boon thousands on Monday to see tbo finlih o

lost in preptratlrns to-day. Whei
tbo jnilurs' boat arrived ol
Sandy Hook the Goncsta nnd Puritan
were both reen under weigh close up unt
Scotland lightship , the starting point. A
soon as Mr , M It , Schnyler , representing th
Oencata un the Puritan , was put on board th
latter yacht , and Fleet Chptnln Robert CenU
boarded the Goncsta to do tlmlUr duty for the
Putitat ) , the tug Scandinavian , in
charge of Messrs. S. T. Lippincot
and Mr. Oleon , was eent away
tn log out a conrso cnst-soulheatt leeward
nnd at 10:45 : tha committee boat anchored
with tha lightship bearing south-southwest
a distance of 150 fords. This formed an im
aginary line through which the yachts were
to pass , .
At this time the steam yachts Klrctra ,
Stranger , Oorsan , Vision , Sentinel. Polynia
and Skylark hnd gathered southwest of
the boat. The stnnmera Grand Ropubhc ,
Tourui , Siriuf , H. T. Buyo , and the
old Dominion line stotmthlp Richmond ,
their decks fairly black with en
thusiastic spectators , lay close by
with enough Hags living to supply a
couple of circuses. The breeze wai freehen
Ing every moment nnd the proipect of a grand
race to leeward , where the yachts could carry
their spinnakers , was mllicient to create tha
utmost excitement. When the preparatory
whistle was given nt exactly H o'clock ,
the Puritan lay about a quarter of a
mile ojtcrn of the judge's boat
headed southwest , thn spinnaker boom down
to starboard , mtln thcet hauled ait , and jib
shnet to windward ,
One minute before the starting whlstlo was
blown the Genesta came tearing across tlio
tug stern and the Puritan's bow on port
tack , hooding parallel with tbo
lino. Tnoao who were watching the inove-
mentsof both were positivoshs would crosstho
line bdforo the signal wa given , end breath-
loesly awaited tlu result. Just then the
Puritan's mam sheet was paid out Captain
Crocker put her helm down and she cimu for
tha lino. Bo linoly had the cutter's skipper
cnlcuhtod time tlint while the starting whistle
was blowing the shot across , her crow running
her immense epiniiakcr aloft as the went over
And breaking it out iu just 30 secondc. Away
she Hew to leeward , leading the Boston
sloop by 15 seconds. The latter broke
out her baleen jib ns she crossed
and cot her spinnaker in a minute alter.
What a grand picture those twoclippprya3hts
pre-on ltd ns they dashed away , with their
pyramids of snow white canvass towerIng -
Ing above their narrow hull * . All
steam yachts kept well to leeward of tbe twin
racers , and the smaller ones wcra puzzled to
keep pace with them. Official thuo of the
start was : Geneva Uh. 5m , ICd , , Puritan llh ,
Cm la.
The Puritan soon began to close the Rip
made at the start. She kept directly , in her
antagonist' ! ) wake until nearly up with her ,
when sha hauled out tu eastward so that the
Genesta could not keep c If and prevent her
passing. At 11:35 ehe took iu her balloon jib-
topsail and staysail nnd nt 11:15 : they nad
passed out ahead of the Gonesta about half n
length. Her spinnaker waa not drawing
well at tlm time , neither was her main
sail for the wind was "at main boom
end. " Captain Carter , recognizing
thU fact , took In his spinnaker nt 1. ! o'clock ,
f-ybad her main-boom , dipped her ppiunaker
boom , and set sail on port eide , all iu
live minutes. She immediately drew
nhead of tha sloop , and in half an
hour had passed her. This was
surprise , but what was cominp was a greater
ono. Fifteen minutes latter the cutter was a
good quarter of a mile iu the lead , with her
jrent white epiunakfr belaying out in a stif-
ii-ning breezn. The Puritan wou.d not gybe ,
although their spinnaker wis not drawing
and she was steadily dropping netern. Down
came tbo Genesta'a club topsail at 12 50. the
Puritan's coming in a moment Utcr. The
cutter sot a working topsail but the sloop eet
no other.
Atjl p.m. the Genesta'a spinnaker boom was
covered on deck and everything made enug
for a long beat to windward , The large pas
senger boats and bteam yachts had gathered
off the outer mark and all eyea were upon the
two boats as they cime bounding along. All
t bought then that the Genesta was winner.
Official time of the rounding was : Geneata
Ib , 05m. 30o , the Puritan Ih , 7m , 3G- .
The latter boat , with her main sheet hauled
flat aft gybod as she rounded , and in a minute
after she was close hauled on starboard tack ,
standing to the southward. The Puritan made
a wide turn , which placed her farther to lee
ward nud now commenced a grand struggle
for the finish twenty rn'lcs ' to windward.
Black , threatening clouda appeared in the
noithwest preeaging more wind for the boats.
Tbo Puritan wont about first at 1:23 : and the
Genes ta n iiinuto later. O pt. Crocker
thought it prudent to house the Puritan's
topmast at 1:20 : , as the wind was romlng fast
and heavy while an ugly sea was rising into
which the yachts plunged. Three light leech
lines on thePuritan'd jib were led aft and
when hauled taut by Gen. Paine , much im
proved the sot of the sail.
Out from the northwest at 1:45 came a
spiteful squall of wind , whistling through the
ehrouds of tbe boats , lathing tlio green waves
into foim and sending the spray in sheets
high over the yachts to windward Those on
the email tugs were drenched with the heavy
etas that boarded them. Everyone thought
.ho cuttor'ii topsail must come lu , Dowu the
vent , keeling over as she felt tbo forca of the
rquall , till her lee rail was lo t to tijiht
n a smother of glittering foam ; over yet till
.ho water was waehing up tj her ikyh'ehts
amidships , and there , was n limit. CapUin
Carter held to her course then abjut north by
east ono quarter east , for the wind had
hauled to norCh-northnost , and < ko eofintd to
rpring through choppy BOSS , which were
topped with seething white cap ? , as far to
win Iward as the eye could retch ,
The Puritan wm making excellent weather
of it at this time aud wai steadily "eating
tip" through tlm Genesta1 * leo. * > Tust baforu
she tacked at:17 : uhe was n full half mile on
the Guneata'n Ice bjw. Instead of taoklng
when elie could have crossed the Geuesta'a
bows she kept on , thereby the com
mittee nay , loeirg much valuable ( irnunc1.
The Geneeta wont about at 2:18. :
The stretch to westward proved to bu the
last ono , s Iha wind favored tha yachts , to
they wore able to fetch a finish. When Capt ,
Crocker found ho couM easily fetch tha
lightship he'atartqJtha bloop'o sheets audgavo
her a "goad full. " Sha wiu then about half a
milo cu the Englishman'n weather quar.
t r , who iileo had his main eheet
started a trilV , but was "pointing" very high.
At 3:35 : the Puritan kept broud off , and cume
"bollicit" down for the GeuteU'd weather ,
evidently Intending to blanket i er ,
Ojptaiu Carter , teeing this , put the cut-
tor's helm down uidUetly nud shot the
Genesta into the wind across his ilvul'a * tern
and took a windward poeiilon himself , al
though he lost fully three minuU'S by the
operation , Thoio was n "lulling"match for a
few momenta until the Puritan got far enough

