Sawyer filed a pe tition in the Superior Court yesterday asking that Frances Noonan; widow of the late Jeremiah Noonan, explain why she did not file her husband's will for probate. Jeremiah Noonan died in 1901, leaving considerable Eastern and San Francisco unimprov ed real estate and a large sum of money in the bank. Since his demise his widow has managed his furniture business in this city. Mrs. Noonan said last evening that she would file the will forthwith, her failure , to do so to date being due solely to negli gence. Lawyer Wants Will Probated. SAN JOSE, March 29. — Johnny Reiff, one of the greatest of American Jockeys, announced to-day that he will retire from the track. "There Is one thing sure," said he, "and that Is I will never ride in America, and un less I receive my license to ride la France I will ride no more. If the license is granted I may go to Francs this spring." Reiff is at the home of his parents 'near this city. Since he was injured by being thrown at Chicago last sum mer Reiff has grown heavy. He Is far beyond his usual weight and it would be almost impossible to get to his for mer condition. Reiff has been prom ised reinstatement upon the French turf, but it is so long coming he has almost given up hope. Besides the fine home they pur chased for their parents it is said that both Johnny and Lester Reiff have saved fortunes from their riding. Johnny Ueiff says he will go into the horse breeding business In this vicin ity. He will purchase some thorough l bred mares and will raise race horses. Jockey Who Gained Fame In This ¦ ."

Kennedy should have been appointed; last January, but certain charges were made against him and he lost his place in line at that time. The Civil Service Board found that the charges were false and the Police Commissioners wish now to appoint Kennedy, but want the former board to again certify to his name. This the civil service people refuse to do, saying they have already, done so. The matter will be settled amicably at the next meeting. ' Policeman Thomas P.

Napa Stock Farm's great filly Arisbe. winner of the Bell stakes, will meet Pinkerton again on Saturday In the Gebhard stakes at Oakland. Barney thinks that he has a wonder in the black colt and Trainer Dick Williams concurs \ in his employer's opinion. Pinkerton will probably reach Oakland to-day from Los Angeles. He will be ridden by Jimmy Boland. Frank Otis will have the mount on Arisbe. The weights for the stake will be named to-day. Not all the members of the ring quit loser on the afternoon's proceedings, for "English Bill" Jackman won $2S0O. Bookmaker Gus Bluhm, with his family, will depart shortly for the "East. It is stranse that Quiz could not show first any part of it in the last i ace. The gelding always liked heavy going. . Buxton is busily engaged, it is said, writing a book entitled "Does it Pay to Rfd« One Good and Two Bad Races?" . . With Diderot to all outward appear ances a member of the has been class, the mile and seventy-yard number looked easy for Galanthus. The talent fell on the Coffey horse with both feet, forcing the odds down to 7 to 10. Dide rot showed speed for something over a quarter of a mile, when the favorite went to the front, winning without ef fort at the close from Chickadee. IrO.U, at" one time hopelessly out of the running, took third, place from the weakly ridden Frank Woods. Buxton's ride on El Piloto in the last race was a t gorgeous piece, of nonsen sical horsemanship.. Figured on Green wich time, "Frisco" Hoag's gelding was 1 year 7 months 29 days 3^ hours 16 minutes the best and thus finished sec ond. There was some talk of the race beinga "shoo-in", for Criss Cross, which 1 , mare closed '. equal , choice with Oro Viva. Possibly, it was only ¦ idle gossip, ' such as is . handed ; around on tracks every day. At any rate, . Oro Viva" got away .badly "and Criss- Cross •won" by half a length. from the wretch edly handled El Pllotcr. ' : <1 . Napa Stock Farm's stake winning filly Arisbe looked far and away the best of the five starters in the two year-old scramble and the liberal price of 7 to 10 could be had about her. She had Frank Otis on her back and, catch ing Sea Air at the paddock, scored handily by more than a length. Harry Stover's George P. McNear took show honors from Inspector Halpln. Harry Thatcher did not start In the six and a half furlong run next decided and Optimo enjoyed first call at odds of 6 to 5. The gelding was ridden by Crosswaite and, beating his company away from the barrier, only galloped from start to finish.. Sue Johnson tired perceptibly, as the stand was ap proached and Vanderbout, on Pencil Me, secured the place. GAIiAXTHTJS IS FIRST. Reeves, the entry of Lamasney Bros., looked a legitimate 7 to 10 chance for the opening event, still the books laid 3 to 2 at the start off. Bonner rode the bay horse, which won as he pleased. In a hard drive Mountain landed Edu cate, a 1« to 1 shot, in the place, a neck before Salto. Colonel Ballantyne made his first appearance this season and ran a fair sort of race, even if he col lected nothing for his owner. REEVES WINS IIAXDIIjY. The feature event was the handicap at six furlongs, for which the Jennings pair, Letola and Nigrette, had a de cided call. Sad Sam tried to make good with his 114 pounds, but Letola, piloted by Travers, passed him when ready, and won by four open lengths from Ocean .Dream, the second choice. Nigrette finished third and with any sort of fair handling could have been second. Horses are not supposed to run to their best form over a muddy track, but this rule was broken on six straight occasions yesterday at Oakland. Be ginning with Reeves and ending with Criss Cross every first choice was led away to the stable wearing a brand new set of winning brackets. The regu lars were out in full force and the major portion of the bookmakers were hard hit. J -v?.- ; Third race. Tennessee Cluo mine, six fur longs — Auditor won. Red Man second. Cogno men third.

