OTTAWA, Canada, Sept. 22. Tho duke
and duchess of Cornwall and York spent
today at Rtdeau hall, resting after a week
of travel and receptions. They attended
services nt Christ's cathedral at 11 o'clock
and that was their only public nppearanco
during the day. They were accompanied
by Hon. Derek Keppel nnd n troop of Royal
Canadian dragoons formed their escort.
There wns a platoon of pollco at the door
of the church and tho police In civilian
dress mingled In the crowds on the streets
nnd about the cathedral. Tho crowds on
the bunting-dressed streets cheered the
royal couple ns thoy drovo past, hut thero
was no demonstration at the church before
tho services. Scats for tho royal party
and the count and countess of Mlnto had
been reserved and they wero Immediately
shown to them. The sermon wns preached
by Rev. Henry Kittson, rector of tho ca
thedral. As tho duke and duchess left the cathe
dral the outpouring congregation broke Into
a cheer, tho duke raising his flat In ac
knowledgment ns hla enrriago moved off.
Tomorrow tho royal party will bo taken
through tho timber slldo on tho Ottawa
river and thon down tho river to Hockllffe
In Indian ennoes and lumbermen's boats.
They are to visit tho lumber camps to boo
tho ltfo nnd partake of the faro of the
lumbermen. In tho evening there will be
a public reception In tho sennto chamber

duchebs will stand on tho speaker's throne
nnd thoso presented will merely bow before
them und withdraw.
At Melbourne tho duko shook hands with
3,000 persons In ono afternoon nnd lost tho
uso of his arm for ovor a wcelc. That ex

MEXICO, Sopt. 22. Thu cotton mill sit
nation remains depressed and discouraging.
Stares are suffering from lack of confi
dence and many mills remain overstocked
with coarser sorts of fabrics, while a few
which aro turned out superior goods, are
doing excelleut business. Rumors are rife
of tho selling out of some of the most Im
portant mills to an Important American
syndicate, who will reorganize the mills.
Introduce progressive machinery for doing
a liner grade of work ns to keep French
and English goods out of tho market nnd
eliminate destructive competition. Men
best acquainted with the Industry and
speaking Impartially say that this is tho
ono solution possible. Cotton manufacture
has been overdone by people, who have no
technical experience, who have rushed In
nnd built mills, tempted by former fabu
lous profits.

executive board of the American Smeltlnc

controlled by tho trusts.
Regarding the substitution of Texas oil
for coal In this Industry, Mr. Ouggenhelm
said "the question of oil Is only a sldo Issue
with me. We have proved beyond all doubt
that crude oil Is by far the best fuel. It
has passed beyond the experimental stage."

It was almost nn even break between
tho favorites and the field yesterday nt
tho Exposition park, track running races,
but the advantage lay slightly with tho
latter, two favorites landing first out of
llvo rates.
Uy far the largest crowd of tho meet
attended the last day's sport. There wero
fully 1,200 pcoplo on hand, nnd tho betting
was furious. This fact led bookies to bo
more generous than has been their wont
during the last two weeks, and the odds on
Indifferent choices ran higher than usual.
Tho fourth race, a mile dash, brought
out a contest that was probably tho fiercest
of the meet, nnd It wns the hit of the
day's card. All tho good horses for tho
distance were entered, thero being eight
on the schedule. Dora O and Cllco wero
scratched lute, however. That left Title

