An informal meeting of the officers of the Grand Commandery, United Order of the Golden Cross, was held last evening, Grand Commander Waldo G. Perry presiding. After consultation, it was agreed that the grand commander offer a premium of two dollars each to every member recommend- ing an acceptable member during the pres- ent term, and that those recommending over ten new members receive in addition a Golden Cross pin. It was also agreed to hold the semi-annual visitations during the months of October and November, and that the prominent feature on those occasions would be the ememplification of the unwrit- ten work of the order. The subject of hold- ing cpen meeting by subordinate com- manderies was discussed, and will be acted on at the meeting of the Grand Command- ery in September. Encouraging reports were made of the in- creasing interest of members to extend the order by Past Grand Commander Yates, Grand Keeper of Records Graham, Grand Prelate Custis, Grand Herld Burnside and Grend Wardens Misses Lauretta Henrick and Clara R. A. At the last meeting of Anacostia Com- mandery Noble Commander Geo, J. Thomas presided. Knight D. C. Smithson, under the good of the order, suggested an expression of opinion on the proper rendition of the ritualistic work as a means of making the meetings more interesting, and thereby in- creasing the membership. Remarks were made by Knights C. F. Walson, A..M. Green, D. L. Pitcher, Mrs. E. P. Walson and others, and it was decided to have fre- quert rehearsals of the ritualistic work to carry the suggestion into effect. At the last meeting of Meridian Com- mandery Noble Commander Wilkerson ap- pointed the following committees: On good of the order, Carl F. W. Bergman, Dr. D. M. Ogden, Mrs. Elizabeth S. Dolan, Miss Lavretta Henrick, Mrs. Mary S. Keck, Mrs. Allie S. Olbert; on finance, Oscar F. Towner, Charles E. Zimmerman and John H. Skin- ner. At Halcyon Commandery last evening Grand Commander A.

Re- marks under the good of the order were made by Noble Commander Conover of Goodwill Commandery, Knights A. H. Stamp, J. C. Brown and others. Potomac Commardery held an interesting meeting last evening, Noble Commander George E. W. Slater presiding. Under the good of the order short speeches were made by Past Grand Commander Yates, Knights Burnside, Ashford, Holden, Crouch, Page, Sweeney and others.

A YOUTHFUL CRIMINAL COWES, Isle of Wight, August 4.—With a stitfish westerly breeze blowing and pros- pects of a good day’s racing, the American sloop yacht Vigilant and the British cutter Britannia started this morning in their fourteenth race, the prize being a cup val- ued at $500, to be presented by the loser to the winner. The score at the start stood ten races to three !n favor of the cutter. Never in the history of British yachting had so many yachts been gathered to witness an aquatic contest and it is doubtful if as much inter- est was ever taken in any yachting event. Both yachts were officially measured yes- terday. The figures show that the Vigilant spreads 1,200 square feet of canvas more than the Britannia, while the cutter is a foot longer than the Vigilant on the water line. The rating of the Vigilant is 169, and that of the Britannia 152; consequently the American sloop allows the cutter 2m. 4s. The Vigilant carried a crew of forty-five men, and the Britannia contented herself with a crew of thirty-six. Among the yachts which took parties of Americans were the White Ladye, Mr. A. Goelet’s; the Lasca,Mr. Jno. E. Brooke's; the May, Mr. E. D. Morgan’s, and the Guinevere, Mr. C. Oliver Isling’s. Then, of course, there were the Goulds’ steam yacht Atalanta and several excursion steamers having large parties of Americans on board. Today's Course. The course sailed over today was what 1s known as the Queen’s course. The yachts being ordered to the westward after the start off the castle here, they went west- ward about one mile and a half, to and around east Lepe buoy, leaving it on the starboard hand and then started westward, passing near the west Rramble buoy to and around the Warrer lightship, and from there back to the starting point, and once more around this cours: twice around completing the total distance of fifty miles. The yachts were compelled to pass to the northward of Prince Consort's buoy and No Man Fort, near the Warner lightship. The weather was overcast and a stiff westerly breeze was blowing when the gun was fired, at 10:40 a.m., to start the yachts on their journey. The esplanade was thronged with multitudes of spectators, including many hundreds of ladies in yacht- ing costumes, who mingled with a greater number of men wearing the uniforms of different yacht clubs. Then there were crowds of sight-seers’' from all parts of England, all eager to witness what was looked upon as certain to be a splendid race, whichever boat won. There was much excitement as the two yachts, with ordinary topsails and medium jibs and foresails, étided gracefully along, pointing eastward, until they passed the flagboat, which, out.of compliment to the Americans, was flying the stars