Miss Ruby Casselman, charged with forgery on two complaints, may be examined by a commission of experts of mental diseases before her trial, it rumors which were circulated yester- day, are substantiated. All who have seen' and talked with Miss Casselman declare that she Is suffering from some mental disturbance and there could not have been any intention of crime at the time of the alleged forgery and that if Miss Casselman did forge the checks she did not do so with any idea of wronging the persons against whom the checks were made out. Her Sanity Questioned Mike is now in 'Frisco and has begun training for the battle with Gardner. The weight question is not such a great and Important matter with these two as it is with Nelson, as Twinand Jimmy fight best at 135 and upwards. Mike Twin will not be on hand to assist his big bud in prepplng for the most important of all his battles, as Mike has a scrap of his own on, having signed to meet Jimmy Gardner in 'Frisco Thanksgiving day, two days after the O'Brien-Sullivan mill. Jack Twin will train at the pavilion, and while he is now In first class con- dition he realizes that much of his future depends upon the showing he makes against Philadelphia Jack and will spare no effort to be in his best condition. Jack Twin will remain In 'Frisco until after the O'Brien-Kauffman mill Friday night, but will return to Los Angeles next week and begin training for the fight with O'Brien. This is the substance of the agree- ment between all concerned and was closed yesterday by wire, Leap acting in 'Frisco for Sullivan and McCarey. The articles will be signed today, Jack Twin having left last night to meet O'Brien today. Jack "Twin" Sullivan and Jack O'Brien will box twenty rounds before the Pacific Athletic club November 28. They will weigh in at 3 o'clock at 160 pounds. Terms for Battle Here No. vember 28 Middleweight Topnotchers Come to White attached some of Gorman's horses several months ago as a result of the suit for debt and Davis now claims a lien on these animals for $1400 services as trainer and care taker at the track. The Costen suit was taken under ad- visement and the suit of Crlttenden Davis against Sheriff White was then taken up. Many other statements by witnesses gave inner details of track life. When Gorman was called upon to explain the debt he asserted that Costen had paid him the money to give a certain stable boy at Ascot park as pay for doping Brlarthrope, a horse, that on form looked good to win if the race had been square. A certain item of the debt against Gorman is for $200 and the facts testi- fied to regarding this item proved highly interesting to the few Los An- geles track followers who were in the courtroom. It Is alleged that Judge Hamilton got wind of the affair before the race and that orders were given to the Jockey to ride fair, which he did, and won the race. Gorman was ruled off the Ascot track last year In company with Bauer on the charge that he attempted to bribe a jockey to pull a horse. Gor- man was charged with having paid a certain sum to a jockey to hold in his horse during a race and allow a nag at long odds to win. Although Costen not only denies, but resents the intimation that he was Gorman's partner, Gorman sticks to that point and asserts that most of the debts against him were contracted dur- ing this 'partnership. The case of Costen against Gorman and Bauer for the payment of promis- sory notes amounting to $6000 has been in Julge Bordwell's court for sev- eral days past, but the actual facts in the case did not appear In evidence until yesterday. The inside workings of a great race track, the stories of how races are pulled, horses doped, Jockeys bribed and the public allowed to walk right up and lose its money, while th«; bookies and hangers-on get all the loose change around the track, were among some of the startling revelations made by P. J. Gorman j'esterday in Judge Bordwell's court as he explained cer- tain items of a bill against him, for which Diamond Joe Costen has brought suit.

Catholic Reception Tonight The choir of the Cathedral of St. Vlblana willgive a reception in honor of the Young Men's society and the Young Ladles' sodality of the parish this evening in the cathedral hall. The receiving party is ' composed of well known society people. The Sari Bernardino directors have begun Improvements on their track which will cost $8000 and I when com- pleted It Is expected that there willbe no faster track In Southern California. It is announced that an early spring meeting throughout the circuit will be given, opening with the local meeting not later than the first week In June. The local track will thus have the 1905 closing dates and the 1906 opening dates, giving an advantage In stabling the horses during the winter season.

