democrats, registered as republi-
cans, and all the forces of the city
government, the Herrin machine
swept San Francisco yesterday.
The fight against Herrinism re-
suited yesterday IN complete re-
versal. of the splendid victory won

and local conventions. The Lincoln
Roosevelt league will be represented
by only "A of the 81 san Francisco
delegates in the state convention, and
by SIS out Of 173 delegates in the local
convention
The league viii have only one dele
gate in the fourth congressional dis
trict convention, composed Of Al dele
gates. and has elected only % out OF
the "A San Francisco delegates to the
fifth congressional convention. The
league will not figure in the fourth
district convention and. with the anti
Hayes delegates elected in Santa Clara
county, will fall materially short OF a
majority OF the 81 delegates who viii
comprise the fifth district convention
The machine will nominate I'VE
judges of the superior aourt, two con-
gresSmen. four state senators and Is
assemblymen- The league will nOmi-
nate one senator and i've assembly,
men.
The Lincoln-RooseveIt league vote
was increased in every assembly dis
trict in San Francisco The increase OF
the vote for good government and a
clean republican party ranged from 40
per cent TO 100 per cent throughout the
city. But the republicans were out

carrying out his experiments in aerial
navigation and TO administer them
partly in Zeppelin's behalf and also to
treat them as a national fund for gen

pIaud Exhibition of Mastery

Flight Continues Three Minutes
and FOrty=fOur Seconds
Without Mishap

LIE MANS, France, Aug. 11.-This
evening Wilbur Wright of Dayton, O.,
made the longest and most success
full flight of the series of aeroplane
trials which he is conducting here,
remaining in the air minutes and "A
seconds. The machine circled the
field three times at the rate of SO
miles an hour.
On passing a grandstand Wright
gracefully descended until within
speaking distance of the spectators,
who wildly applauded his exhibition
OF mastery over the aeroplane. after
which he scared like bird to new
heights and continued his flight until
reaching the starting point. where he
finally gently landed.
WRIGHT Is CONFIDENT
Wright says he does not expect to
make an official flight of so kilometers
Cabout 80 miles) until later in the
month, but he is so subject to change
of mind he may decide TO summon the
committee to attempt this great feat
al any time. He said today that he was
perfectly confident that he could effect
this condition for the sale of his patent
whatever day he wished and his French
associates now b!indly believe every
word he says.
As evidence of the interest that is
being taken in Wright's eA Aperiments
crowd Of 5000 persons, including
many women, patiently waited through
out the day until he took his machine
for sail.
The aeroplane scared down the course
and then abruptly, almost recklessIy
swooped and turned and came ma
jestically down the field, following the
lines of trees, after which il returned
TO the front Of the grandstand
LANDS MACHINE WITH EASE
With admirable ease and precision the
aeroplane here descended TO a lower
level. seemingly to drop the specta-
tors polite aerial courtesy. Then ii
rose again and resumed its trip, de-
scribing zigZags here and there until
il completed three circles of the course
Finally il came to the ground at the
starting point and Wright again was
received with applause. There was
scarcely vestige of breeze while the
fight was taking place.
After the demonstration Wright said.

Make Packey Mcfarland Fav0r-
lite in Betting Over Jimmy
Britt.

SAN FRANCISCO, April IA larg
delegation of fight followers visited
Packey M~cFarland's camp at Millett's
yesterday, and after the crowd re-
turned to town Mcfarland jumped into
favoritism for his contest with Britt
next Saturday. Money was offered at
10 to 8 with the Chicagoan on the
long end.
The showing made by Mcfarland
convinced the large gathering that he
is a dangerous opponent for the local
lightweight. Packey went four rounds
with Dick Cullen, and when time was
up Cullen was almost ready to go to
the floor. Mcfarland Their took on Pat
Kinneally, and after he had thumped
him for three rounds Manager Gilmore
called a halt to save Pat from further
punishment.
Referee Jack Welsh was a visitor at
Millett's and talked over the rules with
Mcfarland. Today Welsh will visit
Britt's camp and have a confab with
Jimmy. PackeY weighs 1876 pounds.
Shannon's gymnasium was too small
for the crowd which went over to San
Rafael to see Britt. Britt put a lot of
ginger in his work with Eddie Madsen
and Sailor Chapman, with each of
whom he spared three rounds. These
bouts, and also the rough and tumble
work with Tiv Kreling kept the crowd
shouting. Britt tipped the scales at
1861 pounds.

The Shelters should hover near the top
all season."
Moses N. Frank. Baltimore-"The
fact that Ned Hanlon will give his per-
sonal attention to the team should
make the Orioles formidable contenders
for the bunting"
Hugh Duffy, Providence-"We're not
shouting much these days, but the
Grays will be there when the bell
rings
George Smith, Buffalo-'The Bisons
will be as strong as last season. With
a good start they should vim

that they'll show the other clubs some