and stripes, opposite the royal yacht squadron's castle, when both swung round, virtually together, in order to pass the line. The yachts look- ed beautiful, powerful and swift as they sped along beam for beam, with the Britan- nia on the Vigilant's port side and holding the weather position, A Pretty Sight. Their sails were filled and nothing prettier could be imagined than the sight they pre- sented as they went on the starboard tack toward the opposite shore, sailing through an immense fleet of yachts and affording all on board the latter a splendid view of the two racers before the real struggle com- menced. But the fact that the two cracks were obliged to thread their way through this fleet of pleasure craft prevented the Vigilant from getting out as readily as her opponent, much to the jubilation of the Britishers. Thus the sloop dropped slightly astern and her sails were flapping cs the Britannia naturally partly took her wind. When the boats got into less crowded wa- ter, however, the Vigilant opened out and soon drew level. Then for half a mile it was first one boat's bowsprit and then the other being in front, amid intense excitement, crowds of people running along the shore in order to see as much as possible cf them. Around Lepe buoy highland they gradu- ally forged ahead and with two tacks pass- ed the mark boat as follows; 10 56 00 tee 1 As they ran back for the Warner light- ship the Vigilant was still gaining, passing the home mark boat Im. Ils. ahead. At Ryde Pier, going eastward, the following were the times of the two racers: H. M. 8. Vigilant .. 11 30 30 Britannia 11 35 10 Here, thei 7 is had a lead of 4m. 40s, against a lead of 55s. at the Lepe buoy, showing a gain of nearly 4m. Running eastward the Vigilant gained rapidly; but in beating back against the wind the Britannia gained slightly, and she — Ryde Pier, on the return from the Warner lightship, only 2m. 10s. behind the Vigilant. The Vigtiant Leadi: A long reach brought the yachts back to Cowes for the completion of the first round. The first round was ended as follow: H. M, 8. Vigilant 12 37 15 Britannia ..... 12 41 05 It will thus be seen that at the end of the first round the Vigilant had a lead of 3m. 30s. The yachts presented a splendid sight as they reached back past Cowes. The wind had hauled around slightly southward and it was strong enough to heel the two yachts over most gracefully, every inch of canvas being filled and their bottoms show- ing up clearly, There was unabated excitement among the crowds ashore, although the enthusiasm of the Britishers was considerably dampen- ed by the manner tn which their favorite was being left behind. After rounding Lepe buoy on the second round, the yachts re- turnel in a free reach and repassed Cowes in the following times: w a lead of four minutes eight seconds. Short- ly afterward a drizzling rain began thinning the crowds ashore, But large numbers re- mained to see the race in spite of the in- clemency of the weather. Among those to brave the rain and the chance of a bad cold were, it was evident from their conversa- tion, nearly all American speculators, who, naturally, were greatly elated at the suc- cess of the Vigilant. The American yacht, on going out of sight around the eastward point of Cowes on the final round, had further increased her lead by a couple of seconds, and it was stated, if the wind held, she was bound to win easily, The Vigilant Wins. Passing Ryde Plier, going to the eastward on the last round, the Vigilant was five minutes fifteen seconds ahead. At that time Warner lightship was hidden tn a fog. When the yachts were returning and came in sight of Cowes, being about a mile from home, the two racers were timed, as follows: ‘Vigilant, 2h. 28m. 15s.; Britannia, 2h. 34m. 108. ‘The Vigilant, it will be seen from these figures, had a lead of five minutes fifty-five seconds when about a mile from home. ‘The time of the two yachts at the finish was: Vigilant, 2h. Sim, 40s.; Britannia, 2h. 44m. 30s. Consequently, Vigilant won by six min- utes fifty seconds actual time, and by four minutes forty-six seconds corrected time. Taking the starting time as 10:40, and the Vigilant’s finishing time as 2:37.40, it will be seen that she went over the course, slightly less than fifty miles, In three hours fifty-seven minutes forty seconds, roughly speaking, at the rate of twelve miles an hour. Britishers Did Not Cheer. The Prince of Wales was on board the Britannia during the race teday and Mr. George G. Gould was on board the Vigi- lant. The Britishers kept up an ultra-pat- tion last night,*surrounded by a group of happy police officials and detectives. His name is Marcus Krokserg, and the officers were glad to see him. Marcus is a trifle over nine years old, but he has made an amount of trouble that could scarcely be expected of one so young, besides making trouble fcr the police force. He came near burning up a portion of Milwaukee on sev- eral occasions. It is Marcus’ idea of fun to set fire to barns and steal horses. He has been at this work over a month, and would still be at it