PUBLIC FUNCTIONS END
No More General Invitations
Will Be Accepted for Officers

The officers of the fleet declare that
when they leave San Francisco Mon
day morning it will be with memories
of the most lavish entertainment they
ever experienced in any port. The
functions ahead on the northern cruise
will bring their period of official So
cial activity to close, for upon the
return of the ships scheduled to dock
here the work of preparation for the
cruise around the world will require
strict attention. Accordingly no gen
cal invitations to the fleets officers
will be accepted, for it is desired that
the people of San Francisco should not
be further taxed for their entertain
ment. Officers, of course, will be at
liberty to accept personal invitations
at such times as their duty will per-
nit, but will not be detailed to at
tend functions for which general invi-
tations to their ships are issued. That
practice is followed only during the
period of official entertaining now
drawing to a close.

MEN JOYOUS IN
PACIFIC FLEET
Triple Glory Is Won by Day.
toms Handsome ArmOred
Cruisers

The officers and men of the Pacific
fleet were happy yesterday in the
bright light of unexpected glory Even
the handsome armored cruisers seemed
to puff themselves out to more heroic
proportions and to assume a kindly air
of condescension toward the battleships
which until yesterday had the center of
the stage. In the first place the West
Virginia was the first flagship and en-
titled, by virtue of Admiral Daytons
seniority, to fly the blue pennant. That
was joy No. /.
At breakfast the Pacific fleet learned
that the target trophy for turret ships
had been won by their own Maryland
and that the trophy pennant, that the
battleship Illinois had been Haunting in
their faces would soon f1utter above the
armored cruiser.
JOY No. 3 was when the trophy and
pennant were ordered transferred. This
was done yesterday afternoon. Al
though the results in the other classes
have not been announced, it is certain
that all the target trophies for this year
will go to the Pacific fleet. In the
cruiser class the Albany is conceded to
be far ahead of all other ships. The
Wilmington on the Asiatic station is
counted the certain winner in the gum
boat class, and the Perry in the torpedo
class.
What filled the cup to overfiowing
was an announcement, unofficial, but on
undoubted authority, that the cruiser
South Dakota, which left Thursday on
it's final acceptance trial, had averaged
22.36 on its four hour endurance run
and 20.36 in a "a hour run. This is
the best speed made by any of the
cruisers and will insure the new
cruiser a hearty welcome when, after
final acceptance, it is formally assigned
to the Pacific fleet

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

SACRAMENTO, May 15.-AlI Sac
ramento turned out tonight to welcome
the fourth torpedo f1otilla, which came
up the Sacramento river today from
San Francisco and cast anchor in front
of the city. 1t was the first time in
the history of the city that such an
array Of sea going vessels had ap-
peared here, and thousands of people
lined the banks of the river to bid
them welcome. AS soon as the torpedo
boat destroyer Preble, the flagship of
the fleet, cast anchor off the foot of K
street Mayor Clinton L. White went
aboard and greeted Lieutenant F. N.
Freeman, its commander. The mayor
was warmly received and he bid the
officers and enlisted men of the fleet
welcome to the city.
The fleet that now honors Sacra-
mento is composed Of five vessels In
addition to the Prebfe the vessels are
the torpedo boat destroyer Perry,
Larimer, and the following torpedo
boats: The Fox, Lieutenant M S.
Davis; Farragut, Lieutenant w. Ber-
thoff;. and the Davis, Ensign E. A.

MES of the militia paraded the streets
tonight before, perhaps. the largest
crowd that ever witnessed a parade
here. The streets along the line of
march were almost impossible, so
anxious were the people to see the
sailor boys. The officers of the fleet
were rendered an informal reception
at the Sutter club, and the enlisted men
were entertained at various theaters.
The officers report a successful trip
up the river. They came under slow
speed, as they were not acquainted
with the channel They report how
ever, that they could have made the
trip in half the time had they desired.

NAVY is WINNER
OF BASEBALL CUP
Sailors End the Championship
Series at Preside With
4 to 2 Victory

The last hold on claim to the base
ball Championship of Uncle Sans fight
ing service was wrested from the hands
of the soldiers OF the Preside yester-
day when the sailors again admins
tered a beating to the picked team of
the army, winning the third and de-
Gliding game of the series, score 4 to 2.
with the sun sinking behind the
BLUFFS overlooking the Golden gate, at
the close of the ninth inning of the
best game OF the series, the men from
the battleship, wildly elated at their
victory, gathered IN the natural stad-
ium that forms the ball park and with
cheer after cheer given by both army
and navy received a magnificent cup
presented by the fleet committee.
From the steps Of an automobile
that had been driven up in front of the
grand stand Captain Cohn in behalf of
the sailors thanked the feet athletic
committee and the people of San Fran
cisco both for the trophy and for the
treatment accorded the men Of his team,
and the cup was then borne away in
triumph IN the auto by Athletic Lieu
tenant Weaver and many of the
sailor team as could pile into the ton
neau.
The grand finale marked the close OF
one Of the most exciting and hottest
matches ever contested in any branch
of athletics between the army and
navy. It's equal was never. seen on
this coast, and 1t is doubtful if more
intense interest was ever seen dis
played on any other. Although the
sailors won all the way they fought
hard for their victory and gained on
I IL, r,f
their opposition. The game yesterday
was not won until the last half Of the
last inning and the result was at all
times in doubt. BY coming out ahead
the feet team made the fourth game,
which was scheduled for to-day. un-
necessary, having won both other con-
tests and having a majority Of the
games to their credit without the army
winning once.
For the army Frink, the slabster who
so nearly pitched his team to victory in
mound and opposed to him was Nc
Crary, a blonde twirler from the battle
ship Nebraska. Frink pitched the bet
ter ball and deserved to win, although
the line of curves dished UP by Nc
Crary would go in any mans league.
Three costly errors, each by the army
catcher and shortstop, lost the game,
being responsible Tor all four OF the
navy's runs. Frink struck out ten
men, allowed six hits and fielded his
position perfectly, besides securing a
hit for himself McCrary retired nine
| batsmen by the strikeout route and
was touched up for nine safeties. Dur
l ing all of the nine innings neither
/ pitcher passed a man on four balls, but
McCrary managed to hit three bats
men in the ribs.
