B opsds s . e AT N MR w3 1, AN 8 D PROSPECT OF A FAIR WIN Indications Point to a Favorable Day for | the Second Cup Race. BOATS TAKE A LITTLE TRIAL SPIN Come Together for n Short Trush with No Apparent Adva Either One—=All Rendy fo Second st Todny. NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—The indlcations are &t midnight that the weather will be favor- able tomorrow for the second race between the British yacht, Valkyrie, and Defender Forecaster Dunn reports that the outlook now is that there will be fresh south winds and a clear sky. At this hour the wind is blow- ing from the southwest at the rate of twenty miles an hour off Sandy Hook. At Long Branch the sky is clear and the wind is blow- ing at the rate of nineteen miles an hour. Atlantic City reports twelve miles and clear sky. This afternoon both yachts went out for a trial spin. Valkyrie left her an- chorage at Red Hook at 2 p. m. under jib and mainsail, making the quarantine station in one tack. She then tacked across the Nar- pcading down the bay again on the port tack. At 2:30 she returned through the Narrows, running free under the same sail. At 3:15 Valkyrie headed down the bay again passing Quarantine at 3:20 under mainsail and Jib. When close to Port Wadsworth she went about and stood over toward Gravesend and went off the long dock south of Fort Hamilton. At 3:25 she went about again and stood down the bay. In the meantime Defender had also got under way, the two meeting off the Crescent club house, Defender on the starboard tack under Jib staysail, mainsall and club topsail. Defender, at 3:20, went close to the steam yacht Vigilant, anchored oft Stapleton, went about and headed down the bay toward the Narrows. HAD A LITTLE RACE. At 3:17 both yachts were observed from Sandy Hook in the upper part of the bay standing on starboard tack toward Coney Island. Valkyrie was in the lead and some- what to the windward. It looked as though a private match had been arranged between the two racers. The wind was from the south and blowing sixteen miles an hour. Both yachts held their relative positions until 3:49, when Defender went about and held up the bay. Valkyrie held on her tack until near the bell buoy, at the junction of the swamp and ship channels, when she also went about and, easing off her main sheet, Teaded up the bay. At 4:20 Defender passed Quarantine, bound in, and was followed fif- teen minutes later by Valkyrie, also bound in. Later both boats headed about and cast anchor oft Bay Ridge, where they will re- main until time to make ready for the race tomorrow morning. Valkyrie stock was decidedly down this morning and few could be found to venture an opinion that the boat would succeed in getting even one of the races. It was be- lieved that in smooth water, however, the British yacht might do better, but that the difference between her and the Defender was too great to be overcome. Not only the followers of Valkyrie, but those who have pinned their faith on Defender, are anxious for a blo James C. Bergen, rear commodore of the New York Yacht club, who is in charge of tho patrol fleet, has issued another circular in which he has requested the captains of the various excursion boats to be more careful than they were on Saturday. He draws at- tention to the fact that tie race is to be only ten miles to each leg and that it is absolutely necessary for the yachts to have plenty of room to turn. The World received the following from Local Forecaster Dunn, which it will print tomorrow: “UNITED STATES WEATHER BUREAU, Sept. 0.—The weather conditions for tomor- row will be governed by an area of high pressure, which s now passing off the At- lantic coast. This will probably give on shore winds, mostly from a southerly quar- ter, with a fresh breeze. The wind Is not likely to be any less than it was in the pre- vious race, and will probably be stronger, with fair weather, except that there may be a lighter haze, hardly sufficient, however, to . interfere with a good view of the race. The conditicns aitogether appear to be more prom- ising for a good race and more pleasurable to the sightseers. There wi.l be a very slight change in temperature; if any, it will be a trifle cooler than today. E.'B. DUNN.” DOES NOT GIVE IT UP. The World tomorrow will print the follow- tng interview with Captain Cranfield: “I do not think that one race wins the series, by any means,’” d Captain Cranfield last night. aturday's race was no true test of the respective merits of the boats. We la- bored under great disadvantage. These ex- cursion steamers gave us a'l thelr backwash and they particularly hampered us on the way home. I think it is an outrage the way they treated us. We are here for sport, and wo have a good boat, but if they interfere with our safling as they did Saturday we will never find out what the boat can do.” “Do you think you will stand a better chance if there s a good stiff breeze?” “Indecd 1 do; give us a good stiff breeze _and wo will surely win. I think Valkyrie will do well in stiff weather. If the wind had hauled to the south Saturday Valkyrie would surely have turned the mark first. A race in such a fluky wind is no test at all."” At an informal meeting of members of the New York Yacht elub tonight the regatta committee delogated J. R. Busk to repr sent the cup committee on board Valkyrie at tomorrow’s race. It was also learned that David Henderson, Lord Dunraven's riesd, will represent the British interests on board’ Defender, No oflicial action of any other kind in connection with the race was taken. Mr. Busk was the owner of the sloop ‘Mischief, which in 1579 defended the Ame ‘s _cup against the sloop Atlanta, of ub, Lake Ontario. w wiil be an equilateral triangle, ten_miles to a side, starting, if possible, off Sandy Hook, the regatta com- “mittee having the option of changing the starting point to another location at the last moment. The course will be lald out 80 as to give the yachts a beat to windward on one leg. One turn will be right_out to sea and the other will be either off Long Branch on the Long Island shore or off Long Branch on the New Jersey side. The preparatory signal gun will be fired at 10:50 *and the starting gun at 11 o'clock. The boa will have two minutes in which to cross . the line and be timed. SAY THE BETTER BOAT WON. English Papers Admit that the Yncht Kuce Waus Fairly Satled LONDON, Sept. 9.