were the most Interesting , The yachta made |
a beautiful picture as they raced away like
hounds. The sails , to the nautical eye , were
perfection In fit , and looked as If they might
have been carved out of alabaster so fault
less were the lines. It was soon apparent !
thatlhc white flyer was forging ahead. The
clear water began to show between them.
The Columbia not only seemed to outfloat
the challenger , but the experts saw that It
pointed higher. It was astonishing how It
sliced Its way up Into the wind. Within fif
teen minutes It had a lead of flve lengths
and from that time on the race was won.
The patriots were Jubilant and the bands ,
which began playing , never stopped until-
the race was over. Columbia seemed more
tender than the foreigner , showing yards ot
Its bronze underbody as It leaned away with
Its leerall almost awash. Steadily It con
tinued to draw ahead until within half an
hour , having unequivocally demon
strated Its superiority In windward work. It
became only a question of how far the white
flyer would beat It to the outer mark.
Ae the yachts got farther out the seas
glow more turbulent and the spray spurted
higher from the bows. Many excursionists
came to grief , and the tugs plunging through
the head seas sent the spray aloft to the
pilot house and some of them were flooded
from stem to stern. The work ot the patrol
fleet was perfect. The revenue cutters' line
ahead IP leeward and the torpedo boats' line
abreast astern held the yachts In the hollow
of a moving triangle , which changed direc
tion with each tack nnd kept the yacVi as
free from Interference as If they had been
calling In the middle of the Atlantic.
KnirlUli Try Xevr Tnntlca.
Shamrock footed valiantly , but neither
In speed nor < In pointing could It compare
with Columbia. Then the three skippers
on the challenger put their heads together
and tried new tactics. Shamrock made
a dozen short boards. Evidently its skip
pers were under the Impression that it was
quicker on its heel and better at forereach-
Ing than the Yankee boat , but Columbia
proved quite as nlmblo as Shamrock.
Timed by a stop watch both boats were fif
teen seconds In staya , and when the British
ers write homo they will tell their friends
that the white beauty was fully as clever
as the challenger at forereachlng. "When
Shamrock got through with this line of tac
tics Columbia had Increased Its lead until
It was half n mile ahead.
At the end of another half an hour , as
the wind continued to freshen , Sham
rock took In Its baby Jlbtopsall , figuring
that without this light headeall It might bo
able to hug the wind closer. Columbia
held on to Its nnd ns Shamrock did not Im
prove Its position at the enil of ten minutes
the skippers again set the sail. ly ) 1 o'clock
Shamrock was fully a mile- and a half
astern and Columbia was a winner all
over. As the -Associated Press boat on Its
way to the outer mark passed the Manning ,
Captain Evans , who was on the bridge ,
Bhoutcd : "Ain't she a peach1 ? "
Nothing could have 'been prettlor than
the way Columbia bwept urouud the
outer mark , graceful aa ; i swan. Doth
boats had edged far to the southward of
their course and as the rules required that
the mark should bo passed on the star
board land Columbia tacked down to
port and camt > over on the starboard tack
; i3 It approached the float. As It ncarcd
the float the spinnaker was like n knight's

The big balloon Jib blossomed out forty-
eight eoconds later. The few ships ot the
excursion lleet at the outer mark gave It a
rousing reception. Shamrock was al
ready hopelessly beaten.

