THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, AUGUST 6, 1894—-TEN PAGES, VIGILANT AGAIN WON Beating the Britannia and Satanita Around the Isle of Wight. YACHTS JOCKEYING AT THE START A Fresh, Raw Wind Delighted the Sportsmen. THE SLOOP’S FINE SAILING ers COWES, Isle of Wight, August 6.—With prospects of a splendid day’s racing, the Vigilant, Britannia and Satanite started this morning tn the big event of the re- gatta of the Royal London Yacht Club. A better course could scarcely be desired, and the weather was what the experts were pleased to call Satanita weather. The course was around the Isle of Wight, start- ing eastward, once around to make a total distance of about fifty-five miles. There were nearly 300 yachts of all sizes and descriptions lying in the roads, making a perfect forest of masts, all gay with color, when, in response to a signal from the Royal Yacht squadron castle, nearly every craft afloat “dressed ship” with multi- color flags, rainbow fashion, from stem to stern. The American yachts Atlanta, White Ladye and May were conspicuous among those flying the stars and stripes. Along the Esplanade many ensigns were flying from tall flag poles, and the balconies of most of the houses were covered with red cloth. Most conspicuous in the middle of the parade was a tall mast, from which the American flag was flying in honor of the American visiting crafts, and the thou- sands of Americans here, ashore and afloat, in order to enjoy this, the most interesting and best-attended opening of the “Cowes week” in the history of these events. Over this gay spectacle a laden sky frowned, threatening a showery day. But as a compensation a fine breeze was blow- ing, and the white caps were dancing at a lively rate. During the early morning ex- cursion steamers from Southampton, Bour- nemouth, Portsmouth, Southsea and other places, steamed into the roads. ‘The defeat of the Britannia by the Vigt- lant on Saturday last had left a very scre feeling among the greater number of Brit- ishers. But this dil not prevent people from flocking hither from all parts of Eng- land, until larger numbers were assembled than were ever before gathered at an Eng- lish regatta. The coming of Emperor Wil- liam, who, it was announced, would reach here at 8 o'clock, on board the imperial yacht Hohenzolle:n, probably attracted many in addition to those who came, hoping to see the Britannia » venge her defeat. With the day advanced the fresh, raw wind, greatly to the delight of enthusiastic yachtsmen, Increasing in force. The Vigilant, it was announced shortly before the rai allows the Satanita fifty- five seconds, owing to the reduction of the latter's sail area, and it was also announced the Vigilant allows the Britannia two min- utes twenty-two seconds, The Start. The three rival yachts gave the spectators @ pretty exhibition of smart seamanship be- fere the start, as they cruised up and dowh testing the wind, from 9 o'clock until the Starting gun was fired at 10 a.m. The grace- ful racers looked beautiful as they made for the line at the report of the gun. All three yachts started for the line carrying club- topsails and balloon jibs. The times were, in crossing the line: HM 6S. Satanita (cutter). 10° OL 00 Britannia (cutter) 10 OL 05 Vigilant (sloop). At the outset s test cceurred between the Britannia and Vigilant. The forn er was holding the wind- ward position, and the latetr tried to pass her. But the Prince of Wales’ cutter imme- diately luffed up and held the Vigilant. For a time, consequently, both yachts made lit- tle forward progress. The Satanita, in the meanwhile, rapidly forged ahead, and an idea directly struck all the spectators that the Britannia's ma- neuver if holding the Vigilant was the re- sult of a tacit agreement between the two British captains to work in unison, so that the winner of the cup would be 4 British vessel, this being a Cay of Satanita weather and the Hritar nia having but a small chance of winning. Therefore the letter could very well devote herself to harassing the Ameri- can yacht. This maneuver so far succeeded that when the Vigilant ultimately got clear the Satanita was a long way ahead. The times of ihe yachts in passing East Cowes Point were: = M.. & Satanita... 1% ll 32 Vigilant w 1 31 Britanni 10, 14 18 Satanita, thei . had a lead of 1m. 50s. at this early stage of the race on the Vigi- lant, while the latter was 44s. ahead of the Britannia. All three yachts got away in grand style, and once passed the East Cowes Point they were reaching along at steamboat speed, with part of their starboard rails submerged and leaving a glistening, foaming wake be- hind them. The times of the three yachts at Ryde Pier were as follows: Satanita. Vigilant Britanni Both Satanita and Vigilant were increas- ing their lead on the Prince of Wales’ cut- ter. At the Warner light ship Vigilant was pulling up on the Satanita, which led by only 10s. the Britannia being only 55s. be- bind the leader. ‘The signals giving the time passing Shank- lin could not be read with precision, but ap- proximately the boats passed ac these times: .