—The Pall Mall Gazett in its comments this afternoon on the inter- national yacht race of Saturday, says: “We fear there is no America’s cup this year for Lord Dunraven. The better boat won as it is likely to win every time. The chief defect of Valkyrie, to which we have on several occaslons alluded, 1s the fuss she makes golng through the water. The conditions of the first match, therefore, were much against her. With a calm surface sho may do better, but in stronger winds she is not likely to do so0 well. English yachtsmen may console themselves as best they can with recollections of Britannia’s triumphs over Navahoo and Vigilant." In another place the Pall Mall Gazette says that the excursion steamers following the yachts behaved even more dlsgracofully than usual, but that there is no suggestion that they hampered one of the boats more than one of the other. “Perhaps the most dis- appolnting feature,” adds the Gazette, “ly the Detender's gain on the broad reach home, when there was 1o rough water." All the London papers dwell upon the erowding of the course by excursion steamers. The Sun says: ““There Is no nation that we would rather take a beating from than ‘America, especiaily as probably no other could administer it." The Star says that the defeat of Valkyrie 15 far from being a disastrous one, and that there 13 no need to lose hope. The Evening News does not see much hope that Valkyrie will win in the coming matehes. This paper also comments upon the enormous expense of bullding and equipplog Defender, ‘whose success, It suys, is another triwmaph of the almighty dollar. “Englishmen generally will be ready to echo the stralghtforward vordict of Lord Dunraven' that we were fairly beaten.” The 8t. James Gasette finds smail comfort for Englieh yachtsmen in the result of the first heat. GAMES OF THE NATIONAL represontative Baltimore Gets th Cleveland hy Hoffer's Pitehing.

Umpire CASE HOLDS THE CH and ONSHIP, De Roy Austin Fails in His Declsive Contest at Kansas City KANSAS CITY, Sept. 9.—George (s mains the lawn tennis champion of M lowa, Kansas and Nebraska, and the holder of the Jaccard gold medal won by him last summer. At the Dykington elub courts this afternoon he beat De Roy Austin of Omaha in_some of the finest playing ever seen h The first set started with both players playing warily, yet sharply. Cise forced th playing from the start, and was soon ahead Austin seemd to be wirming up and allowed his opponent to win, without troubling him self particularl: The set went to Case by the score of 6- 1 did much better on the second set then beginning to find out what se's weak points were, and he began an offensive game. Case led at the start, but Austin kept up with him until the score was a deuce one. Case won eventually hy the score 8-6, It was In the third set that Austin showed that he had not been E” ng at his best. He braced up decidedly, "and, taking ad- vantage of Case’s inclination to let up, he won his first et quite handily by the score 6-3, The fourth set brought out by far the best tennis of the day, Case began in rapid style, and by reps lobbing and smashes soon ran the score up to 4-1. Then Austin gathered himself together and by dint of the prettiest placing on the side lines and cross court returns, which were both swift and accurate, he won two games in succes- the score 4-3. Case won the sion, making next, and the Score was with the set and 'championship but one’ game away. Austin saw his need of some desperate playing, and _he swiftly fulfilled his own ex- pectations. Some of his back hand returns were simply wonderful. It is doubtful whether he ever did better playing than he did_during this set. He won three games In succession, running Case fairly off his feet by his drives. . The score was now 6-5. Case rallled, but it was of no avail, for Austin took 'the odd game as he had taken the others, and the set was his, 7-5. The last set was a_disappointment, for Austin id not begin to do the playing he did a few minutes before. He seemed to play carelessly, for he kept driving the ball out of court and chopping it into the net. When he should have played his best he let down. The set and match went to Case by the score 6-3. Summary, singles, cham- plonship reund: George Case of Kansas City beat De Roy Austin of Omaha (challenger), 6-3, 8-6, 3-6, 57, 6-3.

IW YORK, Sept. 9.—A morning paj will print a report that Champlon Corbett's frierds do not belleve the fight with Fitz- simmons will come off, and that conse- quently he is not in training. An inter is glven with Parson Davies, who say! “I saw Corbett about a week ago and I did not like his looks. He does not appear to have the life and energy which he for- merly possessed and his eyes were dull and listless, 1 attributed this to the fact that he had been knocking about the country a great deal, playing ball, attending theatrical performances, keeping late hours and othe dissipations. ' Corbett is a wonderful man though and a great fighter. If he trains and enters the ring in fit condition fhere is no doubt but he will wh itzsimmons. Bob, however, is in great condition at this time, and will put up an awful fight, It Jim ‘is not right up to the mark he may Suffer defeat. I don’t attach much im- portance to what I hear of the condition of the two men, for I don't belleve they will meet, at least not in Texas, When a gov- ernor of a state announces that he will stop a prize fight he usually means what he says, and In (his instance I think Culberson s in t Another of Corbett's friends, Al Smith, says: “Oh, Jim don’t need much training. Five or #ix weeks will suffice. He will do ample training in time to meet his opponent. Fitzsimmons 1s working hard and credit to himself, but the fight, if it oc will result in a victory for Corbett.” Not wo Sensntionnl Finixhes.

