May 21—An attempt was made *>srly today to destroy a new $750,000 steel bridge belonging to the New York. New Haven and Hartford railroad at Baychester. New York. At least 50 pounds of dynamite was ex- ploded under one of the end posts of the middle rpan, shattering the post and a section of one of the lower chords. - ' The explosion wa» heard for three mites around and few .buildings e»- , cajj'id being . shaken up. One. person was injured. A laborer was thrown from his bed and rut by flying glaps. i The bridge was finished Wednesday evening and turned over to the railroad company. The crime is attributed to certain groups of labor organizations because of the adoption of an open shop policy by. the important bridge building con- cerns. Two months ago a new steel bridge on the New Haven road crocs- ing Pelham bay. and half a mile east of the scene of today's crime, was de- stroyed on the eve of completion. A week later 12 sticks of dynamite were found under the island pier of the Blackwells island bridge. Last April a Pennsylvania steel bridge at Fall River, Mass., was* blown up.

His condition was as mysterious as -;hin disappearance and, though he recovered somewhat on being taken back among familiar surroundings, he was- unable- to state what had occurred. The general impression is that he suf- fered a temporary loss of his mind. He was found by Kdward C Epps, an old friend. While-walking up Broad- way, in Oakland yesterday evening Epps saw Captain McAlistor a short dis- tance from him and. having read of his disappearance in The Call, went up to inquire about it.' To all outward ap- pearances Captain McAlister was per- fectly rational, but on addressing him Epps saw that the man was the vic- tim of some mental trouble.

Monterey, Pacific Grove and Santa Cruz. Is running off its baseball schedule. The winning team will be presented with a handsome sil- ver trophy. * * ' * The final game for the baseball cham- pionship of the Sacramento valley in- terseholastic league will be, played be- tween the teams of Chico high and Sac- ramento in Chico June 6. Sacramento earned the right to appear \n the finals by defeating Woodland. The latter school protested the game, as the capl- i tal city men had not filed their appli- cation papers properly. The league of- ficials decided in favor of Sacramento. After sending the hot shot over the wires for 12 hours Manager Willus Brut brought about returns last night when Battling Nelson acknowledged the receipt ot his rinal telegram of pleading and stated that he had called off his proposed match fvith Kid Sealer in Seattle and would leave immediately for this city. Bat received Britt's wire at Centralia, a little town between Portland and Seattle. He evidently fell for the extravagant language of the boy manager and now all is well with Britt and Coffroth. Nelson probably is on his way to this city, though Britt wired him that there v»s no hurry and that he could lay off in Portland or Seattle for a few days and amuse himself. As long as he persuaded the durable Dane to pass ' Sealer up. Britt is satisfied. He.J~ -JL* knows now that Bat will be on the job safe and sound, so the worrying period is passed. According to the present program. Britt and Kelson will N take to the mountains in a few da\« for a hunting ; trip. Nelson is a great admirer of the \u25a0 outdoor life and before he ever starts | training for an important engagement, he likes to have his little fling with : nature. This invariably tones him up. snd he ran then take to his training work with added energy. Ntlson has Ion? been waiting for a chance to take Britt over the hurdles ia the wilds, and now that the op- portunity presents itself the- Battler will b*- tickled to death. Britt says he will select the hunting- grounds. As yet fee has not decided where the scene of action will he. but it is likely that the pair will take to the Truckee river district. Promoter Jim Coffroth is very well pleased that Nf-lson saw his way to tall the tScaler bout off. I>ike every- body rise, Coffroth realized full well that the gro would be nothing more than a warm up for the Dane. Bat figured to clean Soaler in three or four round?, but at the same time the pro- moter feared that Kelson might posslbly ir.jure his hand, or hurt himself in some other way while tearing after his man. \ It~would have hardly been worth Nel- i eon"s while to tako such a chance fojr, the small purse he would receive for trimming Sealer, and it is- likely that he realized this, too. after thinking the matter over carefully. Not to be outdone by Britt and N>l- fon, Joe Gans will also make a pil- grimage into the wild country. Bright , and r-ariy this morning Joe and his ! trainer. Willie Keefe. trill leave for \u25a0 Harbin Springs. It is Joe's intention i to remain in, the mountain* for about three weeks and build up. He has I seen what the old outdoor life has done for other ring stars, such as Jfffries and Nelson, and he wants a little of tne game himself. GStjs proposes to build up and take on weight while in the mountains. If everything comes out all right. Joe \u25a0 figures that he will leave the Lake ! county -resort weighing about 145 1 pounds. H<* will then have about three | u-«icks in which to train in the gym- naslum and on the road. Everybody knows that the old master can make tbe lightweight limit of 133 pounds' now. He believes that he will be much better off If he has & few spare pounds to work upon, and 15 will be nonfe too much, according to his own state- Gans realizes that he is going uj> against the toughest proposition of his long career in the ring. He still remembers those 42 stirring rounds with Nelson in that Goldfield ring nearly two years ago. Nobody knows better than Gans himself that he will require all the vitality and steam that he can collect within the next month or so. From his every ect 'it would appear that Gar.s firmly believes that the coming match with the Dane is! going to be a long one, and that it •will be full of fight all the time. Already public interest seems to have been started. All along the line last ni?M the big match was the main topic of conversation. The Goldfield battle was fought over many times again by fans who witnessed it, and j the opinions of the experts were as j divided as they were before the great j lightweights stepped into the ring be- j fore. From present indications the i .fight is going to be one of the heaviest! betting affairs ever known here. - Now that tlie signing up of Gar.s and Nelson has left Mm high and dry without a match to fillin his June per- mit Sam Berger is doing" an overtime hotfoot in a frantic effort to bring Abe ' Attell and "Packey" McFarland* to- 1 gather. "Packey" is willing to come) out here, and practically name his own ) terms, but when the matter was put to Abo Tie balked and ran out. McFarland insists that if he goes o%i ! with Attell he must be permitted to j w^igh in at 132 pounds at 3 o'clock. 1 When Berger tried to convince Attell S to agree to this th* little champion [ made an awful roar. He said that he j was a feather weight, and that he did| not propose to takf on, welters. He is ready to meet McFarland at 133 ring- side, but he $ay« that there is no ; chance to get him into the ring: with ! the. pride of the stockyards with that j 132 pounds at 3 o'clock talk. * If Berger is willing to stick Boer j Unholz in against McFarland he can have him for the asking. The Boer j wa? right on the job when he learned i what was stirring, and expressed his j usual willingness to tight. It may be I that Sam will be compelled to take j Unholz, for the grass is getting rather i short and Sam dimply will have to j show a flash of speed if he is going to j make good. * Unholz evidently does not intend overlooking any bets. He got his last $3,000 pretty easy, and he still believes that there is more of this soft coin hangini: around. R. A. Smyth OAKLAND,, May : 21.— The sudden Ill- ness of Juror Andrew: H.

