Tho correspondent of the Associated

the annoying restrictions hitherto Imposed
by tho customs and police odlclals. This

COLOR LINEAT BIG HOTEL

(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, Aug. 21. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Trouble
arose, a few days ago over an effort
to have tho color lino drawn at Ster
mln's hotel, Victoria street. Four
negro delegates from America to the
Ecumenical Methodist conference put up
at tho hotel. A large number of
Americans wore already lodged there.
After dinner on tho evening the negro
delegates arrived a deputation consisting
of four American men and two women
waited on tho hotel manager, Harry Rich
ardson, and asked that tho colored guests
be accommodated elsewhere.
Manager Richardson replied that color
mado no dlffcrenco with him so long as the
conduct of tho guests was orderly and
their accounts were paid. He pointed
out that he had had Indian and African
princes and princesses staying there when
tho hotel was full of Americans and no
complaint had been raised.
The black delegates aro still at the hotel
and only two Americans left on account
of tho maanger's refusal of their request
to turn tho negroes out.
Similar trouble occurred in 1889, when
fifty Methodist ministers came over to at
tend a conference. Two of the clergymen
wore negroes and as tho others refused
to llvo at tho samo hotel or associate with
them In nny way the tourist agency which
had mado tho arrangements had not only
to refund their money to tho boycotted
men, but compensate them handsomely as
well.
Threo of tho delegates hero now to whose
presence objection has been raised are
bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal
church: Bishop Derrick of Now York,
DIshop Gaines of Atlanta, Ga., and lllshop
Tanner of Philadelphia. Another Is Prof.
Scarborough of Wilbcrforco university,
Ohio.
W. WInfiold, manager of tho Anglo
Saxon American bank In Now Yorki who Is
staying at the hotel, said! "With regard
to DIshop Gaines and his daughter, I
think thoy aro lovely people. I llko
them very much and mako no objection to
them. Thoy crossed on tho steamship St.
Louis with mo and were very popular. I
strongly object, however, to colored peoplo
generally mixing In hotols with whlto
people. As to my opinion of Mr. Richard
son's action, I excuse him because he Is
an Englishman. If ho were an American
nothing would mako mo do so."

(Copyright, 1W1, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, Aug. 24. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) A new
British airship, upon which the Inventor,
Thomas Buchanan of Portsmouth, has been
working twenty years, will bo completed in
a few weeks, it is expected.
Tho Inventor is confident that it will
overcome tho difficulties encountered by M.
Santos Dumont. Tho great object "In its
construction has been to follow tho shape of
a bird, even to tho houd and the beak. The
principal steering gear Is a largo aluminum
ruddor, shaped like a fish's tall.
It marks a now doparture in the con
struction of airships, as the passengers will
not be carried in n car, but Inside tho body
of tho contrlvanco. It will be driven by
two powerful propellers, one on each side.
Tho blades aro specially constructed to get
a good grip on tbo air.
Tho gas'ollno motors and cabin aro in tho
lower part of tho nlrshlp, which is built of
Btocl and bamboo, with airholes foro and
aft. Tho front of tho balloon toward tho
beak Is transparent, so that the steerer
may seo the direction In which he Is going.
Tho whole ship is surrounded by a covering
which reduces its angles and consequently
will lessen tho resistance of tho air. Mr.
Buchanan Is confident of success. He wilt
attend tho trial trip In a few weeks. He
says:
"My yacht will ascend or descend ver
tically or from an angle without carrying
ballaBt and without loss of buoyancy. It
will travel at any distance from the earth's
surface, at nny altitude, In nny direction
against the wind, at from ten to forty miles
an hour, according to the head wind. It

killed Luclo Manicr, a young Parlslcune
who was making her debut as an actress at
Vichy after having won hearts at tho Na
tianal Dramatic conservatory. She had
played distractedly and her throat had so
contracted that bIio could hardly produce a

elates found her palo and exhausted and
tried to gtvo her encouragemont to go on
lor the second act.
As sho started to make an entrance her
heart fluttered wildly and tho etago phys
cian advised her against continuing. But
the girl, unwilling to embarrass tho com
pany, guvo a lurch and went on, simply say
Ing:
'I am (insulted to this business and will
abandon the Btage forever after tonight."
During the second uct sho forgot her linos
and tho audience was painfully conscious of
tho nwful Btrugglo tho young actress was
making to spur her memory. Presently
tho spectators saw ber fall backward dead.
She was handsomo and robust. After a
post-mortem examination the doctors said
she was killed solely by excessive emotion.

