Blmla, Russia ly virtuo of a loan con
tractcd In 1D00, lias effective control of the
customs and la giving endless worry and
trouble to traders by tnenna of assessments,
customs regulations, especially quarantine
restrictions. It Is posslhlo for Russia to
paralyzo lnitlsh trade by long detentions
of caravanb and travelers. Thu native lie
lief that Ilusslnn Inllui'neo Is supreme In
eastern I'crsla, Is having a bad political
effect.
Sir Rowland Illenner Ilassct, commls
doner of education of Ireland, writing on
tho general subject of Russian and Drltlnh
relations, says: "Wo must utrlvo for a final
settlement with Russia or gird ourselves for
it ilKht." And thu Times, editorially, says:
"Oreat Britain must decide whether It Is
compatibllo with our Interests, commercial
and political, to nllow a foreign power llko
Russia to eftnbllah Itself on the I'orslan
gulf. I'osslbly It may bo expedient to pur
chaso political peaco by tho surrender of
commercial interests which might cost too
much to defend. Hut if wo are resolved to

PARIS, Aug. 31. (New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram.) Two marriage
ngagements are cntlslng great Interest In
the American colony, which Is rapidly re
turning to town. One Is tho betrothal of
Miss Helen Morton, a daughter of ox-Oov-
rnor Levi P. Morton of New York, to
Count Doson do Perlgord. Tho othc rls tho
betrothal of Miss Nellie Harjes, daughtcor
f J. P. Morgan's Paris partner, to Dleti-
donne Lion Gardiner, eldest son of John
Gardiner of New York nnd Gardiner's
Island.
Miss Morton, who Is with her parents In
Windsor, England, Is going to marry into
ono of tho proudost families In Franco.
Count Iloson do Perlgord Is a son of the
Duke and Duchess do Talleyrand and Dcsa-
gnn and himself heir to a title and rsinles
normously valuable, not only In point of
money, but especially for historical asso-
latlon. When her chosen husband becomes
luke the present Miss Morton will outrank
very titled American In Franco except the
Duchess de la Rochefoneault. Ever since
tho tltno when Mr. Morton was Unltol
States minister to France Miss Helen, thsn
n little girl, has proclaimed her Intention
o marry a Frenchman. Two years ago tho
family was much distressed over her Infatu
ation for a penniless and rather roguish
young French diplomat sho had met nt
Florence. It was surmised, although tho
girl yiolded to family entreaties nnd broke
tho engagement, that she had remained se
cretly faithful to her first love.
The DuchcBS do Tnlleyrnnd went to Wind
sor to mnkc an official demand for the
young woman's hand. Tho wedding proba
bly will take place about Christmas time.
Tho Interest in Nolllo Harjes' engage
ment is Increased by tho fact that J. Plcr
pont Morgan's great fondness for his part
ner's daughter Is well known here. Ho Is
expected not only to conic to attend the
wedding, but oIbo to present to the bride
n superb house, completely equipped from
cellar to garret, Including stables. This Is
a promise ho often repeated when Nellie, n
mere tot, was dancing on his knee.
Nellie Harjes wns born nnd educated In
Frnnce. She made her debut In New York
society two years ngo under Mrs. John Hood
Wright.
Lion Gardiner, now 23 years of age, was
born In Germany. Ho is a graduate of
Princeton college. Tho two met a your ago
on n cruise on Mr. Drexel's yncht. Then
Miss Hnrjes went to America, visiting hor
present flnnco's parents,
Gardiner's island wns given to the family
by royal grant In 10SB, carrying with It tho
right and title of lord, which wns dropped
after the Declaration of Independence.

tho establishment and has given a carrlago

each of his sisters.
On tho other hand a largo sum Is bolng

Tho day wns perfect for an outing and

Tho track was fast nnd all the conditions
Invorable for a true running race.
Three niees were decided before the Fu

classic fixture nnd the crowd waited Im
patiently to see the starts of the 1 -year-old
world parade past tho stand on tho way to

Onco nt the post Iho crowd settled down
to wait for tho start. There wcro two
fulso breaks and tho big crowd wns getting
Impatient for tho word, when suddenly tho
familiar cry of "They're off!" rang through
the stand. It seemed to electrify th
crowd nnd everybody was on their feot
echoing the cry. At first it was a wild
scramblo for position. Snturday was tho
llrst to show, with King Hanover, Hyphen

