The open stake run at Ingleside

The hares were exceptionally strong
and long races were the rule. The
betting was brisk throughout the after
noon and the favorites held their own
in the individual betting. Tom Finn
showed fine form, but severe racing
took the edge off his speed and he was
beaten after a hard run by Black
Bird. The latter is very clever per-
former. Teddy Blue, John Esbee's big

FOLEY MAKES GREAT
FIGHT FOR TITLE
Puts Up Magnificent Battle
Against McL0ughIfn, but
Is Beaten by Rally
BY GRANT SMITH

Two of the three bay counties cham
pionship titles were disposed of yester-
day on the Golden Gate park tennis
courts. Maurice Mclaughlin wrested
the. senior singles title from Charles
Foley and William Johnston won the
junior singles championship, beating
Ellie FottrelI in the finals. The chal-
lenge match in the doubles was post
poned after three sets had been played.
with Mclaughlin and James in the lead,
two sets to one,
Charles Foley, holder of the singles
championship, came within an ace of
springing the biggest surprise in years,
when he hooked up with Maurice Nc
Loughlin in the challenge match. The
match was virtually conceded to Nc
Loughlin, butt only a rally when he
locke to be beaten enabled him to pull
out by the narrowest of margins. The
score in his favor was 10-12, 6-1,
6-S, 6-1. St.
Foley played the same game that
made him stand head and shoulders
above anybody on the coast five or
six years ago. He "came back with
a vengeance and his wonderful show
ing was not due to poor playing on
McLOughlin's part, as the latter was at
his best.
F'oley's form in recent years has been
most lndlnerent, due mostly TO lack
of practice. He played a beautiful
game yesterday, fighting for the net
on all occasions and cutting off Nc
Loughlin's speedy drives in clever
fashion.
With the score standing two sets
all and As Foley broke in on Nc
Loughlin's service for the first time
during the fifth set and took the lead
at 81. He had not dropped game
on service in this set and he looked
to have grand chance to retain the
title and score his third and last win
on the cup. Mclaughlin put up a
great finish. evening up the score at
SIS, and finally winning the set. SIS.
The final match of the junior singles
did not prove as much of a contest
as was expected. Junior Coast Cham
pion William Johnston beat Ellie Fott-
rell in straight sets, the score being,
6-4 6-1, 12-10.
In the challenge match of the doubles
Foley and Reuben Hunt, holders, won
the first set. 6-2, and lost the second

Baseball Notes

The fans should not forget the benefit for the
Seals on the local diamond tomorrow afternoon
The team which will oppose San Francisco viii
be made up of the best busbers throughout the
state. They are all very anxious to show what
they can do, and 80 Of them will show
up in the hope of getting into the game. The
regular semi-lineup will be sent against the
brush performers. In addition there will be field
contests, including long hitting, accurate throw
ing, bunting and running TO the bases and the
like. The proceeds of the game will be divided
among the San Francisco ball players, so it's up
10 all the fans who to help as much as pos
sible Tickets are % cents.
Some admiring fan sent Melchoir a handsome
bouquet of flowers when he came up to the bat
in the first inning. The bouquet proved to be a
jlnx, for Mel went through the game without
getting hit.

u. c. Will HAVE
Slight ADVANTAGE
Change of Fields viii Make
Little Difference 10 the
Stanford Team
BY WILLIAM UNMAcK

