Italian provinces still under Austrian rule.

three supposed Austrian spies were dis
covered and a tumult ensued. The alleged
spies were seised and tl.reats were made
to burn them allv. The police rescued
them from the mob after they had been

that he thought the working plans would
be ready early In the spring and that the
building could be put on th market at
that time. Mr. Burkett thought otherwise
and after eome argument Induced the su

this is done it la promised Mr. Burkett
that his pet building will be ready to go

Mr. Hill said:
I do not find anything In holy writ

authorises the watering of any stock, ex

thing that Justifies tha enrichment of men
except through the old-fashioned and
scriptural method of earning that which
they shall possess. The tremendous com
binations of capital which have formed In
recent years whereby the prices of living
hsve been Increased; the multitude of
schemes which have been devised to con
trol the channels and avenuea of trade
the unreasonable restrictions which have
been Imposed by statute upon our com
merclal freedom in the pecuniary interest
of those who style themselves the rap

of able and designing men Intent upon vast

NEW YORK, Sept. .-Not lnc th ex
citing days early in the bull campaign has
there been anything to equal the confusion
which attended the publication of the gov
eminent statement of September condition
reported In today' cotton market.
The figures, 1.2, reflect an Improvemen
in the cordltlon for the month of 2 4 per
cent, and are 1S.1 per cent abov those of
laM year. The statement proved better
than generally expected and waa followed
by a rush of liquidation that carried price
off sharply.
Earlier In the day the market had shown
a declining tendency and price at noon
were about to IS points lower. In less
than ten minutes after the report waa read
September sold at 11.13 cents, October at
10.30 cents, December at 9K rents, and
January at S.S2 cents, these being net losses
! of from 13 to 16 points.
Then rea'lzlng by early sellers relieved
the strain and led to slight recovery, with
the market very Irregular and unsettled.
NEW TORK. Sept. I.-Rellance. the
American cup defender, today won the
third and final race and the aeries for that
famous sea trophy, America's cup. In a
dense fog, which prevented vision beyond
200 yards, the defender finished the race
at 6:30:01 amid the acclamation of the as
sembled fleet.
Shamrock III, after running for more
than an hour In the fog, misled the finish
line, passed by It and then returned to It
from the opposite direction. As Reliance
was then being towed through the fleet
the yacht ensign fluttered from Its truck
and spreaders In celebration of its victory.
Shamrock III did not cross th finish line.
As often aald of tho historic race when
America won the cup, "Ther waa no second."
This successful race wa achieved only
after four futile attempts to sail eff the
final race and after the outcome had been
admitted by even Sir Th'tnos Llpton to be
a foregone conclusion. Today's was the
eighth attempt to sail a race. After one
fluke Reliance won the two following races,
one by 7 minutes and S seconds and the
other by 1 minute and 19 seconds.
A week ago today the first attempt to
sail the third race failed ond others have
failed every day this week. On the first
occasion Reliance led Shamrock to the
finish line by two miles, but failed to reach
it before the' expiration of the time limit
of five and a half hours. Today's victory
means that the cup Is destld to remain
In America until England Is able to pro
duce a genius equal to HerresholT in yacht
designing.
Finish Was Spectacular.
Rarely, If ever, has there been a more
spectacular finish than Reliance's today.
After racing for r.ore than an hour at
terrific speed through a blinding fog. Re
liance burst through the wall of mist upon
the vision of tha spectators on the fleet
assembled at the finish line, and, heeling
under a treat bellying balloon jib topsail
uotll its lee rail wa awaslv flew across
the finish line almost befor the spectator
could determine for a certainty that It was
the defeifder. Once more th Tankee boat
had added to the long string of victories
In contests for the honored old silver trophy
that carried with It th blue ribbon of th
sea.
A fleet of less than thirty vessels went
down to the familiar waters of th interna
tional course to witness this fifth effort of
Reliance to cover the course ot thJrty miles
within the time limit. It had become a
race of the American boat agair.st time In
stead of a contest of two well matched
crcft. When they rsched the lightship
a gentle southeast wind of five Vncts, that
barely vrinkled the surface of the sea,
eave t ut faint promise that this wa to be
the final day, but a hlft of the wind to
the south shortly after noon revived the
despairing hopes cf the yachtsmen, for It
tlew away the alsty haze which had been
hanging over the course nee the steterly
storm of last week. Th rsgbtta commit
tee waited until the last moment to send
the boats away nt 1 o'clock. After which
hour it had been agreed that no race .
should be started. Signal were displayed
to Indicate a windward and leeward course
of thirty miles, south and back.

The duel between th skipper begsn at
the sound of th preparatory gun and con
tinued through a series of brilliant
maneuvers in which Captain Barr again
proved his splendid seamaru-hlp by out
generaling Captain Wring until th boats
went across th line. During the fifteen
minutes before the starting gun Captain
Barr held the British boat under hi le
and for most of th time blanketed. He
never relinquished the windward position
which Reliance held when th preparatory
gun was fired. Ten minute later when
both boats were heading away from th
line Shamrock luffed and forced Reliance
about, whereupon both headed .for th line.
On th way to It Reliance held th chnl
lenger under ita lee partially blanketed. Al
ternately luffing and keeping away Captain
Barr prevented Shamrock from getting
away from him and across th line, but two
minute after the starting gun and at the
sound of th gun Indicating the expiration
of tha handicap, Captain Wringe luffed
Shamrock across th stern of Reliance and
the two, boats went across th line to
gether. Detail of th Race.
Tlie sky wss clear and the slanting rays of
the yellow western sun were painting a
beautiful marine picture with the two
yachts as center figure when at 4:20, with
almost half tha cours to be sailed, a thick
bank of fog came rolling In before a south
east wind and enveloped Shamrock In a
gray mist that shut her off from view.
Th official starting time was: Reliance,
1:01:56; Shamrock. 1:02. Shamrock III actu
ally crossed the line at 1:02:03 and suffered a
handicap of three seconds.
Both wer heading seaward but as Re
liance from th le bow of Shamrock was
backwlndlng her headaalls. Shamrock III
promptly whirled about and headed down
the Jersey coast. Reliance held In for a
minute and then followed. The maneuver
placed Rellanc to wlnward but astern of
the challenger. They went off at a awlft
pact in a freshening breese. Captain
Wringe attempted to outaall the defender
by giving his boat a good full and letting
It romp awy at a fast clip, whll Cptaln
Barr pinched Reliance close to the wind and
cleverly nursed it toward th turning mark.
Shamrock HI t first footed faster, but Re
l'ance more than made It good by outpoint
ing It.
For more than an hour they ssiled on
that tack down past the shore of Sandy
Hook and th Highlands of Naveslnk to
Seabrlght, and during all that time Re
liance stesdlly worked up to tha windward
of th beaten challenger, outpointing and
outfootlog It at th earn Urn aad passing