KING EDWARD AND REJANE
Monarch Snubs Actress In Mnrnlnir
and Asks Her ForKlvcncss
In Afternoon.
(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, Aug. 24. (New York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) The follow
ing story reaches tho World's Paris bureau
from a trustworthy source:
"King Edward of Great Britain, whoso
mournful manner at Homburg contrasts
strangely with his hearty, hail-fellow-well-met
ways on his previous seasons
there, perceived Actress Rcjane the other
day near tho springs In the crowds that
gather every morning to seo his majesty
swallow his prescribed glass In tho small,
deliberate gulps of an old habitue.
"Tho Parisian actress had been on such
friendly terms with the former prlnco of
Wales that she could not restrain n slight
bow when her ye mot that of his majesty.
But ho never moved n muscle, staring
blankly over the edge of his glass.
"That same afternoon tho duko of Cam
bridge sought out Mine. Rejanc and es
corted her to tho king's parlor, where half
a dozen Intimates were gathered. Upon
her entering the room the king arose with
a glad smile and tho easy courtesy which
made the prince famous, extended his hand
nnd mado the actress sit beside him, talk
ing French with her for nearly nn hour.
When Mme. Uejano rose to depart the
king said: 'I nm glad you called. This
chat about old things nnd times has dono
mo good. I must beg you to accept my
apologies for not answering your friendly
nod this morning. Things have changed,
you know, since last we met. You under
stand?" " 'Ouj, sire.' answered Mme. Rejanc.
" 'And forgive me 7' said tho king wistfully.
" 'Thero Is but humble gnitltudo and
devotion In my heart for your majesty,'
answered Mme. Rejanc.
" 'Good girl,' responded tho king. 'I
don't know whon I shall see you ngaln.
You won't see so much of mo hereafter
In Paris as you used to. but whenever you
como to London myself and her majesty,
the queen, will be among the sincere ad
mirers of your performance. Upon my
word, you hnvo grown younger.'
"Then a lightly comic note wnB Introduced
Into tho Interview by tho king naively, even
Impulsively, asking: 'And, do you And mo
changed or aged?'
" 'No, your majesty,' replied she.
" Frankly begged,' commentod King
Edward.
" 'Frankly answered,' returned tho
actress.
"That same evening the duko of Cam
bridge, another of her old friends, took
Mme. Rejane a ring from ho king, saying:
'His majesty says it has no great value,
but, though simple, it seemed pretty, and
he hopes you will wear it for old friend
ship's sake.' "

