In the junior outrigger skiff race Cal-lopy, Cooney and Ocas willrepresent thePioneer Club; F. Bulger and E.

The of-ficers of the day are : Referee, J. T. Bul-livan; starter. W. Thomas; marshal of thecourse, James Cronin ;timers, Dave Wil-liamson, Walter Bliike. James McElroy,Frank Staib and W. B. Hinchman;judges, Adam Schubert, Jo* Laib, JohnKlunder, Richard Calopy, JohnsonKaroy, A. Taylor, E. Scullv, M. Tiernan,Fred Ayers, S. Scovern, M. Collins andWildam Hallett.
Itwas not decided at last evening'smeeting of the rowing committee wherethe championship races willbe held, butit is aimost safe to say that the cham-pionships will be decided over the ElCarapo course in August or September.
The principal event in the regatta willbe the race between the Whitehall boatsfrom Folsom and Vallejo-street wharvesand Meiggs wharf. The entries are theStewart Menzies, sailed by "Old Man"Crowley; the Governor Bndd, sailed by P.Crowlev; the Mose Gunst, sailed by J.Sennett; the Chief Lees, sailed by T.HawKens; the George vV. Root, sailed byW. Fiiz«:erali; the John L. Sullivan,sailed Dy "Tommy" Hayden; the J. M.Shotwell. sailed oy "Mike"Fitzgerald; theR. J. Dobin, sailed by M. Bean; theShenandoah, sailed by James Farreil; theMartin Bulger, sailed by "Tom" Murray;the Delaphene, sailed by T. Lyons; theSenator Fair, sailed by W. Clark; theErin Go Bragb, sailed by W. F.tzgerald;t c Fred P. Callunden, sailed by harryJohnson; and the Volunteer, sailed by S.J. Engel. The course is the usual Corin-thian Yacht Club test, and nhould thewind be favorableahe contest should be aclose one.
At the late regatta at El Carnpo theAriels found thrir expectations ratherruilely shaken. To see three of their petscullers defeated at the very outsut wasgalling and disheartening. It proved agood leison, however, as McCausland,Paul and Paeiau hare been training dili-
gently for toe last two weeks, and are inbetter form. Phelan is now thoroughlyacquainted with his new skiff, and feelssure that he willkeep the others hustling.
The men who willrepresent the dub inthe junior skiff are Andrew Carroll andF. Ballanger, two very promising scullers.It is to be regretted that no provision
for a senior race has been rnaie, an thenew intermediate crew, that won so hand-ilyfrom the Olympics at ElCampo, arevery anxious to line up against the Mid-eets. They intend, however, to continuetraining, and expect to enter for the cham-pionsnip regatta to be held in the latterpart of the year.
The personnel of the junior crew to rep-resent the club in 10-morrow's race is notas yet known, but a gocd strong crew willdoubtless be chosen.
On last Sunday morning over thirty•kiffmen left the different boatbouses.Skiff-rowing is becoming more popularevery day and some lively races are an-ticipated in the next championship re-gatta between juniors and seniors.
The Dolphin boys are highly elated overthe showing their men made in the lastreeatta, and if the interest continues th-ywih have two or three barge crews in thechampionship races.
The Aiameda barge crews dislike theidea of always borrowing a boat to racein, and have decided not to race againuntil they have a oarge of their own.
The Dolphin junior crew willnot rowin to-morrow's regatta, but will enter inthe championship events ;nOctober.
T. J. K -nnedy has just returned from ayachting cruise, and Mr. Hopkins is en-joying a deserved vacation at Santa Cruz.
Alex Pape, the Do.phin crack, is rest-ing prior to training for the club medalrace, which he has won once.
Tne club reeatta willbe held some Sun-day inAugust, and willhave to be rowedin heats owing to the number of entriesreceived.
Those that have signified their intentionof entering are: T. J. Kennedy, AiexPape, William Meyer. Ai Shields, GusPare, T. K. Kunan, W. 0. Patch, W. J.Schumacher, 11. J. Blennerhassett andWillLaib.
Pai c will not have such an easy racenext time, a« all tne entries are traininghard and expect to win.

