W., FAYS FOUR PER CENT INTEREST ON SAVINGS from 6 to 4.) CUT OFF THE COMMISSARY. Gen. F: "s Terrible Punishment of me Dissatisfied Followe: “Gen.” Frye, who is in command of the so-called industrial camp at Rosslyn,taught the followers of Galvin and a few others a lesson in discipline yesterday, which will pass down into history as the very quintes- sence of strategy, intended to bring mutin- ous spirits up with a short haul. In other armies a disregard of the authority of those in command is treated with a file of soldiers and a pine coffin. In Frye’s army such an offense is punished with infinitely more severity. The offenders are cut off from their customary dalliance with the com- missary department. When the condition of the industrials is taken into considera- tion such punishment makes the horrors of the inquisition seem tame in compari- son. That is what “Gen.” Frye did yester- day, anyhow. As*Carl Browne placed in his pocket all the money collected from the curious and the sympathetic on the long march of the Commonweal of Christ from Massillon to this city, including the heavy sum secured at the Brightwood Driving Park on the first Sunday of the aggreg.- tion’s arrival here, “Gen.” Frye has been doing the same thing with the funds taken in at Rosslyn. The Galvinites claimed yes- terday that the doughty “general” was devoting the money thus col’ected to his own private uses, prominent among which were railroad junkets to various portions of Virginia, and they demanded an account- ing. The Napoleon of the No-home Legion stew ex! ly wrathy at this evidence of @ lack of confidence in his honesty of pur- pose and other estimable qualities, and threw his deadly shaft. He ordered the Galvinites to avaunt, and after they had avaunted he issued an edict that none of the malcontents was to have so much as one modest and retiring army bean when the commissary was thrown open for the digestive edification of the “industrials.” There may be trouble in the camp in case this order is not rescinded, as the Galvin- ites are hungry all the time anyhow, and in case their appetites are not assuaged in some degree at regular intervals, they de- clare their intention of taking forcibly = they claim belongs to them right- 'ully. The commissary, however, scarcely con- tains provisions sufficient to repay the mu- teers for a raid. The numerical strength of the camp increases daily, but the sup- plies are dwindling, and many of the men go out daily on beguing expeditions through the surrounding country and up to fort Myer. About fifty recruits reached the place yesterday, over a score of them com- ing from the Coxey camp near Highlands, which seems to be pursucd by ill luck. Yesterday evening a severe storm of wind and rain swept over it, knocking’ the frail shelters of the men to pieces and drench- ing the occupants. The commonwealers are angry at their apparent desertion by Coxey, Browne and Oklahoma Sam,and Jesse Coxey telegraphed his father yesterday that the men were very much discontented at his continued absence. Coxey has been out in St. Paul, and a perusal of exchanges from that neighborhood shows that he has been making speeches to big crowds at various picnics and other gatherings, and has been taking up substantial collections from his auditors, as well as selling his pictures and autographs for a dollar apiece. The com- monwealers have seen none of this money, however, or provisions purchased with it. There was the usual speechmaking at Rosslyn last night, at which Frye orated and “Gen.” Kelly and his glee club sang songs. ———— Nannie G. Cook has field suit for divorce from George W. Cook.

