C. Harrison of Grand Tsland. This result was in a weasure due to the perfidy of delogates who were sent to the convention instructed by their couaty con- : ventions to work for the nomination of Maxwell, and use all honorable means ! within their power to accomplish this end. It was well known that some of these instructed delegates were 4 not for Maxwell at heart, but it was p hardly to have been expected that they would deliberately betray the trust reposed in them, and soll out the'choice of their con- stituency at the behest of the railroads. It ! transpired, however, that this was w they were thore for, and they demonstrated [ most conclusively that the corporation plug. gors had not reckona without their host in p striving to sccure places for them on the , various delegations, True it was that nearly all the instructed 1 delegations cast their solid vote for Max- ] well on the informal ballot, when there was mot the slightest possibilivy that 1 it could result in frastrating the plan of the anti-Maxwell combine by causing a nomina- tion of the chief justice, but they showed their hands #s soon as the second ballot, * which was the first formal ballot, was _ ordered, J Mallalicn Led the Break, Buffulo county was the first to throw honor to the winds and deliberately go back on 5 ats instructions. The treachery was cngi- neered by John T, Mallalieu, superintendent ! of the Kearney Keform school, and it was ; under his management that a split in the delegation was caused then and there, throw- & ing three of the twenty votes of the Buffalo contingent to Abbott of Hail, * Thisaction was recorded on the informal ) ballot, and at no time aid this delegation cast its vote in uccordance with the instruc- tions of the convention that created i, The same wos teae of the Custer county 3 delegation, from the home of the recently A impeached commissioner of public lands and § buildings. Although instructed for Max well, some of the delegates listened to the 4 persuasive pleadings of Commissioner 3 Humnhrey for a *vindication,” and from the Vf 0 yery first four of tiese delegates failed to ] cast their votes for Maxwell, and in each of the succeeding ballots suitl urth. t into i the Maxwell vote o keep up the appearance of & coutinuous and steady loss, until, on tho third formal ballot, tho delegation went solidly to Hurrison and there remaiued » Barshy Handled llmore, \ The Fillmore de Anothe which treachery onter larzel agrediont. Here the work of political as sassination was entrusted to John Barsb The vote of the delegation was vecorded for Maxwell on the informal baliot, but there iv { stovped, and off the first forn ot a fourth the delegation was recorded for - the opposition. On the secona formal ballot tho [riends of Maxwell in the delegation suc . ccoded in overcoming the influence of Bursb; anda compromise was arranged by which the solid vote was 1o be cast once for the chief justice, but it was impossible to hold the bolters in line, aud on the very next bal lot the sixteen Fillmore delogates, with & sinzlo exception, slid in a lump to Harrison, witich, togother with the action of Clay aud <y Custerin loading the vreak, paved the w for the irresistible landstide in the nest bullot 3 Of the tw ty-eight countios instructed for Maxwell, but one-haif vemained true to the trust reposed and stayed with the eliof Justice to the end, Perlkins was unother that failol to stand by its instructions and but one of its four yotes was ever recorded for Maxwell, Every sort of Means Uscd, Euissiries of the opposition displayed the most unblushing effivoutery in making bids for trowchery on the part of the Maxwell J dolegates and coerced concessions when other meaus failed 1o seeure tho desived de. fection, s Phore was an evident determinution to feat the nomination of Maxwell, cither by 4 faiv neans or foul, uad the foxy manipuly o tiou of the vote by Tom Cook requaired the I closest kind of watening on the part of P divided Maxwell dolog seo that the yote was properly recorded.