Mostof them will go up this afternoon or to-morrow and make a two days' stay of it.
Much of the success already foreshad-owed for the Sacramento meet is due tothe untiring efforts of Scott F. Ennis,president of the club there; C. J. At-water, secretary of the race-meet commit-tee; Mr. Woodson of the Record-Union,L. Stewart Upson, Horace Crocker and alew other enthusiasts.
The membership committee of the C. A.C. C. visited the California Cycling Clublast Monday evening and was very cor-dially received.

ROD AND CREEL.Anglers Enjoying Good Sport.
Where to Go for Trout andBass.
During the next weec the streams and'lakes that contain trout and bass will re-
iceive a well-deserved whippmE.Anglers willhave three or four days in
which to enjoy a favorite pastime, andalready many iond lovers of the so-called
Igentle art have taken their departure forparts unknown to all persons exceptingthose who have a predilection for thesport.
In the mountains, within a radios of400 miles of the City, there are innumer-able streams, all of which contain trout ofdifferent varieties.
Devotees of the sport who cannot afforda trip to the McCloud, Klamath and
| Truckee rivers, or an outing on the lakesi that nestle in the Sierra Nevada Moan-! ia ns, can have sport galore within fourjhours' ride of thi*City.
Anglers who have fished the B«>g Pluton,:a stream that empties into the RussianiRiver near Cloverdale, report that goodifly fishing can be counted upon at the|headwaters of the stream. Then there isIthe Pieta, a small creek within twentyiminutes' walk of Pieta station, which can| always be relied upon lor a big basket ofIsmall fishes. There are several veryi ptetty streams within an hour's drive of( Ukiah, where deer are almost as plentifulIait sheep, but the "monarctis of the glen"must not be shot until the 15th inst.,
I when the close season willexpire.The season when black basi can be law-
! fullytaken opened on the Ist, and a rushj of anglers to the Russian River, near'Guerneviile, will occur to-day. The best
Ilures for bass are minnows and small| frogs, but occasionally the black denizens] of the deep poois will take a spoon when!properly presented. There are some veryi excellent pools within one mile ofGuerne-I viile which contain bass t. at will run
\u2666 from one pound to five pounds in weight;but anglers who fish for bass must be en-dowed with patience, otherwise they arecertain to meet with disappointment.
The Supervisors have reappointed Mr.Mogan a deputy game and fish warden.
Itis hoped that Mr. Mogan willprovej to the satisfaction of the centlemen who
appointed him and to the sportsmen and! anglers of this City that he is worthy of
the office. The mere drawing down of asalary each month will not retain him inhis position. He must be out and doing,and there is no better time than the pres-ent for the warden to prove he is the rightman in the right place.
There is a law, and it reads veryjplain,which says that the possession of imma-ture fishes is a misdemeanor. Now, ifMr.Mogan willvisit the several shrimp'
camps on the margin of the bay, northIand south, he can make a record which
willbe appreciated by the people at large,as it is a well-known fact thai the Chinese
Iare rapidly depleting the bay of its smallfi3hes by means of bag nets. The Mongo-lians catch scnrimps, but they never tninkof such a thing us returning the smallfishes, simply because tnev are not mo-lested by the Fish Commissioners.
Tons upon tons of small dried fishes areshipped annually to China lrom this City
j under the very eyes of the commission.1 Any person who doubts this statementjcan pay a visit to Chinatown and satisfyIhimself that the Chinese are ruining the
fishing industry of t:.e bay. How longwillthis continue? Mr. Mosan is now iva position to answer the question. Possi-
Ibly, if he is powerless to act, other menIcan be appointed who willat least make
an attempt at stopping the unlawful cap-ture of Iryof food fishes.
James Chesley and a friend will trytheir luck on Butte Creek to-morrow.Jim has borrowed a basket sufficientlylarge to hold fifty pounds of trout.
At Camming has started for a streamwhich is only known to the expert High-land angler. He willnot divulge the loca-tion.
Oscar Tolle purchased $100 worth oftackle last Thursday and willstart to-dayfor Tahoe. Look out for shipments of"gmelt" fishes.
Salmon are now running in MontereyBay and some good catches are beingniide.
John P. Babcock, chief of the fish pa-trol, and a friend are fishing Big Stonybrook.
General J. H. Dickinson is after the troutof Lake Ta hoe.Iti*said that fly fishingon the Truckee
is good and tuat|good baskets of hsh arebeing caught.
Messrs. Walker and Cooper willtry theircunning or the fishes of Lagunitas Lakeon Monday. Walker has a cast of flieswhich will tempt any trout, at least hesays «o, but Cooper smiles.
George Wright, £ii Marks, H. M.Landesber<-er, S. E. Slade, Judge Hunt,Harry S. Emeric (Fish Commissioner),Ralph Low and T. E. Bean are fishingWebber Lake.
This month's fly-casting contests of the
San Francisco Fly-casting Club will de-cide who shall represent the club at tnegreat N«t:onal fly-casting contests of theChicaeo Fy-casting Club on August 13and 14. On that occasion there will besix events— three flv-castine ani threelure-castint;
—withdiamond medals as the
prizes. San Francisco will b.« repressnteciby the ciub member with the best '97averages, and this is understood to meanMr. Mansfield or Mr. Golcder, though theaverages have not been made up yet andthis month's results must be reckoned inwith the other contesti.