TOBONTO , Oat , Sept. 15. [ Special to Chicago
cage Times , ] A drunken mother armed hcr-
telf with a knUe here thli morning -.bout 8
o'clock , and. prepared to cDmini'c a terrible
tragedy hf ntttinptiuR to cut the th.-oati of
her ttitoa children , about 8 , 0 and S years old.
The woman 1 : MlS. Aiiey , an j iha live *
her hwbund in Erown'a lane , rntlior di'rti > -
utablo part of the city. Tin terrible nf-
fair WA first diicoT-rcd by ft resident of the
pUca who happened to bo pawing the house ,
and , looking through the tinblimiM window
of the chiWrtn's ileoi irg apaitmttt , noticed
.Mrs. Airey nnd the little onis lying un the
bed covered with blood.
Tin sight thU mot his gaze almrwt pir-
aljzed him Mis. Ahoy was Ijing across
the foot of Ilia bed , her clothing b ep ttcrcd
with hloojvhllo the boys ptesontcd n eltkcn
ing sight.
Alfred , the cldott , about S years of Ago , was
monuing terribly , with his tight band ritcaied
Mgaluit his nick , concealing n cut that ex-
tundrd nhnoRt from car to oar. In the middle
of thu bud the baby , about 23 mouths old ,
rtclintd , ntiny rivulet of blood pouring from
n cut iu till throat. On the other ttdo of the
bed tin feconil eldest con wan found. The
pil'ow under him was deeply stained in soy-
em ! places with largo patches of blood ,
while the mitttrcea was saturated with
blood that had streamed from n danger *
oiu wound on the right tide of the neck.
The children ware removed to nn adjoining
houio and a doctor tummonod. An examina
tion of the wouuila showed that the oldest and
youngest ones had only received slight exter
nal injury , while the kuifo had penetrated the
jugular vein of Harry , partially severing it.
The ganlng wound was stitched , and the chil
dren wore shortly afterward takan to the
general hospital iu ananihulanco. A pollca-
man took charga of the murderous mother.
In the incantlmu she had also drawn the In-
stiument with which she had inflicted
wounds on the litllo ones across her own
thront , only succeeding- , however , lu raising
: ho flesh , Then , to increase the ghastly sur-
ruuudiugs of the an ful crime1 , she plunged
her hand into Iho blood ( f her victims
and drew it over her nok. She is
nippo ed to to insane. ftUot husband ia a