VIGILANT WON THIS|@¢'N¢ ON cRUISERS/CONSPIRACY ALLEGED Today’s Breeze Was Too Stiff for the Britannia. THE LATTER'S BOBSTAY CARRIED AWAY A Big Lead Had Been Secured by the American. GENERAL FOREIGN AFFAIRS BANGOR, BELFAST LOUGH, July 17.— The second day’s racing of the regatta of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club opened this morning with a strong, squally westerly breeze, which promised to give the Vigilant all the wind she needed. The American yacht and the Britannia contested today for the Rear Commodore cup, valued at $250, presented by R. G. Dunville, with $125 added by the club. The second yacht gets a prize of $75. The course was the same as the one sailed over yesterday, quadrangular, and bad to be sailed over tnree times, the total distance being fifty miles. * The exact time which the Vigilant, under her new trim, allows the Britannia is not yet known and will not be public until the American yacht is measured at Kingstown. All the yachting men present here today Pronounced the breeze to be exactly what the Vigilant wanted. It was blowing strong from the west,with occasional squalls, which drove the racers through the water in a splendid manner and greatly increased the interest taken in the event. The yachts started at 11:00:12, carrying jibheaders and whole mainsails. They went through the line beam for beam, with the Britannia on the weather. The Vigilant broke tack at once for the beat to Carrick Fergus, the Britannia hold- ing in shore on the starboard tack for a quarter of a mile. ‘Ihe Vigilant undoubtedly had a breeze in which she reveled and was fast leaving the Britannia astern, showing up in the mest handsome manner and raising the hopes of her many admirers. The wind was increasing and the Ameri- can yacht was plowing into the water in magnificent style. Mark boat No. 4 was turned on the first Freund with the Vigilant 2 minutes 48 sec- opds ahead. The wind was still fresh and veered northward as the Vigilant stayed to come heme on the first round, and both yachts were able to fetch the commodore’s boat on the short leg of the port tack, the breeze afterward freeing them all the way to the mark boat. The two yachts finished the first round as follows: H.M. 8. Vigilant 12 55 38 Britannia 12 58 29 The Vigilant at the end of the first round Was 2 minutes 51 seconds ahead of the Britannia against the 2 minutes 44 seconds of lead which she had at mark No. 4, showing a gain of 7 seconds on the fourth as against a gain of 54 seconds on the third leg and 45 seconds on the second leg. The second round was finished with the following times: H. M. 8. Vigilant ... 2 34 St Britannia ae 24027 The Vigilant, therefore, at the end of the second round had a lead of 5 minutes 33 seconds, The Britannia carried away a bobstay during the third round, lowered her fore- sail, took in her topsail and gave up the race. — reached home a winner at 4h. 3m. It was afterward said that the iron band at the throat of the Britannia’s gaff carried away, and caused her to give up the race. Captain Carter of the Britannia sus- tained a bad cut on the head by a piece of the shackle, which fell from aloft at the time of the accident. THE VIGILANT IMPROVED. Altering Her Rig Secms to Have Been a Henefit. LONDON, July 17.—The Times report of the yacht race yesterday says: The Vigil- ant acquitted herself well. A westerly breeze of full jackyard topsail strength pre- vailed at the opening of the match, but heavy squalls of wind and rain passed over during the day, and the spars and gear of both vessels at times were sorely tried. The Vigilant, as in all previous matches, was more than a match for the Britannia when the wind laid on smartly, while the Britannia had the turn in softer breezes. At the end of the second round It seemed as if the Vigilant would get her maiden victory in British waters, but rhe was stopped by a lull in the wind just before @ squall, the Britannia meanwhile carrying a trickling air along which eventually landed her in a leading position. The clip- ping of her spars has doubtless improved the Vigilant in moderate weather. As she is sailing with an easier load-line, she will not suffer much in fine weather, while with a small handsail she will not carry fo much Jee nelm. The Vigilant’s day seems long in coming. There is no fault in her handling. The Times describes the third round as follows: The Vigilant made a board in shore, but the Britannia went off into the slough. At once the breeze dropped, after @ squall, and the Vigilant got it very light in the middle of the slough. The Britannia had it but little better. She was kept going, however, while the Vigilant was kept finer and did not forereach so fast in the light air. The Britannia kept steadily on and struck into the first of a breeze coming down the slough, harbinger of fain and squall. The Britannia tacked and crossed well ahead of the Vigilant, eventually weathering the mark forty-two seconds in the lead. They ran down ihe slough in a thick fine rain, with a steady following breeze. The Britannia maintained her lead to Blackhead. In a forereach of five mriles across the slough to South Briggs the Vig- lant gained twenty-seven seconds. Then in a rising breeze they beat home. The Vigilant began to- wake up and, settling under her opponent, she gatmed on every board. They had only about two and a half miles to cover, however, and the Jritannia’s position was safe. The Dakotah Won Her Race. In the race for ten-raters off Bangor, Ire- land, yesterday, the American-built Dako- tah won. Earthquakes in Mexico. ST. LOUIS, July 17.—A special to the Republic from Caxaca, Mexico, says: OM- cial reports have been received here of the sqvere earthquake that was felt through- out the extreme southeastern part of Mex- ico a few days ago. The shock destroyed many thousands of dollars’ worth of prop- erty, the most serious loss being in the mountainous district south of San Carlos, which is very remote from railway or tele- graphic communication.

The radical newspapers continue to make a fierce opposition to this measure, and M.

