Hon that tho action of President Hlckcy was
aibltrary and unjustified. Had ho been at
homo attending to his business he would not
have had occasion to discipline tho Omaha

Omaha may look for aid from Denvor In

sessions of tho magnates nt the close of tho

No date has been set for the meeting yet,
hut It Is likely to bo held very soon, maylm
this week. Kach team has certain funds
tied up, and whllo none of them Is sultcrltih
for ready money all will bo willing to take
down whatever Is coming to them. AbIiIo

bfforo spring.
It tins been one of the liveliest tinlshcii

At 'any rate, n match between Fltz and
Corbett would attract great Interest, nnd,
inasmuch as they both occupy rolatlve po
sitions with tho present champion, Jef-
ferles may Insist that these two decide
between them which Is to do battle with

Tho first leg of tno triangle was to u
buoy off Manhattan beach, four miles to thu
west, and tho yachts made for It In long
tacks. The gathered mass of sails, grace
ful ns a flock of swan, wns soon scnttered,
the Psyche taking the lead at once and
the dolden Ilule, nlso In the first cIhbs,
rounding tho buoy a closo second. Tho
wind Increased to a gale und the prostrate
figures lying at the edge of the deck could
sco the centerboard for an uncomfortable
distance under the keel ns each gust
caught the sail. ThosjQ who had left their
sails unreefed wero obliged to luff con
stantly, whllo tho moro sagacious ones
sped on ahead.
Tho second leg made up a four-mile run
before tho wind to a flag off Arnold's Park.
The course was noutheast and with a galo
directly over tho stern the boats went
thrsugh tho water with a rush. Jibs wero
ballooned and the broad mainsails were let
out to catch the full force of the wind.
Tho leaders had rounded the buoy with
their sails on the wrong side for the run
and the Tsyclie, a fragile craft, was
obliged to come clear about', losing a half
minute. Tho Ooldcn Rule, which still
traveled second, Is a more staunch and
seaworthy craft and Captain Mills, hot
ownor, Jibed with perfect safety. Tho
Helen pt Omaha and tho Nymph, prlzowiu
nor, rounded tho first buoy In a dead heut
and each held Its own In the run. Tho
Omaha boat carries no Jib, placing Its dc
pendenoo solely on a huge mainsail.
Tlio uoldon Hule, which Is a compara
tively heavy boit, managed to ollng to the
Psycho's nklrts all the way to tho second
buoy, its hope of victory lying In tho beat

Tho Helen aud Nymph still traveled lu

scattered over the breadth of the lake.
After the Just turn tho yachts took tho
galo almost full over tho bow and ns each
sloop's nose plunged Into tho wave

a liopelesB one, however, for tho Psyche
still held firmly to Its lead, though Its
mainsail almost swept the water with

raco and a socond victory meant a Me for

over slight, might disable tho speedy llttlo

Wnlcott nt Madison Square Oarden In New-