A quarter of a mile from the homo run
Columbia crossed the path ot Shamrock , still
boating to the windward , and robbed It ot tb.3
wtad for a minute as it went past.
It was nine minutes nnd forty-nine sec nds
later when Shamrock swung arcund the Iliat
and squared away for the finish. Columbia
was already almost two miles away and In
the thickening mist .could hardly be dis
cerned , The bells In the engine rocims of
the excursion boats jingled for full speed and
they went plowing down on cither side of
the course to bo In at the death.
Sir Thomas Llpton's steam yacht Erin ,
however , remained abeam of the challenger ,
giving what encouragement he could to his
beaten boat. Sir Thomas' frloads aboard
looked fully as disconsolate as they felt.
Some of them Eccmod to have lost all Inter
est in the landscape and were hanging over
the rail looking down at the water. Sir
Thomas , however , remained on the bridge
with hif > eyes glued on the boat In which his
hope has so lately centered , nnd a group of
sailors forward seemed to be trying to make
out the lines of the vanishing Yankee In the
thick gloom. Frctn that time It was simply
a procession.
There was a soul-stirring scene as
Columbia approached the finish. The excur
sion boats had gathered there In a semi
circle to give It welcome and as It swept
across the finish bedlam broke loose. The
fiteam whistles shrieked , the sirens walled ,
Corsair , the flagship -of the New York
Yacht club , and several other yachts flung
their powder Into smoke and the multitudes
on the decks of the sldowhcelera cheered.
Corsair hauled down all Its private
signals and set Old Glory at each masthead
and gaff and taffrall. The crew ot Co
lumbia gathered aft , hurrahed with bared
heads , then as It lowered Its head sails
and toolc the towllne from Its tender the
crowd watted over ten minutes until
Shamrock had crossed and tfio fleet had
given Its stentorian expression of good

NEW YORK , Oct. 16. When the Asso

Michaels after the race C. Oliver Iselln with
Mrs. Iselln and a party of friends had Just
arrived from Columbia and had gathered
Just aft of the lltlo pilot house. There was
no particular sign of exultation on the face
of the managing cup defender , though he
did look extremely well satisfied ,
"I do not know , " ho said , "that I have
any particular comment to make. We won
today because wo had the better boat , I
have felt that all along ; now others , I think ,
will admit It. Wo are ready to race tomor

pared ( o take our chances with both. The
boat sailed well today. During the race we
did not have a. hitch or accident of any sort.
Everything stood the strain in a perfect
manner. "
The crew of Columbia was boarding the

LONDON' , Oct. 1C. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) The result of
the yacht race wao received with amazing
disappointment here. Accounts of the pre
vious contests and opinions of experts had
raised the confident expectation that the
Shamrock could not be beaten. The public
was quite unprepared for the manner In
which Columbia appears to have walked
an ay from tba challenger In a true and
steady , It not n stiff breeze. The progress
of the race was shown by Illuminated trans
parencies at several points , but the crowds ,
at flrpt large , quietly dwindled away lu
client disgust ns Columbia Increased Its lead.
Interest In the races , which had already been
seriously affected by the repeated failures
nnd absorption In war developments , has
been almost killed by Shamrock's unfor
tunate showing under fair conditions.

NEW YORK , Oct. 16. The New York
Yacht club , which haa the management of
the cup races , Is the principal financial suf
ferer by the failures. The ofllcers say that
each attempt to race costs the club ? 3,000. ,
This Includes the club steamboat , the half
dozen tup and the Incidental expenses.
It will be seen that the club has thus far
expended $21,000 In the attempts to pull off
ono race. It must expend at least $9,000
more , Inasmuch as one yacht must win three
times.
The seven flukes have cost probably not
far from $2,000,000 , which has como out of
the pockets of the people who wanted to see
the yachts meet.

ot the state from stealing the- state elections
and charged the republicans with other
states of being combined to defeat the state
democratic ticket in order to secure the re

"For this reason , " said Mr. Goebel , "we
want a democratic governor who will pre
vent" the repeal of the law. For this reason
wo want you to send two democrats to the.
legislature. I say democrats , because wo
do not want Palmer anil Buckncr demo

