Hie naval conference met again today to
continue the discussion of the battleship
plans and It Is believed they will continue
tlielr dally meetings for some time. In tho
executive cour.cll following- the president's
speech on yentprday Mr. Roosevelt plainly
old the officers present that he wanted
"results" and would Insist on them beforn
tho conference adjourned. The. prestdnnt
ssked to be told what had been done li.
tlie conference up to the time of, his arrival
nd a good part of the hour spt'nt In execu
tive session was occupied In answering the
questions propounded by the chief execu
tive, lii,
President , Roosevelt explained to the
members of the conference that they should
not place too much credence In the criti
cisms that had been passed on the navy
by people on the outside, but said that
much adverse comment undoubtedly had
an effect on the public mind. The Ameri
can navy, In Its methods and design of
construction, as well as In Its gunnel y and
personnel, must always be kept in the front
rank, the president said, and It was to tli.i
commissioned force the country would look
for the desired results.
It has been said that one result of the
conference would be to abolish the general
board of the navy, but officials now at
tending the sittings of this council are Of
widely varying opinion i to the possi
bility or desirability of any such course.

IX3NDON. July 3.-The American protest
Hgalnst Dorando for receiving assistance
at the finish of the Marathon race has
been upheld. This makes John F. Hayes
of thfl Irish-American Athletic club the
winner of this world-famous event
Hefferon. the South African runner, who
finished third, has protested against John
F. Hayes, Irish-American Athletic club.
who finished second.
Hefferon proteted against Hayes on the
ground that Hayes had been assisted after
coming Into the Stadium.
No other person except Hefferon, who hd
not entered the Radium when Hayes fln-
ishecl. could be found to support this state
ment. J. B. Sullivan, the American com
missioner, bun protested to Lord Desbor-
ough, chairman of the British Olympic
association.
Dorando'. time was taken when he was
assisted across the finish line. It was
8:64:46. At twenty minutes before 7 the Inst
man In the Marathon came walking Into
the arena.
Dorando waa so exhausted when he wa.
carried off the track that the official,
thought fit to Issue this offlcal statement:
'Dorando, who became very ill after leav
ing the track. Is now nut of dnnger."
Italian In Dad Shape.
As soon as the Italian came Into view It
was seen that he was In Very bad shape.
He tottered brokenly toward the right
when he should have turned to the left to
make the circuit of two-thirds of the track
necessary to reach the goal. Several men
Jumped In front of him and with difficulty
pushed him around and got him going In
the right direction. He had been walked
and half tottered for 100 yards along the
cinder path and then swerved, stood still a
moment, and the next wpnt down In a
heap. A crowd of officials and followers
who were cheering him along then sur
rounded him and for a few minutes he
could not be seen. After two or three
minutes the group parted and a great
cheer went up a. the Italian, who wa.
again on his feet staggered on for perhaps
100 yards more. He made a pathetic at
tempt to trot, but thl. was too much for
him and he agin fell to the ground. The
spectacle wa. too much like the torturing
of a human being for many of the spectators.
Stimulant, were administered to the
Italian and as he tottered alcng the track
he wa followed by a crowd of attendants,
a pitiable nnrl pathetic exhibition. Crle.
of "let him alone," "don't kill him."

actually took the Italian by the arm and
wltfi another official on his other side.
lifted the runner to hi. feet and assisted
him to the tape, over which he dropped.
Hayes finished alone and no one gave
him assistance. He ran fairly strong for
the last twenty-five yard, and showed no
sign of collapse.

The starting of the Marathon race, twenty-six
miles and 385 yards to the Stadium,
the most Interesting event of all the Olym
pic games, from the east terrace of Wind
sor castle, waa a beautiful scene, which
will be memorable In the annals of sport.
Runner, from many nation, assembled
under the gigantic oak at the top of the
broad emerald lawn, which slope, to the
eastward, with the towering gray battle
ments of the castle for a background.
Crowds began to assemble along the
Marathon routo at an early hour this
morning. The roads were In perfect con
dition, watering carta and roller brushes
having been busy for many hours along
the entire course. Every cottage fronting
the course had hung out flags. The tropi
cal sun wa. considered prejudicial to the
performers, who are not accustomed to
such heat.
The green slopes beneath the wall, of
Windsor castle were thrown open to spec
tator, by the king', order and the lawn,
were packed a. the picked di.tance run
ner, of the world gradually assembled on
the east terrace of the castle.
Fifty-Five Start In Race.
Fifty-five men toed the startling line,
Wood, Canada; NeUlcbeek, Germany, wl h
drawing at the last moment.
The men were lined up In four rows
close behind one another, like flies of
troop., it wa. Impossible to string out the
huge field In one line, so the start was
mado In thl. way.
At 2:33 the crack of the pistol sent the
men off on their long run of over twenty
alx miles. Leaving the castle precincts
Longboat, the Canadian Indian, led tha
field, with the rest bunched close up.
The men went down Castlo lilll at a
good pace and on through High street,
Windsor, where Longboat and two other
Canadians led the van, with the seven
Americans and a number of other com
petitors close up. The windows and house
tops, all decorated with flags, were filled
with cheering enthusiasts, who gave the
athletes an Inspiring send-off as they
sped on their way towasd Eton. Here the
college boys had gathered by the hundreds
and the excitement reached a high pitch
as the successive groups of runners swept
by. The official time for the first two
mile, was ten minute, and eleven second,
and for the first three miles fifteen min
utes and forty-two seconds.
F.nKlMhmen 'Boo" Pole Vaulfera.
One of the best morning programs since
the opening of the Olympo games, coupled
with brilliantly flue weather, brought a
b g crowd to the Stadium early today.
The first event was the pule vault. The
refusal ot the officials to allow the Ameri
can suiters to dig a hole for their pole
has been strongly objected to, but the of
llclals adhered to the r decision and tha
Americans went In handicapped by having
to Jump with a spiked pole, an Instrument
to which lliey are not used. The first