New York Topics
NEW YORK. Sept. Ifi.- (Special Corre
spondence.) If early Indications are nny
criterion, the local political cauldron Is
going to seethe with unexampled vlolonco
this year. Tammany nnd anti-Tammany
are going to have It out on strictly local
Issues and everything points to a fight thnt
will surpass the liveliest records of re
cent years. Up to tho present the Tam
many situation hns been nil at sea. It
landed with Richard Croker, late of Want
age, England. In fact. Mr. Croker Is tho
situation ns far as Tnmmnny Hall Is con
cerned. Absenteeism hns not Impaired bis
control of his Immediate subordinates In
Iho organisation, ns was the case when ho
returned from his last protracted stay
abroad. Then there was outspoken dis
satisfaction among the district leaders nnd
efforts wore made to undermine Mr.
Croker's authority. Hut the rank and file
were with him, nnd herein Iny his strength.
That ho fully appreciated It was shown by
his course. Immediately upon his nrrlval
he called n meeting of the district leaders
nt Tnmmnny Hall and went to tho heart
of tho matter with characteristic direct
ness. He had heard that some of them
were criticising his methods. Who were
the critics? Wero any of them thero pres
ent? Would any man como forward and
stnto bis grounds of objection? Nobody
stirred. Then the leader put It moro di
rectly. Picking out two or three of the
most powerful district lenders he asked
them if In tho langungo of tho Hall
they had any kick coming. Not they.
They were satisfied. Mr. Croker was all
right. Everything wns all right. Croker
proceeded to toll them what ho know of
their efforts to undermine him and an
nounced thnt the Incident wns closed.
Thoso voices which hnd roared so loudly
In his absence now attuned themselves to
fawning protestations of loyalty or pitiful
whlnlngs for pnrdon. Mr, Croker was cor
rect, as usual. Ho knew his men. Tho
Incident wns closed.
Thore Is ono aspect of tho Tammany sit
uation In tho present campaign more om
inous for Croker than was Iho outckly
squelchcd revolt of the district leaders. It
Is the widespread dissatisfaction among the
Tnmmnny workers. It tho present consti
tution of tho organization they find many
grounds for complaint. In the old davs
all Tammany men wero equal. Tho hnll
was truly democratic In that sense. Now.
however, thero hns grown up within it an
aristocracy, typified by the "club." The
Democratic club Is todny more tho center
of Tnmmnny politics than Is Tammnnv hall
Usolf. To tho big, plain building on Four
teenth street any good Tammany man could
betako hlmsolf with nn nsaured counten
ance. There Paddy'Dlvvor's toughost cap
tain voters or Martin Engel's shabbiest
henchmen wns In his own element, "among
Iho boys." At tho club It Is very different.
Thnt organization Is on Fifth avenue In it
self a damaging Indictment In the minds
of those who hnvo always been taught lo
regard tho silk-stocking district as the
homo of tho arch enemy, politically-nnd If
It has not yet nequlred exactly the Fifth
menun tone, that Is no fault of the ruling
spirit who long since decreed that evnnlng
dress should bo the order of the night thare
and that all things should bo strictly up to
the limit. To tho drawers of fat salaries and
accompanying emoluments, tho club Is a
pleasant retreat whero thev can bask con
tentedly In tho radiance diffused by great
ness, Hut the nctlve worker of tho down
town wnrd, he who has borne tho heat and
burden of tbo day when the fight has been
on, Is not so pleased with It. No "glad
rags" has herein to play tho gent In tho
now Tammany renter. At the best, he Is
but an onlooker from the outer darknes.
n Lazarus at this fenu of political plonty,
nnd ho doesn't like the part.
This dissatisfaction, combined with other
causes for complaint, has found vent In a
very decided sentiment of discontent with

not bo filled for some time.
Tammany men. nil of them of the younger
element, that Croker Is striving to bind to
hlumelf.
In the old days. If a man had a complaint
to make ho coujd find tho boss nnd tell him
about It and geP n fair hearing. You can't
get nt tho boss any more. He's got a body
guard (reforrlng- to "Andy" Freedman.
Croker's hnndy man, who is for from pop
ular among the Tammany rank and file)
who shuts you off If you nren't In tho lnsldo
ring. It don't mako nny dlfforenco how
hnrd you work for tho organization, If you
don't stand In with the circle of bootlickers
thnt surround the boss they'll get you
turned down. And the boss don't listen to
reason any more. He's had tho whole sav
ior so long that ho thinks ho can do Jmt
os ho likes. He's n regular czar; that's
what ho Is, and some of these days he'll
meet up with n hump thnt will Jnr him.
Iloforo that aort of thing comes to bo
spoken openly, there must hnve been a
vast amount of grumbling under tho breath.
Hitherto Croker has had the great urmy
of Turamany voters with him to tho Inst.
Their loyalty has been absolute, and so long
as It wns, ho could defy the leaders. It the
present discontent with him and his meth
ods spreads further It may result not onlv
In a Tammany defeat this fall, but the
overthrow of the most picturesque per
sonality In American politics ond his sun
planting by another man. Who thnt man
may be It would be impossible even to
guess Intelligently.
Thero Is n now development In tho pollco
situation furnished by Devcry himself, nnd
P Is tho strongest nntl-Devery element
thnt has yet appeared. So long os tho Dev
ery commissioner kopt his mouth shut, his
enemies were almost helplesB, Such Is tho
lognl status of a police ofilcer In this cltv.
that he lo practically, though not theoreti
cally, nbovo the law. nnd It Is doubtful
whether any legal evidence could hnve been
obtained thnt would servo ns a busls for
turning Devory out. Hut public opinion
to which Dovery Is boastfully, blatantly In
different mny yet Intimidate Tammany, a
more sensitive element, Into turning him
down, and a few more outbreaks such as
tho deputy commissioner permitted himself
at the trial of Policeman Marrlnan, will
convince even his friend Croker that ho
Is unsafe. No such tirade has over before
been heard from 0 Judicial bonch, Mnrrl
nnn, It will be remoraberod, Is one of tho
policemen who gave testimony os to the
system of blackmail practiced by the higher
ofiiclnls of tho department upon patrolmen.
Within n week ho was brought up before
Devery on tho trivial charge of appearing
for duty In soiled clothing. A reprimand
Is the common result, one day's pay the ex
treino penalty which has been hitherto In
flicted. Not only did the deputy commis
sioner fino Marrlnan fifteen days' pay, but
without permitting him to put In a de
fense, he nssallod him In terms, soma of
which are unfit for print. This Is tho spec
tuclo of Judicial calmness nnd courtesy
which Devcry afforded. Half rising from
his seal, nnd menacing tho accused with
clenched fist, be shouted:
"You'ro n bum. Now clear out of bore
nnd keep away from me. (let out, you dirty
hum, you, and eco It you can get that fine
remitted. Oo on, you bum, you loafer, you
" and hero the language of the bench
became too filthy to reproduce.
Thus did Dovery give emphatic warning
to nil policemen who may be tempted to
tell tho truth about corruption In tho de
partment. "Squeal, and I'll soak you," Is the -way
Devery would cut It.