Cup mill the YouiiKcr Aspirant
Will Have nun I Contest
for Dcfeiiilershlp.
OYSTER BAY, L. 1., Aug. 34.-Columbl
glided across tho finish line at eight min
utes past 4 o'clock this afternoon, for tho
eighth tlmo a winner over Constitution.
And tho most cordiul salute that greeted
tho old champion came from tho steam
yacht Erin, having on board Sir Thomas
Llpton, who had himself been beaten threo
times by tho samo boat.
There was no second, for Constitution
had quit. After Balling ouco around the
triangular course of the Seawanhaka club,
with Columblu forty-soven seconds a win
ner, having gained on overy leg, both boats
ran Into u terrific ralu squull. They groped
about for boiuo tlmo In the downpour nnd
shifting breezes, hardly able to see two
lengths ahead. At Inst the weather cleared
a bit. Columbia picked up tho mark which
waa tho first second round nnd stood for
It. Constitution, however, had already
withdrawn. Having sent down lta big top
sail it was headed for Oystor bay. Co
lumbia kept on, finished tho race, and
takes tho cup.
Today's raco marks tho finish of tho pre
liminary or tuning up series between Con
stitution and Columbia. Thoy now como to
tho trial races oft Nowport under tho aus
pices of tho Now York Yacht club. Tho
boat winning two out of threo of these,
provided thero has been a fair test of
speed In avcrago cup conditions, will un
doubtedly bo selected by tho America's cup
commlttco to sail In tbo international races
against Shamrock II.
Uiich Hits KlKht WluultiKS.
Slnco tho Grst of July tho two candi
dates for tho honor of defending tho cup
havo mado eighteen starts. Out of theso
thero havo been sixteen finishes, an un
usually largo number. Constitution has won
eight and Columbia olght. But theso fig
ures, taken alone, do not quite represent
tho rcspcctlvo merits of tho two boats as
shown by tho contests already sailed. A
brief rcvlow of the results shows that
Constitution has shown superiority In light
breezes and smooth seas only. Columbia
has never been beaten in anything like a
strong and true wind, with one exception,
which was on August 10, oft Newport, when
it suffered a mishap in a hard hammer to
windward In tho strongest brcczo of tho
wholo series. When the accident occurred
It was ahead of Constitution in tho weather
borth and It Is tho general opinion that It
would havo beaten tho new boat had It
not been obliged to luff into tho wind for
moro than flvo minutes. However the
performance of Constitution on that day
was a grand one The wind piped up to
twenty-four knots at times and tho yacht
took tho heavy seas nnd hard puffs, oven
with a club topsail aloft, In admirable
stylo.
The first raco on July 1 was won by Co
lumbia in a ten-knot southweatcr. On July
3 Columbia became disabled three miles
from the start, when It had a lead, and
Constitution refused to tako a walkover. On
July 6 and 8, In light airs, at no tlmo blow
ing over six knots, nnd most of tbo time
undor four, Constitution showed up in
wonderful form and gavo tho old boat two
decisive beatings. On the 10th of July Con
stitution started, but soon withdrow on nc
count of thick fog. Columbia and Inde
pendence went over tho course, but were
unablo to finish within tho tlmo limit. On
July 11 and 12 Columbia won two victories,
ono In a nino-knot southweHtcr and the
other In a fresh northeaster.
When Constitution Flourished.
Then camo tho races during tho cruiso
of tho New York Yacht club in tho light
breezes of tbo sound. Constitution took
three to tho Columbia's ono. On July 24
Columbia took tho Astor cup on tho Now
port courso In hnndsome stylo nnd Con
stitution went to Bristol to cbargo Its rig,
Its managers not being satisfied with its
performances. Thoy noxt came together
on August 10 In the hard raco already
mentioned. .On August 12 Columbia won
on tho tlmo allowance In a closo finish In
light and fluky winds. They started on
August 14 In n light brcczo on a wind
ward nnd Icoward course, Tho wind fell
flat and after four hours of drifting both
withdrow, being then on even terms. Then
camo tho light air Larchmont rnces in the
Sound on August 16 and 17, which Con
stitution took, ono by a largo margin and
the other by only B8 seconds. Tho two
boats came to thp Seawanhaka course Thurs

Llpton Justifies the UulttliiK.
NEW YORK, Aug. 24. Sir Thomas Llp
ton, when seen by an Assoclntod Press
representative after tho races said: "Tho
weather was bad for racing nnd I think
Constitution did tho right thing In ctopplng
whon It did. In that thick weather thero
was no use taking chances of an accident,
olthor of collision or of running aground.
Our yachts on both sides of the water havo
bad experiences enough of that kind."
Sir Thomas refrained from saying any
thing regarding tho merlta of either Colum
bia or Constitution. On board Erin, as
guest of Shamrock's owner, were Lieuten
ant Colonel Burbank and his dnughtors and
several other officers. Captain Sycamore
and Navigator Hamilton also saw the raco
from Erin, Tho forraor laughingly said to
tho nowspapor men: "You brought us out
hero to give us a soaking, what will you
do with us If wo take tho cup?"
William Butler Duncan, Constitution's
manager, when nsked why ho quit, said:
"We hovo to when tho weather got thick
and I supposed Columbia had also quit. I
shall take Constitution cast tonight If tho
weather clears and thero will bo no moro
races until tho trial races."