The purses and cups offered by the San Bernardino and Santa Ana associa- tions are identical and are as follows: Daily workouts are being witnessed by enthusiasts who crowd to Agricul- tural park for a sight of the trials of the several horses in training at the local track. W. A. Clark, jr.. Is coming with a string from Lexington, and Charles Jeffries, the veteran trainer of good ones. Is heading this way from Spokane. Many of the best horses in the west will contest for the purses and cups offered by the associations of the three cities. Two carloads of horses are on the way from Oregon and Northern Cal- ifornia to San Bernardino and will be campaigned throughout the southern circuit. Prospects are favorable for the most successful meetings of the Southern California fall circuit ever held. The season opens November 9 at San Ber- nardino and continues three daya. Closely following this meeting comes the Santa Ana meet, November 15 to 17, and beginning November 21 and con- tinuing all week the trotters and pacers will be at Agricultural park. "I posted $500 with the 'Frisco Exam- iner and $500 with the 'Frisco Bulletin, and will give this money to Hanlon if he \u25a0 will at any , time fight Fitzgerald again, something that he refuses to do. "Fits had Hanlon bleeding: all through "I got into the ring with $1000 in my hand and offered it to any doctor that would examine Hanlon and find that ho had been fouled. Even Spider Kelly, who is very quick to take action in case of a foul, failed to get out of his seat. In the corner until after the referee ha.l given his decision. * "Hanlon was so surprised that he asked the referee how he had won, and he was told on a foul. Hanlon imme- diately ran over to the corner to Fitz- gerald and said: 'Willie, you did not foul me, but he has given me the de- cision and I would be a fool not to take It.'. "Fitz had Eddie beaten all the way, and as Hanlon was bleeding very bad and it did not look as though Hanlon could possibly last the round out, the referee stepped in between the men and declared Hanlon the winner. "After the fight I found that the same men that had told me that Elton was a good referee had allbet their money on Hanlon. "I, as manager of Fitz, wanted to have the referee changed, but as several of the sports of Los Angeles told me that Elton was O. X., I took a chancs on him. "From the amount of money that was wagered on this contest and also mak- ing Hanlon the favorite over Fitz, was enough to show us that the fight did not look as it should. ( "Dear Sir I write to tell you that your article on the Hanlon and Fitz- gerald fight, which took place at Los Angeles in September, does Willie Fitz a great injustice. The letter reads like the wailings of a disappointed child and the untruths contained in the printed copy are so evi- dent that denial is unnecessary, unless, forsooth, It be for the Information of a (misguided public east of the Rockies and to correct a false impression which (may have resulted from the publication. ! The letter is as follows: The Letter j Statements are made in this letter [which are not compatible with the truth, and reflections are made upon the integrity of Eddie Hanlon, Charles Eiton and Tom McCarey. Local fight fans read with undis- guised surprise and chagrin a letter purporting to be written and signed by Johnny Reid, manager of Willie Fitz- igerald, which was printed in the Police [Gazette issue of October 21, relating to !the Hanlon-Fitzgerald fight, which oc- tcurred here September 5. If you have friends in the East who are coming to California, tell them the low colonist rates are now in ef- fect from all eastern points to Cal- ifornia via the new Salt Lake Route.

Everything you want you will find In the cUulfled pax*. . On* cent a word. Eastern Friends. \u25a0 If Reid wrote such a letter and made the statements contained In the pub- lished copy It will be only the manly thing for him to humbly apologize to Messrs. Eiton, Hanlon and McCarey or leave the coast with his charge, : Willie Fitzgerald, who was beaten almost to a ; \u25a0• i *\u25a0:• \u25a0 ' ;'; ' ..'..\u25a0\u25a0' '.".'• '\u25a0\u25a0 ' '' Spider Kelly did not sit idly in his chair while Reid made his $1000 flash, but Spider Kelly got on his feet and when Reid made his celebrated "beef" about the decision Spider Kelly was right at Mr. Reid's elbow, attenmpting to tell him where he could find a seat and a fan. Reid did not flash $1000 and call for. a physician. He "beefed" because Fitz had lost, but he did not deny that Fitz had fouled Hanlon, because It was too evident to the audience, which Jeered Fitz on other occasions during the earlier stages of the game, when Eddie was getting In telling whallops to Fitz' bread basket. Reid's Flash Hanlon did not make the statement to Fitzgerald that is credited to him and did not talk to Fitzgerald in the ring. Fitz was whipped and all out when he fouled Hanlon. Jeffries sat at the ringside, witnessed the fouls and made the statement after Eiton had awarded Hanlon the decision that the decision was eminently fair and correct, as he had witnessed the delivery of three foul blows by Fitzgerald in that last round. Hanlon did not run across the ring and ask the referee how he had won. No complaint was ever heard from Johnny Reid as to the referee. Fitz never had a peep for a decision from the tap of the gone until he fouled Eddie Hanlon three times In the last round, twice after being cautioned by Elton, and at a time when Fitz was bulging through the ropes, hanging on for dear life, gasping for breath and practically knocked out. That he was beaten and whipped to a standstill Is the universal verdict of all who saw the fight. Fitz never shed a drop of blood and sustained not the slightest scratch to show that he had been in a fight. Any imputation upon the honesty or integrity of these men Is a direct slap at the game on thte coast, as they are more than ordinarily prominent in the promotion of the sport In Southern Cal- ifornia and are recognized In an en- tirely different light than that In which Reid has placed them. The answer of these men and the Interested public is that the fight was on the square so far as Hanlon, Elton and McCarey are concerned. Whatever crooked work may have been contem- plated or wrought by the Fitzgerald contingent is up to them to answer for, as it was not a matter of publicity and is not credited here. On the presumption that Reid wrote the letter, it is condemned by all who witnessed' the fight or are acquainted with Charles Elton, Eddie Hanlon or Tom McCarey. For Willie Fitzgerald's sake it is hoped by the local sporting fraternity that his manager did not make the statements attributed to him, but it is equally fair to presume that the Police Gazette would not publish the letter if it was not bona fide. "Yours respectfully, "JOHNNY REID, "Manager of Willie Fitzgerald." Generally Condemned "I will at any time match Fitz with Ilanlon, and I willgive him any side bet from $1000 to $5000. Or I will give him $500 to sign a set of articles for another fight with Willie. Kindly give this your attention and oblige the fight, while Fitz did not take a long breath or have a sweat up.