Enzland— To- Morrow's Came.The Philadelphia eleven, now touring
in England, white not so successful hith-erto as we might have hoped, are making
a very creditable showing and puttingtheir most formidable foes on their met-tle. Their initial victory

Courslnsr.Last Sunday Messrs. A. B. Spreckels
and Leaks were among the spectators whowitnessed the coursing, and through thekindness of H. Brennan, whose sister is apart owner of the park, the gentlemenwere shown through the grounds. Theytook qu ite an interest in the slipping ofthe dogs and also in tuemethod employedby the pane managers in turning the haresinto the coursing held, where the dogswere in readme- s for a start.Itis reported that some owners of dogs
have a way of winnicg money in thepools, which should be stopp d asquicklyas possible. The owners or handlers ofsome fast dogs give their charges a gooddrink of water before they are handed tothe slipper for the final run. Of conrse adog that has partaken liberally of watercannot exercise a poor running hare, andthe result is that the men who gamble onthe race and select the dog that is tam-pered witn lose their money, while thosa"in the awim" pocket the cash. Anyman found doing an act of this kindshould be disqualified from running a dogin the park, as itis this Kind of unsports-manlike conduct that ruins good sport.
The old dogs should give spectators anopportunity of witnessing some good rac-ing to-morrow afternoon.

There was a lively scene inDepartment9of the Superior Court yesterday whenthe sale of tbe dru:store belonging to theestate of Henry B. Shaw was called forconfirmation.

SEVERAL QUERIESPUT TO ALLISON
Teller and White Showa Disposition to Be
Inquisitive.
They Want to Know AboutSpirits, Beer, Tea and
the Trusts.
Satisfactory Answers Belnff Given,
Work on the Tariff BUI IsResumed.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., July 2.—Whenthe tar. ff billwas taken up in the Senateto-day White of California, in behalf ofthe minority of the Finance Committee,
asked Allison as to the programme on tea,
beer, the anti-trust amendment and otherimportant questions.
Aliison responded that an amendmentrelating to the increase of the revenue to
be derived from the bill would be broughtinlater in the day. As to other questionsa little more time was desired.
Teller of Colorado inquired what thecommittee or caucus contemplated doingon the question o:decreasing the tax ondistillca spirits, in view of the letter writ-ten by the secretary of the Treasury.
Allison answered that the whole ques-tion of distilled spirits had been goneover. Personally he believed a lower taxwould be productive of greater revenue,but he thought it unwise to go into thecomnlex question in connection with thistariffbill.
Teller said the letter of the Secretary ofthe Treasury ind.cated a desire for legis-lation on this subject. Then the Senatoradded: "Before mis bill is disposed ofIwilldiscuss what should be done in de-creasing the tax on spirits. Iwill showIthat the committee is givine aivay $2,000,-
-000 a month, to the detriment of consum-ers who bear the tax burdens and to thedetriment of honest dealers in distilledspirits."
Consideration of the billthen proceeded.The paragraph relating to nicfeel waschanged, making the rates on nickel ore 3cents per pound on the nickel containediherein;nickel matter, 4cents per pound ;nickel and nickel oxide alloy, etc., 8 centsper pound.
This brought the Senate to the retalia-tory clause, so called, providing thaiwhenever any country pays a bounty onany article, then on importation of that

