LONG HEARS FROM
CATCHER WILLIAMS
BacksfOp Says Coast League
Players VIII Be Leaving
South i'm a Few Days

Nick Williams, the popular catcher
of the Seals. and number of other
players of the local club will likely be
in this city some time next week. There
are eight or nine of them playing in the
Imperial Valley league and as the sea-
son there ends soon, the boys can be
expected to arrive home shortly to
start practice for the season of 1910.
Manager Danny Long OF the San
Francisco team received a letter from
Williams yesterday. which was mailed
from CalexicO. Williams said that the
boys were doing well in the Imperial
Valley league. He expected a number
of them to leave for the city about the
end of the week
Pitcher Ed Griffin. Among the other
members of Longs team that are play
ing in the Imperial Valley league are
Tom Tenant. Pitcher Berger. Infielder
Mundorff. ShCrtstOp McArdle, Pitcher
Ames and Catcher Berry.
Long has also heard from Catcher
Carman. The big fellow is in good
shape and great deal is expected from
this youngster.
The Seals will undoubtedly have a
strong lineup again this year. The
loss of Zeider and Browning will be
felt TO some extent. but as a whole
the team is pretty Well intact.
Quite a number of new faces will be
seen this season on the Oakland lineup.
President Walter has heard from most
OF his players, and they will be on the
ground for practice work.
The other clubs in the league are
daily hearing from their men and con-
tracts are coming in regularly.

FIGHTERS DUE IN
CITY TOMORROW
Battling Nelson and WOlgast
Coming Up From Los An
geIes on Same Train

Battling Nelson did. not arrive in
this city last night, as was expected,
but he Will be here tomorrow. On the
same train with the champion will be
the challenger, Wolgast. Both of them
will arrive in this city tomorrow. ac-
cording TO the information Promoter
Sid Hester received last night from
Nelson.
With the fighters on the ground the
fans Will be somewhat relieved. The
fans always like to see the boys close
by, as the promoters can deal with
them in a more definite manner and
with better success.
1t is rather strange coincidence
to have two contending fighters rolling
into town on the same train. Hester
was glad to hear that both men were
due to arrive on the scene. There are
a number of preliminary details which
he wants to settle with both before the
men go into training.
Hesters application for permit to
hold boxing contests in San Mateo
county comes up before the suburban
board today and the local promoter eX-
poets to have his application favorably
passed upon by the San Mateo super
yiSors.
He has gone to considerable expense
win out. He has shown himself to be
one of the gamest promoters that Cali
fornia has known and the businesslike
manner in which he pulls of his shows
has won him many friends among the
followers of the game.
Should Hester be turned down today
by the San Mateo board he will likely
seek new field where he will be well
coined. The Mission club promoter has
been opportuned by the people of Ala
media county to build an arena across
the bay. In way Alameda would be
more accessible than San Mateo, Is the
railroad facilities are better.
However. Hester is going ahead with
his business in San Mateo. He will
hold the Nelson-wolgast fight there if
ne is given the permit.
Nelson has undoubtedly met Wolgast
in the south, and the boys have had a
talk. The appearance OF the fighters
here will stir up interest in the battle.
1t is undoubtedly one of the best cards
that has been offered the fans in many
a day and everybody is predicting a
great fight.
Nelson and Wolgast will come up on
the owl, which leaves Los Angeles this
evening and arrives at Oakland during
the next morning.
Jack Gleason made his depa rture for
the northwest yesterday morning 10
meet jim Jeffries. GleasOn's trip 10
Seattle has great deal of Importance
attached to it, AS it is expected TO go
long way toward settling the dispute
as to where the big fight is TO be held.
1t is expected that Gleason will have
definite announcement to make in a
few days. His little confab with Jef-
fries Is expected to bear some fruits.
The fans are becoming sore" over the
excessive amount of talk about the
battle ground and they hope to know
what is doing soon.
Gleason will also have some baseball
business to transact He will make an
effort to get hold of the Seattle club.

