Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

SACRAMENTO. July S.-MeIchoir's
long drive into left for three bags put
marker on the San Francisco score
sheet in the fifth inning that proved
just enough to beat the Senator'S to-
day. Claude Berry had the pinch
bingle that gave the Seal a life TO the
plate. 1t was not a hit that Berry
made, but it was a high slow bounder
down the third line that enabled the
runner TO beat Jansing's toss to the
plate. Danny Long saw it all from
the grandstand.
"Caek" Henley for the second time
this week shut out the Senator'S. but
it was tossup until MeIchOir con
tributed. The Seal HEAVIER kept most
of the chances in the air. and was a
puzzle TO every Senator with the ex-
eeptiOn of Steamer" Flanagan who
hammered out three pretty singles but
all coming with no one on bases. The
game started out like a battle OF
mound jewellers, with Baum in fine
shape and both warriors getting the
best OF support. Not a Senator got
more than half way around. but the
Seals came near grabbing a run in
the fourth Zeider put Texas Lacquer
over second. was hunted a base BY
Mohler and at once stole third. Neither
Tenant nor Bodie could connect with
Baum and the side went out.
The crippled condition Of lansing.

handicap on the law makers. He had
an infield hit to Moh1er beaten out had
he been able 20 work up the motive

On all sides one hears this sentence re-echoed.
1t seems 10 be the slogan of the great battle
between Ketchel and Papke at the Mission street

Justify the sentiment. The fans seem to have
this belief safely slowed away. and there is nothing
IN the winds to make them change their predic-

fair to be bitter. Surveys nave been

line between Pueblo and Durango, at
which point the U. P. is to connect

NO STATEHOOD BEFORE
next GENERAL ELECTION

Washington, Jan. 16.-Nunerods
delegations from New Mexico and Ar
izona, which have come here to press
their claims for statehood for these
territories, have learned that the SEN
ate leaders do not intend 20 permit
a statehood bill to pass at the present
session of congress. This decision was
reached at an informal conference of
senate leaders. 1t was said that not
enough time remains of this congress
to enact necessary legislation, and
that statehood measures invariably
provoke prolonged discussion.
An additional reason for the senate
leaders being against the proposition
is the fact that members who have
discussed the qualifications of these
territories, differ widely as to the

stated that reports received by them

According to a Glenwood dispatch
the wreck was caused by the failure
of Engineer Olson, of the passenger

Gated by his watch. When nearing
Dotsero, Olson looked at his watch
and read the time as 9.04 p. M. 1t was
then 9.05. Thinking he had time to
make the next siding below Dotsero
he pulled open the throttle and was