Gray of Delaware spoke against theamendment, saying be regarded iias open-ing the way to a disregard of our treatyoblieations with at least twoEuropeancountries
—Germany and Austria-Hun-
gary. He re?d the protest of Baron yon
1hielniann; the German Embassador, andB.iron yon Hengel Muher, the AustrianMinister, against the proposed discrimi-natory duty.
Caffery ot Louisiana differed with Mr.Gray, arguing tuat no breach of interna-tional obligations was involved, and thatretaliation of this character was in thenature of self-preservation to which anycountry could resort w:;en its industrieswore threatened by the payment of for-eign export bountie?.
The Senate agreed to the retaliatorysection
—33 ayes to 19 noes.
Areciprocity amendment was then of-ferred as an additional section, and modi-tied so as to require the "'advice and con-sent of the Senaie" tocommercial treaties.
Mills sugeestrd that the Senate andPresident "conld not contract away th«revenue of the Government without theconsent of the House."
Morgan declared himself in favor of th«reciprocity provision as an improvementon abill which contained "enough to as-tonish and almost horrify him," ancwhich was "an open declaration of waragainst the commerce of the world."
Gray also favored the reciprocity sectiona* breaking down somewhat the barrier ofcommercial restriction set up and lettingIn a little free trade and free sunshine.
The reciprocity provision v\as agreed to,four Democratic Senators
—Gray, Harris
of Kansas, Heitfeld and Morgan—
To*tingin it» favor.

Lindsay offered an amendment'to the
reciprocity provision. It authorizes the*President to investigate and elicit a 1 fartsas to restrictions on sales of American to-bacco in for«iya countries, and torenterinto negotiations for all modification orremoval of such restriction-. He ex-plained that itwas intended to reach con-tain regulations in f'ranee and Spain aywhich the importation of American to-bacco was absolutely prohibited excepton Government account.
Allis n intimated that there would b»no objection to the amendment. IfthePresident had not that authority he waswillingto giv9 it to him. •••• .".

WASHINGTON. D. C, July 2.—The :action of the Republican caucus last Rightindeciding to abandon the proposed: tax
'
on tea and the proposed increased tax onbeer and substituting a tax on tran^ac-
jtions in bonds and stocks has giverr an!entirely new turn to tne tariff question.
The abandonment of the proposed; anti- •
trust legislation has especially displeasedthe Democrats, who refuse to be placated
with the retention of the anti-trus.t pro-visions of the present law. \u25a0 They .declare :•\u25a0
that they will introduce anti-trust propo- „sitions themselves, and on these proposi-tions make their political speeches. o ;Itis said to be the intention of the Dem-
ccratic leadeu also to offer free-siiver..-'amendments and perhaps the old incometax provision of the Wilson bill, tauacausing general financial discussion.- -°Mill*is said to be selected to present .the
'
free-silver amendment, and some of h;icolleagues believe itmay be adopted. \u25a0 ••It is stated, however, with great em- \u25a0
phasis on the Republican side that forty.*".three Republican votes and tbe three Goil.Democratic votes of Caffery. Gray and :Lindsay willbe cast solidly a-aihst any-free-silver amendment. Nothing would \u25a0'.be accomDlished by its adoption, as it -.would be promptly rejected by the.con--ference committee, but the Democratsprofess to believe that a silver discussion
'
would be of great political benefit, .' ..-The plan to tax transactions in bonds'
and stocks was adoptei by the. caucusafter a statement from Allison that the .biil as at present framed would tall atleast . $2,000,000: short of producing the.necessary revenue. The stock and bondtax, itis estimated, will furnish $15,000,000 \revenue. Allison will offer tbeamen'l-metit to-morrow. I;provides lor a 5-centtax on each $100 worth of bonds or stock-;'issued and 2 cents on each share sold or
-transferred, mc. udinz all sales on margin. \u25a0
It is specifically provided that Unite 4.States and building association bondsshall be exempt. \u25a0
