FAST SWfMMING ACROSS
 GOLDEN GATE

San Francisco, July 24.-Walter Pomeroy and George Bond, members of the Olympic Club, yesterday swam across the Golden Gate just at the en- trance of the harbor in phenomenal time. Pomeroy crossed the mile of rough water in 24 minutes 56 seconds, while Bonds time was 28 minutes. Arthur Cavill, the Australian swim mer, who is the only other man that eyerf succeeded in accomplishing the feat, required hour and IS minutes. Pomroy and Bond studied the tides for weeks and aided by the advice of the life saving crew at Baker s Beach station, managed to cross in a direct line at slack water. Both men finished in perfect condition and ap- parently unwearied. Pomeroy used an overarm side stroke, as did Bond, except for about quarter of a mile at the finish

NO BOND LESS THAN
 $25 IN ASSAULT CASES

Judge Wilder issued order to the police from the bench in the city court today to accept no bond of less than S25 in assault cases hereafter
 It is customary for the police to exact that sum. At times smaller bail has been fixed. Policemen Lar kin and Dooley arrested Edward Me Nally of 925 East Main street for >as- saulting George Suak, of Gilbert street. Suak lost a pair of shoes in the melee. Dr. McGovern stitched up a gash in the victims lip at the emergency hospital.
 McNally got out of police head quarters when friends posted a cash bond of $15, and today he did not appear for trial The bond was for feited and Judge Wilder at once is- sued instructions not to accept a bond so small for assault charges in the future.

Reciprocity Bill May Run Against
 Snag in Canada

Ottawa, July 24-While the passage by the American congress, Saturday, of the Canadian reciprocity bill will aid the cause of the Liberal leaders who are trying to secure it's approval by parliament, the fight promises to be bitter. The forces which tried to kill the measure in Washington have now transferred their activities to Ot- tawa and the opponents insist that the government will be blocked at every point.
 The Conservatives who want to kill the bill, aided by anti-reciprocity Lib- erals, were insisting, to-day, that they would talk the measure to death.'
 The lieutenants of the premier, however, say the bill, as approved by congress, will be adopted by parlia- ment, although just when the vote will be reported is hard to tell.

Frank Lalley played second base Tn his old time form, and figured in fast double play, also made two three baggers. Al Eagan, Al Hamilton, and Ken Murphy turned off some sharp fielding stunts. Bill Conway made. home run and Bert Tucker was there with a three bagger. Conway stole home in the ninth, and Brothwell came along with a corking triple and broke up the game. Eddie B. Rowe caught the first three innings, but re- ceived a severe cut over his eye from a rapid ball thrown by Hamilton, ana was forced to retire. Bill Wright and George Chambers did some great bat ting. Harry Hefferan played very fast game for Danbury, and Sig Mooney played a star game at third base He also batted in excellent form. Owen Toolen umpired in an impartial fashion and gave satisfac- tion. The roofing of "Cooney Island" Jones was distinctive feature of the game.
 This was the second game of what was to have been series, but as the Bridgeport boys won the first contest week ago by a score of F to 15, they were declared winners. The winning team will be the guests of the losers at dinner to be given at Leh- mann's next Saturday night.
