The annual Indoor track meet of Company I, First Iteglment, Pennsylvania National Guard, held here tonight, ended in a riot that was precipitated by an attack made by Melvln Sheppard, of the Irish-American Athletic Club, New York, upon Guy Has kins. of the University of Pennsylvania, In the course of a 1000-yard race, which was the feature of the meet. Haskins, the intercollegiate Kalf-mile and mile phampion, defeated Sheppard recently in this city. Tonight the men had completed six laps when Haskins made an effort to pass Sheppard. who had taken the lead early in the race. The men jostled at ono of the turns, and when Haskins started to go by the New York runner, the latter seized Haskins and deliberately threw him to the floof. Haskins' friends then rushed Sheppard and punched and kicked him. Friends of Sheppard ran in, and for a moment there was danger of a free fight. It required the efforts of a dozn policemen to restore ordor. This evening George Orton, who was referee. disqualified Sheppard- and awarded the race to Haskins. Sheppard said afterward that his act arus that of a tired and Irritated man, and that he regretted his conduct. HOPPE TWICE BEATS CCTLER Finds Boston Bllliardist In Bad Form and Bad Luck.

BENEFIT FOR FORMER BOXER Mat and Ring: Contests Please Large Crowd at Merrill's Hall. Merrill's hall was comfortably filled with boxing and wrestling enthusiasts last night at the benefit entertainment for Jack Hill, a former prizefighter, whose health makes it necessary for him to go to a drier climate. The five boxing bouts were friendly matches and were not Intended to be grueling contests. ' A couple of the bouts, while they were lack' Ing in science, were as funny1 as a Punch and Judy show. By far the best contest of the night . was the wrestling match between Ed Kennedy, Portland's favorite first base man, and "Strangler" Smith. The first fall went to Kennedy In 8 minutes and tS seconds, and was as pretty a mat con test as has been witnessed In Portland. The second fall went to Smith in, accord ance with an agreement that even a near fall should count. Smith was considera bly lighter than Kennedy, and because of his willingness to wrestle pleased the crowd. After the match was over Smith challenged Kennedy to a wrestling match to take place in three weeks, which was accepted. "Mysterious" Billy Smith and Charles Yost got together In a friendly bout. which at" times assumed the hue of bur lesque. Smith showed that he had not forgotten any of the tricks of the game by reason of his long absence from the ring. The others who participated were the Sullivan brothers. York and Daly, and iBundy and Murphy. Joe Thompson, nf the Grand Theater, contributed a song to fill out the programme. The entertain meat netted about $300.

LAST CHANCE AT COLVMBLVS If Hornets Lose Today, Leaders Have an Unbroken String. Fnusual Interest attaches to today's Iraguo game In association football circles because a victory for the Columbias will mean that the champions will have gone through the season without allowing even a tie match. Jealous of the unexpected success of their rivals, the Hornets have slated the strongest eleven they can tlnd. and have rearranged their men In one or two places to balance the eleven better. Kickoff will be at the baseball grounds at 3 o'clock. Hornets and Columbias have met twice before this season, the latter winning lioth games, in the first case by 2 to 0, in tho second by 4 to 3.

