There is every promise of sensational de- velopments in connection with the recent cruise of the steam tug George W. Childs in the West Indies. Three of the boat's crew, discharged at Key West, threaten to make a complaint to the federal authoritles, alleging that the tug had been engaged in the filibustering business and had committed other viola- tions of the law. Several ineffectual attempts were made, these men say, to effect a landing, but all proved fruitless, and provisions becoming exhausted, the men were returned and landed on the Florida coast. The men also refer to a hot chase of the Childs by a Spanish war vessel,from which, howeyer, she escaped, owing to her su- perior speed. —_—|§\—$_+o2r—_— Senator Blackburn Gains Votes, In the democratic legislative primaries Tuesday at Lexington, Ky., Moses Kauf- man, Blackburn’s candidate for represen- tative, carried Lexington over John Riley, McCreary’s candidate.

There is a current report that the new mainsail will have an area of 7,826 square feet, the increase over the present suit being 425 square feet. If such proyes to be the fact it will be the largest mainsall ever carried by a sloop racing yacht. The area of Vigilant’s main- sail was somethins like 5,700 square feet. If the figures are correct the Defender will have a total sail arex of more than 13,500 square feet, which will be far in excess of that spread by Valkyrie II. The new, mainsail, it is said, will weigh 1,875 pounds. So far as known this will make the fourth sail that is to be provided, it being under- stood that two are bang made at Boston. oe ce these suits will be entirely of ramle cloth.

REGATTA, Honors of the Day Carried Off bythe Juntors. c The regatta of the Columbia Athlstic Club last evening brought out the largest and most enthusiastic crowd of spectators that has witnessed any aquatic event, this @ummer. The piazzas and float of the etub’s handsome boat house were crowded to their fullest extent, and many people took advantage of the delightful evening to go out on the water in pleasure boats and view the races In that way. A great many ladies were in attendance, and they cheered the victors as they crossed the finish line, and gave them a royal welcome on their return to the boat house. A nota- ble feature of the cceasion was the pres- ence of an unusually large number of old- Ume oarsmen, and in the crowd were seen the faces of many men who helped to pull boats to victory In years gone by. The sport, too, wa’ of the finest character. As a rule, the crews were well matched. and several of the finishes were of the heart-breaking order. The results of the different events will ‘have considerable ef- fect in deciding the make-up of the C. A. C. crews in the coming Potomac regatta. The junior crew won two races last evening,and made such a good showing that it will probably be kept as it is, and go into ac’ training at once. The senior crew, which has made such a good record for itself in the past, showed itself a little rusty, and will have to do some hard work to get back In {ts old-time form. Delegations from the Analostan and Po- tomae clubs witnessed the races last even- ing, and Capt. Oftley of the Potomacs acted as starter from an elght-oared barge. Capt. Moore of the Analostans was referee, and Mr. Samuel Stinemetz was judge. The first race was for junior fours, and four boats entered, as follows: No. 1—Car- ter, bow; Shoemaker, 2; Nolan, 3; Jaquette, stroke. Boat No. 2—Elder, bow; Craig, Sefton, 3; Magee, stroke. Boat No. 8. Dewdney, stroke; Wells, 2; Mooney, Blunt, bow. Stewart, 3; Boyle,. Boat No. 4—Clark, stroke; 2; Moar, bow. After the turn the first boat pulled away from the others and crossed the line a length ahead of No. 4. The second boat was third, and the third boat was fourth. Two eights entered the second event. It was won by the “white” boat after a hard- fought pull from the Three Sisters to a point in front of the boat house. In the white boat were Clark, stroke; Shoemaker, Wells, Tallmadge, Clapp, Craig, Lumsfor: Parsons, bow, and Burroughs, coxswain, In the blue boat were Magee,stroke; Lewls, Shields, Mooney, Boyle, Walsh, Dewdney, Moar, bow, and Elder, coxswain. The third event was a race between the winning junior four and the club's senior four, consisting of Eaton, stroke; Lewis, Mann and Blunt, bow. The seniors had a bit the best of it to the turn, but from that point home they were not in {t, and the juniors won about as they pleased. ‘The iast race was for singles, the two en- tries being Moar and Boyle. Boyle won by about a half length, but Mcar gave him all he wanted to do. At the close of the regatta the guests were entertained at a delightful informal hop in the boat house. AT SARATOGA. The Water is Not in Good Condition, but Betting is Lively. SARATOGA, N. ¥., July 18.—The pros- pect for the rowing races this afternoon ts not altogether favorable. While there is promise of a clear sky, the wind 1s high, causing the surface of the lake to be fleck- ed with white caps. It ts feared that this will cause the races, which are scheduled to begin at 3 o'clock, to be postponed until later in the afternoon. The program for today gives promise of fine sport. In the senior single finals J. A. Ruhmer of the Toronto R. C., John L .Hackett of Rat Portage, Ont., and W. S. McDowell of the Delaware Club of Chicago are the chief competitors. Betting men are laying money on McDowell today, his work of yesterday giving him great prestige. ‘Another contest that excites much specu- lation is the senior eights, in which the Wachussetts of Worcester, Mass., who proke the record yesterday, are to row against the famous Bohemian elght of New York and two other crack crews. In the senior doubles the odds in betting seemed to go to Hawkins and Nagle, al- though the westerners are willing to take up such bets in favor of their men—Van Vilet and Batz.

