Thelv Meeting: Yesterday at San Francisco Failed in the Object Aimed At. Associated Press. San Jose, OaJ.H April 20. Ddlward C. Bald, of the Press Cycling' Club, But falo, N. Y., Is the eenaaiUon of the day In cycling circles. He has placed an other, record to his credit remarka ble performance, In view of the fact that It was made on a "road"' wheel, his raclngr Wheel not "having; arrived from the Evst. His performance yes terday had caused much favorable commorrt on his fine form and on the splendid tTack. The weather was per fect. All San Joseans came with the hope ttat 'their favorites the native sons 'Edwards and Zeljjler, would re deem themselves and uihold their rep utation as champions. But hose who pinned their faliGh on Zetgler reckoned without their licet. EcDwards acquitted himself with credit. It not with glory. There Is another ymingr man of this city, however. Who fulfilled every ex. peotairlon. His nan.' Is Allen Jones and he rode a third o a mile from the scratch In 40 seconds flat, breaking the Tyler record of 43 3-5 made at Spring, field, Mass. Again in the mile han. dicap, class A, he rode in time equal to that made in the first tmle of the two- mile race paced by tandems yeatcrday, In whildh Bald broke tlhe world's rec ord. Then came the event of the day, the mile Invitation, Ol'aas D maced by tandem, wtWi Bald, Burke, Coulter, Osein, Foster and Terrlll starting, nelth er Edwards nor Zeigler having quali fied In tlrelr.s.." , At 'Uhe oracle of a pistol Bald got away first and tacked on to the rear Wheel of the tandem, urging them on at every turn, whkflj position he kept for the flrut llap when, pursuing Jils usual rajtlcs he ipropped back and al lowed Coulter and Foster to get be tween him and the pacemakers. He kept this position, lapped toy Osen until the last turn into the stretch right Where he broke away yesterday, and then wMh a opunt equal to any Zlm. merman ever made, he passed the tan dem and came across the tape wheel's length ahead of Coulter, who was Kaipped by Ftwter. The crowd was kept In a fever of suspense for a few mtoultes. They knew the delay tn announcing the time meant the declaraltHon of a new record, and When the announcer came forward there was perfect stillness. But when he said: "BaM has towered the world's record for one mile; time, 2:04, there oame a tremendous wave of aip- piause wihiwh lasted several minutes. Coulter land Foster rode under the record In this race. In the first healt of the Walf-mlle han. dlcap, Class B., Eklwands rode from the scraitdh in 1.02 'l-5, winning his heat easily, and again In the final heat he rode half a mile In 1:02 1-6, lowering the ooast record twice. SEN. BLACKBURN' S CHALLENGE. He Throws Down the Gauntlet on the Silver Question. Louisville, April 20. in an Interview publi-ihed In today's Courier-Journal Senator Blackburn, in unmistakable terms, outlines tils position on the sil ver question and boldly thrown d'own "he g'auntldt to his opponents for sim ilar candor on the same subject. With his usual aggressiveness, the senator almost d&ires his opponenlts to meet him on the issue he represents, and It may be assumed that ,fhe issue will be promrrtly accepted. Senator Btackburn has written with his own hand a statement of the post tlon on which he expects to stand or fall in the senatorial race. He declares his position in part as follows: For the last 20 years, in congress and on the stump, anywhere and every where, I have earnestly and 4erslst- ently Insisted upon the restoration of the silver metal to that place In th money system of the country which It held prior to the passage of that dis astrous act of demonetization m 1871. I am In favor of opening the mints of this country to the unlimited coin age of the silver roaba! on cm equality with the coinage of gold. I am opposed to monometallism without resm'aUon, I am a KnxAallWt. I want, and mean to continue to tradst uPn he use of both matals on even terms as redemp tion money of this country. I would be glad to see this reeuft brought about by the aotlon of Internationa confer ence' provided H could be done with out deflay. I am opposed to this gov ernment waiting for any such confer ence to . Our experlencs wffh such agencies has not teen such as to glvs either confidence or hope of attainmen t of Uvhj purpose. I beWeve the restifk-tlon (entailed up on us by tlhla Uerrtometlz&tlon policy) e one half f your redemption money, has contributed more than any eause to bring thfts shrinkage of all values, deipreaUoitton of all property, Otagnation of trade, paraJyals of Industry; finan cial troubles tn whldh we now find our selves. While this may be true, th restoration of silver to Its place of unrestricted coinage and unlimited le gal tender function may not prove a panacea for the alls that we now suf fer, I am convinced It will do more and go further In thtait direction than any one piece of legtataitfcm that han been suggested. I am In favor of ithe restoration of sliver metal alt a ratio of IS to 1, be lieving In the UglHt of expert ?nce that covers a century, that such raltio will establish and maintain permanently the parity between the two metals. THE FIRE UlfDHR WRITERS. They Meet in San Francisco Yesterday Without Result. San Francisco, April 20. The board of Fire Underwriters of the Pacific Coast mot this morning to take final action In regard to ithe course of pro- cedure necessary by the continuance of the warfare against the compact by outside companies. The result was not as predicted In contain quarters In so far as the dissolution of the compact to concerned., AM that was done was to suspend naites In California except In cities iwherever there are local boards. -This will affect S'an Francisco. The Compact of leading Insurance companies covers seven of the western states and territories, Including Art noma, Oregon, Washington, Idrip, Hon tana, Utah and California. There has been no further trouble experienced In keeping the underwriters together out side this state, and here the war. has been praotloaffly confined to this .city and Oakland. The result of the ruling todlay, will be to let the convpianles thresh the quarrel out among themselves until they are tired of 'fighting. In so far as reinsurance of policies Is concerned, the out rate system has been pretty well worked already for all it is worth. That Is, unless It may please some..)! the big insurance companies to insure the city for nothing, which, of course, they can easily do if they say the word. The policy outlined Is one that will prove wearing on smaller companies. It Is anticipated that before long har mony will again prevail among nil concenned. ' , ST. LOUIS RACES.)' St. Louis, Alprtl 20, Between 8,000 and 9,000 people attended the races at the fair grounds association track today. The chief event was a match between the famous Brooklyn handicap win ner, Dr. Rice, and the less known but equally promising horse, Simmons. tr. Rice drew the rail in the toss-up, and the horses got away at the first start. Rice took the lead, and alt the quarter was a length ahead under a strong pull. At the haflf he was two lengths ahead, and ait the stretch he was one and a half lengths ahead. The finish was an exciting one, but Simmons moved ahead, and finished easy by two lengths. Time, 1:14 3-4, to the track record for six furlongs. SAN FRANCISCO RACES. San Francisco, April 20. A big crowd went out to the track today and dropped Its money on every race except the third.