POSTPONEMENT" FOR DAY Jerome Tries to Get Xames, but Lit tleton Refuses and Exposes the. Prosecution's Game Trial Will End "ext Week. NEW YORK, Jan. 24. The blinding snowstorm which swept New York today caused the first serious interruption of the second Thaw trial. It put an embargo on practically all the shipping in the lower bav and prevented the big steamer Adriatic from reaching her dock. On board the liner are four physicians and a, trained nurse from Europe who, Mr. Littleton declared in court, are Important witnesses for the defense and whose testi mony he desires to place upon the record, before propounding hypothetical ques tions to the three experts who will swear that, when Harry K. Thaw shot and killed White, he was so mentally deficient that he did not know the nature or qual ity of his act or that the act was wrong. The request for An adjournment until Monday, made upon the opening of court, was granted by Justice Dowling. Finish Trial Next AVeek. Mr. Littleton promised to have the long hvDothetical Question ready immediately after his few remaining witnesses of fact have testified on Monday and, unless Mr. Jerome's cross-examination of the ex perts is unexpectedly long, the defense will rest on Monday. The prosecution will proceed on Tuesday with its rebuttal case and should not occupy more than a day and a half. The sur-rebuttal by the defense will be brief and, in spite of to day's delay the case should end by Friday or Saturday of next weeK. One of Jerome's Little Tricks. District Attorney Jerome said he would not oppose the adjournment providing Mr. Littleton would furnish him tne names of the witnesses who are arriving. Mr. Littleton objected, but Justice Dowl ing said the request was reasonable. Mr. Littleton said it had been his ex perience that whenever the District At torney knew of the arrival of any wit nesses, he had his people meet them with subpenas and subjected them, to a long examination. "I do not Intend," he added, "that he shall know my case before It Is pre sented here in court. After some hot discussion, Mr. Jerome waived the point. Mr. Littleton said the defense undoubtedly will conclude its case Mjonday. with a fee of $10 was adopted at the be ginning of the afternoon session. Resolu tions expressing sympathy with H. W. Campbell, of Lincoln, Neb., In his 111- ness. and endorsing dry farming insti tutes, were adopted. A resolution chang ing the name of the organization to "The Arid Fanning Congress" was presented and referred. In conflict with the theory expressed yesterday that dry farming could not be successful on a farm of 160 acres was the opinion given today by I. H. Grace, a practical farmer of Juab County, Utah. The average man with four horses, he said, can handle 80 acres a season, leaving the other 80 fallow. The exceptional man may cultivate 100 acres properly and therefore needs a farm of 200 acres. Giving data from his experience, Mr. Grace said the average cost of producing a wheat crop on his dry land was $6,085 an acre, or 27 cents a bushel. Hauling water for stock adds 20 per cent to the cost of dry farming, hence wells ate of the greatest value. Professor J. C. Hogenson, agronomist of the Utah Agricultural College, was the other speaker of the afternoon. RUEF GETS MORE TIME Gotch Defeats Soloman. . TJTICA, N. Y., Jan. 24. Frank Gotch, the American wrestling champion, de feated Albert Soloman, of Buffalo, here tonight in a fast match. Gotch took two straight falls. Chit-Chat of Sporting World BY WILL G. MAC RAE. CHEAP selling plater is due to r win the $10,000 Burns handicap. Handlcapper Nothausen has made this sure by making pack-horses out of the horses of class that are entered in the race. The Los Angeles City Council has placed a ban on selling tips on the races. If the city dads would go a step further and put the touts on the rock pile, it would ' complete a good work. The Portland Hunt Club will hold Its regular monthly cross-country run this afternoon. The start will be from the residence of Mrs. J. W. Beakey, and E. T. Chase, the M. F. H., will send the riders away at 2:30. Billy Papke. the Illinois thunder bolt, jolted Walter Stanton into dream land in less than four rounds the other night in Boston. Papke is bound to make some of the big fellows in the mlddle-weignt division uneasy. Stanford University will have 164 students in athletic training soon. 1 et Trainer Moulton says the outlook is not bright and he places the blame on the game of rugby. There is some talk of Pitcher Happy Hogan and Outfielder Jimmy Smith jumping the Oakland team and playing with the Fresno outlaws. This will give Hogan and Smith a chance to take part in a little hold-up game of their own, without fear of breaking the law. According to a New York paper, riding licenses will not be issued to jockeys Knapp, Mountlan, Radtke, Lynch. Delaby and J. Mclntyre. It will not hurt racing to chase such boys as Mclntyre out of the game. Neither will any one grieve over the canning of Radtke. , but It would be -a shame to set Eddy Lynch down. Henry Ach Engaged lor Defense, but Is Busy