Captain Joseph Blackburn , brother of Sena

respondents. Bardwell wag the first stop.
An enthusiastic crowd greeted the traln. _ Mr.
Bryan said , In part ;
"Whether the next president cf the United
States Is a democrat depends samewhat upon
what you do In Kentucky this year. Four
years ago , or , rather , three years ago , Ken
tucky did not help the democratic party to
any great extent. I believe the people voted
better than the country counted. I am not
sure but we carried the- state , but I am sure
wo did not get It. Kentucky Is a democratic
state and we have a right to expect It to go
democratic In 1000.
"If the Etato goes republican this fall It
may bo dlfllcult to carry It next year. You
will encourage the republicans and discour
age the democrats If you divide the demo
cratic party. You cannot whip the repub
licans by dividing the democratic party In
two. "
Mr. Bryan vigorously denounced the war
In the Philippines nnd the present largo
standing army , claiming It the duty of the
democratic party to seek the reduction of the
army to the peace footing of 25,000 men ,
'Mr. ' Bryan also at some length paid his re
spects to President McKlnlcy's announce
ment ot the Intention to hold the Philippine
Islands and said It was the IIrut announce
ment of a president of the United States
against the spirit of the Declaration of In

declaration that congress would provide for
the government of the Islands ho said : "You
should substitute parliament for congress

titln to Ailvmiur.
NEW YOItK , Oct. 16. The Times' London
financial correspondent cables : Our mnrkots
moved much as anticipated last week. In
money ease increased dully until cixll loans
were down to 3 per cent and sometimes less.
Loans for a week are now barely 3Vi to 3&
jicr cent nnil this cheapness will probably
continue for another eight or ten days , Dis
count rates , too. have receded , until the
bolder operators gave out 4 % per cent as a
working quotation for ninety-day bills. Hut
most banks have all along refused to buy
from brokers under 4& per cent nnd the
leading houses therefore only worked at that
figure when In a position to keep blllf.
Usually , therefore , 4 % per cent was the
minimum rate and toward the end of the
week a disposition was shown to hold out
for 4 ? ; ' per cent.
It was felt that the case was deceptive
and on Thursday the liank return revealed
the unpleasant fact that the Dank of Eng-
Innd had retained only 65.000 of the week's
net Import of $833,000 In gold. It was said
to have gone Into circulation , but that Is
hardly the truth. The mo al Is bslng hoaraoj
by other banks , not before It was time , In
view of possible credit complications ahead.
The Bank of England must consequently
calculate on having to cope with both In
ternal and export demands for sovereigns at
the same time that the most Important sup
ply of gold la cut off.
tor the AVnr.
This week Parliament meets to vote money
for the African war. The estimated re
quirements vary from 0,000,000 to 10-
000,000 , but it la Improbable that the ex
treme amount will bo nskcd for at first.
Whatever money Is demanded must be bor
rowed and the proceeds , to the extent , prob
ably , of 500,000 a week , exported In gold
to the Cape. It Is a question where this
gold IB to be found. About 2,000,000 has
lately been swept up In open markets on
continental opening , but these are now be
lieved to be almost bare and no tttnto bank
abroad Is willing to spare a single ounce.
About aweek ago the German Relchsbank
told the Hamburg bankers that If they dis
counted bills for poodle wishing to take
advantage of the favorable exchange on
export gold to London It would stop their
credits. Therefore no gold is coming from
Germany after the market sweepings are
used up. The Bank of France blocks the
way , cither by refusing altogether to sell
gold , by raising the premium on the metal or
by paying light napoleons. The Russian
government and bank have just surmounted
a crisis. The Austro-Hungarlan bank has
quite enough to do with domestic complica
tions and poor Italy la struggling now with
one more bad mess. There remain Holland
and Belgium , both of whose banks have
raised their rates In self-protection. In
these circumstances , unless you will oblige
us with a few millions , the promise is that
we shall be hard put to It to pay. our way
In the next four months , and I fear that
help from vol. Is too good to hope for. It
follows that the present slackness of rates
in our market is transitory.
In otht > r respects our position Is strong.
Our foreign trade /or September shows most'
encouraging totals but the gains are duo
moro to price than to quantity , and our
business with the continent Is not , as a
whole , progressive. High prices are telling
severely on the consumption of copper and
the exports of machinery are stagnant. In
deed , but for the navy demands , the Iron
and steel trades would bo backward , for
foreign demands are slow In almost every
direction.
StocU Market Cnlni.
The stock markets have taken the out
break of hostilities with singular calmness.
Even in the Kaffir circle prices have gone
up , not down , partly because the bears have
come In close , but much moro because the
whole nation Is possessed with the Idea that
the war will be an affair otr three months.
Sir Redvers Buller expects to be In Pre
toria at tho-latest by January 31 , and hla
estimate la fully trusted. So a steady stream
of small buying orders poured In after
Wednesday for all Rand" mine shares of re
pute , but most other departments were rather
neglected , your railroads not more conspicu
ously so than our own. Investment stocks
yielding from 2 % to 1 per cent continue to
suffer by the dearnces of money. The banks
lent little below 5 per cent for end of the
month accounts nnd borrowers often paid
5',4. These rates will bo deadly to those
who have borrowed on such things as co
lonial 3 per cent stocks If the market does
not soon return to ease.