if detectives had not captured him. He has caused fires that he re- members of, and ran away with something like a dozen horses. Two of the fires were set on a windy night, and but for prompt action by the firemen would have resulted in serious conflagrations. In the horse stealing line he was an adept. He would jump into a buggy, drive out into the coun- try, turn the horse loose, and trudge back home. Twice he sold rigs to men for fifty ceats, saying he had just found the horse straying down the street. The boy is too young to be sent to the reform school, but steps will be taken to place him in some charitable institution. His latest feat was to steal a purse containing $35 from a Mrs. Fain. —__>__ THEY DREW REVOLVERS. Gen, Tarsney of Colorado Has a clting Experience. KANSAS CITY, Mo., August 4.—Adjutant General Tarsney of Colorado, who has been here for some days seeking to encompass the arrest of one of the gang who tarred and feathered him, came near being the victim of an as: in’s bullet at the Union depot in this city last night. It was one of the closing scenes in the dramatic play growing out of the Colorado tragedy dur- ing the recent strike and consequent fer- reting out and arrest of J. R. Wilson, one of the leaders of the marauders. Several days ago Gen. Tarsney located Wilson near Nevada, Mo., and by a neat bit of strategy and with the assistance of De- tective Peterson of Colorado succeeded getting him to Kansas City. Wilson was positively identified by Tarsney as being the ringleader of the mob that tarred and feathered him. Wilson, however, declared he was inno- cent. After some trouble, ‘Tarsney secured the proper requisition papers from Gov. Stone and the start for Colorado was ar- tanged for this evening. . Collin ex-deputy under Wils the strike trouble, and who is believed to be the man who carried the feathers on the eventful night, came to town Thursday, and, as he afterward told a reporter, was bent upon liberating Wilson. Shortly before the departure of the even- ing Union Pacific train last night, Tarsney, Wilson and Peterson were driven from the jail to the depot in a closed carriage, pre- paratory to starting for Colorado. Arriving at the depot they were met by Collins, who attempted to draw Wilson away from De- tectice Peterson, at the same time placing his hand on his hip pocket. Peterson pushed Collins aside, but the latter renewed his efforts. Finally Collins turned toward Tarsney and made a threatening motion, wherecpon Tarsney reached for his revolver, but Lefore either man could lift a hand Peterson had stepped between them and prevented what might have been a tragedy. A big crowd collected, and great excitement prevailed for a while. Tarsney and Peter- son finally reached the Union Pacific train and left for Denver. Collins had bought a ticket via the Sante Fe, and left on the same train, Ex- —_~—- THREATS FROM BANDITS, Outlaws Propose to Barn the Town of Valencia. SAN PEDRO, Mex., August 4.—There is much excitement among the people of the town of Valencia and the surrounding coun- try west of here over the threatened attack on the plece by Felipe Rojas, the noted bandit leader, and his band of brigands. The outlaws have their rendezvous in that section, and a few nights ago they attack- ed a ranch adjoining the town and killed the proprietor and four servants, who at- tempted to prctect their employer’s life. The bandits then robbed the house, after which they burned it and the other build- ings on the place. The people of Valencia organized a posse and went in pursuit of the outlaws, but did not come up with them. Rojas has sent word to the citizens by means of a letter that he and his band will sack and burn the vn because an effort was made to capture them. —_s___ Suicide and Probable Murder. RED BANK, N. J., August 4.—The little hamlet of Morrisville, near this place, was the scene of a tragedy last night which re- sulted in a suicide and probably murder. ‘The principals to the act were John Con- ners, a farmer, and his wife. Last night the couple had a quarrel, which resulted in Mrs. Conners leaving her husband. She went to her father’s house for protection. About 8 o'clock last night Conners went to his father-in-law’s house. He carried a gun with him, and stealing up to a window, shot his wife as she was sitting in the din- ing room. Conners then cut his throat. He rushed home and laid down in bed ard ex- pired before any one arirved at the house. Mrs, Conners is in a critical condition. ——— Charges Against a Postmaster. CINCINNATI, August 4—A special to the Enquirer from Mount Sterling, Ky., says that Post Office Inspector W. F. Fletcher swore out a warrant for the ar- rest of Dr. J. L. Brown, postmaster at Jef- fersonville, Ind., charging him with selling pestage stamps at a discount, with em- Lezzling postage stamps, and with falsify- ing his cancellation of postage stamps. Dr. Brown was at Lexington on a bridal tour. An attempt was made to serve the warrant there, but he had d!sappeared, leaving his bride with his trunk. as ee Journeymen Plumbers’ Convention. ST.