Mexico City, June with tele-

ed or forced to fee, definite informa-
ton is lacking as to the present situa-
ton at Valladolid, Yucatan, the scene
of bloody massacre by Indian insur-
gents several days ago. The govern
ment authorities here today, estimated
the number of killed at 40.
More than 1000 Indians are said to
have been engaged in the attack upon
the town. At last accounts the insur-
gents held Valladolid, having fortified
themselves in the Jail and other build
ings-
About 1000 Federal and state troops
and volunteers are concentrating at
Dsitas, short distance from Vallado-
lid, to march upon the rebels.
General Ignacio Bravo, commander
Of the Tenth military zone, has been
ordered to the scene and will take com
mand.
Reports as to the cause of the out
break conflict. Some say it began
with protest against orders issued by
the civil authorities known as "Jefe
Politico," while others say it was the
result Of drunken spree. 1t appears
to have had some resemblance of or
ganizstion and is said to have been led
by political malcontents. Colonel Bo-
nills Montenegro, formerly at the head
Of the civil government, at Valladolid.
is said TO have been in command of the
raiders.
The first attack was made upon the
buildings where all public offices are
located. After sacking this building,
the rioters turned their attention to
the Jefe Politico. named Regil. The
battle began in the night and it was 2
a. m when the attack was made on the
building where Regil and many other
citizens had taken refuge.
A bloody butchery followed. Regil's
wife left her four children and went to
the assistance of her husband. seeking
by tears and prayers to reach the hearts
Of the Infatuated raiders. Regil was
cut down before her eyes and his body
was hacked to pieces. The wife also
is said to have been murdered, as were
all the men in the building, numbering
about 20. Later the five or six gend-
armes in the town met a similar fate.
The people of the town were terri
fled. Many fled in the direction of
Merida. The mob surged through the
town. crying for blood and pillage.
Victor Died, judge Of the First In

Among the victims were Florentine
Echaratta, commander of the police;
Jose Maria Hernandez, second in COM
mand; Pedro Hernandez, the mayor

New York Central President Much
Pleased With Settlement.
Washington, June 8. - President
Brown, of the New York Central, was
so pleased at the way in which Presi-
dent Taft treated the railroads in the
present controversy over rates that he
said tonight he would order the re-
sumption of all work on the Central
which he ordered suspended last Fri
day.
This work, it was said at that time,
would require an expenditure of about
IS, 600, 900. 1t had to do with the inn
proving of stations, building new ones,
laying additional tracks, making yard
and roadbed Improvements. The Cen
trail also will permit the Pressed Steel
Car company, Standard Steel Car com
pany and American Steel Car company,
all OF Pittsburg, to go ahead with or
ders given them some time ago for
5000 new freight cars which he esti-
mated would cost about 81, 900 each.
The orders for these cars were can
celled Friday also.

Der About so.
Rome. June 8.--Great apprehension
has been caused again by seismic dis
turbances showing that the zone affect
ed by the earthquake shocks today is q
vast one. embracing practically the
whole of Southern Italy, as well as a
portion of Tuscany and Venitia to the
north.
Some reports estimate the number
Of dead at so, and Of injured at several
hundred 1t is feared that many are
buried in the ruins of buildings thrown
down at Calitri. 1t is said that in
this town half the buildings have been
wrecked and the NUMBER of dead is
above 35.
From many other towns and villages
come stories of fallen homes, death and
suffering. At San Sole, in the pro-
vince Of Potensea, six persons were
killed and five injured. The convicts
in the prison at Bonavento became
panic-stricken and tried to force their
way past the guards, but were over
powered by troops.
The district in which the most seri-
GUS damage occurred extends for only
about so miles about Mount Vulture,
in the province of Avellino.
This region has suffered much in the
past from earthquake shocks and in
1851 800 persons were killed.
The government has taken hold of
the situation with promptitude and al
though the earthquake occurred during
the night military and civil authorities
were soon hard at work giving aid to
the injured, preparing shelter for the
homeless and bending their energies to
the re-establishment of order.

Head of Sugar Trust CONFEDERATION
and Fine is i, Sight.
New York, June 11.-Charles r.
Heike, the white haired secretary of
the American Sugar Refining company,
was convicted last night on one count
Of an indictment charging conspiracy
to defraud the government Of customs
duty on sugar.
Ernest w. Gerbracht, ex-superin-
tendent Of the Williamsburg Brook
lyn) refinery. was convicted on all six
counts.
For James F. Bendernagel, ex-cash-
Ter of the refinery, the jury stood Z to
5 for acquittal. He will be tried
again.
The verdict was announced at 10 80
p. M, after the jurors had deliberated
for IL hours less ID minutes. They
had labored earnestly from time to
time, sending out for transcripts of
the testimony, particularly that refer
ring to Heike. But it was Benderna-
gels case that caused the long session.
Over his fate more than 20 ballots
were taken.
This ends the governments second
attempt to imprison the group of men
responsible for the vast underweigh-
ing frauds to which the so-called trust
virtually has confessed by the restitu-
ton Of more than 1000, 900 in duty.
Heike is the highest official of the
company upon whom blame has been
fixed, and he now faces possible
sentence of two years in the Federal
penitenitary and fine of $40, 900. He
is SO years old and broken in health
and spirit. His counsel, in summing
up, declared repeatedly that prison
term meant nothing less than death.
