eee 2 RELIANCE ALONE FINISHES LAST RACE FOR CUP. Shamrock Ill, Badly Distanced Misses End of the Course in Dense Fog. END OF CONTEST EXCITING. New York, Sept. 3.—The Reliance, the American cup defender, to-day won the third and final race of the series for that famous sea trophy, the America’s Cup. in a dense fog which prevented vision beyond 200 yards, she finished the race at 5:30:02, amid the accla- mations of the assembled fleet. Shamrock III, after running for more than an hour in the fog, missed the tinish line, passed by it and then returned to it from the opposite di- rection. As the Reliance was then being towed through the fleet, with the yacht’s ensign fluttering from her truck, and spreaders in celebration of her victory, the Shamrock ILI did not cross the finish line, As often said of the historic race when the America won the cup, “There was no second.” This successful result was achieved only after four futile attempts to sail off the final race and after the outcome had been admitted by Sir Thomas Lipton to bea foregone con- clusion. To day's was the eighth attempt to saila race. After one fluke the Reliance won the two following races, one by seven minutes and three sec- onds and the other by one minute and nineteen seconds, To-day's victory means that the cup is destined to remain im Amer- ica until England is able to produce a genius equal to Herreshofiin yacht 1894 Dollar Scheme Fake.

After racing for more than an hour througha blinding fog, the Reliance burst through the wall of mist upon the vision of the specta- tors on the fleet assembled at the finish line, and, heeling under agreat bellying balloon jib topsail, until her lee rail was awash, flew across the finish line almost before the specta tors could deterinine for a certainty thitit waa she.

Washington, Sept 2—Acting Secy of the Navy Darlin has decided that for purposes affecting deserters from the United States navy the Spanish war ended December 10, 1898, the date of the signing of the treaty of peace.

Sept 3.—As a result of Henry Weilbrener’s attempt Tuesday night to get to the President with a loaded revolver, arequest has been sent to secret service headquar- ters in Washington to have the force strengthened by at least three or feur men. The request was not made by Mr.Roosevelt, but by the man in charge of the secret service squad here. Many telegrams were recelved to- day from many friends of the Presi- dent, inquiring if he was really in imminent danger of being shot, as sensational stories some papers pub- lished of the incident made it appear. In reply to these inquiries the state- ment was made that Mr. Roosevelt was not at all disturbed by the affair. The crazy man did not point the revolver at Mr. Roosevelt and did noteven draw it at all. Asa mat- ter of fact, it is thought now that the man had no intention of killing the President, and went to Saga- more Hill merely to see the Pres ident about some of his queer no- tions and happened to have the re- volver with him, American Warships Will Be Recalled From Beirut. Washington, Sept. 5,—With the receipt of Minister Leishman’s re- port, which is expected to morrow or Saturday, the way will clear for the immediate withdrawal of the Euro- pean squadron from Turkish waters, and the indications are strong that Rear Admiral Cotton wiil be allowed to lose no time in returning to the Navy Department’s peace programme of “target practice,” he State Department to-d. oceasion was taken to reiterate the alngularity of purpose of the Wash- ington Government in dispatching warships to Beirut, namely to pro- tect American citizens and their prop- arty. Itisnot the intention of this Government to give ground to turopean Powers for suspicion that there is a desire or intention on the part of the United States to become involved in the Eustern question, John Brown's Whistle Found, Washington, Sept. 5.—The silver coat-swain’s whistle, with which John Brown piped orders to his men while they were at Harper's Ferry, has been discovered here in Washington by the officers of the Kansas Histor- ical society, An effort is making to secure the instrument for the socie- t ‘s museum. When Brown was captured, the whistle was taken from him by Lieu- tenant Stewart of the regular urmy, who afterward became a lieutenant general in the Confederacy. Stewart tinally gave it to Colonel Washing- ton, who in turn presented it to John Cassin, then a well-known lawyer in this city. The whistle is now in the possession of Mrs. Mary A. Cassin, who lives in Georgetown. Brown pleaded to be permitted to retain the whistle. He told Lieut n- ant Stewart that he had had it for a longtime, and be had used 1¢ in Kan- sss for the same purpose as at Har- per's Ferry. The whistle is about nine inches long, and in an excellent state of preservation. Noted Bank Thief Caught.

The sting in the final words rankles deep in the breast of Columbia and has led to such friction that the ratification of the treaty is now conceded to be practically impossible, even should there be an extension of time. Dr. Heeran, Columbian charge d'affaires, was shown the instructions to Minister Beaupre the day they were cabled, Herran was asked to notify his government to the same purport. He declined to do so. Since then the relations of Dr. Herran and the state department have been somewhat strained and the criticism passed upon the department’s action by Dr. Herran has not mended mat- ters. Secretary Hay has asked Dr. Her- ran whether or not the words attrib- uted to him in the interview are correct. If Herran admita their authenticity Secretary Hay intends tocall Dr. Herran sharply to ac- count. Bryan Helps Tom Johnson, Versailles, Sept. 5.—The Ohio Dem- ocratic state campaign was formally opened bere last night with a large and enthusiastic meeting.