LOS ANGELES. March 29.—Notwith standing the defeat of five out of six favorites at Ascot to-day, the books were hard hit. Every winner except one, Agnes Mack, was at good prices and was played all over the ring. The field books especially suffered from the victory of Geisha Girl, which, after being played from 40 to 1 to 12 to 1. won by a nose from Victoria S, the favorite. Chemist, at 6 to 1, started the proces sion by taking the first race from th« favorite. Liberto, with Little Secret third. In this race Lurdan was cut down on the first turn. The hamstring of his left leg was cut as if severed by a knife. He was destroyed on the track where he went down. Mistletide. played from 10 to 1 to 6 to 1. was the next winner, beating: Eu genie B a head, with Pat Bulger third.

Smith, though eighteen pounds lighter than the Oak lander, simply played with him. Mc- Connell must learn not to do his fight ing on the floor. Young Dempsey of West Oakland and Kid Kennedy of the Eureka Club fought a lively f6ur rounds to a draw. When the betting opened in this city yesterday afternoon Turner was in stalled an 8 to 10 favorite. There was a heavy play on Cordell early in the evening and the betting shifted com pletely around. Cordell went into the ring a 7 to 10 favorite. It was thought for a time that the betting had a bad look, but the result did not. bear this out. ¦ They started oft in the first round with Turner swinging hard and land ing a couple of knockdown blows. A| the opening of the second Cordell went to the floor under a whirlwind of swings, and then the white lad began to lead with his left, using it constant ly to Rufe's head. Turner missed swings repeatedly, his blows falling short. Then the fight settled down to a continuous performance of left jabs from Cordell to the negro's nose. From the fourth to the tenth round Turner did very little work, occasion ally making a rush into Cordell, but failing to do any damage. Jack appeared to gain confidence with the progress of the fight, and, if anything, that cost him a victory on points. His constant jabbing, how ever, was not strong enough to more than keep Turner's nose bleeding. With the opening bell in the eleventh Turner jumped in and with a heavy left put Cordell to the floor. Jack took George Harding's count of nine and- was up in time only to go down again under another terrific jolt. Turner put in a third as soon as Cor dell straightened out, and the finish came with the fourth, a heavy right straight to the point of the jaw. BETTIXG IS PANICKY*. COUJ>KLT, IS DOWN*. ¦ * . . . Rufe Turner, the colored boxer from Stockton, knocked out Jack Cordell, the Hayes Valley boy, in the eleventh round last night at the Reliance Club, Oakland. Turner's right and left swings came in one, two, three, four order at the finish, catching the Hayes Valley lad clean on the jaw and set tling a fight that for eight rounds of the ten before the knockout was Cordell's on points. The white lad's advantage in reach gave him the best of the box ing, and it was when he closed in on Turner that Rufe landed hfs stiff swings which settled Cordell's game. The Hayes Valley contingent was hopeful for a while that the contest would go the fifteen rounds, but Turner, jabbed as ha was, did not in tend that it should end that way. Just before he started to the center in the eleventh he whispered "I'll get him In this round." Cordetl did his best work in his straight jabs with the left to the face.