Jefferson Demont Thompson, chair-man of the Vanderbilt cup commission,in a letter to Robert Lee Morrell,chairman of the contest committee of theAutomobile club of America, acknowl-edged the receipt of the latter's let-ter Inclosing the protest of the Auto-mobile club of France, reciting the factthat the subject of rules had been care-fully discussed two months ago. de-clared that there was no possibility ofany change being made in the Vander-bilt conditions. .-

The press sheet that was disclaimedby officers of the Automobile club ofAmerica quoted a dispatch from Savan-nah that recounted how S. M. Butler,president of the club, had visited thatcity Saturday la?t and made a proposi-tion to the Savannah automobile clubto promote an- International race InSavannah in November. It was learnedlater that Butler had been in that citySaturday. Itwas denied, however, thathe ha<J'made a proposition for a clubrace there.

NEW YORK. May 21.—There havebeen several sensational developmentsIn the international automobile racingon this side of the Atlantic. These in-clude a refusal of the Vanderbilt cupcommission to change its conditions toconform to the rules of the Ostendcongress; .the sending out of an elab-orate press sheet that was not author-ized by the Automobile club of America,in which it was stated that the clubplanned the promotion of an Interna-tional race at Savannah. Ga.; an out-spoken demand on the part of importersof automobiles that in the premises Itis the duty of the Automobile club ofAmerica to promote a race" under In-ternational rules, and finallyan intima-tion that the Vanderbilt cup» race maybe blacklisted by the international as-sociation of recognized automobileclubs. ;

NEW YORK. May 21—An attemptwas made *>srly today to destroy anew $750,000 steel bridge belonging tothe New York.New Haven and Hartfordrailroad at Baychester. New York. Atleast 50 pounds of dynamite was ex-ploded under one of the end posts ofthe middle rpan, shattering the postand a section of one of the lowerchords. - '

The explosion wa» heard for threemites around and few .buildings e»-,cajj'id being . shaken up. One. personwas injured. A laborer was thrownfrom his bed and rut by flying glaps.iThe bridge was finished Wednesdayevening and turned over to the railroadcompany.

The crime is attributed to certaingroups of labor organizations becauseof the adoption of an open shop policyby.the important bridge building con-cerns. Two months ago a new steelbridge on the New Haven road crocs-ing Pelham bay. and half a mile eastof the scene of today's crime, was de-stroyed on the eve of completion. Aweek later 12 sticks of dynamite werefound under the island pier of theBlackwells island bridge. Last Aprila Pennsylvania steel bridge at FallRiver, Mass., was* blown up.

His condition was as mysteriousas -;hin disappearance and, though herecovered somewhat on being takenback among familiar surroundings, hewas- unable- to state what had occurred.The general impression is that he suf-fered a temporary loss of his mind.

He was found by Kdward C Epps, anold friend. While-walking up Broad-way, in Oakland yesterday evening Eppssaw Captain •McAlistor a short dis-tance from him and. having read of hisdisappearance in The Call, went up toinquire about it.' To all outward ap-pearances Captain McAlister was per-fectly rational, but on addressing himEpps saw that the man was the vic-tim of some mental trouble. He tookcharge 6f whlm Immediately and tele-graphed Captain Solomon Avery at thePresidio of his discovery.

Sacramentoearned the right to appear \n the finalsby defeating Woodland. The latterschool protested the game, as the capl-ital city men had not filed their appli-cation papers properly. The league of-ficials decided in favor of Sacramento.