When well oared corn fodder thnt has

But the dork grtau , neil grovrn fodder Ic

equal to hay for winter feeding. To eave
the fodder la ( ha beat condition , Itahonld

tassel hss dried. It it has baen
grown for grain the time to cut
It l ! la when the kernel ia glazed , hut ia
yet toft enough to ho Impressed by the
thumb : nttll. When the crop has boon
grown for fodder alouo vro cut it before
iho ' blossom Las qalto faded , and when the
ears upon it are. half groKii. To cnro a
luxuriant crop of fcdder , wolphlng , whllo
Ktoen , twenty tonw per acre , Is not an
easy matter , uuloia ono gooa the right
way about it. The olalks should bo cut
closd to the surface of the ground , ao a *
to leave no stubble in the way of fitting

CHIOAGO , Sopt. 1C. The wheat market was
weak at the opening t3-day , bu developed

market wan raided early in thu day by eomo
of the big bears , but after pr coa had fallen oil

very little wheat was an sale , ? , ud the c ( Forts
of "shorts ta cover cauwd on immediate nnd
eharp advancu of J.ia from the lowest point ,
the market clo < iri ut the highest prices
oi the day current Tlura was more
outside buying , and several prominent
local bulls were noticeable , owing to tbo aon-
fldenco in which they made lar e purchases.
It was cited that rocttipts of both winter aud
spring wheat were tilt smallest of the piuscnt
crop year , while shipments exceeded the
aggregate of receipts. Oablea quoted firm
foreign market' , aud it wim o timittuil that
the amount of wheat afloat for Europe would
show a very considerable iucre.no. Tbeso
facts appeared to encourage bull traderi , and
their belief in tha advnuciug market appeared
to bacomo stronger. It vita also lumored that
the Minneapolis Millera' a'sociatlon had ad
vanced tbo price 10o a bushel. The market
closed Jo higher than yesterday ,

There was veiy little animation in trading