It was a good start for all except Heno

glistened llko pinto glass in tho sunlight.
Its sails fitted It admirably with tho ex
ception of tho balloon Jib topsail, which sot
on tho homeward reach. Thus It hnd no
drawback to act as a detriment to Us speed.
Moreover, Nnt IIerreshoff,lts designer and
builder, was aboard.
All, however, wns of no avail. Constitu
tion was beaten fairly on Its merits, nnd un
less It sails better on Monday nnd Wednes
day tho committee which has tho matter
In charge may decide upon selecting Co
lumbia to meet Shamrock II.
Tho only posslblo excuse thnt tho back
ers of Constitution have to offer Is that
Constitution got tho worst of the start, be
ing Handicapped several seconds. This Is
qulto truo. It got tho worst of tho start
becauso Its skipper wns outgeneraled nnd
outclassed. Hut tho few seconds It lost
thus cannot by any means be distorted to
account for tho signal defeat administered
by Columbia.
All l'n nrnlile for New Yuelit.
Tho race was started as a dead beat to
windward, tho course being south-southeast
dead In tho teeth of a nine knot breeze nud
In smooth water, tho veiy best wenthor
for Constitution If It hnd been sailing In its
old-tlmo form. Tho wind, however, hauled
so much to tho eastward as to allow tho
yachts to steer their courses so thnt ns
u mutter of fact tho dead beat resolved It
self Into ono long and a couple of short
hitches. Tbo surprising part of tho raco
was the sagging off to leeward of Con&tltu
tlon vhen close hnuled. In n stiff brcozo
ono might havo expected to soo Columbia
beating It, but In tho wenthor that pro
vailed today It was indeed nmazlng to reo
Constitution so badly defeated. Tho haul
Ing of tho wind to tho eastwnrd of tho
courso benefited Columbia slightly, ns It
wns tho lending yncht, but It cannot with
nny Justice bo alleged that this was tho
real catiBo of Constitution's defeat.
Off Hronton's reof a gentle southeaster
blow nt 11 o'clock this morning, Columbia
wns first out to dodge about tho starting
point. Harr was at tho helm with Mr. E.
D. Morgan closo by. Aboard Constitution.
which camo out later, was Nat Hcrrcshoff,
ready to give advice. Iho steam yacht Sul
tan carried tho regatta committee.
Tho competing yachts had been remcas
tired and their racing lengths wero: Con
stltutlon 104.11 feet, Columbia 101.01 feet.
Constitution thus allowed Columbia ono
minute nnd eloven seconds over tho thlrty-
mllo courso. Twenty steam yachts and
eight sailing yachts of largo size, together
with an almost Innumerable llotllla of small
craft, wero out to see tho start.
Tho warning gun was fired at 11:35. Tht
skipper of Columbia planted his urate on
tho weather sldo of his rival, and ham
pored him In tho ububI manner, kcoplng him
under his leo.

riTTSHUHO, Aug. 31. Tho mills of tho
Cnrneglo company nt Duriuesno wero In
operation this morning ns usunl, notwith
standing thu report of last night thnt tho
plant was badly crippled and would likely
havo to closo down nt G o'clock this morn
ing. Tho (demonstration of McICeosport
strikers yesterday and tho discharge of
men suspected of being union sympathizers
would have caused, It was thought, u gen
eral strike, but such wus not tho caso. It
was claimed that tho Hcssomer steel de
partment would be (tlio todny.
Last evening a commltteo of mnployei
from tho open hearth department notified tho
foreman not to rechargo tho furnaces, ns
they wero going out on strike this morn
ing ut tho end of tho turn. Tho foromnn
Immediately notified tho olllclnls of tho mill
of tho Intentions of tho men, nnd n hurried
conferenco waa held. It was then decided
to make wholesale discharges In tho effort
to stay tho tldo of union sentiment. Thn
men discharged wcro two helpers, twenty
ladle men. two engineers, three electricians,
two boss stokers nnd two brnkemrn. Kloven
of tho discharged men wero escorted from
the works by policemen and wero not nl
lowcd to talk to their iullovv workmen
whllo going out of tho works. Sovcnty
llvo extra policemen wero put on duty nt
Dtiqucsuo during tho night nnd nro thorn
this morning. An olllclal nt Duquosno who
was seen this morning said:
"Tho works nro going nil right this morn
ing and 1 think they will contlnuo to do so.
Tho men hnvo not yet lorgotton Homestead
and I do not think they will strike."
Tho strikers nBcrt that thu ntrlko Is
practically on, nnd thnt tho men nro clean
ing up, preparatory to coming out. Thoro
wns no disorder about thn mill, though Homo
excited talking wns Indulged In. mostly by
npectntors, who had no porsonal lntorost
in tho men quitting.
Tho shutdown of tho Duqucsna stool
works would have a far-reaching effect,
seriously crippling tho American Tlnplate
company. When tho HcllHlro Steel works
closed down tho ordcra for tthplato bars
wero all transferred to Duqilesne. Slnco
then tho l)iiiUeano plant has been stocking
tho tluplato plants. Soma of them hnvo
two wpckfl supply on hand.
Denial Is made at McKecsport HiIb morn
ing of tho report thnt n break had been
made in tho strike through tho roturn o(
nbout forty men to tho seamless tubo de
partment of tho National Tubo vvorkB. It
Ih stated that tho seamless tubo department
did not Btart up, although thoro woro a