After sending the hot shot over the wires for 12 hours Manager WillusBrut brought about returns last night when Battling Nelson acknowledgedthe receipt ot his rinal telegram of pleading and stated that he had called offhis proposed match fvith Kid Sealer in Seattle and would leave immediatelyfor this city. Bat received Britt's wire at Centralia, a little town betweenPortland and Seattle. He evidently fell for the extravagant language of theboy manager and now all is well with Britt and Coffroth.

Nelson probably is on his way to this city, though Britt wired him thatthere v»s no hurry and that he could lay off in Portland or Seattle for afew days and amuse himself. As long as he persuaded the durable Daneto pass

'Sealer up. Britt is satisfied. He.J~ -JL*

knows now that Bat will be on the jobsafe and sound, so the worrying periodis passed.

According to the present program.Britt and Kelson willNtake to themountains in a few da\« for a hunting ;trip. Nelson is a great admirer of the \u25a0

outdoor life and before he ever starts |

training for an important engagement,he likes to have his little fling with:nature. This invariably tones him up.snd he ran then take to his trainingwork with added energy.

Ntlson has Ion? been waiting for achance to take Britt over the hurdlesia the wilds, and now that the op-portunity presents itself the- Battlerwill b*- tickled to death. Britt sayshe will select the hunting- grounds. Asyet fee has not decided where the sceneof action will he. but it is likely thatthe pair willtake to the Truckee riverdistrict.

Promoter Jim Coffroth is very wellpleased that Nf-lson saw his way totall the tScaler bout off. I>ike every-body rise, Coffroth realized full wellthat the gro would be nothing morethan a warm up for the Dane. Batfigured to clean Soaler in three or fourround?, but at the same time the pro-moter feared that Kelson mightposslblyir.jurehis hand, or hurt himself in someother way while tearing after his man. \It~would have hardly been worth Nel- ieon"s while to tako such a chance fojr,the small purse he would receive fortrimming Sealer, and it is- likely thathe realized this, too. after thinkingthe matter over carefully.• • •

Not to be outdone by Britt and N>l-fon, Joe Gans will also make a pil-grimage into the wild country. Bright,and r-ariy this morning Joe and his !trainer. Willie Keefe. trill leave for \u25a0

Harbin Springs. It is Joe's intention i

to remain in, the mountain* for aboutthree weeks and build up. He has Iseen what the old outdoor life hasdone for other ring stars, such asJfffries and Nelson, and he wants alittle of tne game himself.

GStjs proposes to build up and takeon weight while in the mountains. Ifeverything comes out all right. Joe \u25a0

figures that he will leave the Lake !county -resort weighing about 145 1pounds. H<* will then have about three |u-«icks in which to train in the gym- •

naslum and on the road. Everybodyknows that the old master can maketbe lightweight limit of 133 pounds'now. He believes that he willbe muchbetter off Ifhe has & few spare poundsto work upon, and 15 will be nonfetoo much, according to his own state-

Gans realizes that he is going uj>against the toughest proposition ofhis long career in the ring. He stillremembers those 42 stirring roundswith Nelson in that Goldfield ringnearly two years ago. Nobody knowsbetter than Gans himself that he willrequire all the vitality and steam thathe can collect within the next monthor so. From his every ect 'it wouldappear that Gar.s firmly believes thatthe coming match with the Dane is!going to be a long one, and that it•will be fullof fight all the time.• • •

Already public interest seems tohave been started. All along the linelast ni?M the big match was the maintopic of conversation. The Goldfieldbattle was fought over many timesagain by fans who witnessed it, and jthe opinions of the experts were as jdivided as they were before the great jlightweights stepped into the ring be- jfore. From present indications the i.fight is going to be one of the heaviest!betting affairs ever known here.- Now that tlie signing up of Gar.sand Nelson has left Mm high and drywithout a match to fillin his June per-mit Sam Berger is doing" an overtimehotfoot in a frantic effort to bring Abe

'Attell and "Packey" McFarland* to- 1gather. "Packey" is willing to come)out here, and practically name his own )terms, but when the matter was put toAbo Tie balked and ran out.

McFarland insists that if he goes o%i !with Attell he must be permitted to jw^igh in at 132 pounds at 3 o'clock. 1When Berger tried to convince AttellSto agree to this th* little champion [made an awful roar. He said that he jwas a feather weight, and that he did|not propose to takf on, welters. He isready to meet McFarland at 133 ring-side, but he $ay« that there is no;chance to get him into the ring: with!the. pride of the stockyards with that j132 pounds at 3 o'clock talk.* • •

If Berger is willing to stick Boer jUnholz in against McFarland he canhave him for the asking. The Boer jwa? right on the job when he learned iwhat was stirring, and expressed his jusual willingness to tight. Itmay be Ithat Sam will be compelled to take jUnholz, for the grass is getting rather ishort and Sam dimply will have to jshow a flash of speed if he is going to jmake good.

*Unholz evidently does not intend

overlooking any bets. He got his last$3,000 pretty easy, and he still believesthat there is more of this soft coinhangini: around.