Terms for Battle Here No.vember 28

Middleweight Topnotchers Come to

White attached some of Gorman'shorses several months ago as a resultof the suit for debt and Davis nowclaims a lien on these animals for$1400 services as trainer and care takerat the track.

The Costen suit was taken under ad-visement and the suit of CrlttendenDavis against Sheriff White was thentaken up.

Many other statements by witnessesgave inner details of track life.

When Gorman was called upon toexplain the debt he asserted thatCosten had paid him the money to givea certain stable boy at Ascot parkas pay for doping Brlarthrope, a horse,that on form looked good to win

—ifthe

race had been square.

A certain item of the debt againstGorman is for $200 and the facts testi-fied to regarding this item provedhighly interesting to the few Los An-geles track followers who were in thecourtroom.

It Is alleged that Judge Hamiltongot wind of the affair before the raceand that orders were given to theJockey to ride fair, which he did, andwon the race.

Gorman was ruled off the Ascottrack last year Incompany with Baueron the charge that he attempted tobribe a jockey to pull a horse. Gor-man was charged with having paida certain sum to a jockey to hold inhis horse during a race and allow anag at long odds to win.

Although Costen not only denies, butresents the intimation that he wasGorman's partner, Gorman sticks tothat point and asserts that most of thedebts against him were contracted dur-ing this 'partnership.

The case of Costen against Gormanand Bauer for the payment of promis-sory notes amounting to $6000 hasbeen in Julge Bordwell's court for sev-eral days past, but the actual factsin the case did not appear In evidenceuntil yesterday.

The inside workings of a great racetrack, the stories of how races arepulled, horses doped, Jockeys bribedand the public allowed to walkright up and lose its money, while th«;

bookies and hangers-on get all the loosechange around the track, were among

some of the startling revelations madeby P. J. Gorman j'esterday in JudgeBordwell's court as he explained cer-tain items of a bill against him, forwhich Diamond Joe Costen has broughtsuit.

"Iposted $500 with the 'Frisco Exam-iner and $500 with the 'Frisco Bulletin,and will give this money to Hanlon ifhe \u25a0 will at any,time fight Fitzgeraldagain, something that he refuses to do.

"Fitshad Hanlon bleeding: all through

"Igot into the ring with $1000 in myhand and offered it to any doctor thatwould examine Hanlon and find that hohad been fouled. Even Spider Kelly,whois very quick to take action in case ofa foul, failed to get out of his seat. Inthe corner until after the referee ha.lgiven his decision.

*

"Hanlon was so surprised that heasked the referee how he had won, andhe was told on a foul. Hanlon imme-diately ran over to the corner to Fitz-gerald and said: 'Willie, you did notfoul me, but he has given me the de-cision and Iwould be a fool not totake It.'.

"Fitz had Eddie beaten all the way,and as Hanlon was bleeding very badand itdid not look as though Hanloncould possibly last the round out, thereferee stepped inbetween the men anddeclared Hanlon the winner.

"Afterthe fightIfound that the samemen that had told me that Elton was agood referee had allbet their money onHanlon.

"I, as manager of Fitz, wanted tohave the referee changed, but as severalof the sports of Los Angeles told methat Elton was O. X.,Itook a chancson him.

