nerve
California will give Squiers a fair
trial and impartial treatment, but there
is no reason for going into ecstasy
over a man whose form Is an unde-
termined quantity and who may or
many not win.
In fact, from the accounts of his
fights and from his showing against
the man who was whipped by AL Neil,
uiers would hardly be a favorite In
Wis first fight, presuming that he goes
against as rugged man as Tommy
Burns
The Ventura is expected to dock this
morning between and 8 o'clock.

BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK. April 16.-Tonight's ses-
sion of the peace congress was devoted
to the universities and their work in
the way of bringing about world peace.
President Nicholas Murray-Butler of
Columbia university, who presided, said
the universities were foremost as rep
resentatives of the highest ideals, in
cluding peace.
John Rhys of Oxford university told
of the great impetus to international
fellowship furnished by the Rhodes
scholarships, many of which are held
by Americans.
Rev. E. S. Roberts, chancellor of
Cambridge university, urged the clergy
to raise it's voice in behalf of peace.
One day in each year, he declared,
should be set apart for this purpose by
the ministers of both continents.
John Barrett, formerly minister to
Colombia, spoke at the meeting at the
Hotel Astor this afternoon when the
Commercial and Industrial Aspects of
the Peace Movements" were considered.
Five thousand people responded to
the invitation to young peoples
meeting" at Carnegie hall this evening.
Prof. Henry Bailey Turner spoke on the
peace Movement and the Arts"
Senorita Huidobro spoke on the topic,
"The Christ of the Andes"
DIR. Felix Adler of New York said
public men were under bonds to stand
for sober second thought in times of ex-
citement. His address was made the
occasion for an announcement that Dr.
Adler had been appointed by Theodore
Roosevelt professor of the University
of Berlin for 1908 and 1909.
Prof. John r. Finlay of the college
Of the city of New York declared IN
his address that war was not needed
In the curriculum of nations. 1t had, he
said, kept back the advance OF ciVlliza-
tion.
Miss Jane Adams of Hull house, Chi
cago, said Ignorance had caused war
originaIlv. The spread of knowledge,
she added. combined with acquaintance
between countries would end war for
ever.

DANUBE BEATS
COAST RECORD

Danube, Capt. j. C. Newton's clever
matinee performer, went a nice exhi-
bition mile to a wagon while being
worked out at Agricultural park
yesterday, reeling off the circuit of the
track in 2:131a, which does things to
the coast record Of 2:14%. Danube was
being given a prep for the Driving
clubs matinee Saturday when he per-
formed with such credit and Owner
Newton, as well as J. D. Springsr who
drove him yesterday, feels confident
that the animal will break the record
before the matinee spectators.
The mark set by Danube yesterday
exactly equals the same animals per-
formance to a bike and the surpris-
ing manner in which he stepped with
a wagon behind him instead of a cart
is most gratifying to those who would
like to see the horse do something
Saturday
In addition to Danube, Red-Lac, the
sensational grand circuit performer,
with a 2:0712 mark behind him, will
also try and punish the coast wagon
record, and Secretary Stewart of the
Driving club is confident that he will
provide the spectators who journey to
Agricultural park Saturday with plenty
of sport.

Nj CAREY MAY
CALL OFF BIG
MAY BATTLE
Is Getting Sore at
O'Briens Actions
PhIIadelphlan Must Appear Today "
He Expects Local lmpresario
TO GO Ahead and Adver-
tise Mill

After sticking around his office all the
afternoon and until far into the night
waiting for the answer to his long dis
tance call to San Francisco in an en-
deavor to locate Jack O'Brien Manager
McCarey was a much disgusted man
last night, and tie chances are that If
the Quaker does not let him know where
ne is by tonight McCarey will call the
big battle with Tommy Burns off.
While he has not stated that he would
do so, McCarey is too good a business
man to haggle much longer without any
sign from o. 'Brien. The date for the big
mill is only twenty-one days distant
and If he does not feel that O'Brien is
going to fight the local impresario
will have to get busy and frame UP an
other card.
With thousands of visitors In the city
during the second week in May, Nc
Carey will overlook q good bet If he
does not have a special attraction to
spring on the public at that time, and
If he calls the Burns-O' Brien match off
and puts on another mill in it's stead
the sporting public will not blame him
in the least.
When the articles were signed by
Burns and O'Brien it was understood
llldL DUH men were To De LOS Angeles
by the 18th of March at the latest.
Tommy Burns came in time, but
O'Brien, with his unusual ideas of pub
licity, made a clean getaway and not
even Sherlock Holmes could locate him.
Hard for Tommy Burns
OF course the calling off of the
Burns-O' Brien fight will work a great
hardship on Tommy Purns, who has
been in the city for some time getting
into shape. Burns gave up some juicy
theatrical engagements to come here
when he did, and the financial loss to
him will be great in Iced.
Manager McCarey will also lose some
thing in the money line, as he has al
ready contracted for thousands of ex-
pensive Autographs with which to ad-
vertise the contest. Still, it would be
better for McCarey to lose the COM
paratively small sum now than to let
the May date go by without a special
attraction with which to entertain the
Fiesta crowds.
McCarey vas seen at his office late
last night and expressed himself as
disgusted with o Brien's actions. "I
don't know what to make Of Jack" he
declared. mot only does he fail to
show up, but he hasn't even answered
my kilograms as to his plan of cam
paign. Only three weeks elapse until
the date set for the fight. and if O'Brien
doesn't want to fight it would be moth
ing but kindness on his part to tell
me So"
AS McCarey is fast becoming tired of
the Philadelphian's rough work some-
thing is sure to drop either today or
tomorrow, and when it does McCarey
is sure to be supported in his actions by
the general sporting public, whose fa-
vor O'Brien has of late Gone much to
lose.