every Inch the racing craft that It Is.
Columbia reached the More Iron works.

the yacht was high and dry and blocked up
In position for Its cleaning before the

Tho yncht had tunny visitors during tho
day, among them several yachtsmen. It
wns learned thnt Columbia Is using the
old defender's malnboom and the mainsail
with which It won the trial races at New
port. It Is not likely that nny change will
bo mado In either the boom or the sail
until after tho first race Thursday.
Crowd Vlxltx MinmroeU,
It Is safo to say that fully 20.000 persons
visited Shamrock 11 at the Erie basin drv
dock today. They stood In rows two nnd
threo deep all around tho edge of the big
stone dock, admiring the el low shining

tho morning lu company with Charles Rus

he went back on board the oteam vncht

n few hours' fall. The yacht returned
about 4 p. m.
Expert opinions were not Incklng from
those who had visited both the defender
and the challenger. Former Commodore
John C. Prague, who has perhnps won more
races with his yachts In the old davs than
nny other, snld:
"I like the shape of the Shamrock and If
Its sails nre as good as Columbia's It will
win tho cup, Its rigging Is strong nnd Its

feature Is that Its boom comes down clone

doubt of his hitter disappointment, he has
accepted the result with the equanimity of

of n gentleman. Unfortunately ho hns nut
Inspired his' friends wiih a similar spirit.
Indeed, It la not Improbable that their Ill
advised cocksureniKS before the trlnl race'?
were over had a part In the selection of tho
old defender. Ieas than n week before the
selection one of theise men, who Is a rela

tho hearing of tho writer to n number of
men who were discussing tho chances of tho
boata:
"Don't mnke nny mlstnko nbout Colum

It makes no difference what the outcome
of tho trlnl races may be. Tho committee
Is going to select Constitution. They be
llevo It Is the better boat nnd It will be
tho defender, no matter if Columbia does
beat It Tho trial races nre only for tho
purposo of tuning It up, anyway."
ThlB was tho provolllng Impression among
thoso who wero "In the know." The out
come wnn n tremendous surprise, not to say
shock. Should 8hnmrock win from Colum
bia a row Is predicted In the New York
Yacht club that will shako that organization
to Its foundations.
Never hns nows of nntlnnnl Import been
received with such apathy as wero tho re

of life by tho New York public. Hy i

wero displaying telegrams that showed the
case to bo practically hopoless; yet tho
surrounding crowds did not number one
tenth ns mnny people ns collect lo watch
the scores of an Important foot ball game.
Tho fnct was, the public had mudo up Its
mind thnt tho president wos going to re
cover, nnd, having reached thnt belief,
paid little attention to any report Indi
cating the contrary. Even tho copies of
official bulletins and telegrams In tho even
ing newspapers wero discounted. Ap
parontly It wns not until late In tho oven
Ing thnt New York awoke to tho fact that
tho chief executive was actually dying.
Then there was no oxcltomcnt; tho city
was literally stunned. After tho thenters

evening dress tnnde up n largo part of tbo
gathering. Cabs drovo up to tho curb and
stood until tho final nows came, their oc
cupants leaning out to scan each fresh
bullotln as It was chalked up. The crowds
wero protornaturally, Impressively quiet.
Policemen wero everywhere, expoctlng
sorao outbronk of emotional excitement;
they might as well have been In bed. When
tho last brief bulletins went up. "President
McKlnloy died nt 2.15," tho crowds melted
nwny with a subdued murmur. The post
midnight business nt the restnurants was
at low water mark. After tho news wns re
ceived tho people went directly to their
homes.
Of tho many anecdotes told and retold