Arrangements have been completed at the Navy Department for the usual sum- mer cruises of the naval militia of the various states having such organizations. The reserves of New York city and Roches- ter will be sent to sea next Monday, pro- vided the cruisers New York and Columbia are in readiness by that time, of which there is at present little dou®t. The cruise will last about a week, and will include target practice and great gun drills In Long Island sound, after which the ships will Proceed to sea and give the amateur sailors a genuine taste of deep-water cruising. In order to accommodate all the militia part of the regular crews of the ships will be left at the New York navy yard. The militia. will be expected to perform the regular work of real jackies, and will have to work with them, keep the same watches, sleep in the same places, and also observe all of the same regulations. The militia officers, however, will fare better and will be given accommodations in the ward rooms. Lieut. Scheutze, who is the chief aid of Assistant Secretary McAdoo in the manage- ment of this auxiliary branch of the naval service proper, will go on board either the New York or the Columbia, and will have general charge and supervision of the cruise, He will represent the Secretary of the Navy, cnd will be expected to make a report as to the discipline and capability of the militia. The naval reserve of Massachusetts will have a deep-sea cruise, beginning probably on the 24th instant..The monitor Mian- tonomoh and some other vessel of the new navy, not yet selected, will be used for this service. The militia of Pennsylvania will be taken out on the New York soon after her return from the cruise with the New York state militia. The Columbia ts due at Annapolis Roads on the 8th of August, to receive the ‘bell presented to her by the Washington Light Infantry Corps of this city, in recognition of the selection of her name. Therefore, it will be necessary to substitute another ves- sel for the Columbia in case the New York is not large enough to accommodate all the Pennsylvania sailors. The old monitor Nan- tucket, which has been loaned by the gov- ernment to the state of North Carolina, will be used by the naval militia of that state in their sea exercises. The antiquat- ed Michigan, the only war ship on the great lakes, will be placed at the service of the naval reserves of Illinois, the only state bordering thereon which has as yet such an organization. The Californ' reserve will probably be allowed to make a cruise on the coast defense ship Monterey. None of the other states has a nav“! organization that would justify the assignment of a war ship for their use. The result of these prac- tical drills and exercises will be awaited with considerable interest at the Navy De- partment, and also by every one interested in the navy’s ha¥ingla strong auxiliary among the people similar to that possessed by the army in thestate National Guard. ———_+ os —_____ HILL MBNDS’ FENCES. pra Pay He Drives Twenty-Five Miles to Chesapeake Beach to Do It. A Washingtoi dispatéh to the New York Sun say: P Yesterday morning: Senator Hill, accom- panied by Col. McEwan, chief clerk of the Senate; Col. A. H. Mattox and Chief En- gineer Hyer of the Washington and Chesa- peake Beach Railroad! Company, made a trip to Chesapeake Beach in a carriage. They started about § o'clock, and drove to the beach via Anacostia and Upper ..arl- boro’. The measured Gistance is twenty- five miles, but Senator Hill thinks that on @ warm Sunday morning It 1s about sixty miles. By the time the party reached the beach they were all warm and dusty, and, as the place was deserted, it was proposed that they take a swim, so they all jumped out of their clothes with the agility of schoolbo: placed the garments on shore, boy fashion, and plunged into the brackish water of the bay with a shout of giee. The Senator and his companions proved to be veritable water dogs, for they dived, floated and disported themselves in the water with all the ease and grace of experts. stopped at Marl- Returning, the party boro’ for dinner. When the landlord of the ancient little hotel learned who his distin- guished guest was, with true Maryland hos- pitality, he insisted that he should stop over night. During the afternoon and even- ing Senator Hill was presented to a number of Marlboro’s most prominent citizens, and talked pol'tics with them. As an extra in- ducement for Senator Hill to remain over- night the landlord showed him the room in which George Washington is said to have slept during his visits to Marlboro’. In relating yesterday's experience in southern Maryland to Senator Gibson today Mr. Hill explained that there was a man down in that section who indorsed him for the presidency, so he went down there to mend his political fences, and added that he found them in very bad shape. ——>—_— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. Injurious to Health, P. C. Garden of E street southeast has written to the Commissioners calling atten- tion to the condition of the gutter and curb- ing on the south side of E street between Gth and 7th streets southeast. He states that the gutter has no sewer connection, and the water running down from the pump has become a nuisance, and also injurious to the health of the neighborhood. Today's Orders. The Commissioners today