The English cutter was then a mile in advance of the Vigilant, and the point fror which they had sturted almost six hours before was yot uiiles away 1 It was akeen disappointment to the thou- sands who had stood by the rails and clung to the vautage ground on board the steamer all day. “The overpowering attraction of vhe big race between the English and Amorican prize winners drew the biggest flect that over sailed to Sandy Hook to see a yacht race. And every boat was crowded, too. Not one on board had thought other than of the outcome of the first contest of the ships, for in that reeuly rhey could foreshadow the coming contests, ‘The faiv god who looks out for landsmen, however, made a material change of the en. tire program. - rom a dull, misty, threaten. ing day, it changed toward noon to all brightness and balminess. The little wind that promised something in the morning al- most died away in the afternoon, and Just before sunset, when the hago ball glowed through a bank of mist, there was scarce rippleon the water and not more than a breath of air stivring, om- the afteriioon Would Hay Welcomed a Cyclone, Even the tail of a cyeclone, which a few of the weather bureau’s advo ised, would have been pref had prom- able to the tan- talizing catspaws that merely touched the llapping siils of the yachts, There was not much of the “wetsheet and the flowing sea” and a wind that follows fast about the race of today. It was aggravating, but it was landsmoen not yachtsmen that had the first call. They were both th re, yachtsmen and landsmen alike. They were filled with en- thustasm and hope and expectation early in the day, and when the night camo thoy simply did not know what to think, The fact that it was necessary to tow in both boats, and that there were still several wiles of the courss to traverse, made the Crowas 1roj uncertain at nightfall than they had been the previous day. Even the prospect of an ndditional race failed to turn the disappointment into joy. Follow 1 the Racors, A longr streak of craft, from iron stoamers Lo towhoats, swept past the Battery and down throurh the narrows almost from daybreale. All the way down the course to the stake boat the big flotilla followed the cracks and when they drew, like a hollow. square, of guardsmen, they resembied a miniature world's exposition more than anything else. Once around the stake boat, ut standing out for the homeward journey, the favorites of two nutions suill had the sime faithful following. What little brecze had sprung up was fair with tho racers, and screw paddles and wheel paddies were kept in motion for o fow miles run on the roturn, But it had taken four hours to reach the stake boat and it was evident long beforo the Valkyrle rounded the turn thatunless a veritable gale sprung up it would be practically impossible 10 finish the race inside the six-hour time limit. And so it proved. Fifteen minutes before the limit the yachts gave up the con- tes It was a day of thorough disappointment to the lovers of the sport. There was as a tter of fuet, no test betwe the yach: Allowing that the cutteris a bevtor model for veaching und ruuning, as all naval archi- tects do, it has to be admitted that the Valleyrie had everything her own way. Ntarted in Good Style, The wind was close 10 duo northeast, and tho regutta committee decided that the bouts should start away to the leeward for the fivst fifteen miles, and return to wind- ward. It was only forty seconds af! the starting gun was fired that the Vigilant got over the line which was drawn between the May and the Sandy Hook lightship, Jusg before the line was passed the Vigilant diopped her spinnaker boom to starbourd and hung up her big sidesall in a jiy, The Fuglish boat was about six lengths belind on the lee quartor, und succoe fed in stlting her splunaker inonly about twenty scconds less time than did the Amerlcan, Within about two miles the centerboard had gained b least halt aminute in time appar- ently, 1 alkyric's top Jibsuil was drawing very poorly, while the Vigilany's wus doing good work. There was not cnough wind to balloon out any sail on cither, but us there helped the © thun the English, Dup- the fivst two miles the breeze freshened o American b i # bit. Bearcely had the spurt made itsclf known than it died out and lefy alr tiun had ovizinally been present then the boats entored iuto i drifting o Vighant Lotk Win They were atout six niles out, with the ub pretty neavly balf 4 mile ahoad of i the Vallyrle, wildli wus on Lier westher quarter, when th i 1 the day oo- curred. ‘Uhe Vigilant wis scon to polnt off ward 5, the ¢ s though tosurprise ws ab ihe e getion, 1u teasspived luter wus exprossed by L ni's sii Lits b Guirter of ant aoade an iudica k Pl i, Ly that t crad v ) Lav atiead thut it } the English priog up. 1he W bl Lo the | soutl, und before they knew it Lhere wae &