WATERLOO , la. , Oct. 16. An Immense
throng lind congregated at the elation when
the presidential train arrived this morning.
The president spoke as follows :
"My Fellow Citizens : Wo have before us
a great national problem. Wo have resting
upon Us a great national duty , growing out
of our war with Spain. When that war
commenced there wrs llttlo or no division of
sentiment among tUc people. Before the de
claration of war the congress of the United
States , under the leadership of our distin
guished Senator Allison , voted fcr n national
defense fund of $50.000,000 for the use of the
government In Us discretion. It was voted
practically without division In each house
of congress. The senator assures me that It
was done with absolute unanimity. When1
war was declared the resolution was voted
for by all parties from all sections. The
revenue bill wss passed with provisions for
money to carry on the war. So that wo
started into the war with Spain with all the
people and all the representatives of the
people standing together. The war came , and
the war was ended sooner than any similar
war In all history ; ended with the triumph
of American arms ; ended In a triumph for I
the cause of humanity. Having been united ,
In bringing on the war. having united In the I I
conduct of the war , having been practically
united In the conclusions of peace , the
question Is , shall we stand together until
the Job IB finished ? ( General cries of "Yes. " )
"We have resting upon us the great re
sponsibilities of government In Porto Rico
and In the Philippines. Our flag has been
assailed In that distant bland in the Pa
cific and I nsk the people of Iowa whether
\vo will stand firmly nnd united until Amer
ican sovereignty be established In every
Island of the archipelago. We will not take
down that flag , representing liberty to the
people , representing civilization to those
Islands. Wo will not withdraw It , because
the territory over which It floats la ours by
every tenet of International law and by the
sacred sanction of the constitution of the
United States. We are not there to oppress.
Wo arc there to liberate. We are not there
to establish an Imperial government , but we
are there to establish a government of lib
erty under law , and protection to life anil
property and opportunity to all who dwell
thereon. "

DUBUQUE , la. , Oct. 16. The citizens of
Dijbuque , the Home of Senator Allison , gave
"
the "presidential party an enthusiastic re
ception today , In spite ot a steady down
pour of rain. The president said In part :
"This Is a year of sublime patriotism.
From one end of your state to the other ,
through all sections of the west , over which
we have traveled , we have heard but one
jnuslc , the music of the nation , but one
song , the hymn of the republic. We have
seen but ono flag , the flag of our fathers ,
nnd the flag of a happy , reunited , never-to-
be-broken nation ; a flag that expresses our
hopes , our purposes and our faith , a flag
that expresses the sacrifices we are will

"I have come today , my fellow citizens ,
not only to greet you all , but to make pub
lic acknowledgment In this city of the pa
triotism of the people of Iowa. You not
only served and sacrificed for the nation In
the great civil war , giving up many of the
best young men of the state on the altar
of country that the nation might be preserved - '
served , but In the war with Spain this
state , almost the first of the federal union ,
answered to the call of the government. I
"All of your soldiers did not have service
on the firing line , but they were ready nnd
anxious to go and disappointed that they
were not permitted to go. But for them I
want to say they have , Ilka the soldiers at
the front , won the gratitude of the republic ,
'
for they did their whole duty 'and that Is
all any soldier can do. " j