Daxon, bicycle dealer, whose plai of business has been at 401 North Sixteenth street, was arrested yesterday afternoon on a warrant fssued from the office of Justice of the Peace Cockrell, charging him with embezzlement. The complainant is the at- torney engaged for Gormully & Jeftery com- pany, bicycle manufacturers of Chicago. Late last night Daxon was released on a bond of $2,000 to guarantee his appearance this morning. Tho complainant in ths case charges that Daxon embezzled in the neighbornood of $1,200 to $1,300, but says he is unable to glve the exdct amount which it Is alleged has been embezzled, as he has not as yet been able to examine the books of Daxon In addition to this the company alleges that Daxon is indebted to it in the sum of $6,500 or $6,700, which will make the total in which Daxon is in arrears in the neighbor- hood of $8,000. Daxon has been the agent In this city for the Gormully & Jeffery company bicycles for several years. Attorney Charlion, who rep- resents the company, says Daxon is indebtea to the firm in a considsrable sum, but the account had been allowed to run until a few days ago, when it was discovered that he had given chattle mortgages for his entire property, including a portion of the stock which he had received from the firm. On last Friday these mortgages were foreciosea and Daxon's store shut up. The mortgagees were Rector & Whilhelmy of this city, who held a mortgage for $1,500, and Andrae & Son of Milwaukee, who held a mortgage for 2,700. Of the portion of the debt, $6500, D:xon has turned in accounts regularly to the firm but of the §1,200 which he is charged with em- bezzling it is said that he has not pursued the same plan. It is charged that he has de celved the firm regarding Lis sales and that they knew nothing of his financial condition until he had glven chattel mortgages to the firm, who finally foreclosed on the prop:rty. Before causing the arrest of Daxon it is said that a formal demand was made upon him to either liguidate the debt or to turn over to the firm the notes and money which he had recelved in exchange for the firm's bicycles which he had fold. Much of the stock was sold on the installment plan and Daxon held many notes. It is alleged that Daxon refused to accede to the proposition and that thereupon the complaint charzing him with embezzlement was filed before Jus- tice Cockrell. Daxon was arrested last night and was brought immediately before Justics Cockrell. About 11 o'clock he succeeded In obtaining a bond, which had been sct at $2 000, and was Da For TROUN DR EVERYBODY, lieations Growing Out of n Board Bill and a Big Draft, Theodore Hegemann, a commission mer- chant, was arrested last night by Detective Hudson on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. The complainant in the case is Mrs Fred Wirth of the City hotel, although from all accounts Mrs. Wirth was not out a cent. The case, however, is a complicated one and' will need the assistance of several attorneys to unravel. Hegemann was later in the night released under bonds, and left the police station with threats of beginning damage suits, not only against the complainant, but also against the arrest- ing officer. Fred Wirth runs the City hotel, and among his lodgers has been a man named Theodore Johnson, who has been boarding at the hotel for the last five weeks. Johnson has run up big debts at the hotel, as he has spent money like water, but he has always liquidated them as soon as he recelved money from his home in the old country, where he scemed to have a perennial spring of coin. During the last week or two he accumu- lated a debt of $400, which he promised to pay as soon as he received another remit- tance from his home. The remittance in the sum of something over $700 arrived yes- terday in the shape of a draft on a New York bank. As soon as Johnson announced that the re- mittance arrived Wirth made a proposition to him that he turn over the draft to him, saying that he would cash it, and after tak- ing out the debt Johnson owed would return the remainder to him. Jobnson, however, turned the draft over to Hegemann, who was a countryman of his. Wirth and his wife immediately jumped to the conclusion that Johnson was trying to defraud them at the instigation of Hegemann and caused the ar- rest of Hegemann on the charge of obtain- ing money under false pretens They also hired two constables to guard Johnson, who was remeved to his room in intoxicated condition, These constables claimed that they fad also arrested Johnson on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses, although they did not remove him to_the police station. When Hagemann was released from custody he was much enraged. He said that Johnson had come to him with the request that he help him cash the draft, as he knew no one in the city. He stated that he had no inten- tion of instigating Johnson to beat his bill, and that the Wirths simply feared ®hat they would not get the entire amount of the check. He threatened to sue them for dam- ages and also Detective Hudson, who placed him under arrest. Later in the evening the matter was dis- cussed by people about the hotel, one of whom was an old soldier named J. W. Saw- hill. In the warmth of the argument Saw- hill put his fist through a pane of glass in the door, severing an artery in his hand. He was arrested on the charge of being drunk and maliciously destroying property, IMPORTANT MEE Ninth Ward Citizens Invited to Meet Wednesday Night.