Much is heard of the great dis
advantage that the stanford team Will
be under Saturday by PLAYING the cali
fornia team on dirt field. The Car
dinaI team all through the season has
played on a fast turfed field. and 1t Is
asserted that the going on the. dirt
field will be hard for the PaIo AIlO
team.
Last year the California team played
at Stanford on the turfed field and tne
change from the heavy sandy surracs
at Berkeley to the fast turf was GER
tainly in favor of the blue and gold
men. This year. however. the game Is
to be played at Berkeley. where tne
field is not turfed. and here again the
California team will have the advant-
age of knowing Just how the ball acts
on the rebound from the dirt SURFACE.
This is the only advantage that there
is in the difference of the fields. unless
the day is wet and the ground partcu-
larly muddy and heavy. On turred
field the ball rebounds quicker than lL
does on the dirt surface. The rebound
of the ball from the turf is sharp and
quick and can be judged better than
from a dirt surface. The residence OF
the ball on a sandy surface is some
what deadened and the ball can not be
depended upon as on turf The entlre
difference is so slight LnaI 10 Weil
trained athletes il will not be nOticea-
BILE. but changing from dirt TO turf IS
another proposition and the team that
is trained on the dirt and plays on the
turf always will have an advantage
greater than in the reverse case,
though both are slight.
The accident to Kern Of Stanford Sat
urday when this player fractured his
leg is the first really serious accident
on the local football fields this year
The accident was the result of miss
kick" Saturday was day of acct
dents for both varsities. and 1t Is highly
improbable that either Elliott or Swartz
of California will be able to play on
Saturday.
The betting on the varsity game next
Saturday is quoted at 10 to s. with Cal
ifornia the favorite But an even
money bet would be nearer the mark,
Judging by the form shown by both
teams The relative scores OF the two
teams are not worth a fig in judging
the ability of the teams. but from
close observation of the actual playing
of the teams the difference In the abil-
ity of the two teams is hardly noticea-
BILE. It's a tossup.
Referee J. Jenkinson OF Vancouver
is expected 10 arrive in Berkeley to-
day. He will confer with Coach
Schaeffer of California and before the
game will go to Stanford and have
talk with Coach Presley OF the Cardinal
team.

THE DEATH OF JOHNSON
While Mystery May Surround 1t,
There Is No Evidence.

Buxton, Ia. Jan. 24.-.Considerable
mystery surrounds the death OF Ned
Johnson, colored. who was burned in
/ house at this place early Monday
morning. The house was occupied by
one Mrs. Ross who went to. MARSHALL
town last week to visit. She did not
,lose her house during her absence
put permitted it to remain open, The
place has long had an unsavory repu.
tation. The resort has been the sub
-ject OF several grand jury investiga.
tions but at no time was the county
attorney able to get any direct evil
.dence against the place, Rumor
charged that intoxicants were being
handled uhere. 1t is said that the
shack" had been made the target OF
open threats. and it Is suggested that
che fire was OF an incendfary. origin
in the supposed absence Of occupants.
The house was occupied Sunday by
a number of people who are supposed
to have had intoxicants at the place.
Johnson was seen at the house and
about the neighborhood. No one saw
him enter the house however The
FIRE was discovered about midnight
and the entire building was wrapped
in flames when the alarm was sound
ed and residents began gathering
about the place and it was not pos
sible for any one to enter the build
ing to save any of the contents. It
vas a story and half house and
burned rapidly being entirely con-
sumed. The incinerated body was
discovered by "a passerby going to
work Monday morning He was at.
5racted to the spot by a number of
logs fussing over something in the
leap of hot ashes. On investigation

FOR HIGH PRICES
Secretary Wilson Testifies in
Foodstuff Inquiry. 4
RETURN TO FARM is REMEDY
Head Of Agricultural Department De-
fciares American Farm Products
Are Cheaper Abroad Than III
In This Country. 3.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Secretary Of
Agriculture Wilson in his testimony
before the congressional committee
which is investigating the rise in the
price of foodstuffs in the District of
Columbia declared that American
farm products are sold cheaper abroad
than they are in this country, .
He intimated that the trusts we're
to blame, but declined to go into any
lengthy explanation because the in
vestigation which he is conducting
has not yet been completed. He also
blamed the high cost of living to this,
together with the exorbitant profits
demanded by the retail dealers. He
prescribed as one remedy for the
evil, a return to the farm. More farm.
ers, and more Intelligent farming, he
declared, would greatly remedy con-
ditions. -,s q. .--tt ,...a. IL.
Hill Adds His Testimony.
James J. Hill, president of the
Great Northern railroad, also added
the value of his testimony to the in
vestigation in an interview in which
he enthusiastically declared that the
problem was not so much, the high
cost of living as of the cost of high
living"
The agricultural department will to.
day issue its bulletin upon the In
crease in the supply of cattle on the
ranges. 1t is understood that these
figures will confirm information COM

try that there is unprecedented pros

country.
... Meat Supply Is JuggIed.

the present high prices of meat prod

manipulation by combinations in con.

mand.
The figures that the secretary of ag.
riculture has collected thus far

The increase in the retail price of

greater relatively than the increase
in the wholesale price. When the

retailer has, passed the raise along
to the customer with little more