in Los Angeles. . SAN FRANCTSCO, Jan. 24; Superior Judge Lawlor this afternoon, upon the showing made by Senator Keane, that arrangements for counsel had not yet been completed, granted Abraham Ruef a further extension of time and continued the matter of fixing the date of Ruef's trial until next Tuesday morning. Keane announced that Henry Ach had been retained to defend Ruef, but that he was now engaged in a case in Los Angeles which would occupy his time for several days. District Attorney Langdon personally represented his office and offered no ob jection to the continuance. Judge Lawlor, at Langdon's instance, ordered that a bench warrant issue for Alexander Lathan, when that witness failed to answer when his name was called in court and fixed his bail at $2000. Lathan was Ruef's chauffeur at the time Ruef, according to the allegations of the prosecution, drove to the United Rail roads offices in May, 1906, end is alleged to have received from Tirey L. Ford, gen eral counsel, $50,000 of the alleged bribe money for the passage of the trolley franchise. Lathan Is one of the prosecution's most important witnesses and disappeared shortly before the first trial of Ford. He returned voluntarily about 10 days ago, and at the request of the prosecution, was placed under the order of the court. Abraham Ruef and ex-Mayor Schmitz were the only defendants in the gas brib ery cases who were present in Judge Lawlor's court this morning. Counsel representing the other defendants, Eugene de Sabla, John Martin and Frank Drum, consented to a continuance until February 7, for the case to be set. Ruef and Schmitz also appeared in Judge Dunne's court, when the cases of the Parkside Trolley Railway promoters, accused of attempted bribery, came up for decision on the demurrer to the com plaint. William I. Brobeck. Joseph E. Green and G. Umbsen were represented by an attorney, who agreed to a contin uance for a week. The case of Theodore V. Halsey, former agent of the Pacific States Telephone & Telegraph Company, accused of brtbery was also called In Judge Dunne's court. Halsey's attorney stated that his client was still too feeble to stand trial, and his statement was confirmed by the tes timony of Dr. J. C. Morrison. Judge Dunne then ordered & continuance of two weeks. DIAMOND-MAKER A FRAUD MAX SATS HE BOUGHT ALLEGED ARTIFICIAL GEMS. Surprising Tnrn to Pretended Dis covery Stones Identified by Their Former Owner. PARIS. Jan. 24. There was a sensa tional development tonight in the case of Henri Lemoine, the 'diamond-maker," which was being heard before an exam ining magistrate. M. de Haan. a dia mond merchant, testified that several of the diamonds which Lemoine gave to Sir Julius Wernher, of the De Beers Min ing Company, alleging them to have been manufactured, had been sold to Mme. Lemoine by De Haan. The witness easily selected these stones from a lot that were produced in court tonight. Another merchant who Is said to have sold diamonds to Mme. Lemoine will be called tomorrow to examine the Wernher stones. Immediately after the disclosure, tonight the president of the Jewelers' Association of France lodged a complaint of fraud against Lemoine. RUSSIA THINKS WAR NEAR Newspaper Prints Various Articles on the Situation. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 24. The rela tions between the United States and Japan are receiving considerable atten tion. Several St Petersburg newspapers published recently two or three series of articles which express the opinion that war between those two countries Is cer tain to come. The writers, however. show little familiarity with political con ditions In the United States and the pres ent status of the negotiations between that country and Japan. A writer In the Russ, who recently an nounced the cession of Nakotah Bay, on the Siberian Coast, to the United States, to be used as a base for the battleship squadron under Rear-Admiral Evans, follows this statement with a series of diplomatic relations concerning the ne gotiations for a Russo-American offens ive and defensive alliance. He avers that the chief obstacle to the conclusion of such a treaty is the naval weakness of Russia and says that the construction of a fleet of torpedo-boats and fast cruisers would exert a favorable influence on the negotiations. This is the reason that Emperor Nicholas is so in sistent upon an expansive naval pro gramme. Ambassador Riddle, in interviews -published, has done much to discredit ru mors of this kind. He has pointed out that the negotiations between Japan and the United States are proceeding satis factorily and are approaching a success ful conclusion. Did Not Oppose Army Budget. PARIS, Jan. 24. The Japanese Am bassador, Baron Kurino, has Issued a statement denying that the recent resig nations from the Japanese cabinet of the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Communications' were due to opposition to the proposed military appropriation. He declared that the only divergence of views was between the two cabinet officers themselves. Sketches Hawaiian Harbors. ' HONOLULU, Jan. 24.