Off St. Catherine's Point, Isle of Wight, 12:55, the Vigilant was a length ahead of the Britannia and the Satanita was last. ‘This was about half way between the start and the finish. At Freshwater, Isle of Wight, the Vigilant had increased her lead. ‘The times of the yachts were: Vigilant.. Britannia i Satanita.. . OT 20 The Vigilant here had a clear lead of 2m. on the Britannia and was leading the Sata- nita by 6m. Svs. As the two leading yachts etitered to the land bay the wind, which had latterly been softening, failed altogether, and to the amazement of the sightseers ashore, the Britannia slowly crept up to the Vigilant, whose sails were flapping idly. For some time after there was hardly enough way on the two yachts to keep their heads straight and at 3:15 p.m. they were still becalmed and what promised to be an exciting con- test deteriorated tnto mere drifting. Happily the wind slightly freshened later. Passing Yarmouth, miles from hom n the following were the times of the three yachts: M. 8. Vigilant Al 0 Britannia. 3.45.00 Satanita..

From there on the Vigilant continued to draw ahead and won easily. When the breeze Shes of the yachts at the finish were: The time Vigilant 5 The Vigilant consequently won by eight minutes and twelve seconds, without count- ing her time allowance of two minutes and twenty-two seconds, which she allows the Britannia. Giving the Britannia her time allowance, the Vigilant won by five minutes and fifty seconds. The American yacht al- lowed the Britannia more time today, be- cause the course was longer, namely, fifty- five miles, against forty-seven miles sailed over in the race of Saturday last. George J. Gould, Howard Gould, Lord Dunraven and Mr. C. Oliver Iselin were on board the Vigilant during the race. The Atalanta, with the Gould family on board, and with Mrs. Iselin and son as guests, fol- lowed the race. —— WILL RETURN TO WORK. Chicago Switchmen Declare Off ‘Their Fruitless Strike.

JOSEPH, Mo., August 6.—E. M. By- ers, the millionaire banker and iron manu- facturer of Pittsburg, Pa., whose erratic doings have been the subject of much com- ment of late, is being earnestly searched for by Samuel Boyd, to whose custody Judge Ramey awarded him on Saturday. Mr. Byers was taken to the Pacific House Saturday night, where he was guarded by two policemen until morning. After the guards were withdrawn, one Shields in- veigled Byers out for a walk. As the two stepped on the sidewalk they were met by Dr. Talman, who, with Shields, hustled Byers into a closed carriage, and they were rapidly driven to Rushville, fifteen miles south, where the party bearded the south- bound Burlington train for Kansas City. The Boyd party spent the rest of the day searching the city for Byers, and left last night for Kansas City, hoping to intercept the trio. NATIONAL BOYS’ ization to He!

ON THEIR WAY HOME Successful Camp From a Military and Social Standpoint. THE LAST NIGHT'S SCENES The exclusive acccunt in The Star on Saturday of the exciting scene that oc- curred at Camp Blake the night previous, in which the provisicnal regiment of the District of Columbia National Guard and a number of civilians participated, attracted an unusually large number of persons to Marshall Hall on Saturday evening and on Sunday. The customary military routine was followed throughout the day. and after dress parade the third and last sham battle of the series was fought. Nearly 4,000 rounds of blank cartridges remained in the kands of the ordnance officer, and the en- tire quantity was issued to the men, and as a result the strife, so far as noise and smoke is concerned, far surpassed in effect those fought on Tuesday and Thursday. Finally, Major Columbus surrendered to Major Story, the defeated battalion was marched from the field under heavy escort, the ambulance corps had an opportunity to Licut. Mattingly. Lieut. Knockey. display its ability, and the sham battles at Marshall Hall for the season of 184 were at_en end. Sunday was one of rest for the soldiers. The day opened with the sun shining brightly, and immediately after reveille the camp was thoroughly cleaned and the sides of the tents raised. From the time of the arrival of the first steamer in the morn- ing until the departure of the last heat ot night the boys were kept busy en! relatives, friends, sweethearts and cer visitors without limit. As wsual, head- qvarters tent was the center of attraction, end the popular commandant had his hands full caring for his guests. Dress parade in the evening was executed —© —— Maj.

Simpson was presesited with an elaborate silver cup by the members of the Columbian Zouaves, company B, fourth battalion, the sergeant being, until recently, in command of that organization. Private E. P. Wolf of the second separate compury was badly burned about the face by powder during the sham battle on Sat- urday.