Illustrating the universal respect and

a number of public men, nbout each of

someone cold to him:
"If ;ou come from Canton I suppose you
know Mr. MoKlnley."
"McKlnley," snorted tho man, with the
scornful accent of long hnblt. "Do I know
him? That" Ho pnnsed, looked undo
cldod and scratched his head In n puzzled
manner. "Oh. McKlnloy." he said slowly,
"he's a pretty decent sort of man."
"Can't you think of anything worse than

"No, I can't," snapped tho "knocker"

LONDON, Sept. 15. (Correspondence of

explorer, is about !o make a third attempt
to accomplish mi overland Journey u
Herltig gen hvtween Europe nnd America.
(n the first occasion, starting from New
York, he managed to reach tho Aslattu
coast of the Straights, but owing to his
capture and sulisequent ill-treatment by
Koarl. the lehuktehi ,-hlcf. ho narrowly
escaped with his life nnd had lo return.
Ulst year no again attempted tho Journev
In the rv 'rse direction, but owing to tho
political situation in Chlnn and on tho
Amur. Count Utusdotf refused to allow
him to ero.ss Siberia, and again Mr Ia
Wlndt had to relinquish the Idea. Now,
however. Mr. dc Wltult Is receiving assist
ance from tin Russian and American au
thorities. Including Commodore Melville in
Washington, ns a result of which he In
tends to start on the Journey forthwith.
To lift lnu, ini, lleluileer.
Early lu November George Harding, whii
has accompiinlei Mr. de Wlndt on nil hla
previous travels, will proceed from Paris
lo Yakutsk, where he will get together
dog nnd rilndeer tenuis and will nwnlt Mr.
do Wlrdt s arrival. On December 10 Mr.
do Wlndt will leave Paris and trnvel by Iho
trnns-Slberlnii railway direct to Irkutsk,
which place will be reached December 20.
Thence the traveler will proceed la
Yakutsk, a distance of 1,300 miles. Involv
ing n three weeks' sleigh Journey. Arriv
ing nt Yakutsk early in Januarv. Mr do
Wlndt will join Mr. Harding, who will
then have In readiness the Impedlmeuu
for the long Journey to Herlng straits A
fortnight will he spent Ht Yakutsk and
In the third week of January the Iwo trav
elers will proceed northeast over an unin
habited and practically unknown country
lo Nljnl Kollmsk, the most remote north
easterly settlement of Russia on tho Arctlo
ocean. This region Is never visited except
by nn occasional Siberian trader, although
one portion of it wns traversed hy nn
American traveler when searching for the
survivors of the "Jenentte."
Hetweeii Yakutsk nnd Nljnl Kollmsk. n
dlstnnee of l.:,no miles, transportation will
be hy means of reindeer teams. Reyond
rough government hIihu'Ics. known as
povarnl, erected every 100 versts to eimblo
a stray traveler lo light a fire, there urn
no habitations and the travelers will hnve
to sleep In the open. Thin portion of
the Journey, and especially thai over the
Veikhnyamsk mountains, will be attended
with considerable dlrtleultv.
Ainmur the liillr.
It Is expected that the settlement of
Nljnl Kollmsk, which has n population of
2.000 political exiles, will be reached In
February and there Mr. dc Wlndt hopes
to fall In with a fur or Ivorv caravan re
turning to one of the small settlements
on the shores of Retiring strait It is of
course Mr. do Wlndt's Intention to care
fully avoid OitmavlJIk, the settlement whero
he nearly lost his life, anil lo make for
East Cape. 123 miles to the north and l.SOO
miles from Nljnl Kolnnsk. rrnehlng thero
In the middle of-Aprll. Mr. d Wdt will
then crcas on the Ice to Cape Prince of
wans, tne mnst westerly point of Amer
ica, whore Hehrlng straits are only about
tho same width as the English channel nt
Dover. Should the l(e conditions be not
favorable the American revenue cutter
Hear will, by arrangement with th" Wash
ington Navy department, call for Mr.
de Wlndt and convey him across Ihe strait,
whence he will return either by way of tho
Yukon or McKenzle rlveis to San Frnn
clsto, Winnipeg nnd New York, which city.
It Is hoped, will lie reaiheil In June next
Wll He (.or.
Mr. de Wlndt's chief object Is to survey
tho country to the northeast of Yakutsk,
to which point the Russian government Is
project lag n railroad next year from
Irkutsk. Yakutsk will then he the Junc
tion of the Manchurlan mil Siberian sec

with the exception of one mountnln range,
tho country In all lint and will be surveyed
In view of n possible extension of rail
ways. On the American side survevnra
nre already working on tho northern ex
tension of the Klondike inllway to tho
shores of Hehrlng straits. Although com
paratively narrow, llm terrlllc currents and
Ice Hoes preclude the possibility of n hrldgo