Micheel Mahoney, the old, soldier”, who was arrested the cther day and deprived of his great big revolver, was takén before Judge Miller today and given a hearing. It was suggested that the old man’s mind was disordered, although the proof showed that whisky was largely responsible for his conduct.

HAVANA, July 18,—A detachment of the second battalion of the marine infantry at San Diego Del Valle, province of Santa Clara, engaged and dispersed a band of in- surgents, Gen. Lugue, having been inform- ed that the insurgent leader Bermudez in- tended to burn the village of San Diego Del Valle. ordered a detachment of 130 men of the marine infantry and 215 volun- teers to defend the place. The troops, upon arriving at the scene of operations, found that the village was surrounded by about 300 insurgents, who had heen keeping up a heavy fire upon the little garrison. The latter resisted gallantly until the reinforce- ments arrived, when the marines, under Capt. Duenas, attacked, routed and dis- persed the insurgents, who left twelve dead and twenty wounded on the field. Bermudez and his lieutenant, Linares, were wounded. The troops lost three killed and had four wounded. Capt. Duenas, who was slightly wounded in the hard, kept on in pursuit of the insurgents, and the news of further fighting Is expected at any moment, The band ox insurgents commanded by Zayas has been routed. The chiefz of the committee of automists at Cifuentes, in the Sagua district, have raiged a band of insurgents. There wes prolonged fighting on Sunday last at Valenzuela, ncar Barancas, three leagues frcm Manseanillo. iring was heard from 9 o’clock in the morning until 5 o'clock in the evening. It is presumed that the forces under Captain General Martinez de Campos have been engaged with those of the insurgent leader, Maceo, who is known to have been concentrating the insurgents in the Corfjo and Jaguey districts. Gomez is understood to have left the Province of Puerto Principe, intending to unite his forees with those of the insur- gents at Corijo. There is said to be bad feeling between Masso and Maceo, and It is reported that the bands of insurgents un- der these two leaders are almost ready to fight each other. The cause of this ill feeling is said to be that Masso’s white men are not willing to serve under the colored cfficers, and the whites are also reported to be opposed to burning property and kill- ing defenseless people. It is added that Masso is desirous of leaving the island of Cuba. The insurgents have burned Guamo, a village on the right bank of the river Couto. ‘The five negroes who murdered two men, two women and two little girls near Gu: najay, not far from this city, a few days ago, as cabled exclusively to the Associated Press, and who were afterward captured, will probably be executed on Saturday next.