IN HOTEL CORRIDORS “Jack Cronin is going to start the ma- chine moving that will hang him higher than Haman up in Hartford pretty soon,” said Richard E Saules, a Conecticut de- tective, at Willard’s last night. “Cronin murdered a man named Skinner at South Windsor, and is to be executed on the 2ith of this month. The new plan by which the condemned’ man himself is made to spring the trap, so to speak, that will launch him into the hereafter, is to be tried in Cronin'’s case for the first time, and everything has teen completed for the event. After the preliminaries are gone through with in the death cage, where. by the way, the last words of the condemned will be spoken, in case he desires to sey anything, and where the religious services will also be held, Cronin's arms will be pinioned, and he will be marched out to the execution house. When he enters this place he will be stood upon an iron plate, about two feet square. Beneath this plate is mechanism that is started going as soon as Cronin steps upon it. Above the plate will hang the noose. Three attendants will accompany the pris- oner. One will pinion his legs, the other will adjust the rope and the third will put cn the black cap. The mechanism which, as I have stated, will start going when Cronin steps vpon the plate, is attached to a big ball of iron that is attached in turn to the rope, and will take about forty sec- onds to make the combination that will re- lease the weight and make it jerk the rope up. Consequently, while the attendants are arranging the last requirements Cronin will be in the act of hanging himself. In crder to prevent any accident a dial is placed in the wall where the warden of the penitentiary can see it. This will show him jest how near to falling the operating weight Is, and In case of necessity he can, by touching a lever, delay the final opera- tion of the machine.” “I am very much inclined to believe that Col. Breckinridge will be renominated in the Ashland district,” said Henry Taylor of Winchester, Ky., at the Ebbitt House last night.” He wouldn't be, however, if Owens would listen to the requests or, to be more explicit, the demands of the demo- cratic opposition to Col. Breckinridge, and withdraw from a candidacy for the nomina- nation in favor of Settle. Owens has been the deadliest foe that Breckinridge has had for the past dozen years, but he has never had the requisite courage to come out and fight him openly. He kept back, waiting for the man of the silver tongue to die or resign, but he was quick to take advantage of the recent scandal and announce himself as a candidate for Congress. Everybody out in the Ashland district is aware of this phase of the present fight for the nomina- tion, dnd while many persons do not con- done Col, Breckinridge’s grevious offenses, they don't propose to help the aspirations of anybody like Owens. Settle is regarded quite favorably throughout the district, and is looked upon as a safe man, and if Owens would listen to reason and get out of the way Settle would undoubtedly come pretty tear to the nomination. But Owens won't do his duty, according to the tie idea prevailing in Kentucky, and I reckon Col. Breckinridge will be returned to Con- gress as a result.” “So-called ‘sassiety’ of New York, row temporarily sojourning at Newport and other fashionable resorts, is proceeding to get even with the Pullman girls for their success in gaining access to the real so- ciety of Europe, whose doors have so long been closed to the majority of the members of our esteemed 400," said Andrew F. Mar- quand at Wormley’s this morning. “Ever since the daughters of the palace car mag- nate went over to Vienna and were received with generous hospitality by the most ex- clusive and aristocratic people in the world the 400 have been full of angry jealousy. Various other Americans who are now mov- ing In the first grades of the New York and Newport society have gone over to Austria with the desire of breaking bread with the Viennese exclusives, but they were turned down without even being given a Vienna roll. Consequently New York people have had it In for the Pullmans and have been awaiting an opportunity to be revenged on their prestige. The recent strike at Pull- man has given it to them. The Pullman girls are at Newport and are being rather coolly treated, while it is generally known that they will be given a cold shoulder next winter when the season opens !n New York, The reason the 400 give for this sup- posed snub is that they cannot extend hos- pitality or receive hospitality from persons who have secured their worldly means by grinding their own employes. It is a fact that a subscription paper was recently started at Newport for the benefit of the people made destitute in Pullman, HL, by reason of the stoppage of work, and that those who put their names down with sub- stantial figures behind them were the very people who had accepted the Pullman hos- pitality heretofore. It is said that some one even had the temerity to send to Pull- man himself and ask him to subscribe to the fund. On the other hand, I hear that the Puilmans will not spend next win- ter in New York, but will return to their field of European conquest to hobnob with the aristocracy again, to the dismay of those members of the 400 who have been bruising their knuckles in a vain endeavor to gain response at the doors of the conti- nental exclusive set.” “The robbery of the keg of gold that was shipped to French bankers from New York on the steamship La Touraine, and the loss of which was not discovered until the rest of the consignment reached its destination,” said Henry T. Cranmer of St. Louis at the Riggs House today, “reminds me of the loss of a money package once by the Wells- Fargo Express Company on the Northern Pacific road. Between $7,000 and $8,000 in bills were sent by a depositor of Tom Cruse’s banking house in Helena, Mont, to a correspondent in St. Louis. The package was placed in the express safe, together with other valuable bundles, and when Omaha was reached, where a transfer of the stuff was made, the parcel of bills was missing. An investigation resulted and the express manager Was arrested. He insisted that he was Innocent and could not account for the loss. His guilt appeared to be so palpable that every means known outside of processes of the inquisition was used in an attempt to make him make a confession, but without avail. He was sent to the pent- tentiary for two years, and protested his innocence as vehemently when he came out as he did when he went in.