Hall, who belonged in Nebraska some years ago and who was superintendent of the Maltby building, which is known as the Senate annex, visited police headquar- ters Saturday and saw Inspector Hollin- berger. A warrant had been issued for his arrest on a charge of stealing a comb, brush and towel from the United States ern- ment two or three years ago. The warrant was sworn out by John L. Hickma1, who has charge of the Senate barber chop, who is under the direction of Sergeant-at-arms Bright. Stored away in the annex the police found two trunks, which belong to Mrs. Ella Morris. She was employed in the build- ing under Hall for five days, and her trunks have been stored there for fuily two years. These trunks were searcaxd by ine police, who had an idea that some stolen property might possibly be in them. In this, hew- ever, they were mistaken, and Mrs. Morris will again get her property. Although a warrant had been issued for Hail’s arrest, he was not deprived of his iiberty, nor wus he required to give boni. Detective Weedon, who has charge of the case, says he did not arrest the man, al- though the records show that he was ar- rested. inspector Hollinberger says there is noth- ing in the case except one towel, which, Mrs. Morris says, she was given by Hall, and this ts alleged to be tne property of the United States. it is said that the arrest of Hall was the result of an inveetigation made by a private detective, who was looking after the politi- cal welfare of Congressman McKeigham, the Nebraska populist. It appears that Hall Was interested In the defeat of the populists and had determined to send some circulars to his district, hoping to help his republican crponent. The woman, it appears, had lived at the Congressman’s house, and was also on friendly terms with Hall. The lat- ter is a Grand Army man, and the Con- gressman, it is thought, feared he might possibly defeat him at the coming election. Hall denies that he ever gave Mrs. Morris a towel. As already stated, the case will probably not be taken in court, as the police say there is not any testimony upon which the man could possibly be held. This morning Hall surrendered to Col. Bright, the sergeant-at-arms of the Senate, property valued at about comprising three rugs, a clock and a revolving chair. it is thought that now all of the property has been recovered. —_—+—__—_ SOUTHERN DEVELOPMENT. There will probably be a large attendance of southern business men and others who are interested in southern industrial de- velopment, at the meeting which has been called to convene in ihis city on Thursday and Friday, the last two days of the present month. The call for this meeting came from all sections of the south, and the gen- eral sentiment was that the gathering -should take place in Washington, as, be- sides other reasons, several matters of im- portance to Washington and the District will be brought up for consideration. Over @ thousand invitations have been sent to leading business men, boards of trade and other commercial bodies, and there is very good reason to expect that a full rey tative gathering will be in attendanc Among the subjects which will be brought up for discussion will be a government building in Washington for the permanent exhibit of the resources of the United States, as proposed in the bill introduced by Senator Walsh. The relations of rail- road transportation to the development of the south will be considered by prominent reilroad officials. Leading scientists and experts will outline their views on the pres- ent status of the development of the minerel resources of this section. Various other topics of an equally interesting character will be talked about, and the objects aimed at being to secure short, condensed and carefully prepared papers on these subjects from business standpoint, which may serve as a basis of discussion by the con- venticn. Short speeches will be insisted up- on, and no political discussion will be al- lowed. Arrangements have been made with the railroad companies by which tickets on all railroads will be sold at one-half of the round trip from August 23 to 28, good to return from Washington until September 6. —_— SERGT. DALEY REMAINS, But Several Officers Were Tranatferres From the Fourth Precinct, The transfer of the fourth precinct po- licemen, predicted in The Star some days ago, was made today, and the men sent from the precinct were scattered as much as possible, so that the old partners will no longer do duty together, and Sergt. Daley will have a comparatively new set of men in the precinct. The officers who were notified today to go to other precinots were Flathers, Barry, Byer, Kemp, Hay den, McNamara, Sanford, Hatton, Mulvey, Whalen, Fenton, Kinnamon and Murphy The men from other precincts who will take their places are Robertson, Molii, Trembo, Gleason, Als, Auguste, Rodgers, Lightfoot, Bradiey, Roberts, Banagan, Mc- Guire and pon and King. Officer r fth precinct goes to the ninth and Oficer Judge of the ninth goes to the second. It has been reported about the city that Sergt. Daley wouid go from the fourth to the second precinct, but his transfer did not materialize.

Reduced rates have been announced by all the other traffic assoe ciations, and, although it is said that these rates are not #o low as those granted by the railroads in favor of the Pythian assemblage at Kansas City two years ugo, yet they are sufficiently low to induce the attendance at Washington of large contingents from secs tions traversed by their lines. ‘The on reason the rates to Washington in "94 not 80 favorable as were those to Ka City in "92 is that during the latt pert a railroad rate war was raging. The ro trip from Washington to Kansas City in " was about $15. The rate made by all the traffic associ us, With the single exc: tion of the Western, is one fare for tl rouad trip. This is also the same rate ag has been announced by the same associas tion in favor of the Grand Army encampe. ment to convene at Pittsburg on September 12, Gen. Carnahan, commaider-in-cief of the U. R. K. P., members cf his staff, prominent Pytbians throughout the easterh: divide of the rorthwest, prominent Pythiang of this jurisdiction and the committee on transportation have all been bringing thel® influence to bear upon the officers of obstinate traflic association.