ordered that a public hydrant be erected on F street be- tween 25th and 26th streets northwest. That L street northeast, at the 3d street crossing, be closed during the construction at that point. Building Permits, The building permits issued today were as follows: John F, Waggaman, three brick dwell- ings, Nos. i412, 1414 and 1420 Peansylvania avenue southeast, to cost $3,000. Jas. L. Barbour, one brick private stable in the rear of Virginia avenue near 4 1-2 street southwest, to cost $500. Samuel H. Hotly, one frame dwelling on Wisconsin avenue, Georgetown, to cost $500, John F, Waggaman, two brick dwellings, Nos. 1425 and 1487 ‘Pennsylvania avenue southeast, to cost $2,000 Will We Hepaired. The frigate LancAstef, which has just re- turned from a crujse around the world, is not to be sent to the naval junk shop right away, after all. She-is one of the few wooden vessels now in "the navy, and it was generally feared that ‘her days of useful- ness were practically %ver, and that she would have to be tied up at a navy yard as a relic of other days or:be sold to the high- est bidder as wood ang old iron. She was recently inspected and, was found to be in better condition than ‘any ship that has recently returned from a foreign station. It was found also)that she can be put in gcod condition for sevenal years more active service by the expenditure of about $30,000 for various repairs, This is within the ten per cent limit of cost of repairs, and will undoubtedly be authorized by the Navy De- partment. 2 + Internal Revenue Receipts. The large receipts from internal revenue since the tariff bill passed the Senate have placed the United States Treasury in better condition than it has been for some time sus. The total receipts from all s during the first fifteen days of July $20,500,000, two-thirds of which came from internal revenue. The total expendi- tures during the same perlod were $18,000,- ooo, It is estimated that the total receipts for the present month will aggregate $35,- 000,000 and the total expenditures will not reach $30,000,000. It is not expected that the internal revenue receipts will continue to flow in at the present rate very much longer, as most of the spirits in bond have already been taken out in anticipation of an increase tax on whisky. +. + _______ The Chippewa Indians have chosen Auni- mosson to be head chief of all the Chippe- was.

If the government wins it means that ti Central Pacific of California, of Arizona and of New Mexico and of the Santa Mo- nica branch, the Long Beach branch, and, in fact, all lines which go to make up the Southern Pacific system, will be separated and operated by their own set*of officers. The combination forming the Southern Pa- cifie of Kentucky is alleged to be in a con- spiracy to retard and restrict.commerce. The bill is brought under thé same United States statute under which proceedings against the Southern Pacific striking em- ployes were commenced, as contriving to retard commerce. The Alleged “Combine.” The different lines of railroad which are embraced in the alleged “combine” are as follows: Southern Pacific company, organ- ized under the laws of Kentucky; Southern Pacific road, organized under the lews of California, and the United States of Ari- zona and New Mexico; the Galveston, Har- risburg and San Antonio Railway Com- pany; the Texas and New Orleans railway; the Louisiana Western railway; Morgan's Louisiana and Texas Railroad and Steam- ship Company; the American International Railroad Compan: the various branch lines in California and other states; the Central Pacific Railway Company; the Pacific Mail Steamship Company; the Pacific Improvement Company; the Cen- tral Trust Company of New York, conclud- ing with the names of C. P. Huntington, Charles F. Crocker, Mrs. Leland Stanford,in her own name and as executrix of Senator Leland Stanford, deceased; Mr. Stillman; Mr. Hubbard, A. N. Towne, J. A. Fillmore, D. O. Mills, Lioyd Tevis, I. H. Goodman, John A. Muir, and D. Burkhalter, who are named as citizens and residents of @ali- fornia, and Edwin F. Searles, citizen and resident of Massachusetts. The Conspiracy C-a>gea. It ir alleged the lines from San Fran- cisco via Los Angeles to Yuma, and from Ogden, Utah, to San Francisco, were con- structed by the United States through the agencies of the different companies in the sections, for the purpose of procuring safe and speedy transportation of the mails, troops, munitions of war and the public stores of the United States, and the de- fendants have combined and conspired to- gether and with other persons and corpora- tions to restrain trade and commerce be- tween and among the several states of the United States and foreign nations, and that they have ‘n furtherance of such conspir- acy combined all lines of railroad ani trans- portation companies under a single man- agement. It is further prayed that all contracts, leases, agreements and consolidations be- tween the defendants, if any, relating 10 the leasing, operation or control of any of the roads mentioned, may be annulled and declared void. The complaint concludes by Stating that all defendants mentioned are necessarily parties to the suit, and the prayer is that the court order all of them to be summoned and that subpoenas be is- sued for them. — ALTENBERGER SENTENCED. lurderer of Katie Rupp to Die o: the Gallows.