"From the amount of money that waswagered on this contest and also mak-ingHanlon the favorite over Fitz, wasenough to show us that the fight didnot look as itshould.

( "Dear Sir—Iwrite to tell you that

your article on the Hanlon and Fitz-gerald fight, which took place at LosAngeles in September, does Willie Fitza great injustice.

The letter reads like the wailings ofa disappointed child and the untruthscontained in the printed copy are so evi-dent that denial is unnecessary, unless,forsooth, It be for the Information of a(misguided public east of the Rockiesand to correct a false impression which(may have resulted from the publication.! The letter is as follows:

The Letter

j Statements are made in this letter[which are not compatible with thetruth, and reflections are made uponthe integrity of Eddie Hanlon, CharlesEiton and Tom McCarey.

Local fight fans read with undis-guised surprise and chagrin a letterpurporting to be written and signed byJohnny Reid, manager of Willie Fitz-igerald, which was printed in the Police[Gazette issue of October 21, relating to!the Hanlon-Fitzgerald fight, which oc-tcurred here September 5.

Ifyou have friends in the East whoare coming to California, tell themthe low colonist rates are now in ef-fect from all eastern points to Cal-ifornia via the new Salt Lake Route.This line Is far ahead of all otherwestern lines for beauty of scenery andexcellence of equipment.

\u25a0 IfReid wrote such a letter and madethe statements contained In the pub-lished copy It will be only the manly

thing for him to humbly apologize toMessrs. Eiton, Hanlon and McCarey orleave the coast with his charge, :WillieFitzgerald, who was beaten almost toa; \u25a0• i*\u25a0:• \u25a0

Spider Kelly did not sit idly in hischair while Reid made his $1000 flash,but Spider Kelly got on his feet andwhen Reid made his celebrated "beef"about the decision Spider Kelly wasright at Mr. Reid's elbow, attenmptingto tell him where he could find a seatand a fan.

Reid did not flash $1000 and call for.aphysician. He "beefed" because Fitzhad lost, but he did not deny that Fitzhad fouled Hanlon, because It was tooevident to the audience, which JeeredFitz on other occasions during theearlier stages of the game, when Eddiewas getting In tellingwhallops to Fitz'bread basket.

Reid's Flash

Hanlon did not make the statement toFitzgerald that is credited to him anddid not talk to Fitzgerald in the ring.

Fitz was whipped and all out whenhe fouled Hanlon. Jeffries sat at theringside, witnessed the fouls and madethe statement after Eiton had awardedHanlon the decision that the decisionwas eminently fair and correct, as hehad witnessed the delivery of three foul

blows by Fitzgerald in that last round.Hanlon did not run across the ring

and ask the referee how he had won.

No complaint was ever heard fromJohnny Reid as to the referee.

Fitz never had a peep for a decisionfrom the tap of the gone until he fouledEddie Hanlon three times In the lastround, twice after being cautioned byElton, and at a time when Fitz wasbulging through the ropes, hanging onfor dear life, gasping for breath andpractically knocked out. That he wasbeaten and whipped to a standstill Isthe universal verdict of all who saw thefight.

Fitz never shed a drop of blood andsustained not the slightest scratch toshow that he had been ina fight.

Any imputation upon the honesty orintegrity of these men Is a direct slapat the game on thte coast, as they aremore than ordinarily prominent in thepromotion of the sport InSouthern Cal-ifornia and are recognized In an en-tirely different light than that In whichReid has placed them.

The answer of these men and theInterested public is that the fight wason the square so far as Hanlon, Eltonand McCarey are concerned. Whatevercrooked work may have been contem-plated or wrought by the Fitzgeraldcontingent is up to them to answer for,

as it was not a matter of publicityandis not credited here.

On the presumption that Reid wrotethe letter, it is condemned by all whowitnessed' the fight or are acquaintedwith Charles Elton, Eddie Hanlon orTom McCarey.

For Willie Fitzgerald's sake it ishoped by the local sporting fraternitythat his manager did not make the

statements attributed to him, but it isequally fair to presume that the PoliceGazette would not publish the letter ifit was not bona fide.

"Yours respectfully,"JOHNNY REID,

"Manager of Willie Fitzgerald."

Generally Condemned

"I will at any time match Fitz withIlanlon, and Iwillgive him any sidebet from $1000 to $5000. OrIwill givehim $500 to sign a set of articles foranother fight with Willie. Kindlygivethis your attention and oblige

the fight, whileFitz did not take a longbreath or have a sweat up.