SENATOR DEPEW HOME AGAIN
Says Schley-Sampson Affair Is Cnus
liiK Much Ridicule in
ISurupe,
NEW YORK, Aug. 21. Senator Cbauncey
M, Dopow arrived from Europo today. Of
tho Schley-Sampson controversy ho said:
A great deal of Interest Is taken In it.
Tho fact that Admiral Schley's daughter Is
married to Mr. Wortley, an Englishman,
nnd tho brothor of the British military at
tacho at Paris, mnkcB favorablo foellng for
him ovor thore. Tho controversy Itsolf Is
not doing us any good; It is arousing con
tompt and derision toward tho American
navy and tho less said about It tho bottor."
Then tho senator turned to commerce:
"Tho nations ovor thero, I bnvo obsorved,
nro conHldcrnbly scared by our manufac
tures nnd are trying to mnke combinations
against lis, but I am in no fenr that they
will bo ablo to do It, although thoy may
act Individually. Tho two things thoy
quarrel on aro treaties and favored nation
clauses. They can't agreo among thorn
selves. It is llko a combination of railroads
ono railroad may say wo want 40 por cent,
another &0 por cent and anothor railroad 60
per cent, when thore is only 100 por cont
to divide up."

organization admitted on Friday that thero
s somoining under way that was of tho
utmost Importance and that It would bo
heard of In a fow days. This, with tho'
rumor that President Mitchell and Prof.
Jonks are in Now York instead of Chicago,
glVOS tho strontth nerisnrv tn xsftnA .v

auuauon seems to givo promlso of brighter
things during tho coming week. Tho ut
most retlconco has been notlceablo In alt
circles regarding strike matters Blnco tho
closo of tho conforenco yestorday after
noon. Their Whereabouts Unknown.
It Is not known positively that President
Mitchell went to Chicago Friday night aftor
tho conference. Neither is It known that
Prof. Jonks went there. Thero Is no rea
Bon known for tho latter going west. Thoro
were somo persons nbout Amalgamated
headquarters- today, who Bald that both of
theso visitors went to Now York Instead
of Chicago. It Is further rumored thnt they
cnrrlcd with them Information to present
to tho United States Steol corpo
ration regarding n settlement of tho strike.
It Is further rumored that thoy had the
necessary authority to net for the Amalga
mated association up to tho point of nn
official meeting between tho two Interests
concerned.
It is not nt all cortaln that tho supposed
messengers from Amalgamated hcadquar
tern wont to Now York. Their meotlng
place may bo elsewhere. President C. M.
Schwab Is said to be nbsent from Now
York and not expected to roturn for a few
days.
Both Sides Deceptive.
It Is argued today by thoso competent to
speak that both Bldea to tho fight aro in
a better mood to dlscU38 terms of a settle
ment thnn they were nt tho outset nnd
personal feelings havo boon cooled somo
what by intervening events. Both sides
have mado a strong showing. Tho Amal
gamated association has closed nonunion
plants that wero not considered a part of
its flold of Influenco, while tho trust has
demonstrated its ability to start the plnnts
with rnw material nnd mako a showing
with poor material that has surprised the
skilled men of tho organization. Ono of
tho Amalgamated officials remarked that
tho fight has demonstrated that nolthor
side could got olong without tho other
and penco by mutual concessions wna tho
only posslblo outcomo of the present diffi
culty. Should tho present nttompt provo
a success, It is said, tho wholo difficulty
can bo fixed up nnd tho men return to
work within tho coming week. Moat of tho
plants nro ready- to start as soon as Ares
can bo lighted and furnaces heated.
Tho strlko situation in Pittsburg tonight

to go to DuqucBno and Homestead for tho
purposo of its moral effect on the workers
in tho Carncglo plants at thoso placos was
